Maya
I was sitting on the couch trying to process the fact that Dax, Julian, and Jack were dead. I was staring into space before Ryan dropped another bomb on me. He was smiling that I thought maybe this was all a silly joke.
“You… you want me to marry you?” I pointed at my chest.
Ryan“Don’t worry dear, I’m not beating you with the belt,” I spoke as she looked horrified and still not saying a word.The idea of asking Maya to marry me was spontaneous and genius. I wanted a good fuck after the shooting by the docks and I had retrieved Dax’s phone and saw calls and messages from her. I was looking for more information on the ri
MayaI was back, staring at the mirror this time cursing that monster Ryan. To say I hated him was a small fraction of how I felt about him. If I were a cartoon character, I would be red with horns and steam flaring from my ears. The bastard lied to me.I was naked, staring at my bruised body and a black eye, neck bruise and I refused to cry and give him the satisfaction of giving him
I have been imprisoned in this house for over a week and today was the engagement party where Ryan was going to announce the wedding date. The thought made me queasy and not to mention the endless abuse.“You look beautiful tonight,” Ryan skimmed his hand over my waist.“Thanks,” my voice cracked.
Ty“There you are, ” I turned, looking at my brother, “You know it’s rude to stalk someone’s bedroom.”“Not now, Tom. This is all your fault,” I pushed him on the wall whispering.
Maya“You did good,” I closed my eyes as he played with my breast whispering in my ear before biting my earlobe.Everyone had left and the house was less crowded. After my conversation with Ty, I had watched him come down the stairs and noticed he had bruised his knuckles. Tom tried to walk to him, but he shook his head in fury before walking out.
I was disappointed when we got in. I was looking at an empty room. I thought that he had my mother in this room and since he was being nice, I hoped I had a chance to see her again.“What is this place?” I finally spoke with disappointment in my eyes.“This is my safe place, ” he responded taking a moment to admire the place as if lost in thought.
After Ryan had shown me his scars, he has not laid a finger on me. I had relaxed a bit and gotten used to him. He worked late, but he was making time to have small talk with me. He was not there yet, but he was starting to see me as a person.Ryan came back from work early and told me that his father wanted to see us for dinner tonight. When he told me, I was sitting with the wedding planner making the final arrangements. He was busy to help that he had practically told me to figure all the plans out.
RyanI hated that my father had summoned me and Maya for dinner tonight. I had grabbed Maya’s hands and led her away from the fountain before her jaw almost dropped to the ground.“Ryan slowdown please,” she pleaded.
