Isabella's POVNate stopped me. He then put his hands on my shoulders while making me sit on the bed.You have done enough, now it's my turn, he whispered.He then moved his hands to my back and unclasped my bra in one move.He looked at me sexily before he gently pushed me back to the bed.He made sure to take off all of my clothes first.The only thing I had in me was the ring he had asked me to marry him with.He told me to put it on while he then had his way with me.I much I have missed being with him.I was in love with this man, madly in love with him.We stayed glued to each other the whole night.Days passed, weeks went by, and it was about two months after now the plans for our weddingwere going on.I was with Thelma, and we went for my dress, finally fitting.My wedding with Nate was in a week, and I was the happiest woman on earth.It was my dream come through.I began to think about everything that had happened and how I have gotten here.My wedding was in less than a wee
Isabella POV:"Isabella?" I heard my boyfriend Mike calling my name.I felt my heart drop slightly from his tone.It was gentle, too gentle and Mike was always angry.Standing up on my feet, I tried to see if he brought someone else with him.When I saw only his head, a little breath left my lips before tilting my head down."Come here, sweetie." He said.I found myself nodding my head, I didn't want any beating, I'm still healing from the old ones.I hate when he beats me, I hate when he insults me and makes me feel small.We have been in a relationship for 2 years and in those 2 years was only beating and apologizing for what he did, then beating again.The same routine over and over again.As I walked towards Mike, memories of our tumultuous relationship flooded my mind. The scars, both physical and emotional, served as a constant reminder of the toxic cycle we couldn't escape."Isabella, you know I care about you, right?" Mike's words contradicted the cruelty she had grown accust
Isabella POV:The next morning, I woke up to an empty house.Mike left without telling me.I didn't know if I should be happy about this.Am free for just two days.Something like this had never happened before.I kept asking myself if it was ok for me to escape, maybe try again.But I know He would still find out because Mike always knows.Shaking my head, I rolled out of my bed and walked toward my bathroom.My eyes connected to my room, the sight of my face made me sick.Mike never hit my face, he didn't want people to notice it.So it was only my body.Shaking my head, I took off my clothes, before walking into the shower.A sigh left my lips as the warm water ran out."Now what? What job can I look for?" I thought In my head.It is hard to look for a job especially when I didn't finish school.No one will want to accept me.Shaking my head, I stepped out of the shower, grabbing my towel.When I was done cleaning, I grabbed my big hoodie and shorts.I didn't want people looking at
Isabella POV:The men took me to a mansion, I kept looking at the house as I was pulled in.But all I could think of was what to do next.There's no way they are letting me go and Mike's friends saw them take me away and for the fact I didn't try to fight back.They will tell Mike a whole different story.As I was led into the house, I was greeted by a tall, dark-haired man with piercing green eyes. He looked me up and down, and I felt a shiver run down my spine."I'm Fed, the head of this family," he said, his voice smooth and cold. "Welcome to my home."I swallowed hard, my mind racing as I tried to figure out a way to escape. But before I could think of anything, I was led down a long hallway, the walls covered in paintings and tapestries.We stopped in front of a large wooden door, and Fed opened it, revealing a large room with a roaring fireplace.I was pushed inside, and the door slammed shut behind me.I whirled around, my heart pounding in my chest. The room was empty.No one
