Captive in the Dark by my Ex-husband 41
I was staring at the ceiling all night. There was a small voice inside my head, making me realized the things I mindlessly said to Nabrel a couple of hours ago.I closed my eyes tightly as I flipped my body on the bed.Why did I say that? And now, I can't even sleep because of regret I am feeling.I pushed the comforter away from my body and got off the bed. My steps were fast as I went out of the room. I did not even knock in the guestroom where he was. A dark room welcomed my sight. It was cold because of the air conditioner. I gently closed the door.I bit my lower lip as I walked carefully towards the bed. I saw his silhouette through the dark. He was laying on his stomach. I could even hear his breathing.My heart clenched painfully whenever I think about the things that I have said to him. I never wanted to say those words. I never wanted him to hear those from me.I laid beside him. I wrapped my arm around his waist as I buried my face on his neck. He moved slightly. I remaine
Captive in the Dark by my Ex-husband Prologue
My eyes went to the door when it opened. One of Sylvan's men entered with a tray in his hand. Like usual, he did not say anything to me as he silently put the tray on the table. I just watched him as I remained sitting on the cold floor, breathing heavily.I swallowed hardly as I felt my stomach growling. I can’t wait to eat whatever is in that tray. I just wish it is not some disgusting rat or anything. When the man left, I immediately stood up and almost ran like a desperate dog towards the small table. I gasped when a steak, rice and some broccoli were on the plate.Without thinking anything, I sat on the chair and ate like I have not eaten in years. I closed my eyes as the taste of the steak played in my tongue. It tastes so good. It was so soft. I can’t believe Sylvan gave me this food after making me ate a fucking rat.I was so full. I finished all the food. I did not even leave even a single grain of rice. That is how hungry I was.As I put down the glass of water on the table

“D-Don Sylvan….” The man whispered with so much fear in his voice.My lips parted when I saw Sylvan’s reddening face as he glared at us.Fear crept in my skin when I saw the rage and disgust in his face when he looked at me. I swallowed, not being able to know what to do. Suddenly, I lost my ability to produce any words from my mouth as my eyes remained on his hard feature. His steps were heavy and full of authority as he walked towards the man.“I-I am sorry-“Before the man could even finish his sentence, Sylvan pulled his gun from his pocket and shot the man in the head. I gasped as my eyes widened when I saw the blood spurting out from the man’s head. I was beyond horrified as I watched the scene infront of me.Mindlessly, I took a step back slowly, scared that I would catch Sylvan’s attention. I was trembling miserably as I watched the man fell like a paper on the cold dirty floor.Tears fell down my cheeks as I screamed loudly when I saw the man’s eyes. They were opened and they

The door shut loudly. I remained sitting on the floor. I glared at the door where he vanished. That asshole. He thinks he can the rule the world. He thinks he is better than anyone. He is so full of himself. If I was crazy over him before, well that was before! I feel nothing but hatred towards him now. I do not even know why he thinks I will let him touch me, let alone fuck me.I fell asleep on the floor without me even realizing it. I woke up with a sore body all over. I winced at the pain as I tried to stretch my body. God, I need a bed. Even a small fucking bed with a thin mattress. Or even if it is just a matter alone! I do not know how long I can take this. I always wake up with a sore body every damn morning. It feels like I have been in an intense fight!I was shocked to see few clothes on the table. They were all the same. Huge black shirt and some brand new panties. No bra. Not that I needed a bra but why did he give me any? He wants me to parade my tits?I rolled my eyes at

Memorize poured in my head like a heavy rain as I cried out painfully."What do you want to do with your life, Nalya?! Your grades are disgraceful! I hired a goddamn tutor for you, right?! But why the hell is this still happening?!" my father, Lavino Monselorette exclaimed angrily. We were in the library. I was not even listening to him. I'm so tired of his unending lectures!I saw how my class card crumpled in his hand. I avoided his blazing eyes. I feel like any minute now, he could lift his hand up and swing it across my face. My gaze dropped on my lap and unconsciously played with my fingers. I should not have shown him my grades. I had readied myself from whatever his reaction would be. It is always like this. I do not even know why he was still disappointed when in the first place, he should not be considering I have never shown him a better grades. And I, myself, never even expected to get a good grades!My father should know that! His daughter is stupid!I flinched in my seat

As soon as I woke up, I mentally listed the things that I can do today. I have been staying here for two weeks now but I have not done any meaningful things. This is totally hell. I do not know what to do anymore aside from eating, sleeping, video call my boyfriend or workout. Even walking on the shore does not sound very pleasing to me. I always stay at the mansion.Should I learn how to swim? Go to the near island? I thought of visiting the island that my father had bought for my mom. But how will I go there? For sure there's someone from here who can accompany me there, right? But I think this is not the perfect day to visit that island.Good thing that our mansion has beautiful intricate details. I have something to look at that's worth my time.Our mansion was substantial and modern stylish. The windows were high ground-floor and well lighted. The roof was rectangular flat. There was also a huge and open-air swimming pool. Around the pool was a grassy area dotted with pine trees.

"I miss you so much, babe..." Davien sighed heavily. I smiled weakly as I stared at his face longingly. He was still on his bed. His hair was disheveled, eyes were still a bit hoody, indicating that he just woke up."I miss you too. Why don't you come here? I heard that your sister, is here in Belleza Eterna?""I can't. For now, I think I won't be able to visit you, babe. My dad gave me a work and he wants me to finish it in one month. And Nalya is just a kid, babe. We don't get along that much." "Hmmm...""What are you going to do today?" Davien asked tenderly. "Uhm, today... I'm gonna have my tour with someone who's a resident here as my tour guide." I giggled out of excitement."That's a good idea. Show me your pictures, okay?"I bit my lip and nodded. "Yeah...""Have you decided if you're gonna learn how to swim? Sure thing, locals of Belleza Eterna know how to swim. You can ask someone to be your swim instructor.""I'm still thinking about that. Or I probably won't. I don't kno

The only sound we could hear was the boat. Nabrel was sitting on the other side of th boat, his back facing me. While I was busy capturing beautiful scenery using my polaroid camera.Belleza Eterna is indeed a beautiful place. Its beauty is undeniable and eternal. It is easy for everyone to find peace and beauty on this place. The alluring beauty of it was highlighted more by the seawater that encircling it which can fascinate connoisseurs with its very bright crystal clear water and well-developed barrier reefs. I could see the slender and straight palm trees, forest overgrown hills from afar. Rogue waves crashing against the rocks, creating its breathtaking beauty. The infinite ocean that seems to blend with the horizon was also very engrossing.Nabrel is very lucky to live in this kind of beautiful place. He must be really proud of this. I pressed the button. The view was his back and the sea. I smiled as I waited for the picture to come out. I shook it until the picture became c

"Mommy?"I immediately pushed Nabrel when I heard that familiar small voice.I saw Vendrick who was peeking from the door. I did not even notice that it has been opened!I cleared my throat before I glanced at Nabrel who had his hands on his hips as he brushed his fingers through his hair.I stood up and went to Vendrick."What are you doing, Mommy? Who's that? And why is it so dark in here? Where's Daddy?" I carried him and turn on the lights. Vendrick's innocent eyes drifted immediately to Nabrel.Nabrel was simply staring at us. He had this unreadable expression. His lips were pressed into a thin line. "Why is there a stranger in your room, Mommy?" Vendrick was kitting his forehead as he studied Nabrel. "Who are you?""I am your real father," Nabrel uttered in a cold voice that made my eyes widened.He pouted when he saw my reaction."What? But my father is Davien De Loughrey. Mommy, do I have two fathers also?" The kid was beyond confused when he looked at me, waiting for confi

"Why did you come? You should have just take a rest," I uttered after I pulled away from hug.He just smiled at me, grabbing my hand."Do you want to ride the boat?" he asked me as he started walking, still holding my hand."Ride a boat? Now?" My brows furrowed. "We will going to watch the sunrise, baby. Just like before..."When the boat started moving, he went back beside me and sat. The sea was still dark, even the sky. I hugged myself when the cold breeze kissed my skin. I just covered my night dress with a tobe so I was freezing cold."I am sorry. This is so sudden," he whispered as his arm wrapped around my waist, pulling me more closer to him a if we still had space."It is really so sudden. Why are you showing up suddenly like a mushroom?""Don't you want me to?" he asked softly.I rolled my eyes. "It's not that. I was not even able to bring jacket. It is so cold." I also noticed that he was not wearing a jacket, only black t-shirt. Like he was really used of such cold weath

"Did you enjoy your few week of vacation in here?" Davien's voice was cold. That was the first words he said when we started eating.I quickly glanced at him from my plate. We were sitting across each other. I was silent the whole time and I am sure that he was watching me.When I got home few hours ago, I did not say anything to him and neither him. He was silent when he saw me but I could feel that his attention was on me. The only words he said was when he called me to eat and after that, he left."Of course." I even smiled at him. But he did not have to know the reason behind my smile.Vendrick was already in his room and sleeping. He was already sleeping when I got home. I did not expect that he brought the child with him. Fely just mentioned that the kid was upstairs and sleeping because he was tired from playing at the shore. The maids were outside now so Davien and I were the only person in the dining area.Even though I was tired, I told Nabrel to send me home. He wanted to g

"What are you talking about?" I was just staring at his dark face. I don't even know if those words really escaped my lips. I feel like everything froze in front of me. I shook my head as my knees felt so weak. I was struggling to find my own voice. The beat of my heart was suddenly so hard to portray in words. His forced laugh was filled with affliction. His voice was broken when he said all the words."I have waited, Talianna. I waited for two fucking years inside that fucking prison. Even just a peek..." His words came out through clenched teeth. I saw how his eyes darkened with pure anger and sorrow."Even just a fucking peek..." His eyes were already filled with tears. While I was still powerless in my spot. I was frozen. I could not even blink. "Y-You're lying... no..." I shook my head repeatedly. "Why are you lying?!" I slammed my fists to his chest despite of my wobbling knees. I pushed him with all my strength. He did not even move. He just let me but his gaze was making m

I don't know if I was already tipsy or worse, drunk. I could not comprehend the things around me anymore. All I wanted to do was to find out what they were doing inside and why they were taking so long so come back!I knew damn well that I should not give a fuck about things like this but I just can't sit on that fucking chair while a small voice kept on whispering inside my head. I swear, I will go crazy.What were they doing? Really, Nabrel? While your celebration is ongoing? While your guests were outside... and you were here... with that woman...My heart felt so heavy in each step. I was breathing so fast and hard that I thought I am going to lose my balance. I felt the tears forming in the corner of my eyes.I was fuming mad. That is all I am sure about.I went to the dining area. There were some waiter in there, preparing some foods. I immediately turned around and left the place when I did not see them.I bumped into Minda who was holding a tray. She had a huge smile on her li

I was coming down the stairs when I heard Sandro's voice. He was talking to Fely and they were laughing together. It was a Saturday morning. I just finished my workout routine and already done taking a shower. I only have a whole week left to enjoy my stay here before I go back to Manila. "Oh! Here she is. I am sure she will come because she has nothing to do here. She is always bored," Fely said when she saw me.Sandro flashed his wide grin when our eyes met. I smiled back at him. Why is here? Again? He is Nabrel's subordinate and I know that he is here again for a reason. "You are really beautiful, Ma'am!" Sandro uttered, looking at me with adoration in his eyes. I can't help but roll my eyes at him. He scratched the back of his head."Engineer is in the garden," he said like I had to know about that. I creased my forehead. He ignored my reaction as his smile was still wide."We brought you some shrimps and squids. We fished earlier, Ma'am," he continued."Thank you," I said polit

"Sandro is on his way here. He will send you home." Nabrel's voice was serious, not looking at me. His eyes were focused on his plate as we had our breakfast.I pouted, nodding my head slightly. I was wearing my red sweaters which Minda had washed already. If I was insane, I would probably steal all his clothes and bring them home. There is something comforting about being able to get a whiff of his clothes. It's calming... comforting... And aside from that, I rock his clothes more than I probably should. Thank God the rain has stopped and the sun has already come out. The warm and vibrant light of the sun made its way inside the room through floor-to-ceiling windows. He brought foods in his room and we ate together. We were both silent. I was glancing at him as I sipped on my coffee.He was wearing a dark blue sleeveless shirt and white shorts. Muscles rippled under his shirt. My gaze dropped to his powerful chest. As much as I did not want to, my eyes stared at it longer than I

After I ate, he went back. There is still a lot of foods left. I only ate one butted toast, one sausage and some piece of vegetables. I did not even touch my rice."Just stay on your seat. I will do this." Nabrel glared at me when I was about to help him clean the table."Suit yourself!" I rolled my eyes and remained on the couch like what he had said.I crossed my arms infront of my chest as I watched his every move. His brows were furrowed a bit as though he was doing a very challenging task. He did not even spare me a glance.I rolled my eyes when his eyes quickly glanced at my direction."Did you change my clothes? Why am I wearing this longsleeves polo?" I pointed at the clothes I was wearing.His dark brows furrowed even more. The foods were already on the tray. It seemed that he was done."Minda was the one who changed your clothes," he answered in a deep voice. I sensed a bit of annoyance in there."And why the hell are you mad? Where is this Minda you are talking about, then?
