~LEAH~

What's all these, why is this happening? What's his reason to marry me? He helped me because he wanted to force me into marrying him, but why did he want to marry me…… I mean, I'm not in his class. I'm not the type of girl he would want to marry.

I must be stupid. I don't know why he wants to marry me, but I'm kind of happy that he wants to marry me.

"Make a choice already," he jolts me up from my thoughts. I inhaled deeply, I'm stupid to make this decision, but I can't help it. I know that he doesn't love me, he wants to marry me for a reason, but I don't actually care what the reason might be. I love him and I am ready to marry him, besides I don't want to end up in jail because I can't pay him back all the money he spent on me.

"I... I... I ...... will marry you," I said in a whisper. He smiles softly.

"Good decision. You should be happy because it will be an honor for you to be my wife. Our marriage will take place in two days, that means you should tell your mother abou

     TWO DAYS LATER ~LEAH~Today is the day I will marry Jake, but I still haven't told my mum yet. I don't actually know how to tell her and the thing is that she didn't even know about the loan which got me into this mess. Right now my head is filled with a lot, I don't know what to do.How do I explain things to mum? I am certain that there is a reason behind Jake trying to marry me. How did he even know someone like me? I am so confused.I was in the kitchen washing the dishes while mum was in her room probably resting or stitching. The doorbell rang and it got me startled, my mind has been going through a lot that I feel like I will run mad any minute. The wedding will take place in an hour, and I don't think I'm even ready for it.I rinsed my palm and dried it. I kind of felt nervous to open the door. What if it is Jake? No, I don't think he knows my house or even thinks of coming here, but it looks like that guy knows a lot about me. I can remember that he told me not

    ~LEAH~"Who are you, how could you know much about us?" mum asked with a bit of a shaky voice."You will soon know who I am, but I advise you not to know who I am, because you can't take it in. Is either your daughter gets married to me or ends up in jail." "I will never allow you to marry my daughter." Mum snapped. Looking serious."Then let her get ready to rot in jail. You are powerless, you can't stop me from getting what I want. As far as money is concerned, you are just a livestock that can be easily gotten rid of" his last statement got me to take a quick glance at him with widened eyes."You bastard." mum gritted, he smirked. Why would he want to marry me when he doesn't love me? What is his aim?****I walked down the aisle with mixed feelings. I don't know if I should be happy or sad. I love the man I'm marrying today, but he doesn't love me. He is marrying me for a reason and I don't know if the reason is good or bad. Mum said that she won't be present at my wedding. She d

    ~LEAH~I felt a cold water being poured on me, I jerked up from my sleep breathing heavily. I had to sleep outside yesterday night at Jake's order, I thought he would have a change of heart and ask me in, but he didn't, he is cold hearted. I couldn't even sleep properly because of the cold, my body was freezing all night. I don't know what I did to deserve this, it is really ripping off my heart that the man I love is so mean to me. I can't believe I spent my wedding night outside in the cold, this is not what I've ever wished for.I was trying to recover from yesterday night's cold and now a cold water was poured on me. I wonder who did such a thing.I jerked up in anger though I'm still cold and right now much colder. My eyes caught a woman standing in front of me with a glass cup. She must be the one that poured water on me and who is she anyway? "Who are you and what right do you have to pour water on me in such cold weather?!" I snapped. She scoffs. I'm still freezing to deat

    ~LYDIA~"Enough! My daughter can't do something like this because she knows how much this house means to me. I know that you forced her to sign this document. Tell me, why are you doing all these? What have we done to you?""There is no need of shouting mother-in -law. This house lawfully belongs to me now, and there is nothing you can do about it. Just go in there and pack your bags, I only give you ten minutes.""I am not going anywhere, I will never leave this house. You can't take the memory of my husband away from me. You can take all things, but please not this house, please I'm begging you." I plead in tears. I didn't even know when I started crying. I can't afford to lose this house, it means a lot to me."Wow! Look who is begging now, but sadly enough your tears and pleads are not moving me. This is what I want Lydia. To see you suffer." He stressed the last word with venom."Why do you want me to suffer, what wrong have I done you. I only knew you as the world's celebrity an

The truth is that according to my mum, I am not a human. I came from a different world, a world far away from earth, that's why I possess different kinds of powers. Though I was born and raised on earth, it still doesn't stop me from possessing some powers which I inherited from my father.It is easy for me to kill Leah and her mother, but I can't do that now because I want to see them suffer. Lydia will pay for what she did and unfair enough, her daughter will also feel the pain.

What if her health condition becomes worse since the doctor has instructed her not to do hard work and take her rest."Mum," I muttered, standing on the kitchen doorway, she turned to face me."Leah," she in turn mumbled, her eyes wearing a teary look.

I winced in pain as I twisted my face in anger, but tried to re-twist it when I saw Jake standing tall in front of me with a belt in his palm.Wait.... Did he actually hit that on me, I couldn't rush out my anger as I endure my pain in silence.The belt left a mark on my legs, red marks to be precise, but why did he hit that on me? Here I am worried about him but here he is wiping my legs with a belt. I still wonder what kind of fate I have... So ugly. "Come downstairs now, I gave you thirty seconds for that and don't dare waste my time!" he grime out coldly and scrambles out. I flinched, he sounded so raw.... What does he want this time? I hope it's not something serious.I have no time to think now, he said thirty seconds and I need to be downstairs before then.I flung up and scuttle downstairs, I met mum there as we shared glances, Jake too was standing between us.I was thinking why he summoned me and mum, I hope it is not somet
