FLASH MARRIAGE; CHARMED BY THE RUTHLESS BILLIONAIRE CEO-Chapter 254: Married In A Flash

Perched on the edge of the soft mattress, in a poorly furnished bedroom and looking like a terrified rabbit frozen by the sight of a prowling hungry wolf, Tina held her breath, tears streaming down her reddened swollen eyes.

Her dishevelled hair fell loosely on her bare shoulders and face, covering the repulsive hickeys left all over her nude body by the heartless bodyguard who now claimed to be her husband.

On her left ring finger was a tight-fitting cheap wedding band that had refused to come off.

On the wall opposite was a picture frame of her dressed in a cheap wedding gown and smiling foolishly while entangled passionately with the flat-nosed ugly security guard.

Tina had no memory of what had happened to her for the past twelve hours. But her body bore testament to a man's savagery. She now knew that heartless monster security guard spiked her drink.

Holding the bedsheets firmly above her chest, Tina listened for any form of movement outside the bedroom door.

When she heard none, she slowly climbed down from the bed still holding the bed sheet, her breath rapid and her body trembling.

She was about to take a step forward when the door was suddenly thrown open.

Before her was the shirtless security guard, holding a tray containing a bowl of steaming soup, some toast and a glass of orange juice.

Tina impulsively jumped back on the bed pulling the sheet to her neck as if he hadn't seen her nudity. She was repelled by the ugly-looking keloid on his chest which made her feel sick to the stomach.

However, she was stunned to see a lot of fresh scratch marks on his body. She couldn't help but wonder if she did that.

"I'm sorry about earlier. You pushed me."

Carl spoke softly, his gaze warm and friendly as opposed to the monster who attacked her earlier when she reached out to her mum.

"Stay away from me, you beast," Tina warned, her voice quivering.

"A beast! That's not a kind word to use on your husband?" Carl's lips curled up in a wicked smile, his eyes filled with amusement, lust and hunger.

"I'm not your wife, you maniac," Tina yelled, moving backwards on the bed as he slowly approached the bedside.

"Of course, you are, my darling," Carl said putting the tray aside on the small round stool in the room.

"You are my wife and I've shown you proof of our marriage certificate. You needed to see your face, you were so happy and crazy about me."

"Shut up, you f*cking asshole," Tina screamed, hoping someone would hear her voice and come to her rescue. "You kidnapped me, drugged me and took advantage of me."

Carl smirked, sitting down on the bed, masking the fury growing inside of him. He was trying not to lose his temper like the previous time.

"Is that what your tiny brain told you? That I kidnapped you? Come on, baby, we both know the truth. I saved you from getting shredded by that woman and I brought you to my home to save you from the public who currently want to cut you to piece."

"That's not true. You are lying. There are people out there who still love me. I have friends. I have a family. You can't take that away from me." Tina sneered.

"How about we go out right now and test that theory? We could even call your friends right now and see if they will pick up." Carl stood up stretching his hand towards her but Tina didn't move a muscle, knowing he was telling the truth.

"Suddenly having cold feet?"

"F*ck you" Tina spat out.

"You're welcome." Carl gently sat down on the bed, a wicked smirk curling up his lips.

"If you must know, I did you a huge favour by marrying you. Not every man out there would marry a woman whose pussy is the screen lock of almost all the weirdos in town. The least I can get is thank you."

"I'm not f*cking married to you, asshole." Tina raged on, throwing a pillow at him which he easily caught.

"You tricked me into following you just to satisfy your animalistic desires. You've won. Now take me back to my family."

Carl leaned closer, making Tina scurry backwards until her back hit the bedrest.

"No Tina, I haven't won. We only made love. I haven't succeeded in making you fall hopelessly in love with me. But you will. This I promise."

"You are sick in the head if you think I will ever love a beast like you." Tina spat in his face, the sting of his initial slap still burning her cheeks.

"Yes, Tina..." Carl moved closer, trapping her between his powerful arms, his eyes glowing like a predator tasting fresh blood.

".... I'm sick. Very sick in the head. Only your love can cure me. Only you can heal the scar in my heart. You rejected and humiliated me in public once. But I won't let you reject me this time."

Tina whimpered, her gaze lowered and her body almost convulsing with extreme fear.

Carl roughly grabbed her by the right arm, tearing the sheet off her body and forcing her to look into his eyes.

"You are mine, Tina. Mine to love. Mine to hate. Mine to toy with. Mine to destroy if you ever try to leave me or sleep with another man. Your days of philandering are over.

You are my wife. Get used to it."

Tina gulped down the lump in her throat, more tears streaming down her reddened cheek.

"Please, let me go. I'm sorry for whatever I did to you. But you can't keep me here. I don't love you. I never will."

"Yes, you will, Tina. This marriage is until death do us part. We are going to love each other. We are going to have beautiful kids whom you will learn to love and adore. We will live a simple and satisfied life in the country home I'll build just for you. No more flashy lifestyle. No more media. And I will be the one providing all your needs. Your days of destroying other women's homes are over. It's time to build yours. So the earlier you start adjusting to your role as a submissive wife, the better it will be for you."

Carl roughly crashed his lips against Tina's, kissing her passionately to his satisfaction before pushing her aside as if she meant nothing to him. He stood up from the bed and strolled toward the small television in the room. Inserting a video CD into the player, he turned on the television.

As he waited for the video CD to start playing, he turned around to look at Tina, his voice gentle but his expression grim.

"Enjoy your breakfast sweetheart. You will need all the strength to please your very hungry husband. Afterwards, you will need to call my mother-in-law and tell her everything is fine. If you play nice, we could visit your parents in three months after our honeymoon."

"Honeymoon!" Tina's already widened eyes threatened to pop out from the socket.

"Yes sweetheart, I have already made all the arrangements for our special honeymoon in Frost Fall."

With those cold words, Carl left the room.

"Frost Fall!" The picture of Celestine and her four kids all holding a kitchen knife and pointing it at her, made a cold shiver run down her spine.

The sound of laughter and clinking of glasses forced Tina's eyes away from the door to the television.

The sight of her looking all flushed in the same cheap wedding dress like the one in the picture and Carl in a cheap-looking suit, holding her hand made Tina's stomach twist.

"When did this happen?" Tina's mouth hung open, her pounding heart threatening to leap out of her chest.

'Tina Stevens, do you take Carl Hoffman to be your lawfully wedded husband...' a strange-looking man dressed in a clergymen robe was reciting the wedding vows to her in the video and she stupidly said, 'I do'.

"This is not happening!" Tina covered her ears, as the man formerly proclaimed them husband and wife. But what followed immediately after the video left Tina gasping for air.
