All Chapters of Monster: Chapter 51 - Chapter 60

WinnieI was sitting near a window watching the city light from the room. It had been a week and Cassius had not shown up since our wedding night. I wondered if he would come or not. If he kept on ignoring me like that I would not be able to get in touch with Luther and Noelle. Biting into my lower lip I grabbed my phone and called Cassius. As usual, he picked it up in two rings and greeted me with loving words. “Hey, beautiful, what’s up?” His voice was cheerful and soothing. I liked it when he called me that. “I just had dinner. What about you?” I asked him. “I was in a meeting and heading home.” Home! That place was not his home. “Are you not coming over?” “Winnie,” he sighed and I heard the click of the car door in the background. “I’m busy now.” “It’s been a week. I miss you.” “I’m also missing you but I really have to sort things out first.” "What are things?" “I’d prefer not to talk about it,” he spoke sharply, making me frown. “That's fine, I guess.” I sighed and h

Winnie smirked when she listened to that news. Luther and Noelle were coming over. Oh my God! They were just coming to see her. She assumed Cassius had told them everything. He must have told them that he married her, and she was pregnant with his baby. Noelle’s face must be pleasurable to see. She felt joy rush inside her as she imagined Luther and Noelle’s shocked faces. They must be thinking about how Cassius did that to them. How could he betray them? He chose her over his shit family. Now, he told them the truth. He told them that she had become part of their family. “Um… Winnifred Spraggins. Nice to meet you, Noelle,” she said while pretending to shake Noelle’s hand while breaking into a laugh. She laughed, laughed, and laughed until tears gathered in her eyes and the very next moment she started crying. She sobbed harder, falling to the ground and clutching her tummy. She cried for her father, brother, and husband. “You’ll pay the consequences. You’ll pay for snatching my Ned,

“She doesn’t like me,” Winnie said to Cassius who was sitting next to her on the couch. It was the last day of the year and they were watching a movie. She placed her hand on his while resting her head on his shoulder. “Say something, Cassius.” "Hmm..." Cassius stared at the screen absentmindedly. He was lost in his own world.“Say something.” “Everything is going to be okay.” He sighed heavily and looked at her, giving her a small smile that didn’t reach his eyes. “Don’t worry I’ll handle everything and I’ll try to talk to them.” “But they disowned you,” Winnie said quietly, looking into his sad eyes. Cassius was upset and he looked like he hadn’t slept for days. He had dark circles under his eyes, his skin looked lifeless, his hair messy and his suit disorganized. Seeing Cassius in that condition Winnie was feeling bad for him. She wanted to do something to make him feel better but she didn’t know what to do. “I’m sorry.” “They’re family, they can’t do that to me. They have no c

Winnie was sleeping soundlessly when someone appeared in her room. He was wearing a black hoodie with a skull mask and staring at her. He stepped closer to her and didn’t take his eyes off her. “Winnie…” He whispered slowly and sweetly but she didn’t respond. “Winnie, sweetheart,” he said with a sneer. “Cassius, I’m sleepy,” Winnie groaned, turning to another side. A second later her snores were audible. The man smiled sinisterly, stepping toward her bed. Her white smooth skin was highlighted by the nightdress she was wearing. His hands were itching to touch her soft skin. He sat on the bed, the mattress dipping due to his weight. He leaned forward, moving his mouth near her ears. “Winnie, darling, it’s me…” And suddenly Winnie bolted upright, her eyes wide open to see an unfamiliar man on her bed. “Who…?” She gasped, pushing her body away from him. “Who are you?” “Don’t you remember me, darling?” The man laughed, moving closer to her. “How could you do this to me, baby? You’re re

Winnie stepped into the new house, looking around at the beautiful interior design and smelling the fresh painted walls. The furniture was traditional and new. The walls of the stairway were decorated with old art pieces and a family photo hung in the middle. With high-tech kitchen appliances, the kitchen was spacious and cosy. The living room was quiet and warm with a large sofa set and a rounded table in the living room. Just above the fireplace, she examined a picture of a beautiful lady hanging just above a fireplace. Scanning the frame of the lady she stepped closer to it. There was a little man standing next to a toddler who was grinning widely in the photograph. She instantly recognized that boy. It was Luther around ten or twelve years old with his little brother Cassius. She had never realised until she saw that frame how much the age difference between Luther and Cassius was. “Your room is ready,” Noelle announced, startling Winnie. Winnie slapped her hand against her che
