This was one of the most quiet rides Ruby had ever been on as she sniffled from time to time. Jaxon seemed to get her as well as he didn't bother her either. She curled up on the chair of the car in nothing but her dress, which was torn thanks to that Ape of a man, as well as Jaxon's jacket, which he'd shrugged off and given her on their way home.Ruby was over everything. She was tired physically and mentally and just wanted to go home. But what she mostly felt was irritation. She absolutely hated the way her skin was marred because of the way the man roughly handled her and she hated the smell most of all. Her skin still reeked of the man's scent and she nearly gagged if she thought about it too much.She couldn't also believe her sister had masterminded the whole plan and had really set her up to fail. How can someone be so heartless as to get their own sister kidnapped and almost raped?She wondered if she had ever truly known Kim because never in a million years would she have

The two days that had passed had felt like a week because everything seemed to be going slowly. The doctor had come, taken care of Ruby's bruises, and said she would recover nicely and wouldn't scar. He had also said that she was mostly fine and just had minor scratches and bruises. But some particular ones were prominent on her body.When the doctor told him, he felt like beating the man all over again. His jaw ticked, and he now slightly regretted why he didn't beat the man some more because, heavens knew, the man deserved every punch he got doubled over.It had been two days. Two days of him watching Ruby mope around the house. She had been recovering well, thankfully, he could see her bruises fade from a deep purple, and they were now slightly yellow. Aside from her physical injuries healing, he hadn't noticed much change in her behavior. He had asked the doctor who told him it was her way of coping and that she would go back to normal with time. But he didn't want to wait, he

Ruby’s tears flowed freely. The pain and anguish she felt was unbearable as she desperately held onto Jaxon. She felt like she was drowning in pain and he was the only thing keeping her afloat. At that moment, Jaxon was her anchor, and the heartache she felt almost went down a notch. She greedily inhaled his fresh scent as she buried her face in his chest. Jaxon ran his fingers through her hair as she cried in his arms. “I’m so sorry, it’s all my fault. I should have done better, fought harder and made a backup plan before leaving then all of this would not have happened.” Ruby softly mumbled and Jaxon shook his head in denial. “Nothing is your fault Gem. You are the victim, you did your best to defend yourself but they played dirty and there was no way you would have known.” Ruby fought to keep herself together as the weight of his words sank into her mind and a choked sob left her mouth. The memories of the bad experience threatened to consume her and she cried uncontrollably.

After everything Ruby had told him, Jaxon couldn't find it in his heart to stay angry at her. She was scared. It touched him that she thought to protect him by doing what Kim wanted even if it put her in danger. He wasn't going to deny that it pissed him off at how Kim could come between them even when she was absent.Now that he knew exactly what was plaguing his precious Gem, he was going to deal with the problem himself, Kim. It had taken a lot for Ruby to open up and tell him what was going on and he could basically see the strength sapped out of her.He helped her to the bathroom where he bathed her. As he dried her hair, a smile curved on his lips and he thought, if only Damon could see him now, playing nursemaid. He was sure Damon would never let him hear the end of it. He shook his head from his thoughts and brought his attention back to Ruby.He settled her into the dressing table in their room and decided to brush her hair out. Aside from not speaking and eating well for d

Morning came and Jaxon went about his role of playing nursemaid. When Ruby woke up, he helped her with her bath and left her to get dressed. He got ready himself, and together they went down the stairs to the kitchen for breakfast."So what do you want?" He asked her as he brought out a pan from the cupboard."Hmm, anything's fine." She told him with a shy smile. He smiled back. He could finally see his chirpy Ruby peaking through the sad exterior she'd had on for days. She was finally smiling again and color had come back to her cheeks. Her bruises had completely faded, and she didn't hurt anymore, which he was glad about."Anything?" He asked with a raised brow and her smile broadened. "Well... How about pancakes, eggs, and sausages with a side of fruit? Oh! And could you make that chamomile tea for me?" She asked and he smirked.Her appetite was back and she could eat well again. Ruby had always been one to have a hearty breakfast and she especially loved pancakes and eggs. He w

He had to take care of everything and face the problem head-on.The news was everywhere and people wanted an explanation.

If it was possible she wanted him to remain at home till everything died down butshe doubted if that would change anything.“It’s going to be fine Gem, I just need to go to the office and speak with the PR department toknow our next line of action. I’ll also need to speak to my lawyers and do something about your sister because she is getting out of hand.” Jaxon angrily said as he came out of the walk-in closet all dressed up for work.He could find her and kill her, but he knew Ruby still loved her stupid sister.

Ruby’s brows creased in concern, her gaze was fixed on the ceiling as she worried about Jaxon.Her lips pursed into a thin line of worry, her mind a jumbled mess of anxiety and speculations as she desperately tried to find a way to help.Ruby blamed herself for everything that was happening. If it wasn’t for her stupidity andcarelessness, Jaxon wouldn't be in this position where people were bad-mouthing him and insulting him. She blamed herself for being gullible, she regretted not bringing the contract to her marital home along with her other clothes. If only she had kept it safe, all these would not be happening. Kim would not have had the guts to blackmail her and set her up.Ruby thought about how stressed out Jaxon looked earlier. She didn’t even know how he wasdoing at the moment. She didn’t know if everything was okay at the office or if people had barged in to throw more hate comments at him.Jaxon was her life, she didn’t want anything to happen to him. Ruby desperately w

Jaxon's mind was running in circles as he pulled up at the house. He had told Ruby he would handle the press and he did just that when he had called Damon and told him to get all news of them off the press. They had succeeded at first when all articles were removed and things had gone quiet. But that was only for a few hours.What Jaxon wasn't capable of stopping was word of mouth. People still talked about the articles, and before he knew it, new, more outrageous articles and magazines had come up with a more scandalous version of the story. They had written something about Ruby being a prostitute and secret employee of his whom he had paid to keep other women off his back because he didn't actually want to get married and wanted to change women as often as he liked. And that was the least scandalous story of the bunch. The truth of the matter was in there somewhere but it had quickly been distorted with the amount of lies being added to the story. He had to give it to the press,
