Get Me Married

Chapter 35

Chapter 35: Attraction and care

“Please…just let me go” I screamed at my captor. Tears were coming down my cheeks and my heart was beating harder in my chest. I could feel my breath coming short the more I screamed and kicked against my captor. But he was adamant about letting me go, he dug his nails into my arms and caused me even more pains than the ones he had caused me. My skin was bruised up and bloody. I was on the floor and everything looked blurry in my eyes. The only thing that was registered in my mind was the pain in my body pleading to be left alone. I wasn’t so sure I could take more of the torture, it was just too much for me to take all at once.

I slowly felt his hands on my thighs, trailing his finger all over my leg, then he moved up upward, feeling every part of my body without any from of restraint from me and slapping on my skin as his way of torturing me even more. I slowly turned my eyes to look at his face, he had an evil smirk on it and he slapped me across my face. I immediately tasted blood in my mouth and the downpour of my tears increased.

“Just let me go please” I pleaded with him. But he didn’t. Instead he laughed and circled his hands around my neck. Then I felt my breath leaving me and my weak body struggled against him. I thrashed, ignoring the pain I was feeling all over so he could let me go, I just kept thrashing, looking for ways to get my breath back. My breath was slowly going and I couldn’t find air, his grip on my neck was too strong and he was out to kill me.

“Genesis….hey…no…” Someone pulled me away from his grip and my eyes opened. A panic attack sets in almost immediately and I found myself back in my room, I drew a long hard breath and a wheezing sound escaped my throat. I tried getting up from my bed but I fell down to the ground unable to feel my limp, it was like my blood stopped flowing in my body. My heart was in pain, it was so hot and felt like it was being torn into shreds, my lungs were on fire and I just couldn’t breath no more.

Then I felt someone arms around me. Jordan’s cologne filled my nostrils and his hands on me made me feel safe.

“Shhh ..take a deep breath” he said calmly while running his hands through my hair.

“Nothing happened. One breath at a time” he said. I followed his instructions and relaxed my head against his body. I took a deep breath and tried exhaling, I felt the burning in my lungs ease up with the intake of oxygen.

“Again…. Come, a deep breath” he instructed and I did as I was told.

I kept repeating the same process over and over with his voice in my head and his body so close to me till I could no longer feel the burning in my lungs any more. When my breath settled, I felt him tighten his arms around me from behind after taking a deep breath of his own.

The dream I had played back in my head and I realized that it wasn’t going to go away. I was really scared of him and till he was found and locked up, I knew I wouldn’t have peace of mind.

In Jordan’s arms, I felt safe and just didn’t want to leave. So I remained in that same position for a long time without any of us uttering a word. He was in my room again and I should have probably ask him what he was doing there but he just pulled me out of a nasty nightmare and helped me calm my nerves. I didn’t want to ask that, he was there and he had helped me was all that mattered to me.

After a long time of staying in that position. I felt him pull away and place his hand underneath my legs. He lifted me up from the ground in a bridal style and placed me back on the bed, gently. He sat beside me on the bed, quietly, while he watched me. I said nothing also, simply becaus didn’t know what to say and just couldn’t find my voice at that instant. I took my time and he looked comfortable enough, he didn’t look like he was going anywhere or in a haste. So I took my time, a lot of it.

“I have to get them all. My kidnappers are still on the loose and …”

“Shhh..we will get them, I promise” his voice came out dim and calm, it soothed my spirit.

“You just have to stop being so scared. You are safe now and we will get them and get the master mind behind all this” he said with a determination in his voice that I have never heard before. I smiled faintly and lied down on my side so I could look at him. He was still Jordan alright, the handsome prince of the chase and he still looked as hot even when it was so late at night. But his attitude towards me, that was exactly what I didn’t understand.

“Do you have a personality disorder?” I almost blurted out but swallowed it back in knowing I didn’t really want to say that to him. He might have ended up killing me that night himself. He met my gaze with his and my heart caught in my throat for that moment. It got me thinking. If he was actually never in the picture, Jordan and I would have probably had a lovely marriage and if mom Leona never lied about things, our relationship would have been better. I knew that and thought of telling him how I ended up getting married to him, but decided against it. He was calm, I was calm and it was better that way.

He looked away from me and looked ahead while relaxing himself on a pillow at his back.

“Go to bed already” he said and a sad smile spread to my lips. I didn’t want to sleep, sleeping felt like hell for me, the only place I could be tormented.

“I’m fine. You can go back to your room” I said, ignoring the pain in my heart.

“You are scared” he said and turned back to me.

“Nothing is going to happen to you” he said while staring into my eyes. I gave him a faint smile.

“I am fine”I assured him and heard him smirk.

“Close your eyes” he ordered. I did as I was told because something told me he wasn’t going to take no for an answer.

“Why are you being so nice to me again?” I asked him and resisted the urge to open my eyes to look at him.

“You didn’t deserve what happened to you. I want you out of my life, but not this way and not in such a state” he replied and my heart dropped. I didn’t know why, but it did and I felt disappointed at his words.

I remained quiet and suddenly felt his palms on my arms. It felt warm and felt like they were supposed to be there. I sighed and relaxed at the feeling.

It was late in the morning and she was still sound asleep. I stared at her face and her eyes. I could still see the blue in her eyes in my head even when her eyes were shut. She looked calm and there was this peace to her, yet a beautiful sight she was, just like the first time I had seen her, on our wedding

A sudden frowned appeared on my face at that thought and I got up from where I had laid all through out the night. I turned to the door and walked out of her room and immediately bumped into Samantha. She had the look that said she was ready to kill someone.

“Sam…..

Slap…..

She was really mad, for her to hit me and I knew that. For a woman I loved, I understood and knew why she was angry. I had gone out of my room, and left her alone for the second time. The tingling burning impact on my cheek made me rub my palms on my cheek. Ccontent © exclusive by Nô/vel(D)ra/ma.Org.

“You bastard. You go to her now?” She yelled. And the sound of her voice made me turn to Genesis’s door. Sam’s voice was too loud and I feared she was going to wake her up.

I groaned inwardly at that thought and walked away from that spot, hating the thought of thinking of her too much.

“Are you walking out on me?” Sam screamed from behind me and I stopped and turned to her, her eyes was blazing hot with anger and veins were popping from her skin. I wanted to tell her how sorry I was and explain to her why I just came out of the room of her nemesis but the thought of speaking so loudly and waking her up was more loud in my heart and it was what I cared about

I walked over to where she stood and held her arm. She struggled against me and pulled hard but I gave her no chance and pulled her along behind me till we were away from the door of the room I came out from. Then I let go and turned to her. She glared at me, hard and angry.

“It isn’t what you think?” I said calmly.

“What I think. This was where you were the other night and this was where you are again today and you tell me that it isn’t what I think?” She yelled.

“No, it isn’t” I snapped.

“Look, what ever she went through had an impact on her emotionally. She can not sleep alone because she is scared, I am just…”

“It’s none of your business if she can’t sleep”

“What do you mean it’s none of my business, she was kidnapped in my house, as my wife” I yelled and regretted it the minute I said it. I saw her eyes widen and tears came running down.

“You care about her” she cried.

“You are attracted to her” she added and I was taken aback for a while. I tried protesting on what it was she said but found no words.

“Jordan, I want her out of this house or I will leave”
