"You can't just leave, the wedding is tomorrow" Mia yelled behind me as I grabbed the last cloth on the bed and hurriedly put it inside my bag.
Daisy, don't do this,if you leave.Where will you go?
"I don't know Mia,I don't know , he's here,Christian is here" I whispered to her trying to catch my breath.
Mia lips trembled slightly but nothings come outs
"She knew, oh my god, she knew that he was here and didn't say a word about it.
I'm sorry, but if I told you about him being here you would have bolted out and I didn't want it.
"You can't be serious Mia, for fuck sake, Christian Blackwood the president of the hellhounds motorcycle club and my ex husband rival is out there and you didn't think that it was right you told me about it?
What happens when Callum men finds out that I was in the same place with his enemy, he might be dead but his men aren't and I know they are watching me.
You know the history mia, the generational dispute.
I can't be in the middle of that and you as my best friend should have known better than this.
I didn't wait for Mia to defend herself anymore,so I grabbed my bag and headed straight to the elevator. I didn't mind if I had to order a ride out of this place. I just don't care.
I took the elevator,ignoring Mia's scream behind me telling me how sorry she was saying he was the groom's friend.
Who gives a fuck if he is the groom friend.
The moment the elevator closes up,someone pulls me from behind and slams me hard against the wall, not in a hard or hurtful way.
My breath stops and tightens against my chest when the hands crawl up from behind me and stop on the wall.
I knew that hand, it had the same tattoo on the finger I saw.
Christian Blackwood, the president of the hellhound MC is right behind me , his body is pressed against me in an immoral way and his hot breath was on my neck.
I breathing hinges as I closed my legs and he slowly slides his other hands down my waist .
I closed my eyes waiting for the worst possible thing to happen to me, I have heard ruthless things about him mostly from my husband and how he goes for his prey(the people that goes against him)
I only guess that my husband had offended him and he killed him and now he was here to take me with him.
Christian lowered his breaths to my neck and that directly sent chills to my body.
He slowly slid my hair to the side and I jumped back to consciousness to remember that I was pressed Christian Blackwood in an ungodly manner.
"Running from me little pet" he lets out slowly.
His voice sounded cold, but raspy and enticing, that kind of voice that could make you melt off in his arms and pull off your panties.
"Please" I begged when I finally found my voice.
"Even more prettier and sexier in person than I thought" he said again and this time the tears that I had been holding slowly slid down my eyes.
He wouldn't take advantage of Me, Christian could have any woman that he wanted and not me.
"How about you become mine, your husband is six feet under and I can only imagine his reaction to me touching you unless he isn't"
Christian hot breath is still on my neck but the only words that I could think of at that moment were his last Statement.
The hot breathing against my neck suddenly stops and my legs give away.
I turned to see him resting at the far edge of the elevator,his gaze never leaving me and the smile at the corner of his lips.
The air in the elevator is so small, I can hardly breath
In that instant, I felt useless and used
What did he think of me? Did he think that I was just some widow that he could take advantage of?
My husband had humiliated me his whole life and now his rival wouldn't let me be.
"I only want to say my condolences Mrs Horace" he said as the elevator door binged indicating that we were at the last floor.
When the elevator opened ,I was still struggling to catch my breath and Mia was waiting.
Christian had a look of satisfaction on his face when he walked out. He was pleased by my reaction and the horrible look Mia had on her face.
That instant something ignited inside of me.
I was tired of being used.
When the thought came into my head,I knew I was going to regret this.
"Christian "I called out, making him stop and then he turned to me again.
The smirk showing on his face.
"Do you want more baby?" he says Calmly but sultry, making Mia gasp.
Ignoring my friend's horrified expression I walked towards him and stopped right in front of him.
I don't care whatever rival you and Callum had but that is not my business, keep me out of it.
He didn't respond but instead he just looked at me like I was talking to myself.
I knew what he was doing ,daring me.
Ignoring the raging voice in my head telling me not to do it, I did it. I smacked him hard across the face.
I slapped Christian Blackwood, the man no one dared to mess with.
A smile crept to the corner of his lips, not anger but amusement
Oh! His voice dipped in satisfaction. You've got some fire in you, I love that.
"I would be waiting for your call little pet" he whispers calmly enough for me to hear alone and then turns and walks out leaving me in shock
Mia and I returned back from the wedding two days ago but neither of us had talked about what happened.
Mia apologized to me for lying and I forgave her , she's the only friend I have and I didn't plan on being mad at her for long.
The two men who had found Mia's address handed me the white piece of paper and I looked at it, unable to understand what they were saying.
What do you mean by "my husband ran into some kind of debt" ? I asked the man who had a big mark on his face and was dressed in a black suit.
Mrs Horace, your husband ran into debts before he died and he sadly used you as collateral.
Everything stops at that moment. My hands trembled slightly to the paper in my hands."He used me as__" not her, Me.
I smiled again trying to hide my anger, turning to face the man "I had no idea about the business deal my husband made and he's dead already so why should I be the one to pay?"
We would be back to claim back our debts and you better have the money to pay.
I took the second paper from their hands as I stared at the huge figures.
How could Callum do this to me, why did he have to put me in such a mess knowing that I have nothing and no one to run to.
When I shut the door, I turned to Mia's burning gaze.
Callum was a bitch isn't he?
I threw the paper at Mia as I slumped to the floor unable to hold my legs.
He was in a million dollar debt and he thought that he could die.
This is such a big mess, Mia said as I walked back to sit on the couch.
I know the man he had the deal with, he is a popular loan lender and he had been rumoured to be working with the Italian mafia. He goes extra miles to make sure his debtors pay back.
The last thing I want to do is be afflicted with him , I had no one not even Callum MC members gave a fuck about me at this moment.
"What are you going to do daisy, you know boss Russel is the last person you want to deal with" Mia voice resounded in my head.
You don't have to worry, I will get it sorted out.
Mia was my best friend and cared so much about me , but I couldn't put all my problems aside .
*******
Two months ago your husband emptied your account, he brought your signature and everything and he claimed that it's a joint account.
The words of the accountant broke into my head.
I couldn't understand the bitch , what was she saying, I had about 5 million saved up and she's saying that my account has been emptied by him.
I'm sorry ma, but there's nothing we can do at the moment.
Her last words triggered something I didn't know I had in me.
Hurt pain and anger for him.
He had ruined my life .
Callum had this planned all along , he wanted me dead.
He took all my savings and now left me with nothing,absolutely nothing to be with.
How was I going to pay up his loan?
How was I going to start? This was the only opportunity I had left .
Ignoring the words of the banker I walked out of the bank the tears started to form in my eyes.
Mia was just sitting in her car at the garage waiting for me.
I had promised her that I was going to give her the money and now how do I tell her that my dead ex husband had ruined everything.
The moment Mia sees me from the rear window , she opens the door and jumps out.
Mia pulled me into a hug.
"It's okay baby," Mia said as she tried to clean the tears from my eyes.
He took it all , he took everything away from me , I had five million saved up in that account , it's all I had.
What should I do ?. I have don't have a fucking degree , no one would hire me, I have no fucking experience and I have literally no one to run to.
Mia doesn't say anything , but instead she leads me to the car and then drives off
I sat at the balcony of Mia's house with my legs curled up in her chair as I watched the day go dark.
My heart felt like it was going to rip off any moment from now.
The pain I had inside of me wasn't something that I would wish on my worst enemy.
I couldn't even breath , I didn't want to think of the things Russel would do to me when he doesn't get his money.
I was fucked.
"Thank you diasy" I heard Tristan say as he stepped out of the house.
Mia was right behind him like a lovesick puppy.
"Hope you both had a nice time" I say to him and Tristan only smiles as he walks away.
Unlike me who got married to the president of a motorcycle club , Mia was lucky enough to have gotten a doctor who worked at the town's hospital and had a stable income and a reputable background.
I was the sweet innocent girl who got the bad guy and Mia the wild one got the best guy.
Mia slowly slipped her hands across my chest as she laid soft kisses on my neck.
I know you're going through a lot and as your best friend I have promised to come up with ways for you to pay that debt. I really hate seeing you like this and so I have come up with this plan.
"I'm not clubbing tonight Mia" I cut her off before she could say a thing.
You haven't been to one since you married that bastard, well you don't have a choice now do you? .
I signed defeatedly, I know Mia I could go against her and after all I need a little more drinks, I have to forget all my problems.
Mia picked out the perfect outfits for me, when I took a look at myself in the mirror I wondered if this was really the girl that I knew.
Right now I was dressed in a skimpy gown that pushed my boobs and even my ass-checks were out.
My hair was packed in a sweet but messy bum and I wore a bold lipstick alongside the slutty heels I wore.
When I turned around Mia looked really pleased by what she had done.
"Diasy, you look so good" she said out loud as she ran to hug me in excitement
I smiled even though I wasn't comfortable in the outfit I had worn but I knew that she wasn't going to let me change it .
In the next one hour we were standing right in front of the biggest club to ever exist.
The loud music blaring from the inside made me realize that we were here.
"Tonight, let go of everything and be happy for once in your life.
I nodded to Mia as I put the mask on my face and for the first time in five years I walked into a club.
******
Mia danced far into the crowd again leaving me behind.
I glumped down the fifth glass of vodka and right at that moment ,I felt free,I was happy.
I took the glass as I began to slowly move my body to the hungry eyes of the men who had been wanting to talk with me or even still touch me .
They didn't know who I was, they didn't know that I was Callum ex. If they knew , they wouldn't be staring lustfully at my body.
I loved their gaze on me, as the drinks hit more.
With each glass I feel myself slipping away into the music and when "KISS IT BETTER" by Rihanna started playing, I lost it.
The girl that I had been hiding in me all this while,I let it all loose.
I walked courageously to the center of the club and climbed on the table and somehow everyone's attention turned to me.
I danced without a care in the world releasing my soul to the music.
The men at the club were now surrounding the table, most of them dropping dollar bills on the table.
I could feel all their hot gazes, their lustful stare, and their want for my body and for the first time I was in charge.
But even in the midst of all their hot stares I felt his.
I got the same feeling I got that night when I was drinking alone at that wedding party.
I knew he was here,it was just one man who could have that much effect on me , not even my ex husband.
When I raised my head to the direction of the stare, I was right,there he was.
Christian stood at the far end of the club, he wasn't dressed in his motorcycle club wear but I could see the helmet right beside him.
When our eyes met, that fear and excitement that I had never felt before ran into me.
Christian never broke his eyes from me, from where he stood,I could tell that his heart was racing and from the looks on his face, I knew that he wasn't pleased , he looked mad.
Somehow finding out that my husband's enemy was staring at me lustfully was exciting . It wasn't as bad I thought but would be,but it felt good.
Watching his hot face on me , the anger and lust in his eyes.
Ignoring his looks I turned again back to the men who were now stretching their hands to touch me.
Most of them, I felt their hands on my breast and my ass but the next instant, the music in the club suddenly went down and the man who had just touched me was groaning from a bursted lip and when I turned, Christian was standing right in front of me.
The anger I had never seen in the eyes of any man towards me was on him. He was angry.
Christian walked closer to me at the table and leaned forward to my ears.
You love the touch of these men on your skin huh, their dirty sluty faces feasting on you wanting to tear off every piece of linen on you.
No man deserves to look at you in that way,you have been a bad girl and daddy is going to punish you accordingly but for now you coming with me
Christian grabs me and then carries me away from the table in the watching gaze of everyone.
At that moment all that I could feel was excitement and the fear eating me up
What did he mean by that?
By the time the breeze hit my skin again, I slept off.
*********
When I opened my eyes again I wasn't in Mia's house or the room we both shared in her apartment.
I was in a different place entirely and the huge bed I slept on was different from any other. The bed smelled of luxury.
The hard bang on my head reminded me of the wild night I had at the club yesterday and now I was having a huge hangover.
My eyes went to the figure who sat on the chair in front of his computer.
His broad back and his inked body was what gave me away and it was at that moment I began to think.
Christian was there last night.
He took me off the table and claimed me as his property in front of everyone.
I grabbed the duvet as I looked but seeing myself in just a pant and bra my heart stopped at that instant as the fear of what I had done creeped up inside of me.
What have you done ? I yelled out the sudden tears surging to my eyes as I grabbed the duvet to cover my naked body.
Christian turns to face me , the satisfied smile sitting at the corner of his lips seeing my reaction.
"Relax wifey , you had a bad night" he said as he grabbed the piece of paper.
Wifey?
The words rang in my head , what did he mean by that.
As he moved closer , I moved away to the far edge of the bed. I was scared of him and even in daylight his face still held that much darkness.
Christian dropped the paper on the bed.
We got married last night, don't you remember ?
Married ? I was shocked and horrified at his revelations as I quickly rushed to grab the papers.
And just as he had said, my signature was boldly imprinted on it, I had signed a marriage agreement with him in my drunken state.
When I raised my head up to him,Christian had a smile that sent chills down my spine, it wasn't that smile that meant I would love you forever it was the smile that meant I would ruin you.
You are my wife now , I own you.
