Chapter 6 Get Married??

Two days later,

Isabella was ready to join in her summer trip with her friends. Excited about all the new places that she would discover this year, her mood was particularly good and cheerful.

It was evening time when she came down to inform her parents that she would be heading off for Caroline's house today. Caroline assured her to send off soon. After that trumatised incident, she began to spend more and more time with others to erase such fearsome thoughts from her mind.

His dad stared at her flying back blankly. His old wrinkled face contoured in worry. A helpless sigh came out from his lips. Hanging his head down lowly, he fell in dillemma untill Mrs. Adams tapped on his shoulders. Glancing up at her husband worryingly, she asked in a low voice,

" Have you told her yet? I..I am sure that she will understand us."

Mr.Adams shook his head denying. He knew his daughter too well. Apart from being sensitive, she was too stubborn and adamant to focus on her perfect career only. There was no way out that she would agree to get married with him so soon.

Things had happened according to Lucien's plan. Just a day ago, he met Isabella's father personally and showed his intention of marrying his daughter. Mr. Adams was quite surprised to learn that the man was none other than the owner of Xander International Limited. Anyone would be happy to get such perfect guy for their daughter but he knew that his daughter would never agree to marry him at this moment. Besides Lucien looked quite old than her current age.

His first thought was going to refuse him but Lucien, the cunning wolf was already prepared for his answer. He reminded Mr.Adams of his house mortgage which had only two months left before the due date. Last year, Mrs. Adams had to go through a surgery. To ensure Isabella's bright future, Mr.Adams used their house as source of money. Even until today, he still couldn't find enough money to pay off. Lucien assured him that he would pay off his debt in exchange of marrying his daughter.

Mr. Adams was definitely moved and a bit relieved by his proposal. Marrying Lucien would profit him from both sides. Besides, Lucien was a powerful man and would definitely fulfill Isabella's dream. After making all this conclusions, he decided to take time from Lucien and returned home to discuss with Isabella first. But he just couldn't do it until now.

Wind was blowing pretty vigorously today. Isabella had to fix her skirt few times because of the impact and growled frustratingly at the whirlwind air. She was waiting out of her house for Caroline's car.

A loud horning sound came out from the other end of road. Startled by the ear piercing sound, she stumbled backwards instinctively and frowned hard at the unknown driver.

Much to her surprise, the black RV stopped right in front of her. Those metallic glass rolled down slowly until she spotted a devil face inside. Her breathing was slightly caught in her lungs. She recognized the man was none other than Lucien Xander Mitchell who appeared in magazine few times very recently.

She breathed through her lips nervously and met those grey eyes once he snapped his head aside. Lucien's voice came out politely,

" Miss Adams, can we talk?"

Something hit in her realization. The voice was too familiar and her instinct was telling that she knew this man. But she was still hesitating to hop inside an unfamiliar person's car.

Lucien looked through his hesitation. His lips curved up slightly until he spitted out few words to erase her hesitation,

" Well, I don't appear like a rogue. Am I? Besides, you will know me sooner or later. Before everything, I want to tell you everything."

Isabella blinked at him few times. Confused about his true intentions, she decided to act brave and followed him into the car after texting Caroline about her sudden change of plan.

*****************

The drive went off quitely without any exchange of words. Lucien was still battling on the fact that how he would confess himself to her. They were legally mated now and she needed to learn about all the supernatural creatures as soon as possible. But it wouldn't be easy since she was a human and had natural fears towards beast like him.

Isabella sighed softly, wrung her both arms together and stated after watching him in dillemma,

" Umm..May I know why did Mr.Mitchell ask me to get into his car?"

She spoke and ran her eyes nervously through his silhouette. He had grey eyes, black ambush haircut and an aura that could be described as intimidating. Apart from being nicely clothed, he had this by born aura and Isabella found it quite chilling. Whenever she met his grey eyes, she found them mysterious.

Lucien turned his head aside to stare at Isabella who was jerked off slightly. His palm rubbed on his thigh hesitantly. His wolf was itching to touch his mate but once they touched again, the bond would become stronger. Lucien didn't want that untill they were fully mated by marrying each others.

Dismissing all the negative thoughts from his conscious, he stated more likely in a tone of ordering,

" Miss Adams, I would like to marry you as soon as possible. The proposal has been sent to your parents already. If you have anymore questions about me, you can ask me here."

Isabella was stupified for a moment. Her eyes looked up in confusion at Lucien blankly. Almost hitting her head against the surface of his car, she took a while to register her thoughts.

Her dream was always simple. Marrying such powerful man was never in her choice. Morever they didn't know each others and shared no romantic feelings.

Why would she marry him?

Isabella mustered up her courage to reply back. Locking their gazes boldly, she replied with humour,

" I can't..Mr.Mitchell. I have other plans in my life, Mr.Mitchell. I don't know what my parents replied to you. But personally, I don't have any intention of getting married now."

Lucien's face sank a little. From front seat, Vincent swallowed hard hearing that his lord was mercilessly rejected by a human girl savagely.

Lucien's response came out as ordering,

" But you have to."

Isabella wiggled her brows slightly together. She questioned looking through his deep grey eyes,

" Why? Give me one reason."

Lucien replied enjoying her bravery side surprisingly,

" You sure that you won't freak out?"

Isabella became more and more confused. This man spoke with underlined meanings which wasn't getting into her head at all. Sucking another deep breath, she replied eager to know his reason,

" No, I won't. Tell me, why should we get married?"

Lucien gave her a sly smirk. Looking back at Vincent who was driving the car, he commanded shortly,

" Drive to the nearby forest, Vincent."
