Move in with me

ELISA'S POVIt hurts so bad, yet when I felt myself in a warm embrace it made me want to melt away, I don't know to explain the feeling.I would drift in and out of consciousness once in a while to hear the desperate voice pleading for me to stay alive and not to leave.My brain was too hazy for me to make out who's voice it was, but I could tell it was not Derrick's voice for sure.Soon the voice went quiet, everywhere was still and peaceful till I heard my father's angry voice.After much struggle, I managed to open my eyes to see the white roof above me, I am probably in a hospital.Thank goodness.Relief washed over me the moment I realized that I was no longer chained up by that man I called my husband."M...om?" I called out in a croaked voice, her expression lighting up the moment she saw me staring at her.She's so adorable, I thought as she rambled on how I should have taken guards with me, none of that mattered now, I got the papers signed. Wait, I got them signed but it fe

Dream

"What are you trying to say?" My dad inquired coming over to my front to shield me from Damon."I plan to marry Elisa, with her ex crazy behavior, who knows the next move he'll make, you shouldn't be dragged into this as her parents, she should stay with me."I glanced at Dad to see his face twisting in both frustration and anger, he was probably conflicted on what to do."Dad, he is right." I said to him softly, as I recollected my mother's reaction just now, maybe staying with Damon might put her heart at ease.After all, to them, Damon and I are getting married because of mutual affection and understanding."Elisa." My dad called out clearly disagreeing.I just shrugged then turned to Damon giving him a smile, "I'll move in with you, but after our engagement banquet.""Okay then." He agreed, "I'll take my leave now." With that announcement, Damon turned around and left.What a strange man..."Elisa are you sure this is what you want?" Dad asked me, using his very rare soft tone."Y

I'm getting engaged

ELISA"Are you okay?" Derrick asked in a calm voice, making me smile a bit."I'm fine, it's just a night mare." I replied brushing off the nasty dream, Derrick would not go that far."Okay, go back to sleep." He said looking ready to tuck me back in bed but I furrowed my brows."No, I feel like taking a walk." I stated , ready to stand up on my feet when he held me down."You can't keep doing this, I want to go out." We weren't even married yet and he is already acting this way, maybe I should reconsider our deal.But if I don't marry him, who else can I trust well enough to get married to, Dad would not hand me the company except I remarry."I know, I wanted to get a wheelchair, Doctor said bed rest for two days, it's still not up yet." Damon explained in a soft voice pecking my forehead before leaving the room.I stared at the door in shock, my hand on my forehead, why did he seem so soft and nice?Damon is my friend yes, but I mostly talk and he listens, if that man happens to talk

Debt

DERRICK I stared at the papers before me feeling flabbergasted.How come? I'm pretty sure Eli said she had cleared all my student loan while she was still working.Why are all the papers demanding payment here? Is this some kind of trick by Eli?Is she threatening me? The thought made me squeeze the papers in anger."How dare she?" I yelled, hitting my fist on the center table.My head turned at the sound of something breaking."Can't you do things right?" I sneered seeing Mira standing here with a tray and broken glass at her feet."I'm sorry you startled me." She said softly bending down to pick the shards of glass."So are you saying it's my fault?" I asked feeling irritated."Derrick, what the hell are you doing treating the mother of your child like this?" My mother came out of nowhere scolding me."You should go rest up, I'll do this instead." She said to Mira urging her to sit on the couch before clearing up the mess and going into the kitchen to bring out a new set of fruit j

Power

DERRICKThe man crouched down a bit, making me push back my body, using my arm as support.The other men stopped hitting me but still crowded me, I could see it in their faces, this man commanded them.Why the hell is he targeting me?"Just a kick on your injury and you're already reduced to this? Pathetic."Hearing those words, my blood boiled, I am a man with a huge ego, and this man was obviously looking down on me.If not for my injury I could have shown him some manners."Well, I don't care for how weak you are." The man shrugged, stretching his hand out for the men in the back and someone placed a stack of documents in his palm."I'll give you the grace of three whole months to pay back your debt if you sign these." He added in a cold voice.I stared at his cold eyes, gulping in fear, something told me I could not refuse this offer even if I wanted to."And why will I want to do that?" I asked not wanting to come off as desperate."Really?" The man scoffed glancing at my bleedin

Engagement ceremony

ELISAI was instructed by my mom to wait in the room while she built the suspense.My entrance will be epic she said.I didn't want to argue seeing how excited she was with everything.But I can't keep waiting here, I'm getting bored out of my mind.Sighing, I brought out my laptop that I managed to sneak up here.I scrolled through some documents that was sent to me in relation to the company, after my introduction to the shareholders, Dad gave me back, the position of a director.So I've been busy with work the moment I got discharged from the hospital.Dad didn't care that much but mom threw a tantrum as she was worried about my health, hence the reason why I had to sneak my laptop into the room.If she manages to catch me right now working she would probably lose it completely.A soft knock on the door distracted me from my work, me thinking it was mom hurriedly hid my laptop and stood up to answer the door but I only saw an envelope laying there on the floor with no one in sight.

Delusional

ELISASuddenly, a pull jerked me away from Damon's embrace and I looked up to see Derrick's furious face."What the hell are you doing here?" I inquired feeling irritated, the events that happened that day recounting in my head."Shut up." Derrick growled making my twitch my eyes, I struggled to get out of his hold but he held on tight.Being a woman who is much weaker than him there's nothing much I can do.Guests were starting to murmur wondering what is going on.Oh no, I glanced around the room in search of my dad, this can not affect his opinion about me."Let Eli go." Damon demanded calmly stepping forward, making me sigh with relief."Do you know you are about to get engaged to a married woman?" Derrick snickered his grip on me tightening even harder."What?""The Gilbert's heiress is married?""I thought she went abroad go study."The questions of the guest flew into my ears making my eyes constrict, no, there's no way I'm letting my image get ruined by this man.Taking his di

Childlessness

ELISASoon the party was over, everyone already left, including Damon, I told mom and dad to go sleep while I headed to the attic humming a tone, drumming my fingers on the stairs that led downstairs.A smile played on my lips as I pushed the door open to see Derrick and Mira chained on the floor like the dogs they were."You bitch! Not only are you cheating on me, you lied about your identity and made us live in poverty." Derrick spat the moment he saw me making fake a smile at him as I picked up the bat resting on the wall.I guess that's the conclusion his pesky brain can come up with.See, the thing is I really wanted to let Derrick of by just firing him.If I had let my anger get the best of me, I would have done something extremely bad.Not that my parents would stop me or anything, but there's something about crossing the line, once you do, there's no going back."You know, it's been 2 weeks now, but there's a question I keep asking myself, why in hell's name did I fall in love

Moving

ELISA"Dad?" I called out nervously.He can't find out, what if he sees me as unfit.Instead of responding father just squared his eyes at me, then slowly his gaze... Softened?"These past few years must have been hard on you." Father said easing my heart.Suddenly my nose felt itchy, his hands outstretched and pulled me close, hugging me.Maybe it's due to the fact that my father rarely shows concern like this which made my high wall get broken, or just because I've held it in for too long."It's okay, you're getting married to Damon, does he know this?" He asked in an emotionless voice, tucking one hand into his pocket as his other hand patted my back gently."He knows." I sniffed, readjusting my posture.It's okay to show weakness but not for too long I guess."If he tries to do anything outside marriage, tell me, I'll handle it myself." Father stated with a dead pan expression.In other words, if something indeed happens with Damon as Derrick said, the other woman and child might

Cheating

DERRICK Mira managed to get us an invitation to the engagement ceremony, with immediate effect I prepared appropriate outfits we would wear to the event.I stared at the large mansion before me, my jaw lowered in awe.The rich are just amazing, imagine owning such a mass property."Remember, we are just friends, we don't know what move we have to pull in there, so it's best to introduce ourselves as friends just Incase, your bump isn't showing that much so luck is in our side."I said to Mira once more before walked into the massive compound.The Gilbert's decided to hold the party at their home since it's also their daughter's welcome party.Too bad she's getting engaged, if not I could have probably used my charms to seduce her.I don't like being associated with women that are superior to me, both Mira and The Gilbert's daughter.Mira has only survived so far because she's meek enough and obeys my every command, as for woman with the power of the Gilbert family, it would be no su
