The Switch by ChelseaNorris5
16 parts Complete Mature
Set immediately after the events in Souja. Duchess Contessina DeBaringer has been betrothed since infancy to the last man in the world she wants to marry. However- a year before the wedding to him and squeezing herself into the wedding dress, she comes under agonizing pain and faints. Upon examination- she is diagnosed with incurable cancer and side sickness and given only months left to live. Two days after the diagnosis- an offer comes in for his second daughter Millicent's hand in marraige that is too good to pass up and her father accepts immediately. However the offer is from a Baron Thaddius Salgria- of Salgria Shipping for his eldest son- Kragan. Who has spent his whole life on ships, either seaships or skyships. And Kragan is a natural sailor, when he's not designing, commissioning and building the ships himself. And for Millicent- the insult to the injury is that Kragan and his family are orcs. Millicent is furious with the match and outright refuses. So Contessina suggests that her father switch the marraige matches between herself and her sister. And to keep the news of her condition a secret- lest it be known and the family honor be ruined. Contessina and her father hatch a plan to pull it off. The doctors give her betrothed a fake but secret dianosis of being an horse riding accident and that she is now barren in order for herself to be released from the betrothal, which works. And the same lie about the horse riding accident is enough to ward off suspicion as to why she is taking medication to mask the symptoms of her real fatal illness to the Salgrias. But upon meeting her new groom- Contessina realizes that he is her love match and everything she never knew she always wanted and needed. So will she be able to keep her deadly secret to herself long enough to save her family from ruination- and more importantly- save Kragan from ruination too?

"You're unbearable!" He kicks her with utter contempt. "Please tell me where I'm wrong, causing you discomfort was not my intention," she said crying, causing him to hit her against the ground again. "Do you think you can live with good intentions? Didn't you have all the time you wanted to change and learn? You still dare to ask for more!" He yells at her with hatred, he blamed her for being the one will cause a woman to be beaten; He didn't want to be that kind of man. However, what he lived with her caused him to bring out what he hated the most about himself from within. -Forget it love- said a woman who was next to her- it's not worth it- this dog was supposed to be her friend, she was supposed to support her just like she did; however he managed so that he and she hated each other and thus be able to steal it. The woman on the floor does not know how much she was framed and harmed by her naivety, nor did she know that this was the beginning of her misfortunes. Because of that woman she did not stop suffering, wherever she went she suffered verbal or physical abuse and everything was orchestrated by this woman; she didn't know until she was about to faint. "Why?" She asked this unarmed woman without knowing why she hated him so much. She never did anything to hurt him. She just laughed viciously without answering him, she didn't have to waste her time with an insect; leaving La to die imprisoned in the house where she was kidnapped. "Answer me!" She got up from her bed screaming "Eh? This looks like my room; Did I reincarnate myself in the past?" She ran to the bathroom just to see that her assumption was correct. She thanked the heavens for this second chance by promising that she wouldn't be fooled a second time.
