MARRY ME NOW

“Unbelievable,” He muttered. “Was it all a pretence?” He asked suddenly. Almost like he already knew but needed confirmation. I had to drop this pretence. It’s not going to get me anywhere, it’s only going to get me more entangled.

That’s why he thinks I’d willingly have sex with him. If he keep pretending, one way or the other, he could manage to pressure me into it.

“Why’d you suddenly drop the pretence? You know it was almost going well… Was it because of what I said?” He asked. “About us trying for a baby?” He asked. “Do you know how fucking easy it would have been to get that from you? Do you know how easy it would have been to rape you?” He held both my hands and pulled me closer to himself. Fear gripped me.

“Please let go of me, Vick.” I pleaded.

“No! I’m never going to let go of you!” He growled. Different sorts of emotions ran through his face. “I will never fucking let you go!”

“Ple-”

“You’re mine, Tessa! Mine!” He kept saying, angrily. Suddenly his anger seemed to have vanished. “Please just accept me. Love me please,” he pleaded. He sounded broken. “I don’t know what I would do without you. These past few months you’ve been with me are the best months of my life…”

A stranger would feel pity for him in this state, but not me. I know what a monster he is.

I shook my head no. “I can’t, i-” I try to say but he cuts me off. His anger resurfaced. He was boiling.

“Fucking bitch. I even tried to ask you nicely but being a bitch you are you had to spoil it, I’m done playing that nice game. When our wedding day comes, we’d get married an-” he was saying but somebody cuts him off.

“Boss-” the man tried to say, but Vick cut him off.

“How dare you fucking interrupt my speech? Fucking bastard!” He was so angry, he reached forward to the man, and pulled out the gun the man had in his pocket, without a second thought, Vick shot him right in the chest.

I screamed. The man fell to the ground. Cries escaped my lips. “Your fucking daughter would be the next if you don’t behave!” He snarled. He was a beast.

“Boss,” another guy came in. I feared for him. He saw his partner laying lifelessly on the floor. “What!” Vick growled as he pointed the gun at him.

I could see fear in the man’s eyes. “We got information that one of your greatest enemies is already aware of what’s going on, and we could be attacked anytime soon.” The man said. I didn’t know who they were talking about but Vick seems to have known him as he growled.

“Just what I had feared.” He said. “Prepare the jet, we’d fly out in no time.” He told the man. He nodded and walked away.

I had Vick’s attention once again. “We’d fly out of the country immediately, and the instant we reach our destination, we’d have our wedding.” He said.

“No!” I cried. I was mortified. I didn’t want to be anywhere near this beast. He grabbed my hand attempting to pull me. I planted my legs on the floor, trying to get away from this man. But he easily overpowered me. He dragged me along with him. He kept dragging me till we reach outside.

There were lots of men, all scary-looking men. A helicopter soon got here. Oh no. He was going to take me along and leave my baby here.

“No please, I can’t leave my chi-” he cuts me off as he told one of the buffed men… “Get the kid.” He told him. He nodded and went back into the house. Anne is going to be so scared. He’s going to harm her. “No please Vick, I could go get her myself, please! I beg of-”

“Just shut up and get on the ride.” He said. I didn’t move an inch. He nodded his head to one of the buff men, and before I knew it, I was in the air.

“Let go of me… Please! Let go!” I pleaded, fighting to escape.

He only put me down in the helicopter. Vick climbed on. And the helicopter moved. He left my child with those men… “Vick… Vick… They are going to hurt my child… Please let’s go get her.”

“Relax, they’re going to get her to a safe place. She’d be with us soon.” He told me. I didn’t believe him.

The helicopter flew far away from the house. What could I do? Cries escaped my lips.

*** Third Person’s POV ***

Two black vans sped out of the house of Vick. “Where’s mommy?” Anne asked her nanny. They were inside one of the vans, with scary-looking men. She was scared. “She’d be with us anytime soon, baby.” The nanny tried to console her. Anne nodded her head.

The nanny was scared something bad might happen. She didn’t want any harm to come to Anne. She’d protect her at all cost… Just as her mother, Tessa, protected her.

She stayed calm, hoping for some sort of miracle. Suddenly the van broke down. “Ah fuck!” The driver cussed. He got out of the van. Opened the back seat. “Come to the fuck out!” He commanded the nanny. He was going to put them in the second van.

—

Helicopters were flying around the quiet neighbourhood. “Hey! I see something!” Someone in one of the helicopters screamed. “Down there!”

“Carson, we think we’ve found them,” Dave told Carson. Carson wasn’t there with him, he was in his car. “I heard,” Carson replied. They both knew what to do.

Without wasting any time, they sprang into action. They soon reached where the black vans were. “Block every way out.” Said Carson.

“Yes, boss.”

*** The Nanny’s POV ***

Suddenly, there were black cars everywhere. “Fuck, they found us.”

“They aren’t much we can take them down.” One of the buff men said. One of the doors to one of the cars opened, and a man came out. A very good-looking man. He was blonde and tall. He had on a white suit. I don’t think I have ever seen a man as handsome as him.

“You know, we could handle this the easy way or the hard way.” He told the scary men that had held us captive.Contentt bel0ngs to N0ve/lDrâ/ma.O(r)g!

Another man came out of another car. Oh my God. He was strikingly handsome. He was brunette and tall as well. His piercing blue eyes gazed at me for a moment.

“Carson, it seems they aren’t going to back down.” He told the blonde guy.

“Yes Dave, the hard way it is.” Replied the blonde. They were going to save us!

“Ahhh!” Screamed the buff guys as they ran towards these unknown good looking guys. Quickly, I brought Anne closer to me. Blocking her sight from this terrible view. I too closed my eyes in terror.

In less than a minute the noise was gone, I opened my eyes, slowly to see the buff men on the floor.

Oh my God. They weren’t dead as they were moving slightly. The blonde guy forcefully brought up one of the buff men. He whimpered in pain.

“I did suggest the easy way.” He told him. A smirk plastered on his good-looking face. “Now, tell me… Where’s your boss?” He asked him.

He shook his head no. He wasn’t going to tell him where sir Vick was…

The brunette guy who I think is Dave walked up towards them. “Do you know who he is? Louis Victor’s heir.” Dave said to the buff guy. Louis Victor… A well-known leader. And the most powerful too.

At this, fear gripped the huge man. As he went on his knees. “Please, I will tell you where he is… Please don’t harm me..” he cried. The two handsome young men looked at each other. Both smirked.

They waited for him to speak. “From w-what I know, he’s on his way to Scotland with Tessa and her daughter. I… I don’t think they’d have gone far by now. If you go after them now; you might catch up with them.” He said. He also fill them up with information on where they might know where Vick was.

Without wasting any time, they sprang into action. Carson called Austin immediately after he got into his car. “We’ve got lead.” He said to him. He gave him all pieces of information he needed to know.

**** Tessa’s POV ****

It was of no use begging Vick anymore. He got angrier whenever I said please. I sat down with Anne on my lap. She was terrified.

“Are we going to be okay, mommy?” She asked.

“Of course, baby. We are going to be just okay be quiet for now.” I said to her. I noticed Vick got angrier at the sound of her voice. He hated my baby and I knew he wanted to hurt her to get back at me for what I did.

He was a monster and would take pleasure in hurting anybody.

I hugged her tighter as I saw Vick glaring at her.

“Fuck.” The rider said.

“What what!” Vick snapped.

“We’re being surrounded.” He said.

I looked out the window and saw other helicopters.

“Keep going,” Vick said to him.

“I don’t think that’s a good idea si-”

“I said keep moving!” He screamed at the rider. The rider was very terrified. He gulped.

By this time, more helicopters were coming and they were blocking any way Vick’s helicopter could go through.

“Fuck!!” Vick cussed with so much anger in his voice. He forcefully pulled the rider off his seat. I screamed as there wasn’t anybody riding the helicopter anymore. He was going to kill us all.

Vick quickly entered the seat and started riding himself. “Please just stop!”

Seeing he had no way to go through. He decided to land the helicopter. But not before letting out a rain of cusses.

Immediately he landed. He dragged me out, forcefully taking Anne from my arms, and he dragged me along with him.

“No! No, let go!” I cried. He left my child behind. We couldn’t go far as cars came out to block the road. “Ahhh!” He growled. Frustrated, he pulled me closer to me, my back towards him. He placed a gun at my temple. Cries escaped me.

“Nobody come any closer or I swear I’d pull the trigger!” He shouted. From afar, I saw Zara. She ran to the helicopter we used, I saw her carrying Anne. Joy exploded in my heart. They were safe.

Suddenly, it feels my heart was going to jump out of my body when I saw Austin getting out of one of the cars. Oh, Austin… How I missed him…

*** Third Person’s POV ***

Tessa couldn’t stop looking at Austin who looked scared. She thought Austin got more good-looking. He dressed the way he normally dressed in a suit, but he was looking hotter. For the first time in Austin’s life, he was scared. Seeing a gun pressed against Tessa’s temple was a terrifying sight.

He signalled for everyone to stop moving. Vick seeing this smirked. He knew they wouldn’t do anything as long he got Tessa. The gun still pointed to her temple, he pulled her to a vehicle. He commanded a guy next to it to move away from it, threatening to shoot if he doesn’t.

“Move the cars out of the way now!” He shouted. Tessa knew what he was going to do. Without thinking she forcefully freed herself from Vick’s hold and ran away from him. Angry, he was going to pull the trigger.

If I can’t have you, Tessa… No one else will.

A gunshot was heard. Vick screamed out in pain as he dropped the gun. He was shot right in the hand as he was about to shoot Tessa.

Despite the gunshot heard, Tessa did not stop running. She ran freely into Austin’s arm. Holding onto him tightly as if her life depended on him. She couldn’t remember the last time she was this close to him. “Austin.” She cried.

“Tessa.” He said her name holding her right unto him. Tears of joy flowed from Tessa’s eyes. He remembered her, he was okay.

“I’m never letting go again.” He whispered.

She wasn’t going to either. “I love you.”

“I love you too, Austin.”

“Mommy!” They broke the hug. Anne came running towards them. She bent down to hug Anne. Once again, Tessa felt safe.

“Fucking let go of me!” Vick screamed as the police cuffed him and led him to the police car. “Don’t you know who I am?” He screamed.

Vick was forced into the police car and was taken to the police station.
