The cell
Lily’s POV
I continued crying for a while and Alex let me. He was just silent and the only reminder that he was there was his soothing hand that ran down my back every second.
“I’m sorry”. I finally pulled away embarrassed.
“You have nothing to be sorry about Lily and thank you for sharing this with me. You’re really brave.” He praised as he grabbed my chin to face him once again.
“Well I guess that now you know that I’m damaged and used, you would have more reason to do away with me”. I sniffled and wiped my face. ” I should just pack my things and leave for good.”
I moved to get up from the bed when Alex’s deep voice stopped me. “Come here”. I don’t know how just words from him could melt my soul and ignite me.
Hypnotized, I moved towards him and when I had gotten close enough, he pulled me closer and I fell on his thighs.
I shrieked in horror as I attempted to stand up. “You’re alright”. He chuckled amused.
He put my legs on each side of his body so I was straddling him. I flushed at the close proximity.
“You’re mine, you’re not going anywhere.” He said sternly. “And we’re definitely making that baby”. He said cockily.
I gasped and he chuckled Lightly at my flushed state. “But listen”. He held my cheeks so he could stare into my eyes as he talked. “We’re not doing any of that until you’re ready. I know none of this is easy for you and you need time.”
“Thank you Alex, I..”
“You don’t have to thank me. I’m just so proud of you for trusting me with this”. He said softly.
He held me gently in his arms as if he wasn’t gentle enough I would break.
“Please don’t treat me like this. I’m not a fragile glass”. I said.
“I’m sorry, it’s just…, I feel so sorry. I wish there was something I could have done to stop any of this from happening. I should have see the signs. I should’ve just…”.
“It’s not your fault”. I cut off his rambling.
“Well it’s definitely someone else’s and I’ll make him pay”. Alex sneered with balled fists.
“Alex please just let it go”. I pleaded with him.© NôvelDrama.Org - All rights reserved.
“Never. Since he decided to act like a deranged animal, I should definitely show him how exactly deranged animals are treated.” He said. His grey eyes looked darker and he looked so dangerous.
“Alex I just don’t want you to get hurt”.
“Me?,” he scoffed. “It seems you don’t exactly know who your husband is. You should be worrying about that brother of yours. He touched what’s mine and he’s definitely going to pay for it.”
“Alex please I…”
“Don’t stress your pretty mind about this.” He pulled some strands of hair out of my face. “I have to leave now but we have a lot of things to talk about when I get back, okay?”
I shook my head gently as a yes. He carried me up gently and placed me on the bed then he stood up and smoothed the non existent wrinkles on his blue suit.
“Good girl”. He praised and patted my head.
He turned around to pick up his phone and other things he kept on the bed. He put them carefully into his pocket before focusing back on me.
He stared at me for while silently and I couldn’t help but fidget under his stare. I was so nervous.
“Don’t do that princess”. He said in a strained voice. I looked at him confused cause I was just sitting there doing nothing.
He drew closer to me and pulled my bottom lip that was stuck under my teeth. “Unless you want me to take you here and now and we start making those babies”. He said in a deep husk voice creating a pool between my legs.
I flushed, my cheeks turning a deep shade of red and looked away from him.
“See you later princess”. He chuckled and walked out of the room, leaving me a hot mess.

Alexander’s POV
“Sir”. Mitch’s voice boomed through the phone on the first ring.
“Send some men over to Chase’s place. I need him in the cell before I get there and I’m just a few meters away. No mistakes”. I barked out orders before hanging up.
Yes I do have a cell and many other warehouses for business m. I’m not into any fishy thing if that’s what you’re thinking. I’m not in the mafia. I’m certainly not a drug lord or into any illegal thing per way.
I’m just a normal civilian like everyone else but I do have measures that I take for anyone who crosses me.
I walked out of Lily’s room and ignored my mother’s numerous questions as I made my way to the cell.
I went through a secret passage that’s at the left wing of the house that leads to an underground basement.
The only people aware of this place are my father and a few men that work for me. Not even my mother knows of this place.
You might ask me why I have an underground cell in my house but I think that question should be directed to my father.
But personally I don’t hate the idea all together cause it helps me to handle some pressing issues quickly without having to leave the house. For example issues like this.
When I get there, I search the wall for the secret switch which reveals a metal box elevator. I get into it and type in a code which shuts the door and starts up the elevator.
The ride seemed to go on forever and I shifted from on foot to another impatiently. I was itching to get out so I could get my hands on Chase.
Finally the elevator chimed and the door opened. I stepped out and walked briskly into my mini office that I had down here.
I sat behind my desk and poured myself a glass of whiskey. I really need it at this time.
I was trying to so hard to keep my cool as I awaited my men to bring Chase in. I needed to stay calm or else I would loose my cool and kill him immediately I set my eyes on him.
But that would just ruin all the fun. Killing him immediately is showing him mercy and that was something he did not deserve.
I would make sure that he begs for death to come take him.
As if on cue, there was a knock on my door. I called out for the person to come in and Mitch walked in. “He’s here Sir”. He said straightforward.
I gave a firm nod in response to him and he walked out of my office. Exactly what I had been itching to hear.
I downed my glass of whiskey and stormed of the office.
I’m sure Chase would be so delighted to see me.
