WHAT IT TAKES TO FLEE FROM LOVE

Claudia's POV:

I stood there with my father waiting for my entry in the wedding hall, the isle is waiting for me. I am getting married to this man, the most handsome man I every laid my eyes on.

Austin Carter, A handsome tall muscular well established man. He has all the money in the world, all the luxury one can ask for, but he.... He is ruthless, he cares for no one, As far as I heard he isn't even close to his parents.

I am just 25, I can't be married at this time. I am cherished by my family, I am Claudia Authur, the beloved daughter of Authur family, they cannot do this to me.

How I ended up here? I asked myself.

I don't even love him, he just stood in front of me one day announcing that he was going to marry me. And my father being too focused on his work and money, agreed.

I ... I didn't even knew I was going to marry him till yesterday. I have no way to go now.

I am dressed in a sleek wedding dress, whit thin strip on the both side, small delicate flowers where embedded on them, While the rest of the dress gave elegant look. I felt the cold air by the slit in this dress.

I had the minimal flower high lighting through the light vale. I took a deep breath, these heels are too high... My feet hurts or the pressure of this sudden unwanted marriage is weighting too much on me.

The only where you can find flowers is in my hand, I am clutching these roses tight, the stocks of them are about to break at this point. The white bow hanging by the flower is bothering me.

He set this wedding as perfect as he pleased, close family and friends are here, every person whom I can ask to help is here. But truth is they all have some part in this disaster.

I never heard a positive word about this person, so never crossed a path with him trying to be unnoticed, until he showed up in my life. He knows my father but I thought he never knew me... Then how I end up on his bride list.

The door opened, the music started. I had a glance at the inside, everything is so perfect but so scary.

My Father said, "Claudia .... let's so, I promise you will be fine..." I looked at my father, I have so many complains, but I am too shunned to speak.

I was walked in, every eye is on me. My Future husband is standing at the end looking at me, waiting for me. I see determination on his face, like he won or something. No happiness though, or I can't read him.

I can't be stuck in loveless marriage, I can never marry a person who doesn't love me. I don't love him either. There is no point of this arrangement. How even he managed to get me here all dressed up anyways?

My legs stuck to the ground as I was in front of him, He is a Ruthless man, he never ever can be kind. He barely speaks, No one speaks good about him. How can I marry a person as Him?

I noticed he had a glance at me as my father was about to pass him my hand.

What am I doing?

Am I ready to let this happen to me?

My feet moved back, I saw sudden change in his eyes. I had a glance at my Dad and Mom. My Elder brother Jason who was standing there beside my Mom.
