The Unwanted Bride Of Atticus Fawn

The Unwanted Bride Of Atticus Fawn Chapter 19

~AUTUMN~

I couldn’t believe my eyes. The video was on replay in front of me. This was no doubt from today. Anya and Atticus are dressed in the same clothes that can clearly be seen in the video. Plus, Atticus did tell me that he was going to see Anya before the ceremony started. And he also showed up late.

Not to mention the scent of her on his body. I got a horrible whiff of it the moment he joined us. I knew she had to be closer to him than I would have liked. It’s the reason why I’d been avoiding eye contact with him since he joined us. I couldn’t look him in the eye. I was scared of what I would see. If he’d been that close with Anya, there is no telling what happened between them. My heart hurts from just the thought of what happened after the camera had cut.

The video had cut right before she tried to kiss him, and I wondered if he’d let her. I knew Atticus would never cheat on me once we were engaged, but the truth remained that he wasn’t officially committed to me when this video was taken. Did he take one last kiss to remember what it felt like before he destroyed his life by marrying me?

I feel my body sway at the thought of him kissing her on our engagement night. First, Anya slaps me, and now this. How could things get any worse than this? My biggest fear of tonight was coming to life. I was right; Anya was out to destroy my engagement night.

I held my head as the whispers got louder. The crowd wanted to know more. I couldn’t hold on much longer; my legs were failing me.

Atticus rushes forward and picks me up into his arms before I can hit the ground.

I’m not aware of what happened after he walked me out of the room; I’m still in shock from the video. Everyone would have plenty to say. I’m sure half of our school was laughing at me, and the other half, feeling sorry for me.

Atticus slams his room door shut as he lays me down on his bed.

I watched as he paced up and down in front of me. It looks like he was having an inner battle with himself.
