Chapter 5 Blinded by love

💝Nathalia💝

He drove us in silence heading home.

I could've just ran away from the hospital and i would be free from him forever but I didn't.

I didn't want to jeopardize my baby's future and i also feared for my life.

What if he catches up with me?

I sighed and bit my lip.....

Maybe I'm a bit senseless about this decision of coming back with him.

From the passenger seat, i tilted my head to view his face.

He seemed calm and quiet....it was hard to read the expression on his face though.

He probably beats the crap out of me and stuff but he's still the man i fell in love with and I'd be lying if I say I don't love him no more.

One day, he'll realize i do love him and he'll change and love me too.

I guess....

I inhaled the fresh breeze and allowed it blow on my face.

It's been long i inhaled such breeze.

Not while I'm always indoors.

I sighed deeply when he screeched to a stop.

Sooner than expected....aww! I wanted it to take longer...how did we get home quickly?

I got down from the car and was about to enter the house when....

"Hey...um hi". I heard a feminine voice and hauled around to see who it was.

A pretty woman in her thirties I guess stood with a huge smile plastered on her face. Beside her, stood a little girl of about five years old.

"I'm Megan". She said, walking up to me.

"I just moved in....I live close to you guys...so...neighbors??".

I quickly stole a glance at Thomas and saw his once calm looking face scrunch up as he saw the lady.

Uh oh..

I returned my gaze to the woman and saw her still waiting for me to respond to her greetings.

"Oh...um hi Megan..." I faked a smile.

"This is my daughter, Emily". She patted the little girl's head.

"Say hi to our new neighbors Emily". She told her.

"Hiii". The girl waved frantically, with a dimpled smile.

She was so cute.

I waved back at her...

"And...you're??" Her mother faced me.

"I...I ..I'm Nathalia". I said.

"Oh wow, alright then, we'll be seeing more of each other now right? I mean we could be friends right??" She asked.

"Uh...I think so". I drawled.

No...I definitely don't think so..

She turned to look at Thomas...

"Your husband right?"

"Hi, Mister....."

"Roberts....Thomas Roberts". I quickly replied her.

"Hi Mr Thomas". She waved.

He ignored her and walked towards our doorpost.

"Um...he's having a bad day". I whispered to her, to cover up.

"Oh... okay, I understand". She smiled.

"Yeah... I'll leave now...".

"Get your ass down here you!" Thomas yelled from the doorpost.

"I'm coming honey". I yelled back, hurrying to meet him.

"What were you doing with that bimbo?" He scowled at me, shoving me inside by my arm, roughly.

"I...I wasn't doing anything...she...she was just trying to greet us". I stuttered a reply.

"I don't want to ever see you discussing with her again....not like you'll even have the opportunity to see her...I'm just telling you so you'll avoid her even in your dreams!".

"Yes sir". I gulped down nothing.

"Good! Now go prepare my breakfast...it better be good or else you're good as dead!" He said with clenched teeth.

"Yes sir". I bowed and hurried to the kitchen.

Few minutes later, I injured myself while chopping onions quickly.

I yelped and blew on the wound.

"The fuck is wrong with you wench?!" He yelled from the sitting room.

"I'm so sorry". I apologized and continued blowing on my wound.

It really hurt bad.

"Why are you taking so long?!"

"I'm coming honey!"

"Who are you calling honey?!"

"Sir... it'll be ready in a jiffy sir". I corrected myself.

"I'm starving!!"

Like I'm not also starving...

I suddenly felt a wave of weariness hit me and i had to lean on something before i could stand on my feet.

What is happening to my body?

Why do i feel weak all of a sudden?

I began to breathe heavily....

Stopping what I was doing, i dropped to the floor slowly and held my head which felt dizzy.

"Where is my food woman?!"

I tried to reply but was too tired to even talk.

Then I heard scuffling of feet which meant he was coming to the kitchen.

"I fucking told you to answer me whenever I ask you a...." His voice trailed off when he sighted me on the floor.

I looked up at him, surprised and scared.

"I...." I wanted to say something...but what would I tell him?

"ARE YOU OUT OF YOUR GODDAMNED MIND BITCH?!" He thundered, glaring daggers down at me.

I tried to stand up, but ended up slipping back to my position.

"I'm sorry....I..I just feel so weak". My voice broke as i stared up at him, with pleading eyes.

He pinched the bridge of his nose and I knew he was frustrated.

"Get up now!" He ordered.

"Okay sir". I stretched out my hand to him..

"Please help me up sir".

He glared at me again before yanking me up by my hair..

"Oww". I yelped and fell towards him, my head meeting his chest.

"Pardon my clumsiness...." I said quickly and withdrew myself.

"I'll fucking break your head if you touch me again". He said.

I nodded quickly and went back to preparing breakfast.

"What happened to your finger huh?" He asked, staring at my injured finger that made it almost impossible for me to cook.

"I...I mistakenly cut it sir".

"Stupid wench!" He scoffed.

"You can't do anything right.... I'll order my breakfast, go ahead and prepare your infected meal and eat it yourself...I won't eat what you prepare with that bloody finger". He spat at me and left the kitchen.

************************************

Later in the night....

8:00pm..

"I'll go get a bitch to f*ck this night, you should use the guest room tonight".

I stared at Thomas, dumbfounded.

"No sir you can't just go bring a lady into our matrimonial home". I said, slightly pissed.

"Oh, now you're talking back at me?" He asked.

"No" I murmured, to avoid getting hit.

"Well, you should do as i say coz right now, I'm horny and i can't go about f*cking you". He said.

"I'm your wife". I replied, lowering my head.

"You're pregnant...and I can't imagine screwing a pregnant bitch...Nahh".

"You can't bring her here". I blurted, then bit my lip.

"Who the fuck do you think you are to tell me what to do or not?" He scowled at me.

"Please, don't do this to me". I pleaded with him.

"Does it look like I'm hitting you? Or do you wanna get hit this night?" He asked.

"No...don't bring another lady into the house.... that's what I mean...if you want someone to satisfy you, I'm here". I gulped down nothing.

He suddenly laughed and patted my head...

"Look at you...you can't satisfy me yunno...". Then he gripped my hair tight.

"Now don't fucking tell me what to do stupid wench!"

I winced and cried out to him to let go.

"There's just one thing that's keeping me from bashing your blockhead in right now....and that's the baby in your stomach...or else...you'd be good as dead! I mean how dare you try to stop me from doing what i want huh?".

"I..I..I'm sorry... please".

He let go of my hair and smiled...

"Now, that's a good girl, go lay the bed okay and spare her one of those your sexy nightgowns. I'll be here with her soon, make sure you're in the guest room by then".

I simply nodded and watched him leave the house, then locked the door.

How can he be so...??

Ugh!!! How dare he??

*

Soon, he arrived home, kissing a much more younger lady, while i stood upstairs and watched.

He actually went to look for someone...are you kidding me?

"My Gosh! You're fucking hot bitch! I think tonight is gonna be my best sex ever!" He said and continued kissing her while i rolled my eyes.

It was really pissing me off seeing him like that with the girl....no bitch!

"So, you're single right?" She asked him, allowing him explore her neck.

"Affirmative....now enough with the question, let's get to business....I didn't bring you to interrogate me bitch!" He said and slapped her ass, while she squealed and jumped on him, wrapping her legs round him...

That's it...

Fuck Thomas and the bitch!

I stormed down the stairs and approached them in the sitting room.

"Hey!" I called, startling them.

They both turned to face me, with confusion written all over the lady's face.

"Who are you?" She asked.

"Isn't it obvious?" I asked in return.

She turned to look at Thomas questionably and then, when she didn't get an answer from him, she faced me.

"Who the hell are you? And what are you doing here?!" She asked.

"That's supposed to be my line sweetheart...I'm his wife you see? His freaking pregnant wife!!" I yelled, unexpectedly.

"Is it true Thomas?" She faced Thomas.

He still didn't reply, but was glaring daggers at me. If only eyes could kill...I would've been dead.

"Get out now!" I pointed at the door, ordering her to leave.

"Thomas?" She touched him...

"Now!!!" I yelled, startling her and she grabbed her purse....

"Fuck you Thomas". She slapped him and stormed out of the house.

Thomas held his now red cheek as he bit his lip angrily.

Wow! I didn't expect her to do that to him... now he looked really pissed.

"How dare she raise her filthy hand on me?!" He growled.

"And how dare you ruin my night?" He turned to face me, inching closer to me.

This isn't good....at...all...

I took some paces backwards away from him.

"I...I...I'm sorry sir...I didn't know what came over me...I...I...I'm really sorry". I stuttered as i moved away from him, then a wall blocked my movement.

I looked like a cornered prey at the moment.

Him, the vicious looking predator ready to pounce.

Me, the trembling prey, scared to death.

"Thomas....please I beg you, for our child's sake... I'll do anything you want.... anything...please don't hit me". I pleaded, with tears already trickling down my face.

"You ruined my dinner!" He yelled at me.

"Please..." I whimpered.

"Who do you think you are?!"

"I won't do that again....I promise.."

He suddenly grabbed my arm and pulled me to himself.

"You ruined my dinner". He repeated in a more menacing tone and i shivered.

"I'll have you as my dinner instead.."

With that said, he shoved me to the couch roughly and I barely missed hitting my head.

He pounced on me and began ripping my clothes like a beast.
