Willow's POV

The next morning...

My back is aching like nothing before... It feels like someone went in and shoved knives in my spin and twisted them for fun. My stomach hurts too, but I don't feel the need to puke... Not yet, at least. 

I sit up on the couch, seeing that Maddox has placed another blanket over top of me because I had been so cold last night I was visually shivering underneath that thin fabric that is barley even a blanket. 

Pushing the heavy, black duvet off of me, I roll out of bed and reach for the shirt that was left for me, pulling it quickly over top of my bare body. It smells of Maddox's cologne, cologne that I wished to smell each nigh but now wish I could loose my scent altogether just so I don't have to think of him. 

I go over to the door, walking on my tippy toes, scared a board will creak from underneath me and I'll give away my cover. I make it, though, but

    Willow's POV It's only been an hour free from Maddox's bedroom, and I'm already scared that he'll find me here again and drag me back there: the place where some of my biggest regrets and worst memories live. There's nothing I wish more right now than wanting to go back and time and tell myself to not give my innocence to him; to just say I wasn't ready, then when he least expected it, runaway as far as I possibly can. Currently I am curled up in this nice warm bed, skimming through Crave HBO, trying to find a good show to binge on. I've got nothing else to do but hide, so why not? After yesterday, I think I deserve a bit of a break. Not only did I put both heavy arm chairs against the door, I've also made sure the windows were shut tight and curtained. Luckily there's a nice little bathroom in here for me, so I don't have to make trips out to god-knows-where and be caught by a guard, or worse, the devil himself...

    Maddox's POVSoon, after a long walk of silence, we arrive back at our bedroom and I open the door, waving Willow on in."Hello King Maddox and Princess Willow," the doctor greets as soon as I shut the door behind me once we've entered. "Please," she steps out from the side of the bed, presenting an ultrasound machine, "you can lay down on here, Princess Willow, and I will begin the exam and see how that baby is doing, alright? I am Doctor Lilith by the way, but just call me Lilith."I look over to Willow, thinking she will obey right away. She comes to a complete halt when she is told to lay there on that bed, the bed she hates so much now. "O-okay," she murmurs, smoothing out the blankets with the palm of her hand before she lays down on my side of the bed. Immediatley, I can see the pain in her eyes and the way she stiffens up when the mattress forms around her body.I nod towards the doctor, signalling for her to begin, then tak

    Willow's POVOver the course of the night, sleeping in Maddox's oddly comfortable arms, I could feel him pick me up and take me to another room. I am sure it was back to his room, but I fell asleep in only a few moments after being carried down the hall.Now I'm here, laying in the uncomfortably comfortable mattress with my arm hanging above my head in a handcuff. Theres bandages around my wrist, just to protect me from having the metal engrave bloodied, rusty, lacerations in my wrists.I've woken up only a minute ago from a long nights rest, but I still feel so incredibly tired. So tired I feel like I was hit by a train twice then someone tried to kill me by ramming me into a brick wall a hundred times over.I grab hold of the chain thats linking the cuff to the bed and pull myself up into a sitting position, leaning my body weight into the pillows and breathing out heavily.The need to puke out my in

    Willow's POVA few hours later...All I have managed to do within the few, yet long hours Maddox has disappeared, is wriggle my shirt back over my head, in hopes to cover my now naked and bruised chest. With every move I make, the cuffs seem to get tighter and tigher, to the point I think I may just rip into four pieces and this will all be over.I don't know when he plans on coming back and letting me free, or if he plans on coming back and letting me free... For now I am stuck here, bound like a prisoner to the place I hate most.Finally, though, I manage to nestle my shirt over my breasts with the help of my now sore chin and cramped neck. Already I feel safer and less vulnerable to the world."Help me!" I finally allow myself to scream. I push my head forward, tears beginning to pool with the stress I can feel in my body and the sheer neck pain pulsating through me in waves.God,

    Maddox's POVToday.What. A. Day.Today was the absolute hardest day for me to get up, go to work and just leave Willow there, alone and stuck to that bed.I don’t know what’s come over me to be this horrible to her- to make her suffer the way I am. But that’s how it really is here in this castle, being the King’s wife. She has so little freedom because of who she is now.She’s better stuck to that bed, alone in that room, than she is roaming about in the castle where a guard, or some common folk who has broken in, could snatch her up. I can’t have that, she’s carrying my heirs already which makes her just that much more important. And even with what has to happen and what I must say and do to her, I still love her, and losing her her would break me into a million pieces.Fuck.

    Maddox's POV Two weeks later... To say the least... The past couple of days have been quite strange -sad, even. Willow is no longer putting up a fight, or going against what I say or anything- she just sits there on the floor of her hundred-blanket-made bed and stares ahead at the wall with sweet, sorrowful eyes. Hell, she only ever speaks to me when she wants to make a trip to the kitchen or if she has to let me know she is going to take a bath. At first, I had told her she needed to sleep in the bed with me, but she quite evidently did not obey that, so, she made way to the couch and tried to make a space there. I got fed up, though, because I knew that if I let her do that, our relationship would never be able to heal and I'd never get the chance to wrap my arms around her at night and kiss the back of her neck softly as she drifted off into a dream land. One day later, though, I came h

    Willow's POVOnly a few moments ago, I woke up, finding myself practically buried in Maddox's arms. For a moment, I found myself smiling because he was here, sleeping next to me finally. But the next moment, realization hit me like a fucking train, knowing what has all happened at that it's not two months ago... It's today... Another day in this horrible life of mine.Pulling away from his warm, longing hold that I wish I could sleep longer in, I decide it's not good to get attached, especially when I'm supposed to keep away from him and just wait out my soon-to-be shorted life.As I try to quietly try and pull his arms off of, they grip right back around my waist, placing his hands gently over my rounding belly. "How ya feelin?" he pulls his mouth to my ear, whispering the words gently.I inhale sharply, going completely still. "G-good," I tell him truthfully, but now I don't feel good: I feel like crying because I wish I cou

    Willow's POV "Sex? Is that really one of the only ways that I can relieve some of the stress straining on me in this pregnancy? There must be more than that, like a tea or something, or some massage therapy perhaps?" Dr. Liliana is looking back and forth between both Maddox and I now, nodding her head slightly to my suggestion, but she looks right back at Maddox, keeping her eyes on him. "Is it possible to have the maids make lavender and mint tea for Princess Willow here around the clock?" she asks him, a slight bit of sarcasm playing in her voice. For a doctor, she seems to be quite the comedian at times with some of my questions. If I don't want to have sex with Maddox, I shouldn't have to, even if it's for my own good. There must be plenty of other natural ways to get rid of this damn strain going on in my body while these little gremlins of mine keep growing. Maddox shrugs, leaning back into his chair, letting out a l

    Willow’s POV“Where are we going?” I finally ask after letting Maddox carry me like some broken object down the hall, not even the least bit bothered when a guard or a maid passes by, shock quite evident on their faces when they lay eyes on the whole situation going on here.He doesn’t answer my question, though, and just continues to hold me against him so I don’t try to flee.I let my head flop back in exhaustion from barely getting a damn word out of this man. “Just let me down for God's sake!” I push on his broad chest, and he finally lets me down on the ground. I straighten myself out, shaking my head in disbelief, and I begin walking away from him, back towards the bedroom. “I walk you know. And I can also stay very cozy in that bed alone, so I’m going back and you can do what

    Hey guys!This is the second last chapter of this book so I’ve decided that when it ends, you can vote whether or not there should be a second book in the reviews. Also, I’ve included some backstory to Maddox’s family with the new doctor that has been added recently and will be in the next book if there is one. Anyways, enjoy! Maddox’s POV “What?” Williamson shoots his head up after fluffing a pillow underneath the arm she’s receiving blood from. He sighs and storms over to me, snatching all four tests out of my hand. He may be half my height and weight, but this man is the last person I will ever argue against; he’s scarier than my father most times. I see the negative one first, giving me this strange, ‘are-you-stupid?’ Look before I motion for him to look further, then he sees the other three which are all positive.

    Willow’s POVI’m sitting on the edge of this infamous bathtub, impatiently waiting for the water to reach the desired point as I also anticipate the results of all four tests lined up on the counter.I’ve decided that if the tests are negative, I’m going down in this water with the help of whatever potion shit Maddox keeps here in this medicine cabinet and some of my old razors which I’ve already begun to pry apart.Before preparing for all this, I made sure that no one was in the other room by continuously calling out for help. I know someone would’ve responded- especially Maddox if he were here. Knowing him he would likely just tell me to do what I was told then threaten to inflict some sort of cruel punishment on me.Fuck. That scar in my bac

    WIllow’s POVA few weeks later…Misery. Absolute misery. Nothing but misery and pain down here in this cell with no one to speak to but the occasional rat that will scurry by me, searching for any bits of food I’ve left because I felt too sick to eat the disaster they give me on a plate.All my life is at this point is an endless loop-hole; everything goes spiraling downhill, then the next I’m too in love or happy to even see the consequences that there are to come with having emotion like that. Then, everything just repeats and repeats, but in a worse manner every single time.I should’ve known when Maddox brought the kids in after I found him sleeping next to me that morning that shit was going to hit the fan because Maddox had a plan; Maddox always has a plan and I should know that.

    Willow’s POVIn the morning….Last night was the best night I’ve had in weeks so far, even if Maddox slept in the same bed as me just so we could put on a show for the twins so that they won’t have any suspicions with our relationship. I guess they’re nearly three, but really, in reality, they’re very smart for their age.I’m predicting that Flynn is going to make a good ruler with his father with his ‘political’ views one day and Ella will end up at the top of her class. And maybe, just maybe, I can convince Maddox to let her go to one of prestigious universities in Nitraville or somewhere in the dark realm.Out of the two of them, I’m really not sure who will rule yet. It is too early to tell their real personalities, even if they become more and more prevalent everyday. Things and interests can change, especially at an ag

    Willow’s POVWhere the hell did he even go? It’s not like I was wrong or anything because seriously, if I’m their mother, should I not be able to see them? They’re so young, though, so will they even care that I’m gone? Maybe all I was to them was another caring person towards them who fed them with my own body for a year handmade sure they got everything they needed. But that’s all for Maddox now, isn’t it? I’m just here now to produce more children for him so I don’t get my neck tied up in a noose and be hung in front of the entire kingdom.I’m beginning to think that the noose may just be the best option now. All I want to do is rip these bandages off of my skin, open up my wound, and let myself die from infection and blood loss.The pain is too much to bare now. I’ve lost every go

    Maddox’s POVI slam the notebook shut between my tensed up fists and toss it to the ground, too angry to even look in Willow’s now hurt and tearing-up eyes.“You should know by now that after having been married for nearly four years now that I’m not fucking stupid when it comes to you trying to run away from me. This would’ve the what… FOURTH time you’ve tried to escape, and this time you even left your own two children behind with nothing but a stupid love letter to them that they can only read when they’re older!” I bellow, pacing up and down the room, wanting nothing more than to grab my belt that’s laying on the washroom floor and whip her back until she’s begging me for my forgiveness.“For christ sake, Willow, they’re only three years old!

The kids are going to be three soon.Oh no… I’m going to miss their birthday, aren’t I?Well, I hope my death doesn’t disturb that too much. The last thing I want if for my babies to be sad on their big third birthday.Fuck, maybe I should’ve postponed my exit to a little later.Well, whatever. What’s done is don

She said she was just cleaning up, and I don’t really mind if the bedroom is messy because God knows how much worse I’m about to make it.I knock again, calling out her name again. “Willow?” I holler through the door, wrapping my fist against the wooden door again, and place my ear against it.I hear nothing. Usually it’s very obvious she’s in here with all the cleaning and cooking she’s usually doing to keep herself busy.Why isn’t she answering? She always answers me.I keep my head placed against the door, just listening for even the slightest movement. Well, that’s until I hear a very distinct splash from outside.“That’s it,” I mutter, pulling th
