"Mrs Walter, I'd love to take Denise out for a bit, if that's okay with you". He smiles at my mum.

"Of course you can, you don't need my permission for that, she's your fiance". Her Statement makes him chuckle lightly.

"Denise, can we step out?" The question is weird to me but I nod my head in agreement. "Give me a minute to put on my shoes" with that said I head for my room.

I don't know what this man is planning but he better not drag my mum into anything shady. "Dear God, please make him leave my mum out of this mess, please." I pray.

When I return back Mum and him are laughing over something. They seem like old buddies catching up. "I'm here". I simply state breaking whatever conversation they might be having. "Lovely" he says. They both stand up and mum gives me a hug before seeing us to the door. As soon as the door closes and I know we are out of ear reach from my mother I turn towards him. "Please I plead with you, keep my mum out of whatever evil plan you have please".

    I didn't need a soothsayer to let me know who the message was from. He has a way to dampen my mood whenever he feels like it. I finish my food like nothing happened and wait till I get home. Oliver helps me carry my things into the house. He greets mum and Rosie before he steps out. I didn't bother with introductions because I hardly know the guy too. I make a mental note to change that if he is going to be the one protecting me from whatever he is protecting me from."What's all this?, I know for a fact that my best friend doesn't like me shopping alone, especially without her". Rosie curls her eyebrows at me. "It was Gregory who took me shopping". And you agreed? worst of all without me…" she had an exasperated look on her face. Mum chuckles at her. "I'll let you guys have some privacy, plus I really need to see Mrs Miller from the seniors' home".

    My mother is staring at me as the makeup artist works on my face. I can see her from the mirror in front of me. The room is silent except from the noise the makeup artist makes as she drops each brush or pallet or whatever she uses. I may be looking calm but my hands are fidgeting underneath the apron placed on me to prevent me from being stained.She is putting the final touches to my face and after this I'll be getting married to a stranger. He is still a stranger to me. "I'm done" she brushes my face one last time and gives me a radiant smile, in return I give her a nervous one."Thank you" my voice is small, barely audible but she heard me. She nods her head in acceptance and appreciation of her work. She moves on to gather her makeup tools before making her way out.Mum and I make no move to speak, we just stare at the mirror looking at each other. Consumed by our individual thoughts. She takes in a really deep breath and then exhales slowly." You look beautiful, my baby," she

    It's been two hours since the guest left. I am sitting in the living area watching the cleaners clean the place. My husband "did I just call him my husband". I laugh humorlessly. Gregory left ten minutes after the guest left."Ma'am is there anything else I can do for you?" One of the staff asked me, " we are done, we are about to leave". He continues. "No, thank you, you guys can leave. I instruct him. I sat there for more than two hours, he still isn't back. I didn't realise when I fell asleep on the couch. It is only when my name is called that I regain consciousness. "Refrain from sleeping on my couch, Your room has been prepared, Come with me" he instructs with an expressionless face. I follow him silently till he opens the door to a room and walks in. "I trust everything is to your liking. If you need anything, inform Carolina, she'll be coming Next tomorrow. He steps out leaving me all alone. The room is magnificent if I must say, very spacious with a king sized bed. Minimal

    It's been two weeks since our wedding. Gregory and I are strangers still. He is rarely home. He leaves for work early in the morning and returns home really late at night. I only see him when I get my midnight snack and that isn't every day. Last night when I saw him, I told him of my appointment with the doctor for my antenatal care.The strangest thing happened, he offered to take me there. For someone who doesn't like my presence in his home this is really weird. I guess he is doing it because he wants to find out how the baby is doing first hand.I am wearing a plain purple shirt and a loose white short. My bump is now obvious so I try as much as I can to wear loose fitting clothing. Basically anything that makes me comfortable. I carry my black backpack and pair it with a black sandals. My line of work most times gives me the freedom to dress as I please. I also intend to go straight to work after this. My life has gone back to the way it was after the wedding. The only differenc

    The entire day feels so strange, I have not been able to come to terms that Gregory kissed me. I mean he kissed me on the lip. To me the kiss was totally unnecessary. Even if we were trying to keep up with appearance a simple peck on the cheeks would suffice."Hey Mama bear". Rosie calls out to me. "I'll be leaving early today. I got a photoshoot downtown. See you later my love.`` She gives me a peck and leaves the studio. My head is still in the clouds that I don't realise it's time to head home. It had taken my boss yelling my name for me to return to earth.Gregory asked me to pick some clothes from Monica's after work. I told him I didn't need new clothes but he gave me the I don't care, I made the rules face to shut me up. So here I am picking up clothes I do not need.

    The aroma of the food diffuses my anger. Even if I wanted to stay angry I can't, it just is not in my person plus I am really hungry. Even if Gregory didn't come I would have still sneaked out for some food. I noticed that my initial distaste for food is over and most of the time I just want to eat. As I eat my mind keeps pondering over the words of Ellie, "I still have him where I want him". Does that mean they are still together after our marriage? "But the contract stated that I am not to have any other affair. Does it mean that it applies to only me?.I shake my head to dissipate the thoughts from my head. Another thought finds its way to my mind. "Patrick". just then my phone makes a ding sound, indicating the arrival of a message. "Who could it be by this time?, it's pretty late". I stretch my hand and grab my phone. It's Rosie. She's still worried. A slight smile is etched on my face. I love how she loves me. "Denise sweetheart, please reply to my messages. Are you okay?". her

He returns to pampering kisses on my sensitive skin.."Can, you.., can you.." I'm not able to get a complete sentence out due to his kisses. He moves to the other side of my face. "If you don't talk I won't know what you want my dear Denise". He murmurs to me then nibbles my ears. "I think… erm… I.. err.. I am sleepy". I stutter lightly."You still haven't made a comprehensible sentence Denise. What do you want? He chuckles quietly, the sound tingles my ears.I have to put an end to this now.

    "Hello Denise". Rosie calls out from the other end of the line, "Yeah Rosie what's up". I respond to her" So you remember that post we made when we needed money for your mum's surgery?," "Yeah…" we had another offer from a lady, she wants you to cover her sixtieth birthday celebration. It's this Sunday. I forgot to tell you , I just received a reminder from her today. I don't know if you can still do it considering your condition." There's a pause and I take that as my cue to speak."Of course I'll do it," I say in an excited tone. Oh my God Ro, you don't know what you've done for me, I really need the money". She laughs at me, how can you need money, you are married to a freaking Billionaire, do you even know what that means?. Not a millionaire but a freaking billionaire. You should be swimming in money my love. I laughed at her statement. "It's not as it seems Rosie, I might be married to him but I don't own his money"."Bullshit Denise!" She blurts.

Blood drained from my face and for a split second, my heart forgot to beat.“Patrick”“Why, Hello there sweet peas” his smile broad as a Cheshire cat.“Never thought we would meet in these circumstances, what can I say the Lord is good”. It's sickening, him mentioning the Lord. This brute knows nothing about the Lord.“Now, now, don't be sad, this will only last a few hours and we can be happy. We could even play hide and seek if you like”.He stalks closer to us, no me.“Get away from her you psycho” Luke screams. Patrick pays him no mind as he moves even closer. He raises his hand to graize my temple, I flinch in reaction. “Get your hands away from me”. He laughs heartily at my reaction.“And why would I do that, huh, sweet peas”.“I owe you nothing, I paid all of my debts with interest. So. Get. Your. Hands. Off. Of. Me”. I seeth.“Come on sweet peas”. He draws. “This isn't about debt, this is about how muc

    “Dee…” Rosie badges into my room. Luke called, he said he has something to show us. My eyes widen a fraction. “He has figured out something” I murmur. Rosie nods her head frantically at me. I waste no time picking up my bag as we dash out.“Carolina…, we will be back soon”. I hollered at Carolina who was cradling Ivy in her arms.“Ra tat tat” Rosie knocks on Luke's door. There is no answer at first but the second time the door swings open. Luke stands there with an awkward smile that doesn't reach his eyes. He looks kind of nervous. “Come in” he opens the door wider allowing us enter.“Luke are you…” the words are choked shut in my mouth as something hard hits my head. I hear Rosie scream before I black out. The pain at the back of my head is heavy. I try to raise my hand to rub the spot but I can't, my hands are bound.“Ah…” A wave of pain shoots through my head. I blink slowly several times to get the black dots out of my vision.“Ro…..” I call out to my best friend. She is lump

    "Target has locked in”. Luke the tech guy tells me on the phone.“This is going to take roughly thirty minutes to one hour. Rosie found a way to get me invited, being Gregory's wife propelled it though. They gave me front row seats but I declined. I opted to sit behind. Sitting behind will keep me away from the prying eyes of Ellie. My eyes are on Ellie the moment she steps in. She's wearing a cream coloured A-cut short gown. She is wearing a black heeled boot to match. She looks good, I won't lie. She greets Peggy Ross. They exchanged pleasantries soon after the show starts. I take subtle glances and I notice how she suddenly feels uneasy after checking her phone. Is she unto us.? Has she found out her phone is about to be tapped. I quickly text luke. He doesn't respond, this gets me worried. My fear bites deeper, my legs bounce on their own accord revealing my anxiety.Ellie puts down her phone focusing on the models as they walk down the runway.

    The sad thing about me is I tend to forget too quickly. I forget how he can be and then I get hurt. I need to constantly remember my place. In less than three months I would be gone from this life.My ears perk at the sound of my name. Rosie pokes her head into my room. “Denise” she calls me in a quiet manner. Her eyes stare directly at me as she walks in. “Denise, l knows you are mad at how Gregory reacted towards our suggestion. She sits down on the bed getting comfy. “And just because he says it doesn't mean we are going to stop. You have my full support to pursue this to the very end”. She stretches her hand placing it tenderly on my arms. I wrap my hands around her instantly. Having a friend like Rosie who supports you is a big blessing. “What are we going to do?. We don't have the necessary information to help out”. I detach myself from our hug. “I was banking on our alliance with the guys to get info”.

    Denise's POV: Gregory and Isaiah have been avoiding Rosie and I. Purposefully if I might add. We know the reason they are avoiding us. It's so they don't get to give us details on what's going on with the Ellie thing. They leave the house pretty Early and return late at night. We are asleep when they return and we don't get the needed information. Tonight is going to be different though. Tonight we are not sleeping a wink till they return home and tell us all we need to know. “Dee, I'm not sure I can stay up any longer, my eyes are closing on their own”. Rosie yawns. Her eyes shutting down completely as she yawns. “Common Ro, we need to stay awake if we want to know what's going on.”. Rosie nods her head at me with her eyes still shut. When I look at the clock for the fifth time this night, it shows it's just eleven forty five. I sigh in annoyance knowing any moment from now I'll be falling asleep. I need to stimulate myself in order to stay awake, not just me but Rosie as well.

    Denise's POV:Gregory mentioned Ellie has returned to her parents house. She must have figured something was up. I mean it is obvious non of us are home anymore or she is simply evading being caught either way she is out of the house. You would expect us to return hom but we didn't we are still staying in Isaiah's mansion. Isaiah has refused to let Rosie leave as well. I don't blame him though, after the whole incident he wants us to be safe. Not that Gregory's Mansion was not safe but Isaiah's mansion is on another level. The place is surrounded by so much bodyguards that are armed, I mean heavily armed. It's scary sometimes. The men don't look friendly, they all have similar tattoos but it's located on different parts of their body. It makes me wonder what agency Isaiah found such terrifying looking men. Men that have access to such heavy weaponry. Then again he is a billionaire, money can buy alot of things..Rosie and I step into the balcony were Gregory and Isaiah are having a

    Denise's POV:Flashes, blood stains, pleas. I jolt up from my sleep breathing heavily. My forehead is covered in sweat despite how cool the room is. “You're awake” Gregory says, stepping out of what I assume to be the bathroom. His voice scared me a little since I wasn't expecting him here. He rushes over to my side. “You look frightened”. He noticed my fear. “I-I had a nightmare. My voice comes out hoarse. Gregory rubs my arms affectionately. “It's just a nightmare you are safe”. I nod my head and he wraps his strong arm around me holding me in a warm embrace. “I made a warm bath for you. Figured you'd be waking up soon”. He kisses me on the forehead, breaking our embrace. “Ivy”. I say. “She's fine she's downstairs with Rosie and Carolina”. Gregory holds my hands to help me out of the bed. I notice that I am still in the clothes I wore yesterday. The site of the dried blood raises bile to my throat. I close my eyes for some seconds to pushing it down. Gregory is patient with me.

The only thing holding me back is Isaiah and the thought of harming the mother of my child in my blind rage.Isaiah and I move closer. Isaiah takes two precise shot. The shots are faster than I anticipated. Two of the men surrounding Denise fall flat on the ground. The last guy pulls Denise fast, holding her captive by the neck with a gun pressed by the side of her temple. He cannot see us but he is certain of where the bullet came from. Her captors eyes are wide in shock and fear. His expression almost mirrors that of Denise. Hers are rounded in fear of the unknown. I can see her visibly shaking in his hold.“Come out or I'll kill this slut”. He roars, eyes focused on our location.“At the count of three if you don't come out you'll pick up her carcass”.My eyes dart to Isaiah and he has an easy smirk. In this horrible situation m

My heart is beating faster than I can process. This wasn't how I planned it. I was just going to sneak up on her and find out what she's up to. The sound of a gun being corked is heard and colour drains from Rosie's face. I bet my face mirrors hers “On the count of three we run”. I mouth to Rosie. She nods to my suggestion like an understanding child. “One, two, three, run”. I mouth to her. We both rose, hitting down the cans we hid behind. They have all realised that people were indeed in their territory. Various footsteps are heard as we run; they are after us. “Boom, boom, boom”. Shots are fired at us but luckily we've taken a left.
