All Chapters of A Monster's Mute Bride.: Chapter 51 - Chapter 60

Ella Williamson...The first thing I did the moment I woke up was drag my third suitcase to my new working space.I have to be honest, I woke up a bit too early because I was too excited. Even Elijah wasn't up. I had to slowly get out of his hold to make my way to the walk in closet, but I had a feeling that my movement might have waken him up.I wanted to throw myself in to my painting and forget about the complications of the past few days.I really didn't want to go to the lunch Elizabeth invited me to. The last thing I wanted to do was sit around with a bunch of strangers and pretend like their attention doesn't make me sweat.That, and the fact that Elizabeth was changing a lot was another reason I didn't want to go.I set up my art studio and emptied my third suitcase. Once everything was in place, I was ready to work.I stood near the large window, admiring the beauty the garden provided. It truly was the best spot for me, except I couldn't think about what I sh

I watched Cilvia leave with confusion written all over my face. Something about that woman really made me feel unease.Reaching in to my handbag, I took out my phone and looked at the video she sent me.I saw that it was a ten minute long video and there was no way I was going to stand in the bathroom to watch it.I thought about leaving the video alone. Something told me that nothing good could come from watching it.Alas, I disappointedly lost the battle against my curiosity. Letting out a sigh, I walked over to the last stall and stepped in. After closing the door, I sat down on the closed lid and looked down at my phone.Before I could open the video, I heard the door open and a few high heels clicked in to the bathroom before it closed."It's tense out there." One of the younger wives commented."Tell me about it." Another one added. "I wouldn't have come if I knew Cilvia would be here. She's scary.""I know right." A third wife sighed. "I thought today would be an easy lunch. I

Elijah Smith...I couldn't wait for the meeting to be over. Heck, I couldn't wait for the entire day to be over so I could go and see my wife.Ella was quickly becoming an addiction of mine, one I didn't want to get rid of.She was a constant thought of mine. I found myself wondering what she was doing, if she was in her art studio painting, if she was in our room taking a nap, if she was in the garden looking at the beautiful flowers and taking a deep breath from their scents, or if she was in the dining room enjoying a meal or a snack.Ninety nine percent of my brain was occupied by her, and I didn't mind. I liked thinking about her the entire day. She some how managed to calm me in stressful situations. She was becoming a medicine to my poisoned blood and goodness do I love it.I did my best to concentrate on the meeting. While I was in the meeting, the mirrored phone buzzed in my pocket, but I didn't want to reach for it.I can survive for a few more hours without

Cane and I sat in a tense silence as he drove to Elijah's Mansion. Cane hasn't said a word since he found me. He looked angry, angry enough to swallow me whole, chew me up until I was nothing but a bag of bones and spit me right out again.If Cane was this angry, I couldn't image how angry Elijah would be."What were you thinking?" Cane suddenly scolded, startling the life out of me. "Did you honestly think walking out of the restaurant without letting me know was a good idea?"I glared at Cane, who was side eyeing me as well."I did let you know." I sighed with anger."Yeah, well if I didn't give you a reply to your text, it meant that I didn't see it. So no, Ella. You didn't let me know." He yelled in a fit of angry again.Tearing my eyes off of him, I looked out of the window, refusing to let him scold me as if I was a child. It wasn't entirely my fault."I don't care what happened in that restaurant. You should not have walked out on your own. I have a responsibility to keep you

Ella Williamson...Elijah stared at me for a few seconds without giving me an answer to my question. He looked like he was debating something within himself.He finally let out a sigh before he nodded his head."Yes. I knew. Cane was the one who found the video." He replied."How did Cane find the video?" I wrote down.Elijah gave me a small smile."He has his own ways." He commented. "I knew you would hate to see the video, which was why I didn't want to give you the flash."I remembered the black flash on Elijah's nightstand and wondered if that was what he was talking about."But of course, Cilvia had to get involved." He added."She did me a favour." I wrote down, bring a frown to Elijah's face."How is that?" He asked.I thought about it for a while."Things are not what they seem. Cilvia showed me that today." I wrote down.Everything she said to me in the bathroom terrified me. But after taking the rest of the day to paint and really be alone with myself, I realized that she was
