THE NEXT DAY
Audrey heard strange sounds in her sleep and she opened her eyes, she looked around and she saw the maids cleaning her room, she sighed in relief and fell back on the bed, a maid noticed she was awake and she walked towards her.
“Good morning ma’am.” She greeted and Audrey nodded in response.
“Ma'am you need to get ready, Mr. Robbin is expecting you in a few minutes.” The maid said and Audrey sat up with a confused look.
“Why?”
“I have no idea ma’am but you have to get ready.”
“Whatever.” She sighed and stood up, she walked into the bathroom and the maids trailed behind her.
“Woah, where are you guys heading to?” She asked.
“To bathe you, ma’am.”
“Well, I believe I am not a child.” She scoffed and slammed the door in their faces, she signed and stared at herself in the mirror.
“What the hell am I doing?” She muttered as she looked at the ring on her finger, she took in a deep breath and ran her hands through her hair.
“Fuck, I don't want this.” She said as she started to break down, she took the ring off and threw it at the wall, she sat on the floor and started to cry.
Why isn't she thinking this through? Her husband will be so worried about her now, her parents, her best friends, everyone will be so worried.
“Ma’am, are you okay?” She heard the maids ask and she realized she has been crying out loud.
“Yes.” She replied and sat up, she slowly took off her dress and walked into the shower.
Audrey walked out of the bathroom and the maids bowed at her, her eyes drifted to the bed and she saw a lot of dresses on it.
“You can pick your choice ma’am.” A maid said and she sighed before walking towards the bed.
*******
Audrey walked down the stairs dressed in a black short gown, her hair was packed into a ponytail and she looked stunning.She got down the stairs and her eyes fell on Damien, dressed in a tuxedo and looking elegant. He was sitting with his legs crossed and he was going through his phone, he looked up at her and she felt her heart stop beating, his eyes were intimidating and she couldn't help but admire his looks.
He stood up and walked towards her, Audrey remained on a spot and kept watching him, she kept wondering how a person could be so wonderfully made.
“Ready?” He asked and she snapped out of her thoughts.
“Hmm, yeah, yes I am.” She replied and he stared at her, she wondered if something was on her face and she touched it but realized nothing was on it.
“Wha... What?” She asked and he didn't give her a response.
Audrey felt uncomfortable and she looked away from him.
“Let’s go.” He said and he walked ahead of her, she trailed behind him and they both walked out of the house.
They got into the car and Audrey glanced at the chauffeur as he drove out of the mansion before turning to Damien.
“Where are we heading to?” She asked.
“A restaurant, just to take care of a little business.”
“Why take care of a business at a restaurant? Don't you have a company?” She asked and he turned to her, his expression was obvious that he doesn't want to have a conversation but Audrey was so curious and she couldn't help it.
“It's a business that you take care of at a restaurant.” He replied and looked away from her.
“So why do I have to go with you?” She questioned further and she heard him growl silently, she felt scared by his act but didn't show it.
“Because everyone else is going to be there with their wife.” He replied and she nodded, his eyes suddenly drifted to her finger and he frowned.
“Where is it?” He asked staring at her fingers.
“Where is what?” Audrey asked back confused.
“Your ring, where is it?” He asked and she stared at her hand, she gasped and turned to him.
“I... “
“You took it off? You weren't supposed to take it off!” He yelled at her and she flinched.
“Am sorry, I... “
“Don't even dare.” He cut her off and she kept quiet immediately.
“Turn the car around.” He ordered the chauffeur.
“Yes sir.”
“Am sorry.” She whispered and he ignored her, his silence made Audrey terrified and tears started to cloud her eyes.
How the hell did she forget to put it back on?
They got back to the mansion in minutes and he turned to her.
“Go get it.” He ordered and she rushed out of the car, she ran into the mansion and in less than a minute she was in her room.
She entered the bathroom and started to look for it, she searched for minutes and couldn't find it.
“Oh God, where is it?” She muttered and walked out of the bathroom, she froze seeing Damien sitting on her bed.
“Did you find it?” He asked and walked towards her.
“No... I couldn't find it.” She muttered and he nodded.
“Am... Am sorry.” She apologized and he nodded, Audrey was surprised by his actions, he didn't look angry or frustrated about it.
“I will... “ Audrey trailed off as he suddenly held her neck and pinned her to the wall.
“Damien.” She gasped and held his hands as he choked her.
“There is one thing I hate the most out of all things I hate, and that is if someone messes with me. What do I look like to you? A joke? Do you think all of this is a joke?” He asked angrily and tears rolled out of Audrey’s eyes.
She couldn't understand how she was feeling at the moment, is it pain? Or fear?
“Don't be deceived by all you see Audrey, life is going to be hard for you from now but it might not be, as long as you don't defy me.” He said and let go of her, she fell to the floor and started to cough.
“Meet me back in the car in a minute, you don't want to keep your husband waiting.” He said and stood in front of her mirror, he adjusted his tuxedo, Audrey kept coughing and crying but he cared less, he glanced at her and rolled his eyes before walking towards the door.
“I will be waiting Mrs. Robbin.” He added before walking out of the door.
Audrey stood up hurriedly when she realized her minute will be up soon, she coughed and wiped her tears as she ran out of her room and down the stairs. She got outside of the house and rushed into the car, she didn't turn to look at Damien but she felt his eyes on her as she breathed heavily. “Right on time.” He muttered and the driver drove out of the compound, Audrey felt nervous and she squeezed her fingers into a fist, she breathed carefully not to try to upset him.She never knew he could act that way, he had seemed so cool and nice until that moment.“Mrs. Robbin,” Damien called and Audrey didn't give him a response, she was lost in thought.“Mrs. Robbin.” He called again but louder this time and she snapped out of her thoughts and turned to him in fear.“Ye... Yes?” She replied in fear and turned to him, he suddenly held her hand and creased it, Audrey looked at him surprised. Wasn't this the same man that pinned her to the wall and choked her? Why is he trying to calm her do
“Thank you.” Audrey said nervously as they appreciated her, she walked out of the room with Damien and she sighed in relief.“I told you not to feel intimidated.” Damien said as they headed out of the restaurant. “Am sorry, I just couldn't help it.” She replied and he didn't say another word. They both enter the car and Audrey’s stomach suddenly grumbled, Damien turned to her and she looked away embarrassed.“Are you hungry?”“No.” She lied but her stomach failed her by grumbling again.“You haven't had breakfast.” “No, it's fine.” “Well, I have other places to be and we can't wait at the restaurant, you will eat when you get home okay?”“Yeah, thank you.” She replied without turning to him, she still felt embarrassed and she felt like hiding herself far away from him. The cat suddenly stopped minutes later and she turned to Damien, they weren't home yet so why did they stop?“I am getting off here, the chauffeur will take you home.” “Where are you going?” “I have work to do.”
They got to the dining and their meals were dished already, they sat next to each other and both started eating.Audrey ate slowly as she tried not to make any mistake that can make him hurt her again. “Audrey.” Damien called and she turned to him.“Yes?” “Tell me about your ex-husband.” He said and she gulped, ex-husband? Well, she has no choice but to agree to it at this point, she doesn't remember being divorced.“Am waiting.” He added and she snapped out of her thoughts.“Oh, yeah. His name is Charles Williams and we have been married for two years.”“No kids?” He asked as he ate. Audrey froze as she remembered her not being able to give birth was one of the basic problems she had with Charles.“Oh, you are barren?” He asked and a tear rolled down her eyes.“Hmm, I... I... We both agreed not to have a child yet.” She lied and she heard him groan.“Is that why he hits you?”“He doesn't.” She lied again.“Yes he does, no man in his right senses should hit a lady.” He said and turn
Audrey paced around the room and cried, why did she have to do that? She just got herself into a huge mess.She should have just accepted the fact that she is stuck here for ninety days, why the hell did she make that phone call?The door to her room suddenly opened revealing Damien and she froze.“Yes, Mrs. Robbin? You called 911.” Damien said and walked towards her slowly.“I... I... ““Are you okay? Why are you crying?” “Am sorry.” She apologized in tears and he sighed.“You called 911, why did you call the number if you weren't in an emergency?”“I... I thought it was the cops.” She replied he moved closer to her, but she couldn't move because she was too scared to.“Why did you call the cops?” “Nothing, am sorry. Please don't hurt me.” She cried.“I won't if you give me a good reason why you called 911.”“I... I wanted to get help.”“From what?” “You kidnapped me.” She replied and Damien paused.“Well, the contract doesn't say so. We are legally married so why call the cops?”
“What?” Audrey asked confused and he rolled his eyes.“Just watch.” He said and she sighed before turning to the stage, Audrey watched with interest and wondered what was going to happen. If this man is all about having sex with her then why go through all these processes?“Get up.” He ordered and the girl did immediately, he untied her hands and she moaned, he dragged her to a pole and tied her hands to it, she winced in pain and Audrey turned to look at everyone in the room, they seemed to be enjoying the show.“Kneel.” He ordered her and she knelt immediately, he took off his jeans and Audrey looked away.“Watch it,” Damien whispered and she slowly turned back to the stage, her lips were slightly open in shock as she watched the guy force his cock into her mouth, Audrey turned away again but Damien suddenly squeezed her hand and she winced in pain. Clyde glanced at them and he noticed Damien was forcing Audrey to watch it. “I don't feel comfortable watching it.” Audrey whimpered
Damien met Audrey in the car waiting for him, she looked away from him immediately as he entered the car. “Head to Amigos.” Damien ordered the chauffeur.“Yes sir.” He replied and Audrey looked at Damien.“Where is Amigos? And why are we going there?” Audrey asked and Damien ignored her.“Come on, Damien, I want to go home.” “You will.” “So why are we going to Amigos? What is that place?”“I don't have a reason to answer you, you will see it for yourself when we get there.” He replied and she sighed, she felt unsatisfied with the reply she got but she decided to keep quiet about it. The car finally stopped in front of a restaurant and she saw the name.“Oh, Amigos is a restaurant.” She said and Damien ignored her as he got down, she also got down and walked to him.“We haven't had dinner yet, that is why we are here. Happy now?” He asked and she rolled her eyes.“Did you just roll your eyes at me?” He asked angrily.“Yes, and am sorry. I didn't know why I did that.” She apologize
“What?” Audrey yelled as he stood up.“What?” He asked back and she stood in front of him as he tried to walk away.“Are you trying to say you aren't going to eat that food?” She asked staring into his eyes.“Yes, I already told you, I lost my appetite.” He replied and tried to walk away again but she stopped him, Damien was surprised by her sudden confidence but decided not to show it.“Damien, I woke up early and I spent hours making those meals and you just said you lost your appetite?” She asked and tears were rushing to her eyes.“Are you going to cry because I don't want to eat?”“No, it is because I spent hours preparing it and you won't even have a taste of it, it's not fair.” “You can cry all you want, but still not interested.” He said and walked away, Audrey sighed and tears rolled out of her eyes, what a waste of effort. She turned to the meal and sighed, she looked around and she saw some maids peeping.“You guys can have it if you want.” She said and walked away from t
“Damien!” She yelled and rushed after him, she met him at the stairs and he ignored her, she blocked his path when they got to the hallway and he sighed.“What do you want Audrey?” He asked and sighed.“I want to know what you want to... “ She trailed off as she felt a sharp pain in her stomach, she winced in pain and fell to the floor.“Are you okay?” Damien asked calmly as he stared at her, he didn't look scared or worried as she winced in pain.“My stomach hurts.” She replied and he rolled his eyes.“It's noon already and you skipped breakfast, what do you expect?” He asked and stretched his hand towards her.“Come on.” Audrey slowly took his hand and he pulled her up, he held her hand and they both walked down the stairs.They got to the dining and the maids already prepared lunch, they sat next to each other and Audrey felt annoyed.He wouldn't eat her food but he would eat the maid’s food. Such a jerk.“You skipped breakfast because I rejected your meal,” Damien said as she slo
