GRACIE
My gaze flickered open slowly, I blinked confused as to where I was, my gaze searched around slowly to be met gaze with Shawn's.
My brain became functioning again Hazel!I flung myself out of the couch fighting back a wave of headache.
I scanned my gaze around a part of me praying that she would come running through the door this very moment but Shawn's grave expression told me it would be anything but not.
"How do you feel? " He clasped my shoulders forcing me to look at him."You have to take it easy or you wouldn't even be alive to see her return! "
"You don't understand he..h... " my words choked up in my throat, I was hyperventilating once againHe hugged me tightly rocking my shoulders gently.
"Just breathe okay... It will be fine "
"I only want to find Hazel" my voice came out muffled against his shouldersIt was all my
GRACIE"If you ever want to see her again, you'll quietly come with me and do exactly as I tell you "His words made my blood run cold...go with him once again?His gaze was certain, like he knew without doubt that I would do as he had just commanded.I closed my eyes briefly I'm not that eighteen year old girl anymore. This time I have my daughter. Hazel..one I have to fight for even if it meant laying down my very life.I shoved away from me and miraculously he let's go, I dragged in a ragged breath as I set some distance between us."No I won't go anywhere with you and I certainly won't do as you say! "Surprise crossed his face for a moment... It disappeared replaced by a hardened and daring look.My legs threatened to falter but I managed to stood my ground even as he took a step forward."I dare you to repeat what you just said "His dark smoul
HAYDEN.I took a moment to survey the room.... the place she'd been living since the past six years, she'd lived here from that night she had gotten away... Then she had my daughter... She must have suffered so many difficulties.. She wasn't as weak as she thought, she was stronger than most women.It made my heart feel so full as my gaze traveled over her features slowly , her hair was now a short blond her formerly long brunette hair suited her better, but in all she's definitely still the most beautiful thing I've ever set my eyes on..Scratch that our daughter was.The few moments I've spent with her have been the most beautiful and peaceful moment of my life.Her bright smile and dimples so much like her mother planted a seed of a very fierce emotion inside of me.I wanted to protect them both. .She'd followed me too trustingly when I told her I was going to get her mother, I didn'
GRACIEI kissed her forehead murmuring a prayer of thanks after checking .her hands and feet, I was glad to see that she was okay.Her gaze focused on something behind me and her face lit up in a huge smile.."Uncle Hayden !"My heart lurched in my throat in full panic as she raced towards him wrapping her arms around his legs..My stomach tightened and sank even deeper in despair when he scooped her up into his arms with surprisingly gentleness.."Hey princess..how are you? "She'd always been accepting and friendly towards everyone, I always loved that about her.. until now...i only want to protect her... I didn't want her getting hurt in any way. ...even not physically.... but emotionally.Any situation but this the sight of a father and his adorable daughter would have melted my heart but all I wanted right now was to rip her from his arms in this very
HAYDENI exhaled raggedly trying to control the turbulent emotions raging inside of me, threatening to choke me up for within..She was sobbing aloud at my harsh spoken words , I could read the confusion in her wide gaze even as her lips denied it..She needs me too, she just didn't realize it yet, I wasn't alone in this craziness or else why would she give birth to our daughter who was a constant reminder to her of me?She could deny it as much as she could but her body told otherwise.I brushed my lips against hers gently just because I couldn't help it. The couch wasn't enough to keep any distance between us ,Fuck.How much I needed this... this closeness.. the feel of her soft skin against mine..I drew in a sharp breath and exhaled aloud, my desire filled gaze focused on her for a moment, her face was quite pale, her eyes and the tip of her nose red
GRACIE.."Look uncle Hayden is making pancakes! "I chose that moment to direct my gaze to meet his, he returned my stare unflinchingly.I resisted the urge to squirm especially when he began to make his gaze over to us.Thankfully Hazel chose that moment to tug on my clothes, breaking off the magnetic pull he had on me.I straightened down to her level to Wipe off pieces of pancakes from the corners of her chin and fingers."I also helped him out, isn't that right uncle Hayden? " she rushed out in an excited gush and I couldn't help the tug of smile that formed on my lips. As much as it worried me that she was getting too attached to him in such a short pace of time, it was also heart warming to see her looking so alive and excited.."That's very good Hazel, but in case you need something or you are hungry you can just ask me, you needn't have to trouble your.... Uncle Hayden
HAYDENAn irritated look crossed my face as I stared at the called ID"You sure took enough time " he spoke as soon as I answered"I had business to handle ,you could have picked a better time brother ""By the way why did you find her back? You've ranted for so long how she isn't good for me so... ""Because you didn't want to find her anymore ... and it was changing you into a person we all don't recognize ""And you think she'll be able to help me? That's fucking stupid "You can always let her go if you're not too keen on having her back "A pregnant silence followed but I could imagine the mocking expression I knew he had on his face."I thought as much.. "A low sound escaped my throat at his words, he shouldn't sound so confident that he did the right thing. She might just end up destroying me instead of fixing me... Not that I believe I can be fixed anyway ..I'm
GRACIE"What if that isn't what I want and all I've ever wanted was your all of you, for you to need me as just as badly as I need you, for me not to have to force you to stay with me, that I deeply crave the most is your love, will you give that to me then? ....we'll both get what we want , will you still help me then? "I stiffened a bit at the dark burning look in his gaze.There were so dark , you could barely see any part of iris left. It was raw with need...desperation and..... fear?We were both alike....As much as he damaged me I still need him, maybe somewhere in the line I got addicted to him as well, but a deep innermost part of me was dark with fear, that his dark side would scald us both..... Maybe not intentionally, but still...But i already came this far, there was no turning point for me, I could only delve deeper and deeper and see where it lead
GRACIEHe wouldn't leave his room, but I noticed the frequent glances he threw in our direction from the bedroom window. So I sent Hazel to him, I knew he would listen to her.And he did...Going out for some air would refresh all of our minds a bit, not to mention that it would also make Hazel happy.When we returned it was already quite dark, I would say everything went fine even though he had barely spoken no more than two words to me, it felt as though he was avoiding me.Hazel's eyes were already drooping closed when the car drove to a stop. We entered the house and I quickly ran her a bath and tucked her in bed.Some time later I noticed his presence behind me"She's asleep " I whisperedHe nodded slowly and took a sit beside the bed , his hand brushing over mine, I looked up wondering if it had been intentional, wordlessly we watched
HAYDEN... FOUR YEARS LATER... A grunt accompanied by a soft moan escaped our parted lips, as I drove us both to the highest height of ecstasy . We fought for a moment to catch out breath. I stared into the gaze of my wife of three years. Yeah, we got married right after she gave birth to our second daughter Sophie. My need for her would never be sated, no matter how many times we've made love, each time it still felt so intense, driving me with the insane need to completely possess her. She was mine, and that would never change. I leaned to kiss the sides of her her hair gently. "Hayd...." she started to say when the loud cry of a baby filled the entire room. A sheepish smile formed on her face as she scrambled for the sheets. "He must have gotten tired of waiting patiently " At her words, a smug smirk of satisfaction spread across my face."Yeah, I understand the feeling, he must be so jealous of me
GRACIEI led her inside the house after Hayden stepped aside, mumbling some words under his breath.The expression he wore would define make anyone uneasy, but Melissa didn't seem to mind, or maybe she just didn't care about what he thought about her.Over the past month our relationship sped up quickly, although Hayden still disapproved, as he always regarded her as "potentially dangerous " .He was wrong , she could as well be the nicest person I've ever met. The first month she'd been eager to learn about me, although the initial awkwardness had been there between us, it had quickly washed away after the first few meets.I think it due to the fact that the both of us grew up without experiencing the love of a a real family. She didn't seem to take offence at Hayden's blatant dislike, as even now his disapproving gaze watched over us like a hawk.
GRACIETHREE MONTHS LATERHands parted my thighs open, hairs tickled my inner thighs as warm breath teased my exposed core."Hayden... " I sighed , my eyes fluttering open.A gasp escaped my lips at the sudden bolt of eccentric pleasure when he gave my slit a long lick.His tongue circled on the nub. teasing my clit , a welcoming moan rose in my throat. I wanted release, but he wasn't going to make it easy, he was in one of his playful moods today."Hayden please...make me cum" I moaned buckling my hips, my fingers sinking into his hair."Now that's a good girl " he murmured, I felt his lips stretched in a smirk against me before his teeth grazed my swollen clit again , sucking at it hungrily.A whimper escaped my mouth, i trembled violently as a orgasm burst free . The shock of it draining out my strength."You taste so good, I can't get enough " He murmure
GRACIE.I was once again in the dark.The sound of his dark ugly laughter echoed as I ran as fast as I could, my heart was pounding hard against my chest. Then I saw Melissa struggling against his grip .An evil grin crept across his features.Oh god! he was going to kill herThe knife was clenched tight in my fist.It punctured straight into his chest .There was so much blood...On the ground, my hands, the sick metallic stagnant smell made me want to vomit.A terrified scream erupted from my mouth when I saw dead gaze blinked at me from the floor.I heard my name, but the voice sounded as though for away.I heard it again, this time it was harsh and commanding , forcing me to jolt awake from the terrifying nightmare . My gaze flew open to a pair of dark green gaze staring down at me in concern. "Hayden.. ""shh it's just
GRACIE"Mommy! " she cried as her arms tightened around me.I embracing her tightly, I closed my eyes inhaling her sweet scent of baby powder. I had been so scared for her..For us.."Papa " she called again voice as he straightened down to her level, his face worked tight with emotions."Are you alright princess? " his gaze scanned over her gentle features as he spoke.She nodded repeatedly but her grip on me didn't lessen a bit.I blinked back to push back the tears, I felt Hayden's gaze on me , he was concerned about me as well, but I think his has more to do with the way I reacted after I had pulled the knife on Robert."That bad guy hurt you mommy ?" Her crying had subsided and became quiet hiccups ."Nothing happened to me sweetie , the bad men didn't hurt me "She didn't looked in any way convinced, I guess the bruises on my fac
GRACIE"You wanted save your sister, why don't you die first bitch! "My legs stilled to a stop , I stood there froze as his words replayed in my ears .Did he just say sister?No, I must have gotten that all wrong, It just wasn't possible, I mean how.....There wasn't much time to ponder over it as he was slowly draining the life out of her like a ragged doll .Any moment from now, it would be too late.I didn't think nor hesitate.I acted instinctively, the knife clenched tightly in my palms.He sensed my movement and moved quickly. Not quick enough.it was too late .For him.A scream of pain erupted from his mouth as the knife drove hard into his chest, I pulled out the knife, tearing another scream from him.I closed my eyes momentarily at the nauseating sight when red liquid seeped from his cloth and into my hands.
GRACIE"What did you do! " he screamed, his face contorted with raw fury .The phone was flung from my hands before I could even utter a word to Hayden , it was sent flying against the nearest wall with a loud crash.He backhanded her hard twice across the face , she fell gracelessly to the hard floor , a whimper escaping her lips.The harsh mark of an ugly bruise was beginning to form below her left eye, there was blood stain running down her nostrils.He kicked her repeatedly like a ragdoll, earning a loud scream from me."Stop it! "I fought against the binds on my foot in futility.He turned towards me in that moment, his lips curved in an evil snarl.I couldn't begin to fathom how cruel he could be, he could even do this to his own daughter, he would even do worse to me. But she fell into this situation all because of me. It was all because I h
GRACIEI ran blindly, my heart pounded frantically against my ribcage, my veins surged with adrenaline mixed with fear , I couldn't really see each turn I made around the mansion, it was dark, where were the lights? , I needed to Hazel and get out of this place..I couldn't imagine the trauma she must be in now, if she was scared, if right now she was crying for me or Hayden.Hayden....Oh god, I wondered if he has realized that we've been kidnapped, I've never needed him as I did right now. I should never have left, but it was already too late to regret that . Right now I have to fight for myself and Hazel, at the same time I would be fighting for him.My feet slowed to a halt as I reached a dead end, I cried out my frustration.It was too late to turn around. The footsteps were getting louder, it was only a matter of seconds before
GRACIEThe first thing that registered on my mind as I slowly drifted into consciousness was that it was cold.Chilling cold..Followed by the sudden sensation of pain, my whole body ached , especially my face, it felt as if it had been hit over by a truck.The floor beneath me was hard and....wet?My heavy lids fluttered open, I blinked twice to clear my hazy vision.It was dimly lit all over,. the only streak of light came from a dim bulb at the far end of the room."Where am I? " I thought inwardly.I tried to move my hands and feet but couldn't, that was when the panic kicked in. Why was I tied up?Have I been kidnapped? So many thoughts were running at great speed through my head. I inhaled sharply as I tried to recall everything that had took place, and how I managed to end up in this state.
