-One and a half years later-

Saying goodbye was harder than it seemed. The time I spent with him made me love my life with Jacques, even if it was a loveless marriage.

Two weeks after our second-year anniversary, we registered our marriage at the nearest district office. It was an intricate process as it involved us getting clearance from the embassy of our home country. However, Jacques settled it easily and in addition, he even threw us a special celebration. We restricted the private party to just the two of us, and it was a secret from everyone we knew. 

In my heart, I still wondered if it all didn’t come up to this, would I be walking down the aisle with Syl instead?

Maybe then, yes. But now, it would never happen in this lifetime. It was a truth I found it

  • Her Eternal Prison   Part 3 Chapter 3

    I thought about Jacques’ words to me as I spent the next three days in seclusion at the safe house. Lenard frequently sent people to visit me and ensure I was fine, and knowing he wasn’t coming, I just felt gladder. The discomfort in my body from sharing a bed with the person who hurt me in the past, plus how I was being used by Kaiser for his needs and then, slept with my ex, tended to make me dizzy.I had to strike eventually. Lenard and Lee Jung were why I was in this sorry state. If not for what happened to me, I would be living a happy blissful life with Syl now as his woman. Thinking of Syl, I recalled his dismayed face after we had intercourse. He wasn’t in love. I was just a fragment of his past affection for the easygoing and spirited Piper who was the best buddy of Sherry Summers.Not to forget that I now wished she was dead.

    “What happened? Why am I here?”I fought the blanket, struggling to move from the bed. I don’t remember what happened after Lee Jung threatened to record the video. All I wanted was to get away from him, to escape. He had pointed a knife at my neck to make me do his bidding, gloating at me like how Kaiser Klef used a gun to force me to have sex with him.I am now in an unfamiliar bed. Some young men and women are attending to me. A girl wipes my forehead with a damp cloth and another scans my temperature with an infrared gun. Some are watching over me, and two men are guarding the door.“Is anyone listening? Why am I here?” I raised my voice, wringing my hands to get attention. The girl wiping my forehead cowers and retreats, stammering nervously from a distance.“Miss Piper, please don’t get mad. You were found in a disarray in a ditch, soaked to the skin and unconscious. You were also running a high fever.”I scrutinised the girl, unsure whether to believe her words. Lee Jung had us

    Syl looked at me sympathetically as I told him about the agony I suffered at Kaiser’s hands, starting from the interview up to bedding his brother-in-law and then being sent to serve Lenard Lee. “I shouldn’t have trusted him.” I said, not allowing myself to shed any tears. “But I did, and I made the wrong choice.” “Piper,” he heaved a long sigh and took me into a bear hug. “I thought you were going to hate me for all I did to you then.” My heart numbed. If only I knew the truth, would things have turned out differently? I was still infertile and could never give him biological children. This was why I had left him in the first place, and things could never go back to the past. “I don’t hate you, Syl,” I answered after a short pause. “I just know we… can’t.” “Why not, Piper? After how I opened up to you about my secret of being an undercover agent? You still can’t trust me? Are you still mad about how I treated you then?” “It’s been so long, Syl. Of course, I can’t be still angry a

    “What’s up? You’ve been quiet all day.”Lenard Lee glanced at me as I finished my food silently. My lower abdomen hurt like hell. I don’t know what beast the man I loved before had turned into after he consummated his relationship with Erica Gao. I regretted moving here, even though it was where Kaiser was allegedly from. What I thought to be a new start between us, turned out to be a total nightmare.Even my tormentor had turned into a different person overnight. I was clueless about what was happening, and why he had a strange side to him, but it wasn’t until the last two months that I discovered his considerateness. He had been rather harsh when Kaiser sent me there, but it wasn’t until I discovered he was seeing therapy himself, that I realised what was the reason behind his change of personality. His sweetness was starting to dissolve the hate I had for him, although I still feel inclined to have my revenge. I felt lost like I no longer had my sense of direction. From the day Ka

    I was discharged over the weekend. Lenard sent his men to get me, and I reflected on Kaiser’s words during the silent car journey. “We can torture her further. You just need to know you’re worth more than them. And how to execute your plan right.” Would he say the same about his wife? I watched the man guarding beside me flip his newspaper. There was an article about Kaiser Klef and Erica Gao. On the outside, they looked like any happy couple. But Kaiser hadn’t been going home for weeks now, and Erica probably was sick somewhere. I hoped that she was being kept at some mental institution because she deserved it. Not that I was any happier doing what I did. Lenard had been nice to me while I was in hospital but it didn’t change the fact I was not going to be his wife. I was his possession and sex slave. A lover was just a fancy word considering it was with someone who raped and broke me. I could never bring myself to be a lover of that monster. “I hope you’re better now that that j

    After Kaiser left, I stayed for one more day in the motel, staring aimlessly towards the ceiling before I finally found the courage to return. It didn’t take me long before Lenard Lee’s men captured me and took me back to see him.I didn’t say a thing. They were very polite, but when I passed the main hall flanked by his best guards, what bothered me was not the sight of blood, but a woman being disrespected. The irony was this was the same woman who had lost me in the streets, Freya. Some cuts ran over her thighs and dried bloodstains over her back.But noticing how the men pleasured themselves with her body was more than I could stand. It was bringing back the traumatic past in me. I whirled around, screaming as I relived how Lenard’s men had used me like an object three years ago. How they shared with me and treated me like I was garbage like I deserved it. I hadn’t asked to be captured. I hadn’t asked to be raped. I just couldn’t fight back at that time because of the weakness in
