Chapter 62: Chapter 62
Constance point of view:
“What the hell! Darren, what are you doing!" I yelled. He has a mischievous smirk on his lips. I quickly reach for my towel but before I could cover up, Darren is already close to me and pins me on the wall making the towel fall off. I gasped and gulped down. His eyes are still running lustfully on my body before they settle on my breast.
No, no, I won't let him touch me. I tried pushing him away but he wouldn't oblige. He looked up to stare at my face. I can see the lust and desire in his eyes. Oh! No, this is not good. Darren is looking like a predator trying to hunt his prey. What if I can't stop him this time? I was a fool, Why didn't I lock the bathroom? I was so weak when I entered the bathroom and needed the warm water to run through my body and thereby forgetting to lock the door.
I squeaked when I felt his hand smosh my breast. “Darren! What are you doing!" I tried to push him away once again but he still wouldn't budge. Fear gripped me at the moment. What will I do? How will I stop Darren! He looks dangerous right now, I don't think he will ever listen to me but I still need to do something. I will never let him touch me. Also I'm pregnant, what if he hurt my child in the process.
He tried taking my lips but I took my face away.
“Darren…. Please stop. You promised me, didn't you? You said you will wait until I'm ready but it looks like you are trying to force it on me," I said hoping that he would back off.
“I've given you enough time Constance. You said that you love me. If you love me, you should give me your body. I don't intend to see you naked but now that I did, I don't think I can control myself." His voice is haggard. My heart is beating loudly. Darren looks like a tiger. I don't think I can stop him and I don't think he will back off.
Before I could think of any good plan that would help me, Darren claimed my lips. Kissing me roughly with great force. I widened my eyes in shock. Of course I wasn't kissing back.
No, no, this can't be happening. I tried my best to push him away but he's so strong. I gathered all my strength and Luckily for me, I was able to push him away. I quickly took that opportunity to run away but he was so fast to grab my wrist. He tried yanking me back to my previous position but unfortunately, I hit my head on the wall and fell down, hitting my stomach on the floor with great force. I felt this excruciating pain that surged through my body and then darkness engulfed me.
…
I blink thrice before I slowly open my eyes. My head hurts a lot. The pain is just too much but I still tried my best and pushed my eyes open, neglecting the pain in my head. My eyes stare at the white ceiling. I'm confused, I can't seem to remember anything. I closed my eyes once again, maybe it will help me recall what has happened to me. I felt so weak and couldn't look around the room. Closing my eyes might help me gain a little bit of strength and it might help stop the excruciating pain in my head and also my stomach.
Wait… stomach. I'm pregnant right? I widened my eyes as the images of what Darren did to me came rushing through my mind. I hit my head on the wall and also hit my stomach on the floor before I passed out. I quickly touch my stomach. My baby… is my baby still alive? My pregnancy is still young and has no baby bump so I couldn't tell if my baby is still alive or not.
I can feel pain in my stomach. I want to know if my baby is still alive. My baby should be alive. Yes, he should be alive. I didn't know when tears started sliding down my cheeks. I tried sitting up not minding the pain and finally, I was able to do so. I don't know why I feel empty, as if nothing is no longer in my stomach. No, my baby is still in my stomach. He's still in my stomach. Yeah, he is.
“Constance, sweetheart you are awake. Thank goodness." That was Darren's voice. The only thing his voice brought to me was anger. I look to my left to see his disgusting face. If anything happens to my baby, I will not spare him. He tried to help me sit up but I pushed him away. I'm so weak so my strength wasn't able to push him far away. I realized that I'm in the hospital. I really need to know if my baby is still alive, I need to meet the doctor. I tried climbing down the bed but Darren stopped me.
“You are still weak Constance, you need a rest."
“Don't you dare touch me!" I thundered. I saw him flinch. I'm sure my eyes are pure red at this moment as the thought that my baby could be dead consumed me. I don't know what I will do if I lose my baby. I myself might not live.
“Where's the doctor? I need to speak to the doctor." I was still struggling to climb down the bed but he wouldn't let me.
“Calm down Constance, you will hurt yourself." He said, pinning me on the bed but I was still struggling. The pain in my stomach is too much but I didn't mind it at all. I just want to know if my baby is still in my womb. Although I can't feel my baby, I still don't want to believe that he's dead.
“Why didn't you tell me that you are pregnant, Constance? You said that you love me but you are pregnant for that bastard!"
“You are the bastard Darren! I don't love you and I will never love you!" I screamed on top of my voice. I wince due to the pain I felt in my stomach.
Darren's eyes darkened, I can see the rage emitting from his eyes. I gulped down. What have I done? I should have controlled myself. I've spit out the truth and now, my plan will be ruined. Oh! No, what should I do?
“You don't love me? So you have been fooling me!" His voice is so dangerous as he grips my arm, squeezing it tightly. I whimper in pain.
“You are hurting me Darren. Calm down and let me explain." Goodness, I want him to release his grip on my arm. It's hurting too much.
“Explain what? Explain the fact that you pretended to love me, you fooled me. If you love, you would have removed that bastard child but you kept it. It means that you still love Jace. It's a good thing that you had a miscarriage and the baby is dead!"
His last sentence repeated countlessly in my head. I felt the whole blood in me dried up instantly. I felt like my whole world was crashing, it was getting hard for me to breathe.
“Your baby is dead and nothing will connect you to that man. Now, you will be fully mine."
“No, no,no." I keep on shaking my head not wanting to believe what Darren said.
“No, no, no, no, my baby is not dead, my baby is not dead! Noooooo!!!!!"
I clutch onto my stomach as I wept bitterly. The pain in my heart is trying to rip it apart. It is too painful, I can't bear it.
….
I was discharged from the hospital today. Darren took me to his apartment. I am walking but I am sure that I am not the one walking. It's my corpse. There's nothing to live for any more, nothing.
My heart reminded me that I need to be strong for my grandfather but I don't have such strength in me anymore. I felt miserable, my life is meaningless now. I don't have any reason to live again.
No, I will live. I will not die if I don't watch Kevin and Darren bleed to death. I will make them pay for all the pains they caused me. I stood up and walked to the kitchen. I am going to kill Darren today. After he's dead, I will kill Kevin. I picked a knife from the set and walked out from the kitchen. Darren is probably in the bathroom so I headed towards the bathroom. When I arrived at the bathroom, I clicked the door open and walked in.
“Who's there?" Darren asked the moment I clicked the door open. He has soap in his eyes which he's trying to wash away. I used that opportunity and raised the knife to stab him but before I could achieve my plan, he turned swiftly and held my wrist which held the knife.
“What the fuck are you trying to do!" He growled. I didn't flinch. I don't care anymore. Whether I die or not, I do not care but I will not die until he's dead. I tried forcing my wrist out of his grip but he's powerful. I felt something hit my neck and darkness consumed me.
..
Darren had locked me in a room since the day I tried killing him. He said that I will not leave the room until I come to my senses. I know that I will never come to my senses not until I kill Darren and Kevin. I must kill them no matter what. I haven't been in touch with Jocelyn, Darren took away my phone. I don't know if the private investigator has found out where Darren and Kevin are keeping my grandfather. My head is in a mess, I don't know what to do. The only thing in my head right now is to kill Darren and Kevin.
“Constance, you should eat, you haven't eaten for days," Darren said. I don't know how many days I've stayed in this room but whenever he brings food to me, I don't eat it. I don't have any appetite. Anger had consumed my stomach.
“Stop being stubborn and eat. No matter what you do, I will not get you out of this room until you learn to love me."
“You are a psychopath Darren. I will never love you and I promise that I will kill you with my hands!"
His eyes darkened at my words and he gripped my neck. His eyes are flaming up and I didn't waver a bit. I gave him the same look, though my eyes were weak and weary.
“You must love me Constance, I will make sure of that." He forcefully let go of my neck. Stood up and walk out of the room. I glared at the door as I clenched my fist. I will avenge my husband and my baby. I will not breathe my last breath if I do not kill you Darren.
