Meeting My Abductor Again - Chapter 20

I wake up with a bit of pain in between my legs. I look down at the sheets and I see that there are blood stains which I shudder a bit at. I look to see Axel is still asleep, with one of his arms around me.

I slowly creep out of his arms and I head to the bathroom, I look at myself in the mirror after I open the water in the shower. I take off Axel’s shirt that I am wearing, and I walk into the shower, the water was really hot but it still fell good on my skin. When I’m done showering and I have put on a shirt and some sport shorts,

I tie my hair into a bun and I get back into the bed, which rouses Axel awake. “You smell nice Talia” as he pulls me into his arms.

“Thank you” as he starts tracing kisses down my neck.

Which lead to me and Axel doing it for the second time, I felt exhausted and I went to sleep immediately. When I woke up it was in the mid-afternoon.

I put on my shirt and sports shorts that I had on earlier and I see that there is a breakfast tray. I gobble down my breakfast and I wonder where Axel is.

I see on the table there is a note from him “Off to work, I will see you later”

I decide to change into my bikini and go for a swim. I walk down the beach as I soak in the sun rays and the breeze that is softly caressing my face and blowing my hair in all direction.

I sit by the beach chair and I enjoy my afternoon in peace and serenity.

I think about how was married at such a young age, who knew a few months back that I would be here in this position. If anyone had told me that I would be here, I would have laughed in their faces.

I was too tired to try and make new friends, then I head back into the hotel and I decide to watch TV before dinner time.

When dinner approaches, I am forced to eat alone. I watch performances and I start to wonder where Axel was? I hope he wasn’t regretting last night, or he was fed up with me. Had I not pleased him enough? But how could I as this was my first time.

I go back to the hotel and I decide to go and soak myself in bath. I find candles in the cupboard and I light them, and I open the bath water as I put in bath salts. I close the tap as the water is full. I put on a bit of music that is soothing.

I climb in the bath and lean back, as I close my eyes and let myself get lost in the music.

I feel someone touching my arm, which causes me to jump a bit. I open my eyes and I find Axel naked. Which leads me to turn away quickly as I blush.

“You can look” as he chuckles.

“Move up a bit, I want to get in”

I do so, and he gets in and I’m seating in between his legs.

He puts his hand around my waist and he pulls me back into his arms so that I am leaning against him.

He nuzzles my neck “What did you do today?”

“Nothing much, I went to the beach, watched Tv then I had dinner and you?”

“I had a lot of work that I have to take care of”

“what work?”

“Nothing that you have to worry about”

“Okay” as I drop the subject.

We finish our bath without saying much to each other, it seemed as if Axel had a lot on his mind and it seemed as if he didn’t want to talk about it.

I change into by night attire and I put on moisturizer and then find Axel lying on the bed. I walk over to the bed, and I’m feeling very exhausted.

I get in next to Axel and he places a kiss on my mouth, which I return. I didn’t want Axel to get tired of me and sell me to someone else if I had refused and told him that I was feeling up to it. I was taken for a reason and I had to keep him happy at all cost, especially after the London incident.

Marriage wasn’t a safety net for me as I could be still easily discarded.

He suddenly pulls away, “roll over to your side” which I do. He puts his arms around my waist and my back is on front.

“Go to sleep”

I sigh in relief and with that I drift off.
