I Took An Arrow Through The Heart

My billionaire dad chooses a husband for me. People claim that Sebastian Lambert is a fine gentleman who's absolutely in awe of me. He seems easy enough to deal with, so I agree to the marriage. The wedding is held at the biggest hotel my family owns. On the big day, as I push open the doors in my wedding dress, a bucket of foul-smelling blood comes crashing down on me. The scene inside is even more horrifying. What was supposed to be a pure and romantic ceremony is now decorated with giant spiders and cockroaches. Grotesque clown faces grin at me from the walls. At the altar, there's a black coffin. Sebastian's adoptive sister, Ruth Lambert, strolls over with a group of people. She covers her mouth in fake surprise as she remarks, "Oh my, Claudia, you look like a pathetic mutt right now!" Laughter erupts around me. Holding my anger back, I coldly reply, "All of you, get out." She crosses her arms, arrogantly looking down at me as if she's on some pedestal. "Come on, Claudia. Seb personally asked me to surprise you. I put in a lot of effort to decorate your little wedding. You're telling me to get out? I don't even get a 'thank you'? Do you need me to teach you some manners?" She signals to the people next to her, and two of them step forward, trying to force me to my knees. Stunned for a few seconds, I pull out my phone and call Sebastian. "Is this the so-called surprise you had your sister prepare for me? Forcing me to kneel before her?"

There were five things I was absolutely certain I wouldn't miss even if I became blind: -The first one was the fact that I was a slave and my life would never go back to the way it was. -The Second one was the Duke who bought me was a dragon hiding his identity for a reason I didn't know. Weren't dragons supposed to be powerful and all? Using his race might give him a huge advantage in politics. -The third one I was certain the Duke was hungry for me and I started to love him. Furthermore, he was cursed and the cursed ones didn't live for more than a year. Conquering him was a lost cause; a battle with less than 50% of success. However… Was it really necessary to label numbers on everything that was happening? -The Fourth one: Was it really necessary for Dotoria, the human land, to curse the other races existing within its borders? I wasn't confident about the statement. Nonetheless, everyone was looking for a wish granter gem. The nine kingdoms collided eying the gemstone like a prize for dominion. -The Fifth one had the magic of belief in it; Do you work on your dream or stay back hiding behind a smoke of mist fearing failure? I wanted to escape but I gradually lost interest in it. The world was a mystery in my eyes and I was taught to never engage in a battle with less than 50% of success. Do I even have a dream because the only thing I wished for was the reason I was a slave. People were driven by dreams and goals and I didn't have one yet.

Ang tanging gusto lang naman ni Rhyna ay maghanap ng trabaho. Pero mukhang hindi sang-ayon sa kaniya ang panahon. Dahil matapos niyang mabasa ng ulan ay isang ubod ng supladang buntis naman ang kaniyang nakilala. Hindi lang doon natapos ang kaniyang malas. Dahil matapos nitong mailuwal ang sanggol, pumanaw ito. Ngayon naiwan sa kaniya ang responsibilidad sa pag-aalaga sa bata dahil na rin sa utos ng Lola nito. Ayos lang naman iyon sa kaniya. May susuwelduhin naman siya sa pagiging ina ni Renzo. Ang hindi okay ay ang pag-uwi ng ama nitong ubod ng kaantipatikuhan. Pero siguro kailangan niya nang maniwala na totoo ang mga binabasa niyang pocketbooks. Dahil pagkalipas lamang ng ilang linggo'y nagbago ang pakikitungo sa kaniya ni Rios. Ngayon inaalok na siya nito ng kasal. Ang malala pa'y gusto na raw nitong bigyan ng kapatid si Renzo.
