ARRANGE MARRIAGE: TO CLAIM YOU MINE CH-5

Continuing

ELI'S POV-:

Xaden King (ML) 《DOMINANT ALPHA》

(grabs Eli's hand and helps him climb up the stage)

Eli Blackwood (MC)《DOMINANT OMEGA》

(nervous)

I climb up the stage, now standing in front of the man I'm marrying. I just hope that the slap mark isn't visible to him.

Xaden King (ML) 《DOMINANT ALPHA》

(brings Eli's hand close to his mouth)

Xaden King (ML) 《DOMINANT ALPHA》

(kisses the back of his hand)

Xaden King (ML) 《DOMINANT ALPHA》

He kisses my hand gently, while his eyes linger on me. I gulp hardly, having an urge to run away right this instant. A conspicuous smirk on his face makes me feel all sweaty.

Xaden King (ML) 《DOMINANT ALPHA》

You're Eli Blackwood, right ?

Eli Blackwood (MC)《DOMINANT OMEGA》

(gulps) Y...Yes

Xaden King (ML) 《DOMINANT ALPHA》

(straightens up)

He stands upright, but refuses to leave my hand. I know he can see how nervous I am, and he seems in contrast, like he's happy.

Suddenly he intertwines his hand with mine, sending a wave of shiver down my spine. My feet automatically start moving back but he slowly pulls me closer to himself.

Xaden King (ML) 《DOMINANT ALPHA》

Eli Blackwood (MC)《DOMINANT OMEGA》

(widened eyes)

Xaden King (ML) 《DOMINANT ALPHA》

I'm Xaden King, your husband

Xaden King (ML) 《DOMINANT ALPHA》

It's a pleasure to have you with me, Eli

Eli Blackwood (MC)《DOMINANT OMEGA》

(blinking continuously)

His words penetrate my ears as I'm left dumbfounded, he has already assumed himself to be my husband, and we haven't even exchanged rings yet.

Eli Blackwood (MC)《DOMINANT OMEGA》

(breath hitches)

Xaden King (ML) 《DOMINANT ALPHA》

......

Xaden King (ML) 《DOMINANT ALPHA》

You don't seem very happy, Eli

Eli Blackwood (MC)《DOMINANT OMEGA》

(bites his lips) I...I-

Xaden King (ML) 《DOMINANT ALPHA》

Well, the priest is here

Xaden King (ML) 《DOMINANT ALPHA》

I'll listen to you later when we're alone

Eli Blackwood (MC)《DOMINANT OMEGA》

......

I see the priest walk towards us, as he stands behind us and gets ready to start the ceremony. It all feels unreal to me, like I'm dreaming, and it's just a nightmare.

Priest

We shall start now

Priest

Eli Blackwood, do you take, Xaden King, as your lawfully wedded husband, to have and to hold, from this day forward, for better, for worse, for richer, for poorer, in sickness and in health, to love and to cherish, until death do you both part

Eli Blackwood (MC)《DOMINANT OMEGA》

(gulps)

I feel the precipitation forming on my forehead, my limbs going numb in extreme nervousness. I don't know where to look or what to say, I just wish to go back home and cry my heart out.

Xaden King (ML) 《DOMINANT ALPHA》

(squeezes Eli's hand)

Eli Blackwood (MC)《DOMINANT OMEGA》

Ugh.....

Eli Blackwood (MC)《DOMINANT OMEGA》

I....I do

Priest

(smiles)

Priest

Now getting to your vows (to Xaden)

Priest

Xaden King, do you take, Eli Blackwood, as your lawfully wedded wife, to have and to hold, from this day forward, for better, for worse, for richer, for poorer, in sickness and in health, to love and to cherish, until death do you both part

Xaden King (ML) 《DOMINANT ALPHA》

I do, with pleasure

Xaden King (ML) 《DOMINANT ALPHA》

(smiles)

Priest

(smiles widely) Now the groom may kiss the bride

Eli Blackwood (MC)《DOMINANT OMEGA》

(shocked)

My eyes wander towards my father, and I, for the last time wish that he'd stop this marriage. But when he sees me looking at him, he turns his face away.

Mason Blackwood(MC FATHER)《RA》

(turns his face away from Eli)

Eli Blackwood (MC)《DOMINANT OMEGA》

......

Eli Blackwood (MC)《DOMINANT OMEGA》

*Why did I..... Even look for him?*

I feel Xaden pull me closer, and suddenly I'm trembling profusely. It's my first kiss, and I'm going to give it to a complete stranger.

Eli Blackwood (MC)《DOMINANT OMEGA》

(scared)

Xaden King (ML) 《DOMINANT ALPHA》

Worry not, I'm not forcing you (whispers)

He cups my cheeks and pulls me closer. I shudder feeling his cold hands caress my ears slowly and gently, it tickles and itches when he rubs my earlobes.

Eli Blackwood (MC)《DOMINANT OMEGA》

Ugh...(mòans slightly)

Xaden King (ML) 《DOMINANT ALPHA》

......(staring at Eli)

Eli Blackwood (MC)《DOMINANT OMEGA》

S... Stop rubbing my ear

Eli Blackwood (MC)《DOMINANT OMEGA》

Xaden King (ML) 《DOMINANT ALPHA》

(bends towards Eli)

Eli Blackwood (MC)《DOMINANT OMEGA》

(flinches)

I thought he was going to kiss my lips, but instead his lips rub against my forehead before he moves down to kiss both my cheeks gently.

Eli Blackwood (MC)《DOMINANT OMEGA》

Uhh....

Xaden King (ML) 《DOMINANT ALPHA》

(pulls back)

Eli Blackwood (MC)《DOMINANT OMEGA》

*Thank god....He didn't kiss me forcefully*

I hear the crowd murmuring and people cheering us to kiss. His eyes lock with mine as he stares at me without uttering a single word, and then he bends again, this time pecking on my lips quickly-

Xaden King (ML) 《DOMINANT ALPHA》

(pecks on Eli's lips)

Eli Blackwood (MC)《DOMINANT OMEGA》

(jolts)

Xaden King (ML) 《DOMINANT ALPHA》

(immediately pulls away)

Eli Blackwood (MC)《DOMINANT OMEGA》

......

The crowd hoots in delight as some tell us to kiss more. But I wouldn't call that a kiss, before I could feel his lips on mine, he had already pulled away.

It reminded me of Eris, as he always pecks on my lips. From the time we were kids, he used to peck on my lips and run away, I never felt uncomfortable or upset because it was just platonic between us and we both are omegas.

Xaden King (ML) 《DOMINANT ALPHA》

We should get everyone's blessings now

Eli Blackwood (MC)《DOMINANT OMEGA》

.....(nods)

Xaden King (ML) 《DOMINANT ALPHA》

.....

Xaden King (ML) 《DOMINANT ALPHA》

Don't be nervous, no one will eat you (chuckles)

Eli Blackwood (MC)《DOMINANT OMEGA》

O...Okay

Atleast he doesn't seem rude.

We both get down from the stage as an old lady comes scuttling towards us, her face brimming with happiness.

Amanda King(Ml Grandmother) 《RO》

(holds Eli's hand) Aren't you a pretty bride (smiles)

Eli Blackwood (MC)《DOMINANT OMEGA》

T... Thanks

Amanda King(Ml Grandmother) 《RO》

No need to worry, Darling

Amanda King(Ml Grandmother) 《RO》

I'm always here when you need me

Amanda King(Ml Grandmother) 《RO》

I just wish that you get along with this rascal here

Xaden King (ML) 《DOMINANT ALPHA》

(emotionless face)

Xaden King (ML) 《DOMINANT ALPHA》

Eli, go meet your father, before we leave

Xaden King (ML) 《DOMINANT ALPHA》

I have something to talk with my grandmother here

Eli Blackwood (MC)《DOMINANT OMEGA》

Okay (pulls his hands back)

Eli Blackwood (MC)《DOMINANT OMEGA》

(shows a small smile to Amanda)

I walk away from them, leaving them to have a chat. But I don't go to my father, instead I just stand in a corner, letting the realization hit me that I'm married already.

Suddenly I hear footsteps nearing me, as I look up to find-

Eris Williams(MC FRIEND)《DOMINANT OMEGA》

(smiles) Finally found you alone

Eli Blackwood (MC)《DOMINANT OMEGA》

......Eris

Eli Blackwood (MC)《DOMINANT OMEGA》

(bites his lips)

Eris Williams(MC FRIEND)《DOMINANT OMEGA》

It's okay, Eli

Eris Williams(MC FRIEND)《DOMINANT OMEGA》

(walks towards him)

Just seeing his face makes me wanna cry, I wonder if I could just leave everything and cry in his arms. He walks towards me, gently wrapping his arms around me to pull me into a warm hug.

Eris Williams(MC FRIEND)《DOMINANT OMEGA》

(hugs Eli)

Eli Blackwood (MC)《DOMINANT OMEGA》

Hic....Hic

Eris Williams(MC FRIEND)《DOMINANT OMEGA》

It's okay, everything will be okay

Eli Blackwood (MC)《DOMINANT OMEGA》

I....I don't know

Eris Williams(MC FRIEND)《DOMINANT OMEGA》

(holding back his tears)

Eris Williams(MC FRIEND)《DOMINANT OMEGA》

Eli, just hold on

Eris Williams(MC FRIEND)《DOMINANT OMEGA》

I promise.... It'll get better

He gives me hope.

But I fear it's just false hope, and I'm afraid to grab this string of hope. I rest my head against his chest, hearing his heartbeat as I close my eyes, remembering how I cried in his arms every time I got bullied at school.

He also got bullied, but he'd always hug me tight as I sob into his petite figure. We both only had each other, and I'm glad we're still there for one another.

I just wish....He doesn't end up like me.
