"No one ever told me about a pact…"
APOV
I wanted answers out of this man that I hated so much, and until I got them I would just go along with whatever he had planned. I'm so going to play him! Here comes my innocent act!
"I'm so confused! Why do people never tell me anything?!"I started crying for real.
Lucius pulled me into his lap and hugged me while he nuzzled my neck. I let him comfort me. Maybe he wasn't as big as a jerk as I thought he was. "Antanasia…" he sighed into my neck.
I leaned my head against his. "Just tell me about it please." I whispered. "okay." He murmured while wiping one of my tears with his thumb.
"Well, before we were born are families were about to start a war against each other and they didn't want that to happen. So, when we were born they had a betrothal ceremony for us."He paused and nipped at my neck with his fangs. I jumped a little in his lap, but he just did it again, and then let out a small chuckle. I was not expecting that. So much for me thinking he wasn't an arrogant jerk .I leaned away from him but he pulled me right back, and continued speaking.
"They signed a piece of paper saying that we were to be married when you turned eight-teen." He paused again and smiled against my neck. "So, basically the point of the story is, you're mine." He pulled me against his chest harder. I struggled to get out of his arms but he didn't let me. "Stop Antanasia." He ordered.
I couldn't take this anymore. I started yelling, "No, I'm not going to marry you. You're such a horrible person. I mean really, you don't even know me how can you be so sure that you even want to marry me. The last time we saw each other was four years ago, but it's not like we were even frien-" He cut me off. "Stop it. You are going to honor the pact. You will marry me. And you will act happy about it." He turned me on his lap so I was facing him, "Now, you need to get you ready for dinner, I will show you to your room for the time being." He kissed my lips quickly then got up with me still in his hands and carried me up the massive stair case bridal style.
I squirmed but he just looked down and chuckled, as we walked through hallways.
"I hate you." I said with as much venom in my voice as I could manage.
He looked down and smiled, "You'll learn to love me." He said matter-of-factly as we reached a door on the second floor.
