All Chapters of My Lover's Choice. A fight for love and redemption. : Chapter 71 - Chapter 80

TAYLOR MACKENZIEWhen Samantha said I'd be exhausted when she's done, I didn't think it would be as painful as it felt now. My back was hurting, so was my shoulders and fingers. I was quiet in the car as she drove me back to the garden where the tunnel was. "You good?" She asked and I nodded. "You're going to need to work hard and exercise everyday so your body can adapt to the stress and load you're giving it."I gave her a thumbs up and she led me to the tunnel. "Can you crawl?" She asked."Yeah, I'll try," I said. She bid me farewell and I found my way. I pushed myself until I slipped into my room unnoticed, being careful enough to avoid any unnecessary noise.I didn't strip any of my clothing but climbed on my bed collapsing onto it as my mind was still swirling with the training Samantha had made me go through. Well, that was past tense, I needed to get some sleep, no matter how little so that I could have a little energy before Mark would start his day by walking into my room

TAYLOR MACKENZIEIt was now evening after I locked myself in my room due to the attitude Mark showed me. I wouldn't lie, I was angry he yelled at me, he was an asshole for doing that. My stomach rumbled and I knew it was time to eat. I inhaled deeply and decided to open the door. However, before I could, it opened, displaying Mark, standing by the entrance. I rolled my eyes, I would have argued that I locked it but who was I kidding, Mark would surely have the keys to everywhere and everything, my life included. "What?""Dinner," he answered, showing me the covered food in the tray he carried."I'll pass," I made to close the door but he blocked it with his legs."Your stomach says otherwise, I could hear it from outside."I stared at him. "My problem.""Is that so?" He asked and opened the covered food. That was it, I lost my mind."Screw you!" I grabbed the food from him and rushed inside my room, eating like my life depended on it. Mark entered the room and closed the door before

MARK JAXON The day for the party came and I stood outside, waiting for Taylor and Mayor to arrive. Mayor was the first to arrive and he looked around, obviously wondering why Taylor wasn't here yet. "Where is she?" He asked, his eyes looking up the stairs. "Probably getting ready," I answered, following his gaze. "For how long? Go bring her down!" He ordered. "Yes sir," I nodded and turned to leave when I saw her. Taylor was approaching us wearing a breathtaking white gown that seemed to shimmer under the lights. I wouldn't lie, I was completely mesmerized by the vision of her. The fitted bodice hugged her curves in all the right places, accentuating her slender waist and full bust. Her hair was left on loose, cascading down her back. This woman was beautiful, radiant and her footsteps were with confidence and her full lips, painted with a soft pink lipstick. "So, how do I look?" She asked, smiling beautifully. Damn it, this woman would be the end of me. "Beautiful," Mayo

TAYLOR MACKENZIEI stood up and smiled. "I hope we meet again Dexter, I'm so loving your family," I said, ignoring the glare Mayor was giving to me. "You'll be invited to Sam's birthday party, over and over," Dexter said, all happy.I chuckled. "I will be honored, excuse me," I said and walked away.I opened the door and saw Mark, standing there. I ignored him and made to walk past him when he suddenly spoke. "Where are you going?" He asked.I stopped, turned and faced him. "To get fresh air, any problem?" I asked. "Isn't the air here fresh enough?" He asked."I asked, any problem?"He nodded. "Just be careful."I scoffed. "I am always-""Stop arguing, Taylor," he cut me.I frowned. "Whatever," I said and turned to go before stopping. "Caring doesn't suit you, have fun," I said and walked away. As I left, I made sure Mark wasn't following me before I snuck into the female restroom. I brought out my phone and Samantha spoke. "What's happening there Taylor?" She asked."Everything

TAYLOR MACKENZIEI was anxious all through the ride home, I didn't know if I could convince Mayor that I wasn't with the child. However, I had to try.The car pulled over and I got down without waiting for Mark to open the door from me. I didn't acknowledge him as I walked past him, heading straight to the house.Immediately I entered, Mayor was there, I inhaled deeply and approached him. "Tell me one thing."He looked up."Did you kill the baby and pretended he was missing, cause I know you killed his parents."He chuckled. "Why don't you tell me where you hid the child.""What are you talking about, I don't have the baby."He stood up immediately, promoting me to take a step backwards. "I hate liars.""I'm not lying.""The CCTV says otherwise."My heart missed a beat, there was a CCTV? I Inhaled deeply. "Really? Show me."He chuckled. "What should I do to you if I'm right?" "Kill me," I said, my voice coming out stronger than I imagined. "I told you already, I'm not resisting you a
