The Bad Boy And The Mermaid
Chapter 32
Blue
It was time.
Time for me to finally take the marriage vows with Hunter.
An hour ago when Adrian brought my brother, Apollo to into my room. I was shocked and I hadn’t known what to say. We’d stared at each other for so long, I’d started to wonder if it was a dream.
Without thinking I’d ran into his arms and sobbed into his chest. It’s during that time I realized how much I’d missed my family. To have my brother here on my wedding day was making me even more emotional.
And then a new fear had crept into my mind.
What if he forced me to leave with him?
I was surprised when Apollo didn’t ask me to leave with him, only asked me if I was sure about my decision.
“Blue, you’re getting married to a human. Marriage is a union that’s not easily broken, at least not for us merfolk. If this Hunter takes liking to some other woman and decides to get married again, you will suffer along with him.”
“I trust him,” I said.
“You’ve known the man for just three months; you hardly even know his character.” He said.
I placed my hand on my heart, “I’ve read his thoughts, and I’ve seen the deepest part of his feelings for me. He loves me. He would never break my heart. I won’t marry anyone else.”
Apollo had just nodded, “I knew this would happen.”
My gaze snapped at him in surprise. He went on. “I sensed this the second I knew that you were staying on land that you may have fallen in love with a mortal.”
“I can’t help how I feel.” I admitted, “I miss our world, but also I cannot leave Hunter.”
Apollo pulled me closer and kissed my forehead. “I trust your decision, aderfí, but I need to speak with the human and I’ll judge him myself. If he is hiding his true feelings in the pits of his heart, I’ll find out.”
I smiled, “He’s a good man, my Hunter. You won’t find any faults in him.”
“I’ll be the judge of that.”
And then my brother had left and for the next thirty minutes, I’d been beside myself with worry. I was scared Hunter would say the wrong thing and maybe set off Apollo. If Apollo made one bad impression about him, it would stick with him permanently. Hunter would never get a second chance to prove himself.
When my brother appeared smiling and told me everything was okay, I hugged him once again and thanked him.
I was so, so happy. It was scaring me.
My brother walked me down the aisle with all the guests looking at us with awe. My full attention was aimed at Hunter.
He looked like a prince. With his golden-brown hair so nice and thick, slight stubble of golden hair grazing his jaw, he had the mature today. Those warm silver eyes looked adoring. The cream tux fit him so perfectly, I was having a hard time breathing just looking at him.
He gave me a huge grin when he saw me walking towards him and his eyes stayed focused on me.
If I wasn’t mistaken...
I saw his eyes fill with tears. I’d never seen Hunter cry. He quickly began wiping his tears. Fred whispered something in his ear.
Why was Hunter crying now?
Had Apollo said something to him?
Or had he realized that marrying me was a wrong decision and was crying because he couldn’t cancel the wedding before now?
All at once, I felt scared and I knew I’d stopped smiling.
