NICOLE'S POV Ruth returned back to the cell with a big smile on her face after she was called by the guard that she had a guest even though her parents came visiting yesterday."Who was that, I thought you had a visitor yesterday." I pointed out because I know we went to the visiting area together when I was going to see Asher and today is Sunday and she still got called again."Yes I did and you won't believe who came visiting today." She seems excited but I don't know who came."Who?" "Peter, Peter Mendoza." I don't understand why her ex came visiting and she's excited about it."As in your ex?" I asked curiously because there might be a chance that I am mistaking things or something.I remember that the last time he was here, I had to force Mike to force him over and after that we took all his money and assets and now he showed up here and she's happy about it?"Yes, as in my ex.""And you are happy to see him because?" I asked curiously because it will be very stupid of her if s
NICOLE'S POV "How long are you going to be here for?" I asked Shelly as we all sat on our regular table at the dining hall. After our little incident in the bathroom weeks ago, she has made it a point of duty to hang around Ruth and I, she hasn't made any wrong or suspicious move yet but I am watching her closely."Five years." She said casually... That's a lot, I didn't expect to hear that at all. I wonder what she did, although I don't think I should ask. She doesn't seem like someone that will want to discuss it with me after all, we are not that close."Wow, that's such a long time, what did you do?" Ruth asked, I guess I am not the only one curious about her crime."Arson." She said with a smile on her face. I really don't know the deal with her but she doesn't seem to feel bad that she's here at all and I wonder why."Is that not the crime of deliberately starting a fire with intent to cause damage?" I asked curiously because I remember coming across it online when I was makin
NICOLE'S POV "So I haven't heard from you concerning the conjugal visit arrangements or have you changed your mind?" Teresa asked curiously as we made our way to Asher's office."I haven't changed my mind but I have more pressing issues at hand right now." I said and I know it will sound strange to her considering the fact that I am locked in prison but I don't exactly owe her an explanation."Oh okay, is there anyway I can help?""Not exactly, I will handle it and as for the conjugal visit stuff, I will get back to you on my decision." There is every tendency that I will cancel it though because I need to focus on my brother and how to get out of here."Okay that's fine." She said just as we got to Asher's office.Teresa opened the door for me and I stepped in... Even though I have been so stressed for some days now, seeing him made me feel so relaxed and I couldn't help the smile that spread across my face."Hey hot doctor." I gushed as I walked towards his desk, although he looks
NICOLE'S POV "Well maybe because I suddenly cancelled on you, shouldn't that be enough reason for you to be upset with me." I reasoned because I have never seen a man that is as chilled as him."I'm not upset at all, yes I was beginning to look forward to it but I can't be upset because you cancelled something you suggested yourself. I understand that you have a lot of things on your plate and the whole conjugal visit thing might not be the right time besides have you seen you, how can I be mad at my pretty, sexy trouble maker?" He teased and it made me laugh."You are so cunning." I teased as I gave him a hug. "But you are the best and I am so lucky to have you." I said truthfully just as I got a glimpse of the clock.This is the first time that I have come into his office and lost complete track of time, we have less than five minutes to go and I didn't even realize it till now. "No babe, I am the lucky one and I really need you to get out of here as soon as possible because one h
NICOLE'S POV TWO WEEKS LATER...It's been over two weeks since the incident with Shelly and she seems fine now but it's obvious that she's still upset, I can tell with the way she's staring at Lizzy and her new crew across the dining hall.It's painful,I know especially because she only got to stay in solitary confinement for a few days while Shelly was busy fighting for her life but she's either planning to do something like I did or she should just move on."You can't keep staring at them like that." I pointed out because it will only make them happy that they got away and she can't get over them."They can't get away with this, I need to do something. They have to pay for what they did to me." She said mindlessly."Then do something, leaving them for God will be a weenie move and I am not in support." Ruth said and I am actually not surprised.She has changed so much since the incident with Peter and ever since I helped her get her revenge, she has been so different and I am strug
NICOLE'S POV "I'm so exhausted." I said by the time we returned to the cell after the activities of the day."Yeah me too, today was fun though." Ruth noted and she's right."Yeah, it's was fun." But honestly, I am over the type of fun that we have here. I just want something new and different.I climbed to my top bunk and I checked my burner phone to see if I had any missed calls or something and to my surprise, I had five missed calls from Mike and it got me worried, did something happen again?If he is calling this much, then something has happened, probably something bad... I need to call him, I didn't bother to ask Ruth to keep watch since it's already very late, no one will come around here any more."Mike, sorry I missed your call. You know how it is here, we basically don't have a life of our own." I explained."It's fine boss.""Did something happened?" I asked worriedly because he has never called me this much."Yes something happened, something good. You remember I told yo
NICOLE'S POV "You guys look happy." Shelly noted as soon as we joined her at our regular table with our food. "And stressed." She added.Well Ruth and I didn't get any sleep last night, we were so happy after my call with Mike and we couldn't sleep after that, we stayed awake making plans and thinking of our new life."You are right about that, I am really happy and we didn't sleep a wink last night." Ruth pointed out as soon as she sat down."Really, what happened?" She asked and Ruth hesitated to talk.I know that she wants me to be the one to tell her because she feels bad that we are leaving her here and I feel bad too but now is not the real time."Well, I got the news last night that we are getting out of here soon." I stated right before I started eating."When you say we, did you mean both of you?" "Yeah, Ruth and I." I confirmed, I am not going to lie to her just to make her feel good. "I have started working on your release but it can't meet up with our time frame." I lied
NICOLE'S POV "When is your birthday?" Asher suddenly asked while I was enjoying my ice cream and chocolate."Ummm, well it's still far. It's in October and I hate celebrating my birthday." I mean who wouldn't hate birthday's after what I experienced.My parents were killed on my birthday and I was brutally raped by the gang leader who has somehow managed to escape death for six years now. "Why did you ask?" "Well I just remembered that my birthday is around the corner and I was wondering if I have missed your birthday already." My birthday is like two months away and I haven't celebrated since the incident that happened six years ago and I don't intend to start now."It doesn't matter, I hate my birthday and I don't like to celebrate or even remember the day." I have never discussed my birthday with him and I didn't care to ask him about his birthday because I prefer to avoid birthday related topics but I was wrong to assume he doesn't care about birthdays. "When is your birthday?"
NICOLE'S POV I can't believe he just threatened me, is he really going to send me back to prison? I can't believe it, I am the victim here and now everyone is upset and judging me because I want revenge, he ruined my life and sending him to prison is just too easy and I need him to suffer."Nicole, you have to drop this. You heard what he said, are you really going to throw everything you have away because of revenge that won't make you feel any better?" Betty asked as she followed me to my room but I am so upset with her for defending and supporting them instead of supporting me."How do you know, how do you know that it won't make me feel better?" I asked angrily."You have killed five people already, do you feel any better or different than you felt before you went in your adventure of killing spree?" She asked curiously. Why is she attacking me like I am the worst person on earth."No I don't feel better because I have not killed the most important person, Logan is the leader an
ASHER'S POV This is a nightmare, what am I going to do? I went into the room to get my phone to call Logan but his number is unreachable, so I decided to call Aaron instead."Hey man, what's up? I'm right in front of your house." He said as soon as he picked up."Well come in, there is a problem." I said before hanging up the call."Hey, was that not Nicole's car I saw on my way here?" He asked curiously as soon as he stepped in."Yeah, there is a situation at hand Aaron. She just told me now that she left that day because of Logan, she saw the scar on his nipple and that she gave him that scar and the one in his brows six years ago when he invaded her house with five guys and Logan himself raped her but the real problem right now is that she said she will kill him." I informed as I started pacing around again."That's ridiculous, she can't even hurt a fly." He stated while laughing and I see nothing funny here."She can and she will, she has already killed the five guys he went with
ASHER'S POV Today was a long day, in fact the last one week has been ridiculously long. I go to Nicole's office every morning before I go to work and I check her at home every evening after work and honestly, I am tired. I am tired of stressing myself trying to figure out what I did to her that warrants this sudden change... It's been over a week now since she rushed out of here with no explanations, so I have decided to let her be. I am going to give her the space she's looking for, no more chasing after her like a fly, I am done.I made my way to my room after work and I got rid of my suit and I was about to take my shit off when I heard a knock on the door and I made my way out to get it. "Nicole?" I opened the door and I am shocked to see her standing there. "Ummm, come in." I said as I left the way.She's definitely the last person I expected to see standing here today and I am not going to lie, she doesn't look good. Her hair is messy and she has eye bags, she looked stressed a
NICOLE'S POV "I'm going to kill him." The only question now is how and when, I mean I can't just kill him cheaply like I killed others, he was the gang leader and the architect of everything that happened to me, so a quick death will be a waste of revenge... I spent six years of my life looking for him, so I have to give him a befitting death, something worthy of the chase."He deserves a tremendous death." Something grand but painful and slow, I need him to beg for death the same way I begged him now to rape me. I need him to beg for mercy like I did, I need him to offer me things in exchange for his life like my parents offered them everything just to spare me but he refused. I need him to cry, scream, beg, explain why he decided to ruin my family and after that I want him to beg for a quick death while I derive pleasure in watching him squirm.I stayed in bed all day looking for the best way to kill him and everything that comes to mind seems too easy to be compared to what he did
ASHER'S POV If I say that I understand what happened this morning or what's happening right now, it will be a blatant lie. I'm confused as fuck, she came in here looking excited and she even brought food and the next minute, she started acting weird and she was even crying before she rushed out of here without any explanation.I got back into the house and I met Aaron and Logan laughing and eating the same food she brought over."Hey, how did it go?" Aaron asked as soon as he saw me."I don't know, I didn't see her." I pointed out as I plopped on the couch... I am so frustrated and upset, I didn't see my weekend turning out like this.She showed up unannounced and I was really excited about it, I thought we were going to spend the day together but all of a sudden, she saw Logan and she acted like this was her first time of seeing him, they work together for God's sake. If not that I know how much they like each other and get along, I would have said that she doesn't like him because
NICOLE'S POV As I sat on my bathroom floor, the weight of my discovery came crashing down and crushing me, tears streamed down my face like a river and my body shook uncontrollably as I kept sobbing. I want to stop crying but I can't, it's just too much. "Arghhh." I screamed as I gasped for breath, my chest heaved in an unhealthy manner with each ragged breath I took. "Why did it have to be him?" I sobbed as I managed to get up and I stood under the running shower while still wearing my clothes.I just want the water to wash away all the tears, pain and confusion. "Oh my God, why?" My mind reeled of thoughts of desperate answers. "What am I going to do, Asher, Logan... What will I do?" My heart shattered into a million pieces as I found myself drowning in a sea of tears or maybe it's just the water from the shower."Nicole, Nicole." Betty called and knocked but even as I tried to respond, my voice is barely audible. "Your phone is ringing Nicole." She informed and I know without a do
NICOLE'S POV ONE MONTH LATER..."Wow, someone looks nice." Betty said as soon as she stepped into my room and noticed that I that I am dressed.I want to go over to Asher's place to surprise him this Saturday, he is not expecting me but I asked the chef to make something nice that I will take over to them."Thanks girl." I spun around for her in my orange yellow color summer vibe set two piece, it's consist of dark orange yellow T-Shirts and color-block wide-leg pants. It's was part of the things I bought when I went shopping with Shelly and Ruth last month, it's beautiful. "I am going over to visit Asher." I said while smiling."That's nice, anyways enjoy your day. I am going out with Mike too, he wants me to meet his friend." She pointed out and I am so surprised that he even has friends.I have never seen or heard him having a friendly conversation over the phone before, so this is really new to me but I shouldn't be surprised, I mean he is dating Betty right? So he definitely has
NICOLE'S POV The first thing I did when we got here was to send Asher a quick text because I know I can get carried away and forget to tell him.ME: "Hi doctor hot lips, I am around now. We are a bit early, so we will have to wait a bit. How is your day going, if you are not free to come over, don't stress it. We can see at home later in the day." MY BABY:"Oh I am sorry babe but I have a session right now and it just started, so I can't get out of it but I will come over to the house later, you guys should have fun... Love you." I read his text before putting my phone away, I actually didn't expect to see him, I knew he was going to be busy by the time we are here and it's fine, I prefer him to come over to the house anyway.We got to the prison pretty earlier than I thought, we have been here for like five minutes now and it's just fifteen minutes to two which means we will still be here for like twenty minutes or more because of the checking out process... I seriously don't kno
NICOLE'S POV I woke up the next morning to the sound of the shower running and I checked the time to see it's already a few minutes to nine. How does he do it, how does he manage to stay up all night and still manage to wake up early enough to go to work in the morning without feeling exhausted while I am feeling so knackered and to think he did all the work and all I did was to just enjoy it."I can't go to work today." I said when I remembered that I am supposed to go to the prison to pick up Shelly. There is no way I can make it out of bed early enough to get to work first before going to the prison, so I think it's best I stay here and we can leave from here, I really don't have to go to work.I managed to convince myself as I stay in bed, rolling from side to side until I found my phone, I need to call Ruth and ask her to come here instead of going to my office. I called her like twice but she didn't pick. "Maybe she's still in bed or something." I said before tossing the phone
