SOPHIA CASTILLO

"Are you listening to me?" I snapped out of my thoughts when I heard Annabella's voice.

We were currently at a restaurant close to our hostel getting food to eat.

"I'm sorry. What did you say?" I asked her.

"I see you barely listened," she sighed.

"Is it about your husband? Have you both not settled yet?" She asked me and I sighed.

I hope we'll settle soon. He said he'd call me but I ended up not hearing from him throughout yesterday and today I've been expecting to hear from him but I haven't.

I texted him last night before I slept but got no reply from him. I would have excused his actions if we were on good terms and all of this is happening but now that it's happening, all I can say is that he is intentionally ignoring me.

Adrian doesn't go a day without texting me and it wouldn't cost him a second to check my messages.

I get he is disappointed that I lied to him but now he was taking things too far and all I wanted to do was cry. I just hate myself for crying too

    SOPHIA CASTILLO POVI ran to hug Adrian the minute I saw him come out of his private jet. I have missed him so much that when he told me that he was coming, I decided to meet him at the airport myself.I wrapped my arms and wounded him while he embraced me, pulling me impossibly closer to him."I've missed you," I told him while staring into his eyes.Two weeks felt like two years without him and I was grateful I was able to survive that distance."I've missed you too baby girl," he said, placing kisses all over my face and I guess giggled."I doubt you missed me enough," I teased."Really? Do you think that I do not miss you enough? Would you prefer I show it to you?" He asked, whispering in my ears and I felt a jolt of electricity run down my spine."Why don't you show me instead," I winked at him though I was terrible at it and he flickered my forehead."Come, let's go," he said, intertwining his fingers with mine and taking me towards the car with him."Have you eaten?"

    ADRIAN CASTILLO POVI thrust one last time inside of Sophia and came before pulling out and rolling to the other side of the bed, panting hard and fast."That was amazing," I said while trying to catch my breath."Yeah. Oh my goodness!" She gasped."What is it?" I was concerned."You came inside of me," she said to me and I ran my finger through my hair. I adjusted on the bed and pulled her closer to me."I'm sorry and I'm not sorry," I said to her."You promised not to," she reminded me.I did promise her that I'd wait for her till she's ready to have a baby because she said she wasn't ready to be a mother now and she has college too."That is why I'm sorry. I couldn't stop myself," I told her. She suddenly went quiet making me bother. "What happened, baby? Are you mad at me," I asked her worried."I'm not. Can I be? I doubt. I'm not angry, it's nothing," she said, pulling the duvet to cover. I pulled it down."You say it's nothing but you won't say anything and what're the issues.

    SOPHIA CASTILLO POVIt was past eight the night and Adrian was yet back. I couldn't eat because I was waiting for him. I might be angry with him but that doesn't mean my love for him has changed.I was tempted to call his phone but refrained from doing so because I didn't want him to think I have forgiven him for his actions. I tapped my feet on the floor while I sat on the bed, waiting for him to come.The door opened and I lifted my head to see Adrian coming in."Where were you?" I asked, sounding concerned when I didn't plan to sound so."I went to the office," he said and I scoffed."I thought today was supposed to be for us and why did you go to the office without telling me?" I asked."I was going to tell you but you didn't want me to talk to you," he replied and I recalled the scene in the dressing room.I didn't give him the chance to speak."Whatever," I said rolling my eyes."Are you good now?" He asked and I scoffed."You wish. Until I find out that I'm not pregnant, I'm n

    SOPHIA CASTILLO "Omg!" I heard Annabella's gasping. I lifted my head to see that she was staring at me and then at her phone and back at me and her phone again and I wondered the reason for her actions."I must be seeing wrong or not," she slapped her cheek lightly as if trying to wake herself up."What is it?" I asked her."Sophia Castillo?" She called my full name and I stared at her with a questioning look on my face wondering why she had called me by my name and my surname."This isn't wrong. I am so dumb!" She hit her head."What's wrong?" I asked getting up from bed to see what it is that she was talking about."How could you Sophia? I know you are married but why didn't you tell me that you are married to Adrian Castillo!" She said and my heart skipped that minute.I quickly rushed to see what was on her phone and my eyes widened slightly.On the headline was boldly written; Adrian Castillo with his wife attending the opening event of Marcus Stravinsky wine company.An image

I made lunch before coming but Adrian doesn't know that I was coming I did ask to confirm from him if he'd be at his office in the afternoon and he assured me that he would."Hello, please where is the direction to Adrian..." I cleared my throat, rephrasing my sentence."I want to see Mr. Adrian Castillo, where is his office located?" "Do you have an appointment with him?" She asked me, staring at me from head to toe."No," I told her.She stared at me as if trying to see something and it made me a little nervous. "Wait a minute," she said, bringing out her phone to look at something, and the next minute she gasped."I'm so sorry ma. I didn't recognize you.

"What is going on in my queen's mind? Do you want to talk about it?" He asked me, tucking a strand of hair behind my ear."Nothing is happening with me but I just want to ask or rather plead to you on behalf of someone," I informed him and the skin between his brows creased."Plead on behalf of someone?

He asked.Earlier when he was speaking to his secretary, I realized that I could see the lady who was pleading for another chance from his office due to the transparency of the glass.I pulled him with me.

Very nice of you," I said while playing candy crush on my phone."How could you? You called me by my name three times and then you won't call to apologize for that," I muttered.I doubted if I was angry because he had not given in to my request. After all, I was angrier at the fact he called me by my name and the way he spoke to me."I won't speak to you. I won't. Just...argh!" I groaned when I couldn't pass the level of candy crush."See what you have caused Adrian. Just look at what you have done," I complained bitterly before tossing my phone on the bed.I heard my phone make a buzzing sou

"Why does Jessica have so many of my pictures and is she truly aware of Sophia's whereabouts?"I wanted to speak to something about this but I do not trust anyone after all Sophia's life is at stake here. I needed to be logical with anything that I wanted to do for her safety.I decided to call Jessica and ask where she was. After two rings, she answered the call."Hey," I said as soon as the call went through."Hi." She replied. I suddenly do not know what to say anymore but I couldn't be speechless for long and so I let the words that were in my mouth roll out my tongue without thinking about it."Are you at home?" I asked."Yes. I am. Is there a problem?" She asked."No. Not at all. It's just I haven't seen you today. Did you go somewhere or you have been at home all day?"

Have you been enjoying the company of Carlos?" She asked.I glared at her. "Tell this stupid pig to stop molesting me and touching me inappropriately, at least you are paying him so he should use his senses!" I spat "Why would I? I paid him to kidnap you and everything he wants to do to you then he can. Why did you think that your complaining to me would make me do anything?" She clicked her tongue."I did not come here for that. I came here for another reason," she replied."At least have some shame and also I am pregnant and a married woman. Try to consider that it could be you too," I retorted.He placed her hand on the arms of the chair that I was tied to. "At least they let you pee, don't they? Do not let me give

    ADRIAN CASTILLOIf someone told me that I would find myself in this situation three weeks ago, I would have denied. And if someone had told me that my wife would be kidnapped on her birthday then I would have protected her and made sure that she was safe and sound and by all time by her side.Three weeks since I last saw Sophia. Three weeks since last spoke to one another. Three weeks since k last saw her beautiful face. Three weeks since I wrapped my arm around her and three weeks of pain and anger.Whenever I thought we were almost close and I was going to get her, it doesn't happen. It hurts me so much that no matter how hard I try I just cannot sit down and not cry.It was the same story from every source. Was she dead? Why was she kidnapped?

She asked her the first time the woman revealed her identity to her why she took her but instead the woman asked them to tape her mouth and cover her eyes."What do you want from me? It's almost two weeks. Why don't you..." Sophia trailed when she felt her stomach ache.They've barely been feeding her and not only that, Carlos has been trying to molest her too. He hits her if she spits on him for touching her boobs and once he threatened to kick her belly until she loses weight baby."I want you out of the way." The lady replied."Your voice sounds familiar, why don't you just reveal your face so that I know you, and have I ever offended you before?" Sophia asked."You have offended me in so many ways, Sophia. A lot more ways than you have realized and I do not have any intention to return you,"

    "Ma'am when will you reveal yourself to Sophia?" Carlos asked the woman who had hired him to kidnap her.He was yet to see her face properly as each time she approached them, it was in a dim room and she always has glasses on and a hat too."I would love to reveal myself but when I eventually do, it is to kill her. I do not plan to return her back to her husband. I want her out of the way for me to have him," she replied."Why not kill her already? Why keep her if you have no intention to contact her husband to tell him you have her?" Carlos boss asked.She let out a small laugh. "To punish her and also punish him a little.""Can you explain better?" Carlos boss Anderson asked."I am not supposed to tell you what I plan to do as I am the one paying you and not the other way round but I will tell you," she replied and folded her legs."She stole my man.

    SOPHIA CASTILLOI opened my eyes to see myself on a dark room with barely any light in it. My body aches and when I made an attempt to move, I realize that I couldn't as I was tied to a chair.Where was I? How did I come here?I thought to myself before I recalled how the power went out at the hall I was celebrating my birthday and how someone had grabbed me from behind.I groaned lightly. "Hello!" I called out."Hello!" I called out."Anybody here?" I said out loud.The door open and a massive ray of light entered the room but soon it was dark again when the man closed the door. "You better keep it down or I'm gonna hit you," he warned, coming closer to me."Who are you and what do you want from me?" I asked.I have not offended anyone so I do not understand why I was kidnapped. What was their intention or perhaps, did they get the wrong person? I thought to myself."I am the one that brought you here on someone's order. You will see that peers on soon," he replied. "Are you sure i
