Linda's p.o.v

Walking down the aisle is the most monumental and most meaningful walk of your life.

To be honest, I felt proud of myself and completely loved while taking each and every step towards the alter. Next to me was the man who held my hands for a short while but held my heart forever. The man who knew what I needed before I asked him. That man who did not tell me how to live instead he lived and let me watch him do it. He protected me, became my shield and took great care of me. He gave me so much love that he did not let me feel the absence of my mother.

Oh! How much I miss her today. Like any other mother, she would have cupped my face and tell me how beautiful I was looking on this important day if she was here.

I could already feel the tears in my eyes. Thanks to the veil that covered my face. No one noticed.

I moved my eyes towards the guests who were beaming at me. I smiled at them wholeheartedly even when they could barely seemy face. Everything seemed to go in slow motion. At this moment, I didn't want to rush. I wanted to witness everything that was happening.

The church was mostly decorated with the flowers of lilies. Lilies, my all the time favorite flower. They are ethereal and represents purity and simplicity.

My father knows me better.

I heard that my favorite song was playing and sadly it was about to end. Everything was perfect. It seemed to be a dream.

Oh! How much I wanted this moment day to last longer.

I averted my gaze to the most handsome man in the world. The love of my life. My would-be-husband, Daniel. The one whom I love unconditionally. My first and last love. I met him at his father's party three years ago and instantly fell inlove with him. It was love at first sight. Since then I admired him and loved him secretly. His dad and my father were college friends. So, wheneverhis father would come to visit my dad, Daniel would tag along, and I would covertlylook at him behind the doors and windows.

And then four days ago, happiness knocked my door when his father came with the marriage proposal. He wanted this wedding to happen as soon as possible and here I was in the alter.

Daniel told me to refuse my father for this marriage on the second day by sending his personal assistant to my home. He told me that his boss wanted me to deny this offer if I was not comfortable with the idea. But that was the complete opposite. I did want this wedding. I wanted to meet him as well but learned that he was gone abroad to complete some incomplete work and would return a day before the wedding.

On the other hand, my father was emotionally extorting me. He was afraid that if something happened to him then what would I do. I could not blame him though. He was just following his fatherly instinct. The pressure I had on me from my father and Daniel's parents was agonising. I loved my father head over heels which one of the reasons I could not say no. He was already a heart patient and he just wished to see me happy. Apart from that, I would try my best to perform all the duties a wife should perform for her husband.

My love for him kept on increasing every moment I saw him. I guessed it was high time to spill the beans out. I finally planned to confess my feelings once the wedding was over.

My thought was distracted when I heard my father's voice.

"I'm giving you my most precious diamond son, please take care of her."

I was waiting for a response from Daniel but to my surprise I did not receive one. I was also disappointed when he did not hold my hand. I looked up at him and saw him looking straight. He was clenching his teeth and fist. I furrowed my eyebrows.

I tried my best to ignore it and took my position in front of him. He was looking too hot and sexy. His minty cologne was attracting me more. He was tall enough to intimidate me. I looked like a petite girl in front of him. He had that kind of face that could stop you in your tracks. His dark blue eyes were so deep that you could even get drown. His hair was perfectly combed to one side. He was looking devilishly handsome in that black tux he was wearing.

I was so lost in his eyes that I was not even concentrating on the priest words.

"Do you, Miss Linda Foscar, take Daniel Anderson to be your lawfully wedded husband, to have him and to hold him from this onward, for better or for worse, for richer for poorer, in sickness and in health, to love and to cherish; from this day forward until death do you part?"

I looked at him before giving my reply. It was heart-breaking that he was not even looking at me. But I overlooked it. I smiled and happily answered

"I do."

The priest asked him the same thing but before saying the same thing he squeezed my hand which made me winced in pain. He closed his eyes tightly and replied "I do" as quick as possible.

"You may kiss your bride."

I was waiting for this moment. I wanted to feel his lips on mine.

When once of a sudden he kissed me roughly. I bet my lips were swollen by now. He was looking so angry that he pressed my arm more tightly.

Why was he behaving like this? Did I really make a mistake by accepting this marriage?

'I don't know the wedding vows exactly so I lifted it from the internet.' Pls give this book a chance.
Thank you.
Bye bye!😘
