Dangerous Solace

“"Marriage is not a joke." Esther Rosales knew about it. But to get rid of the pressure and bullying from her family, she married Russell Zayne Velasquez, the man who had helped her in everything. She married Russell to repay his kindness for sponsoring her studies and for everything he had done for her. He was the man she found solace with, the solace she had never felt from her own family. Esther entered a flash marriage without thinking of the consequences and what the future might bring. Russell was nice, considerate, gentle, and a good husband but behind his gentle attitude lies a dangerous man who couldn't afford to offend.”
