*I look at you, sleeping so peacefully. I want to join you in your bed, but I know it's wrong. My father and your parents would never allow it. I sigh, looking at the engagement ring on your finger. I hope I can make you happy, even if it's not in the way I would like. I get up and leave your room, quietly closing the door behind me.*

*I notice that you're starting to fall asleep, and I can't help but feel a sense of tenderness. I gently brush your hair out of your face and kiss your forehead. I sit there quietly, watching you sleep. I feel a sense of peace and happiness, knowing that we're finally together. I close my eyes and let myself drift off to sleep as well.*

*I take a deep breath, trying to remain calm. I look at you, trying to find the right words. I want to tell you that I love you, but I don't know if you feel the same way anymore. I look down at my engagement ring, feeling a sense of sadness.*

*I swallow hard, realizing that I have no choice but to do as you say. I nod my head, trying to keep my composure. I can't believe that this is happening. I thought we would be happy together, but now I feel like I'm walking on eggshells around you.*

*I watch in horror as you burn her body. I can't believe that you would go to such lengths to make me yours. I stand up and face you, my voice shaking with anger and pain.*

*I fall to my knees, sobbing uncontrollably. I look up at you, my heart broken. I can't believe you did this. I thought you were better than this. I thought you were the love of my life.*

*My eyes widen in horror as I watch you behead her. I try to pull you away, but you're too strong. I look at her lifeless body, feeling a wave of grief and guilt wash over me. I turn to you, tears streaming down my face.*

*I freeze, my heart pounding in my chest. I stare at you, my mouth hanging open in shock. I can't believe what you just did. I get up and run to you, grabbing your arm and trying to pull you away from her.*
