My feet got sore until I couldn't run again, I fell and rose again. I didn't pay attention to the blisters on my feet as I ran.
"Here she is. Do you think you can run forever? We got you at last!" A voice spat in the air grabbing my arms roughly and throwing my back on the floor. Sounds of footsteps walk closer to me.
"Tie and bring her here to me." I looked up in pain but to my surprise, I saw Adams William, Heir to the king of Icelandic.
The men dragged me away to where Adams William sat. "Now strip her" He ordered, his voice icy. He widened his chin as he watched them tear my clothes roughly revealing my tongs.
My eyes glistened with tears and I cried out, "No! Why would you do this to me!". Immediately, my chin suffered a blow while I spat out blood and he chuckled. He picked up the glass of rum that was beside him and took a sip while nodding his head and smiling.
He kicked me down on my knees and lifted his chin up and in a cackle, he said, "You want to know why? Since the first day I met you and since the moment you walked down that aisle and took the ring into your fingers I was never happy. You think I loved you? Your property and your father's wealth were what I wanted. I've killed them all. So no one would ever have to think of you."
My blood ceased to flow for a minute as he spoke and I pulled out the ring from my finger and threw it at his face the moment I heard that he killed my parents.
Forcing myself up the thugs pulled me down and one slammed my head with an unknown object. The rest of everything that happened was unknown to me.
I opened my eyes to see myself alone, in a pool of blood. As my eyes opened, I wondered, "What am I doing here?". At that point, my brain felt hazy and I couldn't remember anything that happened previously.
My eyes watched the trees that danced gracefully above my head and in a few minutes, flashes of the previous things that happened replayed in my head. "Fuck him!" I cried and began to crawl out of the thick forest where I found myself.
"Ugh!" I yelled in pain and crawled out. Luckily enough for me, I sighted the road from where I sat to rest under an oak tree. Forcing myself up, I staggered to the road after multiple falls.
As I sat there contemplating how I should get out of the forest, a car drove and stopped by my side. The door opened and a heel stepped out of the car, "Bring her in. She looks so weak! Adams needs to be killed." The lady said and two ladies who also came out of the car carried me up from the ground gently and put me into their car.
One of the ladies brought out cookies from her bag and stretched it to me, "Here have this." I got the cookies which she opened and handed over to me. "Who are these two?" I thought. Still in fear and shock.
"We are sorry about what happened and we are going to do everything to make sure that Adams goes down for what he did." The lady who sat by the wheel cursed as she turned back to look at me.
"I guess they are good. But who are they?" I thought.
After what seemed like an hour, they drove into a building. We all stepped out of the car and I was led into the house.
As I entered the living, I realized where I was. "Welcome home child" Mrs Flaw called immediately she saw me.
"How the fuck did I get here in the first place!" I screamed in my head and without a word to her, I was directed to a room which was prepared for me. In that room, I was made to take a cold shower.
While in the shower, tears rolled down my eyes, "I was in the hospital! I was carrying his baby! Why would he do this to me!" I cried as tears rolled down my eyes. I laid in the bathtub for a while but was called out by Jarvis, "You are wasting too much time In the shower!"
Immediately I heard her voice, I rinsed myself and wrapped myself around a towel. I opened the door and Jarvis mumbled, "I was bothered about you. Take this and eat."
I looked at the food that was dropped on the table in the room, "Why are they acting so nice? What is this family up to?" I thought as I took a scoop of the food in my mouth.
The Watson family was related to the Williams family. Long ago, the Watsons and Williams were just one thick bond of a kind. My husband, Addams was forced to marry a member of the Williams family which he refused. Addams swore over his life that he was never going to marry anyone except me.
At that moment, I and Addams were already dating and cooked up in love not until the night when he asked me to kill the second child which I had for him by aborting.
At first, I thought it was a joke because why would he do that? He never asked me to abort the other three children which I bore for him then why now?
Upon my refusal his attitude towards me changed, he prevented me from seeing my kids and prevented me sometimes from eating.
One day, I decided to run away because the calm and handsome man whom I loved was now a monster. I escaped from the house successfully but he caught me and chased me into the woods.
My family, which is the Smiths, according to Addams, has been killed by him and I am the only surviving one now in the Watsons family whom my parents never liked.
As I toyed with the food, Jarvis whom I thought had left the room snapped me out of my reverie. "What are you thinking? Addams? You shouldn't think about him for now. Be grateful that you are alive and here."
