In public, she was the noble daughter of the Muller family and the enviable young mistress of the Carrell family. But behind the scenes, she was a poor maid who had to wear a mask all day long and struggled for her livelihood.

Due to a conspiracy, she was forced to marry Ralph Carrell, son of the most powerful family in Northfield, in the name of Rayna Muller.

After the wedding, Ralph doted on her.

When Rayna showed up and claimed the place, she shed all her glory and left. She thought she would never see Ralph again, but Ralph took her into his arms and said, "Mrs. Carrell, you are not running away from me."

The Odd Luna Series

Rachel was pacing around the room for a while before she went to sit on the bed again. She started bouncing her leg all of a sudden. She tugged at her hair. Beads of sweat littered her forehead. Tears started to stream down her face.

"Woah, Rachel are you alright?" I asked, furrowing my eyebrows. She shook her head. Her breathing was becoming erratic.

I reached out to grab her hand but she backed away before I could do so.

"N-No." She whimpered as she backed away. "Please." I rose my hands in surrender. But then, she started screaming.

"Please!" She yelled. "Don't get any closer!"

"Stop screaming." I told her. "We aren't touching you."

She was sobbing loudly and screaming her head off, thrashing around.

"Rachel?" Olivia went up to her but jumped back as she was almost kicked.
