PLEASE tell me what you think. This is my first story.
I am Gabriella Howe. (deeply sighs) Many would say I am an abuse victim, but that isn't true.
You see I am the wife of Ian Howe. Ian loves me more than any one will ever know. He always acts tough but he is kind and gentle and sweet when its just the two of us.
My husband used to be a thief, but, now we are treasure hunting. I know it sounds a little fairy tale pirate like. I first thought it would be pirate like…that is until Ian conned me into it.
Perhaps I should talk about why I'm married to an ex thief.
My father was an abuser and my mother had a rather large sum of money saved up for me to inherit when she died.
My mother found out she had cancer when I was 17. She began to worry about me, being as when she died she knew my father would do anything to get that money. Even kill me. Mother thought that if I was married "he" couldn't harm me. Mrs. Howe was a very close friend of my mothers. Mother found out Mrs. Howe had a son Ian.
I became unbearably mad. Mother was going to make me marry a man 12 years older than I, but after close thought I decided that being married to this man was better than being killed by another.
So at 17 I was getting ready to marry a man who was 28. I had until my 18th birthday to get a wedding planned.
I had no friends to miss when I was married so the only problem was that I didn't know my fiancé…Oh and I was scared of him. I would see what happened.
