Alena just got in Edmund's private jet, and she still doesn't know where they are going. She changed into jeans and a v neck shirt before leaving. She sat in front of him, and looked outside as she was so nervous about the all honeymoon thing.
She doesn't know what to do. Did he expect anything from her?
She was nervous. They always had the same rule. One of the things her mother thought was, that they weren't to have sexual relationship with a guy before marriage. Even after her mom, Willa has always been pretty clear with it. Reason why she never wanted a boyfriend. She didn't want to be tempted at a young age. She and Avrielle never complained about that tough, because they believed that's what was right and that's what they believed in.
She looked at Edmund to see him already staring at her. "You look tired. Why don't you go take a rest. There's a bedroom on the back," he said.
She nodded
Alena and Edmund have been married for a month now. And things aren't really going as she expected. Since their honeymoon, he doesn't look at her, or talk to her or touch her. When she tried to talk to him, he just make the conversation short, and walked away. She doesn't know why, but it hurts so bad."Don't forget about Penelope's parents anniversary today," she reminded him as he was fixing his own tie to go to work.She sighed when no response came from him, and walked up to him. "Is everything alright?" she asked him, putting her hand on his back.He just walked away, sighing. "Don't wait for me. I will be there when I am done with my work," he said as he took his keys, and walked away.She looked at him as he walked out of the room. She started crying silently without even realizing it. She was so weak. She gave him her virginity since the honeymoon. She was starting to fall in love with him, a
It's been two days since the party, and Edmund got back to the way he was. He started ignoring Alena again. Alena doesn't know what the hell is wrong with him.She shook her head, and got up to take a shower. Today, she was hanging out with Avrielle and Penelope.Seriously, she doesn't know what's wrong with her husband. She tried talking to him and did everything she could to get his attention. She think she just going to leave him alone for now.She drew a deep breath, and did her makeup, straighten her hair and put her clothes on. She grabbed her purse and phone, then went to her car and started the engine.After 30 minutes of driving, she parked her car, and went inside the restaurant they were supposed to meet at. Penelope and Avrielle were already there. She hugged them both, sat down beside Avrielle, and started talking."So, how are you doing, Mrs. Cardinal?" Penelope ask
Alena woke up to see Edmund's side empty. She fought the urge to cry, and got out off bed, wrapping the surrounding sheets. She went to the bathroom, and stared at her reflection.Seriously, what was she expecting?She closed her eyes for a few seconds, and when she opened them, she jumped as she saw Edmund leaning against the door frame, staring at her. She was shocked to see him here. She thought he was at work."Good morning," he said walking toward her. He grabbed her waist and pecked her lips. "You look surprised." He chuckled in a bit.What's so funny? Jerk."Good morning." She sighed, trying to get out of his grip, but he wouldn't let her."I want to have lunch with you. Come to my office later," he said, making her look at him surprised.She raised her eyebrow. "And why?""I want to spend time with my wife. Is that a bad thing?" He kissed softly her naked shoulders and neck.She shook her head."Alri
Alena and Edmund were here in London since yesterday. Alena was currently getting ready for the gala. She finished her hair and makeup, and put her dress on.Edmund walked in the room, wearing a black tuxedo. He stopped and started eyeing her for head to toe while smiling. "You look gorgeous," he complimented her, giving her lips a softly kiss."Thank you.""Let's go?"She nodded, and he grabbed her waist. When they got there, there was already a lot of people, smiling and laughing."Alena," someone called her behind her. She gasped, and turned around to find a smiling Avrielle.What her sister doing here in London?"Avrielle!" She quickly hugged her sister. Beside Avrieele was Lucio, smiling at her.Lucio shook Edmund's hand. "Hey, man."Avrielle greeted
Alena couldn't even sleep. She was so excited. She woke up like four times to see if it was morning, so they can go out. When she woke up again, it was still dark.She sighed. She felt Edmund moved lightly on his side of the bed, before wrapping a lazy arm on her. She frowned, looking outside before drifting back to sleep.**She woke up again, and got out of bed to look outside. The sun was rising. She smiled excitedly, and sat on the bed. She squealed lightly as she turned to Edmund, started shaking him to wake him up."Edmund," she whispered, and he groaned. "Edmund," she whispered again but he ignored her. "Edmund!" She yelled, shaking him harder."What, woman? What?" He groaned irritated, opening his eyes lightly."It's morning. Get up!"He looked outside for a moment, and looked at her, sighing. "No. It's still dark."
So what? He is just going to walk away like that? No. Alena followed her husband to the living room. "Hey!" she said, hitting his back. "What do you take me for?" she asked, glaring at him. "I'm not going to turn my back on my friends just because you want me to." Edmund glared at her, and was about to speak, but she cut him off. "No. Let me finish — You can't control my life, Edmund James Cardinal. He has more than a friend to me. He has always been like my brother. And you want me to turn my back on him? That's not happening. I'm not going to tell him to leave me alone, and even if you tell him to, that's not going to stop me." He just looked at her, his face emotionless. "I'm not Irina," she continued. "So you can't control everything I do." His face still emotionless. "You do it or I will." His hand reach for her face, but she slapped it away.
Alena woke up with a huge headache. She looked around to see that she was in their room. She remembered about yesterday, and her heart started beating faster.She slowly walked out of bed when she saw that Edmund was nowhere in sight. She couldn't even explain what happened yesterday. Did he really try to kill her, or he was just trying to scare her?His eyes were so blank. He was apologizing days ago. He wanted to make it up to her. What happened to that?Shw walked to the bathroom and looked at herself in the mirror. Her heart skipped a beat when she saw her bruised neck. There's no way makeup will be able to hide this. Why did he do this to her?She started sobbing. She couldn't control herself. She shook her head as more tears were dropping. She closed her eyes for a few seconds to calm herself down. When she opened them, she jumped as she saw Edmund against the door frame, looking at her,
It's been two days. Edmund didn't come into the room, and Alena was glad. Rebecca has been bringing her food but will leave again, locking the door. Rebecca doesn't answer when she was talking to her, even look at her. She doesn't have her phone, so she haven't heard from anyone. She can't stay like this. She have to get the hell out of here. She went to the walk-in closet, and quickly put leggings, long sleeves shirts and cream eggs. She put a gum in her mouth, and sat on the bed with her book in hands, waiting for Rebecca to bring her diner. A couple of minutes later, Rebecca finally walked with a tray. "Oh, Rebecca," she said, getting out of bed smiling. But Rebecca didn't say anything. She discretely walked towards the door, took the gum that was in her mouth, and put in the door frame along with a small paper ball. She looked back at Rebecca to see her still occupied. Good. She smirked at hersel
Edmund was in the WalMart for a few minutes, and I still can't find the name brand Pads for Irina.He gave up looking when he walked out. He had a pit in his stomach and felt very nervous at that point, why? He had no idea.He began driving home when he became restless an unsettling feeling riled up inside him, making him drive home faster than ever.Something was wrong with Irina. He thought to himself as he ran into the house."Irina?" Edmund screamed but no voice came answering back.He bolted to the bathroom she was in last, and found a note on the floor.After reading it her heart swelled then after realization hit him. It bursted and broke into a trillions of pieces.Irina was being abused by her own family. She was trying to kill herself because she thought her pain would be end.
"You mind if I sit here?" Iñigo came and sat beside Ana."Sure, you can sit there.""Whats your name beautiful?" He asked, making Ana blush a little. She haven't done that in a while."Its Ana. I'm here for my friend, she invited me. Whats yours?" Ana watched as he licked his lips before speaking."Iñigo." "He said smiling a little showing his dimples that An just now noticing; which are making him even more sexy.He grabbed her hand. "Lets go dance."Ana followed him.She started moving her hips to the beat of the song playing. He placed one hand on her hip. "Get right, Ana! Get right!" She heard her friend Jessy yell from where ever she was."You wanna come to my place, Ana?" Iñigo whispered in her ear sending chills down my back."Yeah, sure." She nodded."Use protection!" Jessy ass yelled as they both Ana and Iñigo made their way out the club.They walked up to this shiny black range rover. Iñigo opened the door letting Ana in, then jogged over to his side. "Do you mind?" He aske
The sound of the alarm clock woke Atasha out of her sleep, shielding her eyes from the light that was coming through the window she made her way to the bathroom where she splashed some water on her face.She was shocked when she took in her appearance in the mirror,she was still in her dress but more shocked when she realised she was actually in her room, and not remembering getting here on her own, She face palmed herself as she realized maybe Iverson or his driver had brought her in, as she vividly remembered falling asleep due to the slow music the driver had been playing.After few minutes of feeling embarrassed, she decided to take her bath and screamed out loud when she realized that she was late for work.After rushing, and cursing, and shouting, and dropping, and throwing things Atasha was finally ready and out of the house. She waved for the taxi approaching and quickly buttoned up her jack cause of the cold.When the taxi stopped in front of her, she hurriedly got into it, a
When the car stopped indicating that they had arrived Atasha exhaled for the tenth time since she had been in the car with Iverson who never bothered to have a conversion with her even when he got off the phone five minutes ago.Atasha's door was pulled open by the man who apparently was the driver. She muttered a little thank you to him and stepped out of the car, that was when she realized that the sun had gone down but it wasn't completely dark yet. They had stopped in front of a restaurant it had an Italian name so Atasha didn't bother reading it.Iverson came and took Atasha's arms in his, which made Atasha hold her breathe, not because he took her unaware whatsoever but because she couldn't believe the mighty Iverson Cardinal knight whom she had only heard about in the news, or seen his pictures on magazines was asking her to marry him, actually he never asked but the thought of this man being her husband was worth holding her breath for."Shall we? Annd please smile," Iverson s
Atasha was surprised, confused and startled at the same time. She was trying to make sense out of the words that where coming out of his mouth.Marriage? Atasha had no plans of getting married not now maybe next year and when she does, she was planing on getting married to the love of her life, to a man that loved her and cherished her, she wants to have a happy home, a home full of love and happiness like her late parents.She had always admired how her parents loved each other to the extent that they died together, that was the kind of marriage she wanted to be in, a contract marriage had never been on Astaha's plans hell no if he hadn't mentioned it she wouldn't have imagined it ever till the day she died.She never wanted to be in a contract marriage besides she had read books about them and the marriage was never a pleasant one to be in, no love nothing, the thought of it was horrible more especially, she didn't even know the man.Why her? Was the next question that came to her m
The noise of pages turning was the only sound heard in that room until there was a sigh. It was a sigh of tiredness that had left his lips, unable to take in the situation."So there is no other way to get the property?" Iverson asked, looking at the lawyer with a cold expression. The lawyer smiled nervously glancing at the person sitting beside the cold man."No," He replied meekly not wanting to upset him because he was very well capable of destroying him."Read that clause again." He ordered leaning back on his chair and staring at him intensely. The lawyer fumbled through the pages before getting to that clause and reading it out loudly."Transfer my entire property to my youngest son, Iverson Cardinal which includes 4 mansions, 3 farmhouses, 50% share from my company, and the neighbouring land, but only after it is made sure that he has a son or daughter of his own. If at all he remains single when he turns tweny-seven, all of my property must be transferred to a trust." He compl
After Edmund was down beating the guy to pulp I pulled him off to the library."Where are we going?" He asked as I tug on his arm.I don't answer but keep trudging along pain searing through every vein."God, Irina. What happened? Why the hell are you wearing shorts?" Edmund asked and I stop in my tracks, tears already brimming my eyes."Fuck! I'm sorry, I didn't mean it to-" he noticed I'm crying, so he pulled me into a hug. I hugged him back knowing my plan is working."I-I'm sc-scared. I-I don't wa-want t-to live l-like this any-anymore!" I yelled to him gripping onto his shirt for balance."It's okoy. You can live with me in our house, it'll be alright. Nothing will happen to you, I'll make sure of it," he assured, and that makes me rethink my plan.He doesn't matter, no-one does, do it a voice says, and I listen to it. "Take me to your house please?" I said, wiping my tears, and letting go of his shirt."I will." He smiled, and leads me to his car.**A few weeks passed and I gre
This was ultimately the worst beating I've ever had, it was the best one I've ever had.My dad jumped on my stomach, he's about 250 pounds, what do you think happened to me? You guessed it, I heard and felt cracking in three different places, I'm sure he broke my ribs.Prima had a small knife in her hands as she turned me over and sliced into my back, it was painful even though the cuts were shallow.She decided to slash at my arms and legs also drawing blood from almost every inch of my body.After kicking and punching me several times they went up into my room and took out all my pants replacing them with shorts and replacing all my sweaters with t-shirts.It was going to be horrible at school tomorrow, but I deserve it, anything they their at me is because I deserve it, and they let me know that. It's been carved into my brain the first time they hit me.People were going to stare and ask if I'm okay, I don't need their pity and I'll tell them that.I'm so beaten and worn out that
"How would you even put this on?" I asked Edmund, holding up two pieces of fabric that would barely cover any part of my body.He laughed, and puts the bikini back on the shelf, walking over to another he pulls out another one that looks."How about this one?" he asked as i look at it I become more infatuated with it.It's yellow and simple, it almost looks like a pair underwear and a bra."Let me try it on," I said, walking over to the dressing rooms."Can I help?" Edmund asked seductively and I blush deeply."N-no. . ." I stutter out as I walk into one of the rooms.Okay, I would've loved for him to help me, I think I'm falling for his charms! I can't though, he's the campus bad boy, my father would be more than furious and try to kill him, though I wouldn't be surprised. I just can't fall for him. It's so annoying how safe I feel in his arms or how our hands mold perfectly together, I can't take it, I just know I'll be falling for him soon. Why must I love so easily.I don't even k
