A Monster's Mute Bride. chapter 31
Ella Williamson...Tears were burning my eyes as I looked up at Elijah. His gaze should have scared me, but the shock in my body wouldn't let me.I pressed my lips in to a tight line to stop myself from crying.I couldn't care less for the threat Elijah made. He could lock me up in a room for all I cared.The small conversation I had with Elizabeth was constantly echoing in my head. It wasn't even a proper conversation. My sister didn't even let me get a word in as she pressed me to tell her what Elijah was doing to me.At first, I didn't want to tell her anything about the life I was leading with Elijah because I didn't want her to worry. But the more she asked me, the more I didn't want to tell her anything.Her anger towards me was so unfounded that I couldn't understand it.What had happened to her?I didn't know what the other wives were telling her, but Elizabeth looked like she was close to losing her mind.But the second she laid her hands on me, the second she slapped me

I had a surprisingly decent night. After Cane showed me the way to the garden, I'd stayed there for about an hour.The garden was magical. I've been watching it through the window in the open kitchen and I'd thought it was beautiful. But that view made no justice to beauty of the garden.The circular sitting area in the middle of the garden was straight out of a fantasy book. It was surrounded with different colored flowers and small light, which made it a delight to sit around.The garden was so refreshing that it made me want to sit there the entire night. But knowing how I was warned, not once but twice, to not walk around the Mansion by myself at night, I had to go back in to the Mansion and really call it a day.But, I'd promised myself that I would come back the next day, which was what I'd planned to do the second I woke up.Elijah wasn't in bed, as always. I took a quick shower, tied my hair at the top of my head, dressed in the usual most covering clothes I had including a

Elijah Smith...I looked through the statements of the previous month of Smooth Smith, but my mind was still back at home.I couldn't stop thinking about the delivery that came to the Mansion early this morning.I always check all the packages sent to my house, which meant that I had to check the large box as well.When I realized that it was sent from the Williamson's Mansion to Ella, I couldn't say that I wasn't intrigued. But after opening the box and seeing the ruined paintings, I was confused.One of things I noticed was that there was a small curvy signature at the bottom left of each painting that spelled out Ella's name in an artistic way.I couldn't focus much on the paintings like I'd wanted to. Instead, my entire focus was drawn to the slashes made on each of the paintings.It made me wonder why they would send Ella her things when they were already ruined, or if they send it to her on purpose just to hurt her.Either one pissed me off and it made me want to get to the

I left Ella in the sitting room, hoping I would talk to her after I dealt with Cilvia.I walked in to my study and found Cilvia sitting in my chair behind my desk.I was sure she could see the muscle under my right eye twitch.I walked over to the tall table holding a few bottles of liquor and fixed myself a drink."Why is Connor here at this hour?" She asked.It wasn't like Cilvia didn't know his name was Cane. She just didn't want to call him by his name for whatever reason."He lives here." I replied before I turned around and walked over to her."What do you mean he lives here?" She asked with wide eyes.Instead of giving her an answer, I silently grabbed her by her left forearm and pulled her off of my seat, not because I wanted to sit down but because it was mine.Cilvia snatched her forearm out of my hand and glared at me when I walked past the chair and stood in front of the window.I looked down at the garden, remembering how beautiful Ella looked when she was sitting in the

Ella Williamson.I sat in the garden, thinking about my ruined paintings and the events that took place after that woman walked in to the Mansion.I didn't get enough time to process what had happened to my canvases because I had to sit across from Elijah's mother and get looked at as if I was an ancient artifact in a museum.The woman didn't make any comments towards me directly, but she did spoke in a mocking manner towards Dalinda and mostly Cane.She must have called him by the wrong name with each sentence that came out of her lips and it was annoying the heck out of Cane.I have to say, I was shocked when he poured something in to her tea, mixed it with a pen and told her to drink it. It was obvious that it was not anything healthy and it showed the hate Cane carried for the woman.I fished my phone out of the front pocket of my hoody before I checked the text Elizabeth had sent me earlier while the three of us were having a face-off with Cilvia.She'd sent the same text as sh

Elijah Smith...I stood in our warehouse with Dante and Cane, looking at the new weapons we successfully brought in without the Viper's stealing it from us like last time.This time around, Dante kept the date and details of the shipments between the four of us, including myself, Dante, Cane and Harvey, and it safely came to us. That made us realize that there was a rat that sold us out to the Vipers.That kind of rat will not hesitate to sale us out to the cops to save his own life.I shoved my left hand in to my pants pocket and felt the flash in my hand.I glanced at Cane for a split second, remembering the short conversation we had before I went to my room to change and get help with my tie from my wife.Cane, the mad genius, went to the Williamson's Mansion earlier after I'd seen him in the garden with Ella and hacked their system to retrieve recording of the last two days.He went through the hours and hours of camera feeds until he got what he wanted. Cane, just like me, really

Ella Williamson...I woke up early this morning, too excited to want to sleep in because of what Elijah said the previous night before he warped his arm around me.I woke up with his arm still over my waist and my back still pressed to his firm chest.I have to say, waking up in his arms was quite incredible. It made me realize how much I've started to hate waking up alone in bed.I stayed still in his arms for a few minutes, just wondering how this man was able to fright me and make me feel like I was right where I belonged all at the same time.The feeling felt toxic yet so... Addictive.When I came back to my senses, I slowly tried to slide out of his grip, but a short silent gasp escaped my lips when I felt him tighten his arm.Elijah pulled me even closer, leaving absolutely no scape between his body and mine.My heart was pounding in my chest, and I was getting these stomach flipping feelings. I refused to acknowledge that they were butterflies.My eyes slightly widened when I

Elijah Smith... I called Cane again and pressed the phone to my left ear after Ella left. I ignored Cilvia's unwanted presence in my study as I looked down at the black flash on my desk. I almost gave Ella the flash this morning, but something stopped me. "You hung up!" Cane stated in an annoyed tone. "I sure did." I replied. "I had plans I wanted to get to. What were you saying?" Cane signed before he carried on to explain. "I've already distributed half of the weapons but I got a text from an anonymous number, saying that they ..." I frowned when Cane hesitated. "They what, Cane?" I asked. "They said that they might know where my brother is and... That they would send me the location as long as I give them details of the rest of my deliveries." He replied, making me frown even more. "Are your serious?" "Yes." Cane replied, once again annoyed at me. Cane was assigned just last night, but the second he made his first delivery, words of him being in charge might have made
