Lindy

A week ago, I found out my husband never stopped cheating on me and that he even has a child with his mistress. A day after that I accidentally killed his mistress and got arrested. Two days after that I got served with divorce papers by my husband of over a decade. A day after that I was informed that I will never see my children again and today, a week later I got convicted. My lawyer didn’t have to fight much as I insisted on pleading guilty because I was. I took a life I deserve to be punished for it.

A lot happened in a space of a week and it’s happening so fast that I can feel myself falling with no one to catch me. It’s like they have pulled a rug from right under my feet and I am falling hard. I didn’t even have time to wrap my hea

    LindyTwo years have passed since I got arrested and I wish I could say things changed after that day, but they didn’t instead they got worse. I have suffered more beatings, especially after it was common knowledge what I was in for. They would curse and ask me one question when they beat me up, why did the mistress have to pay for my husband’s mistake? Why did she have to die and not my husband who approached her?They were right, I should have dealt with Liam and left Mia alone. But at the time I was not thinking so could haves and should haves will not help me with anything. In a way, I felt like I deserved the beatings; I took a life, a mother from her children and I can never take that back. I felt like the beatings were a way of me repenting for what

    LiamBeing without Lindy and Mia has been difficult for me. Raising the kids alone has been even more difficult, they ask about their mothers every day. Now for Lindy’s children it’s easy to answer, no, it’s not easy, it's difficult but at least they know their mother is alive but having to tell Sam and Bella that their mother is in heaven and is not coming back is killing me.It also makes me resent Lindy even more for putting me in this position. Talking about Lindy, she sent word that she would like to see me; I have been putting it off for a while now and today I am finally going to hear what she wants. I parked at the prison and looked at the high walls. The woman I loved is locked in there, I wonder what is like now?

    Narrated“Somebody help!!” shouted one inmate. “Guards! Please, she is going to kill her!” she shouted again, but no one showed, fights in prison were an everyday thing and the guards were used to them. They took their time to attend to them and this time it was not just a minor fight like the ones they usual get daily.Lindy was on top on another inmate stabbing her repeatedly on the neck. After Liam’s visit about a year ago Lindy was bitten almost to death by this same inmate with her friends, she has two broken bones and a concussion and stayed in the hospital for a month before being released and coming back to prison.

No one wanted to say anything against her afraid that they will be next should they talk and the only punishment they could give Lindy was a month in solitary confinement.The authorities knew she did it, but it doesn’t work like that with the law, one had to have evidence of such things and they had none.

    When Lindy got back to her cell, she took out her phone and made a call. It wasn’t long before the call connected. “Get me out of here.” The latter sighed. “Didn’t you say you want to stay so that you can be there so that your children can visit when they want to.” Lindy looked up and blinked her tears away.“My children are better off without me, now when can you get me out?” the latter was quiet for a moment. “Do you understand that if we take you out you will be a fugitive, you cannot come back to the country and you won't be able to see your children?” this is not what Lindy wanted when she joined the organization.This was supposed to be a way for her to stay safe in prison and be able to live long enough to see her children again. “Things change and I told you, my children are better off without me.” the latter was convinced. “We will make the arrangements then.” Lindy could not w

    Lindy fluttered her eyelashes and opened her eyes. She scanned the room but before she could register anything, someone spoke not far from her. “Welcome to Cuba, wife.” Lindy quickly sat up and scanned the room to find the source of the voice.On her far right there was a balcony and a man sitting at a table having breakfast and sipping on something she assumed was coffee. “How did I get here?” the man stood up and walked towards her. “Did you not say you wanted out?” he raised an eyebrow looking at her.“I did but I didn’t think it will be so soon.” the man chuckled. “With how you sounded on the phone, I assumed you wanted out immediately. Anyway, this is your new home, there are the keys and there is a laptop. We are still having your family watched and the pictures and videos are being sent to that laptop.” Lindy nodded.“Shower and we can have breakfast together; we have a lot to discuss

    Lindy left a cold shiver ran down her spine but being in prison helped her a lot when it comes to showing her emotions. Even when fear threatened to cripple her, she did not show it one bit. She wore the stone-cold expression like she was born with it.She wondered if her past would ever leave her alone; she was in Cuba for God’s sake! Despite that, her past was following her, she didn’t even know that Mia’s son was the son of a Cartel boss.She wasn’t so innocent after all.Lindy thought. “I have no interest in your son, I am only monitoring my children and your son is being raised with them and is always with them. so…” she shrugged pretending not to be affected by the man in front of her but she was nothing but.Inside she was falling apart and wished she didn’t come here. “Is that so?” Jason raised an eyebrow looking at her, he too had changed a lot since taking over the organization, he was

    Two days had passed, and Lindy has travelled to four places in these two days, leaving bodied wherever she went. Drake was, of course, impressed by her competence and efficiency.Now she was in Rome, she flew straight there after her last mission. Drake sent her the details about her family, and she was currently on her way to meet them.She didn’t have to hide from anyone here. She was in a foreign country and the odds of her being discovered were not that high. They were all in a restaurant having lunch when she walked in.The kids were all grown, and she couldn’t help but stand there and admire them. “Excuse me mam, how may I help you?” asked the hostess. “Oh, sorry am with them.” She said, pointing at Liam’s table.The hostess smiled and said, “You have a beautiful family, mam.” Lindy nodded and walked forward. Andy was the first to see her, and the smile on his face turned into a frown. Lindy’s heart sank when she saw than and her smile disappeared.“What’s wrong Andy?” asked Lia

    They went to the lounge and sat on the couches together. Sitting close to each other. “Tell me, where have you been hiding?” lindy smiled shyly. “At the office, I enjoy being alone and working on what needs to be done. I am an introvert, you see, and things like these are not my scene.” She man smiled at her.He has been looking for a woman like this for a while, one that works and would challenge him intellectually. Not just spending his money, but one who knows how to make it as well.The type of woman that would look like a homeless person at home but crush you in the boardroom then looks like a model at events like these. That was his ideal wife, and this woman was ticking all his boxes.“I must say, a woman like you would make a good wife.” That hit a spot-on Lindy. She was a good wife, and where did that leave her? Here with him now, about to kill him to save herself. Men were not to be trusted. Not unless you work with them.“I hope I get to experience being a wife in my lifeti

    Lindy took the parcel and hailed a taxi to the hotel that was booked for her. She was paranoid after getting the parcel and kept looking around to see if she was not followed. Even when she was in the taxi, she kept looking out the window and would hold her breath each time there was a car behind them and wonder if it was following them. The taxi finally came to a stop at the hotel, and she hurried inside. After doing all the paperwork she went up to her room. There was a dress on the bed and an invitation card to some fundraiser. There was another note. ‘He likes women, especially sophisticated ones. Have your hair in an updo style and play your part well.’ That was the message on the card and Lindy could not help but think this was a trap to finally get her killed. At the same time, she wanted to go back so she can get a status report on her children. It has been six months of not knowing and it was killing her. She desperately wanted to know what was going on in the outside world

    That day Lindy buried the body of that man after making sure there was no one else there. She buried him behind the cabin as the body was too heavy for her to carry further.Since that day, more men would appear and attack her. One and sometimes two a week would come. They would come on any random day and now she had to train and be ready for when they come.She now wore their clothes, especially the warm jackets and their boots. She got better at hunting and would now use animal skin for blankets. She was getting much better at fighting as well.Now she struggled a little with killing the men that she didn’t know where they came from, but what she knew was that they wanted her dead and she didn’t know why.To survive, she made sure that she will train and get better. She swore she will continue to fight for survival until she found a way out of that place.But that had been a mission since there seems to be no way out. She was gone all over the forest but couldn’t find anything that

They drugged her and left with her.The next time when she woke up she was in a cabin in the middle of nowhere. The place was cold because it snowed all the time there. She was freezing cold and there was no one in sight.She got up and looked around and only thing she could see was that there is snow all over the place and it looked like it was surrounded by the forest. She made fire to keep warm but promised to leave the place as soon as she could.But soon realized that she had no clothes or food in the cabin. She needed to hunt to eat and gather firewood to make a fire and keep warm. She only had the thin clothes she wore the day they took her.Because she wanted to survive, the first week she kept herself warm by making fire and sleeping by the fire.

    “Dad why don’t you date again, mom was arrested for years and now she is a fugitive of the law and aunt Mia is dead. Why don’t you date someone else, I promise all of us will be fine with it.” Caroline asked her father as they sat on the table having dinner.“She is right dad, you raised us well, and you have been everything we can ever ask for in a parent and it’s time for you to be happy again.” Andy added. “As long as you are happy am sure all of us will be happy too.” Andy continued.“I hear what you all are saying but I could never date again.” Their father told them and they looked at each other before Caroline asked again. “Why?” Liam sighed. “Because your mother and Mia were the only women for me.” He said then took a sip of his wine.“But you can find someone else dad who will be just as good as them and there are a lot of good single women out there who would love to date you.” Liam shook his head.“No other woman will ever be good enough for me. None of them will ever be Mi

    The smirk on Drake’s face showed how proud he was, he averted his eyes from Lindy and looked at his men’s scared faces and chuckled. “I told you we can do this all night but, I think the lady needs to calm down or she will kill the rest all of you without blinking.” He scanned their faces getting all serious again.“I suggest you take this time to think about what happened here and maybe when we come back or before that you would have told us who the rat is.” He looked at them with cold eyes before looking at Lindy then nodded his head.Lindy walked to his side and stood looking at the men coldly. “The White’s are the enemy and if you are hiding your rat of a friend, then you will be treated as enemy as well. I believe you all know what happens to our enemies.” She gave them on last cold look before leading the way to the door.Drake followed suit with their guard hurrying to take their positions in front, be

    The week went by slowly for Lindy; she was living in constant fear and was having nightmares. All this was caused by the fact that every morning when she opened the newspaper there was something about Jason and Andy.Every picture their man sent, Jason was with Andy and Lindy could not help but be scared by all this. She didn’t know what this meant and she couldn’t even bother Drake about it as he was also busy preparing for the war he believes is coming.To make matters worse, his man never got back to him. Usually, it would take a day or two for him to respond but it has been a week of silence on his end and Drake could not shake the feeling that something happened to him.He was thinking that Jason didn’t only come to see and to warn Lindy to stay away from his son. When he was there, he mentioned knowing about his man but he said he didn’t know who he was. But now that his man is not responding and Drake could not help but think that
