Claimed By A Tattoo Part 1

Before my father passed away when I was ten, I used to think that matrimony is between two people that love each other dearly. That was until my mother passed away. I had believed in that until Liam- my stepfather had married another woman. There was not an ounce of love between them and the words they used to call each other were nothing close to good. They were together for their selfish reasons.

My father had never treated my mother the way Austin is treating me. He never used vulgar language let alone abuse her. From what I used to see, they were a really happy couple. I never expected Austin to treat me that way but I also never expected him to treat me the way he is treating me. Hell, there was no time to think from the time I got to know about the matrimony till it was done.

I looked at Austin, astonished by what he had said. I was not going to strip and give away my innocence to him. I stood there frozen on my spot not showing any signs of obeying his command.<
