Visit His Bride

Peace. Peace was what I wanted before some strange girl came to ruin everything. She has been crying for some minutes now and it was ruining my peaceful moment. I could bear with her crying but when she screamed...

"I hate everyone!"

Argh! My ear! Fuck!

"Can you shut up please?" I asked. She kept mute for some seconds. I thought she vanished into thin air. Do I have super powers? If I have, I'd use to wipe my family out of existence.

The girl hates everyone but I hate my life. I just received a shocking news from my father this morning before he left the house.

I'll be getting married soon, to a girl from a respectable family. I sigh and leaned my back on the huge tree. I haven't heard anything from the girl for some minutes. Did she really disappear?

I stared over my shoulder and I heard her soft whimpers. She's still crying. Oh great!

"Didn't she have a house to cry in? Why the heck is she disturbing my peace?" I thought.

I have a problem called 'not caring for people'. It's rare but I've been like this for a long time. Ever since my mother died when I was five, I didn't care about anyone. My brother, my father, I didn't care for them at all. Instead, they made my life a living hell. I didn't only get this worse feeling from them, I also got it from people around the Green mansion, the school, Every. Fucking. Place.

I should probably learn to be caring. I'll be married soon. I grunted and sprung up, beating the dust off my robe.

Slowly, I turned to approach the girl but she was no where to be found. Too bad, she left already. I tried my best. I sighted a piece of glass stained with blood. Did she try to commit suicide?

I walked back home. I know my father would have been at home by now. He must have made arrangements with the lady I'm going to get married to.

I should curse her for being born. I'm going to make her life a living hell. If it was just one of them, she would have been made to be Zach's wife while I'm able to get married to anyone.

Even though I have no one I love. Love?

Stupidest word in the world.

I walked pass the mansion gate and strolled to the entrance door. It's a very big mansion. Every girl's dream is to be in this mansion but it's only for the few.

"Welcome back home master" the door guard said to me as he pulled the door wide open. I raised my eyebrows and walked in without saying anything in reply.

I rushed down the little stairs and was heading to the main stairs which lead to the rooms. I heard resounding footsteps behind me.

"Look who is here. My long lost brother"

I clenched my fist when I heard that annoying voice. I didn't need anyone to tell me who it was.

I slowly turned and gaze at him. Yes, Zachary. He's the one.

"What do you want?"

"I'm just coming from the bar" he smiled. Fuck! I hate his smile. The same stupid smile that he uses to attract girls to himself. I should have killed him when I have the chance.

"Great" I said and turned away.

"You don't want to hear today's rumour?" He asked.

Today's rumour! I have no idea what the people are saying about me today. Every day for a particular rumour and it's always about me.

I stopped immediately I heard that. Should I even bother to ask what the rumour is? I'll get it anyway from another source.

"You know your wedding is coming up soon. You'll also be crowned Alpha. You should stop going to the bar Zach and focus on your marriage" I mouthed, staring at him over my shoulder.

"I know how much you want that Alpha position but it belongs to me. Only I, deserve to be Alpha"

I angrily clenched my fist and turned to stare at his ugly but cute face.

"That's not for you to decide"

"It belongs to me and only me. Don't forget that Farewell brother" he smiled and adjusted his robe. My eyes didn't drift from him till he disappear into thin air. I hate him. I hate him so much. I just wish to go to my room and pray to the moon goddess to make my family disappear.

I was heading to the staircase again when I heard my name.

Argh! Why didn't I leave sooner?

"Landon!"

"Yes father" I turned to him. I really want to be a good son to him. I am a fucking good son to him but he can't see it. All he sees is Zachary because he's the youngest.

"You need to help your brother prepare for his marriage. It's going to be few days after the Red Moon Academy's graduation"

"And why do I have to do that father?"

"Because you are his brother. You'll send some gifts to McConnell's family and her wedding dress designer. I'll have them prepare it as soon as possible" he said and tapped my shoulder, after which he walked away.

Why do I have to do this? What are the guards for? This was another reason why I wish my family should disappear.

I went to my room and threw belt on the bed. I was unbuttoning my robe, wanting to head to the bathroom for a long shower.

Imogen was at the door. I could perceive her scent from my room.

"Leave Imogen!" I yelled even before she knock the door.

"I came to congratulate you. Don't be a dick!" She yelled.

"I don't need your congratulations"

"Of course, you'll need it. I wonder which of them you're getting married to. I wish you get married to my friend, Ivy. She's nice and very beautiful. Her step sister is very arrogant and... argh! Wicked. You can't believe what she did to..."

"Imogen! Shut up! Please!" I begged with tears in my eyes.

Imogen is one person you won't want to argue with. She's a blabbermouth. I'm hundred percent certain that she can talk from now till tomorrow without getting tired. But she's my good sister and..yes, she tells me all of the rumour she hears at the bar. She's my good source of information.

I walked to the door bare chested and opened it.

"You should find a husband and get married soon"

"Oh please. I'm just 19" she said and flung her hair to the back shyly.

"What about your friends? What did you call her name? Ivy? Isn't she 19?" I asked. I saw the embarrassed look on her face. I laid my hands on her shoulders.

"When I get married, I'll find a perfect man for you. Someone better than me, better than Zach and also better than dad"

"Thanks Landon" she smiled. At least, there's one family member I don't wish to disappear.

"Now, leave, your presence is making me sick!" I said and slammed the door on her face.

"That was rude!" She yelled.

"Leave!" I yelled and found my way to the bathroom. The water was warm and very soothing to my skin. The only thing that could make me relaxed.

.

While having dinner with father, Zach and Imogen, they kept talking about Zach's marriage. For some reason, I wish I could return back to the tree. Hearing the girl from earlier cry is much more better than me listening to their unfavorable discussion.

"The designer will be here tomorrow. Landon will take her to your bride to be house to get the measurements of her wedding dress"

"I'll go with Landon" Imogen said. I didn't even mutter any word. I could say no also. Zach wore a mocking smile and turned to father.

"His bride should also get measured. You know... Just Incase. Their wedding is after mine"

"I know you're very smart, son. Landon, make sure the designer gets the two of them measurements"

"Sure father" was the word that escape from my lips. I'll be seeing my bride tomorrow. I have no idea how she looks like or what she looks like.

"Argh! Seem like you'll have to get married to Chloe. Tsk, tsk, tsk" Imogen shook her head as if she pities me.

I don't want anyone's pity, not even hers.

"What about Chloe?"

"Did you not hear me when I said she's a pussy!"

"Imogen! Your words" dad warned her.

"Sorry father. My bad" she rolled her eyes and faced me.

"Well, some pussy can be good" I said. I had no idea why that came out from my mouth. Dad didn't even warn me about my words. He just shot me a hard glare and I shot back at him.

"You'll see her tomorrow and you'll know what I'm talking about. She's the opposite of Ivy" Imogen concluded.

"Whatever" I whispered. I should even see Chloe. The girl I wish to make her life miserable once I get married to her. Will she deserve it or not?

"Good night" I said and pushed my chair backwards. I sprung up and walked away, heading to my room. I should get some sleep since I'll be going over to my in-laws house tomorrow.

I was trying to picture her face in my head. Chloe McConnell. Seem like I've seen her before but can't remember where. Perhaps in school, we have a lot of Chloes. One of them even has an affair with Zachary.

I laughed at myself. Will I be able to become a husband material?

There are two things one can never imagine.

Your parents having sex and you getting married. Jeez! I grabbed my pillow and screamed into it.
