When a Genius Makes a Mistake

****Completed, but under revision.**** ***SUPER SLOW BURN MATURE 18+*** After struggling her way through university, Mina Harlow, a top tier graduate (and literal genius), with the aspiration of lifting her family out of poverty, was still living in the slums, taking odd jobs to earn a living. All of her hard work had been for nothing and her life is cast into turmoil because she offended the wrong Miss from a prominent family. Desperate to for her next source of income, Mina aligns herself with the wrong people, and finds herself amid several conspiracies that keep becoming more and more confounded by misunderstandings. She is mistaken for a spy, by one of the most influential families in the country and held captive as the confusion, mishaps and misunderstandings build up all around her. Under the extreme circumstance, Mina is thrown into despair, hatred and love all that the same time, but will the experience break her or make her ‘better?’ (This story is set in a fictional, modern day patriarchal society on the brink of a shift public opinion on the 'role' of the woman.) Excerpt: "Why are you crying?" "Because I'm stupid," Mina replied. The man laughed sarcastically. "I disagree. I think you are a very smart girl." "Being smart does not mean you can not be stupid." Who told her she was a genius anyway? ***THIS IS AN ADULT STORY WITH AN ADULT THEME. THERE IS VIOLENCE AND IMPLIED VIOLENCE. THERE IS ROMANCE IN THIS STORY, BUT IT IS NOT EXACTLY A LOVE STORY. ***

Chapter 840: Promise?

Mina knew better than to seek Leal out because she was certain that her husband would treat the man as an extension of his brother. To make up for it, she allowed Ian to do whatever he wanted to Joseph Karm, who sold their wedding invitation, regardless of his belief. From that day, her husband had been trying to massage and kiss her in to giving him information about her friend, and while it was tempting, it felt better to hold out, so she did. 

"Can you at least describe him to me?" Ian asked, rubbing his wife's visibly swollen belly with some oils he purchased to keep her skin from becoming dry and itchy. Based on Drax's advice, the sooner they addressed the issue, the less of a problem it became. 

"I told you, he has brown skin and dark hair."

"So does Oric Lamar; so, you aren't telling me anything."
