''I need some time." His voice had lowered. 

''Terry, I um...'' I trailed off, I have to tell him something just as heavy, so he won't think he's the only one hurting. I'm hurting too, and I've never told him, just like he's never told me. The things I've been holding within me has to be revealed to Terry. I never felt the need to reopen my barely closed case to anyone, but right now, it was beyond necessary. I know what it's like to grieve for a loss. I relate so heavily. I'm a sorrowful victim of rape, and a form of neglect. I know pain.
I decided on ambushing Terry with my problems. Better to rush it out of me, then slowly ease it in to him.
''Terry... I was raped!'' As the words left my lips, I immediately teared up, and was keen on rushing everything else. Terry turned to meet my eyes. ''My parents thought I admitted to being raped to cover up losing my virginity. They didn't believe me!" I looked into Terry's sorrowful eyes and for once my pain and sorrow had outdone his.

When strangers from completely different backgrounds get married... -- Shifting as the cool breeze toyed with my senses, I sighed at my husband standing so far away, leaning against the yacht's railing and drowning out the world behind him. He didn't want to be here. He didn't want to introduce me as his wife and have to deal with social disapproval. In the world of upper-class snobs and elites, I was a complete outsider...an unwanted addition. I had no place among the rich, no way to make many accept my crass and clumsy ways. My husband hated me, and his family was all ready to make him move on to a lady who would match his standard. I simply was an ignored wife, a wounded reject and a lonely fool. -- Sweet and friendly Maya could never repay the favours bestowed upon her by the great ladyship of Naveria 'Madam Geena'. That 70-year-old woman had not only treated her like a daughter, given her shelter and a well-paying job when she first arrived at Hill City to earn for her family but was also her wisest mentor. However, with favours comes expectations, and Maya just couldn't say no when Madam Geena asked her to marry her spoiled grandson 'Demir', tame his rakish ways, and adopt the ways of the rich. It was a heartbreaking offer. Demir wasn't known for dealing with people below his class, but Maya really didn't have a choice. Madam Geena meant the world to her. Thus, after getting married to a rich spoiled brat, feeling her heart melt with fondness and watching as he completely ignored her existence and humiliated her ways, Maya was soon to realize that despite belonging to different worlds and having their own reasons for choosing to get married, both she and her husband were hurting in their own ways. Their worlds might have been completely different, but they both were equally miserable, lonely and broken. (Featured on Wattpad Chicklit's Reading List)
