NovelEnglishChristopher seemed to have taken Bella's feelings into account and did this to amodate her and express his thoughtfulness. However, all Bella felt was disgust.
He was psychotic! "Is this supposed to be skind of joke?” Jace spoke while glancing at Bella, whoseplexion was sickly and pale. Then he looked at Christopher, who seemed eager for approval, before chuckling. "I am not Miss Thompson's relative, and I am not your friend either. Why should I be your witness? Having to be here and watch this entire thing go down is jarring enough for me, and now you're expectingto be a part of it? Quit mocking me." Bella's eyes were swelling with tears at this point. She cast a pitiful look at Jace.
Jace blinked sporadically before turning away from Bella's gaze.

Despite Jace's refusal, Christopher was not upset. He continued to cast a doting look at the woman lying stiffly in his arms. Then he grew exuberant again at the thought that he was about to be married.
"It doesn't matter. I have the heaven and the earth as my witness. That is more than good enough." His voice choked, and he seemed to be at the point of tears. He then looked up at the goddess statue that stood tall and mighty over them.
The eyes of the statue were slightly narrowed. It stood as a symbol of all things beautiful and holy. He had ordered it to be carved after Bella's features.
Outside the glass shed, the trees were shaking violently amidst the raging wind.
The wedding had an awfully grim and depressing tone.
"With the heaven and earth as my witness, I, Christopher Iverson, shall take Bella Thompson as my wife." Christopher forcefully pried Bella's fingers and made her interlace her fingers with his. Then he continued to declare in a jarringly hoarse voice, "From this day onward, I shall love her through all circumstances, through the times of joy and all the mundanity of life. I will always protect her and never leave her, no matter what happens. I will love her forever until my heart stops beating." Trails of tears streamed down Bella's colorless cheeks. She wanted to pry her hands away, but she could not manage to, no matter how hard she yanked away.
This was no wedding. This was torture! She felt as if she were thrown into a pit of fire, burned alive.

Bella waspletely drenched by the rain and seawater splashed up by the wind.
After Christopher took her back to the room, she shivered from the cold.
"Bella, let's go take a shower. I'll hold you." Christopher suggested while lowering himself to plant a kiss on her forehead. Bella's eyes were red with resentment. She turned toward him and snapped at him. "No, I don't want to shower!" Christopher stared at her angular shoulder blades poking through her skin, resembling a pair of dainty butterfly wings.
He smiled gently. "Are you embarrassed? We're married now..." "We're married?! Hah!" Bella hissed through her teeth. Every word she spoke was laced with sheer hatred. "Christopher, it's tyou drop your ridiculous, disgusting, and O self-obsessed act." "I'm not acting, Bella. We just got married. You are my lawful wife." Christopher's heart burned with an intense wave of emotion and desire to devour her right then and there. He suddenly flipped Bella around and pinned her on the bed.
"Don't touch me!" Bella glared at the man who had been consumed with lust and was towering over her Tension and nerves ran through her Tension body as she began to squirm in his armas. "We still have time." Christopher's breath was strained and heavy. He began to unbutton his shirt while mumbling, "We still have tto consummate our marriage. We can do it until the next morning. mmMwWLlilOfiflo&1 mmMwWLlilOfiflO&1 mmMwWLliI0fiflO&1 mmMwWLlilOfiflO&1 mmMwWLliI0fifl0&1 mmMwWLlilOfiflO&1
