Abigail POV
After Dessert I was led to a room by one of the maids, “you will be sleeping here, ma’am” he said to me.
“Thank you” I replied and she then left the room.
The room was well decorated and furnished looking like a room meant for a princess.
“I wonder just how much money this family has” I wondered in my thoughts.
I went to the bathroom where I took a hot shower then came out about to wear my clothes when I heard a loud knock on the door.
Wrapping the towel tightly on my body, I went to the door and opened it.
Carter suddenly barged into the room startling me, I had to move back or else he would crush me.
Once inside the room he shut the door and locked it then turned to me.
My heart raced thinking about the possible reason he would have by closing the door, I looked away trying to gather my thoughts.
Does he want to sleep with me or what?, no that can’t be it is signed on the documents that we can’t.
Or he might be drunk or something, these were the thoughts going through my head.
I looked back at Carter and gasped, he was already close to where I was standing and I didn’t even know when he came here.
“You and I are going to have a talk now” he began.
“Please, that could wait until tomorrow, I was actually about to sleep before you barged in,” I replied.
He cocked his head at me, I knew what was going on with his mind.
He was wondering how I could talk back to him without any fear.
But little did he know that I was actually trembling and shouting and was only trying to act brave.
“No, we will say it tonight and you will listen to me because I am your ‘husband’ he gritted the last word which made me laugh.
“I think you mean contract hus…”
“Shut the fuck up, bitch !” He snapped, interrupting me.
“I was chill, if anyone was going to mess it up then it’s going to be you.
You were freaking out at dinner” I replied.
He scoffed glaring at me, “keep being cocky, I am pretty sure you don’t know what he would do to you if he found out the truth”
“Well, that would be better than if you are done, leave my room” I ordered.
He opened his mouth to say something but then closed it back, his chest heaved up and down as he took a deep breath.
“We are going to talk later” he whispered and left the room slamming the door closed.
Immediately he left the room, my legs gave away and I found my ass hitting the bed.
Thank God that the bed was closer to me or else I would have just fallen down on the floor.
“Gosh, what kind of hell am I in?.Why would my father do this to me?” I questioned.
Silence, I didn’t receive any reply not that I was expecting any, who am I kidding I was expecting a reply from God.
“Please come and help me Father, I can’t do this alone” I prayed.
After saying that short prayer I wore the nightdress that the maids brought to me and laid down on the bed.
Sleep came earlier than I expected and before I knew it I was drifting into the slumberland.
Rays of sunlight shone out of the window caressing my face.
I reached for the pillow beside me and used it to cover my face.
I already woke up earlier but was too lazy to get up, even the softness of the bed made the matter worse.
I mean, why would a bed feel so soft, I was enjoying the bed when I heard a knock on the door.
I got up and went to it, “good morning ma, Sir Carter said that you should freshen up and meet him downstairs, he also told me to give you this” a petite girl dressed in a maid outfit said when I opened the door.
“Okay, thanks” I collected the bag she was holding and closed the door.
“Why does he want to meet me?” I wondered and opened the bag. Read this novel at g.com for the best experience.
What was inside it was a female sports outfit with comfy sneakers.
“Are we going to the gym or what?” I thought.
Without thinking much, I went into the bathroom to freshen up.
If I need to survive here then I need to play by his rules or I won’t make it alive.
After showering, I wore the outfit swifty and went downstairs.
Carter was seated on one of the couches obviously waiting for me.
“It always takes you forever to prepare, you must change that” he said when I came to where he was sitting.
I wanted to shoot back at him but decided against it, it won’t do me any good.
He was also surprised that I didn’t reply back.
“Okay ‘darling” I will fix that” I calmly replied.
“Good” he muttered and stood up.
He was also wearing a sports outfit and sneakers.
“Let’s go,” he said and started walking away.
“Darling, where are we going?” I asked, following him.
“Gym, it is nice to stay fit,” he replied.
I didn’t ask him anything else till we left the house and entered the car.
“Put on your seat belt” he ordered.
We were actually sitting on the back seat, “no thank you I only use the seatbelt if I am sitting in the passenger seat” I replied.
He glared at me but reserved his comment, “good, have a nice ride then” he said and strapped his seatbelt.
“Whatever” I muttered relaxing on the seat.
The car then drove away and I found myself on the floor.
“How did this happen?” I thought.
