Only For a Year: Contract Marriage

Laura's POV

It was raining heavily and I was walking down the street,the tears did not want to stop,I did not even know where I was going. Mike,the only person I had left in this world betrayed me,he cheated on me,and I swear to make him pay. All of a sudden a pair of car lights flashed on my eyes and I heard a beeping sound,then pain struck my body like lightening,then I heard a screeching sound and I fell to the ground,a warm liquid flowed down my nose and head and I knew it was my blood.

My body went numb and I could not feel anything else than pain. All I wanted was to die,my life was a mess. My mom died when I was 5 and my father later found out that I was not his child and took me to the orphanage when I was 8. It was there that I first saw Mike. He was not an orphan but he run away from home to the orphanage,I fell in love with him and he liked me too so we started dating when I was just 15.But now...,I don't think he is the same Mike I knew. He has changed completely.

"Master,she is hurt"

I heard someone say,then I found myself drowning in a pool of darkness.

When I opened my eyes,all I could feel was pain all around my body. My throat was hurting and I needed water so badly. I turned around to see my environment and I found out that,I was in a very expensive place,it looked too expensive be in a hospital I taught.

As I continued looking around,I finally saw a pair of grey eyes starring at me. I tried to ask him what he was doing here and where I was but I couldn't say anything,he stood up and walked towards me but paused near a small table and poured a glass of water and continued walking towards me. He came near stretched out his hands to give me the water and turned around to leave. I slowly drank the water and stared at him going back to his seat. A man entered dressed in a nice suit, he looked like he was in his 60s to 70s.

"We are so sorry for what happened to you"

He said with a friendly smile on his face. He then continued

"We would pay for the medical bills and make sure that you fully recover"

I wasn't even listening to what he was saying anymore,memories of what happened before the accident started flashing through my head. Tears began to flow again. I really wished I was dead. But then I remembered that I had to take revenge on him,and I would make him feel the same pain I went through. I needed someone powerful, someone who would support me no matter what,but what drew my mind back to the present was the last sentence the man said

"If you still are not content,you can ask for anything"

I looked at him with my wet red face "really", I asked and he nodded. I thought for a long while and finally came up with a plan,

"I want to marry your master"
