Brutal Vows by withlove_R

A loveless beginning was thrust upon them, an unspoken nightmare that cast a shadow over their marriage from the very first moment. It was as if fate itself had cruelly dictated their union, stripping away the warmth, the passion, the tenderness they longed for. As the old saying goes, "The most powerful warriors are patience and time," and in this cruel tale, those words proved painfully true. They watched in silent agony as fierce warriors-unyielding and relentless-unfurled their brutal vows, exposing the raw, unvarnished truth of what bound these two hearts-vows forged in darkness, soaked in suffering, and silent despair. Was that love? Could what they shared truly be called love? How could I have deserved such a fate-being loved, or even loving in return-when my heart was so battered, so wounded? How and why did I love you? These questions clawed their way through my mind like relentless demons, each one more desperate, more agonizing than the last. And yet, amidst the chaos of doubt and pain, only one unwavering truth remained: unshaken, unbroken. In the depths of our souls, we made a vow-a sacred promise to God, to the heavens, to ourselves-we vowed to love, to love each other, to love us.

I smile at her causing her smile to drop. "Don't answer that, you proved you were a freak when you kidnapped me. Anyways, since I have lived with my father for 18 years, I know what men like you and him are like, there's no way for me to get out of this.
