Maddison groaned as she woke up. She opened her eyes but then she quickly closed them again as she put an arm over them to shield them from the brightness of the sunlight. With her arm still blocking the sun from her eyes, she slowly opened them and walked toward the window, pulling the curtains to block the sunlight.She suddenly felt a pang of hunger and the need to take a shower. She was already feeling refreshed and her injuries from the previous attack were slowly healing.She looked around her, wondering why her room was colored pink. She strode toward the door when suddenly it opened abruptly and two maids walked in.Madison stared at them in confusion, as one of them carried a blanket and duvet while the other carried a dress.“What’s happening?” Madison inquired, as soon as she realized where she was. “You are the first female to be sleeping over in the Mansion, so no one bothered to buy a female dress. “ one of the maids replied while taking out the previous blanket an
The next morning as promised, Alesha arrived at the Brians Mansion around eight o’clock in the morning. Her hair was tied back in a ponytail and her white slit dress looked like it was spun from the thread of rays of light. Her skin shone under the early morning sun which was no wonder why everyone talked about her. “Welcome, Alesha. “ Chase said with a warm smile on his face. He was dressed casually, in a blue shirt and white tank top. Alesha's face beamed up as she saw Chase, she looked like a bundle of joy and happiness. “Hey.” She said to him as she walked towards him. “It’s been Soo long.” She told him and embraced him. “Yeah… so how is it over there in Germany? “ Chase asked her while observing her body. “You looked more beautiful, Alesha. “ he said to her. “Oh it is lovely over there, you should come.” She assured him and giggled. “Good to know.” “Sorry about your loss… just heard about it last night. Uncle was like a father to me. “ She told him, with a slight frown on he
Madison gave a glance at the wardrobe, silently praying in her heart, that Alesha should leave quickly, in order not to expose Carl’s presence, as it would complicate things even more for her. She quickly headed toward the ward rope and leaned on it.“So why are you here?” she asked with a forced smile on her face while observing Alesha. She almost panicked, when Alesha began to approach her.“Were you talking to someone earlier?” Alesha asked while scrutinizing the room.Madison felt her heart race as soon as she heard the question thrown at her, but it took her much willpower not to show an expression of shock and panic as it would give her away.“Definitely not.” She replied with a chuckle, while waving her hand. She began to pray in her heart that Alesha shouldn’t come any further.“That’s odd, I could swear that I heard someone else’s voice.’” Alesha said and stared at Madison. “You sure you are alone?” she asked and Madison nodded in response to the question asked.“Why don’t we
A day went by in flash, leaving Madison just two days before her wedding with Chase. She had slowly but surely started to like Alesha, due to her free spirit and niceness. She felt like Alesha was like a sister to her which was a really good thing.The duo had already started to talk more and laugh, which helped Madison to forget about most things she didn’t want to remember, it also helped with her loneliness. The two had grown too attached that they could be found together, every day.But today was different, as the two women were too busy to have a chat together. Madison was blowing her hair with a hair dryer while reminiscing about her conversation with her parent the previous day.She wanted so badly, to know who Lilith was and the reason she had, for rendering help to her. Though she appreciates the kind gesture, she believed that Lilith had motives for trying to help her out. She turned off the hair dryer and smiled at herself, as she admired her hair which had fallen on her sl
It was finally the day of the wedding. Madison was getting dressed and ready. Even as she smiled at them, only she knows that within her, she wasn’t happy.She had a feeling of dread for the wedding and she felt like something bad was going to happen. To her, she felt like she was making a mistake, a huge one.She wanted to seize an opportunity and run out of the Mansion, never turning to look back but considering what was at stake if she did that, she decided to remove any thought of escape from her head. There was no escaping this for her, not ever.She was doomed to marry someone she did not love, even as she heard his confession. After getting turned down by Carl, she felt that with time, she might fall in love with Chase but it never happened. Carl had stopped coming to her after she had rejected his offer to help. Maybe he had moved on with his life, she did not know but she certainly missed him.Even Alesha had stopped coming to see her and gave her cold shoulders. She di
“You!” Chase said as he stared at Carl in disbelief. “How are you still… “ he said before he trailed off. His eyes darted toward Madison and he could see a smile on her lips, from the thin transparent veil over her face. He felt his heart bleed and his blood boil like it was being cooked. The congregation was confused, as they stared at the mysterious man at the church’s entrance. Madison’s parents were both confused and relieved to have Carl there. They wondered why he had come alone and what he was going to do, while they were relieved that his presence alone, might be what they needed to save their daughter from making a mistake. “What are you waiting for?!” Chase bellowed at his guards, as he inched closer to Madison. “Kill the intruder!! “ he ordered but before they could pull out their weapons, sounds of gunshots reverberated in the hall, gunning them down. Sounds of screams of panic filled the hall, as the congregation began to rub Helter skelter, trampling on one another,
The sounds of sirens broke the peaceful atmosphere, as corpses were being conveyed from the wedding venue to the morgue by ambulance. Even the police had stormed the place, as they handcuffed the perpetrator and led him toward the police van not caring about treating his injured shoulder or bruised face. Family members of the deceased, either wailed or threw curses at Chase for killing their loved ones. The press did not miss such a golden opportunity, as they asked questions and took pictures for their story. Chase sat at the back of the van handcuffed, with a few guards of his who only broke a few bones and some policemen. He did not say a word but cursed in his heart with hatred. He suddenly began to wish he had shot Carl himself, instead of letting his guards do it. But now, there was no need to cry over spilled milk. This wasn’t how he had expected it to go. His vision was dulled by the blood seeping out slowly from his wounded forehead. Soon, the van started moving and he
Carl and Madison boarded a cab, as soon as they finally arrived at their destination but she had no idea where she was going. She was still in her wedding gown and was still attracting people’s attention to herself, which she did not like.“Where are we going?” she asked Carl, as she took a glance at their unfamiliar surroundings. The smell of wet earth and grass, filled her nostrils, as the cab sped past buildings and trees.“We are going to look for a place to stay.” He replied instead and smiled at her. His indifferent look was nowhere to be seen as he spoke to her.“Are you two a couple?” the cab man couldn’t help but ask as he stared at the duo from the rearview mirror. “I don’t mean to offend anyone, I’m just curious.” He said to them and Madison smiled.“Don’t mind the gown…we are not...” “Yes, we are married,” Carl said, interrupting her while placing a palm on her hand. “We just got married.” He added and Madison gawked at him in surprise.The cabman smiled as he glanced at
Walking into the old abandoned building, Carl set Madison down on the ground as he wiped off the sweat on his forehead. He examined her wound with a deep frown on his face and although it was just a little scratch that would heal in days, he was still angry and bloodthirsty. He wanted to harm those that have put her in such a situation. He wanted to hear them cry out to him for forgiveness as he makes them go through so much more than Madison had experienced. “Madison.” He called out to her while moving a few strands of bloodied hair, away from her face. He bite his lower lip as soon as she did not respond. He was very tired and quickly sat beside Madison while placing her head on his lap. He did not want her to feel sore when she regains consciousness. “Once everything is over, I’ll give you the life you deserve.” He swore as he patted her head, slowly. For some time, there was peace and quiet as Carl just leaned on the brick wall with Madison’s head resting properly on his lap with
“What do you mean ?” Carl voiced out with concern. He was tensed and it was evident on his face how wary he was. “You will find out.” Lilith just said to him before she hung up. Carl inserted his phone back into his pocket and walked back into the room in a haste. He ignored the worried stare he was getting from Madison and walked towards the wardrobe, pulling out a bag from it. “What’s wrong?” Madison asked him as she stood up from the bed. She was worried, as she had no idea what was going on. It had barely been five minutes since Carl stepped out, only for him to return. She could feel that he was worried and it alarmed her. “We are leaving right now!” he simply said to her without taking a glance at her and just began to take out the bags. “Now? Why?” Madison asked him, as she followed him out. Now she was curious to know what was happening. She followed after him, as she went down the stairs. The floorboards creaked as soon as they were stepped on. “What’s going on?” Paul
A splash of cold water was all it took for Alesha to wake up. She gasped and her eyelashes fluttered before she looked around to observe her surroundings. The rattling of the chains bound to her reechoed in her eardrums. She was lost and, aside from that, she did not recognize where she was. She could almost hear her heartbeat pick up pace as it pounded hard against her ribcage like it was trying to escape its prison in her chest. She reeked of sweat and blood and her hair was damp with her sweat. Now, she could see them…her kidnappers, and they all had menacing looks on their faces like they weren’t there to play. They meant serious business and she knew that if she offended them, she might not be left off that easy. She quickly stared at her legs, as the thought of what had happened previously, clouded her mind. Surprisingly, her legs were perfectly fine. There were no bruises, nothing. “What sorcery is this?” she questioned her insanity In doubt as she was sure that just some fe
Carl and Madison arrived at their destination, a small building. Looking at the environment, Madison began to admire the work of nature as a smile beamed on her face. She could see a garden by the side of the house and a few flowers by the side of the porch. This was what she wanted, to live in a normal house, without any worries, and not in a mansion like her family. She didn’t need all that money and having to attend huge parties thrown by a celebrity or a governor. She wanted to live a simple life and she was sure she was going to like her stay here.Carl walked to the porch and pressed lightly on the doorbell, immediately, they could both hear the faint sound of music coming from within the house. Soon, the door opened and a little girl peeked out from behind the door.“Sam,” Carl said with a smile on his face as he stared at the young girl.“Uncle Carl.” The girl said excitedly, as she ran out and hugged Carl by the waist.Madison looked at the little girl without knowing whether

CONTAINS MATURE CONTENT, NOT SUITABLE FOR YOUNG READERS.]Time paused as soon as Carl just remained still while looking at her in disbelief. “Are you sure you want this?” he asked her and she nodded. “What if it hurt?” he asked her with a creased brow.“I don’t mind the pain…I am tired of keeping my virginity Carl, this is my life and I decide what I want to do with it…I want to spend the rest of my life with you, Carl. I want you to take me as yours…I want...” “Shhh.” He shushed, cutting her off while placing a finger on her lips. “I am all yours.” He said as he allowed her to slide down his shorts and gawk at his hardness.Madison swallowed nervously, as she had never seen a man’s genital before and this was her first time. She stared at his face and at the bulge, nervous.Carl seemed to notice how she felt, so he took it upon himself and slowly pushed his bulge through her slick and bloodied entrance and stopped when he saw her contort her face in discomfort and pain. Sh
