chapter 12

Eliana, he said, "call me by my name Damon and she simply nodded.

...

They were welcomed by Damon's family

The grand hall was adorned with lavish decorations as the guests gathered for the welcoming buffet.

Damon: "I hope you're ready for this, Eliana. Our families have high expectations."and i won't be disgraced by anyone because I have a reputation to keep.

Eliana nodded, her voice barely above a whisper. "I'll do my best, Damon."

As the night progressed, Eliana tried to engage in polite conversation, but the guests seemed disinterested in her presence. She felt like an outsider, longing for acceptance.

Later, as they entered their luxurious bedroom, Eliana's heart raced with nervous anticipation. She looked at Damon, who seemed like a stone with rigid chest.

Finally,he removed his mask abs that was when Eliana saw that Damon was not only handsome,he looked strinkly gorgeous and his grey metallic eye. It looked cold and was gritting in danger.

He looked at Eliana and he said,

STRIP,he ordered,

Eliana thought she didn't hear him well until he said Eliana,it is time we consummate this marriage with this Grey eye gritting in danger.

Eliana: *voice trembling* Damon, please... I'm begging you, don't do this, just spare me....I don't want to consummate this marriage yet.

Damon: *coldly* Spare you? You think I care about your pleas? You're my wife now, Eliana. You're bound to me.i can do anything I want with you.

Eliana: *choking back tears* Damon, I never wanted this marriage.i was forced into this alliance.

Damon: *with a sinister grin* Mercy? Marriage means power, Eliana. I hold all the cards now. You're at my mercy.i will have or devour your body anytime I want because "YOU ARE MINE".

Eliana: *desperate* Damon, please, don't do this.

Damon: *leaning in, his voice low and menacing* I said STRIP!

With shame,Eliana began to remove all her cloths until she got to her undergarments...as she was about to remove it, Damon left the room in anger and disgust.

Eliana cried and cried herself to sleep because she felt embarrassed and angry after been forced into an alliance she didn't want.

.....

Prepare the carriage,Damon said,I'm going to see Ella.

Duke Damon " she said seductively". How was your marriage and the wedding night with the princess?

Damon: she's very timid and I feel so angry in her presence...she irritates me and angers me,Only her presence alone makes me go crazy.
