Chapter 2

  • Ava's POV
  • "You liar!I was just some sort of toy to you that you can control. I was so stupid to call you my lover.
  • I realized how worthless you are and I won't go back to my vomit" I said and he coughs.
  • ."I wasn't in my right sense at that time. It was all Lisa's doing, she drugged me"
  • Flashback
  • The limousine halted to a stop, the chauffeur opened the door and I ran to the door excitedly. I turned the key into the latch and barged into the house.
  • Red and white balloons are decorated everywhere, it was Valentine's day and I was so excited to celebrate it with him. We would play video games, cook together, and dance to romantic music as we do every Valentine.
  • But this year Valentine was different and a little too cold for a romantic day. My Romeo was not in the room or the library so I decided to check in the kitchen. There were few murmurs in the kitchen. I decided to eavesdrop when I saw my best friend on his lap holding a glass of wine.
  • "Break up with her already, She is an obstacle between us," Lisa said.
  • "Forget about her, Iur relationship is only a dare to make love with her but since she disagreed I'm only after her money" They laughed and clinked glasses.
  • I clutched the red teddy I bought to control my fuming anger. I fell at the view of Zach kissing her passionately. I couldn't barge in because I was scared of myself, I didn't want to murder again.
  • I staggered towards the door and boarded a taxi, with pearls trickling from my eye.
  • End of flashback
  • "Forgive me, love, it was all her plan to separate us," He said
  • "She is with your child and I can no longer get involved with you. Leave or I will call the cops" I threatened, he blew a kiss and walked out.
  • "Rascal" I muttered and slammed the door. The doorbell rang and I flung the door open.
  • "What do you want?!" I yelled. I faked a smile immediately after I saw Lucas's worried face.
  • "Is anything wrong?" He questioned with furrowed brows.
  • "Nothing is wrong. Come inside, you look tired" I opened the door widely and he slumped into the chair, exhausted.
  • "Why are balloons here? Did that scoundrel come here?" He fumed with a balled fist as he strode to the door.
  • "You are not leaving" I obstructed his way, he groaned and sat on the sofa.
  • "I'm making shellfish for dinner and I need a little help in the kitchen" I grabbed the bag of seafood and sniffed it. Lucas strode to his room angrily and slammed the door.
  • "Drama king, you can't get angry at big sister forever" I yelled and smiled sheepishly at the bag of seafood.
  • My phone rang and the caller ID was Mr. Chris.
  • I received the call and sighted Lucas who came out from his room. He strode to the kitchen after he grabbed the bag of seafood from me.
  • "Hi, Chris. Is your mum getting better?"
  • "Mum is getting better and she will be discharged tomorrow. May I resume work next week?" He cooed over the phone.
  • "Sure. My regards to her"
  • "Food has been requested in a wedding and the ceremony will start tomorrow "
  • "Send me the address. I will personally coordinate the cook"
  • "Goodnight ma"
  • "Goodnight" I strode to the dining room and smiled as shellfish was dished on the table.
  • I licked my lips and reached for a dish. Lucas strode to the library as usual before going to bed, while I watched a romantic movie after having dinner.
  • ****
  • I chirped good morning to Lucas and strode out of the apartment in a blue blouse and skirt that matches my heels.
  • I drove to the address and sighted a big white villa that was decorated with flowers with children playing with firecrackers and the water from the fountain. I was directed inside the villa by a lady who addressed herself as the groom's sister.
  • The villa was big and spacious and was not filled with many guests. It was decorated with black and pink flowers which are unusual.
  • "The wedding will begin in a short while, you are welcome also as a guest. Feel free to call me when you need anything, I'm just a meter away " She didn't say her name, but walked away hurriedly and went to discuss with some group of people in luxury clothes.
  • I fixed my gaze at a lady who had her brown hair fall on her shoulder. Her back was faced at me, she looked exactly like Lisa and chatted with an old man happily. She turned to me and appeared to be Lisa.
  • My instincts were right, she had a fake smile on her face and walked to me proudly. She hugged me and chuckled
  • "Finally, you are over that naughty boyfriend of yours. I hope you've stopped crying over him because you don't matter to him. You are just a piece of trash.."
  • I interrupted her statement before she finished by twisting her arm backward. Everyone was busy with the decorations and didn't hear her yelp.
  • "You are only breathing because I decided not to end your life that very day I discovered who you were. Don't try to act smart with me, I can break your arms and legs" I released her, she walked away hurriedly and held the arm I twisted in pain.
  • "Ma'am would you like a drink?" A waiter said with a tray of a glass of wine. I grabbed two glasses and gulped the
  • wine.
  • I sighted the green-eyed man whose hand was draped over a young lady's shoulder. He staggered and grabbed the other glass of wine from the waiter.
  • "Dyrus, you drank too much. I think you should go and rest" The lady said, he nodded and staggered away with his cloth stinking of alcohol.
  • With the sudden urge to pee and my head spinning, I walked to a young boy who was playing with balloons.
  • "Hey cutie, can you show me the way to the restroom?" He nodded and replied,
  • "Walk to the staircase and go to the third room by the left"
  • "Thank you"
  • "2,3..no 1,3" I counted the doors which were confusing when counting.
  • I opened the door of a room, the room was big and I dashed to the inner room in the room.
  • I heaved a sigh in relief as I didn't pee on myself. I walked outside of the bathroom and sighted Dyrus whose shirt was unbuttoned as he stared at me lustfully with his gorgeous green eyes.
  • "Dyrus?" I said at the view of triple Dyrus, he pulled me closer to himself and slammed his lips on mine.
  • ****
  • I woke up with a slight headache, a mighty arm was draped over my waist and my legs cuddled legs.
  • I froze and stared with wide eyes at my naked body. I sprang up immediately I recovered where I was and why I was naked.
  • My head ached after I remembered what happened between me and Dyrus. He was still asleep and his body was covered with the duvet, while my body was exposed to the room. I removed the duvet off his body since he was in his pants already and wrapped it below my shoulders.
  • My clothes and underwear were of no use because they were ripped and smelled of his cologne. I dashed to the bathroom and took a shower that washed off his cologne from my body. I changed to his shirt that didn't smell of cologne.
  • Everywhere became dark, and everything in the room disappeared A man appeared in a black hoodie, he resembled the dark Jinn with the dark circle on his hand.
  • "Your wish had been granted, now it's time for your pay" He echoed."Go to the altar and get married." He disappeared in front of the darkness.
  • The room changed suddenly to a dressing room. A woman in her forties standing beside the dressing table as if she was waiting for me to appear.
  • "No need to panic princess, you are to only perform the wedding ritual with my son" She smiled.
  • "Son?" Everything seemed weird, I had my bath and didn't transform into a mermaid and the woman who wants me to get married to her son knows that I'm a princess.
  • The maids added well-garnished turmeric mixed with coconut and almond oil to the water I bath in.
  • "Perfect," The woman said after she placed the red veil on my head. I was dressed in a black wedding gown with a few makeups on my face.
  • The wedding altar was filled with murmurs until I walked into the wedding altar. The tension reduced and the ceremony began with the priest lighting the candles. Don was dressed in a black suit and rubbed his hand together.
  • "Do you accept to be Don's wife? Do you agree that is only death that will separate you both?" The priest said
  • "Yes," I sighed, Don, inserted the ring in my finger and tapped his fingers as applauds filled the room.
  • "The dress fits you perfectly Lisa, but I am still eager to see your face then we can discuss the baby's name later" Don whispered with a smile plastered on his face.
  • He is eager to see Lisa as his bride, but I turned out to be his new bride who just had a fling with his look-alike.
  • This happened because of Lisa. I drank the wine and ended up in bed with Dyrus, and I'm married to a gentleman who isn't aware of his runaway bride. She is the main cause of this unlucky event.
  • "Lisa, you are to walk on the flowers" Don held my arm as we walked past the flowers. There were murmurs instead of applause, I turned back and the flowers appeared black.
  • "She made the flowers turn black" The guests whispered at the view of the black flowers.
  • "We waited for hours for the bride to arrive and the flowers turned black suddenly"
  • " This is a bad omen"
  • "It means this wedding is bad luck They whispered.
  • "Lisa, you don't need to worry about anything. Go to your room and rest, you must be exhausted" Don walked away and the guests reduced slowly as I strode to the staircase anxiously.
