Hawaii

MINUTES LATER

Xalia looked around nervously as they headed towards a plane, her husband walked with her alongside men dressed in suits. They stepped into the plane and a pilot walked to them.

“Where to sir?” He asked.

“Hawaii.” He replied and the pilot bowed before walking away, Xalia turned to him with a questioning look.

“I thought you said we are heading to New Jersey.”  

“What is a wedding without a honeymoon?”  He replied coldly and walked to a seat, he sat and Xalia looked around before slowly walking to take the seat next to him.

Her mind was still troubled about everything that was going on, she really needed to speak to Kyle, she didn't have her phone or any of her things with her.

“What about my things?” She asked as she slowly took a seat next to him, he was going through the documents she signed earlier. 

“They are here.”

“What about... “

“Shut up.” He cut her off and Xalia’s eyes widened in shock, he just shunned her. She bit her lip slightly and exhaled, how the hell did she get into this mess?

HOURS LATER 

AT NIGHT 

Xalia felt a soft tap on her cheeks and she slowly opened her eyes, she looked around and her eyes fell on a man, she frowned and it took her a few seconds to recall what has happened all day and the man next to her is her husband.

“If you are done thinking, get out of the plane.” He said snapping her out of her thoughts and standing up, he walked out and she exhaled. She slowly stood up and walked out, she met him talking to some men in suits and he looked back at her.

‘Isn't he going to wait for me?’ She thought as she walked closer to him, she caught up with him and the men bowed at him.

She looked around the runway and sighed, her gown was starting to make her uncomfortable, it was hard to walk in it. 

“Let's go.” He said and walked ahead of her.

“Ugh, can you slow down? It is hard to walk in this, you know.” She yelled and he ignored her, she groaned and held the dress up with her hands and trailed behind him.

They both got to a car and entered, Xalia rolled her eyes and turned to look out the window as the car moved.

They both didn't say a word to each other till they got to their destination, Xalia got out of the car and huffed, she was really getting frustrated in the dress. 

She noticed cars behind them and she turned to the house, it is a small house but it looks classy and pretty.

Men in black came out of the car carrying bags and they walked into the house, minutes later they came out, bowed to her husband and left, including the car that brought them. 

She looked at her husband and he walked into the house, she scoffed and followed, she finally got into the house and she breathed out.

‘Not bad.’ She thought as she slowly climbed the stairs, she saw the door to a room open and she walked in, she met him taking off his tuxedo and she bit her lip.

She really had a lot of questions for him but she doubted she could get a reply.

“Hmm, I… I... Where are my things?” She stuttered and he looked at her.

“In the next room.” He replied and took off his wristwatch and she nodded.

She turned to leave when she realised she doesn't even know the name of the man she is married to.

“What is your name?” 

He ran his hands through his hair and exhaled.

“Draven.” He replied and Xalia nodded.

“Draven, that’s a nice name.” She said but he ignored her, she tried to ask him more questions but she noticed he was busy going through his stuff, she slowly walked out of his room and headed to the room next to it.

She got in and met her things in the room, she looked around the room and was satisfied with the interior decor, she hurriedly took off her wedding gown and changed into something comfortable, she exhaled and fell on the king-sized bed, she tried to think about how her day went but it was cut short as she drifted to sleep.

*******

THE NEXT DAY

MORNING 

“I need everything to be ready before I get back.” Xalia heard a voice say in her sleep.

“Tell me the amount of the expenses, I will transfer all the amount you need.” She heard the same voice say and she slowly opened her eyes, she saw Draven tucking his phone in his pocket and she yawned.

She felt something heavy on her and she tried moving her body but she couldn't, she looked at her hands and she realised they were tied to the bed.

“What the fuck?” She muttered and turned back to Draven, he put his hands in his pants pocket and stared at her.

She looked at her legs and she noticed they were tied with a weird metal rod.

“What the fuck is all these?” She asked and tried freeing herself, she tried freeing her legs but the metal rod enhanced automatically and spread her legs apart and she whimpered in pain.

Her thighs became visible and her heart started to race, what the fuck is going on?

She is tied to a bed and in front of her is the man she knew yesterday and got married to him.

“I was hoping you would do that.” He said as he kept staring at her, Xalia stared back at him as a thousand thoughts ran through her mind.

‘Who the hell is he? A murderer? What is his connection with the McCalls?’ 

“That is a spreader bar, don't resist or it will get worse.”

“What the fuck is this all about and why the fuck am I tied to the bed?” She asked angrily 

“Don't worry, you will get what this is all about soon but quick question?” 

“What?”

“Draven Wade, does that ring a bell?” 

“Huh?”
