" You're mine, little bird." My blood thrummed loudly in my ears as I crawled away from him on the floor. With long strides, he was already standing above me. He pulled me up and covered my mouth with his palm. Panic set in, my limbs shaking in terror. "You need a reminder of who you belong to." His mismatched eyes boring into mine. I shook my head, violently, tears wetting his hand over my mouth. He brought the knife to my face." Tell your lover, Zayden, not to get involved. I already graced you with the wedding. Marry him, but 7 days after the wedding, come back to Denver, where you belong." I nodded desperately, hoping he wouldn't hurt me. " I'll leave a souvenir." He chuckled and then dug the pocket knife into my side. **** Lillain's life is a delicate mess.

View MoreLillian He ran a hand through his hair, his eyes glued to me the entire time. He looked disoriented and flummoxed. " You're what?" He breathed, his voice a low whisper. My chest ached, he didn't sound happy." I'm....I'm pregnant." He stared at me long and hard, his expression unreadable. This wasn't how I visualised the outcome. It was supposed to be a happy news. He was supposed to receive the news with open arms." Are you ......are you sure about this?" His brows furrowed.I clenched my fists at my sides; the onesie, our baby's onesie, was still lying on the wooden floor.My lips curled." Yes, I am." He shook his head from side to side as if in denial.I scoffed." What?...you don't want a child?" He opened his mouth to say something but shut it right back. His jaw ticked, I could not understand why he was acting this way.When he didn't say anything in response, I chuckled." You don't want a child with me? Is that it ?" I bit down on my inner lip, waiting for him to say
Lillian I looked around, pretending to search for the laptop because I couldn't bring myself to tell him about it and ruin this blissful atmosphere.We just confessed to each other, for Christ's sake. I'm not ruining this mood with the laptop issue." Can the duty wait?...for a few days, maybe?" I batted my eyelashes up at him.His eyes fell to my lips and then a smile appeared on his face." Anything for you." I smiled back and we both went to bed. Two days later, I had morning sickness. We already planned our day with Jade tagging along, but with my current state, I wasn't so sure anymore.It felt like my organs were crashing against each other. Nevertheless, we went out.Zayden booked a hotel close to the beach and a high-class resort. It was Jade's idea that we try out the beach first before any other place on my extravagant list. We also planned to surprise Zayden with the news of my pregnancy at the beach. I was nervous but to hell with it.So here we were, sitting in one of t
Lillian I stared at the piece of paper on my palm. There was a huge lump in my throat that refused to disappear no matter how much I swallowed. I should have known this would happen. I was too careless. In fact, I knew this would happen but overlooked it."I think we should go to another hospital and take another test," Jade spoke, she was as confused as I was. We made the doctor do a pregnancy test again and the results came out the same. I was pregnant! I was pregnant for Zayden! " The results would be the same, you are only going to waste money for another test." The doctor countered. Jade looked at me, a confused expression on her face." Do you know what this means?" I swallowed for the hundredth time again, still unable to find my voice since the doctor made the announcement."How ....how long?" I managed to voice out."12 weeks old, still in your first trimester. I'll advise that now that you are aware, there are some do's and don'ts."The doctor continued. He reac
Zayden My hands tightened on the steering wheel as I drove along the streets, heading for the location on my GPS. Sweat droplets coated my skin, my breathing was erratic. My mind was in a state of extreme turmoil. What the fuck is she doing here! I saw Sage at the airport, I had no idea how she knew I was going to France. What I knew was that it was her I saw. She was hell-bent on making my life miserable and destroying my marriage. I can't lose Lillian, I can't lose her. Not after we've gone several steps in our relationship. Not after I was finally getting that happiness I so much wanted. She didn't say the words back when I told her how I felt but I saw it in her eyes. She was willing to give us a try. I ran my hand through my hair roughly, the text message Sage sent me kept replaying in my head over and over again. "Fuck!" I banged my knuckles on the wheel roughly, making the car swerve. I should tell Lillian. If I don't, Sage will and then I'd be doomed. I
Lillian The flight was.......we'll I can't say much because I slept most of it. I was tired, extremely tired because my dear husband made sure I used all my strength in keeping up with his high libido. It took seven hours to finally get to Paris and then another two hours to get to the villa Zayden owned. The place was extravagant. Jade kept running around, taking pictures to spam her social media account. I only smiled while watching her.Life was good if you were rich. I sighed, finding my way to the bedroom. I was still feeling air-sick. The butlers took out luggage and helped us unpack." Are you okay?" Zayden asked, feeling worried. I nodded." I'm finally on land, I'll be good in a bit." He squeezed my hand." I'll be gone for a few hours, I have to take care of something." I creased my brows." But we just landed!" " Exactly, that's why I have to do this now so I can spend all my time with you." Placing a kiss on my head, he ruffled my hair. I rolled my eyes. I wan
Lillian I bent over the sink with Zayden holding my hair up. This was the third time I was emptying my stomach through my mouth this morning. We haven't even gotten on the plane yet and I was already air sick. Zayden had to delay the flight despite my protest, we were now to depart by evening. "That's gross," Zayden said covering his mouth with a disgusted look on his face. I nudge his stomach with my free hand while glaring at him. He released a chuckle and helped me up. " Can we take a bus instead?" I batted my eyelashes at him. " Nope, planes are safer." He walked me back to our bedroom and I collapsed on the bed. " I don't feel good." I groaned. I felt tired, my bones felt stiff and just the thought of being thousands of feet in the air made me want to puke again. Why did I think this was exciting! " You'll be fine." He assured me. I sighed." I hope so." The next few hours were spent on the bed watching Zayden arrange a couple of files and his laptop int
Lillian Jade kept running around, packing everything she could lay her hands on that she thought we needed. She had been giddy the whole time after I told her we were going to Paris and that we were going to use Zayden's private jet. Nico was against her going but eventually agreed. I understood him; it's quite intimidating if your girlfriend's best friend has a rich husband and she's enjoying privileges indirectly from him.Nico wasn't poor; he had a stable job to live an average life, and I had suggested that he came to work in Zayden's company. All it took was for me to run my hands through Zayden's hair while kissing him, and he'd agree. But it was a big, no. He felt intimidated so we all chilled and let him do what he wanted. "We're going to Paris!" She kept repeating and I just sat at the edge of the bed, watching with a satisfied expression on my face. "My husband said we could go shopping when we arrive, so you don't have to pack too much," I told her, a wide sm
Lillian His words kept echoing in my head. The contract ends here! The contract ends here! The contract ends here! I knew the meaning behind it but I wasn't so sure if I wanted it, yet. Right now, him fucking me so damn hard is what I wanted. I wanted him to make me cum, to wreck my pussy till I was screaming at the top of my voice. Zayden is good; his sexual abilities are top-notch. He knows where to hit, what angle to hit and how to hit. But he is a greedy man, though. He doesn't want me to be in control, he always wants it his way. His hands tightened around my hips painfully. I placed my hand on his chest trying to push him away a little. I wasn't quite comfortable in this position, but knowing Zayden, he is far too gone to think rationally. " Wait, the couch." He slammed into me immediately, shutting Me up and making my bare back slide on the hardwood. " AHH!!" My hands flew to his chest again." Let's use the couch!" He didn't listen, I didn't even think
Zayden She took a shaky breath, her skin pale."He would torture me while whispering that he loved me and no one else would. I believed him because the truth was the only people who ever loved me were my parents, and I barely remembered them." "In what way did he torture you?" I wanted to know how I'd kill him. I was going to inflict ten times the pain, he did on Lillian. I don't care if she's going to hate me for it, but I'm going to make him suffer. I'm going to get justice for her even if it gets me in jail. She swallowed, her voice cracking. It was hard for her. I could tell she was trying so hard not to break down. "Sometimes he'd use a knife, other times his belt, nail or his fist. He didn't fail to pay my tuition and cover my expenses and that was the only thing that kept me going." I squeezed her hand, thankfully she hadn't noticed the scratch on my knuckles. I made sure to clean them up and apply a concealer after punching the wall to relieve my frustration yesterday.
Lillian I walked into the massive building, careful not to let the mud on my shoes stain the sparkling white tiles. I received an email yesterday that I had passed the job interview so here I was on my first day as a secretary. Walking over to a lady behind the reception, I gave her a sweet smile. “ Umm, excuse me. I'm Lillian Ace." She grasped.“ Ohh, our new employee!” I nodded, still smiling even though my lips hurt. “Give me a minute,” she said then typed something on the computer before turning to face me again. She looked me up and down slowly with a smug smile on her face. I suddenly felt self-conscious. I was wearing a sunset yellow dress and a pair of white Stilettos. “ Is this how you dressed in your previous work?” She snarled. My previous work was at a café, I wore jeans every single day, but I wasn't going to blurt that out. “Well, it's decent enough."I retorted. She smacked her red painted lips shaking her head. “ Miss, we have a dress code here. All ...
