~Zara Todd's POV~
The car drives us to the old building of the city in which it is written Library of Woods.
I don't quite understand the name but I love the way it is written in the bold and large letters.
"You have never been here, right?" he asks me. I simply nod my head.
"Don't worry. I will help you all the locations. If you have any problem, you can just run to me. I will help you with everything," he smiles as he says that and grabs my hand and leads me inside.
I really can't depict what's going on his heart. Xavier's heart is clear towards me. He doesn't like me appearing the the sights of his. He isn't find of me and I can see that clearly in his eyes but of Asher?
His habits are quite hard to read. I can't just portray what he means to say all the time and what his actions illustrates.
"You see this library is really huge and you can find any book and every book over here. I know school's library is huge but the main p
~Zara Todd's POV~God damn! I know this isn't Asher's writing. He actually wasn't with me, then who the help was it?Suddenly I started getting weird vibes around me. Is there really a ghost around me? Why do I feel like I am being hunted and watched over?I quickly rush to the bed and cover myself with thick duvet. The night is actually chilly and as silent as the dead graveyard. So, whole night my heart thumps like hell in fear and I cant even get out of my bed in any way.I don't know when did I even get asleep. When I wake in the morning, it is already half past six.God damn! I need to have breakfast soon as I have to be in school by eight am.I quickly rush towards the bathroom for my daily morning rituals."Should I bath or not?" I keep on thinking about it. I took a bath last day, so I don't want to hurt my skin one more time and also, I don't want to be late for the classes.I just look at the bathroom stuf
~Zara Todd's POV~ "Y...o...u," I can't help but panic seeing him right behind me. "What are you doing over here?" I say more like a whisper and he deadpans me with his green orbs. Without speaking anything, he walks towards the mirror and adjusts his bow tie in his neck. "Why the hell are you dressed like that? It's a groom's dress," I say as I manage to walk to him with such a heavy flares of the gown. Asher really is a crazy guy. I mean why would he dare to do something so weird and strange in front of the whole world. "I was just trying. I'm sure that monster wouldn't look as gorgeous and as handsome as me you see. He lags behind in beauty and charms in front of me," he says as he stands in front of me with a tuxedo. Honestly, I had not expected that he would look completely different in tuxedo. I mean it changed his whole look making him look more matured, decent and quite wise. I can't stop but gaze at his beautifu
~Zara Todd's POV~I don't dare to lie in front of her. My hands automatically tremble in front of her and she increases her voice automatically when she asks and that makes me even more worse."So, it is true, isn't it? He fight with somebody, didn't he?" she asks me one more time and I flinch when her voice hits on the skin of my ear."Yeah but he isn't the one responsible for this. I mean they wanted to kill me and he saved me from them," I say and she suddenly turns her head to me and her face seems to be quite relaxed than before. "He saved you?" she asks. I just nod my head and she looks as shocked as I was when he came back to save me."I have never seen Xavier saving someone. It's been so long that he has ever cared about anyone. I know it's weird to say but you are great choice and I don't regret for having you as his wife," she says like she is so much glad on her decision.But she is wrong. Ri
~Zara Todd's POV~It's been another day and I don't see Xavier in the school today as well. We're getting married tomorrow but there isn't even a rehearsal of our wedding together.Maybe that is never a wedding as well. We don't want both of us, then why would it be wedding after all?I don't know but why the hell am I do much concerned about the wedding? I do I feel like it should be at least special and should be at least memorable for a lifetime but that's for a good couple to go not for a strangers who hate each other.It's almost six O'clock in the evening and someone knocks in the door."Come in!" I say and Mrs. Jones walks in through the room."Young lady, we have your wedding gown brought in. Would you like to try it for a bit?" she asks me."Should I?" I ask."Yes, you must. So that there won't be any problem tomorrow at the event and we can think of solutions in time," she says with her smile which s
~Zara Todd's POV~"Oh! It's you. I thought it was someone else," I breathe out in relief and try to look back at him but he holds my shoulder with both his hands firmly."Don't look back. Just look front and don't turn your head to me," he says as he presses his hands like he is actually torturing me with his touch.Then he just turns me without letting me to see his face towards the same way, I came from."Now, return back and don't come over here. Trust me if you look back or if you turn back you will realise that I am the worst person in the whole world. I think you don't want to experience that, do you?" he says.My eyes flutter and I feel quite weird. Honestly, I am not even scared of him much as people say about him and that might be because I had been together with him all the long but still there are some fear in me when he comes closer to me."Walk back," he orders one more time but I don't feel like taking a step before askin
~Third person's POV~"And the groom enters," the microphone announces with a loud sound and all of the people they keep on staring at the entrance door to watch the groom.There are all the members of the political parties that Xavier's new dad belong to and the business partners of his mom exactly like on Zara's birthday party.The faces of the guest are quite similar as they are the only important persons in their eyes.It's been quite a minute that they have been looking at the door but there seems no entrance of groom at all.And when he doesn't appear in time, there starts a gossip among the guest.The groom might have ran away!He might have hated this marriage or he might have hated the bride more. She isn't of the class, you see!He might have ran away, I heard that her son is quite out of the mind. His instruments in head doesn't work.Or maybe he hates his own mom!These are some of the rumours that have b
~Zara Todd's POV~"So, Mr. Xavier Dawson! Will you take miss Zara Todd as your lawfully wedded wife and help her doing all the things for her and never leaving her hands in worries and in anxiety and always be together with her on every steps of her life. Can you do this?"While the pastor is saying this, I can see Xavier walking few steps back. I am just afraid right now. I don't know what's happening to me but I am just so scared that he might leave me alone in this and leave me ashamed right in front of everyone.It's not a new thing for a guy like him to do things like that.God damn! Xavier please don't do something stupid like this. Please not right now. I am going to tolerate all of your stupid scolds but please I don't want to get ashamed in front of so many people.I am literally praying to God clutching the bouquet I'm holding in my hands so firmly with my eyes closed.I can't take this same and I can't just
~Zara Todd's POV~What the hell did happened just now? Did he just kissed me one more time?You're not a fool, Zara. Of course he kissed me right now.My whole body goes numb and weak on my knees and I feel like I can't hold my body anymore.Trust me, if he wasn't holding me on my waist, people would be discerning me, how easily I am being melted with his actions. I would be the laughing stock in front of all of them.He parts our lips but my eyes are still closed and his face is just some centimetres away from me. I can feel his hot breaths against my skin and his another hand still behind my head."Open your eyes, Zara. You love Asher don't you?" he asks.My eyes shut open all of a sudden. What did he say just now? Did he take Asher's name right now?I couldn't help but stare back at his eyes which are quite mad right now."I am never letting Asher to win over me. I have to win and Asher will never ha
