I need my wife....
LINDSEY'S POV
I sat in his car, facing outside I looked at the buildings the people, and it all looked like I was a prisoner. I could not stop myself from crying .even the thought of him sitting next to me made me sick. with all that he had done to me. I didn't bother to clean the tears off my face because they would not stop. It was a long silent journey and by the time we reached his Villa it was already dawn. I didn't reply to the servants that greeted me but ran to the room that was given to me. I went into the bathroom and without taking off my clothes let the water flow from my head over my body after opening the shower I could not feel my tears any longer but I knew they were there because they would not stop. I could not think of anything else to do after a few minutes. I ran out of the shower, I picked a bag of mine and checked for the sleeping pills that I had I opened them tears still flowing down my cheeks. I wondered whether the decision I was taking wasn't the best but it seemed like the only option I had to have peace of mind.
While I was still looking at the pills in my hands, the door opened to Riven. I hid the pills behind me but he looked suspicious so he came close. I told him not to come any close but he did not listen so I kept on extending backwards until I knocked the wall and they all fell from my grasp and scattered onto the ground. I watched his guess as it followed the bottle that fell from my hands .I quickly wanted to pick it but before I could hold it he got it before me. I looked at him as he read what was written on it. His face was not the usual indifferent one that I was used to, that showed no expression at anything that happened ,but this time around I saw his eyebrows rise while he read and he looked at me with that look that I had never seen him look at me with he took his time before speaking again his hands seemed uncomfortable while they held the bottle.
" What is this? "He asked me without looking at me.
" What were you trying to do?" He shouted at me. looking at me at that moment.
"It's none of your concern leave me alone ."I told him. I didn't know that he was so angry but I realized it when he came to me and held my chin lifting it up but his hands warm and abnormally shaking like something had happened to him which I could not tell.
"Were you trying to take this?" he asked again I turned away my gaze from his with all anger he threw the bottle to the ground and kicked it I had never seen him so pissed like that .I wouldn't have because I had never stayed with him.
At that moment someone else appeared at the door it was his sister, he looked at her then back at me he looked like a madman at the moment. I was already afraid only that I had no way of running. Yes I wanted to take some pills and sleep for some days without waking up to face the life I was living, to face him, what if people got to know me and addressed me as a gold digger like they usually do, what if his woman started plotting against me like they usually do in the dramas I watch. I was having all that on my head and it left me peaceless.
"Talk some sense into her or I might kill her myself today." he told his sister before banging the door had before he left, would he have killed me if his sister had not come? I kept on wondering. It was obvious he could not bear to loose his new toy that he was still interested in. His sister walked towards me slowly, she sat on the edge of the bed closer to where I was still standing. She seemed to notice what was on the ground and immediately picked up the pills before seeing where the bottle was
"Are these sleeping pills or?" She asked also shocked but I looked away.
" Oh my God we're you planning to.... " I looked away from her but tears were flowing down my cheeks.
" I am so sorry you are going through all this. I know you have no fault in all this and I am so sorry you are going through all this.All I want you to do is just don't try to do something like this again. I know I am not supposed to say this to you but I hope you try to understand my brother, he is not as bad as you think." She spoke holding my hands.
" Just stay away from me, you and your family, I don't want to have anything to do with you. What if it were you, would you be happy with what you are doing to me. So you want me to sit and smile. You think life revolves around you alone, what you want is done at the cost of other people's happiness. Maybe I didn't love Stuart but what if I did? So it wouldn't matter because it is your sister who matters. Don't think we are alike, we are not especially now. I don't want to have anything to do with you because with each day, the things you and your brother do make me to dislike your family more. Now leave please. " I told her having pulled my hands away from her.
" Okay, okay I will leave but you are being too rude. Anyways if you need anything and when you need someone to talk to, I am here. Don't try to harm yourself, your life is not yours alone Lindsey, you mean a lot to us." She spoke as she left.
Which alot I meant to them I didn't know. I moved back to the washroom and locked myself in .I wondered whether I would ever be happy again. I sat on the flow resting my head on my knees. I didn't know how I slept off but I woke up when I head movements In the room so I rushed to check only to find the servants carrying my things. Before I could ask them I saw Riven coming into the room.He was an exceptionally handsome, impeccably dressed in a bespoke black tuxedo that accentuated his commanding presence. His well-built, athletic frame gave him a strong and dignified appearance, while the perfectly tailored jacket sat elegantly across his shoulders. His crisp ivory shirt and neatly knotted bow tie conveyed timeless sophistication, complemented by polished cufflinks that caught the light. His meticulously styled hair framed a striking face, and his composed expression radiated confidence and quiet authority. Every detail of his appearance—from his immaculate attire to his graceful posture—exuded refinement, elegance, and effortless charisma.
If I didn't know how much of a devil he was I would have fallen in love at that moment.
" Come here!" He called me in a tone that didn't leak any emotion.i could not tell whether it was a command or request, whether I was safe or in trouble. I didn't dare move so he reached out and pulled me to follow him but I refused to move.
" Where are you taking me? Where are my things?" I questioned him.
" To our room, we can't be sleeping in separate rooms as a married couple. Especially now that I have to keep an eye on you!" He spoke like he was handing me a candy.
" But what do you take me for, child,a slave I don't understand what you think of me but I have failed to get where you get the right to do all this to me. And you still stand before me telling me to share a room with you." He waited for me to finish speaking and then lifted me off the ground taking me with him. I struggled but finally we arrived.
" I gave you freedom to have a room but you missed so I took it back and I would like you to know that I always get what I want no matter what,Unless I don't want..And you should know that what you have seen is nothing compared to what I can do, it will be better if you cooperate with me and don't get on my wrong side." At that moment I realized my life had ended. I was afraid of myself, if you'd asked me the truth, I was not doing well, my life was taken from me like I was paying from some sins I committed in my first life.
