It wasn't long before my wedding. One that I have been looking forward to for years even though I don't know my fiancé. Well, not personally, since, as the years have gone by, we have exchanged photos of what we look like.
So, every minute that passes, makes my anxiety grow to finally see the man that through pictures has made me fall in love and so, now I am going to fulfill my dream; to be his wife. For years I followed his triumphs and failures, worked hard to live up to him and at last, I will be his wife."You look beautiful, my dear.""Thank you, Mr. Mayer. I'm glad to have someone by my side." I say excited to have a warm, knowing smile on this special day."Even though both of your parents aren't here, you should smile, this is an amazing day where you are finally going to get to meet and be happy as lord and lady of the pack.""I hope you see it that way. Because seeing that he arrived yesterday and hasn't come to see me, it worries me, could it be that he doesn't like me the way I like him?" The voice telling me that I am not good enough for a big wolf like my future husband, makes me feel bad, but the man who has helped me feel accompanied on this special day, places his hand on my chin and makes me lift my face to see him."I've heard that seeing the fiancé before the wedding is bad luck. That's most likely why he hasn't come here. After all, I imagine he wants to have good luck in his marriage."The butler's response lifts my spirits and I smile just as excited as before because I'm marrying my prince charming, the one the moon chose for me. My perfect man.But, a new doubt arises and this one disturbs my peace and destroys my joy."What if he wishes to marry me?""He must wish it, since he hastened the funeral of the late alpha, to come here.""I would have wished Mr. Baumann to be here." I murmur mournfully "I would have liked him to see me being his daughter-in-law.""He is present in your heart, now, don't think negative thoughts or you will ruin your beautiful makeup and fix that, it will delay your amazing wedding with Mr.""Thank you, Mr. Mayer, for giving me the encouragement I need" I whisper trying to clear my mind of bad thoughts and focus on positive things, such as: marrying my muscular, wealthy, kind, and tender husband.Excitement sweeps over me, and I try hard not to jump for joy. I really feel I am in a fairy tale where I am the princess and he, my Helmut, is my prince with claws."I do it with love, my little one. Now..."Someone knocks on the door and enters without waiting for an answer. His rough appearance and war clothes, with marks all over his body, he appears respectfully greeting both of us. To then hand me a folder that I am unaware of its contents."What is this?" I ask confused not knowing what he wants me to do with a folder minutes before the wedding.The man doesn't respond. It is as if he is mute, so, the butler receives the folder and checks to make sure there is no poison in it or anything that could hurt me. After all, I will be the wife of an awesome alpha."It's the marriage certificate, you just need to sign it" says the man with an accent from a town far away from the capital and I dismiss my thought of him being mute. He's just rude.Confused, I walk over to the butler and confirm that Helmut's elegant signature is there. I take a deep breath because I think it's a bad joke and remembering to be polite, I speak:"What is the meaning of this, do you wish to make a pre-wedding joke, is it some sort of tradition or something?""It's not a joke, Mr. Baumann sent this to you and told me not to leave until I signed it.""Wow, this is really going too far with a joke" I mutter indignantly. "It's not a joke."The seriousness of the man, made me believe it wasn't a joke and that worried me, because where was my dream wedding? Where was my husband beaming? This is nothing to what I was promised."But why are you giving me this if our marriage hasn't even taken place yet? We haven't even been to church," I say trying not to look whimsical, but rational. Because his request lacked that."He gave you a reason with this and that was: be grateful that I accepted my father's order and don't bother with nonsense of a wedding when I don't even want you as a wife."The words wanted to enter my mind, but, reluctant to have him break what I thought of my betrothed, I scolded his envoy."How insolent you are! My fiancé would never say something like that to me. he is polite, kind and not..." i was about to continue with all his virtues, but, the boy smiled as if mocking me "Are you laughing now?""I'm sorry, but, your imagination is very good, is that how you imagine the monster?""Monster?" I ask getting more and more confused."What's the matter, don't you know your husband's alias?" the man asks smiling and I take a deep breath so as not to lose my sanity."I'm not going to argue with you. I want to see him. Maybe if we meet, you can explain this to me.""Things don't work like that.""No, it doesn't work like that" I say showing the marriage certificate "The wedding is about to start and we have to go to the church.""There's not going to be a wedding, you understand that, ma'am""Look, I understand about uncle's death, but how can they see me as his wife if I don't even have a ceremony to confirm it?""That's just what the gentleman wants. So, sign it.""What if I don't?" I ask annoyed and the man pulls out a gun. The kind that is capable of killing even a vampire.Annoyed, I sign the document and hand it to him, feeling angry at the smile I have caused that rude man."Sir wishes not to be associated with you." He says to then leave the room."No, he can't treat me like that.""He also asked me to tell you not to try to approach the main castle. Because then, I would be treated as a stranger and strangers get killed.""But, I'm his wife!" she shouted in frustration."That's why he's going to allow you to use the entire castle he's in and change it as you please in decoration, but that only this castle and the garden, is what you're allowed to use as his wife.""You must be joking.""That was the lord's order, I recommend that you keep this palace and only go to forbidden places, when the lord allows you to.""You can't condemn me to live locked up!" I scream on the verge of madness. For that was what my husband was dragging me to with these prohibitions; insanity."This will be your home, he even sent them to change the name from the sky palace to the cold palace in your honor."God, this is really over the top. I had been viciously swindled in every sense of the word and it had led me to have a husband so miserable that he wouldn't dare tell me all this in front of my face. God, where is the kind and polite man in the pictures? But, I'm not going to let him do this to me, I'm not going to keep quiet."Where in the world is that an honor!" I scream about to turn into a wolf and rip my now husband's head off."She should be grateful, because he wanted to banish her. Now, if not, that's more, I'm out.""This must be a fucking joke" I say walking back and forth in the splendid dress that the eldest Baumann, had sent to create for this day. Refusing to accept that truth, I ran towards the exit, wishing I had an explanation for all this. But it was locked. So, I climb up to the roof, lifting my dress and preparing to fight for what I was promised and not given."Where are you going, miss?""Where do you think I'm going? I'm clearly going to talk to that bastard. I can't just stand here and wait for him to walk all over me like it's nothing."Anger overcomes me and makes climbing the stairs not tire me, even if it is the highest tower of the castle, with my makeup smeared by tears that came out on their own and the veil of my wedding dress about to fall, I spot the man drinking alcohol hugging several women.My anger increases and my body trembles on the verge of transforming, but the butler stands in front of me."Miss, you must calm down...""He has humiliated me, clearly I can't be calm."I have never felt so unwanted as I do now. While it's understandable that he doesn't love me because we've barely seen each other and that his father has died and he's sensitive, none of that justifies his mistreatment."What did I do to him, did I offend him to make him treat me this way?" I ask painfully."He must be confused. Don't make a big deal out of what he's doing. Surely he has an explanation for doing this" says the butler. The euphoric shouting causes me to look towards the source of the noise and my gaze meets his. The music begins to play loudly and everyone jumps up and down excitedly, while Helmut watches me as if he is amused by my state."None of his excuses, can justify how he is acting" I mutter painfully. "Ma'am... maybe he."'Will you continue to wear that ridiculous wedding dress when it's clearly not necessary, wife?' asks Helmut using wolf communication to taunt me.'You're a badass' I say and Helmut smirks in satisfaction.Ready to jump the castle in order
Omnipresent narratorHelmut smiles as he watches the she-wolf leave for the forest and it is at that moment that he pushes the women away and orders the music turned up louder, so that Aitana can hear them celebrate having humiliated her, though she really resents the loud music."Sir, I already delivered the message." Wolf informs his boss, when he first arrives."Good thing, because I was worried there was another crazy woman dressed as a bride in that castle." Helmut says in a mocking tone, as he grabs a bottle of wine."Have you seen her?" asks the wolf with obvious concern and that's when Helmut turns off the music, as he watches the women he has kissed, begin to pale."She ran off into the woods" replies Helmut downplaying something that would make any husband angry."And he let her go?" asks the beta wolf clearly concerned and surprised to see how it had all ended."She's a beta, she should know how to defend herself. Oh, right, she was raised to be an ornament of a wife." Helm
Helmut looked angry. Like he cared what his wife was doing. Though really it was just a reaction to how territorial and possessive wolves are."That doesn't matter to you." Aitana says coldly."Look, Baitana, I don't care whether or not you die because of me, but, what, I do care and resent, is that you would be so bold as to be unfaithful to me on our first wedding night. So, tell me, who the hell was close enough to you to leave their foul scent?"The anger was evident in Helmut and for the first time in the evening, Aitana smiles at seeing her husband upset and at something she has done.'Finally you're feeling discomfort. It's about time I wasn't the only one having a bad night' Aitana says to herself mentally.'Let go of me, you're hurting me' says Aitana with difficulty and that makes Helmut push her away as she angrily backs away."Who came near you?" he asks again seeing that she doesn't answer his question."Does that matter to you?" asks Aitana annoyed and Helmut, seeing tha
Helmut walked towards his castle and when he arrived he confirmed what his curse reminded him again and again when he tried to enjoy a woman. The girls he had kissed who were overly powerful betas had died just from giving them pleasure from kissing them. "Sir, what do you want us to do now?" asks one of his subordinates."Send them to their families with plenty of money and forbid a single woman to serve me. I don't want any more unnecessary deaths." orders Helmut and his men nod knowing it is the only thing they can do for the dead she-wolves."What about his wife?""Let her become mistress and mistress of her castle and the garden, but, for nothing in the world let anything like today happen again." Helmut says coldly.The memory of the smell on Aitana, makes his head ache and with annoyance, he scolds his mind for thinking so much about something he shouldn't care about.'If she falls in love with someone, it's for the best. That way, if she manages to survive my curse she'll ha
There was no way to stop it and the worst thing was that the victim did not know what she was going to face and therefore did not even run. Even if she did, it was not going to save her. Two of his deceased wives can testify to that."Everyone run, inform the girls to get as far away from the lady as possible or she won't be able to survive today, without the lady knowing" says one of the stronger werewolves, as he tries to keep track of his boss.As he had ordered, they howl in code, so that only the she-wolves part of the special forces of the pack would understand. After all, they didn't want to waste time arguing with Aitana when the lives of all three were in danger.So, as soon as Aitana reached her, she gave her a strong blow to the back of the head and transforming Brenda into a wolf, she waited for them both to get on to run away from there as fast as they could, before it was too late."Run as fast as you can, if the boss catches up with us, he will kill us without even a li
The wolves' footsteps are heard closer and closer, while Helmut tries to stop what his body is doing on its own. Aitana, observing the hatred in his gaze, begins to cry and tremble."I assure you, if you let me go, I won't appear in front of you again. Just please, don't hurt me. I'm only nineteen years old. I have many things I want to experience, many things except death. >> Please don't kill me, it was a mistake to believe that fairy tales come true, but I've learned my lesson, so please spare my life, and let me go.” Aitana says in the middle of crying."Three of the wolves appear and pounce on Helmut, as they try to control their boss's ferocity. Immediately, Aitana runs to the nearest tree and using her experience climbing very fast trees, climbs to the highest and safest part while the wolves try to control their boss.Distressed and with the rain leaving her unable to see very far, she begs for her now husband to disappear completely. But, as she tries to hide with the thin b
Narrated AitanaThe night felt too short, and it was no wonder, in the middle of the rain I had to flee the island, because my husband wanted to kill me. So, neither in the car, nor on the yacht they used to take me off the island, I couldn't sleep. When I arrived at the house where I thought I was going to rest, many questions flooded my mind, and I could not sleep no matter how hard I tried. Exhausted, I see how the weak rays of the sun, cross the fabric of the curtains, while I check that it is not a dream what I lived last night.I look around and see my wedding dress that looks like anything but a wedding dress. I get up knowing I won't be able to sleep and using only my sheets to cover my nakedness, I enter the bathroom I refused to give myself last night."God, hopefully water is what I need to wake up from this nightmare" I ask in a whisper, as the water begins to moisten my body, as it mocks my naive thought of waking up from a reality where evidently, I won't be able to get
I was overwhelmed. I could count the sentences that Helmut had said and confirmed that he had not said much, but the little he had said had left me so stunned that the night had arrived, and I was still on the floor not knowing what to do or say.It was clear that he had said that I was going to die, what I didn't understand was why I was going to die, was he going to turn into a beast that wants to kill me every night? God, I hope that's not it, because I doubt I could survive something like that."I'd better lock the door, before it comes to kill me" I mutter putting the lock on and sitting on the bed not knowing what else to do.I was in serious trouble, and I didn't know what to do to get out of this trap that is going to end my life. Because if my strange husband didn't do it, the worry would kill me. Not knowing what to do was going to end me.The door opens and I stand up scared and confused because they could open it without problems. The girl appears with an apologetic smile,
