Someone I least expected

Josephine POV

I gulped hard, when I noticed his angry face, I tried as much as possible to keep calm, but I just can't, the thought of facing my father, was bringing cold shivers down my spine.

I then noticed the way he managed to dart his eyes towards Aiden, while looking so disappointed, I couldn't say a word, because I was feeling extremely scared.

" Young man, is this where you come to filled my daughter's ears with lies right" he asked, before he took steady strides towards me, he then roughly pulled me to his grip.

"Argh" I groaned, when my ankle twisted. Then Aiden tried to help me, by checking the twisted ankle, but my father immediately stopped him.

"Don't you dare think if touching her, because the consequences won't be good " he warned, before he started dragging me towards the car.

I turned back to look at Aiden, he was looking at me with a sad expression, but he can't do anything, because if he tries to do anything, it might cost his life in the process.

My father shoved me inside the car, before he slammed the door, and went to sit on the drivers sit, it was evident enough that he was raging in anger, but rather he was trying to keep the anger at bay.

"I have done all I could to bring out the best in you, to make you a better person, but I don't know why you are hellbent on getting married to that golddigger " he said those words so harshly, that I had the raw urge to slap him.

" Father don't call him that, he's not a golddigger dad, he really loves me, and I know it"

"How sure are you" he asked, which made me think for a while, if I was really certain about the feelings he have for me.

"Why can't you say a word, because you yourself , you are not hundred percent sure of his feelings"

I kept quiet for a while, I wonder why my father is forcing me to marry someone I don't love, someone I don't really give a damn, someone I don't even know.

" Please dad, let me make a decision for once in my life, I hate the way you have to choose my life partner" I said, as I allowed the unshed tears, to freely paved it's way down my cheeks, then that was when my father stopped the car, before he stared at me right in the eyes.

" I know what's good for you Josephine, for that reason I'm ready to go to any level to keep you safe from unwanted people" he said, before he took a deep breath, trying to calm his raging nerves.

"Even if I have to use force to make you get married, then I don't mind" he said, before he started the engine, and sped up the car.

"Dad what are you planning to do?" I asked, my voice etched with fear, but he was not listening, till we reached home, that's when he immediately called some abled men, before they roughly pulled me towards my room, I struggled, but I was weak against this Giant men.

It was then that I was roughly shoved into my room, before the door was closed, I then shout for help, before I heard the voice of my father.

" Your wedding is happening tomorrow, wether you like it or not, you are going to get married tomorrow" he said, which made cried my eyes out, it hurt so much, that tomorrow I'll be getting married to a total stranger, that I don't know much about, someone I don't even have a good Information about him.

I then cuddled in my bed, before I started crying, even though I know that tears won't solve the problem.

Then I felt my body so weak, my vision became blurry, before I doze off to sleep.

I then heard the sound of someone knocking at the door, I managed to squint my eyes, to the blaring light of the room, I couldn't say a word, Because I was feeling nothing but immense pain.

I then noticed two young girls walked in, with some makeup kits, the were all dressed up.

"We are here to prepare you for the wedding mam" they both chorused respectfully which made me plaster a smile on my face, that's when I managed to stand up, before I head towards the bathroom.

Because I have made up my mind, that I'll agree to marry him, and I'll use that marriage as an avenue for an escape plan.

When I was done taking my bathe, they both started applying the makeup, I stared at myself through the mirror.

I then thought of Aiden, and the love we shared, I felt like crying again, I don't want to lose him, but I know that this marriage is just a name, after we are done, I'll flee and run back to him.

I took a deep breath, once again, while trying to get a grip on myself, after sometime, the were both done, applying my makeup.

I stared at my beautiful self through the mirror, but unfortunately, I won't be able to marry the one my heart yearns for.

I took steady and graceful strides towards the door, I dart my eyes towards my father who was now in a black tuxedo, and my mum who was now wearing her beautiful blue gown.

They both look stunning, I have always imagine my father walking me through the alter to my lovely husband, the man my heart would yearn for, not a man, my father would have to force me to get married to.

Before I could say a word, I then noticed my father gestured the men to hold me, but I immediately stopped then, by raising my hand midair.

"I can walk on my own" I said authoritatively, which made them stop thier actions, before I started moving towards the car.

When I was inside the car, I took a deep breath, while hopping for the best.

When we reached the court room, where the marriage was to be held.

I then noticed the man I was about to get married to, it was someone that made me so shocked.
