CHRIS' POV:-Finally the day was here. I had waited so much for that day. I was not allowed to talk to Cassie. My sister was my greatest enemy in that time period. She did not even let me take her for dates or shopping. I just wanted my time with my wife. Of course, she was my wife. But according to my mother, I could not see her until the wedding would be done properly. I really wanted to protest but my mother shushed me with a glare. I could not do anything but to bite my tongue. But of course, no one could ever keep her away from me. It was near to impossible.A day before our wedding, I called Mr Wolf.

I sighed in relief when I remembered that I was in the room of a beautiful rented house. I was on my honeymoon. Finally, we were together. And I knew he would not let anyone do us apart. I was still waiting for him to make a move on me. He did not touch me. He said he wanted everything to be perfect. And he also told me that he wanted me to feel every moment of it. He wanted the memory of our first time patched forever in our chests. The idea was great. So I did not protest. I also wanted my time with him in bed to be memorable forever.I looked at him with a warm feeling inside my chest. His lips were slightly apart from each other. I grinned as a mischievous plan made its way to my mind. I sat up on his stomach and leaned in. I captured his lower lip between my lips and sucked it hard. He growled

I could not help but think about the good news we would soon have.I looked at Chris. He was sleeping peacefully with me. He was lying on his stomach and one of his arms was on my stomach. I snuggled closer to him and pecked his cheek. He smiled but did not open his eyes. I shook him a bit. He frowned but did not wake up. I rolled my eyes and crawled out of the bed.I stepped into the bathroom and did my morning business. I then turned on the shower and hopped into the soothing hot water. I took my time and

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.

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

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

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.

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.
