Chapter 1 : The death

No this cannot be, I was clouded with emotions and hurt as I stared at the lifeless bodies of my parents

"Annah look at me", aunt fionah's voice cut through my thoughts but I refused to look at such a wicked filthy person "I said look at me!!!" she said harshly, I raised my head contemplating whether I was doing the right thing by looking at her.

" you are such a beautiful girl who came from betrayal of my twin sister", betrayal? What betrayal was she saying.

" okay, I will be kind enough to tell you what happened. Annabelle you thought Rosemary your mother was perfect..." glowing tears could be seen in her eyes, and also hatred " Rosemary took everything from me, God knows I loathe her for taking every price, scooping the spotlight from me ha ha ha ha... " her voice trailed off as I heard bitterness in the way she laughed and cried at the same time.

" such a sweet 20 year old girl she gave birth to after getting intimate with my lover ", what wait... My father was her lover.

" he was till your mother was betrothed to him", as if she read my thoughts she answered the question.

" what.. Wait my... Father... it... no it cannot be..." she cut me off laughing " well it was done. Your mother was beautiful just like you, green eyes, reddish hair... Most of your features came from Rosemary. In greenfield the village we were born as twins " she wiped a falling tear smiling.

" my mother grace, gave birth to twins, your mother and i. We grew up with rumors saying the beautiful one which was your mother was the light child and I was a curse because my beauty never out shone hers... Despite that your mother pretended to like me and treat me well.... "

" well my mother never pretend..... ",

" shush annah you don't know anything about rose "

" I know everything about her, you betrayed someone who had genuine feelings towards you aunty. She cared for you... " my horsey voice broke as tears fell from my eyes.

" no she was not!!! " she yelled, " she stole Steven from me, I thought since she had no choice at the bethroyal she would respect our sister bond and not get intimate with him but..... Hahahahaha", she laughed and cried " she became pregnant just months after they got married... Imagine the pain annah, just imagine it!!!".

I just stared at the mad woman in front of me, what a scumbag... How could she... How could she kill her blood because of the false insecurities she had. I could not believe my ears, well she had been good at pretending to be the perfect aunt over the years wow.

" am I not kind enough annah", she kneeled to my level and patted my shoulder

" incase you are thinking of your future, I sold you to the people from the south"

OH NO!!!! " you can't.... You can't be serious... No no no no no..."

" well the transaction is already done", my aunty said " at least I benefited from their death, I got money to look after my children".

" ma'am the carriage is here" I stared at the stranger wide eyes with tears glowing in my eyes for I can say the 100th time that day.

"no no please... Please don't no no please"

" Mark take her with you. Tell Mr twein I want the remaining amount of money left" my aunt said.

" no no no please don't. Not to the south" I screamed almost crying with rage.

The stranger with orange hair started dragging me outside of my parent's house.

" bye annah...", my aunt raised her hand as she waved at me

Outside the house I could tell that it was almost mid day " what are you going to do with me" I asked out of fear and curiosity.

"....." he sighed, "that's not for me to decide" he opened the carriage door and pushed me inside, it was painful but I didn't care at that moment " then who is going to decide?"

"your buyer which I don't know", he closed the door at my face.

" what buyer.. Please tell me I need to know...." my questions were in vain as the man had gone to start of our journey.
