Cassie: Kayden had left me once again, broken and having lost something dear to me. Last time it was my unborn child, and now it was the trust I had in my husband. I hated how he could easily do that to me. I hated how easily he could get away with it. Davis looked worse for wear. His entire face was bloody and the parts of his face which weren't swollen yet would swell up pretty soon and get bruised if nothing was done as soon as possible. He winced by the ground, his hands hanging loosely at his sides, in pain but unable to free himself from it. I waited for the feeling of compassion to come but it didn't. I just kept watching him with no hint of pity on my face and at a loss for what to do or say. All I could think of were the accusations Kayden leveled at him. I found it difficult but not impossible to connect the man shaking in front of me to the cold heartless man Kayden had described. While I remained unmoved by the sight of my grieving husband, I suddenly felt a wave of g

Cassie: At once, a wave of anger at every one of them flashed through me. So Kayden had people spying on me. And of all people, it just had to be Don he used, the person I was dumb enough to think was a trustworthy person. I should have seen the signs that day from the way he had treated the girl who claimed to be his girlfriend, but like the naive person I was, I had taken his side. “What do you want?” I asked him after a while, unable to say anything else. I didn't understand why he would agree to help Davis, right after Kayden’s men had roughed him up since they worked together. Perhaps, he didn't know about that part. Regardless, it didn't make any difference if he knew or not. He had the guts to look surprised at my question. “What do you mean?” “You came when I called and you helped us out. Why did you bother doing all of that? Is that part of your grand plan with Kayden?” “What the hell are you even talking about?” His unjustified anger was pissing me off. “Is that wha

Davis opened his lips to say something, but no words came out. I rubbed his head and shushed him, begging him not to speak or cause himself any more pain. He whimpered against me, trying to tell me something, but I only hugged him and let him know I was no longer mad at him. Finally believing me, he allowed himself to relax in my bosom. The doctor watched us with interest from the side of the door and his unwavering stare soon became uncomfortable. At first, his concern for us had been welcome, but now it only made me feel uneasy. After everything I had gone through at the hands of all the people around me, no one could blame me for being unable to trust anyone. He caught me staring back and smiled, before walking up to us. “If you're not comfortable here, I can refer him to a better ward, since his case is no longer an emergency.” I agreed, hoping the new ward would give us some privacy both from the doctor and the chaotic confusion going on around us. It ended up being just as go

Davis seemed to be getting better and better after about a week passed, and his wounds began to heal up pretty quickly. I rarely went back to my house but stayed by his side and sometimes even shared the big bed with him at night. Lisa began to get worried when she only heard from me and not Davis, but by the time she realized something was really amiss, she was already back in California. Once Davis could speak again, I convinced him to speak with her and he did. He was very relieved I hadn't told anyone about his condition. I couldn't believe he was more worried about his reputation after he had been beaten up by four men than he was about actually getting better. After a few days at the hospital, I offered to take over some of the things the nurses did for him, like wrapping and unwrapping his bandages, changing his sheets, cleaning him up, and making sure he took his pills. Rest assured he absolutely hated it at first and blatantly refused me seeing him like that, but when I di

"So tell me everything about Michigan!" Gloria squealed and placed her hands under her chin, giving me all her attention once again. I told her everything except my meeting with Kayden and his involvement in my husband's injury. "So how did the master convince you to come back to him? I wish I could have been there to witness it all." I was very tempted to tell her everything because she was just that easy to talk to, but I had to be really careful. Not only were the circumstances something I wanted to keep stashed away from my memory forever, but I wasn't ready to spill yet. So, I stuck to telling her the good sides and cutting out everything that could potentially make my story painful. "That's so beautiful," she said. "I just feel bad because you had to suffer so much at first. You cut off communication from everyone. The master and your father and even the guards were so worried." "Yeah," I muttered when something she said caught my attention. "What makes you think I had to su

"When you left, I thought I would lose my mind,” he said, his previously amused expression turning serious. “I'm so happy you agreed to come back with me.” He held my hand tenderly. “Thank you.” “Anytime,” I said, smiling. The chicken soup was almost finished by now, so I kept it away by the side of the bed. “Let's go see a movie,” I told him, pulling him up with me to the movie room. “Right now?” he whined, holding his bent waist. “What's wrong with this place?” “It's not romantic enough.” I shrugged and his eyes widened. He stood up immediately, standing straighter than I had ever seen him since his injury. “Nothing is going to happen so don't get too excited,” I said when I realized the reason for his excitement. He pressed his lips together in protest, but followed me without another word. The movie room looked smaller than I remembered. Most of the time I was here, I had been either drunk, depressed, or both so perhaps that contributed to how I viewed it now. I pulled the

It was the third day since I returned to California, and Gloria was teaching me how to prepare her chicken soup recipe. To say I was confused would be an understatement. No matter how many times she showed me how to do it, I always ended up messing something up. I saw the frustration she masked behind a tight smile as she encouraged me, knowing if we could exchange places she would have cursed me out.It had been three days since my return here and I had not stepped out of the house ever since. Somehow, I didn't notice. I wasn't a social butterfly, so apart from work and a few other necessary tasks I had to do in the past, I rarely ever had any reason to step out of the house in the first place. IThe solace being in the house brought was great, enjoyable even. I was never bored for a second because I had convinced Davis to remain with me for at least a whole week so he could fully recover before going back to work and he had reluctantly agreed. I spent almost every waking moment wit

“Are you leaving?” Gloria asked me as I moved to my room and began to dress up. “You asked me to answer the phone and I did,” I said. “This is the result of answering the phone.” “OK,” she said, standing by the door and watching me. I pulled down two dresses from the closet and raised them both at arm’s length to determine which one I would wear. “The red one seems fine,” Gloria told me. I pressed my eyelids together. All of this, something about it was getting on my nerves. “I didn't ask you,” I said, facing her squarely and she looked hurt. “You can leave. I know how to dress myself and I don't need your help.”“Oh, I…I’m sorry,” she said, but she didn't leave. I kept my hands on my waist and watched her for a whole minute or two and she had the guts to look uncomfortable. “Sorry, I know it's not my place but I know your father to some extent.” “OK?” I prodded impatiently, wondering where she was going with this unsolicited information. “I know you both have your differenc

At that moment, I was filled with so much hatred for my mother, for what she had done to the man she had vowed to spend forever with. How selfish could she be? “It'll be okay,” I told him, awkwardly reaching out to pat his shaking back but backing out at the last second. I didn't have that kind of relationship with my dad, unfortunately. He kept his head turned down for several more minutes and I waited for him to cry it out. I was mad at my mother for leaving my father, but I was also disappointed in her for leaving me as well. Something this life-changing had happened and she never bothered to reach out to me, even if it happened to be by text message. “It hasn't been, but I believe you,” he said finally, raising his head and giving me a weak smile. Apart from his red-tinted eyes, there were no other signs he had been crying. “Let's discuss something nicer,” he said, tapping the chair and sitting up straight. “How does it feel to be back?” “Great,” I replied honestly. “It’s gre

I rolled my eyes. I was tired of hearing the same word, ‘safe’ and having everyone tell me who I was safe with and who I wasn't with. First Davis didn't think I was safe with Kayden then Kayden didn't think I was safe with Davis and now my dad of all people was telling me I wasn't safe with my own husband. I didn't act surprised or offended. I stared at him and waited for him to continue. That was not the reaction he had expected. “I'm serious, Cassie. I know you just got back together with him but if I had known that was the plan, I would have stopped you long before.” “Ok, and?” I asked him, getting irritated. He sighed. “I know you think he loves you but he really doesn't. He still needs you for the same reason he married you in the first place. The reason in the contract you don't want to read. I can get it for you if you like…” He started to get up, probably to go in and bring out the contract which I had begged him to let me see in the past but he had refused me. “Can you j
