A Forbidden Monster

Never in my life could I ever have imagined that I'd be forced to an arranged marriage! Since I was a little girl I always imagined getting married to a man I love with my whole heart, a man who would fight for justice but reality hit me hard because now I have to get married to a man I don't even know!

Am getting married to a wicked and ruthless man rumored to be a monster. When my parents told me about it I laughed my ass out thinking they were joking. I mean a man not even from Dystrya but the second prince of the greatest kingdom of this continent 'Alvania'.

I should be happy that I am getting married into the royal family but a man as cold hearted 'as I've heard' only heavens knows how scary he is. Just thinking about it sends chills down my spine.

"Elaine" mom called when she was done brushing my hair

"Mom, please can we think things true a bit, I can't get married to that man" Elaine complained with tears welling up her eyes

"My dear, you can't go against your father and, it's your wedding day. You will soon start your new life. So please try to smile" her mom consoled. She let out a deep suffocated sighabd looked at the maid who suddenly entered the room

"Greetings to the queen and eldest princess of dystrya! his majesty, has requested your presence at the wedding" the maid reported with her head bowed to show respect

"We will be there" the queen said and led her daughter out of the room

Once they got to the huge decorated hall,Elaine decided to stroll about a bit to welcome the guests and mentally bid the environment she grew up in goodbye before the wedding precision starts.

While walking about she decided to get juice to quench her thirst, but when she reached out to the juice with a maid, she grabbed the glass and hurriedly consumed the liquid not realizing that there was a gentleman who had reached out for it before she could, but didn't get it because she hurriedly took it away

"That was Satisfying" she said and sighed

"Excuse me, your highness but I was about to reach out to that glass before you took it" he said calmly and got her attention

She was about to respond but got tongue tied after seeing the beauty infront of her, His silky long raven hair,  his long lashes, golden coloured eyes that no girl could ever get tired of staring into and his muscular face. He just looked too perfect that Elaine thought she might be imagining things. He looked like a fallen angel of perfection. A face worth drooling over. And at her wedding!

"Hello!" Elaine got pulled out of her trail of thoughts when he snapped his fingers in her face, realeasing her from his hypnotizing spell and she cursed herself inwardly for oogling at a man when she was about to get married.

"Oh, um am sorry, please get him another drink" she apologized and ordered the maid but didn't see the stranger refuse Because she left in a hurry, it took all her resolve not to turn and look at the beauty behind her, to see him even if for the last time ever. The gentleman stayed still, watching Elaine walk away in a hurry

"Who is she?" He asked a man beside him with a cold and emotionless gaze

"She's the eldest princess of Dystrya" the man said and bowed in respect while something flickered in the gentleman's eyes

"Interesting" he said calmly with a smirk

Elaine rushed into the restroom to calm her raging heartbeats

"What the hell!" she cursed and calmed her mind
