Desperate for Love 3: Inside the House of My Evil Husband

Feli prepares Shani for the wedding. Everything Bria wears on this event was new and shows she really was the daughter of an elite man. She was looking pretty wearing the traditional Maria Clara, and well ornamented blouse that truly stands out she was a daughter of the towns captain. She also wore a moss green choker with a gold pendant of the virgin Mary.

Everything she wore that day was very much against her well. It's just that she can't stand the fashion back in the days. Wearing clothes that was very uncomfortable and makes you wear a sauna 24/7. While riding the Calesa (carriage), she can't stop herself fanning so fast while glancing the people walking around the streets. Shani doesn't understand why the people were mad specially ladies who walk along their lovers. She also noticed some men were hitting on her while others looks at her with judgement.

The Calesa arrive on a church and a handsome young man held her down the transportation. She was surprised to see her Coachman was good-looking and very presentable. He even ask her hand to send her inside. Shani feels shy but she can't help herself accepting the offer. As she walks through the aisle, she noticed it feels like a wedding but not a typical wedding. She was feels that the man she's holding with was the man she would marry. But something is off, she doesn't feel the spark on both of their own. It seems like they were not in love with each other.

She wants to back out from the marriage, since she knew she doesn't know any of the people around her and she just wants to know them first before being attached with them personally. But she can't, 3 lives in a game was too precious, specially she doesn't know how long will she stay in a game. Suddenly she remembers there were some process on a traditional wedding back in this era. So when they were in altar she speak up with pride and ask.

"I haven't seen you around the house doing the pamamanhikan. And also, the chrch required those practices before a pair gets married."

But the people around her seems to hear nothing. Then she realized she was not on a historical time but a creative historical created by the game creator who seems to be not good in researching the history of the country's culture and values. She has nothing to do but to continue marrying the Coachman.

When they arrive in the altar there is no priest in there but the gold sparkling letters shows up.

"Get married 'Yes' or 'No'" two choices but only one should be the answer.

Shani immediately refuse and click no. Suddenly her should be husband grin and she realizes that she was already in trouble. The man takes out the gun and followed by his men then they shot everyone in the church living no innocent NPC alive. He told her,

"You should have married me. Now you put your entire clan to death." Then a loud bang echoed and Shani falls on the floor dead.

A second later she wakes up from the moment she met her maid Feli. She was breathing heavily as if she just died. Then AIturo appeared giving her warning from the system.

"You just experience your first death your life goes to two. Now you finally have your answer today. Rest assured that when you entered the church you will automatically be sent to your new home.

And just like what the AI said, she was immediately sent to a new designed house. A very spanic engineered structure. Shani then thought that the wedding was a shoot gun wedding. It seems that her family owes something to this man she married. But she can't understand why she was forced to get married by him when clearly on his eyes shows nothing but hate and rage.

When they entered the house a woman wearing a European fashion welcomed them. When the woman called her daughter, she then guessed it's her stepmother since the aura really suits to the character of evil and cruel stepmother. Shani also noticed that her husband was way to polite and feared her stepmom. He mano (a way of respecting elders) to her and even plasticly smiled at her. She then remembered it was this lady who announced her getting married after she fainted.

Her stepmom called Shani's maid Feli, and ask her to take Shani to her new bedroom. Inside she then enterviews her maid about her husband. Luckily her maid was fully feed with gossip and immediately spill every information she received.

"Your Husband's name was Lauro Minetez, "Santino" was only an alias her since he was a son of the outsider of Minetez clan. Some says it's his Pet's name since he was like a saint and very religious and good man. I also heard he has a lover name Meliah who was on beaterio, she haven't heard about Lauro's marriage she would be surprised and depressed hearing the sad news. And besides he was only forced to marry you senyorita, because senyora Brujah knew Lauro's evil intentions to the colonizers. She threatened him, about losing his job as the captain general here in Lucean. Lauro can't let his plans be ruined so he accepts your stepmother's offer of marriage."

Feli might look ragged, but her information is incredible, it made Bria amazed. But Feli said Laura was named Santino because he was good and kind man just like a saint. But why does his actions on her previous life shows Lauro was ruthless, and killed everyone on the church. She wants to judge him but she can't. What she saw previously is the truth, she just witnessed the true side of this man. She can't change her opinion because she heard Feli talks about this man having a sad story. Her opinion cannot be influence because of her maids word.

The only way to find out if Feli was not biased towards Lauro, because he was handsome, is through sneaking and secretly listening to their conversation. She asked her maid to join her but Feli was too afraid to do it. Feli tried to stop her but the witty Bria was to quick and dudge her maid and proceed to her plan.

Feli hides on the living rooms wall that separates the dinning area. There she heard how demanding her stepmom is, and how she loves to control every decisions to Shani. She then feels guilty when she heard that Lauro asked the news about her sick mother and her lover Meliah. Brujah assures him that her mom was fine and also Meliah too. But she requested Lauro to stop thinking about Meliah since he was now a married man.

"Tonight, I hope you can sleep with my daughter have a child immediately."

When Bria heard her stepmother's word she stepped back and accidentally shove the vase decorated on the dinning room. Her heart race and her adrenal immediately sends actions on what to do. She run back her room and pants while her maid was nervously asking her what she did wrong. When she finally catch her breath, she told her about the honeymoon. But Feli was too innocent even though she keeps on explaining her what it was. But she can't, maybe Geli was just designed to be innocent NPC.

Suddenly somebody knocked on her room. And it was the saint Lauro. He was now back to his evil side. He asked Feli to leave them alone and clean the broken vase scattered on the floor. Bria feels her heart was racing. She can't move nor speak as her husband comes closer to her face to face. She has nothing to do but to keep on leaning away until her body lies on the soft sheeted bed. She then crossed her hands, close her eyes and look away from the guy.

"I have my period."

Lauro gives a smirked and slowly caress Shani's hair in which gives her some goosebumps.

"You're thinking too much binibini. I just came her to see if you cut yourself from the broken vase."

Bria turn back her head and look at him in shame. She then pushes Lauro's body with her index fingers showing she abhorred him. When Lauro was now straight up, Bria pretends nothing happened but a complete misunderstanding to their actions. She then excuse herself to go outside to breathe some fresh air. So she called out her maid Feli to go with her.

When Shani walks out of the room. Lauro whispered to himself as he turned her expression more sinister.

"If you are my enemies pawn then I'll be happy to slowly kill you. I will never let you get into my head."

Shani walks around the house's backyard. It has plenty of plants their and their was even a tiny pool for fishes. She walks around fanning herself and happily breathing fresh air after the thrilling event that happened. Suddenly one of the maids bumps her purposely and throws her pale of dirty water towards Shani with intentions. When Feli saw that the maid was clearly scheming she pushed her hard and made the maid fall to ground.

"Hey why are you rude. I didn't mean it to happen."

Feli seems not convinced to the maids words so she warned her she could be kick out or be punished for bullying her miss. Shani stops her maid thinking it's just nothing. But the maid continue to defend herself making a scene until she spoke out her real thoughts. She pointed out everything would all be fine if Shani doesn't seduce Meliah's lover, Lauro. When Shani heard it she then can't control herself and slaps the maid. But Lauro who just arrived and saw the scene. He called out his wife and scolds her for bullying commoners. Shani feels bad so she went back inside biting her lower lip forcing herself not to cry. Feli assist her miss and gaves a hard stare to the scheming maid.

The maid was once proud and accomplished. Not until Laura pulled her arms and warned her not to meddle his affairs. After that he lives her alone and followed his wife. The scheming maid feels her employer was not under the even Shani's love potion. She can't let her miss Meliah left out and sad.

"Binibini Meliah, you're the only hope for my master. The witch just cast her some evil spells to seduce him. Now she controls her. Comeback now and save him."
