NICOLE'S POV
" Really." " Yes, I miss you too. Thursday is my favorite day of the week since I started meeting up with you." " Me too, it's crazy but me too. I find you really interesting and I am curious about you." I blushed because after my confession about all my atrocities, I partially thought that things would be weird between us. " So you don't dislike me for everything I have done?" " Of course not, I would have done the same. They deserve it and that's in your past now, right?" " Right." Did he forget when I said I had one more person to kill or he just wants to pretend we didn't have the conversation. " Anyways, enough about me. Tell me something about you." I changed the topic because I hate talking about my life. I spent hours with Asher, gisting about random things. I have learnt a few things about him and I know he just lost his wife. " What happened to her?" " An accident, hit and run driver." I guess that's why he looked so sad on Thursday. " I am sorry." " It's fine, I am used to it." That was a little strange to hear, did he lose anyone else? " What do you mean?" " My parents were murdered a few years ago, I had to go for therapy after witnessing their death. It was a gruesome night but that's a story for another day... But that experience shaped me into who I am today, I am a therapist today because of that night." He explained and I understand why he is so understanding, he went through a similar situation and I understand exactly how he feels because that night still hunts me. " I'm so sorry, that must have been so terrible." " Yes but it's fine." He said he is fine but his mood was down for a while and I thought of something to say that can lift his mood. " I am thinking of making this a habit, are you enjoying this or would you rather be in the cell?" He asked before I could think of something to say. " I love habits, I am having a good time with you. I don't mind seeing you twice a week." He smirked at me and my eyes zeroed on his hot lips and I couldn't help but remember how it felt on my lips. " I wonder what else they can do." I said lustfully. " What's that?" I didn't realize that I said that out loud until he asked. " Nevermind, I was thinking of something else." He smiled and I think he knew I was referring to his lips. " I see... You achieved what you wanted with that kiss." He said out of the blue and he just confirmed that he knew exactly what I was lusting over. " What was that?" " I thought about you all day and night, and you got me wanting more." He looked at me intensely and I just wish I could straddle him. " I want you." " Well I am glad to hear that because you have been on my mind from the first day I saw you." Now I know his wife is the reason he has been turning down all my advances, I know he wants a rebound but I don't care, I am not in love with him, I just want a good fuck. " Ten more minutes, inmates." They announced but I am enjoying this moment and I don't want to go. I can't believe I have been sitting here for the last five to six hours and I still don't want to go... Therapy is fun but this is even better, there is no restriction and he is more free to talk here than when I do most of the talking. " Do you have a boyfriend?" " No, I am single." I got up and gave him a hug because it's already time to go. " Well not anymore, you are mine." The way he claimed me was hot as fuck. " Good." I turned around and walked away. " I love you Nicole." He said and I stopped in my tracks. I didn't expect him to say that, I just wanted to have a good time with him while I am in here but maybe I have taken things too far, I am too fucked up in the head to love anyone, I am locked up and he is free, it can't work. " I have a baby." I lied as I turned around briefly and I left before he could say anything else. Honestly I don't know why I lied, I got nervous and I didn't know what to say or maybe I lied just to drive him away before things got too intense between us... It was a perfect day and I ruined it for him but this is for his own good besides, if I didn't make the decision I made six years ago, I will probably have a six year old child and it wouldn't have been a lie. This is the most fun I have had since I got here eight months ago, now I know why Ruth is always so hyped about visiting day. It's actually very fun to hangout and talk to other people aside from the regular inmates. The smile on my face vanished the moment I saw Ruth crying in our cell, this is so strange, she's always so happy whenever she returns, did someone die? " What's wrong?" " He didn't come?" " Your fiance?" I asked because I remembered that she mentioned him this morning. " Yes, this is the second time in a row. I think he is tired of me." " Or he is busy and he will come tomorrow." Saturdays and Sundays are visiting days and there is a chance he couldn't make it today and he will come tomorrow. " Yeah?" " Yes, now clean your pretty little face and let's go for lunch." I smiled. She's always very happy and this is not a good look on her, besides this is just the second week, so I don't think there is any cause for alarm. " Okay but not before you tell me about your guest." I sat beside her and smiled. " It was my hot doctor." " Really, why?" She got up and started making herself look presentable. " I don't know, I guess he just wanted me to experience what it feels like to have a visitor." I lied and I don't even know why, I just don't like telling my business to everyone. " Oh I see, that's very thoughtful of him. Did you have fun?" " Yes I did." We left the cell and made our way to the dinning hall for lunch, I am actually very hungry. " That's good, I am glad." We joined the queue for lunch, the food is disgusting as always but I am too hungry to be picky. Ruth and I were very close to getting our food before someone suddenly pushed me out of the line and I landed on my butt. I looked back at the queue and saw Shelly standing in my spot smiling down at me... I am so mad right now, if I lay my hands on a pistol, I will drop her dead. " What the fuck is wrong with you." I pulled her out of the queue and gave her two resounding dirty slaps that made her stagger back. " You slapped me?" She came at me again but I cleared her legs and she fell on her flat butt. " You will learn today." I pushed her back before she could get up and I mounted on her. " Argh." She screamed as I slapped her across the face multiple times till I could see the map of my hand on her face. People gathered around, watching us and chanting 'fight' but I don't care, I just need to make sure this bitch stays away from me. " Kingston 42, stop that right now or you will end up in solitary confinement." The warden said and I immediately stopped. I have been in confinement one too many times and I don't want to end up there today because of this bitch... I raised both my hands to show the warden that I am not doing anything as I slowly tried to get off Shelly. But that was my mishap because in my brief moment of distraction, Shelly outsmarted me... I felt a sharp pain in my abdomen and by the time I looked down, she was holding a bloody knife. " Arghhh." I screamed as she removed the knife from one spot and punctured another. I held her hand and stopped her from trying to stab me again but she pushed me away but I managed to stand and as I looked at the amount of blood I had lost I got dizzy, everyone was blurry but I saw Shelly being held by the warden. " Hel... Help, help me." I managed to say before I fell to the ground. My tongue feels dry, and I can hardly feel anything... My body feels so cold like I am freezing. I tried to get up, I need to save myself but I can't feel my legs. " I... I do ..n't want to dieee." I managed to get the words out but my eyes fluttered close and everything went black...ASHER'S POV I haven't been myself since I visited Nicole at the prison on Saturday, I mean I enjoyed seeing her out my office setting and I enjoyed the freedom of speech but I feel so guilty. My wife just died and I went ahead to visit another lady and I even made her my girlfriend, it was like I was possessed or something, I definitely wasn't thinking.It's not like I regret asking her to be my girlfriend but I feel bad for doing so, I mean I know my wife is dead and she's not coming back but it feels like I am cheating on her and I feel so terrible about it... Even as I am getting dressed to go to work, I am fucking excited because I will see Nicole soon but it feels wrong, I shouldn't be this excited when I obviously just lost my wife. "I'm a horrible person."I paced around my room after dressing up. "I need to talk to Aaron." I really need his advice but that will have to be after work... Right now, I need to get to the prison as soon as possible, my session with Nicole is in tw
NICOLE'S POV My whole body feels sore and frail, I tried to open my eyes but the room is too bright and the light is blinding. "Fuck." I tried to speak but I couldn't even hear myself speaking... My back hurts like hell, it's feels like I have been laying on my back for months. I tried to roll over to the side but I feel kind of trapped and the bed feels too narrow. "Am I on, am I on my bonk bed?" I asked myself as I tried to think of where I am. I forced my eyes open and everything is so white. "This is not my cell, where... Where am I?" I asked myself but I can't seem to figure it out."Nicole, Nicole... Are you okay?" I heard someone call my name but it sounds distant and faint. I struggled to keep my eyes open but when I did and look around the room, I saw him."My hot... My hot doctor." I tried to smile but my face hurts."Nicole, I am so glad you are okay." He smiled at me but he looks a little scruffy, he looks tired but happy... Why is he here, where am I?I wondered as I lo
NICOLE'S POV I was discharged two days ago and I haven't been able to see Asher since then, I mean seeing him anytime and everyday was the best part of being in the hospital... Something has been bothering me since he left last Thursday, he said something about putting his contact in my records but I am not really sure what he meant by that, we haven't been alone long enough to actually ask him but today is Thursday, which means I will get to see him again and we can finally talk without interruptions."Let's go Nicole." Ruth said before we left the cell for breakfast."Of course." Everytime we go to the dining hall for food, the memories of my attack flashes again and it feels like it's mocking me for not having my revenge yet.I will definitely have my revenge because I know deep down that I can't fully move past this without having my revenge. It's similar to what happened six years ago, even after killing five of the gang members, I still don't have peace and I know I won't until
NICOLE'S POV "Is that a joke?" He sat down beside me. "You know that's impossible right?"I know I shouldn't ask this of him but I don't have a choice, I really need to call my contact outside."I really need to make a call." "Which is okay by me but you have to use the prison phone and you know it. It's against the law and I can lose my job if they find out, in fact everything I do with you can make me lose my license if words get out." "I am sorry that I am putting you through all of this, I know it's against the law and asking you to do it anyways is me being selfish but I really need it. The prison phone is being recorded and it's not safe for me to make the call with it. I promise you, I will be very quick and no one will know." I assured him."This is wrong Nicole." He lamented but I can tell that he will give in eventually."I know and I am sorry but it's important." I said urgently as I saw that I have less than ten minutes to go."Fine, two minutes." He brought out his ph
NICOLE'S POV It's almost like Shelly knows that I have plans for her because she's has been avoiding me and even when I see her, she's never alone but I am not bothered because it might take a while but I will eventually isolate them one by one and teach them an everlasting lesson."You should get dressed." Ruth suddenly said and it's kind of surprising because I am in jail and I can't wear anything other than this fucking orange uniform."Is that a joke, what else can I possibly wear?""That's not what I mean, I mean you should try and look presentable. Fix your hair and use this white powder to brighten your face." She instructed and I am finding it difficult to understand why?"Why, what's the occasion?" I asked curiously, I mean I know that it's Saturday and she's getting ready for her family but why do I have to get dressed as well."Come Nicole, have you forgotten that today is Saturday. The hot doctor might come visiting." Well I will love that but he didn't say that he will c
NICOLE'S POV I woke up very early as usual, hoping that I will catch Shelly or her minions in the bathroom but unfortunately for me, they were stepping out just as I was going in. It's been such an hassle to catch her alone but it fine, I will be patient.Who knows, I might even be lucky today, I mean today is Sunday and it's still visiting day and according to my knowledge, Shelly had her guest yesterday. Which means she will be in the cell today and I might just have her alone."You should get ready, Peter might come today." I pointed out when I noticed that she has not made any attempt to actually look good like she likes to."I don't think so, he hasn't been here in weeks, so what makes today different." Well today is different because I asked Mike to look for him and bring him here and I am positive that he will come but if he doesn't, that means something is horribly wrong."Just have faith." I don't want to give her all the details or raise her hope because I might be wrong a
NICOLE'S POV When I was leaving the visiting room, I didn't see Ruth anywhere which means she already left, I guess I was too carried away with my conversation with Asher and I didn't notice her leave.As soon as I stepped out of the visiting arena, I saw Teresa. She's a guard here and she carries out all my requests... When you have money like I do, you can actually make anyone work in your favor. To be honest, prison life is not that bad when money is involved, I actually have everything I want apart from freedom of course but now I need a phone."Teresa, I have been looking for you." I whispered to her."What do you want Nicole? You know I can't be seen hanging around with you." That's true, I don't want to get her in trouble because if that happens, I will have to look for another guard to do all my biddings and I am very comfortable working with Teresa."I know, I will be quick. I need a burner phone." I whispered."How soon?" That's why I like her, she's always down for busines
ASHER'S POV Today is an unusually free day for me, it happens once in a blue moon and all I want to do is to relax at home... I just want to rest and maybe even sleep. Although I doubt that I will get any sleep today, it hasn't been so easy staying at home and that's why I work a lot just to distract myself, I mean every part of this house reminds me of my late wife and it's fucking torture.But when I am at work, I hardly remember her. Whenever I am at home, I feel guilty for falling in love with Nicole when my wife only just died but I can't help myself and everything is so fucking confusing. I don't know how to feel, when I am happy, I feel guilty for being happy, everything is just messed up."Shit, I am doing it again." I promise myself that I will try to enjoy my break and not think about Sarah but here I am doing it again. "Damn."I sat in the living room and I started looking for a movie to watch but before I could even decide, someone stepped into the house. "Aaron, when are
NICOLE'S POV Yesterday was so perfect, knowing the gender of my two babies and getting engaged all in one night is just so amazing, he made me really happy which is why I am sitting here with him in the visiting area of the prison to see Logan... I mean I already had a plan to come here and see Logan, I just didn't think it will be this early.I am nervous and honestly, I feel uncomfortable because this moment reminds me of my time in prison and how Asher used to visit me. I am going to be a part of his family soon and the most appropriate thing is to make peace with Logan because I have made peace with what happened to me six years ago and I have forgiven Logan, so I think it's only fair for me to let him know."Are you sure you really want to be here because I can understand if you need to go, I don't want you to be uncomfortable by seeing him again." Asher pointed out but I am fine."I want to be here, I am no longer mad at him and I want him to know, besides we are going to be fa
NICOLE'S POV When the went on and on about my gender reveal party, this was definitely not what I pictured in mind. The set up is elegant and it looks nothing like a gender reveal, it's more like a dinner party or something and they invited a lot of people, I thought it was just going to be a few friends but it's fine. "Wow ladies, this was unexpected but mind blowing, I love it." I said excitedly."Well we were hoping to blow your mind." Shelly said just as I noticed Asher walking towards me. He is wearing the same color of suit as I am and he looks so handsome and happy but all I can think about is when I will be able to get him out of this party and have him to myself, he is looking so yummy and I can't resist."Hi baby." I said as he got close and I gave him a hug and then a kiss."Wow, you look... You look so beautiful." He complimented as I smiled at him. "I can't wait to get you out of that dress." He whispered the last part in my ears and I blushed, I guess we are both thinki
NICOLE'S POV Shelly and Ruth has been here since we went shopping two days ago and it's obvious that they are going to the party from here. It's not like I mind having them around, it's just that they have all been acting weird. They are all over the place, making plans like it's my wedding and not gender reveal, so I am honestly tired of everything and all I want right now is for it to be time for the party, so that everything can return back to normal.As soon as I returned to my room after having breakfast with them, I heard my phone ringing and I wondered how long it has been ringing for since I didn't take my phone with me. I went to my bedstand to get my phone and see the caller ID and I smiled when I noticed that it's Asher."Hi baby, how are you doing?" I haven't seen him for a few days now but I am seeing him tonight and I am really happy about it, that's what I am actually looking forward to tonight. The girls are already making everything weird, so at this point, I just wa
ASHER'S POV I can't believe that it's actually happening, tomorrow is Friday and I am actually going to propose to Nicole. I mean I am mentally ready but now that it has become so close, it's now a reality and it feels like a dream. I remember when I met her in prison, I had just lost my wife and I was a mess. I even felt so horrible for admiring her when I just lost my wife but I thought it was infatuation and the relationship wouldn't last especially because she was in prison and I am her therapist but look at us now. She's pregnant for me and I am about to take things to the next level and it's exciting and weird at the same time but it's the right time, so I am doing it. "Are you ready?" I was carried away in my thoughts as I stood in front of the mirror and I completely forgot that I came in to dress up so that Aaron and I can go ring shopping."Yeah, I am ready." I said as I brushed my hair, grabbed my phone and keys before leaving my room.Betty called earlier today to inform
NICOLE'S POV I decided to take a break from work today to have a rest, I have been doing this often lately ever since my stomach became big, I don't want to overwork myself or stress the baby, so I am staying home today. I reluctantly got out of bed and I showered quickly before looking for something simple to wear but before I could decide on what to wear, Shelly and Ruth stepped into my room."I didn't know that you guys were here?" I pointed out. I mean I know that they have been coming here often lately because of the gender reveal party that they are planning with Betty but I didn't know that they are here this morning."Yeah, we just came in." Ruth pointed out while smiling and I can tell that there is more to this visit. "We are going out for shopping." She pointed out but that's not my plan for today, I stayed home to rest and not to go for shopping, besides I have everything I need here."No ladies, I am home to rest and not to go out." I pointed out as I picked an oversized
ASHER'S POV It's the weekend and Aaron and I are anxiously waiting in visiting area of the prison as usual to see Logan. I am worried about which bruise he will show up with or how battered he will look today when he shows up. It's obvious that something is happening in there, someone is bullying him or maybe people are ganging up against him and he just doesn't want to tell us and I know it but I guess he has his reasons, there is obviously nothing much I can do to help him from out here."You know all the injuries and bruises that Logan has been showing up with was inflicted on him by someone or a group of people right? It wasn't an accident in the bathroom or cell like he usually said, we both know that Logan is not clumsy." Aaron pointed out and I am surprised that he is thinking about it as well... I guess we have both had it in mind for a long time but we didn't really want to discuss it because how exactly are we going to help him."I know Aaron, someone or people are hurting
ASHER'S POV I have never been more excited than right now in the hospital room with Nicole, the doctor is watching the monitor and I can see a weird strange movement on the monitor but I can't make out the image but knowing that the steady heartbeat we are hearing and the image on the monitor belongs to my daughter or son is the most fulfilling thing ever and it's so fucking exciting. I looked at Nicole and she is spotting a huge smile that is similar to mine, I am so excited."Oh wow, this is interesting." The doctor said and I wonder what she saw."What's wrong doctor?" I asked curiously."Nothing, it's actually good news. You are having..." "No doctor, don't tell us. Just print out the ultrasound and put it in an envelope, we don't want to know anything about the baby as long as the baby is okay." I interrupted her when I realized that she was about to tell us the gender and ruin the surprise, besides I already promised Betty and I don't want to disappoint her although I am fucki
ASHER'S POV I decided to skip work today since I am going to the hospital later today with Nicole and since I will be home most of the day, I asked Aaron to come over. He works from home, so he is always at home except he decides to go out and have fun. "It's a good thing you asked me over because I just rounded up with all my pending work and I am basically free from now till next week but why are you home though?" He asked as soon as I returned to the living room with a bottle of whiskey and glass for us."Nicole and I are going to the hospital later today for her routine check ups and if I go to work, I won't be back on time to follow her to the hospital and I already promised that I will be there." I can't afford to disappoint her. I mean I have followed her to the hospital once for check up but she mostly goes alone or with Betty, not because I don't want to go but because of work."Oh I see, that's good. Maybe you guys can finally find out the gender of the baby." He pointed o
NICOLE'S POV I still don't regret that I made Logan pay for what he did to me, I just regret the way I went about it and the way it made Asher feel. I mean me of all people know exactly how prison life is, I was there for like nine months and it almost ruined my life, I even almost lost my life. I did some really shitty things to stay alive, it was really unfair for me to have said three whole years was not enough when there is a possibility that he might not even be alive by then or he might be a totally different Logan when he is out... I mean the only thing that kept me going for months was the fact that I had Logan, seeing him every Thursday and Saturday made a huge difference but all he has is on Saturday and I know it's not enough because seeing Asher twice back then wasn't enough either."You like this?" He asked as he played a movie but God knows that I wasn't paying attention, I don't even know the title or what it's about. I just really feel bad for what I put him through,
