Belle woke up to start. Her body ached from having the deepest sleep she had ever done in her entire life. She moved to stand up but felt excruciating pain between her legs.

Well of course after you get married to someone you never love, it will be forced into you.

Gently she sat up leaning on her elbows for support and looked around the room. Her hair is messed up and she smells weird after having a wonderful sex life is what Gibson thought is the best but not for her.

It was the worst nightmare in her life!

She only noticed that she was covered by a sheet and naked on bed. The pain between her legs because of last night.

He really is a monster.

He didn't think twice or have mercy on her. She turned over where she found an empty side. Knowing that Gibson already left for school earlier.

And school is today. Dammit! Why today? Why not the next few days?

Sigh, she sees a note beside the bed under the table lamp. She read where it said, 'I'll see you at school, don't be late'. Yes, it's written by Gibson hand.

Just realized how beautiful his hand was writing on the paper.

She was completely sore and tired. In a moment Doctor Craig will pick her up for school and she is still in bed thinking the weirdest thing ever. She jumped off the bed, walked toward the bathroom and took a shower.

After showering, she looked at herself in front of the mirror. She was scanning herself. Puffy red lips from kissing the whole night and a hickey just beneath the collar bone.

She washed her face with cold water. She stood in the middle of the room. Notice another hickey all over her skin.

Why just now she notices everything.

"That monster never stops kissing me the entire night!" Belle growled.

Her face looks like a blobfish who has just been carried out from the ocean. Even after taking a shower she still looks the same.

She slapped her cheek softly. Damn you, MONSTER!

Last night was a rough night when she officially became his wife. Losing a virginity to someone you never loved.

Jake is her first love that Gibson took away from her. Jake. The boy she loves left her for New York.

Walking out from the bathroom, finding a suitable shirt for her neck so people would not see the marks. She combed her hair and tied it into a messy bun.

She looks absolutely gorgeous. Take a last glance over the mirror, then snatch the bags and go downstairs for breakfast.

"Look at you, Mrs. Gibson good morning", said Doctor Craig with. Belle took a step. "How's your day as Mrs. Gibson?"

"Don't mock me, Doctor!"

"Craig. Call me Craig or brother if you are comfortable. So are you ready for school".

She nodded weakly, said. "My life aren't I?"

"I notice".

He looks between her legs which he already sees from how she walks toward him. It's kinda weird, her legs bit apart and shaking knowing what that means.

Gibson really hurt her. "It's normal having that processing you know that".

"What!"

He pointed between her legs, "You know when husband and wife, at night, in bed". her face looked disgusted. "I shouldn't ask don't I?"

"Can we just go!" She slammed the door, Doctor Craig started the engine and drove away.

Before Belle arrived at school. Gibson has already been introduced as a new teacher in school. He's sweetly smiling, remembering the night he and Belle got married and the rest of the story.

Of course in the moment Belle will come over and be part of this school as a student not a wife.

Can't wait to see that coming.

"Pleasure. Thank you for welcoming me to this school. I'm surprised, hoping we are going to be good teachers for our students. Ferhat Warren, pleasure to meet all of you teachers".

Later. Doctor Craig turned off the engine, he turned to her and she did not move an inch since they were on the road. Not even the word. Maybe he could help her in case she feels in pain or something.

"DON'T!"

He was shocked, "I hadn't said anything". She looked at him.

"I know what you want to say. I'm fine. Actually I am not. He raped me! I didn't expect that to happen".

"I don't know what happened between you two. I could help if you feel hurt. I've got pain killers in my bag if you want. For you is a raped. For Gibson it's just a pleasure, it's official you are his. It's on and on he won't stop".

Doctor Craig studied her innocent face, poor Belle she doesn't deserve this pain. "I would not hurt my wife if I was Gibson".

"Then tell him that!"

"I can't. I can't be involved ". He said softly then sighs, he stared at the school building while Belle was studying him. "Quite huge".

She snorted, "Do you have a wife, Craig?"

"I don't but someday. Like I say I won't hurt my wife".

"Your wife must be lucky to marry you. If I had a chance to marry you I would be happy and be a good wife at a young age". she smiles, regretting being married to Gibson.

Doctor Craig clearing his throat. "You don't love me, Belle, how will you know I will be a good husband to you one day. People change".

"At least you didn't try hard. He killed me!"

He didn't say anything after that. But he said this. "Anything can happen to him and you.

"Gibson on the other hand if he keeps a secret from me knows that I will find out, because I am always there for him. If he needed support I was there. He changed because of you, nothing else, he truly loves you but in the wrong way".

"I never loved him. I don't care and I hate him!"

"You are a special girl, Belle, think how he turns like that". she didn't answer, he studied the building again. "We should get inside now and wonder if Gibson thinks I was kidnapping you and return you to your family".

She growled, "That would be great if you do right now!" slamming the car door, crane her neck through the open window, she spoke, "Even or after my death I hate him and never will I love him!"

She walked toward the building in anger. He watches her with a smile then follows her inside.

Doctor Craig had promised Belle would accompany her to school as her long distance cousin, brother or anything name, just don't say anything about Belle being abducted and forced into marriage.

Not even the real name. They are now walking through the empty hall, Belle stop. "What is it?" ask Doctor Craig. "We almost there, changing your mind already?"

"I'm feeling safer with you, Craig don't know why just the way how I feel".

"We talk about this earlier, am I right? Come, I don't want Gibson to feel threatened because we are late for school".

Gently he reached her hand, resuming their walk straight to the principal office. He turned the knob and swung the door open.

"Hello".

A middle-aged man looked up from the paper, and he jolted. "Oh come in! have a seat. You both must be the ..." searching for the new student files. "Warren?"

"Yes".

"Are you two related to Mr. Ferhat Warren?" Doctor Craig shook no. Even is it true. "Thought you were so, Asli Warren am I right?"

Belle nod yes, the principal spoke again, adjusting the glasses. "Okay. Your previous school was in Colorado. Very impressive result".

Doctor Craig elbowed her on the wrist, she jolted. "Thank you, Mr. Principal".

"Mr. Nicholson Jackson to you". folding the glasses without digging through Belle's previous life in Colorado. "We also got a new teacher today, Mr. Ferhat Warren, English major. He starts his day today just like you".

The principal leaned on his back. He studied both Doctor Craig and Belle.

"So? Why did you choose Nethermore High School in Kansas, Ms. Asli?"

She turns to Doctor Craig, what will she answer? Doesn't she know the name of this school and everything was arranged by Gibson himself.

He didn't say anything about it. "So, Ms. Asli?" Doctor Craig spoke on her behalf.

"My sister is ... a shy teenage girl. You will not hear her voice much. I'm sorry for the inconvenience of being born like this".

The principal shook understand. "No at all. Proceed".

"Asli is my dear closer cousin". he lied. "Divorce parent". Belle turned to him. "So she stays with me because her parents don't want her so I took her with me". he sighs, shaking his head. Lie... lie... lie.. "It's awful".

The principal frowned, "Oh my god!" as his eyes to Belle. "I'm sorry that you have gone through this all alone". Doctor Craig wiped his fake tears. "Your cousins are nice people. You're lucky to have him".

"Do I?" said Belle whispering.

"Of course. You don't have to be ashamed of yourself dear, Asli most of my students also have the same family problem as you. Divorce, abused, even raped when the father raped his own daughter. It happens everytime around here".

Slowly Belle turned to Doctor Craig whom he was hiding his own laughter. This Principal Jackson completely believed what he said. Ridiculous!

"I'm the only cousin she had right now. She deserve a better place, better school. I hear the rumor about this school that you are successfully creating them into a better human".

"Of course. Doctor. Attorney. Scientists and lots. God blessed them. Of course for Ms. Asli it is better, Mr.?"

"Craig. Doctor Craig".

The principal smiled wide, he said. "A'ah. Another successful achievement is nice to see you Doctor Craig". he turned to Belle.

"I hope your cousin will understand there are rules in this school which I believe she read the rules before entering this school".

Damn! She really doesn't know the rules.

"Of course. She read already. No bullies. No socks. No drugs. Like no no". said Doctor Craig, she looked up at him again. "I read the rules in case it happens I'll show the rules back to you".

The principal cleared his throat, smile. "Very well. Here we took very serious action. If one of the students is trying to create a criminal pursuit we will expel those students right away". his eyes back to Belle. "Hoping you get along with them".

"You heard the principal kiddo". Doctor Craig eyed her. "Blend in. She was wearing a wedding ring that she took from her mom. Is that alright to you?"

"Not at all. It's fine. She is probably missing both her parents. I allow that she wearing". he opens the files again. "It says right here you are attracted to literature, history, biology and arts. Is that correct, Asli?"

Belle, face blank, doesn't know what will she tell him that she has been abducted and all this scene was a fake. "Is that correct? or you prefer something else''.

"I'm fine". knowing Gibson arranged that. "It's okay I am good with this". He nodded. Closed the files. She spoke back. "So? am I in".

The principal nod yes, said. "There's nothing wrong with it. Yes, you are. Welcome to Nethermore High School, Ms. Asli congratulation. I hope you will do better than your previous school".

"Count on me, Principal Jackson, I will never doubt you".

"Good to hear. You will start your daily school tomorrow and then see Mrs. Daryl for your schedule, school, locker room code and other specific details that you need to ask. Ask her". he smiled. "I will see you tomorrow then".

Both Doctor Craig and Belle rose up from the chair. Shaking hands with a smile and thank you.

They are now walking through the hall, suddenly stopping at Gibson's classroom as they hear him. She takes a peep inside the class which he notices while teaching at the front.

He smiled as soon as he saw his wife. Belle blushed a bit then back away accidently bumped into Doctor Craig who was standing right behind her.

He looked down. "Well, your husband is teaching so. Are you going in?"

"We are not supposed to expose our dirty secrets. How did you know how to answer the principal!" she asked.

Smirking, he said, "Simple. Your husband told me before your wedding ceremony. Just me and Gibson. Tomorrow you will find out more. Ask him later".

"I seriously don't want you to leave!"

"I had my own job, Belle. I cannot risk my patient's life. Soon you will understand you are just a kid for now".

Belle gave him a death glare, he spoke to look at it. "I hate when you say that!" grit her teeth. "I'm hungry". She walked to the hall.

"What about McDonald's?" He followed her behind.
