There are things you wish to say but you can't things you wished you did but you didn't. This was how Jason was feeling when he looked at the invitation card in his hands. How he wished he could have held her close to his chest how he could have valued their small talks but that was it. There was nothing he could do now she belonged to someone else now. So he put his heart in his hands and placed it on the shelf and locked it he had thrown the key away after all nothing in the world lasted
And love was a lie a very big scam
*The wedding night*
Emma looked at herself in the mirror she looked like somebody else, she felt she was in another person's shoes living another person's dream. Her make up which she enjoyed doing now made her face heavy. This was her wedding night she was supposed to feel over the moon she was supposed to be staring at herself in the mirror and repeating so this is it am finally going to get married but that joy was replaced with sadness, a darkness that could consume. The million-dollar wedding gown didn't feel like a wedding gown but it felt like her prison uniform she was going to stay with a guy she barely knew forever and ever (well till death do them apart)
Marriage was not a mere thing to her. It was a sacred bond and love mattered. Choosing each other mattered , looking pass each others flaws and working on each other mattered . But in the game of chess she was a mere pawn. She was just a tool they used to expand their worth. A mere business transaction. Nobody was on their own in the family they all had to obey their grandfather Enrick Stone. He had built the Stone family empire at the age of 18. He was ruthless . Once you enjoy his worth you have to enjoy the conditions attached to it. Now she had to be that brave girl and accept her fate and marry a guy she was arranged for long before she was born "Emma, it's going to be fine he won't hurt you we've known Jacob since he was a kid" Emma's mother tried to console her daughter but she couldn't even trust her own words. Emma turned to look at her mother and just nodded, being the good girl she was she accepted her fate and walked down the aisle. The crowd had all turned to look at her some were giving her envious looks and others were just looking at her as if they were expecting her to make a mistake she couldn't bear the stares so she looked down and made her way to the altar she didn't dare look up at the person standing right in front of her, her prison ward. Her husband to be she could not hear anything until the priest called her name and told her to say her vows she looked up to meet piercing blue eyes she was lost in the eyes and the owner seems to know how to use his eyes she felt like the eyes had seen through her, knew all her darkest secret not like she had any but still the eyes caused her to shake."I know I am handsome but you don't have to shake like that Mrs Hearts". Emma couldn't gelp but blush , she thought did he just give me his surname?
Don't worry you will be seeing more of me" Jacob whispered in her ears even his voice sent shivers down her spine what was happening to her how was she being affected so much by the guy she was supposed to hate, the guy she was marrying without her consent. Her body was shameless she thought "you may now kiss the bride" before Emma could react to the command made by the priest she felt his lips on hers his lips were so soft she kissed him back before she realized what she just did the crowd started shouting and clapping.
Her fate have been sealed. She is married now and she just could not believe it.
Jacob tried his best to control the painbin his heart. Emma the he had loved since high school was now married. The pain turn to regret he should have reciprocated Emma's love for him. He should have told her .
Now the words where left unspoken
