CHAPTER 26

I am so sore. Damn it!

I embarrassed myself for repeatedly letting him fuck me.

I can't even walk properly for Pete's sake!

We were eating brunch; if I hadn't complained about being hungry he wouldn't have let me rest.

"You didn't sign it?" I accused him and spit out food.

He smirked and leaned on the table. "Do you really expect me to let you go?" he asked me again.

I held my breath; I couldn't believe him.

"So that means I'm still married to you?"

He smiled and was accompanied by a nod.

I looked at him irritably. "I told you before I leave, that I want an annulment. We fucking had an agreement." I said firmly.

He immediately returned my sharp gaze.

"First of all, we didn't have an agreement. You made me choose, Cassandra. I told you to send me the papers, but I didn't say I would sign it," he said and smirked.

Then he acted as if he remembered something.

"Second, stop cursing baby, or else I'm going to fuck you hard on this table." He threatened me; that made my jaw drop.

"Aren't you tired yet?"

Damn!

He laughed and gave me a peck on my lips, which stunned me.

His laugh... It's too good in my ears.

"I will never get enough of you wife." He sweetly said and continued eating.

I looked like a robot that continues to eat.

I was stunned when I came to my senses. He immediately turned his attention to me.

"Can I borrow your phone?"

Shit. Why did I lose the memory of calling home. Maybe they were worried about me.

He glared at me as if I would do something horrible.

"Why?" he asked simply with a glare.

"I will call home. For Pete's sake, Andrei, I also have a family that will worry about me," was my hysterical explanation.

He took the phone out of his pocket and presented it to me. I took it and tried to stand up to get away, but he immediately looked at me badly.

"Call whoever that is, HERE. Be sure Cassandra that it is not your man, or else I will immediately drop you here on the table and I will make you moan for him to hear." His sharp threat rang in my ears.

I'm going crazy...

Instead of being scared, I was even more excited by what he said.

I shuddered at Mommy's number. His gaze remained on me while my eyesight avoided him.

"Hello? Andrei, did you get a call?" Mommy replied on the other line.

He didn't change his number.

It's funny to think that Mommy still has his number on her cellphone.

I cleared my throat and put the phone back to my ear.

"M-mom," I stammered.

"Cassandra? Is that really you? But... How?"

"Long story Mommy. I got drunk last night and shit happened." I said.

"Lala, is that Mommy?" his little voice.

I automatically smiled. Hearing his voice makes me at peace.

"Mom can I talk to..." I stopped for a moment and looked in front of me.

I close my eyes loudly and whisper softly.

"Adrian," I said.

Mommy immediately gave it to him.

"Hello Mommy?" he called me.

"Hello there baby. How are you?" I hesitated to say because of the person in front of me.

Jeez! He might think it was Rozz.

My son can't hear me moaning.

I was complacent because Andrei didn't seem to care about what I was talking about. He just kept eating, even though I knew he was listening to me.

"I'm fine Mommy. You didn't go home last night. Are you with Godmother Ayesha?" he asked me.

I let out a deep sigh. "Uhmm. Baby I'm with my other friend, but I'm safe, don't worry. Gonna go home later, want something?" I spoke softly and then ate some food.

He was silent for a moment on the other line, which surprised me. I swallowed what I ate and drank quickly.

"Baby?" I called.

"Yes Mommy?" my son responded.

"Why didn't you say anything else? Is there a problem?" I asked worriedly. I could see Andrei staring at me.

"Nothing Mommy. Don't mind me. I just missed you." He said softly.

He's my child, so I know if something is wrong.

"Adrian, what is it? Just tell me what you want baby. I'm going to give it to you," I said.

"I just want Daddy, Mommy. Can I see him?" He was sad.

I tightened my grip on the phone and looked in front of me. He was leaning back in his chair and watching my every move.

I closed my eyes and slowly opened them. "Soon baby. Soon." I answered.

"Okay Mommy. I understand. By the way, Uncle Rozz called a while ago, asking if you're home."

Shit!

"Okay baby. If Uncle Rozz calls again, tell him that I'm with Ayesha okay? Tell him that I lost my phone." I bit my tongue as I dropped a lie.

"Okay Mommy. Auntie Azaia is here, I'm going to play with her. Bye, Mommy, I love you," he said goodbye to me.

"I love you too," I responded, and the line went dead.

I slowly handed the phone to him. Waiting for his question, but it didn't come.

"I need to go home," I said as I continued eating.

"I said you are going to stay here." He said immediately.

I looked at him annoyed as he resisted the cold stare.

"Stop pestering me Andrei. Me fucking with you doesn't mean anything but pure lust. You can grab any girl and fuck her anytime you want."

He quickly approached me and pulled me upright. I winced at the sudden movement, due to the pain in my lower region.

"Why the hell would I do that? My wife is here." He said and touched my ass.

"Andrei!" My eyes widened.

He smirked and gave me a punishing kiss.

I growled when he bit my lips. I could taste my own blood while he continued kissing me.

"Be thankful you are sore baby, because if not, you'd be moaning at the table." He whispered after kissing me.

I felt like my blood all went to my face. Damn it!

"Mention your friend's name, I will forget that your pussy hurts." He warned and walked away from me.

I sat weakly. I heard him chuckle.

"We're just married by papers Andrei. I already forgot that I got married," I said lifelessly and hurried to the door to get out.

That's how shocked and disappointed I was, to realize that he put a lock on his condo.

I heard his slow steps approaching me. I did not look at him, I just raised my hand to the door and dipped my head on it.

What a witty bastard.

He hugged me from behind and put his head on my shoulder.

"I told you. You're not gonna leave me again. Four years is enough Cassandra, it's time for you to hear me out baby." He sighed and kissed my head.

I smiled bitterly even though he could not see it. "What else do I need to hear? How did you betray me?" I bitterly said. "Enough, Andrei please. I'm tired of you. I've found the man who won't do to me what you did. Please let me be happy even once."

I felt his hug tighten on me.

"Is it that hard to hear; my explanation?" He questioned.

Little by little, tears welled up in his eyes. I averted my eyes.

"Will that change the fact that I can't see my baby anymore?" I said and looked up so that my tears would not fall.

"Can't we heal together? Do we really need to be apart?" He leaned his head on my shoulder.

I heard his silent sobs while hugging me. "Five days baby. Just give me five days with you and I'll stop." He declared.
