The marriage

"Today is the last night before my marriage to Nelson....." I can't believe I am getting married tomorrow morning. This is my fate and I have to accept it, just then my dad walked into my room.

"Melissa you know you don't have to be sad, you are getting married to a prince and he'll take very good care of you." He couldn't look at me while talking to me because the sadness was allover my face. How can he expect me to be calm about getting married to a monster.

"You expect me to be happy about my marriage to a monster?" He looked up this time and looked like a father that has failed his daughter.

"No Melissa he is not a monster." I can not believe my dad will lie about prince Nelson just to make me marry him.

"Dad stop! Stop trying to make me feel good about this marriage." I could not stop the tears anymore. I have heard a lot of stories about how those werewolves look like and what they can do, they are heartless and dangerous to live with. "Just maybe if mom was alive all thus won't happen." Immediately my dad raised Gus head and looked at me.

"Melissa why did you have to bring up your late mom in this conversation?" He looked at me with his eyes opened like his eyeballs were about to fall out if the socket. "Remember you agreed to marry him, you weren't forced." Tears welled down my eyes the moment I heard this. As if I had a choice.

"Do you think I had a choice, even if I had refused will you reason with me?" I couldn't hide how angry and sad I was about the marriage. My dad couldn't look at me in the face because he felt he has failed me as a father.

"The wedding is tomorrow you don't have any other choice, you have to start getting prepared." He had to sound like he didn't care if he was sad about my marriage.

"Yes ever since my mom died I have never had a choice but to do whatever you and Elena ask me to do." My dad was standing and about to leave my room when he heard what I saud. He turned and looked at me. He sighed and left my room without uttering a word. I watched him leave my room while tears welled down my eyes.

I stood up from my bed and left my too., I walked to the sitting room where I saw everyone looking really excited about the wedding, I guess I am the only one scared about this marriage. I cannot believe I am getting married to a werewolf. I headed back to my room and sat looking scared and anxious about the wedding.

"Melissa these are the stylists that will style you for your wedding today." She looked so excited about marrying me to the werewolf prince. To her it felt like everything worked out as planned.

"You look so happy." Her smile melted for some seconds before she busted into laughter. I know this is what she has always wanted, she figured out a way not tonoet her daughter marry the werewolf prince, but I don't have a mother that will help me out of this dangerous marriage.

"Do you expect me to be sad?" She laughed nonstop. Obviously she was laughing to make ne feel bad. I stared at her angrily I wish her daughter was the one getting married not me, I would have loved to watch her cry.

"You have to leave now, I need to prepare for my wedding." She left my room still laughing. The stylists prepared me so beautifully. I looked really pretty like never before, the only thing missing was my smile. I just cannot bring myself to be happy about my marriage to a werewolf prince. I wonder what he looks like.

"The car is ready, we have to leave now." The chauffeur came to inform me. I stood up and headed outside. When i was about to enter the car I turned back and looked at my house. I had Flashbacks of everything I have been through in the house, both the good and bad, when I was about to turn to the car I sighted my dad looking at me from upstairs.

"You don't need to look sad, remember she is getting married to a prince." My dad glared at her, and she shut her mouth. The moment I sighted her beside my dad, I turned and entered the car. They drove me to the church. When we got to the church I was so scared of coming out of the car. This is the final stage, if I get out of this car I'll go into the church and marry prince Nelson.

"Pls you need to come out now." The voice of the chauffeur brought me back to face reality. I stood up and came out of the car. My dad also came out from his car and escorted me into the church. As I walked in it felt like a nightmare I need to wake up from. I could hear the sound of prince Nelson shoes while he walked in. Then I realized I wasn't dreaming.

"Let the groom hold the hands of the bride." The pastor voice shocked me. I have never seen prince Nelson, I wonder what he looks like, since i was a child, i was told that werewolves are all ferocious species and would bite off human necks in one bite.

I kept my head down. I thought the hands that will hold me must be a hairy ugly hand, but what i didn't expect is that the hands are going to be white and slender, were prettier than any hands i have ever seen. Then I summoned courage and looked at his face. I couldn't believe my eyes. Am I now dreaming?
