Thorns of the Heart Chapter 29
Tyler’s POVI strained to make sense of what I was seeing. Madison was naked in front of me. As I glanced at her round and hard breast, I could feel my dick rising. I battled to keep my cool. It was really difficult for me to suppress my burning need. I relocated to be closer to Madison.She couldn't move because she was so shocked. I could feel her heart thumping in her chest as she stood still. She probably expected me to pick her up and bang on her like the first time we met. I really wanted to do it, but it wasn't the right time. I knelt down and assisted her in picking up her towel, which I then handed to her."Tyler, I told you to stay downstairs. What exactly are you doing here?” She snapped, embarrassed."Is that my reward for assisting you in picking up your towel?""Please leave me alone; I'll be down in a heartbeat.""Quit acting like a child; you act as if I've never seen you naked before; dress up; I'm waiting.”I sat on the couch, my gaze locked on her. I was sweeping my

Madison’s POVTyler has always been a jerk, and he loves to play silly tricks. What was his mother doing at the same restaurant where we had arrived?"Did you know about this, Tyler, or is it purely coincidental?""My mother and I are having lunch.""Are you insane?" And you didn't think it was appropriate to inform me?”"It knew you wouldn’t come, I thought it wasn't necessary, so I didn't say.""I don't want to scold you here like a child, but I can't help myself because you're acting like one." You didn't think it was necessary to notify me that we were going to have lunch with your mother? Are you sure you're serious?”"It wasn't necessary, so I didn't say."Tyler lightly grasped my hand as I turned to leave, preventing me from advancing any farther."Please wait. I apologize for not informing you, but I knew you wouldn't come if I had. My mother requested to see me. I don't want to confront this alone, which is why I need you to come with me. Please do not go.""Are you out to hu
Thorns of the Heart Chapter 31
Tyler’s POVI knew my mom was up to no good when she asked me to join her for lunch out of the blues. The news hit me like a rock as I saw the way Maddy’s eyes opened widely. Her palms began to sweat in that short moment, and I wasn't the only one surprised.“What are you saying, mum? That doesn't make sense to me.”“I know it doesn't, but that is the only way out, and you cannot turn this down.“This is nonsense, mom. You both are hell bent on forcing me to get married to someone I do not even love. Brenda is an abusive and uncultured woman, I will not get married to her! Never!!! I do not care how much the contract is worth; I will not do it. And besides, are you forgetting the fact that I’m legally married?”“Get a divorce, I don’t care, you must do it! You do not have a choice! I won't allow your ego to ruin everything your dad has worked so hard for.”“Do you even care about me, Mum? All you ever do is cajole me to do things that only favour you both; you use me as bait each time
Thorns of the Heart Chapter 32
Madison’s POVMy heart was jumping really fast; I was so scared and Tyler noticed how nervous I was.“Maddy, is something wrong?”I couldn't answer Tyler either; I was just scared to take the call. I was trying to make up my mind for either good or bad news; it was either my mom is awake or she is dead. I wasn’t emotionally ready for the latter.“Your phone is ringing, Maddy; don't you want to take your call?"I finally had the courage to take the call. I closed my eyes and said a brief prayer."Hello, Maddy, how are you?”“I’m fine, Mrs. Rosaline.”“Your mom is awake!" Mrs Rosaline said.There was excitement in her voice; my mind was uplifted, my mind was at rest, and I stood up in great excitement.“OMG!!!! When did she wake up? Where is she now? Is the doctor attending to her?”“Your mom is still in her ward; she woke up a few minutes ago. And the doctor is here; I just thought to inform you first.”“I’m on my way; I'll call Andy and Gem.”I stood up and took my bag; I couldn't wai
Thorns of the Heart Chapter 33
Madison’s POV.“Calm down, Maddy; worrying won't make you find her.” Tyler said.“Calm down? You expect me to calm down? She is nowhere to be found and this place is almost empty. What will I tell my mom?”“You do not have to tell her anything, Maddy; she just got out of a coma. Do you want to send her back? Let’s just talk to a few people and see what information we can gather.”“I think we should involve the police, Tyler; I don’t want anything to happen to her. I am so scared.”“The police won't do anything; we have to wait for 24 hours before making a report. Let's just ask some more people; maybe they can give up useful information.”I asked around, and they pointed me to the host of the party, whose parents own the house. He took us upstairs, where there was less noise, so we could converse well.“Hello, my name is Madison and this is..."Tyler interrupted me before I could introduce him.“My name is Tyler Marshal, and I am her husband.I just rolled my eyes; he was doing too mu
Thorns of the Heart Chapter 34
Madison’s POV“What are you saying Maddy, how is that possible, isn’t she at home?” Andy exclaimed in shock. “Reduce your voice Andy, she left the house this morning to her friend’s place but when I texted her that Mum was awake, she told me she was at a party, that she couldn’t get a ride to the hospital, Tyler had to drive all the way but by the Time we got here her phone was off and no one has any information about her.”“This is not good Maddy, and when did Gem start attending parties, I thought she was supposed to be at her friend’s place, preparing for her exam.”“Please do not let mum hear of this, she will not be able to take the news.”“Where are you now?”“I’m still at the venue of the party, it’s empty already, I do not know what to do.”“Please come over to the hospital, mum is asking about you and Gem already, I don’t want her to get worried. ““I’ll be there soon.”I ended the call and used my hand to support my head, I was really worried, I hope nothing bad happened to
Thorns of the Heart Chapter 35
Madison’s POVWe didn't go beyond a kiss. We suddenly stopped when I saw his dick rising and my nipples became hard. It wasn't the right moment for us to make out. So we stopped, took a deep breath and Tyler continued driving.We got to the hospital and we made our way into my mother’s ward. I wasn't as tense as I was, and I wasn't nervous. Even though Gem was missing, I stayed calm, thanks to the kiss.We got in and I found Andy sitting outside my mom’s ward. We walked and approached him. I wasn't sure where Mrs. Rosaline would be but I guess she should be inside with my mum.“Good evening, sir.”Andy greeted Tyler politely before turning to greet me.“Do you have any useful information yet?”“No, Andy, all the people I asked didn't give us any useful information.”“This is scary Maddy; I know Gem, even though she is a handful, but she never stays this long without reaching out to me, even if it is with someone else's phone. I think we should file a missing person report.”“And who i
Thorns of the Heart Chapter 36
Madison’s POV“I gave birth to you, Maddy; you were the first human that popped out of me and made me a mother; I bounded with you closer than any of your siblings; I know when something is bothering you, you try to hide it in your heart but I can see through you the rate at which your heart beat changed and your palms are sweaty. What is wrong? You can talk to me.” My mum asked with a concerned look on her face.I sometimes hate the fact that my mother notices everything about me; she knows when I put up a fake smile and when something is bothering me. Sometimes it is good but not today. If I share what is bothering me, she might not be able to bear it; she might pass or something even worse.“I’m fine, mom; nothing is wrong with me; I am just happy and excited to be with you.”“Lies, I can feel the gaps in between your words. I know you are nervous, so tell me.”"It's nothing serious, mom, just me and Tyler having issues but we will be alright.”“Do you love him, Maddy?”Where did t

Thorns of the Heart Chapter 200
Tyler’s POVI was feeling a mix of joy and nervousness as I stood in front of the altar. Finally, the day Madison and I would be married was here. It was the moment I had been waiting for. I knew how important this event was, and my heart was racing with happiness as I waited for my bride.As I walked around in a classy and charming black suit, I couldn’t help but notice the little things that made my outfit special. The suit fit my body perfectly and hugged me in all the right places. The jacket had a slim fit that drew attention to my broad shoulders, and the pants were expertly made to make me look sharp and stylish.The fabric was a high-end mix of fine wool and silk. It had a light sheen that made the outfit look a little more glamorous. The suit’s black color was classic and timeless, which matched both my great taste and the seriousness of the event. A thin satin trim around the lapels added a modest but elegant touch that made the whole look better.A crisp white dress shirt t
Thorns of the Heart Chapter 199
Madison’s POVThree months laterAs Tyler and I entered the sleek, modern office building, a wave of anticipation and nervousness filled the air. The hallway seemed to stretch forever as we approached the glass doors leading to the boardroom. I could feel Tyler’s steady presence beside me, providing a reassuring anchor amid the storm of feelings brewing inside me.The moment we stepped into the meeting, all eyes turned towards us. The muted hum of talks stopped, replaced by the palpable tension that gripped the room. I kept a composed exterior, channeling the confidence Tyler had instilled in me throughout this ordeal.Leonard Byers, sitting at the head of the table, looked up from his papers, his expression shifting from indifference to shock as he registered my presence. The board members, accustomed to his authoritative demeanor, reflected his astonishment. Tyler and I moved confidently to an open space, ready to face the truth.“Miss Johnson,” Leonard stammered, trying to regain h
Thorns of the Heart Chapter 198
Madison’s POV“What’s going on in here?” my mom asked, my eyes narrowing as I took in the emotional environment.I quickly wiped away my tears, trying to calm myself. “Mom, we’re just talking,” I said.Tyler nodded in agreement, his eyes never leaving mine. “We’re having a heart-to-heart. I wanted to be honest with Madison about everything.”My mom’s eyes narrowed further, her worry escalating into frustration. “Honest conversation? Tyler, after everything that happened in the past, you think you can just waltz back into my daughter’s life and have a ‘heart-to-heart’? What gives you that right?”Tyler sighed, understanding the gravity of the situation. “Mrs. Anderson, I know I messed up in the past. I hurt Madison, and I take full blame for that. But people can change, and I want to make amends. I love your daughter, and I want to be there for her.”My mom crossed her arms, her anger obvious. “Change? Love? Tyler, you had your chance, and you blew it. You can’t just expect to walk bac
Thorns of the Heart Chapter 197
Tyler’s POVI reassured myself, “Headaches are not unusual after a head injury. We’ll monitor her closely and adjust the treatment as required. The goal is to make her as comfortable as possible during the healing process.”Once Madison’s pain medication was administered, she started to relax, with the sharp pain gradually subsiding. Doctor Bennet turned to Madison’s mother with a serious look.“Mrs. Byers, I would like to discuss some important issues with you. Can you please join me in my office? We can talk more freely there,” Doctor Bennet offered.Madison’s mother looked concerned but nodded. “Of course, doctor. I’ll be right there. Madison, I’ll be back soon. Try to get some rest, sweetheart,” she said, gently kissing her daughter’s face.As Mrs. Byers stepped out of the room with Doctor Bennet, I looked at them with interest. Doctor Bennet gave me a wink, signaling that he wanted to give me the chance to talk to Madison without any interruptions by her mom.I felt a mix of feel

Madison’s POVI could feel Madison's heavy gaze on me. Her eyes were looking for answers I didn't want to give. As I took a deep breath, I felt the inner conflict of wanting to be honest while also keeping her from any possible pain."Madison," I said first, carefully choosing my words, "I need to do something." I want to get the doctor to explain everything to you. I'll be back right away, all right?" I smiled at them to make them feel better, thinking that would help.Her face furrowed even more, and her eyes showed that she was suspicious. "Tyler, why do you look so scared? What do you not want to tell me?" My voice wavered with a mix of frustration and worry.I paused, my eyes locking onto hers. "It's not about being scared, Madison. I just believe it's best if the doctor explains the problem to you. They have all the knowledge, and I want you to hear it from a professional."She tried to sit up again, and there was a sense of urgency in her moves. "Tyler, you can't just leave me

Thorns of the Heart Chapter 194
Madison’s POVI lay on the narrow hospital bed, my eyes half-closed, trying to make sense of the fuzzy shapes around me. The sterile scent of the hospital room filled my nose, and the rhythmic beeping of machines provided a disconcerting soundtrack to my hazy thoughts. The pain on my side felt like a sharp jab, a constant reminder of something I couldn't quite grasp.I heard my mom's voice in the distance, a comforting murmur that reassured me, "You'll be fine, Madison. The doctors are taking care of you." It was a distant echo, like a lifeline connecting me to the world outside my foggy cocoon. I tried to focus on the words, to find solace in them, but the pain and dizziness were relentless.A nurse came in, her friendly face obscured by a mask, and checked the machines that surrounded me. "How are you feeling, sweetie?" the nurse asked, her voice a gentle melody. I managed a weak smile, attempting to convey that I was okay even though I wasn't entirely sure.The nurse adjusted some

Tyler’s POV"But what of her mum? How will I convince her I mean her daughter no harm?" I asked, my worry etched across my face. Dr. Bennett leaned back in his chair, considering the question. "Building trust with Madison's mother will also take time. It's crucial to be patient and show through your actions that your intentions are sincere. Avoid confrontations, be respectful, and give her the space she might need to process everything."I sighed, a mix of frustration and understanding. "I just don't want to be seen as the bad guy here. I genuinely care about Maddison, and I want her to have all the support she needs."Dr. Bennett nodded in agreement. "It's evident, Tyler. Just be yourself and focus on being a positive presence. Actions often speak louder than words, and with time, her mother may come to see your genuine concern for Maddison's well-being."Feeling a bit more assured, I nodded. "Thanks, Dr. Bennett. Your advice means a lot. I'll do my best to be patient and understandi
Thorns of the Heart Chapter 192
Tyler’s POVAs I approached Room 203, I took another deep breath, steeling myself for the upcoming conversation. I raised my hand, and with a tentative knock, I announced my presence.“Come in,” a voice called from within the room.I pushed the door open and entered, finding a comfortable-looking office with a desk cluttered with papers. Dr. Bennett, with his graying hair, looked up from his work, offering me a reassuring smile.“Tyler, finally you are here. Please, have a seat,” he gestured towards the chair across from his desk.I hesitated for a moment, feeling a mix of nervousness and relief as he took the offered seat. The chair creaked slightly under his weight as he settled in, glancing around the room at the diplomas and medical charts adorning the walls.“Thanks, Dr. Bennett,” I mumbled, shifting uncomfortably in his seat. “Sorry I’m late. Got a bit turned around in this place. It’s like a maze.”Dr. Bennett chuckled warmly, “No worries, Tyler. Hospitals can be confusing. I’m
