The Bride Chapter 36: Blood Ties
Chapter 36: Blood TiesI stood at the threshold, hesitating as the muffled voices from within reach my ears.My heart pounded with uncertainty, but the desperate need to understand what was actually happening inside propels me forward.Slowly, I press my ear against the door, attempting to decipher the words spoken by a male voice which undoubtedly my brother.Amidst the faint sobs, my mother's tearful voice resonates through the room. “Please, Kyle! Please don’t do this!”The air thickens as I strain to catch every word.“This is all I have left!” Her sobs grow louder as does the tremor in her voice. “What will I do after you’ve taken it all? How will I live on?”“That’s not my problem, is it?” Kyle yells out, and yet another crash makes me flinch, but I still keep listening. “How am I supposed to live on, mother? You think I can keep slaving at my in-laws like this every day? They treat me like a fucking slave! I need to get the fuck out of there!”“But…I won’t have anything left, s

If there's anything I can do to help, please let me know," she said, her voice carrying the weight of sincerity.Tears welled up in my eyes as I managed a weak smile. "Thank you, Mrs. Synclair.

The Bride Chapter 39: Trapped
Chapter 39: TrappedWe walked in silence and the words of Mrs. Synclair kept ringing in my head. And also I remembered what she told me way back in the car about him and Cathy.My heart raced as Jordan guided me to a secluded area of the hospital, away from prying eyes and curious ears.The sterile smell of disinfectant surrounded us, intensifying my unease.Despite the nagging feeling that something wasn't right, gratitude for Jordan's role in saving my mother compelled me to follow.In the quiet corner, I finally mustered the courage to question Jordan's motives."What do you want, Jordan? Why bring me here?" I asked, my voice betraying a mix of curiosity and apprehension.I stood in the sterile hallway of the hospital, my arms folded tightly across my chest, staring daggers at Jordan as he approached. His confident stride matched the arrogance in his eyes, and I felt my anger boil beneath the surface.This had been a fucking mistake. How could you’ve been so stupid, Kyra?"Kyra," h
The Bride Chapter 40: Stronger Together
Chapter 40: Stronger Together“Stay the fuck away from my girl.”Instant relief flooded through my veins as I realized someone had come to my aid.The chaos of the moment paused, the hospital corridor transformed into a battlefield of emotions.The atmosphere crackled with tension, and my eyes met those of the person who had just rescued me, just a fraction of a second before she turned around to shield me with her body.Jordan and I both stared astounded at the woman who was now standing in between us, taking a protective stance in front of me. She was turned towards Jordan with her back to me and she was wearing a leather jacket with dark blue jeans and high heeled boots. Her hair was wavy and cut in a bob that barely touched her shoulders. It appeared black with some light blue highlights.But even without looking, I could tell who she was.Jordan was looking at her in confusion as he covered his wounded cheek with his hand. Anyone else would’ve been confused too…but I had known he
The Bride Chapter 41: At Your Command
Chapter 41: At Your Command"On the floor, Kyra," Gabby told me as soon as we were inside the confines of my hotel room, the doors locked securely behind us. "Hands behind your back."I slide down to the floor on my knees and put my hands behind my back as she asks.We were both completely naked, Gabby’s first demand having been to take off our clothes as soon as we shut the door. The cool air felt delicious on my skin, causing goosebumps to rise on my arms and my nipples started to pebble.She comes closer so she's standing right in front of me and puts one hand under my chin until my head is tilted up to her.She's looking down at me with maybe the most domineering gaze she's ever given me, licking her lips lightly. "Such a good girl, baby. You look very sexy on your knees.”“I've been thinking about this since I saw you," she says as she circles me until she's standing behind my body with her hands sitting lightly on my shoulders.I can feel her body heat behind me but keep my eyes

Chapter 42: Gaining WitnessesAs the morning sun gently filtered through the curtains, casting a warm glow across the room, Gabby and I sat at the kitchen table of my mother’s house, the day looming ahead of us as we struggled to make a difficult decision.The house had been a mess when we had arrived early in the morning, but Gabby and I had worked tirelessly to clean up all the broken shards and cleared the room of any debris. It looked spotless now, but several things needed to be disposed off since they had been broken beyond repair.The broken glass shards had made me aware of the fragile bonds that bound us together as family. Some bonds when broken, remained shattered forever. There was no way of joining them back together, no matter how hard we tried.The weight of the previous day's events still hung heavy in the air, despite the temporary relief we felt knowing my brother was behind bars for now and my mother was in recovery. But Jordan’s forceful encounter had left me shake

"I don't want to disturb your time with your mother. Just let me know if you need anything."I nodded gratefully, touched by Gabby's thoughtfulness. With a reassuring smile, I stepped into the room, steeling myself for the difficult chat ahead.As I entered the room, the sight of my mother lying in the hospital bed sent a pang of sorrow coursing through my heart.She looked so frail and vulnerable, a far cry from the strong woman I knew her to be.But as soon as she caught sight of me, tears welled in her eyes, and she reached out for me with trembling hands."Kyra,"

The Bride Chapter 55: Justice Served
Chapter 55: Justice ServedI sat on the porch swing with Gabby, the weight of the past few weeks seemed to lift off our shoulders as we watched the videos of our wedding going viral on the internet.The news of Jordan's arrest had spread like wildfire through our small town, and while it brought relief, it also brought a new wave of gossip and judgment. People whispered behind our backs, casting a shadow over our family name."Can you believe it, Kyra?" Gabby sighed, her voice heavy with exhaustion. "I never thought we'd see the day when helping another woman walking out of an abusive relationship would be termed ‘none of our business and ‘we should’ve stayed out of their personal life’."I shook my head, the disbelief still lingering."I know, it's like something out of a movie.” I sighed, closing my phone. “But it's over now, and we can move on. Jordan got the punishment he deserved and Cathy is now free of his abuse. Justice was served."Gabby nodded, her eyes scanning the street f

"Did you sell me off like that?"The silence that followed was deafening, broken only by the ragged sound of Cathy's breaths.My heart ached for her, for the pain and betrayal she must be feeling in this moment of reckoning. But Jordan's cruel words cut through the silence like a knife, his accusations casting doubt upon everything we thought we knew.“Of course he did!

My eyes darted between Cathy, Jordan, and the rest of the stunned guests.Cathy's attempt to restrain Jordan only seemed to fuel his rage further.I could see the fear in her eyes as she reached out to him, her hand trembling. But when he felt her touch, he jerked his hand away as if he was disgusted by her, before he gripped her arm tightly when she attempted to reach for him yet again."Stop it, Jordan!" I screamed, my voice echoing through the room.But he seemed oblivious to my pleas, his grip tightening on Cathy's arm as he shoved her away.My stomach churned as I watched her fall to the floor, cradling her swollen belly.
