A Matter of Wife and Debt Chapter 7
Daniella's PovTurning here and there in this soft bed underneath me it hits me - my bed isn't as soft as this. I slowly opened my eyes to see where I was. Searching the surroundings, it dawned on me that I wasn't in my room. I am in my husband's house and in my husband bedroom. Would I ever get use to this?I sighed.Sitting up, I let my eyes wander to the couch he slept in yesterday and it was empty. I wondered if he left early or he was in the bathroom? Curious I came down from the bed and quietly made my way to the bathroom door."Hello?" I knocked lightly on the door. "Mr. Ruiz are you in there?" I asked, but I didn't get any response.Maybe he's not in there and the shower doesn't seem to be running either. He must have left early. What kind of man leaves very early? Maybe he had some business meeting or more important stuffs to handle. Did he even have breakfast? I should've made him some breakfast as it's my first day as his wife.Does this show am a terrible wife?No I don'

Daniella's PovAfter breakfast, Natalia was droven off to school and Mr grumpy went out for some work which Penelope found very upsetting as it's his first day as a married man. He's supposed to be on his honeymoon trip, she said.To be honest it really didn't bother me at all. Afterall, this marriage is clearly based on a contract. And not a love marriage. Sadly.I helped Penelope in doing the dishes. After that I had a tour of the house. It's so massive that I got tired and decided to stop and continue another day. But not before I saw a garden or should I say a plantation at the back of the house. It's so massive and beautiful. I could see workers here and there in the field, I had no idea he had something like this here. It's really beautiful, at least I have something that could keep myself busy in this big house. I can join the workers in the field when am free. Seeing how diligent they all seem to be with their work, I guess Mr Ruiz does pay them well.It's a little after 11

Daniella's PovI woke up to the sun rays peeking through the curtains. I sat up and stretched my arms to the air while yawning, I glanced at the couch where he slept on the day of our wedding but he wasn't there. I guess he woke up early as usual, but I didn't hear him come into the room last night.Well it's a good thing that he isn't here, I don't need my mood getting spoilt this morning just by looking at him. The words he said to me yesterday hasn't faded from my head, I doubt it ever would. I mean, who comes up with accusing his wife of adultery barely two days of their marriage? Definitely someone as annoying as Javier.I get off the bed and make my way to the bathroom. Placing my hand on the door knob my mind quickly flashes back to what happened yesterday. What if he's in there again and he accuses me of peeping at him? No! I'll leave freshen up to much later, or I can freshen up in Natalia's room.Great idea!I went to the closet and grabbed my clothes for the day and some b

Daniella's PovI watched on how cute Natalia looked as she giggled while she playing with her toys. I wondered if her birth mother is extremely beautiful just like her. It must've been hard for Javier to let go of her. Speaking of Javier, it's been two weeks since we last crossed paths. According to Penelope he's been up in his study and does go out for meetings. It's more like he sleeps and eats in that study of his because he hasn't come into the room for two weeks now.Not that I care anyways. I'm clearly happy that I won't be seeing that annoying man for the mean time. But then again, why does it feel like I'm saying this to convince myself that I'm okay with not seeing him. "Daniella? Natalia?" I heard Penelope calling out to us, I guess she's looking for us."Hey baby, it's time to head in. Nanny Penelope is looking for us." I said to her with a sweet smile which she returned."Okay." She said.I dusted her hand filled sand before making our way out of the garden and into the

Daniella's Pov"You are so hot." He said, trailing his finger through my wet clothes.I kept struggling, but there doesn't seem to be a way out. He suddenly tore my clothes, I struggled more in tears…God please help me!He used his tongue to lick my exposed stomach, I feel so utterly disgusted by his act. All I could do was cry while struggling. I continued to scream even though it was pointless. The rain continued to drown out my screams."Help! Help! Please…" I yelled, but then another smack came across my face, making me shut up.He squeezed my chin tightly in his grasp. "You're really a fool if you think anyone's gonna show up to save your sorry ass. You are all ours bitch." He jeered, letting go of my chin as all of them laughed.I cried with the realization that I am doomed. Suddenly I could hear some ruffling in the truck and the next thing, all the men were flying out of the truck. More like being thrown out of the truck by someone. I quickly gathered myself and my torn dress

Javier's PovAfter a moment I could feel her body relax in my arms. The feeling of guilt began to wash over me. if only she had taken one of my cars she won't have had to experience all these a second time. I suppose even the first time was my fault as wellFirst I need to take her home before she gets a cold. Blocking my thoughts I pulled my coat and used it to cover her torn clothes, then I lifted her up into my arms. Carefully, I made my way out of the truck and placed her inside the back seat of my car. I got in and so did Juan who hit the road the next minute. The ride back home was really quiet with her looking out the closed up tinted window. I wonder what could be going through her mind at this moment? She must be tired, possibly replaying what happened to her. In the next few minutes we arrived home. Juan came around and opened the door for me to come down but I have to carry her because I believe she must still be in trauma to think that she was almost raped…because of me

Daniella's PovIt's been days now since that incident that happened to me. I've been trapped in the bedroom everyday all in the name of resting and that's really furstrating. If not for this phone Javier gave me, I think I would've gone out of my mind by now. Today I've made up my mind to step out of this personal prison. After braiding my hair in a French braid, I made my way out of my room.The hallway's empty as usual. I made my way through it and down the stairs. I could see some house keepers walking all over the place doing their chores. I made my way to the dinning area which is close to the kitchen, there I sighted Natalia sitting at the dinning all dressed in her school uniform while Penelope served her breakfast."Mama!" Natalia half yelled in excitement when she noticed my presence, getting the attention of Penelope."Dani dear, why are you down here? I was about bringing breakfast to you once I was done serving Natalia." Penelope had a worried look in her eyes. "I was get

Daniella's PovHis face is so close to mine that our noses could almost touch, I could feel his breathe lightly over my face. My heart thumped in unsteady rhythm in my chest, I swear he could hear it. Staring into his eyes this close, I realize how beautiful they were, hypnotizing too. Maybe that's why I couldn't look away.I find my eyes parting ways with his and landing on his lips which were a bit far from mine.What if he closes the distance and our lips touch?That thought really made my heart thump even more faster. I could feel something in my stomach too. I have never experienced a situation like this.What is this feeling I'm experiencing? The door opening made him come off me, and brought me back to reality. I looked up to see who came in, I felt so embarrassed to see it was Juan. I know I am not meant to be embarrassed because whatever we were doing, it's not wrong as we are couples.Wait!What am I even talking about? Whatever we were doing? We weren't even doing anythin

A Matter of Wife and Debt Chapter 37
Javier's Pov As Daniella's back touched my body slightly, I sensed her tension and smiled inwardly. Her awkward reactions to our proximity amused me, mirroring my own feelings. When she descended downstairs in her gown earlier, her beauty left me breathless."Let me help," I whispered, carefully unzipping her dress. My fingers brushed against the smooth bronze expanse of her back, sparking unexpected desire. Daniella's shoulders tensed, but she didn't turn. The soft lamp glow cast an intimate light, illuminating the uncharted territory of her bare skin.My gaze lingered, and my mind raced with the novelty of this moment. Daniella's silence was palpable, her tension alive between us as she waited for me to release the zipper. I cleared my throat, shaking off awkwardness, but hesitated to release my touch."I'm done," I said, controlling myself. "Oh." She murmured, turning slowly, avoiding eye contact. "Thank you."I smiled, leaving, but she stopped me with a grip on my shirt. "I...I

Daniella's Pov “Thank you baby.” I said, giving a light pinch on her nose.“Don't thank me, thank papa. He came up with all the ideas.” Natalia said, making me spare a glance at him.Javier really did all these for me?That's so sweet of him..“Thank you.” I said, not wanting to meet his gaze while my heart raced like hell.“Now why don't we go get you ready so all the celebration will begin!” Helena said as she dragged me along with her towards the stairs, I couldn't help but glance back at Javier who was already looking at me.My heart raced even more, he was looking at me!“Wait, how do you know the way to my room?” I couldn't help but ask Helena when she successfully found my room without asking me for directions whatsoever.“When I arrived, Natalia gave me a tour around the house and your room was the first place she showed me.” She said.“I see.” I said as I walked into my room fully. I paused when I saw a big box with ribbons all over it on my bed.“Wow, a gift box?!” Helena s

Javier's Pov I watched as her eyes widened as they strolled down to my bare chest, her face turning red as a tomato. I held myself from chuckling at her facial expression right now.“Oh my goodness!” She blurted out before jumping out of my arms, I couldn't help but chuckle inside at her awkwardness.“Sorry.” She mumbled, fumbling with her fingers and not wanting to make eye contact with me.Now, isn't that just cute?“I ask you again, what is it?” I said, putting on a shirt so she'd feel less embrassed.“I… I just saw a mouse.” She said, I frowned.“A mouse?” I asked to be sure of what I heard her say.“No, it's a giant barn rat… I think.” She said, looking here and there in the ground. “Let me see.” I said. I searched the corners of the room, but there was no sign of any rat or mouse. She didn't just lie about it so to jump into my arms, did she? “I guess I must've imagined it. I… I'll go grab a bottle of water from the kitchen.” She said and left the room rather hurriedly, not w
A Matter of Wife and Debt Chapter 34
Javier's Pov “After the prince saved both of his princesses, the other princess, princess Ella discovered how much she loved the prince and wished to express it. But, she was afraid to do so. One day she was walking down the hallway and she saw the prince, she greeted him and was about to walk away when the prince caught her and drew her closer to him. Their closeness was so intense that she thought he was going to kiss her.” Daniella narrated to Natalia.I’ve been watching them from the slightly open door of Natalia’s room. I wanted to come over to wish her a goodnight rest before I saw Daniella in there telling a bedtime story to Natalia who seemed so engrossed in her story telling.“Did the prince kiss her?” Natalia asked, I could sense the curiosity in her voice.“No, but, princess Ella thought he really would and felt disappointed so she mistakenly voiced out her thoughts. She felt embarrassed about it and ran away from the prince’s presence.” Daniella said.For some weird reaso
A Matter of Wife and Debt Chapter 33
Javier's Pov I couldn't help but steal glances at her from the corner of my eye throughout the ride back home. She was quiet, avoiding any eye contact with me and she seemed uncomfortable. What should I make of this? Does my presence affect her just like hers affects me? Does her heart race like hell like mine races for her right now? After my realization that I've fallen in love with her, I can't help but stare at her every now and then I can't stop thinking about her no matter what I do. She’s always in my head and I want to do nothing but confess the way I feel to her and give her a passionate kiss. But I worry if this feeling is one sided. Soon we arrived home, Juan opened the door for her. It feels so good to be home. We both made our way inside, but came to a halt when we saw everyone standing few feet away from the door, as if waiting for us the whole time – the housekeepers, nanny Penelope, Natalia. And Juan who joined them immediately. “Papa! Mama!” Natalia said, r
A Matter of Wife and Debt Chapter 32
Javier's Pov There were loud sounds I could hear in my subconsciousness, in the distance, like that of a blaring horn of a train.Wait, train? Daniella! Natalia! I forced my eyelids open and soon pains shot from my back head which I think should be because of whatever they had hit me with.“Wakey, wakey.” I looked up to see Carlos, grinning down at me. I made to throw my fist at his face and wipe that silly grin off, but I couldn't. I looked down to see my entire body restricted, tied to the chair I am in. Not surprised.“You know, sincerely speaking, I had hoped you wouldn't fall for my little tricks. But seeing the turn out of events, one would think that you aren't quite as smart as you let off.” He said, getting me more angry as I struggled to free myself from these ropes.Juan was right, this was a trap! Why didn't I stop to reason with him? How foolish of me.“So you thought I'll let you rescue them just like that? Oh no amigo, your precious family were just bait to get you i
A Matter of Wife and Debt Chapter 31
Victoria’s PovI walked into my room after checking if someone was following me from behind. I locked the door and walked some distance towards the window before I put a call through to Carlos. That bastard had to go against me and start taking actions without my orders. Now he’s gone as far as putting my daughter's life in danger too. How dare him?!I overheard Javier and Juan's conversations in the attic – Javier had yelled while I was heading to my room, and Juan came running towards the direction of his voice“Hello?” He answered after four rings.“What do you think you are doing, Carlos?” I asked, furious.“I don't understand, what am I doing?” He asked like he doesn't know what I'm talking about, angering me all the more.“Don't you dare play dumb with me, Carlos..”“..then try to be clear with your words, Victoria.” he retorted.“How dare you take actions without my orders and what's this about putting my daughter's life in harm's way?” I said in anger.“Carlos take orders fro

Daniella’s Pov We’ve been locked up in this dimly lit room for days now, if I'm not mistaken. I don't know how many have passed but it seems like forever already. We don't starve because they do bring us food, but sometimes I lose my appetite to eat.I wonder why Javier hasn't found us yet. Isn't he planning on resucing us or is the location of this place so hard to find?Sigh. I can't wait for him to save us. Sometimes I feel like crying because I miss home, because I miss him. Natalia would cry most of the time and I end up consoling her and reassuring her that her father will come resuce us soon.“Mommy?” Natalia’s voice broke my thoughts. “Yes baby?” I answered, looking down at her curled up in my arms. She has always been in my arms like this because the floor is really cold.“I miss daddy and I miss nanny Lopé.” She said, sadly.“I miss them too. But don't worry, very soon we’ll be with them. Okay?” I said, giving her my best smiles.I got startled by the sound of the door lo
A Matter of Wife and Debt Chapter 29
Javier's Pov I woke up to a reeling sensation in my head, It felt like I'd been asleep for a really long time. Opening my eyes properly, I could see that I'm in my bedroom.I was trying to sit up when I saw Penelope sitting in the arm chair close to my bed, her head tilted to the side as she's fast asleep. Why is she here like this? I glanced around, there doesn't seem to be any sign of Daniella around.How could she let Penelope sleep like this? It could give her a neck pain by morning. Why is she even here?I gently rubbed at her knee in an attempt to wake her up, and it worked. She rubbed her sleepy eyes and yawned. She paused for a moment when her eyes met mine. It's like she hasn't slept in days.“Oh, Javier.” She uttered, her eyes filled with relief as she stood up and hugged me.“Come on Lopé, why are you being so dramatic now?” I said over the hug.“You're right.” She said and then pulled out of the hug. She slapped me really hard across the face, giving me a shock.“What
