Willow's POV
I try to pull away again, placing my hands flat over his chest and pushing with all my might, but still his grip keeps firm around my neck.
"M-Maddox please..." I groan as his hand glides to the front of my neck, tightening his grip just so I can breath shallow, low breaths.
He chuckles at my attempt to escape again, pulling me up onto the bed this time so that I straddle him unwillingly. "Shhh, my love," his breath radiates the warm scent of whiskey against my face, "we can have a little fun while I do, alright? It will ease the pain and increase the flow of my through your delicious blood stream..."
I need to get away- get out of here and as far away as possible... I should've never told myself I would be safe here with Maddox. He loves me so much that he thinks killing me and these babies will make everything better for us!
All I need to do is just play along; make him think that I'm going
Maddox's POVThe next morning...She's breathing still... I watch her every breath each moment to make sure it doesn't stop and that chest keeps rising and falling as it should.Vampires- when they get drunk, it usually doesn't last all that long because we metabolise the alcohol so quickly, so when I had gotten back to reality last night, only then did I realize what had happened: drunk Maddox decided to feed on his weak, human wife.But to my luck; my somehow existent luck even in that time and place with what I had done, she managed to survive my desperate feeding on her, earning a fresh scar over the old one where I intentionally fed on her delcious blood. Not to worry, though, I got her back inside as soon as reality hit me and I knew what I had just done- that sober me was back in business even after those bottles of never-ending alcohol.Now Willow's laying here, in our bed with a
Willow's POV"Someone needs to get the portal set up ASAP!" I listen to Maddox growl into the phone, his voice low and threatening yet so incredibly panicked at the same time. "Willow's water has broken and she's two months early... We need to get back and have Doctor Lilithcheck her out. She- we had a bit of an accident last night," he looks at me and I flash him a glare despite my pain. He turns away from me this time and takes a few steps away, whispering to the portal keeper, "if we don't get back in time, I could lose all three of them, Gus. I know it takes a lot of work, but I swear to you I will have bonuses added to your account for this."A few more hard, worried looks are shot my way, followed by the quiet murmurs of "yes" and "okay", then everything goes silent again. All I hear now is the blood racing through my brain and the cries of pain I'm keeping balled up inside of me right now."Wait there," Maddox orders, stuffing
Willow's POV "Alright, Willow!" the doctor yells over my screams and sweats of pushing a literal watermelon out of my puss-, "On the count of three you're going to give me the biggest push you can alright? This baby is nearly out now and that's what we want, okay?" I nod, glancing up at Maddox and he smiles through all his frightfulness. "C'mon baby, you've got this. Just one more push and the first one will be here, alright?" he tells me, dapping a cool towel over my red and sweaty face, still, with his other hand tightly wrapped around mine. "No no no..." I groan tossing my head back into the pillow resisting the urge to push some more, "I-I can't do this anymore, Maddox... I'm too weak to do this- I'm too weak and fragile to be the mother of your children!" I cry, hot tears beginning to flow down my rosy cheeks. He shakes his head, getting low to my level. "No, Willow you are not weak by any means whatsoever. I have no
Willow's POV "Wow you guys..." Liam gasps as he craddles our baby boy in his arms and looks over to Sam who's craddling our girl. "I can't believe I'm an uncle... Oh my God! I thought I'd never see the day!" Maddox chuckles, gleaming down at our baby girl with pride prominent in his eyes. "Ha, you aren't really their uncle yet... You and Samual have been together for years and aren't even married yet! Like c'mon guys... Willow and I have been together for like nearly a year and we already have two kids on our hands." He puts a hand over his brother, Samual's shoulder and smirks, "it's not like you have no money, Buddy. Willow's costed around a mill and not even a dent was made in the account." Wait.. The fucking ring I am wearing right now, the one that's sitting around my left ring finger is a million fucking dollars?! I never even owned something over ten thousand dollars! "You're kidding..." I say, taking my hand and twisting
A few days after the twin's birth...Maddox's POVGlancing down at my watch as I attempt to put Mariella down for the second time within the hour, I see that it's now midnight, meaning neither her of Flynn have really slept for the past twelve hours, even with Willow and I's many attempts to get them there.I love our little creations more than I love anything, but damn are they a lot of work on the both of us... I truly underestimated taking care of babies. I'm not sure how my father did it alone with me. He did have help with Samual, from his second wife who also passed away, but still. Taking care of anything even partially vampire and now hybrid takes a village.Right now, Willow is asleep in our bed in the next room since she's been up for over twenty-four hours straight with the babies while I was handling some business down in the office. Samual and Liam came to help, but eventually they had to
Willow's POV"Oh. My. God!" I scream in excitement. Right in front of me are the most favourite things that I haven't seen in forever: MY ANIMALS! "Come here babies!" I squeal, getting down on to my knees and opening my arms, feeling Charlie and Maya get into my arms first, licking my face over and over until I fall on my back and let them trample me with their love and affection. Then the cats follow quickly after, smothering me with their thick tails and clogging my airways with all their shedding hair.Never have I been so grateful for shedding hair clogging my nose so I can't breathe."I see you're happy about this! Was it as much of a surprise as you expected?" Maddox calls out through all the animals trampling me into the ground."Y-yeah!" I call back, grabbing onto Charlie's golden-haired neck and pulling myself up through the hairy, happy mess. Maddox runs over to me, grabbing my hand to get me out of this tackli
Nine busy months later... Willow's POV "Maddox! Come quick with your phone! Flynn might be walking," I holler in from the bedroom, putting my arms out to Flynn who is standing himself up with support from the bedframe. Mariella turns towards her brother and smiles, then quickly crawls over in her little pink sundress, climbing up right beside Flynn. "Oh- Oh! Mariellas walking too!" I clap in excitement and both of my babies giggle from my silly face and claps. "I'm comin," Maddox calls back and he rushes in through the door from the closet with his super speed, tumbling down beside me with his phone in hand. Both babies nearly fall back laughing because they think that their daddy falling over is the funniest thing in the world! I laugh too just from their little giggles. I never thought babies could make you smile and laugh this much. Still laughing quietly, little Flynn starts usin
Maddox's POV "Now, if you want a decently good night tonight," I taunt, drawing the leather whip up higher beneath her shirt, coming into contact with her bra then taking my hand up her back and unsnapping it, "I recommend that you go ahead and get rid of those clothes..." Now with her finally giving in, she nods then steps out from infront of me and scurries away from me and beside the closet. I stay there a moment, facing the door, relishing in the fact that I'm going to be able to touch her beautiful body just the way I please again. "Oh, and put on something from the closet..." I call back. "I want to be able to take something off of you." I grin to myself, taking the leather whip and slowly drawing the material over the palm of my hand, impatiently waiting to use it against Willow, making her ass as red as possible as she begs me to stop. Fuck, I'm already hard. "I-I am ready, Maddox," I hear her call out from
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! Do you really think that
Willow’s POVA week later…Maybe the wolf coming after me wasn’t such a bad thing… maybe, just maybe, it was bette than that to happen than being chased by Maddox until he became so angry with me that I would end up being a meal.Yes, I went through pain with that stupid wolf having almost smashed my arm in half, nearly leaving half of it on the ground, but it was so much less pain than what Maddox has been putting me through these past three years- even more now that I think about it. 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
Maddox’s POVWhat can possibly be taking her so long? 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
