A Bride To Be
Last Updated:
2021-02-22 04:25:56“Catalina!!” I hear my best friend Anna call out my name for God knows how long ,we are watching the news ,there was another shooting today downtown, the news is always depressing to watch nowadays, always one shooting or the other, I practically zoned off.
it’s my 4 year anniversary with Christian Montero tomorrow and judging from the call we had 2 hours ago , he said he is going to propose to me and he hopes I say yes, and then he ends the call, i am supposed to be going insane with so much happiness,
I mean, I am getting proposed to by one of the most eligible bachelors in manhattan or dare I say, one of the most eligible bachelors in the world ,he is the sole heir to “TECH M” the best tech company on the planet with a net worth of over trillion of dollars,
so why the hell am I not jumping up with excitement? I have known Christian for 4 years now, we met at a tech gala I was attending in place of my father, Sebastian Brooks, married to Natalia Brooks my mother,
My Dads company, “EMZA” deals with the production of drugs and medical gadgets. My father has his own fair of wealth but nothing compared to the Montero’s.
I and Christian hit it off immediately, we talked about the company, and how I just finished university with a bachelor’s degree in economics and majored in business, while he graduated a few years before me and he was 25 years of age when we first met,
Christian is absolutely divine, he is 6 Ft. tall, brown hair always neatly arranged, I don’t think I have ever seen Christian have a bad hair day actually, blue eyes, and a really nice fitted body,
, it was really alluring for like the first two months of the relationship, with the whole thrill of dating a multi billionaire and all, within that two months I realized he is a very proud, self-centered human, and really terrible at making love, I got seriously bored and lost any atom of feelings I ever had,
Why did I not leave the relationship you might ask? I felt like it would get better, I just needed to put in a little effort and with time I could change him, and besides my family is extremely happy about this relationship,
Wherever I go, I am treated with so much respect immediately they realize I’m the girlfriend to Christian MONTERO,
I guess I chose greed, fame and power over my personal happiness, call me stupid but I know most people would have made the exact same choice if in my shoes.
Anna looks at me with those sad eyes like she knew exactly what I was thinking, of course she knew everything, we both knew each other so damn well, we’ve been friends since high school.
I stand up heading towards the bathroom because somehow I felt dizzy all of a sudden and felt the need to throw up, as soon as I am done spilling my guts, I sit down and begin to cry,
“it’s going to be okay”, these are the words she keeps telling me ,but I know it’s the end for me,
“ how is any of this going to be okay Anna? I’m about to marry someone I don’t have feelings for, all because I ought to or because its comfortable, I know I got myself into this but getting out is somehow not an option, I kept telling myself things would change I should have patience, a year turned into two then into three now it’s been four years and I’m about to be engaged, I’m in too deep, feeling so damn pathetic,”
anyone listening to me right at this moment would think of me as an ungrateful bitch but call me all you want I still feel like I deserve better and Anna gets that and i am so thankful to her.
I am done being a cry baby, after lots of pep talk and alcohol I decide to accept it for what it is , I just need to accept that this is what my life is going to be like.
I begin to blast my favorite music, dancing and singing to my song, Anna has a really creepy taste when it comes to music, so as usual she goes upstairs to take a nap as she finds my taste of music weird, I continue to dance and scream till my body wears out,
I lay down, turn off the music as I quietly allow the alcohol do its thing my eyes beginning to feel heavy as I quietly drift off to sleep.

I wake up to the sound of Anna’s loud yelling, she is probably on the phone with one of her clients, I seriously don’t understand how this girl never seems to have a hangover I mean my head is spinning and there is this painful ache that won’t die down anytime soon, but there she is all dressed up and ready for the day like she didn’t down half a bottle of vodka last night.My, back hurts from sleeping all night on the floor, I decide to make myself a hot cup of coffee,I don’t need to head out until later in the evening for my date with Christian,Tomorrow, I have dinner plans with my dad and some Bulgarian investors, my dad is trying to partner with this new tech company in Bulgaria, so he can start launching a new level of medical application, I have to be there because STBC has decided to partner in this new project too.Anna drops her phone with a bang and goes all, “stupid fools, they never get their job right”.

What!! I can’t believe we are here already it felt like we barely moved, I check my wrist watch, I noticed it took twenty minutes, I looked up at Antonio and gave him a smile muttering a thank you, because I knew it was a fifteen minutes’ drive at max from Anna’s apartment, He obviously took extra time as he must have noticed my nervousness, just then my phone rings and it’s my mum calling.I slide to answer, “Catalina Brooks I am so proud of you I knew you would finally succeed and make him yours, good luck honey I love you” she says in excitement“Mum, how did you know he is going to ask me to marry him?” I asked, absolutely surprised“Oh, honey Christians mum called, she said Christian called her earlier today asking for her blessing, you have no idea how excited I am sweetheart, you’ve made us so proud, I have to go now honey, call me when it’s done, bye sweetie,” Mum! Mum! I sigh, realizing she ended the call already,looking up i see Christi

“We are leaving”, Christian grabs my arm as we get into his car, we seat at the back of the car, I am guessing its new, I have never seen this one before, Christian has a thing for cars, he has a thing for almost everything, once it’s a luxury brand and it just launched he is literally the first to cup it, shoes, wrist watches, suits and all that.Immediately I feel his hands slide through my gown, “Christian, we are in your car and besides your driver will see” I sayto him hoping he would stop,“hey you ,get out for a few minutes,” he half shouts at the driver, the driver hurriedly steps out of the car, Christian wastes no time as he starts to kiss me roughly, forcefully ripping off my dress inan attempt to gain unrestrictedaccess to my breasts, I gasp in horror but he mistook that as an opportunity to deepen the kiss, as he roughly grabs my breast, squeezing my breasts like they did something wrong, it was hurting so much, but I dare not complai

I walk out of the car, and I swear it felt like someone was watching, I look sideways to see if anyone was lurking around, as their are a few butlers at this part of the house,I shrug it off, I am about to open the huge door to the entrance of the main hall, but Sam our butler beats me to it,“Good evening miss Catalina,” “Good evening Sam,”“meeting room B3,” Sam says, I thank him and begin to ascend the stairs.My head faced down as I made my first step, when suddenly I felt that feeling of been watched once again, I look up and stop dead in my tracks, it felt like time had stopped, at that moment I felt like a bucket of ice was poured over my head, Ifelt really cold, I could not move, I just stood there for what felt like hours, as I stared into those green eyes, I swear they sparkled in the lighting, his dirty blonde hair tousled, he wore a ripped jeans, and a black cardigan, with the sleeves rolled up, it

My hands are shaking slightly, I have no idea why, it took every ounce of energy I had in me as of that moment to return the gesture, and when our hands touched each other, I swear a bolt of lightning has nothing on the kind of current that ignited my body,“Yes, you are right, this is she,” I inwardly cringed at my response, “This is she? Really!! ”I try to let go of his hand, but I catch his eyes linger on my engagement ring for a second and then he lets go of my hand,I begin to walk towards my father,“Catalina dear, congratulation, I am so proud of you, let us celebrate after this, but for now let’s talk business,”taking a seat beside Mr. Patrick, two seats away from Stiliyan,“You are all grown up, young lady, your father tells me you just got engaged to Christian Montero, congratulations,” shifting my gaze to Stiliyan, I seehis forehead is a little creased deep in thought, I swiftly return my gaze to Mr

“O my God!! Catalina Brooks is in love with a child”Anna says, while laughing hysterically, rolling on the floor being unnecessarily dramatic, laughing really hard, I just stare at her completely not amused, all I did was tell her everything I know and felt about Stiliyan, and what she got from that was love!!, I tell you this girl is nuts, I wait for her to dial it down with the laughter, it seems she is almost done, but begins to laugh again then stops getting all serious,“ Don’t tell me you are serious right now, you -felt what? , a jolt of electricity!, don’t be stupid Catalina, take a look at your finger, do you see that thing around it, it’s called a fucking engagement ring, you are engaged into one of the richest family on the planet, don’t think of anything stupid, you would be ruining your life and his life”“What is your problem?

“Dinner at my place, you should be here before 7pm,”Says the text I got a few hours ago from Christian, Antonio is packed in front of Christians’ mansion, we arrived twenty minutes ago, I am bracing myself for what is to come, there is a normal routine whenever I come over;we have dinner, most times before dinner is over he starts touching me in a pathetic attempt to arouse me, but after a few seconds, he slides into me, oblivious to the dryness of my vagina, sometimes I never get wet, and would bleed when he is done, while sometimes my body betrays me and I get moist, or a little wet, irrespective of what my mind or heart might be feeling, they say the human body has a mind of its own, it drives me crazy at times like that but the good thing is, I don’t bleed when my body acts up, he never lasts over 5 minutes anyway, and when he is through with me he rolls over and drifts off to sleep,I’m seated in my car bracing myself for the ev

I look through the glass window, Everyone looks really busy, I see Anna talking to a few people, my mum is giving a young lady an earful, My Dad and Ryan are talking to a few people, children are running around, I can’t believe this is real, I feel like my heart is going to explode from this much happiness, I am so grateful beyond words. “it’s about to begin, cover your veil,” Anna says as she rushes into the room,“I can’t believe my baby is getting married,” she says giving me a hug, a drop of tear making its way out of my eyes, “oh come on, enough with water works, we are stuck with each other forever,” “Come on ladies, you can’t leave a man standing at the altar,” My dad says as he walked in looking really chirpy. I can hear the music as I slowly walk into the wedding grounds, my eyes are fixated on the ground, I am a little nervous, as I walk beside my father, our arms interlocked with each other, I am dressed in a really long white, lacey long slee

“Catalina!!!! My princess, how are you? Oh darling,” she says to me embracing me in a tight hug as she lets out a light sob, “mum I am okay, I am really okay” My dad and Ryan walk up to me as they embrace me in a tight hug too, this felt nice, I really missed my family, we finally break apart and my dad notices Stiliyan, “Thank you so much, thank you, we really appreciate and I am entirely grateful t..,” “You must be Stiliyan, you look so young? Thank you for saving my daughter, we are forever indebted to you,” “It was no big deal, you are welcome,” Stiliyan says with a smile on his face, but I could tell he is uneasy, I could see guilt in his eyes, My brother walks up to Stiliyan giving him a handshake thanking him too, “It was not all me, my best friend here played a very important role,” Stiliyan says gesturing towards john, “This is your lawyer; we’ve seen each other at the business meeting,

“Why are you so lost in your thoughts?” Stiliyan says, as he sat next to me, legs crossed, ‘damn this man is sexy’, I mentally say to myself,“I have no idea how badly they are going to take all of this, the news regarding the death of the heir to the Montero Empire should be everywhere, the airport is probably swamped with reporters, awaiting my arrival, I wonder how much they know?All this is going to be really difficult.Stiliyan, what are you going to do about all this, you might get arrested?” I say to him, revealing my biggest fear,“Catalina, no one except your family knows we are on our way to Manhattan, I made sure of that,and Christian killed himself to save you, the only name the Montero’s can link to his death is Diego, and this is without prove, it will merely be an accusation without evidence, all the while you were locked up your dad, Sebastian, called me various times, plea

In a flash of an eye, Stiliyan pulls out two guns, one pointed at John, the other pointed at Christian,“Diego, do not do this, John! Put down the gun! Don’t make me do this,”“Cata, I am willing to let you go if you never look back at Stiliyan, the moment you come in contact with my son, I would kill you,”“Take the deal Catalina, go home” Stiliyan says calmly, his eyes filled with so much sadness,“I will taste death willingly if that’s what it takes to love you,”I say to Stiliyan with so much love and also sadness,“Wrong answer Cata,”“Diego, let her go I’d come with you,” “Not good enough for me son, I want her gone” “Diego!!!! Don’t make me do this please! You are the only father I have left! I will come with you, put down the gun, please I beg you, do not hurt her” Stiliyan says to DiegoI close my eyes, accepting what is to come, I would miss my Anna, my mum, Ryan, dad, and most of all, I would miss ‘him’ I look at Stiliy

“This was not the deal!” Pablo yells,I am feeling extremely scared my palms are sweaty, my heart is beating uncontrollably, Christian looks extremely scared, sweat dripping from his forehead as he mumbles incoherent words due to the duct tape over his lips, his vein popping out of his neck,“Please I beg of you, don’t do this, we are extremely sorry about thirteen years ago,” Juliana says tears flowing helplessly from her eyes,“What the fuck!Son, did you hear that? She says she is sorry? You are sorry? Are you crazy? You killed people! You killed my friends!!You destroyed families to get to where you are,I ran away from Manhattan to avoid been killed by you, you killed my best friend, you stole my life! While you were seated on my throne, you had the perfect family, you were living it good! I struggled!I had to do unspeakable things to survive!” Diego roars in anger, I have never seen Diego this angry, no smile present,
Always and Forever Tick Tock
I am speechless, so many thoughts are going through my head, all this time I thought he was avoiding me solely because I am engaged, I had no idea it was so much bigger than that, the same guys from yesterday walk into the room with the same bags,“Good day Sir,” they say to John, “hurry the fuck up, Diego and Stiliyan would be here really soon,” they say nothing as they begin to unpack and set up, at that moment the door opens and in came a well-dressed Diego, followed by an extremely gorgeous Stiliyan, Diego is dressed in a red suit, his head shiny,Stiliyan is dressed in a pecan colored suit, his dirty blonde hair gelled back, he looks absolutely divine, ‘MINE’ I say in a low whisper,two hefty looking men walk in seconds later, they looked alike except one has a white colored hair and the other a black colored hair,“Hello my dear Cata, I trust you slept well, I want to thank you for all of this, you made this all possible, I am grateful, this is Do
Always and Forever Truth
“You’ve been so quiet, what are you thinking,” I say to Christian, it’s been a few hours since Stiliyan, John and Diego walked out of here, Christian has been so quiet, I did not bother saying anything as I am deep in my own thoughts too, I have a really bad feeling about all this,“What do you want me to say? You know, it’s funny how you are boldly throwing yourself at someone in front of my very eyes, you don’t give a fuck about me Catalina, but I can risk my life for you,” he says in a low whisper,“Christian I know this is fucked up, but right now, we need to think of a way out of this place, do you have anything up your sleeves?”“Are you joking with me right now, do you really think we are going to walk out of here on our own, two hefty men are right outside the door, how many more do you think would be surrounding this place? Or are you trying to make small talk to make me look less of a fool, the only person that can get us out of here, is your little
Always and Forever Cruciatu
“Increase the intensity of the light; I need this to come out nice and perfect,”Diego is seated close to Christian, his legs crossed, the man looks so vile, always with that smug smile, sick bastard, Christian seems out of it at the moment, barely conscious.Stiliyan has made sure to stay clear of any eye contact, this is terribly wrong, I understand he lost his parents but I greatly thought we were bigger than this, I strongly believed we felt the same way, this man in front of me, with his face down, lost in his phone, acting completely oblivious to his surrounding is not someone I fell in love with, thinking of it,Who did I fall in love with?“You are awfully quiet Cata,” “Don’t call me that” I said in a low voice but loud enough for him to hear my words, I don’t really want to piss him off, he might hit me or take it out on Christian, but the name Cata reminds me of my mum, it’s just too much for me to bear,“Diego, the call is going t
