Chapter 6 - Say I Do

~~Having noticed trouble, Draken went back inside the room and waited for Emma to enter. First, he shut the door and locked it, second, he pinned her against it and thirdly, he covered her mouth to stop her from screaming. Her face was just inches away from his.

"Don't move," he whispered, while counting the minutes for the men to pass by. He stared closely at her, the long silky black hair and eyes shining like a star, her soft skin and soft lips pressed against his palm. His heartbeat increased and felt shivers run down his spine. She ignited a fire inside him that wanted to consume her there and then, but being a gentle man and not wanting to scare her off he slowly released her.

"What are you doing? are you insane? You should be lying on the bed and....." Emma tried to say but he cut her off.

"We need to leave right now" Draken said, grabbing her hand and pulling her out. For a man who was injured, he seemed to have so much energy.

" But where are we going?" Emma asked but he didn't heed her question.

"You agreed to marry me, so we're going to get married," Draken simply said as soon as they were out of the hospital.

" That soon!!!! and what's with the mask...Hey!" Emma replied before he trapped her by the nearest pillar.

" I'm injured and sick, do I want me to infect u?" He lied. How could he even tell her that he was currently on a certain death list.

" And yes, we should get married as soon as possible before you run off,"

"But how, why now? I...I..." He kept on cutting her questions short, more like avoiding them.

"You ask too many questions, if you don't keep quiet, I'll think of other ways to make you." Draken replied slightly removing his mask and bending down a little closer to her face since he towered over her.

'Kiss?' was the first thing that came to Emma's mind.

"Alright fine. I won't ask you just...stay away.. " Emma tried to push him away but it was pointless. His body was like a brick wall, her soft hands couldn't even move him by an inch. Lucky for her a taxi pulled up beside them and he dragged her in, he had all this planned out.

The taxi stopped at a small court house and juat as they were about to enter, Emma wanted to run away.

"Where do you think you're going?" Draken asked pulling her back by her crossbag.

" I agreed not to ask questions.. but I didn't agree to you bringing me to such a place," Emma replied, still trying to escape but the man before had no intentions of letting her go. Without hesitation, he sweeped her off her feet onto his shoulder and walked into the court house.

"Since you can't do it yourself, I'm more than ready to help" he told her.

" You man!!! aren't you supposed to be injured and weak?!! Why are you so strong?? Let me go!" Emma struggled in his grasp but nothing could be done. Before she knew it, Draken put her down infront of a judge already waiting for them.

"Sir, you both just have to sign the papers and exchange rings.She'll then be legally your wife." the judge said before Draken signed and handed Emma the pen.

" Sign it" he said but she was still hesitant.

"Uhmmm...I've thought about it. I'll just apply for a loan and pay you back, I really can't...

." Before she could even finish her sentence, Draken pulled her into his arms and kissed her softly unexpectedly.

"You owe me my life, I'm now your responsibility. You'd better sign the papers, and Say I DO," he whispered in her ears and that was her weak spot. Emma immediately signed the papers.

"I do take you as my husband" she even gathered courage to put the ring on his finger hurriedly. For Draken he took his time, kissed the third finger on her left hand before putting the ring.

" You're both now husband and wife legally" the judge declared before stamping it.

'So melodramatic! What was all this for?' Emma kept asking herself.

"Well now wife, take me home" Draken said with a smug look on his face. He'd trapped her and there was no way she could escape.

"Fine, but you shouldn't complain,, my home isn't a five star hotel" Emma replied before they headed out.

Unlike the lavish hotel rooms and mansions Draken was used to, Emma's home was the opposite. More of an apartment, quite peaceful and simple with a kitchen, a living room, bathroom and bedroom.

" Welcome home!" Emma said as soon as they had arrived. But the billionaire prince wasn't used to such a place.

"You're probably hungry, I'll cook up something for you. Take a seat" Emma said heading to the kitchen. Meanwhile Draken took a closer look around the house. It was not all that organised like his old room but he was willing to adjust if it meant having Emma close and by his side.He looked around until he froze, shocked by what he'd just seen..
