"How old are you?" Xavier asked, watching her.
"E-eighteen summers,” Leawyn stuttered, looking up at him nervously. She knew that he was much older than she, and the knowledge that she was expected to marry him made her stomach clench with sickness. But, Leawyn knew that some girls younger than herself were married to much older men. She told herself she should be somewhat grateful.
"We will be married in three days’ time."
Leawyn's body tensed in shock, the icy cold feeling of dread washing over her. "What?" She gaped at him. "We can't!"
She couldn't live with this man! This possessive, domineering man who didn't care if he hurt her.
She shook her head. She wouldn’t marry Xavier. Not after meeting him.
"I won't marry you," Leawyn said suddenly, her brows creasing as she stared up at him in determination.
Xavier stiffened, every muscle in his body tensing as his eyes cut to hers. Leawyn swallowed against the urge to run as she edged away from him, catching the dangerous glint that entered his eyes. The glint was that of a predator that caught sight of its prey right before attacking.
She had a feeling that the prey was her.
“What did you say?” Xavier asked, his voice silky and dripping with promised danger.
Leawyn gulped, but then lifted her chin defiantly while staring at him with more bravery than she felt.
“I will not marry you,” she repeated, backing away from him as he took slow, measured steps towards her.
Xavier shook his head slowly, his icy eyes never leaving hers. "I'll ask you one more time, Leawyn. What did you just say?”
“I refuse to marry—”
Xavier's eyes flashed furiously, his hand shooting out and wrapping around the back of her neck in a vice-like grip. Using his other hand, he gripped her jaw brutally.
"You will become my wife, Leawyn," he said in warning. He leaned in, rubbing his bearded cheek against her smooth one. "And if I find out you have let another man between your legs come our wedding night…” She could only emit a soft gasp of pain as Xavier's grip around her neck squeezed tighter. "I'll kill you," he whispered softly into her ear.
Leawyn sucked in a sharp breath, and he laughed humorlessly as he drew back and looked into her frightened eyes.
How had her life come to this?
