"Let me go! Let me go!"
Suddenly, Leona felt a cloth cover her face. Everything went black.
Her eyelids fluttered open after a while. As her vision adjusted, she found herself in an unfamiliar room. When she looked out the window, she saw that it was already dark. Then she glanced at the alarm clock beside her.
"Oh my God! It's already three o'clock in the morning!"
Leona tried to get out of the bed but she felt sore all over. Her head spun and her lower body throbbed.
"Oh my God! What happened?"
She reached for the lights. When she switched them on, she saw a darkened bloodstain in the middle of the bed. Her mouth dropped open. 'Have I been violated?' she thought.
"What happened? Why can't I remember anything?"
Leona shook her head.
Suddenly, she heard the sound of running water coming from the bathroom.
A few moments later, the door opened and a handsome man walked out.
"Shame on you!"
Leona yelled, covering her face. She felt ashamed seeing a half-naked man come out from the shower.
"I'm wearing a towel! Besides, you are my wife. You have nothing to worry about!"
He went straight to the bedside and touched her face with his slender fingers.
Leona raised her head and looked into his eyes. They looked like stars up in the night sky!
'What beautiful eyes!'
Leona thought to herself.
"Well? Don't you think your husband is so handsome?"
"My... My what?"
Leona's head suddenly throbbed.
"Silly girl, you agreed to my proposal! You are my wife now."
"What?! What proposal?"
