He was broad and muscular , clearly the result of hitting the gym definitely not Ares back . What have you done , Ana ? Who is this man ?

Tears welling up , I placed the paper back on the table . My heart was still racing as I pondered my next move should I just leave or confront this man who was still asleep and demand an explanation ? Hey … I froze in my spot at the sound of that voice . It was whole and still hoarse . When I turned to look at the speaker , I saw the man sitting on the bed . I glanced down at his body . Like his back , his chest was also broad . Whats wrong with you , Ana ?! W who are you ? What did you do to me ? I fired off one question after another , wiping the tears from my eyes . He suddenly smirked at me and shook his head . Dont make me laugh , lady . Dont you remember anything ? A answer my question ! Who are you ? Why … Why is there a marriage contra here ? Why am I wearing a wedding ring ? Why are we both naked ?

I cant believe it… you took advantage of me- Not really . You were the first to approach me , Miss . If only you could remember everything . We had fun last night . We were both very drunk . From what I saw last night , I think you enjoyed it too , he interjected , making me feel even more dejected . I knew it . That was my first time drinking hard liquor .

Our wedding is even more official after what happened between us last night … he said in his deep voice , quickly closing the distance between us . I was about to walk away from him , but he quickly cornered me against the well . I automatically looked up because he was so tall .
