Chapter Four

Christine pulled the comb through her hair as she looked at her reflection. Tomorrow, she would be married. Never in her wildest dreams did she think she’d be someone’s wife again, but then, she never dreamed that someone like Owen would sweep her off her feet. He was romantic and charming and adventurous

And part of her wondered if she was about to make a mistake. After all, how much did she really know about Owen? She hadn’t even talked to Calvin about the marriage. He would disapprove. And it wasn’t even the disapproval that she worried about. She knew that he would be disappointed.

Feeling anxious, she put the comb down and took a deep rattled breath. Was she really going to go through with this?

“Christine! Christine! Open up my darling!” She heard the slurred words echo from the open window, and she turned abruptly. Curiously, she stuck her head out and looked down.

Owen, holding an open bottle of whiskey, danced and weaved on her porch. “Oh Christine! I have a craving that only you can satisfy.”

“Are the drunk the night before our wedding?” she teased. He looked up and hiccupped.

“Not drunk,” he boasted. “Just a few celebratory sips! After all, I’m about the wed the notoriously hard-to-pin down Lady Christine. That is an accomplishment!”

Frowning, Christine considered his words. They didn’t sound like a man in love. “You’ve had more than a few sips,” she admonished. “What are you doing here?”

“I just wanted to test the merchandise before the big day. After all, everyone else in town has had a taste of you,” he slurred as he opened his arms out wide.

Christine gasped. “Excuse me?”

“Oh, don’t be like that my sweet. I have a hard cock that I desperately need to put in your….”

“That is enough,” she interrupted through clenched teeth. “I don’t know what has gotten into you, but I chose to keep our union platonic until after the wedding. I will certainly not bed you when you’re drunk and disgusting. Go home, Owen, before you do something that you regret.”

Just like that, his disposition turned nasty. Smashing the bottle against the wall of her house, he began to pound on the door. “I thought I’d at least get a good fucking out of this, Christine. Open the door!”

“Owen, stop it!” she hissed. “What has gotten into you?”

He pushed from the door in frustration and looked up. “You don’t think I actually love you, do you? No. This was just to get back at Calvin. But when I heard of your reputation, I actually looked forward to this. He’ll never put me out of my home when you’re my bride, and I get to have the most fuckable woman in town.”

Her stomach clenched as she stumbled back from the window. Tears filled her eyes as she put the palm of her hand over her mouth. She’d been a complete fool to think that he actually loved her.

Christine could only thank her very soul that she didn’t sleep with him. He started pounding on the door again, and she knew she couldn’t stay in the house.
