'Oh his here! I'll make you jump today baby.. hehe' I said in my head as I get out of the curtain.
"Ughhh.... slowly Tyler~" I heard a woman said.
" What can I do? You're just so sexy, so bear with me baby..." A man's voice replied.
I recognized the man's voice and it's none other than Tyler's, the guy I dated for three years and my soon-to-be husband."You're such a bad guy Tyler~ ... How could you play with me your fiancee's best friend?..." The woman said.
'Wait! Don't tell me, Shane?' I said in my head as tears rolled down my cheeks...
'How could they do this to me?' I said clutching my fist.The sounds are getting louder and I can tell they're about to take off their clothes by the sounds they are making. I couldn't take it anymore so I went out and confronted them."ENOUGH!!!!!!" I shouted. They both looked so startled by the sudden sound.
"A-Aubrey? W-what are you doing here?" Shane said.
" Shouldn't I be the one asking you that? How could you Shane? How could you!!!" Shane fidgeted, she looks so embarrassed she couldn't meet my eyes.
Shane and I have been best friends since senior high. Whenever she's in trouble I'd always be there to lend her a hand and a shoulder to lean on. I've always been there for her whenever she's down and feeling worthless. I treated her like a family, not because I pity her but because I did love her. It has always been me who's there for her. So I've never once doubted her, she's the last person I've ever thought would betray me.
"Shane... I love you so much... How could you betray me like this? I supported you in everything and anything you wanted in every way I could.!!" I said as I took a step closer to them.
"A-Aubrey... I'm so sorry... I-I didn't mean to!" She said and I slapped her.
"How dare you say you didn't mean it? I heard everything you said the moment you both entered the apartment!!! Stop acting innocent you're just a whore!!!" I said in anger and Shane ran out of the apartment crying. I've never once judged her for having sex with just anyone when she feels like it, I know what I said hurt her, but I'm hurting more I could care less.
"Come back here!!!" I said trying to chase her but Tyler grabbed my hand.
"That's enough Aubrey!" He said calmly.
I turned to face him and my palm landed on his cheek. I slapped him."How could you? Why? Just why?!!"
"I trusted you! I loved you with all my heart, how could you do this to me? Am I not enough? Where am I lacking? I gave you everything I could give because I love you and I thought you were the same. " I said grabbing his collar crying because of the pain and anger in my heart.
" I-I'm so sorry... Please give me another chance..." He said kneeling slowly. I cried so much that I'm choking. I took a deep breath to say something but he interrupted me with his deadly glare.
" Do you think I'd say that? HAHAHAHA" Tyler said laughing like a madman.
"W-what do you mean?" I took a step back, scared of his sudden change in attitude and facial expression. We've been together for three years but I've never once seen him like this.
Tyler stood up straight he straightened his tie and walked slowly towards me." You're right!" He said staring at me.
"W-what?" I said taking a step back.
"You heard me! You're right! You've never been enough!" He said and went to grab a chair, he then sat down and crossed his legs.
The way he looks at me was so different than how he usually looks at me, he would look at me so gently like I'm some kind of fragile glass before, but now, he glares at me like how a predator towards its prey. I'm so shocked I can no longer feel my legs. The strength in my body dissipating, I slumped down on the floor crying.
"H-have you ever loved me?" I asked nervously. I don't want to know but I need to for my sake. I clutched my fist as I await his answer hoping he'd say he did love me. But the reality's always been so cruel.
"Ha!! Love you, you say? HAHAHAHA" he laughed like that was the most ridiculous question he'd ever heard.
"NO! I've never once loved you. Not now, not before, NEVER!! He said heartlessly. His words cutting deep into my heart making the pain more unbearable than it is.
"I-I don't believe you! Why would you propose to me if you don't even love me? You're lying!" I said lying to myself. I can tell by the look in his eyes, that he doesn't care.
The three years Tyler and I spent together were perfect, we're happy every single day. Everyone envied us for being such a loving couple. So how did things turn out like this? Where did I go wrong?"You want to know if I'm lying or not right? Then why don't I confirm it for ya!" Tyler said as he stood up and walked closer to me.
"W-". I said but before I could finish a single word he grabbed my hair and dragged me to his room.
"Ahhhh!! Tyler let go! It hurts.." I cried holding his hand that's grabbing my hair.
"Like hell, I care!" He spat on me.
" Tyler, please... Ahhh!!" I shouted as he throw me on the bed. I feel like my hair's gonna fall off it hurts so much.
"You want to know right? Then I'll show you!" Tyler said with an evil smirk.
I felt shivers down my spine when he said that. I know something bad's gonna happen from the way he smirked.He went to open his drawer and took out a handcuff, my eyes went wide the moment I saw it. I tried to run away but he caught me and cuffed my hands on the bed. after he cuffed my hands he took out his phone and called someone to come." Hey, buddy! I have a surprise for you... Come to my apartment!" He said and hang up. He turned to look at me and smirked.
" You're in big trouble now Aubrey... You shouldn't have come here, now look at what happened. This is all your fault, you only have yourself to blame."

"Do you want to know why I'm doing this? It's for revenge!" He said with his hand on my chin making me look up to him."R-revenge? What are you talking about?" I asked."From the very beginning, I approached you to get my revenge from your father. And I plan to ruin you his beloved daughter, just like what he did to my mother!" He said he's eyes full of anger." I don- " I said and was cut off by a knock." Hey, dude!! I'm here open up!" The voice said which I believe belonged to Rhyan, Tyler's friend who's chased me for so long even though he knew I'm with his friend.Tyler went to open the door and they both went inside the room where I'm cuffed."Come here, dude! This is my surprise. You can do whatever you want with her." He said smiling generously."W-what? Seriously? Stop joking bro!" Rhyan replied."I said you could do whatever you want, well if you don't want to I-" He said and was cut off by Rhyan." No! Don't c

I awoke at the sounds of someone laughing from outside the room. I was still lying on the floor naked and wet. I forced my bruised body to move and took a pair of clothes on the closet, I've been here in Tyler's apartment almost all the time so I had a lot of clothes left here. After dressing myself I went to open the rooms' door and what dawned on me was Tyler's heated session with another woman. "What do you think you're doing?" I shouted. Though Tyler hurt me so much and it's impossible to forgive him, I can't deny I still love him. And seeing him making out with another woman while caressing her gently after doing all those things to me broke my heart. "Why are you here? Did I told you to come out?" He glared at me. "How could you be like this to me, Tyler?" "Are you going back in there yourself or I'll make you?" "Tyler, isn't that your fiancee? I thought you said she wasn't here?" The woman said. I loo

"You think I want to be with you? Ha! You disgust me, you slut!!" He said hatefully. "Then let me go! If you hate me so much just let me leave! Haven't you hurt me enough? Just how much more do you want me to suffer?" I yelled. "Whatever! You're going whether you like it or not or I will upload the video I took of you that night! Let's see what will happen then!" Tyler said threatening me, his eyes blazing with anger. " What did I do to deserve this? I've never once wronged you or anyone else, so why?.." I asked him crying. He looks, even more, angrier after I said that, the hand that was pinching my chin went to choke my neck. "Ughhh!!" I struggled to escape from his grasp as I'm suffocating, but he choked me even harder till I could feel my eyes roll at the back of my head. "You deserve all of this because you are the daughter of a sinner! You have no right to live a peaceful life!! PEOPLE LIKE YOU DESERVE TO LIVE MISERABLY!!" Tyler said the

What I came to see the moment I entered the church made me tremble in horror. There, playing at the screen beside the altar was me and Rhyan doing that thing. I stayed rooted at the ground where I'm standing, unable to move an inch and utter a single word."Aubrey... How could you do this to me?... I love you so much how could you cheat on me?" Tyler said crying pitifully. He's standing near the altar waiting for his bride looking so heartbroken.I don't know what's going on anymore, the church's designed like there is going to be a wedding and there are also a lot of people, but why is Tyler the one near the altar? Who is he waiting for? It's not the time for our wedding yet and we've decided to get married next year, what is going on?"W-What?" I said in disbelief.I looked around and realized that there are more people than I thought. Some of our teachers are even there and there are a lot of other people who are not so familiar to me.All of th

My name is Aubrey James, I grew up in a place where I never wanted to be. A place that I can never call a home, where I only exist as everyone's chess piece and a bargaining chip. A place where I was never seen as a human but a tool, a tool they can use for their profit and I'm nothing but a living doll. My parents aren't rich nor are they poor, they just had enough money they need, to live normally and well but they never get along, they'd fight every day and I'd always get dragged in their fight receiving all the blows. After eleven years of marriage, they finally had enough and so they decided to go on their separate ways, but no one wanted to take care of me. Since I was six years old as far as I can remember, my mother told me she never wanted me. She said I was a mistake, a thorn in her eyes, that I was a stain in her life, a hindrance to her dreams, and the one who ruined her life, she said all those things to me while grabbing my hair and hitting me. I don't

When Tyler reached his house, he quickly took his clothes off and went directly to shower. He needed something cold to cool his head. He couldn't believe he'd ever see Aubrey again, especially as a wife of his friend. "Jonas, investigate Aubrey Anderson," Tyler told his secretary after coming out of the bathroom. "I want it by tomorrow." He added. "Yes, sir." The next morning, "This is all I could find about Mrs. Anderson..." Jonas, Tyler's secretary handed him the file. "It appears she was involved in a hit and run accident five years ago and somehow lost most of her memories," Jonas added. "The date she had an accident..." Tyler mumbled. "Yes, it was the day she left you." Jonas was one of the many friends Tyler have. He was also there to witness what has happened in the church five years ago. But Jonas is indifferent and aloof, he knew from the start that Tyler set Aubrey up to make her the bad pe

He was standing blankly waiting for the elevator in the hotel Jonas arranged for him that he didn't get to notice a familiar figure walking past him. When the elevator door opened, Tyler snapped back and quickly get in. He hadn't had a good sleep nor was he able to rest as his mind was in a mess. He went to his hotel room and directly lay on the bed without taking his shoes off and in a short while without realizing it, he fell asleep. "Uhmm... What time is it?" He said as he slowly got up. He lazily checked his watch and see it was still 3 p.m. He arrived at the beach at noon and slept for three hours. He went out of his hotel room wearing a white t-shirt and short pants. Tyler walked around exploring the area trying his best to take his mind off Aubrey. He went to walk beside the sea with his sunglasses on, the sun was still high up in the sky but it wasn

Two days later, a group of police officers went to the Anderson's with an arrest warrant for Rhyan. Rhyan and Aubrey together with the kids are having a peaceful meal when the policemen suddenly barged inside the house and arrest Rhyan.Rhyan was dumbfounded, everything happened so quickly that he wasn't able to react the way he used to. And when he's got back to his senses, he's already brought in the police station."WHAT THE FUCK DO YOU THINK YOU'RE DOING?" Rhyan yelled.He still has yet to understand the reason why he's being held. And just as he was about to slap a policeman for going against him, a familiar voice spoke behind him which stopped him from doing anything."I wouldn't do that if I were you," Shane said with the Morris couple following behind."W-What..." Rhyan stuttered in surprise.When he's heard Mrs. Morris say that she's Aubrey's mother in the ball, he had a hunch that it could be Mrs. Morris's doing that his company ha

“I never had a mother. And if I ever had one, it would certainly be not you, Mrs. Morris. I think you got the wrong person. I’ll excuse myself then.” Aubrey said and made her way to the door.Rhyan immediately went down the stairs and before Aubrey could reach the door, Rhyan grabbed her arm.“Where do you think you’re going? Have I not told you to stay put?” He said.“Oh my god… What was that just now? Is she really Mrs. Morris’s daughter?”“Didn’t she say she isn’t though?”“Maybe she ran away and refused to acknowledge her own mother?”“Who knows…”“She must be Mrs. Morris’s illegitimate daughter.”“Who cares if she’s an illegitimate child? Her mother’s on top of the food chain...”“Yeah, right!”Rhyan looked around and everyone is lookin

DAY OF THE BALL"You look gorgeous as always." Said Rhyan looking up at Aubrey as she walks down the stairs.Aubrey just rolled her eyes and ignored him. She walked past him and went inside the car on her own. Rhyan couldn't help but sigh, he just followed her and they then both made their way to the venue." Announcing the arrival of Mr. and Mrs. Anderson." Said the person guarding the door.Aubrey and Rhyan walked inside and then suddenly, Aubrey froze and Rhyan stopped after noticing her reaction."What's the matter?" He asked with a frown.That snapped Aubrey and she answered stutteringly."N-No... No-Nothing..." She said and looked away. Obviously, something smell's fishy.Aubrey stiffened when she realized they are heading in the direction of the person she was so shocked to see.“Where are we going?” She asked nervously.“To greet the host. Where else do you think?” Rhyan

"Hello, Aubrey. It's been a while..." Said Rhyan walking towards Aubrey majestically.Aubrey and the kids are back in Rhyan's house while Shane was sent to the hospital. After the incident. Aubrey explained to the police that Tyler hadn't kidnapped them or were they ever kidnapped. But contrary to her explanations, she was forcefully brought back home to their house.Shane and the kids are also brought with them, but Shane was brought directly to the hospital. Turns out she was raped by her ex. The one who informed Rhyan about their whereabouts. He was tempted by the money Rhyan offered to the person who can find his family so he immediately told Rhyan about them. And before he took the money away, he asked Rhyan if he could have his way with Shane.It's not like he has never touched Shane the whole time they were dating years ago, it's just that, he loved Shane so much, yet she left with another guy and he hated her for it. He raped her and was nowhere near gen

"WHERE ARE THEY?!!" Rhyan shouted in anger upon seeing the room where he held Shane and the kids captive empty."Kai took them..." Glenn replied."Where is he?""I'm here..." Kai replied upon entering the room. He's just arrived."Where are the kids? And Shane?" Rhyan said raising a brow with an inflamed facial expression."I sent them to Tyler...""What? Are you out of your mind? Do you realize how much effort I put to get them?""I know,""THEN WHY?!!!" Rhyan yelled at Kai's expressionless face."Because I have a plan that will take Tyler out of your way..." Kai answered which surprised Rhyan."What plan?" Rhyan asked with a frown never leaving his face."We can frame him about the kidnapping and put him to jail."Rhyan's once enraged face turned into a sinister smile. He can't deny that Kai's idea is great. The police are on Rhyan's side, all he has to do is to make it look like it was Tyler
THE LOST INNOCENCE CHAPTER 32
Before the sun rises, Aubrey and Tyler heard the screeching sound of vehicles approaching. Tyler hurriedly went to the window to check, just in case, it’s another group of black-suited men sent by Rhyan. He wasn’t wrong about the guys from those vehicles wearing a black suit but those aren’t Rhyan’s men, it’s Kai’s and Kai is also one of them. There are two vans and both are filled with his men. When the vehicles stopped right in front of the house Tyler and Aubrey are currently staying in, it is still dark but the sun will rise in just a couple more minutes. “Take them out,” Kai ordered his men. After he commanded his men, his men immediately took the twins and Shane out of the car and place them inside the house as they are all unconscious. “I did what you’ve asked, but I don’t like what you offered to do in exchange,” Kai said. “Then, what is it that you want?” Tyler asked with a frown. “Go and see our father. He’s been asking for y
THE LOST INNOCENCE CHAPTER 31
"No, no! This can't be real... Rhyan can't possibly locate them in that place so soon." Aubrey said as she looked at the picture with her trembling hands. "Does anyone else know they'll be staying there?" "N-No... Only the house owner, Shane's old acquaintance. But he does not know who we are, he only knows Shane so he can't be the one who's informed Rhyan about their location." "I think he does. Look!" Tyler said. He showed Aubrey trending news using his phone. Turns out Rhyan has let the public know about Aubrey's disappearance. In the news, he made it seem like Aubrey's been kidnapped and so were their children. And whoever could lead him to them will receive one million dollars. "I think everyone knows. Your face is everywhere..." "Damn! I shouldn't have run away just yet... If only I could bear staying by his side for another night this wouldn't have had to happen." "You should have told me beforehand so I could help
THE LOST INNOCENCE CHAPTER 30
"You can count on me, I will help you to the best of my ability," Tyler said as he hugs Aubrey. Aubrey let herself cry in Tyler's arms. It has been so long since they've been this intimate with each other and Tyler utterly broke Aubrey five years ago but their connection with each other remains. Aubrey too has no idea why, but she feels safe in Tyler's embrace. Though she no longer hates him, she can't forgive him either. But still, with him by her side, she feels like she could loosen her guard down for a while and let herself free from all the accumulated pain weighing in her heart. "We found her!" Said the man with a black suit behind the tree with his phone on his ears. "Bring her to me," Rhyan said from the other line of the call. "Got it!" The man in a black suit answered and slowly walked out behind the tree. Tyler and Aubrey were utterly shocked to see a bulky man before them, not just one but there are three more behind him.
