Chapter Ten
First Day Of Marriage

I wake up seeing myself in the arms of Thayer in bed; I jump up seeing myself still in the wedding dress. I sighed with relief and looked down at Thayer. He was sleeping peacefully right beside me as I watched him sleeping.

I felt a bit stalkerish at that moment but it felt nice watching him but I got back to my senses and walked to our on-suite bathroom. The bathroom was huge! It was bigger than my room, the attic, in my American house with Derek and Helen.

When I walked to the walk in closet I checked where all my clothes were, like my jeans and comfy tops but nothing was there. Not even tops or pants. It was all dresses and just dresses. I looked through mostly all of them and wore the most casual one, the white summer dress.

Well, it was summer in Romania, so why not wear a summer dress? I felt an arm wrapped around my waist, slowly pulling me closer to a body. I felt someone's chin making it comfortable in near my ear, while I felt him breathing on my neck.

"Good morning, honey" I heard him whisper. I slowly turned around looking up at his face, it looked so fresh and so handsome. "You kind of dosed off yesterday during the party" He smiled.

My eyes widened, when did I fall asleep? "Don't worry, you dozed off when everyone left" He smiled. "You slowly fell asleep in my arms" He looked at me as if he enjoyed it.

I slowly pull myself away from him and walked to my dressing table and put some simple earrings on and see him slowly walking behind me in new set of clothes. He wore a black shirt with blue jeans. He places his arms on my arms and rubs it.

I jumped up and turned to Thayer, "Look, I'm very sorry but I don't think I'm ready to be in this sort of part of a marriage yet" I said looking a bit confused if I just said something understandable.

"What?" He frowned with confusion. I remembered what I just said and realised it doesn't make much sense.

"What I'm trying to say is, I can't be in love with you right now at this moment – still, you're a stranger to me" I explained. "For heaven sake, I don't even know why I'm married to in the first place – and I defiantly know that the marriage isn't going to work out… what didn't I think about this before?" I asked myself.

Oh great, now he's going to be heart broken. What am I going to do? He's going to make my life miserable. "So you're saying you want a divorce?" He asked in shocked. "We just got married yesterday" He complained.

"No, I don't want the divorce… not yet I guess. I just… I'm not sure about this relationship we have… I want to take things slow" I clarified.

"So, what? We're married but we see each other as friends?" He asked, looking more confused.

"I guess – hey, maybe that I will fall for you and then we'll be happy together – but for the time being, even though we aren't in love… I'll still courage you, cheer for you, always be there for you and protect you" I said hoping I didn't sound like the slayer.

"So, we are just friends for the time being?" He asked. "But married?"

I nodded, hoping that he'd agree. He sighed with relief and smiles. He starts to chuckle and sits down on the bed. I looked at him with surprise. Did I say something funny? I thought.

"You have no idea how much I wanted this marriage to be ruined. I didn't even want to get married to you – seriously, I was forced to marry you just like my mother made me. You had no idea how hard it was for me to pretend that I loved you…" He explained.

Okay, ouch. That kind of hurts. I frowned at him while he kept explaining. Even though how badly I didn't want to hear the rest, I actually wanted to see what else he didn't want to do.

"Seriously, because it was my destiny to marry a human… I mean a non-Romanian…"

"Wait, human?" I frowned at him. "Then what the hell do you refer yourself as?" I looked at him a bit confused.

"I do that sometimes. I watch a lot of movies that calls females just humans and I got used to calling non-Romanians humans" He explained.

"Okay?" That did not make any sense. And what type of movies calls females humans?

"Anyways, as I was saying. It was my destiny to marry a female that has her own confidence and her make her own choices instead of marrying a female that just wants to do anything that I want to do" He explained.

"It's your destiny to marry a girl who'll do anything she wants?" I arched an eye brow.

"Yes!" He smiles. "The thing is… I'm in the same position as you. I know that you didn't want to marry me and really, I didn't want to marry you either. But just in front of everyone else, let's say we're in love. How's that?" He winked.

"What about the engagement? You seemed like you…" He started to laugh.

"You're very adorable" He stated. It was true, I'm adorable but I don't think he means it the way I'm thinking it. "I didn't really give a damn what type of engagement you have. So, when I gave you a careless one and you ran off. My mother yelled at me and told me to give you the best engagement you'll ever have"

So far. "So, essentially, you don't like me at all" I arched an eye brow.

"Oh, no, no – I like you but not much as a friend. Not as a sexual way either. But mostly like an acquaintance" He smiles.

Okay, I am so going to kick this assholes ass. Before I could move my fist into his face me grabbed my hand looked at me, with his stupid blue eyes.

"Glad that we had this conversation. Cause really, I couldn't even pretend to like you in that way. You had no idea how much it killed me" He smiles. He gets up and leaves the room without any further notice.

Okay, asshole much! I can't believe I married this jerk! Erg! What did I get myself into? I regret this so much! I hope there's still a chance to run away with Nate. Wait, no! He must've got into a college right now, wishing I'd be there getting some random college stuff with him.

I hate my life! I hate being the slayer! I hate being an orphan! I hate being married to THAYER VALERIOUS! I wish he agrees to have a divorce.

Why didn't I even think of this before? Why didn't I think for once of my life, that maybe, maybe, Thayer was also being forced into this marriage just like me?

I'm such an idiot! Now, I have a jerky husband, worse than Ethan for god's sake and surprisingly, I rather be married to ETHAN than Thayer right now. At least, I could kick Ethan's ass.

Not saying I can't kick Thayer's ass, knowing that I can. But he's a prince and I'd get in a lot of trouble if I killed the moron.

To be honest, at least my speech was more thoughtful and tried not to hurt the fella's heart (if he even has one), but no… stupid selfish, stubborn, prince has to be so egotistic.

I started hearing my phone playing the loveliest tune, slowly piano music chanting along the room. I find my phone in my bag on the desk; I looked at the cell and answered it.

"Hello?"

"Hello? Lady Hastings?" I heard a familiar Australian male voice reply. "It's me… Simon Collins. We met each other in the plane two days ago" I heard him speak further.

Simon Collins? How the hell did he get my number? "Yes, how did you…?"

"No time for that. I know that you're the slayer" He said. Holy… how did he know I'm? "Go out to your balcony. I guess you'd be in a big shocker" He said.

I frowned and went to the balcony and opened the door. I looked outside beneath me and I spot beautiful green grass, with stone graved love seats with no back support. "What am I looking for?" I asked, feeling a bit foolish listening to a man I hardly know.

"Look up, idiot" He sighed hopelessly.

He's very sweet, isn't he? I looked up and see a deadly red sky, with dark red clouds, with a horrible siting. Dark big birds flying pass, it was devil bats (vampire pets, very dangerous) and hear from a far distance, female and males screaming in pain. Where the hell am I?

Wait, I know this place! I've seen this place before. And for sure this isn't Romania. It's… the underworld, in other words… hell. I quickly hung up with no words and looked at hell.

I heard someone walk in, "C'mon Evy, no one isn't going to eat without you" Thayer complained walking in. I turn around seeing him, looking a bit shocked. Not because of where we are because I found out.

Without any movement, I asked, "What the fuck are you?"
