"Why are you doing this to me?" Dede asked almost in tears but Alex kissed her without replying and his hands began to explore her body.Tears streamed down Dede's face and she never responded to Alex's kisses. She stood there with her hands hanging by her side like a doll. He moved her to the bed and pushed her onto the bed. Dede just lay there on the bed looking a bit pale."Are you ill or something?" Alex asked with genuine concern seeing she didn't look okay but Dede did not reply. He was unbuttoning his shirt but paused halfway and touched her forehead, she didn't have a fever but she looked pale. Just then there was a knock on the door and Alex went to answer it. Brian strode in and Dede wondered what he was doing there."I invited him for the fun. Hope you don't mind," Alex said and Brian walked to the bedside wearing a shirt with two buttons opened over black trousers. Dede pulled herself up staring at the two men standing in the room close to bed the bedside with eyes widen

"She is on her own. I have already sent you the hospital location. Find her and end her," Alex instructed and ended the call. Dede, left the hospital holding a credit card in her hand. The only access to her money was in the bank Bryson opened for her. She had no idea how much she even had in that account and what she could do with it but she knew she needed a roof over her head. She remembered the shelter home she stayed in when she arrived in the state and decided to go back there. This is where life has brought her. Just yesterday, she had it all. Married to a a very handsome reliable man, but again, her body stature, the burden of her curse had reduced her to nothing. "Perhaps if I didn't have such a seducing body figure, I would be a victim to any man's pleasure," Dede thought as she looked around for a cab. "Going somewhere ma'am," a man sitting in a cab asked staring at Dede outside his car window."Yes," Dede replied seeing it was a cab.She quickly gave the man the locatio

A couple of days passed and everything seemed to be normal as no incident of kidnap, attempted rape, or verbal abuse was recorded. Bryson appeared to have moved on with his life occupying himself with loads of work and ignoring everyone including Melissa who came around but never got even ten seconds of Bryson's time."Mum, he is worse," Melissa complained on the phone. "What were you expecting? A warm hug and kisses plus a tour of Paris?" Rebecca chidded. "The man never loved you from the beginning. You were just suitable for his image on the screen before you messed everything up with plastic surgeries. I can't even personally recognize you without your voice," she added and Melissa started fuming."Is that what you can say to me, your only child?" Melissa questioned."No, it is my way of bringing you to reality and asking you to be patient. Don't expect him to show you love, warm and give you attention. You want him so be ready to take him in whatever condition he is in. What matte

The shocked family sat in the living room trying to comprehend what had just happened. The servant saw the judge and his people off while Melissa stood there holding the marriage certificate in her hand."What was that?" Rebecca asked. "Well, this is the craziest marriage ceremony I have ever witnessed since I was born," James commented "And the weirdest," Brian added. "And the strangest," Janet submitted."And the most awkward," Jacob added."Uncomprehendable," Rebecca added her voice."Well, if you are all done finding a sense of humour in this, I have a husband I need to understand," Melissa snapped and walked out of the living room heading in the direction Bryson went with evidence of anger in every step she took."Okay, we wanted Bryson to marry Melissa before her belly starts to show and that has been done. I guess we will be on our way back to our home," Jacob said with a sigh. "I agree. What is important is they are officially married. We can plan a celebration for Melissa

In the morning, Dede woke up with a terrible headache. She lay in bed with her hand on her head, trying to recall the previous day's events. She gasped and quickly lifted the blanket to check if her clothes were intact. She breathed a sigh of relief seeing she was still in her clothes. She rushed to the bathroom when the morning sickness hit her. She emptied her gut into the pot kneeling in front of the pot. She sat on the floor after feeling exhausted. She sat down for a while as she suddenly felt dizzy. She rested her head in her palm feeling soured all over. At Bryson's mansion, he was up and ready for work. Melissa had no idea when he returned home but he was already up and ready to leave for work."Bryson, you have to speak with me at one point you know. You can't just ignore me like that. I am your wife for crying out loud," Melissa yelled but Bryson just pulled his phone out to make a call completely ignoring her. Melissa out of frustration snatched the phone from his hand an
