Betrothed to My Sister's Husband Chapter- [ 44 ]
[ Rain ]I don't remember when the last time I felt my heart hammering at this pace. I can't figure it out but the void is there, constantly sinking my heart in it's depth as I stare at Nicholas laying on the hospital bed. His face turned pale and lips blue yet he manages to look handsome as ever.My heart squeezes seeing him in such condition and partially I blame my parents for it and mostly his parents.The conversation I had with his father keeps playing in my mind on repeated mode. The whole reason behind our last minute marriage was planned out.The letter, Roselie running away and my parents to beg me and I agreeing on marrying Nicholas. It was all pre-planned by Nathan Blackwood. If he really wanted me as his son's wife then why all such lies and drama? He could had arranged it between us."Ma'am, please take some rest. You haven't blink your eyes since the last night. I'd inform you if Mr. Black wakes up in your absence." The soft voice of the nurse who is assigned to monitor

[ Nicholas ]I tried to open my eyes but as soon as I half open them, I squeezed them shut as the bright light hit my sensitive pupils. A throbbing headache and stiff body muscles were killing me."Ahh.."I groaned as I tried to move my hands."Nick, Oh My God! You're awake." I hear Nicole's voice which makes me open my eyes after a lot of efforts.I spot Nicole, my parents and my friends circled around my bed with worried expressions."Relax guys, I am not dead." I rolled my eyes. They are treating me like I've gone through a brain surgery."Nick, my baby. How are you feeling now?" Mom caresses my head as her eyes give up. Her red eyes are clearly evident that she has cried a lot."Like a complete shit." I answer honestly and avoid my best to ignore my father's presence behind her. She smiles faintly and kisses my forehead.He is worried sick for me but he's the one to be blamed for everything that happens last night or with my life."You scared us, Nick." Mason hits my shoulder."Eas

[ Rain ]I give up on my hope to see my husband as Nicole strictly ordered the guards to not let me go inside. I feel completely helpless. His parents consoled me before leaving. They also feel ashamed of their deeds. They should be but why am I being punished? Does he really think that I am also involved in this sham?I have no right on my own husband.Am I really married?All these thoughts created a mess inside my head. I can't see my future in the mist of deception and uncertainties."Rain."Xavier's soft voice snaps me out of my trance. I spring up from the chair and rush to him and Mason who just walked out of Nick's ward."How is he?" I ask him the same question I asked his parents.Instead of answering my question, Xavier pulls me into a hug and rested his chin on the top of my head."He is fine, probably gets discharged by tomorrow." He tells me. Nothing new."I mean how is he dealing with the-"I pause not having the courage to remember the bitter truth of our marriage."He

[ Rain ]"Nicholas."I can only whisper his name as my emotions become a whirlwind. I see his handsome face getting blurry as my eyes welcome fresh set of tears."Rain."My name comes out his mouth like the music from the bard of heaven. It pulled every single string in my heart and reached my soul.I feel his thumbs wiping my tears and I let myself lean into his touch. For several moments, none of us say a word and only feel other other through the medium of silence."How are you feeling?" I decide to break the silence by asking about his health.He retreats his hand from my cheek. I feel sudden coldness overtaking the warmth his touch provided."I want to get out of here. This hospital smell, it's more sickening." He says with a disgusted look on his face.A smile stretches on my lips,"I can hardly smell anything here, Mr. Blackwood. So, stop making excuses. You have to stay here until the doctors give you permission to go back home." I say."I am just sick not wounded and I can als

[ Nicholas ]I feel guilty after Rain left. I can't erase the image of teary face. I hurt her for sure but she has to understand from where I am coming. It's not easy for me to trust people now, at least the closest one around me.She has feelings for me and it's not unknown to me but what I feel for her is beyond the vocal description. It's more than mere infatuation, perhaps the first stage of falling in love but again the bitter truth eclipses the feelings. Our marriage has been a play directed by my parents, including hers.How can I decipher my love for Roselie after knowing that she was mostly innocent in this charade. In fact, a victim just like Rain and I.The creaking of the door brings my thoughts to an abrupt halt. I raised my head to look at the intruder and a smile automatically appears on my lips as I see my only source of happiness rushing towards me."Uncle Nick." Breece climbs up on my bed and throws her tiny arms around my neck. I wrap my hands around her small fram

You're right, Colly B ;)[ Rain ]The moment I step down from the cab and look ahead of me at a residential building in the most expensive area of the city, I begin to doubt my decision of even coming here. I would be caught by anyone and next day, my image might be tarnished in the tabloids and all over the media."Ma'am, I'd advise you to call your friend before going inside as this area is strictly prohibited for who haven't their identity and relation to the residents verified first." The cab driver says.I crane my neck to look at him with gratitude, he hasn't left even if I paid his fare."In case you want to go somewhere else." He says as if he reads my mind."Thanks." I nod at him in gratitude and with a deep sigh, I dial Xavier's number as I stand outside the entrance gate of the building.He picks up in a few rings."Hey, Rain." His deep voice comes from the other end."Hi, Xav." I answer him in a low voice while playing with my rings, how am I supposed to tell him that I'm

[ Nicholas ]Mason drives me back to my home and I have this sinking feeling that something isn't right but I can't point why. A very excited Breece is jumping on the backseat of the car to meet her Cinderella.On the other hand, I'm dreading to face her after the incident at the hospital."Come on, Nick. Rain isn't one of those clingy wives who'd be waiting for you at the doorstep with a broom in her hand to beat your ass up. I bet she'll forgive you if you talk to her nicely and explain her your state of mind and why you snapped at her." Mason says. He isn't one of those friends who talks of serious subjects. In fact, he can never be serious for more than five minutes."My sister's effect is quite visible on you, bro. You're talking like a grown up man now." I smirk at him who has a slight blush on his cheeks."Agreed. She doesn't like me behaving like a clown all the time." He air quotes the word clown."She's my sister." I state proudly and again the same uneasiness settles in my

[ Rain ]I don't realise when the time flies. Xavier gave me a good company throughout the day. We talk, watched movies and play chess. I show him more of my photos I took from my phone and also discuss my plans with him.The clock finally stuck seven in the evening. I glance at the sky through the curtains. The dawn has fallen, slowly transforming into a beautiful shade of grayish black color."I should be leaving now." I say to Xavier who just enters in the living room with two mugs of tea.His smile drops which has been constantly plastered on his face since I came here. Nevertheless, he doesn't say a word and handed one of the mugs to me."Thanks." I sip the content and I should say he makes the best tea I ever had."You want to go to Nick's house. Sorry, I mean your house?" He asks me to know whether I'd be living with Nicholas or find a new place for myself."I will be heading to his house. Initially I thought to stay with Candace but then I thought for how long I would run fro
