AVERYFate's a bitch. Now just see what situation I'm in. My one hand is carrying an engagement ring while the other hand is holding open the door of a room. The very room my fiance is buried deep in someone else. Just when I thought my life would get better, just a little, by marrying him. But who was I fooling? I'm stuck with this life forever. Fate... Fate is a fickle thing. It changes sides when you least expect it. Funny enough, they don't even notice me at the door as their dirty moans and groans fill my ears up till now. "Felix," I called and they both paused. It took a few seconds before he turned his neck around to look at me. His face was drowned in sweat... Sweat from his "hard work." His eyes widened when they met with my eyes. Of course, I wasn't crying. Why waste my tears on someone like this? I tilted my head to see the brunette girl that was desperately trying to hide her face from me. I guess she knows he's getting married today. And my attire isn't even helping

AVERYI blinked at the man whose eyes were kept solely on mine... Looking deep into my soul. I suddenly felt naked with him looking at me that way. I blushed scarlet and I immediately averted my eyes to hide from him when I heard, "The groom?" "Do you have a problem with your ear? Or do I need to repeat that as well?" "Insolence!" My father yelled suddenly getting up from his chair. I'm shocked he's just standing though. He had always had a bad temper. "Oh please, Mr. Roosevelt... Spare me the lecture." The man replied and my father let out a sharp gasp his eyes scrutinizing the man in Armani Suit like a hawk watching his prey. "So you do know who I am? And you still have the guts to say that to me?" "Do you know who I am?" The man questioned in return and I turned my head to him. Who exactly was he? There are a few men who can stand up to my father in this country and this man, whoever he was, definitely wasn't one of them. But what I'm looking at... I really don't know what

"You bitch! You have the guts to show your face here again?!" "After disgracing the family like that?!" "I would kill you today!" "I can't believe you did that, sister.", were the words I was faced with immediately I stepped into the hotel. Right now, I'm laying down on my bed curled up into a ball. My crying eyes looked up at the white huge gown on the floor. My fist tightened at the scene that flashed before my eyes. Remember when my sister said I knew what would happen if I didn't get married? Yeah, it happened. On my back are uncountable strokes of where the whips landed. According to my father, the Gallardo's refused to reschedule the wedding ceremony when they found their son beaten and tied up like a goat at his wedding. And it was my fault. All my fault. And yes, you guessed right... No dinner for tonight. I remember the look on my sister's face. Oh, she so hates me. And so do I. I hate her. So much. I hate my so-called Mother. I hate my Father. I hate this family

AVERY"When did you say she was going to wake? It's been three days straight and she still has shown any sign of waking up. Ramon, I'll kill you with my own hands if she doesn't wake." Slowly, I tried to pry my eyes open to see where I am but I can't. I feel weak all over. I'm in pain, especially my backside. I feel like a truck ran me over. My head is pounding like someone is drumming inside my head. I don't see anything nor do I remember anything. Even the voices I was hearing just now can no longer be heard. I feel too weak to carry my seemingly heavy body. I see the light but I can't seem to move toward it. Something is holding me down. Restraining me from moving forward. I tried to fight it to no avail. I just want to sleep. Again, I succumb to darkness.The next time, I was feeling much better. With a groan, I raised my hand to my head to massage it. I feel tired. With a heavy groan, I open my heavy eyelids. I'm thirsty. Parched."Avery?" I heard someone call.That's my name.

AVERY"Why not? You're my wife." "Doesn't mean you can see my bare body! We haven't even consummated our marriage. And this was only a marriage of convenience. We don't like each other. I'm pretty sure we'll divorce-""No Divorce." "What?""That's my condition to help you. No Divorce even after I've helped you to get your revenge.""What?" I asked turning my body to him. Way too fast cause I winced in pain immediately after."And... You can't tell anyone the reason why we married in the first place. Our marriage will be a secret only known to the people within the walls of this home. Deal or no deal? The bureau would be open in a few hours.""Woah. You didn't tell me this before I signed the book. Hell, we don't even like each other! And you want to stay together forever?" I asked in disbelief."Do you want revenge?"Of course, I do.My expression seemed to have given him a reply because the next he said was,"Then, to keep my end of the deal, you have to keep yours. Do we have a de
