“Don’t move,” I screamed as I held the gun with my shaky hands and tried to aim it at Aeden.
“No Don’t!” He yelled as he tried to step closer.
“Get back!” I yelled again, trying to stay strong.
“Carla, just give me the gun and we can talk.” He said but I instantly shook my head in negative.
“Why did you do it, asshole! Why!” I yelled as I looked at him with my blurry vision.
“Give me the gun and we can talk,” he said trying to stay calm and stepping towards me, but that only made me tighten my hold on the gun and force a step forward.
“No!”
“Carla, give me that fucking gun. Now!” He roared like a beast and I flinched violently. Tears rained down my cheeks as I saw him enraged.
Why was he enraged? Wasn’t he the one who faked the fucking shootout? If I hadn’t received those anonymou

CarlaI looked at him. Waiting for some sort of reply, but I got nothing. Staring at nowhere in particular out the window, he had his hands shoved inside of his pocket and stayed calm.I kinda knew he wasn’t gonna reply but I don’t know why I was expecting something like this from him. Aeden is a selfish and cocky arse who can do anything and everything for his crazy need.“It started when I saw you dump Jack.” He said as I turned around to leave the room. His back was facing me.“You looked gorgeous that day. The fire I saw in your eyes, pulled me towards you. I had been wanting to acquire the mansions by the ocean, which were owned by Cliff. Cliff, on the other hand, wasn’t willing to sell them.” He said in a monotone as he didn’t turn around.“That’s when you came into the picture. He saw you dump your shitty ex. We all saw you and he knew that you were a woman who valu

Carla“Your chance in exchange for my freedom,” I repeated and his grip on my wrist tightened to a point where a shallow cry escaped my lips.“Aeden you are hurting me,” I winced out and but that didn’t help. He still kept glaring at me like he wanted to bury me for asking for my freedom.“What did you say?” His voice almost mocking but anyone could notice the raw anger behind them.“My freedom.” I gulped out looking at him. He was scary, there was no denying that but I had to stay strong. I can’t crumble like a paper and I most certainly will not let a man control me.“Aeden if you give me my freedom, I’ll give you what you want. Your chance to woo me. And by freedom all mean is to let me around freely in a place I know and you and your shitty men not hounding around me.” I finish. My voice came out shaky at the end.“How should I believe yo

CarlaHe slid one of his hands under my nightdress. As his fingers moved to touch my skin, it ignited all of the fire that I had subdued within me.That was it.Against my better judgment, I moved my tongue against his, moaning. He paused for a fraction of a second trying to pull back but I didn’t let him as I threaded my fingers through his hair pulling him closer and moving my lips against his and trying to return the kiss with the same fervor that he had kissed me a few seconds ago with.This was the first time I was kissing him back. And I didn’t mind that I broke my vow to myself. All I cared about was kissing him. For months I held myself back but not anymore. I finally kissed him back.My eyes rolled back as he began kissing me, swirling his tongue around mine. I tried dominating the kiss but he didn’t let me. Accepting my defeat as he dominated the kiss sliding his palm up to my swell and capturing it his

CarlaI stood frozen as tears that were bumming, dared to fall down.One dropSecondThirdThey just rolled down my cheeks mercilessly. I looked ugly. It was just another painful reminder of his psychotic obsession.“Carla,” he held me by my waist as I stumbled back, covering my mouth. I didn’t dare to look at him. It was chilly. I was naked and wet but I didn’t care. I just wanted to be alone.“Please leave me,” I said without looking up at him.“Carla,” he called out, grabbed my chin, and forcefully yanked my face up to look at him.“I want to be alone,” I whispered in a small voice. To my unknowing, he had already plastered my body against his and soothed me as I didn’t feel so cold.“Look at me,” he said sternly when I looked around everywhere but him. His voice left no room for argumentation.“You are b

She took the tiny pill and swallowed it down with the help of water. Aeden could be careless but she couldn’t have. She had been taking birth control pills when she learned she actually had sex with him when she was drunk.Her visions of that night were blurry but she knew what they did. The soreness between her legs was the evidence of it. She wanted to deny it. Oh god! How she wished it was all a part of a bad dream but only it wasn’t.She had stumbled her way to the bathroom, with a throbbing pain between her legs and her head. She only hoped it was her terrible nightmare and not something real. She still couldn’t fathom the thought of her being married to a criminal and she definitely didn’t want to be taken advantage of or raped by him.She pulled the robe over her body before staring in front, of the mirror. And just when she stared at her reflection, tears broke free. Her body was covered in bruises, handprints, and bluish-purple h

She pulled out the light blue sundress with puff sleeves and a deep square neckline. It had tiny flowers embedded all over it. All in all, the dress was super pretty.She didn’t have much of a choice. She knew he would threaten his way so she didn’t want to argue with him.Sliding the dress on, she brushed her hair down and left it by her sides. She applied little makeup and baby pink lipstick. She wasn’t sure where he was taking her, so she decided to keep her outfit, generalised.She took a small purse and filled it with some napkins, lipstick and antidepressants, which Eric had got her on her request. Aeden had confiscated her mobile phone a long time ago, so she didn’t have it. Somewhere or the other, she learnt how to live without technology. The same gadgets she was so addicted to and her life depended on.She slipped into nude two-inch block heels. She looked at herself in the mirror and sighed. She looked dead. From inside

Carla’s eyelids fluttered open when a gust of cold breeze hit her body, making her shiver slightly. She was welcomed by Aeden’s light subtle that was scattered across his face as he carried her into the house, with his eyes ahead.He held her firmly enough to make an unknown warmth seep through her body. One side of her face was pressed against the soft Lenin material of his shirt. His heartbeat was heard vividly and came out calm and loud.“Leave me,” she whispered and didn’t avert her gaze from him. He paused and he looked down at her a little surprised.“You are awake,” he said. Just a statement, no question.“I don’t think so,” he mildly gritted his teeth and increased his hold on her warm body.She sighed in defeat as she couldn’t keep her eyes open. Letting it go, she closed her eyes partially as Aeden carried her up to their or rather his room.She didn’t want to

“These property papers are fake.” She repeated and Aeden looked at her confused as he pulled the papers from her hand and looked at them with his brows snapped together in a thin line.“What are you saying,” he pursed his lips and glared at her.“Lemme showyou,” she said as she snatched the papers from his hands and took some other papers which were genuine and laid them side by side on the floor.“Feel the paper. There is a difference. This one on the right, which are the fakes, is much smoother.” She said and nudged him to feel the difference.“Extremely difficult but original papers can never be this smooth.” She said and he looked at her weirdly.“Also,” she took a pen which was down on the floor, “See this, the fonts. This ‘t’ here, it’s different and if you notice carefully, you will find the ‘n’ and ‘p’ also different

Not Mine Epilogue
Carla“So you don’t feel guilty?” The woman in front of me asked. Her hair was neatly tied up in a bun while she sat before me, with a small notebook and a pen in her hand.“Are you sure you are not saying this because you totally deny it?”I shook my head slightly and looked down at my lap.“You really don’t feel guilty about killing someone?” She asked me again and I forced my head up and looked into her eyes.“No.”After killing Cliff, I was little, well, too much in denial and Aeden forced me to take therapy with this lady before me. And also for my not so often nightmares, yet they still could shake me up and I couldn’t get anything done the next day. Honestly, I don’t like her. She is too much of a bitch for my liking. Since the time I have been attending the sessions, which were only two, she didn’t hesitate to show me her displeasure of me

AedenI tried pulling my hands out one last time but sighed in defeat when my attempt was hindered unsuccessful.The light that reached me through the blindfold, indicated that it was morning. My wrists were, well pretty much numb.I had called out for her but, I was just wasting my energy when I realized that the rooms were soundproofed.She got me good. Have to give her credits. I had never expected that she’d do something like this… it's just not her. Or maybe I just don’t know her so well. Actually, she was always afraid around me and was never open.I guess I am the one to be blamed for that. I regret it but right now, I need her to come up here and untie me. Staying in one fucking position the entire night is not a joke.A small sigh leaves my lips and I slump my wrists and shoulders. But the opening of the door has my ears perked up.A strong womanly fragrance hits my nostrils and I instantly

AedenSighing, I picked up my phone and my wallet before heading out the door. It was way past ten and it was highly uncommon for me to stay in my late mother’s office for so long.I didn’t usually visit this place because it ran smoothly unless someone decided to fuck it all up. An employee thought it was cool to randomly blurt out the ideas of the upcoming project to one of the rival company employees and I had to come down to fix his shit.I hadn’t estimated that it was going to be of so much trouble when I left home this morning but turns out, it was big. When it was past ten was beyond me.I wanted to go home and spend some time with Carla, but because of this one person, I had to be in and out of meeting all day long.I rushed out of the building to see my chauffeur by my car. He opens the door as I walked near it and he bowed down to show respect. I nodded, acknowledging his bow. It wasn’t long before

“We need to talk,” Carla burst her way into his study, without bothering about what he was doing.She stooped in her tracks, panting as she noticed two men who sat before him in their business suits, whose eyes were now focused on her. Her chest heaving as she clenched her fists by her sides and narrowed her eyes on Aeden, who was quite as startled as the men before him were.“Excuse me. Can we continue this sometime later?” He asked the two men, drawing their attention back to him from his wife.“Yes.”“Sure.”They replied simultaneously and walked out. Aeden pushed the chair back and stood up as the menexited and walked to the door and closed the door behind him.“What is it?” He asked softly as he made his way toward her and held her cheek from one side.“I-I can’t do this. No.” She

CarlaWas I doing the right thing?Too much thinking will make me regret my decisions.I take the pill bring it closer to my lips and hold the glass of water with my shaking hands. I didn’t want my child to have to grow when it can never be safe.I don’t think Aeden knows about this so it's better if he never finds out. It will be for the best. I don’t even know how he will react if he finds out. I just don’t want to hear the negative ones, if he didn’t like the idea of having children.Gulping, I place the pill at the seam of my lips. My heart was thudding rapidly against my chest. Closing my eyes I take a deep breath in.No. Don’t you will become a murderer!My consciousness mocked me and that itself was enough to push the chair back and spring up and throw the pill away.“Carla! What the hell!” I heard Aeden from behind and I turned to him he pulled th

“Why?”She fell backward, and let her eyes droop. Before she could land a harsh hit to the ground, strong arms wrapped around her waist and pulled her closer to a strong chest.She was hoisted up and carried out in bridal style. But as soon as the blood from her thigh dripped oh his arm he paused to look. When he noticed the dripping red liquid, anger burned through.With a low growl, he pressed her tightly and protectively against his body and marched out to his car, not caring about the way men moved in and out of the building.He carefully placed her on the passenger seat and moved to the other side. He noticed, Pearl, standing by the paramedics. She passed him a small smile and he returned it with a nod, pursing his lips.He sat in and stole one last glance at the woman resting on the passenger seat before driving off.The constant and loud tapping of foot was heard through the quiet hallway. Occasional huffing

“It wasn’t his mistake,” Carla breathed out.“Really?” Cliff scoffed.“Yes. Nobody has to pay for someone else’s deeds,” She said trying to inhale but the copper taste in her mouth and the pungent smell of blood didn’t allow her to.“You remember the time, you crashed into another car?” He quirked his brow up looking at her.“That was me. That was when it all began. That was my signal to being.”“It started with me finding my then long-lost and now dead brother, Steve. I didn’t have to do much. He was already a fool. A fool who was madly in love with you after one night. Wonder what magic you possess that, this idiot fell for you after one night in bed with you.”“I got what I needed from him. He told me all after I faked that I missed him all my life. I did miss my sibling, but not as much as I exaggerated. Then he told me everything I need

Caught up in work, she hadn’t realized when hours had passed and it now was seven in the evening.Her phone pinged up with a new notification but she ignored it like she had been doing for hours now. But when the constant sound of several notifications kept annoying her, she decide to put her phone on silent mode.As she took ahold of her phone, she noticed several messages from an unknown number. Unlocking the phone she read the messages, which were images, and a sudden dread kept in, looking at all the images that had been sent to her.They were several images of her. Taken the same way, in the starting she received a few stalking images of herself. Like the one in the hospital and Aeden’s penthouse. She had not given it much thought as she didn’t get any more pics after that and brushed it off thinking it was Aeden. Gulping, she swiped across her phone, looking at all the images of her.As she was scrolling through her the photos, her

Approximately one and a half months later.CarlaSinking down in my comfortable chair, I looked up from my laptop screen and focused my gaze outside the window admiring the beautiful view of the skyscrapers.But the moment was short-lived and I shrugged my shoulders and looked down on the keys of my computer.I was still mad at Aeden for abandoning me with some random strangers. I hadn’t heard or seen from either of the siblings or anyone them as a matter of fact since that day.Stupid stupid move!Who does that?He could have fucking spoken to me but he didn’t. I didn’t like it one bit. He didn’t even ask me if I wanted to go or stay. If he’d just asked me, I would have probably stayed back.I glanced at my wristwatch and packed up my stuff, shutting my computer off and putting it in my bag. I had resumed my work shortly after I found myself lying in the bed, alone and ab
