7Before I could click on the messages, the screen went black and showed no sign of life. “Shit!” I cursed in annoyance. I went to my room, fetched the charger to plug my phone in the switch, I sat on my bed and again my lower abdomen started hurting badly, I stood up and staggered towards the bathroom, I got in and the first I saw in the mirror was a bruise on my neck. “What the actual fuck!” I left shocked. It was like my eyes would come out of their sockets. I kept cursing and took off my shirt, The bruises which I didn’t want to call hickeys were all over my chest and stomach. I started panting heavily due to the horror these hickeys brought. “Oh My God,” I couldn’t control my watery eyes to flow down. And what would happen when Eliana would see it? Oh no, she wouldn’t see it, I can’t risk it. My teeth cluttered in fear. Liam, if he saw me having this, he would’ve killed me by now. After this thought, I went hysterical. I could feel terror balling up in me. I inhaled heavily

8“We’re starting with you, lovebird.” She raised her left eyebrow, plastering a smirk on her face. Don’t call me that, El! “Start what?” I counter-questioned hesitantly. I hoped she wouldn’t notice my slightly cracked voice. “How was the party for you? Banged a guy or came home sober?” she winked and started rocking me. I smiled faintly and lowered my gaze to the ground in shyness, I probably was blushing. “Look at this red mess!” she teased. She knew I became edgy from such other-guy-involved-questions. “No, nothing guys thing happened to me (or at least I don’t believe it) I… came home, sober!” I kinda tried to shoo her but she was planning to exaggerate longer -her face told me. This side of Eliana I had never liked. She always thinks pulling someone’s leg makes other people feel butterflies in the stomach but it’s totally the opposite of what I felt every time she did this with me. It was exasperating me. “Like I believe you. When did you reach home?” Okay, that’s where I lef

9 3 Days Later It had been the longest three days I had ever lived. These days were my nightmares, I cried, gave up, stood again, fell down and again held my broken pieces together from falling deeply under my eyes. I had been keenly conscious about my surroundings, more than I should’ve had. Everything that moved with me or every person as far as I could see seemed like a threat. I studied them if they meant to harm or stalking me; even if that was a disable man minding his own business. Wherever I went I felt like being chased along with getting precisely observed by some unseen force which denied to appear in front of me, Like someone’s eyes were constantly noticing my each and every movement. The first time I had this feeling was under Brandon’s penetrating gaze. That gaze which I couldn’t forget till today despite many days went.I hated this paranoia tricking on me, growing inside my head each passing day. First off, I only feared my husband, and now I started fearing everyon
The Dark Secrets Chapter 10
10I sipped my drink and raised my eyes to check out a couple sitting in front of me and making out without breaking the climax in the private cabin. I swear it had been 15 minutes we reached down the town’s expensive restaurant - afforded by these rich brats- called, ‘The Angels’ and I hadn’t seen Eliana and Ryan detaching from each other for a split second, they looked like two horny teenagers ready to have scandalous public sex. I straightway lowered my gaze and pushed my attention to something else like my wedding ring which I hadn’t taken off yet, and now I believed I should’ve taken action regarding it. I knew everything was over by this point because I didn’t bear strange physical harm which could be executed by Liam’s side. Of course, he had connections in secrets criminal networks, if he wanted me back it would’ve been a snap of finger thing for him for locating and abducting me from the streets of LA, I felt consuming after finding nothing else to think about other than

117:48 AM *Alarm Buzzer* I felt like a hammer hitting my head and my ears almost about to bleed, that alarm’s shrill voice was enough to wakeup neighbours too, I squinted my eyes to locate the clock after tapping my hand on the nightstand, finally, I hit the button and it stopped, I huffed with a foggy mind, “Stupid clock,” I didn’t sleep well last night because of that human who stood at the corner right after when a mysterious paper came out of my bag, I couldn’t eat properly nor I had the audacity to speak about it to Eliana, I had to deal with it alone, I cried in fear and shivered for my dear life and that’s how I dozed off to sleep.Everything rewinded in my mind and I rested on the bed until my mind reminded I had an interview in the head office to clear and I was running out of time, I flipped out of the bed and rushed to the bathroom, I did my business and took a quick shower, for my first day I chose professional attire to make a good impression of me - Yeah, that was im

12Brandon Grande had a son? This was news to me, a shocking one, “W-wait he has a son?” A bombshell was too obvious on my face, she turned around and about to chuckle hysterically on my palpable ‘pun’, perhaps? “Numbskull, don’t you know Brandon adopted his friend’s son after the boy’s parents died in a sudden car accident, he is his late best friend’s son and Mr. Grande cherishes him a lot, that’s why we all are standing here cause he advertised his urgent need for a nanny, even though he is interviewing the candidates personally for his adopted lad, aren’t you here for the boy?” She enquired, I felt a dumbo for a good minute, she jabbered out all of the stories while I stood there as a dumbstruck,“I… I’m here for a normal interview, I didn’t know about the boy nanny thing before,” I replied her with sceptical expressions, she narrowed her eyes on me, I knew what was coming next, something starts with a who, “Who appointed you for a normal interview today?” Like I assumed, her ex

13My mind was moving around the dates as to when I should meet the lawyer to file for divorce, It’s been almost a week and I hadn’t lived this much longer without his eyes on me. The feeling of being independent and not having someone to suppress you was new to me and I was grateful for each second of it. I would call the lawyer once I reached home, all the points to be discussed were roaming in my mind while walking back to the bus stop, it remained few miles away from me and I was constantly dodging my focus from what my sixth sense was triggering; someone is following you, Jenna. Look behind.I stayed straight until someone felt so close to me almost, I turned around and like always, there were just some kids playing in the park. I fastened my pace as much as heel allowed me, and with that, the heartbeat got triggered with I saw a shadow almost crossing my shadow, I turned my head to some degree and found out I wasn’t dreaming about the shadow, I panicked and literally darted int
The Dark Secrets Chapter 14
14I locked the main door of the apartment and leaned on the door, I was deep in thought of that stalker, who was he and how he knew about me so well? He even had information about my relationship with my husband, did that mean he kept tabs on me for a long time? I pushed the door and walked inside the kitchen, made a quick sandwich for myself and went to my bedroom. I threw my bag on the couch and freshened up myself. Changed my clothes into PJ’s and slipped under the covers, I gripped my laptop, turned it on and searched out for jobs. I was so frustrated by today’s session that having a specific designation was not my priority that time, I randomly searched for reasonable jobs for initial survival, the suitable options weren’t paying as handsome as being Brandon’s son’s Nanny but it was a ray of hope for me. I stayed till midnight and applied for jobs until I couldn’t do it anymore, I shut my laptop and went to the staring ceiling until I fall back to my fantasyland. I had a dream
