The tension in the room reached a new level. As Nicholas looked at the strange expression on Ash's face, the predatory look in her eyes, the anxiety took on added meaning as nothing could distract them from the heightened air of the pretend attraction between them; And then her father , the presence of this man who seemed to wield a power of control over the whole family inciting in him fear , fear that consumed him as he stood within his reach, his raw masculinity barely concealed behind the refined attire he wore.
He moved closer to her, standing right in front of her and trapped in his gaze she was aware of the strength in his clearly defined body.“As I said before I went away I have some quite serious concerns over your attitude, I mean towards our relationship , which I know we addressed not only when I came to see you but also subsequently when you were drunk. I told you that I believed our union could well be of great use to me,especAt 7:40pm Betty stood looking out of her window. She had left the office early and taxied home so she could get ready for her fiance coming to collect her. She had done as he asked and was naked underneath her big black overcoat. The only thing she had had to worry about was making sure that her make-up was perfect. So she didn’t feel so bare she had chosen a simple set of small diamond earrings and a bright red lipstick as her accessories, with a simple small black clutch. As the clock ticked next to her she felt her nerves start to kick in. She couldn’t wait to see him again. As she stood at her open window and saw the stretched blacked out car pull round the corner she knew it was him. She thought , but today he bought a different whip . The light in her street was perfect and it lit up the road making it look gold, the blossom from the trees was in full bloom as the limo crawled slowly to a stop in front of her building the back window slowly went down. Betty felt on the e
" Why are you doing this to me ." Loveth asked angrily when she woke up from the long sleep she had been subjected to . Sitting right in front of her was Ash and Wesley and two masked men . She was chained to the chair she was made to sit on . Her was rumpled and messy .She looked from Ash to Wesley And then someone else was in the room . she saw the old woman she had earlier seen on her first day in his house staring at her with disgust ." Wesley please let me go ." Loveth shouted loudly and Ash slapped her cheek immediately" ifyou don't stop yelling I am going to have to go harsh on you , no one is going to save you here . No one ." she repeated as she dragged Loveth head closer by her hair .Tears fell from Loveth's eyes as they laughed at her ." you are going to regret this ." she said as she spat out blood from her mouth . She was bleeding from the slap Ash gave her on her face and crying at the same time ." You really think I will let you ruin
" Papa, you’re supposed to catch me!” the small boy exclaimed, toddling toward his father’s long form stretched on the grass.Nicholas smiled lazily at the dark-haired child who stood above him. Named Raphael, their son possessed an unending supply of energy and a vocabulary that far outstripped the average three-year-old. Young Raphael loved to talk, which was hardly a surprise when one considered his parentage. “Son, I’ve spent the better part of an hour playing chase with you,” Nicholas said. “Let an old man have a few minutes of rest.”“But I’m not finished yet!”With a sudden laugh, Nicholas seized the boy and pulled him down for a game of roll-and-tickle.Lifting her gaze from the papers in her lap, Loveth watched the pair play.Daniel and Daniella played with bubbles a little bit far away . They were spending the hottest part of the summer at her inherited estate, a place so exquisitely landscaped that it could have been the subject of a painting by Rubens. All it
‘’ Honestly you need to quit drinking Loveth. The last time you drank, you almost made out with the club's DJ. Now it might be the security or cleaner . I need to be somewhere but I am afraid to leave you here all alone .‘’Elizabeth Morgan , Loveth best friend said as she snatched the glass of wine from her quickly ‘’ I am not drunk , I am fine Betty, I swear , you need to give me back my drink .‘’Loveth replied sluggishly as she snatched back the glass of wine from Betty . ‘’ I really have to leave. Can you please stop drinking already and let's get out of here , you are going to make me never come out to drink with you again Loveth . ’’Betty said as she drags her friend from her seat angrily while Loveth restrained from leaving staring drunkenly at a man siting opposite her." Wait ! That man over there has been grinning at me , I think he likes me right ? Be
Loveth woke up to the greatest shock of her life. She screamed as she realized she was as naked as the day she was born. She tried to move and realized she was chained to a bed covered with a thick blanket . As she struggled with the chain to set herself free , she felt pains on her hands and legs‘’ somebody help me please , is anybody there ? please help .‘’she screamed at the top of her voice and continued to struggle with the chain with fear and tears in her eyes .‘’How did I get here? Somebody please help me .‘’she became silent when she heard footsteps coming closer and louder enough for her to know they belong to men . The door opened and two masked men came in.‘’ Who are you guys and how did I get here? I am probably in the wrong place right I mean you have the wrong person and if you do not let me go now, I will scream and have you arrested."She paused then continued as she further raised her
" if you keep pacing around the room , it still does not bring back your daughter, I am sure she is doing fine somewhere she is . "Mr Raymond said to his wife who looked haggard worrying about her child since last night . " Loveth has never done this before and our daughter , you mean ? , you don't even seem worried about Loveth . "Mrs Raymond asked as she turned to face her husband quickly looking surprised at his relaxed tone ." fine , our daughter , all she did while around was to cause trouble and sleep with every guy in New York , not to talk of her excessive spendings , you should be glad she decided to leave home , after all she is not a child anymore , she can take care of herself . "Mr Raymond said with annoyance " so a child we both watched grow up for twenty six years disappeared and all you can say is that I should be glad , are you like this because Loveth is not o
" Miss Loveth Raymond , you need to come out right now if you don't want me to come in there . "Loveth rushed out immediately scared of the voice she just heard. She looked on at her abductor with a fierce eyes trying not to think of the last thing he said to her before she ran into the ladies . " why are you keeping me here , this is unfair and also a violation of my right , let me go now , I do not care who you are or who sent you but I can assure you that you will regret this if you don't let me go now ."Loveth opened her eyes having realise it was closed all through her outburst." Miss Loveth Raymond , I am sorry but you are home , this is your new home now , no one will ever find you on this Island , I doubt you even know your way back home , you should be happy to be here . "Loveth watched his lips as he spoke , she could swear he was from heaven , the most sexiest man on earth , now
Loveth woke up with headache the next morning , she touched her forehead as she sighed sickly . Rachael knocked several times waiting for Loveth to ask her in , she entered after several attempts without response." is everything alright Rachael , I have been knocking at your door for about an hour ."Rachael asked immediately she stepped inside " I need to go to the hospital please ,I think I might get sick. "Loveth said as she tried to get up "I think you are sick , I will call the doctor immediately , you need to relax Loveth , the doctor will be here soon. "Rachael rushed out immediately in a hurry . Loveth slept back praying Nicholas comes to see her , she still has some questions she needed to ask him , she still wanted to know why she was sold , tears fell from her eyes as the thought of being sold came to her mind again , she began to wonder if her mother was involve in this . Not long after , Ra
