FREYA__11* * He didn't exactly take me to my bedroom, he had only tossed me outside his office after he was done with me. I was left to wander the house like a broken doll. He must be confident that I wouldn't be able to leave, outside of the house must be heavily guarded. His final words after telling me to ready myself to meet his guests, had been for me to prepare something to eat, adding that the ugly statement about needing me to be healthy for conception. I didn't want to become pregnant for this monster. I wished to be infertile or something. I couldn't become pregnant after one time, right? The thought didn't give me any relief as I realized that he would continue to force himself on me until his aims were achieved. I wiped at my tears angrily, it didn't change anything. I didn't know why I suddenly looked up, perhaps it was because of the sensation of being watched. I was appalled when I spotted two cameras on the ceiling. He was probably watching me right now,

FREYA__ 12* *I dressed up in the clothes provided for me, the black strapless gown hugged my figure and stopped just below my knees. Even the undies suited me perfectly, the fact that he knew my exact size crept me out. I ran the comb through my thick brown hair until it shone, this simple action improved my mood slightly, under different circumstances, I would have been more excited to wear such a gorgeous dress. A sound on the door alerted me before the knob twisted, and here comes the devil. Our gaze clashed, my nervous ones meeting his void stare. He walked inside and I couldn't help but notice the black suit he was wearing. Was it only a coincidence that my dress was the same color? He didn't utter a word, his scorching gaze made my palms sweaty. I anxiously kept the brush on the table, unable to bear the deathly silence even for a second longer. "I got dressed as y_you wanted!" My voice trembled. "It's good to see that you're finally learning, Come with me."I foll

FREYA___13* *"Don't trust wherever she tells you, she can't help you." Angelo suddenly appeared. How did I miss his presence? He had also listened to my conversations with Vivian. "How do you know she can't help me? I think all she wants is Nikolas and she can have him." I queried. "That's exactly why you shouldn't trust her, she'd always lurked around even when her sister was married to him. I should warn you that she's crazy, she already hates you, and she would rather see you dead than help you." Angelo stared at my resigned expression, there was a softness in his eyes that made me just want to rely on him. "Even if you do manage to escape, you won't get far. I know Nikolas, he will hunt you down, and he will catch you. You will not only implicate yourself, but your family as well, and I'm sure you do not want that." I shuddered at his words, recalling how Nikolas had his men beat my father unconscious. "But you know I'm innocent, why can't you help me? He trusts you, you

NIKOLAS___14* *After the meeting when everyone had left, Angelo stayed behind. Nikolas was still tempted to ask him what his conversation with Freya this afternoon had been about and had taken the opportunity when they had both drank several glasses of alcohol, and the whiskey has started to kick. "She is innocent Nik, she told me how it happened and I believe her." His friend spoke drunkenly, then Angelo started to talk about how beautiful she was and his he couldn't believe Nikolas would hurt a woman like that. Nikolas's fist clenched around his glass of alcohol, a disturbing sensation settling in his chest. How could Angelo believe her when they had fully made their investigations? Just because she appeared innocent didn't mean she was. How had she gotten Angelo to believe her so quickly, was she throwing herself on his friend now? Rage simmered in his heart as he staggered to his feet. Angelo seemed to be unconscious of it. "She is my prisoner, I will do whatever I want

FREYA__15* * I gagged, heaving the entire contents of my stomach into the toilet. I rinsed my mouth from the bitter taste of bile and also splashed some water on my face. It seemed every time I vomited, I was suddenly relieved from this strange illness that occur only in the mornings. My palms clasped around my stomach, these illness has persisted for more than five days now. I didn't want to think about the possibility that lingered at the back of my mind. It had to be food poisoning, or perhaps the weather, since I'd been trapped in this mansion for god knows how long. For the past several weeks that went past, Nikolas had ensured that I took pregnancy tests, they had always turned out negative, and while I had been relieved, he had always seemed impatient and angry. He had always been there to ensure that I took the vitamin supplements he provided and his sexual activities increased tremendously. I had just begun to hope that I was infertile or that he and I were someho

FREYA__16* *The whole world was a lie. Love_Happiness_It was all an illusion. I might have had friends, and perhaps my parents must have loved me, but in these few days, I kept thinking that my old life must have been a dream. Now, all I felt was despair. I was constantly drowning, hate consumed my mind, spreading like wildfire through my veins. I hated him and even more, loathed his seed which was growing inside of me. My palms slowly caressed my stomach, there wasn't a difference. But I could feel it.And I despised its very existence. Maybe it was a relief that he was going to kill me as soon as I give birth to his monster baby. I would never get to see any of them again.A tear escaped from my eyes, onto the pillow as I turned to my side. I wanted relief from this constant pain in my chest, my heart ached like I was constantly being sliced by a wicked chainsaw. I felt worthless. I was even powerless to give myself death because he'd promised to kill everyone I

FREYA__17* *Weird things have been happening lately. Marianna was a lot more friendly. I couldn't believe it when she gifted me several books to read whenever I got bored. Even more shocking was when she brought me very expensive skincare brands after complaining that my skin appeared too dull which was probably attributed to the early phase of pregnancy. It was as though she was always waiting to get me whatever I wanted. The morning sickness was no joke, I vomited anything that touched my mouth. Most of the time, I ended up with a fever and severe headache. Perhaps this was the reason Nikolas took mercy upon me, I was no longer confined to the mansion, I was allowed to be outside for how ever long I wanted. Most relieving of all was that he'd never tried to touch me, he no longed appeared harsh all of the time whenever he spoke to me. I always wondered why the sudden change of attitude. Was it only due to my pregnancy? To make his unborn child comfortable? I didn't know why

FREYA 18* * My body jerked awake from the nightmare. He had succeeded in visiting my dreams again. I could still almost hear his cruel laughter. In the dream, I had given birth to a baby. He had snatched the infant from me and had produced a wicked-looking knife to slit my throat. My job was done, he was going to send me to hell. My fingers still trembled as I switched on the bedside lamp, causing light to flood the room. I palmed my abdomen through the silky materials of my nightie. Four weeks? Six weeks? How far along was I? The baby would continue to grow even though I didn't want it. If Nikolas killed me, the child would never know its mother. He would be born into this brutal world, void of love. Sympathy for both myself and the new life overwhelmed me. I couldn't save myself from this cruel fate, but it didn't have to suffer from my own misfortune. I would be doing it a favor if I got rid of it. With these crazy thoughts running through my mind, I pushed the covers a
