Contract Marriage: From Vows To Vengeance

What good could come out of a loveless marriage birthed from a bitter feud? Amelia Hudgens' dream of a marital bliss filled with love was shattered when she was married off to Daniel Theodore as a pawn for an ancient vendetta. Her husband, Daniel, was a cruel and abusive man who tormented her with his mistress and his fists. He shattered her dreams of happiness and freedom, leaving her broken and hopeless. Hope bloomed, fragile as a butterfly's wing, when she discovered life stirring within her, but fate had other plans. A tragic accident took away her unborn baby, leaving her shattered and alone. Daniel blamed her for everything, even in the hospital where she was recovering. He showed no mercy, only malice. Amelia wanted to end her misery, to jump from a bridge and drown in the sea. But as she was about to take the final plunge, she crossed paths with Cullen, a mysterious man who saved her from the brink of death. He was kind and gentle, a soothing balm for her wounded soul. He offered her a chance to start over, to heal from her past. But could Amelia trust him? Could she rebuild her life and find happiness again? Could she stand up against Daniel, who would stop at nothing to get her back? Was Cullen's help all genuine?

Chapter 68

Cullen watched Amelia as she drifted to the world of sleep. He wrapped his arms around her more securely as if she would slip off.

Staring at her, all his harsh thoughts disappeared. The voices in his head that usually talk at night disappeared. They were no more.

He fixed his eyes on Amelia's sleeping face and thought about his mother. Amelia seems to have so many things in common with his mother.

The peaceful face of the sleeping woman in his arms, accompanied by her soft snore stilled his heart. And slowly, for the first time in so many years, sleep came naturally for him.

His eyes fell on their own without the help of his sleeping pills and before he could relish the feeling of natural sleep properly to understand it, he dozed off and joined Amelia in the world of sleep.

Breathing softly in the embrace of the next person, the world around them faded away. Like tiny particles of dust, the life around them washed away.
