Deboradark

All of Rebecca’s most precious memories are soon to be erased. Born and raised under blue skies, sounds of cattle and farmlands, all that is soon to be gone. 
Her last opportunity presents itself in a shape of a man. 
A man that she dreads to encounter. 
Offering herself as a trade for her father's debt to keep what it's left from her mother seems to be the best choice, a foolish one.
Now she’s stuck in a loveless marriage and is starting to feel something for her husband so removing herself from the picture is the only option, escape when they least expect it. running far away, to a new life looking for ways to reinvent herself and for once be happy.
But when she finally starts feeling safe, her past comes back to take her away, to take her back.

“WHAT?!” I’m screaming. My brain goes numb, I can believe what I’m hearing. His mouth is moving but I can’t seem to understand why he’s saying. “I’m staying here. Forever?” 


He nods slowly to what I do the only thing I’m capable of at the moment, I throw my spoon at him landing square at his chest. 


“Hey! He said you agreed and dad said it was fine by him and gave his blessing.” Of course, he agrees, anything to have my miles and miles away from him. 


“His blessing? I’m being traded for land?” I was raising my voice and there was no way I was stopping now. “Bring McKinnon here! I have a few words for him.” I’m starting to get up but as soon as my bad foot touches the floor pain shoots up my leg. 


“I don’t think –“ I let out a scoff and rub my knee. “Rebecca.” He pleads, he actually sounds like someone who used to play chase with me when I was eight.
