CHAPTER 1.

" Pretite, you listen to your father " A woman in her early thirties scold a young woman in her eighteenth year who was sitting on the ground beside her bed crying and wailing as she answered in a shaky voice " W...w..why me, what sin did I commit to get this. WHY!? ".

" Pretite, listen we didn't want this too but what can we do, he is a dangerous man and we didn't have enough money for that kind of amount, so, please Pretite I beg you to understand. " The woman said in a calm soft tone to her as Pretite started shaking her head " Then, why did you borrow that large sum of money and what me to pay for it? Why can't you use something else to pay ? I am not your only daughter you could have get one of your loving daughter to marry HIM! " She shouted as her father gave her a hard slap on the face. " YOU BASTARD, I raise you after your useless mother left you yet you couldn't even do the slightest request l ask from you" He yelled at her " And listen you are going to marry him whether you want it or not". he said as he went out of the room with the woman who was her stepmother.

Pretite was left all alone crying as her sixteen year old personal maid, Cara, came running inside as she started petting her mistress, of all people in the whole world she has served her mistress was the most kindest of them all and she has been taking care of her since she became her maid because that what she said she was even though she as been sold as a slave to them, then why did her loving and kind mistress who has been like a sister to her deserves all this treatment. They may not be a royalty but they are nobles so why can't she gets a noble treatment. Cara thought to herself as Pretite suddenly raised her soiled tears and swollen face and faces her saying

" Cara, I am going to get married in three days time and I want you to dressed and prepare me for my wedding. Okay?. "

Cara was shocked but nods her head as she promised " I will surely dressed you up and I pray that you know what that meant ". " Don't worry, I know what I am doing. They want to see me get miserable but I will not " she replied in a menacing tone and Cara get that tone since she has been with her for more than six years and she understands her mistress very well. So, she only nods her head and helped her up as she took her to the bathroom to freshen up.
