TRISTAN 

I was never in support of this show called marriage, in fact everything was arranged by my Grandfather. He sees it as a way of repaying the kindness Mr Lawson did for him years ago and this whole thing irks me. 

I'm in love with Fiona who has brought nothing but happiness into my life. After my parents died in a ghastly car accident a few years ago I shut myself out from the world. I was left with my Step mom who made things worse for me. 

Thank God for my Grandfather who has always stood by me and supported me.

Apart from my Grandfather, Fiona has been fully active in my life and I love her so much, we were planning on getting married but my Grandfather insisted that I get married to Vanessa.

I could remember arguing with him telling him how much I hate the idea of getting married to someone I don't love let alone someone from a family that doesn't have a name.

No way! I was never going to do that until he threatened me with something I cherished so much, my inheritance and position as the Alpha king.

"What did you say?" I asked in utter bewilderment.

"Yes, you heard me right. I will seize your inheritance and make your step brother take your place as the Alpha king if you refuse to get married to Mr Lawson's daughter" He blurted out carelessly.

I was shocked, I never expected him to go that far, I'm twenty five years old and I'm old enough to make decisions for myself.

I agreed because I had another plan. I was going to divorce her and get married to Fiona immediately. He handed my inheritance over to me. I talked to Fiona about it and she agreed to wait for me.

I stared at the petite and beautiful lady standing close to me smiling innocently, she doesn't know what she was getting into, I caught her stealing glances at me several times, her eyes were so beautiful and it holds a lot of emotions, one can easily tell what she was feeling from her eyes.

I could remember how she groped my robe  the moment my lips pressed against her soft and plump lips, she acted like it was her first kiss. I know that she was putting up an act just to convince and get everyone to like her. That can't be me, I will never fall for her acts. I know women like her, they get married to wealthy men just because of their money,  They are gold diggers.

I was busy with the guests  when I saw Her arguing with Fiona and that angered me. I quickly excused myself and went to them. I can't let anyone treat her badly.

"What's going on here?" I asked immediately as I approached them.

"She's mocking me, Babe" Fiona complained to me, she was so sad and that made me furious. I quickly dragged Vanessa to the bathroom and leaned her against the wall while holding her hand tightly.

"Listen to me carefully, I want you to treat Fiona with respect, she's meant to be the one in this dress and not you! You will face my wrath if you ever disrespect her again!" My voice thundered and she nodded her head positively while staring at me, she acted like she was scared but I don't give a Fuck about how she feels. I finally let go of her  and walked away.

"Wait for me, Babe. I promise to fix everything and come back to you" I assured Fiona and we shared a hug.

The wedding is over and the guest has finally left the palace. We all live together and that was because of my Grandfather. He insisted we should all live under the same roof as a family despite knowing how much we despise each other, it's a miracle that we haven't burned down the Palace.

My Dad got married to my Mom and after having me, my mom died in a car accident while taking me to the park to play. It was a miracle that I survived but that incident never left me till this day. That made my father take a second wife, Bianca, who tried to make my childhood miserable.

She gave birth to Carl and Carolyn the twins after my Dad married her. Few years later, my Dad also died in a car accident which I think serves him right and since then my Grandfather has been so protective of us, especially me.

The world sees us as a beautiful and peaceful family because of the way we comfort ourselves outside the house. We try to look like the perfect family when we are outside but when we are at home, the story is always different. My step mom and Carl were my enemies and we never wanted to set our eyes on each other. She wants her son to be the heir of the .... family and take everything my Grandfather has. It was war and we have been competing with each other since we were kids. He's studying in another country far away from ours and I was excited about that because I was five seconds away from ending his life the last time I set my eyes on him.

I was  in the sitting room with Vanessa and we didn't utter a word to each other. I picked up the magazine close to me and kept myself busy with it. I can't believe the fact that I'm officially married.

 The maids came to the sitting room to officially welcome the Queen into the palace. "Get me a glass of water" I commanded one of the maids and handed my crown to her. I left the sitting room without taking Vanessa with me, I don't care whether she comes in or not.

My Grandfather sent it to me and soon we were sitting in his room while he lectured me about marriage. It was a very boring lecture and I had to pretend to listen in order not to annoy him.

After the lecture I headed straight to my room which has now turned into Vanessa's room. The thought of that irritated me and I swore never to have anything to do with her sexually. I opened the door and saw her coming out of the bathroom while a white towel was tied around her chest. Her body was wet and so was her long hair. She was about to come out of the bathroom when her towel got stuck by the door. She tried to pull it and her towel fell down to the floor and she was standing naked in front of me.
