INCESTUOUS MARRIAGE (Blood Marriage)
CHAPTER 01 - INCESTUOUS MARRIAGE

IM.01 PROLOGUE

ALLURA GIBSON

Of love? Is that love? Are there still people in this age of deceit who believe in love? Let alone say the word love, listening to the word 'Love' just makes me feel nauseous. For to me love is a trick. Love is only an illusion for people who are interested in the opposite sex. And that love is a conscious folly. People who are in love will do anything for the person they love. In fact he gave up his soul and body for a trick of the opposite sex.

I used to believe in love. I used to do stupidity based on the word love. But what do I get from that love? All I got was disappointment and heartbreak. Even my life suffered for decades because of loving someone who considered myself a catastrophe in his life. Isn't that so sad? Yes, it is very sad for people who live by logic.

Because of love, I survived with a man who once hurt me physically and mentally. Because of love, I accept all its shortcomings. Out of love, I let go of my youth being cruelly snatched away and living a married life with him. Because of love, I shewed the pain she once inflicted on my heart before she loved me. But what do I gain from a sincere love for him? My great and sincere love for Albert Ma was met with such deep wounds. And that deep wound has changed my life 180 degrees. Love can completely blind a person's heart into going crazy.

No more cheerful Allura Gibson just yet. There is no more elegant and dignified Allura Gibson like before. No more Allura Gibson. There is no more Allura Gibson with a good social life just yet. Allura Gibson is left with a compromised mental health. Because a broken love makes me so bad and shut myself off from social life. I forgot about myself and my life.

ADRIAN MA'S

A childhood that felt so bleak made me a reclusive man. It was because of past trauma that started from the separation of my parents when I did not understand anything. I once almost lost my life, yet it was not worth the loss of my whole family in just the blink of an eye. My dad was busy with his business, while my Mommy went somewhere. It made me, who was the only son in the Ma family, grow up with my own world without caring about the people around me.

For people who don't know me very well, they will think of me as a strange and selfish man. My habit of always doing anything on my own, molded me into an independent person. Coupled with my all-sufficient life, making my life far from the help of others. I can get everything I want easily thanks to everything the Ma family has. But it is not easy for me to accept others in my life who are hungry for love. Even I cannot feel the warmth of the family even though Aunty Violetta Winston has replaced my Mommy position. So I prefer to be alone and away from family after I grow up.

I thought that my life would always be filled with loneliness. But my encounter with a beautiful girl who looks like my Mommy, made my life change and full of color. I no longer feel lonely. And he filled my heart and my days with happiness. Making me feel empty, now back to life like decades ago when Mommy Allura Gibson was still there for me. Will happiness always be in my life? Or is it possible that happiness just stopped by for a little while and then left again?

ARIANA GIBSON'S

My husband Adrian Ma and I had to face a very painful reality. Where we both had to separate when our family life went well and very happy. The marriage of the two of us had to end after we became a complete family with a child present between us. The happiness we had dreamed of was shattered after realizing that we were both unworthy to live together. And that withering was caused by the blood connection so thick between me and her that it turned out to be a sibling.

It is very difficult for me to accept the fact that my husband is my brother. It hurts me to know the fact that the name my mother had always called in the past was the same name as the man who is now my husband. But I, who was the victim of the selfishness of my parents in the past, could do nothing but straighten out things that had been so messed up for decades. Do I have to let go of Adrian Ma whom I have always loved to get away from my love life? Do I have to give up my happiness to make my parents happy? I don't know, I don't know. This inbreeding relationship really made us suffer for each other.

ALBERT MA'S

Regret after regret has haunted me for decades after losing my love. Although there has been Violetta Winston as my life companion, but she will never be able to replace Allura Gibson in my heart. I've been trying my best to find his whereabouts. I have also done various ways to be able to meet him again. But my struggles over the years have never paid off.

I wanted to give up on finding her. But my remorse and love for him was so great, it made me never stop to think about it and look for it. I want to be fair to Violetta Winston who never stops loving me. But my heart and soul, which Allura Gibson had taken away, made me always refuse him to be my soul mate. It looks cruel, but my heart knows exactly where to dock. And the harsh reality led me to meet my true love. Although my hair is no longer as black as it used to be, my love for Allura Gibson never faded like my hair had turned white. I still love her, and I will love her at all times.

AMMAR

I don't care who he is. I don't care where it came from. And I don't care how his past is. Since I met Ariana Gibson a few years ago, I still think about it. I cannot deny that I have been defeated by Adrian Ma who first seized his heart. But my love for her, made it hard for me to turn away from her. Maybe this looks very selfish and making things up. Because I crave for a woman who already belongs to someone else. But as a man who has only one love, may I wait for him to return to being a single woman until I get a replacement for him?
