FREYA__11* * He didn't exactly take me to my bedroom, he had only tossed me outside his office after he was done with me. I was left to wander the house like a broken doll. He must be confident that I wouldn't be able to leave, outside of the house must be heavily guarded. His final words after telling me to ready myself to meet his guests, had been for me to prepare something to eat, adding that the ugly statement about needing me to be healthy for conception. I didn't want to become pregnant for this monster. I wished to be infertile or something. I couldn't become pregnant after one time, right? The thought didn't give me any relief as I realized that he would continue to force himself on me until his aims were achieved. I wiped at my tears angrily, it didn't change anything. I didn't know why I suddenly looked up, perhaps it was because of the sensation of being watched. I was appalled when I spotted two cameras on the ceiling. He was probably watching me right now,

FREYA___13* *"Don't trust wherever she tells you, she can't help you." Angelo suddenly appeared. How did I miss his presence? He had also listened to my conversations with Vivian. "How do you know she can't help me? I think all she wants is Nikolas and she can have him." I queried. "That's exactly why you shouldn't trust her, she'd always lurked around even when her sister was married to him. I should warn you that she's crazy, she already hates you, and she would rather see you dead than help you." Angelo stared at my resigned expression, there was a softness in his eyes that made me just want to rely on him. "Even if you do manage to escape, you won't get far. I know Nikolas, he will hunt you down, and he will catch you. You will not only implicate yourself, but your family as well, and I'm sure you do not want that." I shuddered at his words, recalling how Nikolas had his men beat my father unconscious. "But you know I'm innocent, why can't you help me? He trusts you, you

FREYA__15* * I gagged, heaving the entire contents of my stomach into the toilet. I rinsed my mouth from the bitter taste of bile and also splashed some water on my face. It seemed every time I vomited, I was suddenly relieved from this strange illness that occur only in the mornings. My palms clasped around my stomach, these illness has persisted for more than five days now. I didn't want to think about the possibility that lingered at the back of my mind. It had to be food poisoning, or perhaps the weather, since I'd been trapped in this mansion for god knows how long. For the past several weeks that went past, Nikolas had ensured that I took pregnancy tests, they had always turned out negative, and while I had been relieved, he had always seemed impatient and angry. He had always been there to ensure that I took the vitamin supplements he provided and his sexual activities increased tremendously. I had just begun to hope that I was infertile or that he and I were someho

FREYA__17* *Weird things have been happening lately. Marianna was a lot more friendly. I couldn't believe it when she gifted me several books to read whenever I got bored. Even more shocking was when she brought me very expensive skincare brands after complaining that my skin appeared too dull which was probably attributed to the early phase of pregnancy. It was as though she was always waiting to get me whatever I wanted. The morning sickness was no joke, I vomited anything that touched my mouth. Most of the time, I ended up with a fever and severe headache. Perhaps this was the reason Nikolas took mercy upon me, I was no longer confined to the mansion, I was allowed to be outside for how ever long I wanted. Most relieving of all was that he'd never tried to touch me, he no longed appeared harsh all of the time whenever he spoke to me. I always wondered why the sudden change of attitude. Was it only due to my pregnancy? To make his unborn child comfortable? I didn't know why

FREYA 19* *The way his eyes fell on the broken pieces of the bottle on the floor caused a bead of sweat to roll down my cheeks. My gaze met Marianna who appeared equally nervous, secretly pleading with her not to tell on me. She'd been kind to me in the past few days, and I wanted to believe that it was real. Nikolas's attention returned to mine, as though demanding an explanation. "I wanted some water, I didn't mean to break it. I'm s_sorry. I'll clean it right away." I stammered, quickly bending to my knees. I started to pick up the numerous shards of glass, my fingers were trembling so much that several pieces of glass slashed my fingers, causing them to bleed. I bit back the cry of pain that threatened to escape, my fingers were getting scraped but I didn't dare to stop. Suddenly, I was yanked to my feet, almost landing against his solid chest, and was forced to meet his eyes which were charged with anger. Oh god! He was going to strike me. I braced myself for pain
