THE DON'S BRIDE Chapter Seven Dante’s POV
Immediately I left the room in anger, and I regretted it. Maybe I shouldn't have hit the door as hard as that and why was I even pissed about who she was on the call with?She didn't let me even take a peek. “What's troubling you? You might fall soon.” my mum said behind me and that's when I realized that I was at the top of the stairs.“Oh, it's nothing. I completely zoned out. How is dad?” He was probably in his office right now.“He left earlier back to the house. I don’t think Emily is comfortable with me being here.” She added and I frowned.“Are you sure? You both seem to be avoiding each other pretty well.” She hit my arm and laughed. “We spoke today when she was in the living room and she doesn’t look happy at all Dante.”“I know.”“She is your wife. Do something about it then.”“It's because of me that she isn't even happy mama. You know that already. She was forced into this. We were. She had her life which was cut short and now she is stuck here.”“The girl was in college

My heart skipped a bit once I realised that it was Dave speaking on the phone. My eyes went up to Dante briefly and I but my lips.“Why are you calling me now?” I spoke to Dave on the phone despite Dante standing in front of me.His eyes turned cold as if he could tell who I was speaking to on the phone.“You didn't feel the need to tell me that you were getting married Emily and you are asking why I am calling you?!” he raised his voice on the call and I moved the phone away from my ear.“Who the fuck is that?” Dante was about to collect my phone but I moved away.“Why will you want to know that? We aren't the regular husband and wives so don't act lovey dovey with me right now.” I told him and saw a brief look of hurt on his face.“Can I ask this call first before we speak?” he didn't make a move to leave the room.“Please,” I added and he left me alone with a bang on my door.“Is that the man you married? Are you sure you aren't getting abused in there?” Dave spoke and my eyes wide

I watched her lay on the bed besides me, her eyes were shut close and her hands remained on my chest. For some weird reason, my heart raced extremely fast at the feeling of her tiny hands on my bare skin. I had lied to her yesterday, saying she was not my type was a complete lie.Emily was beautiful. Very beautiful, she had long dark hair that fell across her shoulders, her piercing green eyes were intimidating and her lips looked extremely kissable. When I had forced that kiss on her, I felt sparks fly like electricity. I felt butterflies too and I had not felt that way in a long while.Emily was endowed too. She had a curvy figure that made me want to always hold her waist. Her fierce spirit was admirable too. Everything about Emily was beautiful. I knew her even before our marriage and I had always admired her.She slowly fluttered her eyes open, we locked gaze for a brief moment before she hastily took her hand off my chest. Emily looked down at herself and I saw her expression ch

I fastened the zipper of my black hoodie as I casted a glance at the luggages in front of me. I sighed heavily and paused to run a hand through my hair in frustration. Was i making the right choice here? I was going to pass the night at my boyfriend's place but I was definitely not going to live Dave forever.I needed a plan, I had enough money that would last me for a while but I also had a feeling that if I ended up successfully escaping, dad would still figure out a way to find me, his influence could make him achieve literally anything he set his mind to.There was no going back though. I had to do this and it was either now or never. Without wasting any-more time, I dragged my luggages out of my room and made my way into the dark hallways. Of course, guards were always lurking the premises of the mansion, 2-4-7.I needed to find a distraction, something that would get them away from the gate. I screamed loudly in distress, very loud enough for the guards to have heard me. I heard

"Tonight?" Dante beat me to it. His eyes widened in shock and his jaw dropped at the news that my father had just blurted out. What did he mean by tonight? Was i supposed to just suddenly move into the house of a man I knew nothing about asides his ruthlessness and lack of empathy?The thought alone scared me, I felt the hairs on my skin rise as I imagined living a life with Dante."Yes, tonight. I agree with Carlos. It would be best for you two to move in together immediately. After all, it makes things a lot more easier for the both of you to get to know each other better before the marriage. That way you both would know how to act well in front of the public." Dante's father said, he nodded his head in agreement.I watched how Dante's poker face turned to an angry one. He gritted his teeth and a scowl grew on his face. He hated the idea, not even as much as I did."Okay then, we will be on our way to handle other businesses. It was a nice time with you Carlos and it was lovely meet

I sighed heavily as the black SUV car pulled into a stop in front of our mansion. My bodyguard and personal butler, Mr Fernando hurried from the car just to open the door for me to step out.I flashed him a grateful smile as I slowly made my way into the large compound, my Louis Vuitton bag clutched tight my hands. I paused to halt in my steps, y eyes scanned the environment and I noticed something different, there was a red convertible parked amongst our other luxurious cars.This red convertible did not belong to us and I knew father's taste in cars, it was nothing close to this. I pointed at the car and questioned Fernando. "Did father get a new car?" I paused to suck in my teeth. "I know dad does not like cars like this."Fernando smiled and shook his head in disagreement. "The car belongs to a visitor of your father." He said. Visitor? That was another strange thing that made me feel suspicious, Dad never brought visitors home. He always treated them somewhere about because Dad w

Marrying Dante became the worse regret of my life. It was a horrible experience in the sense that not only was I married to a man that i was not in love with. I was also married to a man that was unbothered about me. Dante never cared about me, he never tried to get along with him. All he cared about was business.Dante usually left the house from morning and returned late at night. A few times, I held out hope that Dante and I would get along well, maybe we would get to know each other too but it was quite the opposite. Dante cared less.I was left all alone in this mansion during the day and my father had broken his promise, I was not allowed to go to college at all. I remained in the house, not even Alejandra nor my father had visited me for once. I felt like a captive, was that not what I was?I tried to reach my boyfriend, or should I say my ex boyfriend?. Anyways, I had tried to reach Dave a few times but he never picked my call for once. My guess was that he had seen the news a
