Obligation - an act or course of action to which a person is morally or legally
bound; a duty or commitment.
As soon as I saw her, I knew exactly who she was. A snake, born with venom in
her blood and poison in her veins.

But my poisonous new bride is a snake, bred from a den of vipers.
Family expectation might have forced me to entwine my life with hers, but I won't

she says. But once I see her, it's impossible to look away.
Freedom is all she craves and the only thing I can't give her.
I should let her go, but I couldn't if I tried.
Obligation has become obsession... and she's all mine.
