I Wedded My Rival 85
Pain seared through my entire body and I could not feel anything for a few seconds. Uncle Benjamin ran to my side and tried to bring me back up to my feet but the pain in my Head was too much and I could not bear standing up.“Ohh Felicity, I'm sorry.” My uncle ran to my side and pulled me back to my feet.“Ow..” I groaned. The word brought about another bout of pain, this time from my throat. Tears blinded Me for a moment.That bitch kicked the wheelchair away on purpose. I saw her do it, I was so angry that my aching body began to shake.“There, Felicity take it easy.” He said gently as he brought me to the wheelchair and I sat down on it gingerly.All that time Sarah had stood watching like someone who was in shock. I knew the act was not for me but she looked pretty damn convincing and it annoyed me even more. What was wrong with this woman?“Ohh my God Felicity, I'm so sorry.” She exclaimed, bringing her hands up to get her mouth. “It was an accident.” She ran to my side and trie

I turned my head sharply at her words. I must have not heard her right, did she just confess?“Yes dear cousin, I tried to kill you and your stupid child. I know you knew I was the one behind all those attempts, you might be a spoiled rich brat but you're not stupid.” She said, I looked at her, it felt like I was lost in a trance. O should be recording this. I fumbled through my pockets, searching for my phone in its depth. Sarah saw this and broke into a mad bout of laughter.“You foolish bitch.” She whispered fiercely, “You think I would have left you with your phone? You think I'll give you a chance to trap me?” She pushed my forehead disrespectfully and laughed out loud.One of the little girls ran over from the little stream they had been frolicking in to say hi to Sarah.“Hello, Miss.” The little girl greeted in her sweet little voice. Sarah bent down and cupped the little girl's cheeks.“Hello Sandra, how are you? You seem to be having a lot of fun.” Sarah was a completely diff

Sarah turned to my uncle and for a moment I thought she had forgotten how to breathe. Her face turned pale and her mouth drooped.“U-uncle..” she stammered. Uncle Benjamin raised his hand, shutting her up. His eyes were red and I could see tears standing at the edge of his lashes. “Why?” That was all he asked.“Why what uncle?” Sarah asked, feigning ignorance. “How long have you been standing there?” She peeked behind him, checking to see if there were other intruders.“Long enough to have heard everything, my dear niece. So it was all you?” He asked in a quiet sad way. “How could you do this to your own family?”I knew how and why she did it. It was because of her stupid greed. she had to have the best or it wasn't worth it. She had Marcus first, a potential billionaire but she had to have my husband who she discarded like a bad toy when my uncle came along.“You don't understand uncle…it was all a joke.” She stammered. My uncle's face looked incredulous. “A joke?” His voice increa

“Sanchez what are you doing? Unhand me now.” Uncle Benjamin ordered but the big man Paid no attention to his words. My uncle struggled some more but he was too old and the guards were too strong for him.“How dare you three!!” He yelled.“He's yapping too much.” Sarah nodded at one of the guards and he nodded back at her. The man who my Uncle had called Sanchez twisted my uncle's index finger at an acute angle. The old man yelled out in agony and thrashed about. He tried to move the big man off him but he was just too big.“Are you ready to calm down uncle?” Sarah asked with a wicked grin. I had once thought that I was a psychopath, that I was unpredictable, but this woman was something more. She was something I could not even begin to explain.“You bitch!!”Uncle Benjamin roared.“Yeah, yeah I am a bitch. I know that already. You don't have to rub it in my face. Bitch, hoe, whore, you name it.” She said and walked back to her seat.Uncle Benjamin was getting exhausted and his efforts

As I think of what to do and how to escape, I realize that my situation is way worse than I thought. I wasn't just dealing with Sarah but an unknown villain she referred to as Boss. Almost immediately I could hear Sarah's voice outside the door, whispering to whoever on something I couldn't fathom.Just then someone laughs outside my door and it's Sarah. "Just give up, Felicity," Sarah hisses. "No one is coming to save you. Not even the Fool you call a husband. You're all alone, with no one to help you." I close my eyes, trying to block out her words. I know she's trying to break me, to make me give in. But I can't let her win. I have to stay strong.I focus on my breathing, trying to calm myself. I take deep breaths as I mutter under my breath. In and out I say to myself. But my heart is still racing, my pulse pounding loudly in my ears. As I sit there, trying to stay calm, an idea comes to me. There's a small window in the corner of the room. It's high up on the wall, a

As we approach the room where the Boss is, I see Sarah from a distance standing next to who I guess is the Boss. I can't see him at first, as he's turned backward. But as we approach, he steps forward, and I see his face for the first time. He is tall and imposing, with cold, hard eyes. I can't help but shiver when he looks at me, and I feel a sense of dread wash over me. "Welcome to my home," he says, his voice like ice. I felt angered for this was my Uncle's Mansion, who was this man, and how dare he claim my relative's house as his, I thought to myself.The Boss studies me for a moment, his eyes piercing g into mine. Then, he turns to Sarah "And who is this?" he asks, his voice cold and calculated. "She's the Idiots niece," I hear Sarah say, with so much hatred in her voice. Blood was supposed to be thicker than water or however, the saying goes. I doubt Sarah was my cousin."Is that so?" the Boss says, a sly smile spreading across his face. "I think this game just got inte

Weary and tired I collapsed at the river's edge, my body hurt and bruised, I could feel my baby's tears inside me. I have been through a lot since I took In yet my child was still kicking, I could swear it was a female child because they are naturally resilient. Suddenly I hear voices, and I see a light moving towards me. I struggle to sit up, as I see a rowboat approaching. A man and a woman are in the boat, and they're rowing towards me. As they get closer, I can see their faces more clearly. It's a strange woman and she's with a man with kind eyes. "Are you okay?" the woman asks, her voice filled with concern. I can only nod, my words still caught in my throat. “Your Uncle alerted us, we'd take you to safety” she added looking at me with great pity.The man helps me into the boat, and I collapse into a seat. "We'll take you to safety," the woman says. She pushes the boat off from the riverbank, and the man starts rowing. I close my eyes, letting the gentle rocking of the b

I see spots of blood and I scream. “What's the matter, “ the woman asked looking at me worriedly. I point downwards and she looks down to see a huge scorpion under my leg. Before I winked, she had smashed the scorpion and messed up the floor. I look at the woman curiously. She smiled at me before coming to sit with me again. “ They are common on this part of the land, I'm glad you saw it before it could harm you and your child” she spoke like a research scientist. “ Anyways let's forget about the creature, it's my job to protect you. I owe your Uncle that, But now, What are you going to do?" the woman asks. "You have a child on the way. You need to take care of yourself, and your baby." I look down at my stomach, and I place my hand on it. I think about the life inside me, and what kind of life I want to give this child. "I want to start over," I say. "I want to start fresh, and make a new life for myself and my baby." The woman smiles. "I can help you with that," she says. “I

I hesitated, with my heart racing. I was aware I shouldn't get close to anyone in this new project let alone build attachment as I was willing to risk my life and put an end to this, but Iskander's sincerity was undeniable."Iskander," I called out with a whisper, my eyes searching his face. "You've already done so much for me. I don't know what I would have done without you."I stepped closer, my body drawn towards his like a magnet. I could feel the warmth radiating from him, the strength in his arms. The moment seemed to slow down, as the world around us began fading into the background."I know I shouldn't," I said, with my voice low, I was feeling things I couldn't explain. "but I can't fight this anymore."Iskander's hand cupped my face, his thumb brushing against my cheek.I leaned in and closed the distance between us with my lips finding his in a kiss that was both gentle and passionate. I could feel the surprise in his body, a momentary hesitation that quickly dissolved into

The bright and sunny sky with the fresh warm air greeted me as I stepped out of the plane, holding Austin tightly in my arms. My heart, still beating rapidly from the events that I had just experienced, my heartbeat began to slow down. I couldn't believe we had made it out alive, let alone escaped to a place of safety. Glancing over my shoulder, I saw Iskander guiding the babysitter towards the terminal. The sight of him, rugged and determined, filled me with a sense of relief and gratitude As I made my way through the airport, the sight of normalcy around me contrasted sharply with the chaos and danger I had faced back in Hawaii. Yet, even as the adrenaline began to subside, my mind was already fixating on one thing which was retribution."Enough," I muttered under my breath, a strong determination replacing the fear that had gripped me earlier. "I'm going to find out why Sarah is after me, and I'm going to end it."Austin's soft coo snapped me back to reality. I glanced down at his

The babysitter laughed with her bandaged arm at Austin. “He's always looking for one reason to cry,” she said. “No, he's just unhappy that his mother is crying, that's how he consoles her,” He said.We drove for hours, through the city and then out into the countryside. The babysitter was quiet, her eyes closed as she rested. I tried to stay alert with Iskander, scanning the landscape for any sign of danger. But the soldiers seemed confident that we were safe, and eventually, my nerves began to settle. As we drove further and further from the city, I started to relax. The soldiers were highly skilled, and I felt confident that they would keep us safe. I looked over at the babysitter, who was still sleeping peacefully. I felt a wave of gratitude wash over me. She was safe, and I was glad she survived, I didn't want her to be part of something she knew nothing about, and being the victim through death would make me hate myself.We pulled into a street and the soldiers led us through a

Iskander kept mute for a while, then he sighed. “All right, who is this soldier you seem to trust so much,” he said looking at me.“Soldier Bellion” I replied immediately. “You trust him? You just met him”. Iskander said looking like I said something wrong. “She is a female actually, But I address her by her third name since her first is Sarah.” I stopped to catch my breath. “Since Sarah is trying to kill me, we had to use another name” I added. “I see,” Iskander said slowly. Just then Soldier Bellion walked in, she reduced her pace as she stared at Iskander critically. “Is he your brother?” She asked as she stood between the both of us. “No no, he is not” I quickly responded. “I am so sorry,” Soldier Bellion said. “This is a first,” I said grinning. “First what?...” Soldier Bellion asked. “So you see the question usually goes ‘Is he your husband’ This is a first to be ‘Is he your brother?’ I explained softly to her. “I understand now” she nodded. “He is my bodyguard,” I told her. I

"I'm with some soldiers," I say, trying to keep my voice calm. "They're taking me somewhere safe.""Where are you?" Iskander asks again, his voice insistent. "I need to know where you are."I take a deep breath and tell him the location. I can hear him let out a sigh of relief. "I'm on my way," he says. "Just hold on."I nod, even though he can't see me. I'm just relieved that both of them were fine.The Soldiers guard me and Austin to their Barracks. They leave me with guards and a female soldier who attends to me. I could tell Austin was hungry. “Please Ma, can I get a spot to breastfeed my baby” I ask as Austin begins to whimper and stretch his arms towards my chest.“Surely there is, follow me,” she said with a smile. She walked me into a room that seemed like a dormitory. “You must be hungry, I'd get you something” she spoke with sympathy. “Oh no, it's fine I'm okay” I quickly replied not wanting to bother her. “You are a breastfeeding mother, I've been a mother too and if your

My heart suddenly went cold as tears streamed through my eyes. I heard Iskanders Car explode over the phone. For some reason, my eardrums seemed to be functioning. I looked down at Austin, whose blanket was adjusted for him to breathe. My son seemed to understand the situation as he didn't try to play or grab anything. He just fell asleep. I wanted to break down and curse out loud, why me? Why do I always have to be on the run?Suddenly I spot five cars from the side window. I needed no soothsayer, to let me know they were after me. My engine roared as I increased my speed and sped off, taking off one arm regularly to secure Austin.The trees and houses by the road almost felt like I was in the car race which I played as a kid. The wind was whizzing by as I raced down the road. I could feel my heart pounding in my chest, my breath coming in gasps. I've never driven so fast in my life, but I know I have to get away from the men who are after me. I can see them in the rearview mirror,

The chef chuckled “You have such a bubbly kid, try this one” she said handing me another. It was awesome when it melted in my mouth, It wasn't ice cream but it was awesome. Iskander and the babysitter shook their heads in satisfaction. “Thank you so much for this” Iskander said as we rounded up and our stomachs filled to the brim.Austin had a swell time as he slowly fell asleep. “I'll see you all tomorrow, do have a good night's rest,” Iskander said as he left for his room. “Madam, should I take him for a bath” The babysitter asked as she tried to carry Austin. “No, don't worry I want to be with him, I'd bathe him myself” I replied as I waved her to her room.Bathing Austin was easy, he was barely awake except when the water touched his skin and he quickly slept off from there.I took my bathe and secured Austin with a pillow, kissing his forehead before my head hit the bed.Sarah strutted about the mansion “Why are these men finding it difficult to pick up a call !” she yelled to th

“My son is a clingy young man, moreover the baby supplies here are a bit harsh on his skin. We'd have to get new ones tomorrow”. I replied. “Aww, so that's what he was trying to tell us,” the babysitter said moving closer to him and rubbing his cheeks. Austin chuckled like one who was not about to bring down the roof with his wailing a few hours earlier. Iskander yawned loudly, Austin seemed to watch him as he even chuckled more. “Now you are laughing at me?” Iskander asked as he dragged his foot. Austin seemed to be In good spirits for the evening as he kept smiling and wouldn't let anyone, not even the babysitter touch him.“Guess what guys,” Iskander asked grinning. “You got a secret phone for Austin?” The babysitter responded. “Haha, that will be crazy,” I said laughing. Iskander looked stunned “That's some guess,” he said “but it's not correct” he added. “Fill us in already, I'm bored,” I said. “You can't be bored In Hawaii,” Iskander said. “Yeah I thought so until the stranges

The boy looked at them nervously. "What do you want?" he asked."We're looking for information," the other henchman said. "We're willing to pay for it." He pulled out a wad of cash from his pocket and held it out. "We need to know the room number of one of the guests." The bellboy's eyes widened at the sight of the money, he gasped as He glanced around, checking around to see if anyone was in sight. Then he took the cash and shoved it into his pocket. "What's the room number?" he asked, his voice low.“That's the information we need, we have the picture of the person” one of the henchmen replied. The boy's expression turned sour. "I don't know if I can do this," he said, looking confused. "I could get into huge trouble."But then the money was too much and way beyond his yearly salary he thought and he agreed to help. He led them to a secluded part of the hotel, where they planned on how to receive the information.Felicity's pov Back in the hotel room, I got hungry and quickly orde
