I still couldn’t imagine what he wanted to do to me when he shouted again at the top of his voice “take those goddemn clothes off your body and better don’t waste my time!”
I never wanted Cassian to lay hands on me the second time and immediately I painstakingly took off my clothes and stared at Cassian in fright.
He stared at my nakedness for a short while then he said “climb on the bed”
Would he have s*x with me despite the fact I’m bleeding from my back as a result of the lashes he gave to me with his belt?
“Why is he acting this wickedly?”
“Why is he treating me like a nobody even if I was given to him to clear a loan?” I wondered aloud.
I immediately climb on the bed when he did clim on the bed too and commanded “open your legs”
I did as he commanded then, He zipped open his trouser and instructed “you better don’t stress me” again he whispered close to my left ear, “you know what to do; turn your baby on!”
After beating hell out of me do he still wanted to have s*x with me?
If it was all about this, then why was he being harsh on me from the beginning?
“Ummmm…. Ahhhh….” He hungrily exclaimed while having intimacy with me but stopped since I wasn’t responding at all.
He stared deep In my eyes and said “I know you love it when I go easy on you; but this time, I’ll definitely go rough with you and you know what? I bet you’ll never move on your feets ever again” he threatened.
“ Will you?” He asked but I didn’t replied as my heart was filled with hatred for his awkward behaviour.
“Fine…” He said when I cut him sharply “I will, I will!” I exclaimed in pains.
“Good” he said with a predatorial smirk on his lips.
I felt so weak and exhausted while Cassian was breathing heavily at the right side of the bed like someone who just completed a marathon.
Drops of blood was on the bed due to the open wounds from my bruised skin.
My head ached and I placed my hands on it when Cassian who was never ready to stop punishing me ordered me to leave his room.
I hesitated for a while but got up from the bed to make my leave though all my body ached.
I tried picking up my clothes but Cassian objected and insist I leave the room naked.
I felt so terrible but there was nothing I could do then I walked out of his room with lot of pains following every step I take.
I was just some few step away from his door when I collapsed on the ground and became unconscious.
I woke up some hours later and it was already daybreak.
I couldn’t imagined I survive last night as I look about the whole room. Some used strings were on the table and also some medication with a drip in my hands.
Just then, I recalled I left Cassian room naked. I raised the bedspread up to see for myself and felt relaxed seeing I wasn’t naked.
My whole body hurts though I prayed I’ll be fine in a short time.
Thinking about my ordeals, the door got open. A tall dark in complexion man came in and said “I’m Cassian doctor…”
“Get out!” I ordered pointing at the door.
“Mrs Cassian…”
“I’m Mariah not Cassian.” I said cutting him short.
“Okey ma’am but please…”
“Get out!” I ordered with annoyance written all over me.
“I know you’re very upset but Cassian is f*****g gonna kill me if I don’t attend to you please spare my life. He's an animal and he would never listen to any excuse I give” he explained.
I was taken aback by his explanation and so, I allowed him.
Cassian walked into the guest room almost immediately. Putting on a black suit, a red tie and a black shoe. He looked so innocent like a gentleman, but one every person most pray never to cross paths with.
He sat down on the bed where I was lying. He look around the whole room as though he was searching for something and then, he started first clearing his throat “hmm, hmm”
“Well, I don’t really know why you love bringing out this beast in me. I wasn’t even calling you last night to have dinner with you but rather, I only wanted to ask you a question” he started softly.
He brought out his cellphone, dialled a number and place the phone close to his ears and listened to it rings before the person he’s calling picked.
“Hello” he started.
“Sir” the voice called out from the background.
“I want you upstairs right now” Cassian said and ended the call.
Some minutes later, the guy he called came into the guestroom and prostrated before Cassian.
It was one of Cassian guards. Just as he entered Cassian questioned “what was the instruction I gave to you yesterday?”
“Never to let Mariah out of the house” he replied trembling.
“So why did you violated my orders?” Cassian asked.
“She told me she’d wanted to meet her doctor” he replied frightened.
“And you let her out?” Cassian asked with a disparaging smile on his lips.
Standing up from the bed, he shoved his both hands into his pocket then continued.
“Whose order are you meant to obey; her orders or mine?” He asked again, infuriated.
“I left him with no option” I cut in trying to intervene.
“I see” Cassian said and brought out a pistol from his suit and pulled the trigger, shooting his guard on the head. Turning to the doctor he said “you better clean up this mess!” Then made his leave.
I felt really shocked Cassian would ever kill anybody. Why was he acting this cold?
If he’s eventually passing through any form of depression why don’t him speak out or better seek advice from genuine sources.
Maybe, this is who he really is but was only pretending to be a better person since all this while. No wonder my stepmother objected Rachel or Rebecca should marry him.
I felt really pissed off by everything and wish there was a possible way out from the boredom.
I throwed out a thousand time althoughout the day as I felt so irritated by what happened earlier.
The next day Cassian went for a dinner party and locked me in the house all alone.
I decided that I was no longer gonna live in this dungeon as this devil of a husband had choosing to make my entire life a living hell.
Since the guestroom were I was, was lock, I felt there was no way out until I recalled I collected it’s spare key the day Cassian came home drunked. I checked inside the wardrobe and found the key there, then, I opened the door.
I paced back and forth trying to figure out a way to escape him and I tried to go to his room but as I reached the stairs a hand pushed me and I stumbled but couldn’t stop myself from falling.
I cried out as my stomach hurts a lot and I bleeding uncontrollably. I prayed I shouldn’t lose my unborn child when the maids came to my aid and took me to the car.
Cassian’s men weren’t aware of what was going on.
When I entered the car, I asked the maids who helped me out to leave immediately to avoid Cassian coming to know about it but they refused and insist they were coming with me.
I got into the car first and I look from behind to see if there was anybody seated at the back of the car the way my father did the night I tried escaping, but there was none. The gate was automatic and since Cassian isn’t back yet it would definitely be opened.
One amongst the maids offered to drive since I was bleeding, she speed out heading toward the gate when his men saw the car leaving and followed from behind. Immediately we came out she zoomed into the main road in haste heading to the hospital.
Unfortunately, as I tried to breathe the car fumbled upon a truck and the glass stabbed me deep within my chest. I tried to keep myself in balance but couldn’t. I knew I couldn’t make it so I gave up on life.
