I woke up in the morning, bright and early. I was thankful to God that I didn't have any nightmare. Chris was right. With that I remembered my encounter with Chris. I love the feeling. I shake my head and looked at the clock, it was 7am. "Seriously, I woke up this early. I used to wake up this early when I had my job. I have to find a new job." I was thinking when someone knocked on the door.
Cassie: Come in.
Iris: Thank God you are up. Now move your butt and get ready. Vacations are over darling. Get your butt back to work.
Cassie: Wait what? Work???
I was crazily looking everywhere. I searched her whole apartment twice, but nothing. I went back to her room to see what have I missed? And yes, I have missed one place to look, her closet. I opened the closet door and found her on the ground, sleeping. I sighed in relief, knowing that she's fine. I quickly dialled Iris. I knew my mother and Iris must be very worried by now.Iris: "Tell me you found her and she's okay!"Chris: "Yes. She is sleeping in her closet. I think she was crying and dosed off."Iris: "Oh! Thank God she's fine."Chris: "Tell mother and f
CHRIS's POV:-Time passed, everything started to get normal. Cassie was getting strong and confident again. We decided to keep our relationship to ourselves for a while until we figure everything out. My life was changing and I was happy after a very long time. After Emma, I wasn't looking for any relationship or wife in my future. But when I met Cassie it all changed. It was our routine, I drop her for work then pick her up every evening and we go to her apartment to have a little time together. Scott and Iris knew about it. Iris wouldn't shut up so we decided to tell her everything about our relationship. Besides, she always covered for us in front of our parents. We were on our way to Cassie's apartment. She was humming "My Love of Westlife." I love the sound of her humming that song. I find it really cute. I parked the car and turned
Chris: Why not! Place, do tell.Old man: My dear chatty wife. What's going on?Mallory: Christopher, meet my husband Ian Stevenson. And Ian this is chr…Ian: Christopher Hunt. The one and only.Mallory: you know him?Ian: Of course I know him.Chris: I'm sorry, but how?Ian: I've worked for your father.
After talking with Mallory and Ian, I went to different shops to buy flowers, sandwiches, cupcakes, cookies and lanterns. I wanted to make our first date magical for her. I wanted her to feel it, I wouldn't use my words, but my actions would tell her how much I love her. After all the arrangements, I went back to my home, took a quick shower, changed in casual jeans and t shirt then I just waited for her to be back home.CASSIE'S POV:-Me and my dad spent the whole day together. We went shopping, then we watched his favorite action movie, then we had lunch. It was evening, we are in a cafe, enjoying coffee and cookies. I almost forgot everything that had happened this morning. I was still sad but my father brought smile at my f
IRIS' POV:-Chris and Cassie left for their very first date. I was really happy for them. Finally they both are together. That's all matter for me, happinesses of my brother and my best friend. I turned around and found my mom glaring at me. I smiled and asked her.Iris: What?Stella: You knew about it all, didn't you?Iris: I don't know what you're talking about?Stella: Iris, I'm asking you something.
Liam: Do you love her?Chris: Yes dad, i do. It took me long to realize but I love her and I can't live without her.Liam: And what about Cassie?Chris: She do too.Liam: If you both feel the same way about each other, then I'm with you.Chris: Thank you dad for understanding.Liam: Don't thank me, I'm just doing what I have to. Now tell me, I will take care of your mother and she will be fine, but what about Mr Wolf?Chris: Honestly dad, I don't know.
Chris: What do you mean?Cassie: I told him everything.
I pinned her on the bed, holding her hands above her head. I kissed her and she kissed me back. I licked her lips and she immediately parted her lips for me. I slipped my tongue in her mouth and she moaned loudly. I broke the kiss and looked at her. I didn't notice that she was wearing a huge size shirt. My breath hitched when I saw her creamy bare thighs. I pulled my shirt off and she blushed seeing my bare chest. I leaned in and started trailing wet kisses. My hands made their way in her shirt and she arched her back. I cupped her mounds and she moaned softly, I massaged them softly and took her lower lip between my teeth, nibbling lightly. She was trying so hard not to moan out loud but she couldn't con
CASSIE'S POV:-THREE YEARS LATER:-Iris and I exited the meeting room and went straight to the office we both used. We both used one room as our office. And everyone was su
CASSIE'S POV:-My mother stopped the car in front of the same building I had spent a year in. It was the worst nightmare of my life. She hopped out of the car and grabbed my hair. She pulled my hair and I stepped out of the car. Dragging me by my hair, she took me into the same bedroom where Hendrick had abused me for months.Cassie: Stop it. Why are you doing this? I did not do anything. Why do you hate me this much? You are my mother. You have already done enough to destroy my life. What else do you want?I yelled at her as she pushed me on a chair. Her gun was still pointed at my head, that was why I did not move. She pulled the police mark band and tied my hands and legs with the chair. She then backed away and started laughing hysterically.Christy: Me, your mother. How funny is this? You were adopted. Your mothe
CHRIS' POV:-Christy: Another step towards me or if anyone tried to play smart with me, I will blow her head off. Hands in the air everyone.She said and everyone did as she had told. Cassie was crying and looking at me with sad eyes. It looked like everything was finished. I did not think a mother could become a monster. Cassie's mother dragged her out of the courtroom. Even the police were not able to do anything. I was as shocked as everyone else was. It was a pure nightmare.Hendrick: Why is anyone not doing anything? She will kill her.Hendrick yelled loudly and that was when everyone turned to look at him. It was like we all were awakened by him.Agent Wolf: We need to stop her.Her father said and Scott pulled his phone out of his pocket. My mother started crying and Iris went to her. She signalled me to go an
HENDRICK BLACK'S POV:-Hendrick: You asked for it.I said as I stood up again. As she saw me fuming in anger, Mrs Wolf let go of my mother's throat. She shivered as I glared at her angrily. I could bear anything upon myself. But never upon my mother. She was an innocent woman. Who had nothing to do with my sins and my crimes. Mrs Wolf thought that I was keeping my mouth shut because I was worried about my reputation. I never cared about my reputation. Otherwise I would never have forced myself upon a woman in the first place. As per my mother, she was innocent and Mrs Wolf had awakened the monster inside me.Hendrick: You asked for it. It was not me who paid Jo and his gang. Agent Wolf, your wife was the one who paid them to kill Cassandra. She was the one who paid them. I know what I did was horrible. But at least my mother is not a monster like
CHRIS' POV:-The honorable Judge stood up after signing the decision he had written. He left and detective Dean nodded his head at me. I did the same and stood up. I wrapped my arm around Cassie's waist. Detective Dean went to Hendrick while a police officer cuffed him. They walked towards us and Hendrick stopped in front of Cassie.Agent Wolf hopped up and quickly came towards us. While Cassie stood bravely. But my mind was elsewhere. My eyes were glued to Mrs Wolf who looked unusually pale as Hendrick stopped in front of Cassie. She stood between agent Wolf and Hendrick. I was not the only one who was observing Mrs Wolf. It was because of the information detective Dean had found.Before the court proceeded, Detective Dean called me and told me something about Mrs Wolf. According to him, Mrs Wolf was meeting with Hendrick and the gang who kidnapped Cassie. Detective Dean asked around and found
CASSIE'S POV:-I was sitting on a bench in the courtroom. I was very nervous. My palms were sweaty due to the nervousness. Chris went away to talk to detective Dean in private. My father was sitting beside me. Hendrick's parents entered the courtroom and his father smirked while looking at my face. It made me think if Hendrick was up to something new. My phone beeped with a text message. I pulled my phone out of my clutch and checked the message.Norie: I am not there with you. But don't think of yourself alone. I am with you. Don't give up, Cassandra. You can do it. You can fight him. Don't forget, you are on the right path. You are just trying to save whatever you have worked hard to build again. Don't let him destroy you again. Instead, destroy him this time. I will eagerly be waiting for your reply. And I know it will be good news. Good luck and stay strong.I smiled reading her text. She was rea
HENDRICK BLACK'S POV:-Mr Black: I would say that I am thankful that you are our son and we don't have any daughter.My father replied bitterly and I gritted my teeth hearing his answer. I glared at him. He was alive because of the bars of the cell between us. Otherwise I would have killed my good for nothing father that very day. He forced my mother away while she did not dare to look into my eyes again. She was guilty.Hendrick Black: That is why I did not ask you that question, Mr Black. You are a cold hearted man. Who cares about nothing but his money, his business and his reputation.I yelled angrily as they went away. I kicked the bars hard then went back to my bed. I sat on the bed with my head in my hands. I wanted to kill that heartless man. I knew he was forcing my mother to say all that to me. Because when she learned th
HENDRICK BLACK'S POV:-I was sitting on the only bed that was in the jail cell they kept me in. It was the first day of the case. I already knew that Jo and his gang had already testified that I was the one who had paid them to kidnap Cassandra. And I raped Cassandra as well. It was true. I had paid Jo millions to kidnap her. And I had raped her. I was the cold hearted man everyone known as the monster. Monster, that was what she used to call me. Only if she would understand how I felt about her. But who could have told her. She loved that son of a bitch Hunt.I saw my parents coming towards the cell. I stood up and waited for them. I knew why they were visiting me. They were worried if something happened to me, they did not have anyone else to take care of the business they cared about most. At least my father was here for that specific reason. As per my brother, he never wanted to be part of that business. He made
CASSIE'S POV:-I was sitting in the cafeteria of the office. I was not allowed to leave the office without Mr Hunt. He strictly ordered that ever if I had to go shopping with Iris, we would have to go with either Mr Hunt, Chris, Scott or my dad. They were all extra cautious about me and my safety. I did not mind at all. Even though Iris tried to talk me through to get me to go shopping alone but I declined. Because I knew it was better to sit home than asking for trouble with Mr Hunt.Scott came in and took his seat. I called the waiter and ordered lunch for both of us. I had informed Mr Hunt that I had some things to discuss with Scott about the case. He allowed me to go to the office cafeteria. And Iris promised me that she would take care of my work until I would come back. To be honest, they were all a great support for me to fight that battle. It was a great relief knowing that I was not alone into this fight.
