She felt tired and dizzy and was incredibly craving for alcohol which she couldn't drink. She had to hold on for a few more months.She placed her hand on her stomach, smiling slowly. "Soon." She told herself."Well, well, well." An irritating gruff voice erupted behind her and her eyes snapped open.She turned to the direction to see up to twenty men. They were all holding guns and pointing it at her.Fiona sighed. She thought that all her problems was over but of course she was wrong."What?" She asked angrily."What an attitude." One of them chuckled and she felt someone grab her from behind.She screamed, kicked straight in the groin and turned to look at him as he fell to the ground."Moron!

CHAPTER 1 Valerie's POV "How can you just send me away to some stranger?" my voice echoed loudly across the hallway. The rage in my voice can be easily noticed. I stare at my grandparents in shock and confusion. "Valerie, it's for the best." my grandma says quietly, trying to calm me down. "No!" I shouted. "Just tell me the truth, you guys just want to abandon me also just like my very own parents did ten years ago. Am I really that much of a burden that you all pass over to the next available person when you're done with me?" I say, my voice cracking at the end. By now my face was already drenched with my own tears, eyes puffy and begging for acceptance. I couldn't believe what was happening. "Shut up!" my grandpa shouted at me. "You're getting married to Mr Stephano and that's final! I'm sick of these childish games. You're turning twenty soon for god sake" He continues, the look in his eyes held so much hate and annoyance it broke me. I have never seen him act this way before
Chapter 2Valerie's POV"Not bad..." He says after checking me out, his icy gray eyes looking at me like he was staring into my soul. I scoffed at his comment, could he get any more rude? I think quietly."What's your name?" He asks."Excuse me?" I ask in return." What-is-your-name?" he deadpanned, annoyance written all over his face."Drop the act, I'm aware you've been keeping tabs on me for almost a month now. How is it possible you don't already know my name" I say, rolling my eyes at him.He takes a quick step towards me, closing the distance between us. His hands reached for my neck and enclosed it, his grip not tight enough yet to stop my breathing entirely. "You better watch your mouth kitten, you might not survive another day here if you continue like this. Now what the fuck is your name" He said coldly, his grip on my neck tightening."Valerie" I choked out."Good girl" He says then releases my neck from his right grip making me pant heavily. Turns his back and starts hea
Chapter 3Valerie's POV"Follow me" He says, then got up from his chair. Ignoring his unfinished food, he heads out.I quickly got up and rushed after him, curious on what was happening. It was already really pretty late when we stepped out of the mansion."Where are we going?" I ask, following him as he enters one of his numerous cars."Just shut up and follow me, do you want to find out or not" He asks coldly.Not wanting to annoy him any further, I keep quiet and just wait patiently till we get to the destination. We past through familiar streets, I've come to memorize by heart. We were heading to my grandparents house I figured. But why?It hasn't been a day since I left this house. I wasn't feeling really excited to return because of how betrayed I felt towards my grandparents. Although staying with Stephano wasn't an exciting option...Soon after we arrive and he the parks in our driveway."What are we doing here?" I ask in confusion."Again, stop with the questions." he deadp
Chapter 4My vision is suddenly covered by a black cloth placed over my head. Strong hands circling around my waist, pulling me back with so much force."Hello darling" I hear an unfamiliar voice say.I try to scream for help but his other hand immediately covers my mouth, muffling my voice. I start thrashing around, trying to free myself from his tight grip. I managed to remove the blind fold from my eyes."Stay still, don't make this any harder. Well… if you don't want to get hurt" He says, voice coated in anger.Ignoring his demands, I continued to try and free myself.I wanted to scream but the person behind me still had his hand over my mouth, then hurled me inside the car, it was a black van I had always seen in movies associated with kidnapping. I looked around and saw two masked men in the back seat and one masked person in the front. The car speeds down the unfamiliar streets. After what seemed like hours of driving the car finally came to a halt. Someone picked me up and too
