"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 then pushed me hard as he let go of my neck making me fall back to bed. I coughed so hard struggling to breathe some air desperate for life.
"Haaaa! Haaa! Cough!... Even if... Haaa! The father is. Cough! a sinner... that doesn't mean cough! everyone in the family's the same! Cough! Cough!" I spoke even when I'm struggling for air.
"HA!! WHATEVER!.. JUST DO AS I SAY BEFORE I KILL YOU!" Tyler shouted and walked out of the room.
'Guess he'll end up killing me if he stayed any longer...' I said in my head.
My heart feels so painful it's hard to breathe. My body aches all over and I don't have enough strength to run away. I don't have a choice but to do what he wants me to or I'll just hurt myself more.I don't know what my father did for him to seek revenge like this. Just how much anger and hate must one have to be able to embrace their enemy? I couldn't bear to imagine how much he must have hated every time he kisses me, every time he hugs me, and every time he'd say how much he loves me.
How could one change so much overnight? I might've not known everything about him and his past, but I do know and I'm certain, everything he's shown me all those times was real.
I don't want to believe in everything that is happening.I don't want to throw the memories we had away. We were perfect and happy, we may not have the luxury to buy the things we want and date at amazing places but we were genuinely happy... or more like I'm happy because that's how he wants me to be.
Tyler is not the type of a guy that any girl would want to date seriously. Yes, he is handsome and smart but he's got nothing at all, he is poor and orphaned. Some would pity him and some act like they care but would always make fun of what he lacks. I can't say I'm better than anyone, I just don't care about those petty things. Each of us has our problems and weaknesses, so I feel like I have no right to feel pity for him nor mock him.
He and I were classmates, but we never really talk to each other. We started getting closer to each other after some of our classmates tried to force him to do their project, saying they'll pay him enough for him to last another semester.
I told those people off, and that kind of offended Tyler, but I told him I didn't do it because I pity him or looked down on him, but because I despise people who use others for their benefit when they can do it on their own.
As simple as that we became closer, we gradually started hanging out together and then fell in love with each other. Tyler was the kindest and humble person I've ever known. He would always put me first above everything else, he loves to whisper sweet things in my ears and he would always come running to my side whenever I'm down.
All the feelings and the things he did for me were too real to be a lie. Every time he kisses me and wraps his hands around me saying how much he loves me, I could feel how much those words were true. He was sincere... Or maybe he's just so good at acting that even his warmth felt so real.
I cleaned myself and wore the dress he gave me, I made sure to make myself look pretty even without make-up, just like what he wanted me to do. I looked at myself in the mirror and smiled sadly thinking how this beautiful woman in front of me no longer has a loving groom waiting for her in front of the altar.
I went out of the room and I saw him waiting outside. He stood there smoking looking at me and he smirked.
"Good! Now let's go!" He said.
We went out of the apartment and took a taxi to god knows where. And when we arrived at the place he said we're going, I realized it's the church."You stay here! I'll enter first, you'll enter when it's your turn. Don't even think of running away!" He said as he straightened his suit then left to enter the church.
What is he doing here in the church?After he entered I heard singing which sounds like a song for a wedding ceremony, I feel so confused and dumbfounded as to what is going on.
After waiting for a while I'm finally called inside and the doors of the church opened widely, showing a lot of familiar faces inside. When I get inside, I froze in shock. There in front of everyone lies my greatest shame in life...To be continued.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
5 YEARS LATER," We need to go, sir, the gala will start in fifteen minutes." Said Tyler's secretary."Hmmm," He replied as he adjusted his necktie." Come back soon baby, okay?" Said Fiona as she wraps her arms around Tyler's neck and kisses him on the lips.After Aubrey left, Fiona did everything to get Tyler, they've been sleeping together for the past five years but Tyler never once asked her to be his woman." I'll come back when I feel like it!" He said without looking at her and left.Tyler was always like that to Fiona and his actions made her a miserable and pathetic woman. She stayed on Tyler's side knowing he loves Aubrey. One time she tried to get herself pregnant with Tyler's child but she ended up finding out she can't get pregnant."I won't let anyone have you, Tyler!" Fiona gazed at the door where Tyler left.Tyler hadn't seen his friend Rhyan for fives years, the one he asked to rape Aubrey that night. He heard
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
Tyler arrived at the beach where his secretary arranged for him to spend his one-week vacation. 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
Aubrey looked at the shocked facial expression of Tyler upon seeing her child confused. She continuously stared at him with that confused expression as he too continued to wear that shocked expression on his face."Mr. Monroe? Is there a problem?" She asked, snapping Tyler back."Ah no, there's none... Your daughter is just too pretty that I was in awe for a moment." He chuckled lightly."Is that so?" She smiled fakely.Aubrey knew there was something about the way Tyler stares at her daughter that she has no idea about. She knew Tyler won't tell her what it is so she let it go for now."How old is your daughter?" Asked Tyler."She's four."Throughout the whole dinner, Tyler kept on glancing at Amber suspiciously that it made Aubrey uncomfortable."Uhmm, Mr. Monroe. Why do you keep staring at my daughter like that?"This question took Tyler by surprise. He looked away who's still intently gazing at Amber quickly.
Fiona glared at Aubrey and then shifted her gaze to Tyler, she looks so mad like she's about to explode. "Is this the reason why you're pushing me away? Because you finally found her?" She yelled at Tyler. Aubrey frowned at her words which made Tyler flinch. She looked at him with a suspicious look in her eyes. "Mrs. Anderson, I'm sorry but, can you please give us a minute?" Tyler hurriedly said. "Mrs.? So you're already married? And you're still seducing someone else's man? You really haven't changed Aubrey, you're still a slut!" Fiona hatefully said. Aubrey's mood changed at Fiona's words. She strode closer towards her and a loud sound of a slap startled Tyler. Aubrey slapped Fiona real hard that she got so shocked she wasn't able to utter a single word. "First of all, I don't know who you are and I don't know how you've come to know me. Second, you're right I'm married, and I love my husband wholeheartedly. Third, I never tried to s
The truth is, Fiona thought Tyler will propose to her any time soon. She's been deluding herself that Tyler can't live without her in his life. She thought she's the only one Tyler needed. And thus, she wasn't expecting Tyler to ask her to leave his side and throw her away. Fiona was left standing all alone crying emotionally. She couldn't help but hate Aubrey for coming back alive. She gritted her teeth at the image of Tyler holding Aubrey in his arms lovingly playing inside her head. "I'll never let you be together! I'd rather die than let that happen!" She clenched her fist. On the other hand, Tyler directly went to Aubrey's suite. He knocked on the door to apologize, but a different person opened the door, the Nanny. Turns out Aubrey wasn't in the suite. Tyler went out to search for her but he couldn't find her. His anxiety started to kick off, Aubrey leaving him and was never found five years ago played in his head. He couldn't help but clench his trembl

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
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
"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
"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.
