Instead of 'getting old together' and 'till death do us part', she gets a one year fixed marriage. Even though Sabelo, her husband, treats her badly, she still falls in love with him. When one year is up. She tries to talk him out of divorce but his mind is made up, she eventually leaves. But will he really let her go?

Married To An Assassin
Updated at Oct 20, 2021, 23:00
Six months after my boyfriend of 4 years left me without even sending a text. I met the love of my life. At first I'm hesitant, because I didn't want to keep dating the wrong guys. But he treats me right. I've loved but for the first time my feelings and efforts were being matched. And against everyone's judgement we get married within 3 months. I couldn't have asked for a better husband and best friend. But my dad kept insisting it's too soon. I hardly know my husband. But I feel like I already do. But do I? At least that's what I thought until I found out he is an assassin few months into our marriage. How could I have missed the signs? Because I know they were there. Maybe I should've listened when people warned me. I'm confused. Should I go? I mean the guy is an assassin. Or Should I stay? He's the love of my life. He treats me like the queen I know I am. What would you do?
