Dave Mitaka takes the Defiant family's prettiest daughter for a bribe in place of a debt owed by the family. Lita, the bride elopes a night before her wedding, leaving her elder sister, the not so pretty Reed, to suffer the consequences. "You'll pay for this Reed. Mark my words, you'll suffer the consequences!"
View More"Please Reed, I beg you, I've never asked you for anything, and I also know how bad I have been treating you, but please, help me out here, just this once." Lita pleaded.
Reed's back was turned to her, she was in deep thought, what Lita was asking of her is something she just can't do, she knows her mother and father will definitely kill her if they find out.Lita's wedding is tomorrow, their father owes a rich billionaire, and since they couldn't pay their debt, the man decided to take Lita as his wife.Lita was Reed's younger sister and she was the most beautiful, thereby, making her the most loved. Everyone in town admired Lita and no one ever seems to notice Reed. Even their parents favored Lita the most.Lita was in love with someone else, a guy who claims to be wealthier than the man Lita was suppose to marry. Lita has fallen head over heels in love with him due to the fact that he claims to be richer, and now, Lita was planning to elope with this guy. Now, she wants Reed to cover up for her, which is something Reed was finding difficult to do."Reed." Lita called, then she turned Reed to face her. "Please help me out. Just this once." Lita said, giving Reed her best puppy doe eye look."I don't think I cản Lita, what will mom and đad say, you know they'll kill me it they find out I'm helping you out with this, and besides, you can just tell them you don't want to get married, they adore you, and I'm sure they"ll listen to you." Reed said, trying to reason with Lita.Lita let go of Reed's hand. "That's not it, it's not even possible, you know we're owing him, he has every right to take me as his bride, mom and dad won't be able to do anything, they can't stop him, he has the power to make our lives miserable, he can even send us all to jail, I don't want this Ree, please." Lita said, then she began shedding fake tears."I love Michael, and he's the one I want to get married to.""Lita." Reed groaned."Please Ree, help me.""What is it that you even want me to do, hope you won't ask me to get married in place of you, because I can't do that." Reed said. Lita laughed. "Oh come on, that's not it.""Then what is it?""The thing is, I'll need you to tell mom and dad that I eloped with the man I love tomorrow morning, so you guys can flee from here.""What!!." Reed yelled.Lita immediately closed her mouth with her palm."Shhhh... shut up Reed, are you trying to bring mom and dad here." Lita whispered.Reed slowly removed Lita's hand from her mouth."I'm sorry, but are you crazy? Flee from here? Where do you want us to go, and why should we run." Lita rolled her eyes at Reed. "Because of Dave Mitaka silly.""If he finds out I eloped, I wouldn't want to imagine what he'll do, and to save us all from his wrath, you'll have to tell mom and dad so you guys leave this place.""This is crazy Lita, where are we even supposed to go?""You do not have to worry, mom and dad have relatives, I'm sure you guys can go to one of them.""What you're saying sounds so selfish Lita, you're not concerned about mom and dad, and how they'll feel if they find out about this, they love you so much.""You should reconsider this Lita, think of mom and dad and what they would go through knowing you eloped with another guy.""Don't try to lecture me, Reed." Lita snapped, surprising Reed."I've already explained things to you, you should just help me, and anyways, if you don't want to help me then leave it, I was wrong coming to you anyway. I thought you'll agree to help me since you're my sister, my elder sister, but no, you don't want to help. I'm sure you're doing this because you don't want to see me happy!" Reed's jaw dropped in shock. "What are you saying Lita?""The truth." Lita spat, glaring at Reed."If you won't help me, don't. But that won't stop me from leaving this godforsaken town with Michael, mark my words.""What If I tell mom and dad about your plan right now?" Reed said angrily.Lita smirked "Alright then, go tell them, and let's see if they'll believe you."Her words cut deeply through Reed's heart.Lita was right, even if she tells their parents, they won't believe her.Lita noticed the pained look on Reed's face, she sighed, then took Reed's hand. "Listen Reed, I wouldn't want us to fight, believe me. I already explained everything to you, all I ask is for you to convince mom and dad."Reed had a good heart, deep down, she knew she can't refuse her younger sister. No matter how bad Lita had been to her, she couln't say no to her."Alright then, I'll help you." Reed agreed.Lita screamed in delight, then she hugged her tightly. "Thank you so much sis, thank you.""It's okay." Reed replied with a sad smile."When will you leave?.""Tonight.".......................The moment their parents went to bed, Lita packed her little bag and left the house.Reed sat beside her window staring at the moon. A lone tear slipped down her cheek, and she quickly wiped it off. Tomorrow, she'll have to break the news to her parents about what Lita has done, they'll be devastated. Lita was the apple of their eyes, the beautiful Lita who the whole town admired because of her beauty, they'll probably want to kill her after finding out. After all, she was literally like a slave in the house.She stood up from her chair, went to her little bed and layed down. She didn't feel like sleeping, but she had to force herself to get some sleep.Dave Mitaka was a wealthy and powerful man who has a cold heart as well, the wedding will be done in a grand style, but what would happen when they find out that the bride eloped with her lover on the night before her wedding day, and not just that, her family also moved out on that same wedding day.Reed hopes her parents will agree to flee the town just as Lita had said. And with that thought in mind, she closed her eyes and gave in to the sleep that overcame her.My heart pounded against my ribs as I took a shaky breath, trying to steady my emotions. But as I turned to face the guests, my family, my friends, and most of all, the man standing just a few steps away, my voice trembled with overwhelming emotion."This isn’t just Kim’s wedding," I finally said, my voice thick with unshed tears. "It’s mine too."Gasps filled the air, followed by a stunned silence. Then, all at once, the crowd erupted into excitement.I heard my mother’s joyful sob, saw Kelvin blinking in surprise before his face broke into a smile. Kim squeezed my hand, winking, and Desmond chuckled beside her. But my eyes weren’t on them.They were on Dave.He stood motionless for a moment, his eyes locked on mine. Then, with the help of his crutches, he began to walk toward me, determination in every step.When he finally reached my side, he lifted a hand to my face, his thumb brushing against my cheek.“You’re crying,” he murmured, his voice thick with emotion.I laughed shakily,
Dave surely wouldn't say no to Desmond.Seeing that Dave had personally agreed, Desmond couldn't be more joyful.Hearing Desmond's words, Dave lowered his eyes slightly. Falling silent for a moment, he didn't promise Desmond immediately.I knew what he was hesitant about.In his current situation, it was difficult for him to stand on stage. He might need a crutch.As I was about to refuse on behalf of him, Dave spoke first, "Okay, no problem.""Then I'm leaving. I won't bother you two anymore!"Hearing that Dave had agreed, Desmond left.After Desmond left, I said with some concern, "Desmond is one of us. If you are in a difficult position, tell him directly.""I know." Dave looked up at the rehabilitation equipment on the side and said, "But we agreed on this a long time ago. I can't let him down."It made sense. Desmond had always been by Dave's side.They two should have agreed on this early.Dinner was a quiet affair, but in the best way possible. The kind where words weren’t alw
Dave and I lived in the town for a while.When we lived together, Dave would make love to me against my will with the excuse that it would be conducive to the recovery of his legs.Frequently, we didn't go to bed until the middle of the night. I was so exhausted that I didn't even know when he had gone to rehabilitation in the morning.One and a half months later, Dave's legs had recovered to a great extent. He could walk for a short distance without a crutch.On the last day of the rehabilitation training, the doctor told us in the rehabilitation room that Dave could return to the City, saying that he could finish the rest of the rehabilitation training at home.Hearing this, Dave bought flight tickets on the same day.We went back and packed up our things before setting off.The next night, Dave and I landed at the airport.After going back home, Dave and I didn't get Bryan back to our side for the time being. Dave had been quite busy because of his work.He worked overtime after m
Teresa walked gracefully and looked at us, asking, "What happened?"She looked as if she was watching a good show. From this, I knew that she surely had been eavesdropping inside for a while and that she surely had known what had happened by this time.Having been in contact with Teresa for a long time, these people were naturally close to her.Hearing her question, everyone told her what had happened.Teresa looked at me with an unconcealable smile on her face, saying to me, "People in this town are clean and simple. How can you act the same way as you did in the City? You are a discredit here.""He gave me the key." I defended myself.Teresa surely wasn't convinced as well, saying, "Even if you are lying, you have to make up convincing lies. Everyone knows that you and I are both kept outside here. He probably doesn't even know that you are here. How would he give you the key?"As Teresa spoke, she had a smug look in her eyes.Sure enough, after she finished her words, the ones arou
Picking up my cutlery and taking a bit of rice, I said, "I'm leaving tonight. I'll come see you every night in the future.""Why?"Hearing this, Dave was a little puzzled.I chuckled, "I won't tell you! Anyway, don't let others know that I've been here."I didn't tell him why. However, Dave was so smart. Seeing my expression, he immediately said, "You want to keep her in the dark, right?"I nodded.Since Teresa had put in so much effort to put on a show, I naturally wouldn't let her act in vain.He nodded.However, when I left, I didn't climb over the wall again. Dave found someone and gave me a key to the back door locked all year round.I left through the backdoor.The next morning, I went to the hospital as usual.Teresa wore a blue and white dress with knee length today.Sitting on the opposite side of the road, she stared at the hospital door in a daze.When I went over, Teresa looked up at me and said with a hint of disdain, "I thought you were gone.""No, I didn't."There was a
A long time seemed to have passed since we made love. However, Dave was quite familiar with my body. Hooking my arms around his neck, I looked at him and said, "I want you."I rarely said so.At this moment, I knew that by seeing what I did and hearing my words, Dave could be infinitely confident.Raising his head, Dave hadunconcealable excitement in his eyes.Reaching out and pushing aside the strands of hair on my cheeks, he said, "You have me.""You have me."After he said so, the ambiguous and warm atmosphere permeated the room.By the time I opened my eyes again, day...Someone outside knocked on the door. A nurse seemed to be calling Dave to do the rehabilitation training.I looked at Dave sleeping soundly beside me with my face slightly blushed. Last night, we had been making love for a long time. Dave seemed to have inexhaustible strength. One or two hours had passed only since we went to bed.Dave, like me, heard what the nurse had said outside. Without opening his eyes, he
