Diary Of A Bitch Chapter 37

He looked up to me with a stern expression .

"Next time you personalise our baby, I won't take it lightly with you,come let me help you up the stairs" . And before I could protest, he swept me off my feet literally and emotionally . What type of man accepts another man's child wholeheartedly?, is it because of what he stands to gain?, will he treat my baby the way Susan treated me . The disturbing thoughts, coupled with his scent made me dizzy .

" Can I trust you? " I asked foolishly .

"I know it might be difficult but try to" . That rich deep voice gave me a.s.surance, and I surprisingly believed .

" I'd never touch you,don't be afraid about that" . Huh?, a deep shade of pink crept up to my face, I haven't even thought of that .

"You look adorable, shall I sing you a lullaby?" . He gently placed me down on the bed, Wait, adorable?, lullaby?

" I'm not 5 years old, OK?", I glowered at him . This is becoming embarra.s.sing .

"Sleep tight" . I said,expecting him to leave after tucking me in, but he slid in next to me and held me in his arms

" Please let me see you sleep, I promise I'll leave the moment you're asleep" . I wanted to protest but his arms felt warm and comforting, so I swallowed up the words that was at the tip of my tongue and enjoyed the comfort of his arms .

"Your mother is over the moon . . . " . Susan's malicious face smiled at me

" . . . . What should I call you . . . . Virgin Mary or Queen Elisabeth? . . . " . Kelvin's face also came closer

" You're nothing but a wh.o.r.e . . . . " . Lizzy's dark gaze looked murderous

"You're a disgrace to the c.o.kers . . . " . Dads glare sent daggers my way

"I thought I knew you . . . ", Becky's face was seen this time .

And everything kept echoing and flashing at a very high speed then all of a sudden, a gunshot was heard . . . . . then darkness and . . . .

" BETRAYAL!!!!!! " . I woke up screaming, panting like an Kenyan that just won a Marathon race, startling Henry that was already asleep .

" Are you OK?", he asked and stood up to the bedside to get be a gla.s.s of water . It wasn't until I felt the cold gla.s.s connected with my lips that I snapped of my daze . I gulped down the whole gla.s.s of water, I was still trembling and sweating . He collected the gla.s.s from me and placed it on the bedside table, then pulled me into his arms .

"it's all just a nightmare, you'll be fine,I'm here for you,we're here for you, don't panic . . . . " . he continued to comfort me with his words as he patted my hair continuously . I didn't know when exhaustion took over but my sleep was dreamless . I woke up to intense heat and brightness and blanked out for 60 seconds before remembering where I was . I searched around the room but Mr . Gorgeous was nowhere in sight . Sighing at my stupidity for expecting him to be at home at 11am in the morning . I got up from bed and strolled into the bathroom . After my morning routine, I brought out my diary and shared my nightmare experience, I shuddered in terror as I remembered those terrifying faces . I was almost done writing when someone knocked .

" Come in" . I immediately closed my book and his it under my pillow . I was expecting to see Henry but I saw two beautiful female servants walking through the door instead . one was with a floral gown and the other was jewelry sets .

"Good morning madam, Master asked us to dress you up for your wedding" .
