The divorce my husband had threatened to serve me was the only thing on my mind as I was sitting in the doctor's office. The red LED display showed 08:44. My feet was tapping uncontrollably on the floor and my fingers were tapping on the table. I was alone in the office because the doctor had gone to get my pregnancy test results from the lab.
I had been sick for some days, I did not expect it to be pregnant because I had been barren for six years, it's unlikely that I was pregnant now but I was willing to hope because my marriage was falling apart. A baby would be the only thing that would save my marriage. Yesterday, Cassian made it very clear that if I didn't give him an heir, I would be thrown out of the house. I love my husband so much, he was my highschool sweetheart and it was a dream come true when his father arranged a marriage between us, I couldn't lose him. My fingers were cold and my teeth clamped over my fingernail, I cut it and pulled. I hated nail-biting, but I was too nervous I couldn't help it. Another set of footsteps sounded and I turned to the door, watching the knob turn. The doctor entered and I stood up, pushing my chair back. The metal legs scraped against the marble floor. “What does it say?." I asked him. “Mrs Foster, I haven't opened it yet." I pulled the envelope from his hand and tore the seal, I pulled the single paper out and glanced at it. My eyes scanned through all the jibberish nonsense until it finally landed on a single word. “Positive... The test result is positive, doctor! I'm pregnant!." *** I drove home in a frenzy. I carelessly parked my car in front of the house, the valet rushed towards me and I threw him the keys. He gave me a weird look, something like pity crossed his eyes. “What?." “Nothing, Mrs Foster." He said and hurried away. Was it because I drove so carelessly? I ran into the house, straight for my bedroom. I told my husband that I was going to visit the animal shelter where I volunteered at. I always arrived home in the evenings so I knew he would be surprised to see me and more surprised to see the test result. I opened the door and my smile dropped. There were two naked bodies on my bed... My brain refused to register that the male was my husband. No... I walked into the room, my knees buckled. “C-cassian." I caught the door knob, so I didn't fall face flat. “Cassian." He plunged his cock into her cunt and pulled away, his cock was erect and dripping with juices from her cunt. His hair was all over the place, his skin was pink and his face, flushed. The look of pleasure on his face quickly morphed into rage. “Get out!." “Oh my gosh." The female gasped. I wobbled on my feet and my eyes landed on her, my vision was blurry so I cleaned my eyes with the back of my hand. It was Genevieva, my half sister. My heart was aching. “I said get out!." Cassian barked, he covered the nakedness of my sister and grabbed his trouser from the floor. “You're cheating on me, with my sister." How long has this been happening?. He pushed me out and I fell, landing on my knees. “How long?." I asked, the tears streaming down my cheeks were warm or was it my boiling blood heating my cheeks?. “Eleven months. I was going to tell you some weeks ago, but my lawyer wasn't available to draft the divorce papers." Genevieva appeared in the door, behind Cassian. She was wearing my robe. “How can you do this to me?." I asked her. Cassian snarled at me. “Don't question her," he warned, raising a finger at me “Genevieva, please get the divorce papers from my study." She knew her way around the house and I rarely invited her over. Did she always come here when I was not home?. When I turned to Cassian his eyes answered it all “You're so evil Cassian. I have loved you for six years, I have loved you relentlessly and all I ever asked was for you to return my love. Why? Why would you do this to me, why would you do this to us?." “I told you Freya, I married you because I wanted to secure my deal. Sign this divorce papers and leave my house." “I'm not leaving, this is my house too. Your father picked me six years ago to be your wife and I said my vows on an altar, I am not leaving you." Genevieva threw the files on me and she folded her hand across her chest. Cassian neared me and I shifted backwards till I had no other place to go. His fingers tightened on my cheeks and he pressed them hard, forcing my mouth open. Wide eyed, I stared at him. There was raw anger behind those eyes, I had provoked the beast in him and I was scared for my life. “Sign this divorce papers Freya, right now! Or you will regret it." I summed up courage, I would not let him break what we had. “If I sign this divorce papers, you will regret it!." He laughed. “I already got my inheritance money, what can you do? Report me to my dead father?." Genevieva snickered. I stared at the divorce papers and i picked it up. “Where is the pen?." Cassian released me, a look of relief and surprise crossed his eyes. Immediately he turned to Genevieva for the pen, I knew he let his guards down. I stood up and ran away. I ran into my bedroom and locked the door. Immediately the locks turned, he banged on the door, almost breaking it from it's hinges. “Freya, open this door!." My body jolted in shock and fear as I witnessed him violently beat the door. I shook my head and ran into my closet and locked this door too. I sank to the floor and pulled my knees to my chest. “Freya!." Cassian yelled. After a while the noise died down and I knew that the both of them had left.I was curled on the floor in a fetal position when I heard my phone ringing. I stood up and got out of the closet. I did not know how long I had been crying in the closet but it must have been hours. I checked the room to make sure that Cassian did not find a way inside. The shrilling from my ringing phone caught my attention again. I rushed to the nightstand. On the screen, the number displayed was unfamiliar. “Hello?." I said into the phone I heard laboured breathing and then cries. “Hello?." I asked again "Freya, it's me." It was the voice of my step mother. “Good afternoon, Mother." The word mother sounded foreign on my tongue. “Please save me, I've been kidnapped." “What?." “I was on my way to get some groceries when I got kidnapped...help me, please." “Where are you? How are you calling me?." “I borrowed a phone from someone. Please come and get me before they find me." “I'll call the police—" “Don't, do not involve the police. I'll text you the location." “But—
I decided that I would not tell him, if he decides that he hates me, then I would accept it because I was sure he would take the baby away from me. Genevieva would maltreat the poor child the way they maltreated me, I would die before I let that happen. As he walked away, I felt my heart tearing apart until I had no more heart to love. I was sitting in the tiny cell. There was a small bed at the side and a single chair. I held the bars of the cell and watched as the guards walked about. I was tired of standing, my legs were quivering and my belly was hurting. I was thinking about my baby, how can I stay here? My life and the life of this child would be ruined. More tears fell from my eyes and I clutched my belly and slid to the ground. “Forgive me..." I whispered to the growing life inside me. I was so protective over the baby and there was no way to protect it. I would rot in jail and what would happen to the baby? If only I had a second chance, I would not be so stupid again.
“Exactly, that's the one." He said with a small smile that was short lived. I could not believe Hunter was really in front of me. Many people sought to get appointments with him and it was impossible since he was a very busy and extremely important man. But we just jumped off a fucking bridge together. It was hard to wrap my head around it. He turned around and gestured for me to follow him with a sense of urgency. I ran after him. He was a tall man with long strides, it was hard to keep up with him. “Why did you come for me?." “You will know very soon, for now... Let's save your energy. Your muscles must be sore." I followed him through the dense trees and we broke out at some point. On the side of the road there was a red sports car waiting for us outside. The driver was standing outside and smoking when we arrived. When he saw Hunter, he threw the cigar on the floor and crushed it with his shoe. “Boss." He said and opened the door for the both of us to enter. I entered int
I could not believe my ears. “How did you end up with that low life prick?." Hunter asked and I was suddenly brought back to reality. Although I was still excited about my current position... I could feel the hate I had for Cassian. I would make that bastard pay, it was like a mantra repeating in my head. I would make Genevieva pay for betraying me. I would make Cassian see hell for throwing me to rot in jail. The entire family must pay for everything they had been doing to me since I became a part of that family. *** When I woke up the next morning, I had a smile on my face. My room was huge and since natural light was flooding in, I could see how beautiful the room actually was. I got down from the bed and felt an ache in my belly, I was hungry. I patted my belly that would soon be swelling with my child. I would never let Cassian come close to this baby. Never. I would protect and love the baby with everything I had. I made my way downstairs where I found Hunter wo
