Marked by the BEAST

Aisha immediately stood up as she noticed her husband stepping down the stairs well-dressed and in a hurry,

"Where are you going?" she asked as she got near him.

"Why the hell do you care where I’m going, huh?! Mind your own business!" coldness and anger is visible as he spoke those words.

"I just want to know what time you'll get home," Aisha responded.

Without any second thought he came closer to her, holding her chin carelessly. "You want to know where, huh? To fuck other women; you don't need to know what time I'll be back. Do you understand me, woman?" he shouted and released his wife from his grip.

Aisha can still feel how tight his grip on her chin; she is indeed hurt by what he does but the woman wasn’t doing anything; for she was taunt by the hope of changing him. Duke’s hand was long gone but she can still feel the pain on her face, when Aisha released herself from the reverie, she stumbled near the sofa as her tears continued to stream on her pinkish cheeks.

"What kind of drama is that? Oh, please save that for yourself, I don’t need that shit!" He hissed

"Aren't you tired? Is this how you want us to live? When will you change?" she said, between her tears, “When will you accept me as your Luna? How long do I need to wait, Duke?”

His chin tightened upon hearing her words. He immediately took a couple of steps and abruptly pulled her upright while holding her hair, "You have no right to question me like that! You don't own me nor my life! I can do whatever I want to do, and me? Accepting you as my Luna? As far as I can remember, I made it clear to you before you fucking ruin my life, you will never be one, not in a lifetime!"

"You're already married, Duke! We had already been united with the scared blood of the Holy moon goddess!" Aisha shouted in response that made him rage.

"Shut up, bitch!" He shouted and slapped his wife, "We’re married, huh?! Do you think you can change it overnight?! Nothing will ever change, Aisha, I'm still Duke Collin and you are Aisha Elara Kinsley- Collin my useless, feeble and desperate wife! We're just married by that foolish blood, and you're just carrying my surname but you will never have my heart, mind and soul! I will never love you! I will repeatedly reject you, until you lost your life!"

After he said that he let the woman go and quickly left the house.

He treated Aisha like trash, a nobody since the day they got united and sealed by the moon goddess. Duke was always mad and paid no respect nor cared about what Aisha felt. The emotional pain and damage even turn into physical pain; Duke hates to hear an answer from Luna.

Aisha loves him,

However, the man doesn’t love her as she does.

He despised his wife.

He loathed her

He makes sure to make her life a living hell throughout their marriage.

The deadly combination of emotional and physical damage almost breaks her, the vast emotion of his anger lashing her.

He wants her out of his life—for good.

He sees his wife—his own Luna, as desperate and a life wrecker.

However; it wasn’t enough to move Aisha; even though the pain was damaging, she didn’t think of leaving him; the marvelous gift of love overflowed on her that made it more bearable for her; to endure the cheating, hurtful words, physical pain, emotional wrecking, for she was holding to the possibility of Duke’s change.

But destiny has its tricks on playing between her love for him; unexpected things happen that make her give up the love she was holding for years. At that moment, she promised to get what was rightfully hers; her revenge.
