Shattered Trust

Maddison's POV

The moment I pushed the front door open and I stepped inside slowly my entire fingers started trembling. I pulled my fingers away from the door knob and walked further inside. I was ashamed of myself, and I had to tell Fernando the truth no matter what.

I won't be able to live with the guilt if I didn't tell him.

“Fernando?” I called out, my voice cracked.

“I’m home.” I called again but there was no answer.

I stiffened when I heard muffled noises from the bedroom, I gulped nervously preparing what to tell him. I took cautious steps as I climbed the stairs, my heart pounding against its cage as I neared our room.

But then I paused when I heard the unmistakable sound of a female voice, a very familiar one at that. I stiffened when I heard the sound of moans, my legs became wet and weak as I forced myself to walk forward.

My chest tightened painfully when I reached the bedroom door, my hands trembled so badly that I could barely hold the handle.

“Fernando…?” I whispered and I pushed the door open.

My heart dropped when Fernando was inside Emma, his hands gripping her waist. Their bodies moved together. Emma’s head was thrown back in pleasure.

Their clothes were scattered across the floor. The sheets were twisted and the room reeked of sweat and heat.

Emma was the first to see me and then she smirked. Fernando’s movements stopped slowly, annoyed, before he turned.

I covered my mouth, choking on a sound I did not recognize.

“What… what is going on?” I stuttered.

Fernando stood up casually; it was like he was not even ashamed. “Close the door.”

Emma scoffed. “You are early.”

I shook my head. “Here, in our home on our bed?”

Fernando rolled his eyes. “Stop exaggerating.”

“EXAGGERATING?” I screamed at the top of my lungs.

He bent to pick up his pants. “I did not plan for you to see this.”

Before  I could reply, Liam ran into the room with excitement. “Mommy!” He shouted.

I thought he was running to me until he ran past me to Emma and hugged her and my whole body froze.

Emma lifted him into her arms. “There you are, baby.”

I couldn't breathe. I pressed my hand against the wall so I could be able to stand. “Liam… sweetheart… come here.”

A lone tear dropped from my eyes when Liam didn't look at me.

“Mommy.” He said again touching Emma’s face.

Emma kissed his forehead and whispered to him. “Go sit outside for a bit, okay mommy will come.”

And then he came down from the bed, then ran out happily and my entire work crumbled.

Fernando then turned back to me, breaking the thick silence. “Don’t start crying.”

“You let him call her mummy?” I asked.

“He sees her more than you.”  He answered casually and my chest tightened.

I didn't know if I could ever heal from what Fernando did.

“You brought your Gamma here, you slept with her here, you let our son call her Mommy.”

He shrugged. “Liam feels safe with her.”

“And not with me?” I whispered.

“You are always tense always weak always scared what do you expect him to feel?” He said coldly and the tears fell.

“I am scared because of YOU!” My voice started shaking violently.

“You hurt me every day, Fernando you hit me you insult me you-”

“Don’t you dare raise your voice at me.”

My lips trembled. “Please don't not again.”I pleaded when I saw the way he was approaching me he wanted to beat me

“Then shut up and come here!” His voice increased and he raised his hand, Emma chuckled at the scene.

My body instinctively moved back. “Don’t touch me!” I cried.

Fernando didn't listen, instead he stepped forward and lunged at me. I dodged his hit, turned around and ran, bolting out of the room.

“Maddison!” Fernando shouted as he chased after me.

“You come back here, stupid woman, don't make me chase you!!” He growled.

I flew down the stairs, my breath shaking as I grabbed the railing to keep myself from falling. My legs were numb and my entire ribs started aching my lungs sealed together that I couldn't breathe.

I shut the door closed, Fernando growled and I screamed in fear, my entire vision blurred and my heart was pounding fast that I felt I would drop dead.

I bent slowly letting my wolf take over fastly That was the only way I could escape Fernando tonight. My body lurched forward as the shift began painfully I screamed as my bones shifted sharply.

My hands bent into paws and my spine stretched. My skin burned as fur pushed out my jaw cracked open into a muzzle.

The shift hurt badly, when the shift was complete, I ran the branches tore at my fur. The ground was rough under my paws. My breaths were loud and uneven. I couldn’t think, only run.

‘Run from him, run from them, run from the pain that wouldn’t stop crushing me.’

I reached the main road too fast. When I tried to stop I couldn’t and then I heard a loud screech of the tires dragging hard.

I looked up and the headlights were too close. I froze only for a second, but it was not enough.

The car hit me hard and lifted me off the ground. My body slammed against the hood, then I  rolled off with a heavy thud.

My vision dimmed and my breathing slowed. The next thing I heard was that the door slammed open and fast footsteps rushed toward me.

I heard the sound of a man's voice. “Hey! Can you hear me?!”

And then everything went black.
