Chapter 3: I hate my husband

The day ended with me securing 2 other collaborations so I went back home happy about myself. But my smile vanished when I stepped into the foyer and saw Victor sitting on a couch with a glass of wine in hand while looking at the fire burning from the fire place. That is when I realized that working indeed made me forget about him but seeing him now is like bringing me down to a short beautiful dream to hell.

“Good Afternoon” I greeted but he didn't answer and instead finished up his glass of wine in one go and placed it on the glass table infront of him before standing up as I was about to leave. He walked towards me his gaze on me, looking down at me like I was the worse thing that ever happened in his life. I guess I was.

“It has been a long time since we have done it hasn't it?” He asked standing some few centimeters away from me. I looked up at him with a frown and a bewildered expression. How could he expect us to still have sexual intercourse after the way he has been treating me. And the other of wine emanating through him was unbearable I wanted to gag.

“What am I to you? An accessory? A cumdump? What is wrong with you?” I asked with a frown. I couldn't comprehend why he was acting like this with me. Why was he so cruel? He could just divorce me if he didn't love me but no. He likes seeing me in pain. he couldn't even have the decency to reply to my greetings but was willing to have sex!?.

“Well, to me you are just that. Exactly what you said the only problem is you are not the kind of accessories I like on me so I will just use you as a ‘cumdump’ which is the only thing you seem to be good at” I was frustrated and hurt but I didn't show it, I tried to keep my cool and decided to walk away but he held my hand and gripped it strongly making me feel pain.

“Let go of me right now! I am not letting you touch me again” I tried to remove my hand from his rough grip but my efforts were useless, I felt like my hand was going to break it will definitely leave bruises. I started hitting his chest with my other hand while yelling at him to let go but he caught it and threw me on the sofa he was sat on. Tears fell down my eyes as I looked up at him, seeing him unbuckle his belt and climb on the sofa, on top of me.

“I will do whatever I want with you whether you like it or not. You are ‘my’ article and you shall always be that” he said smilling like the maniac he was. I knew that even if I wanted to fight it will be useless he will just hurt me more so I just let him use me to his heart content while I cried and begged for mercy. He went in dry not caring if it hurted me or not and when he was done he came on my face while I didn't cum, like I even wanted to. He arranged back his clothes and went upstairs to bed while I cried on that sofa for a good hour before deciding to go up to the spair room at this point it was already my room I couldn't sleep in the same bed with him anymore.

I pitied every woman who wanted to be at my place they don't know what kind of man he is and what I go through every day, if they knew they will never want to be here. The next day I woke up with my body hurting and my hand blue from his hold, it hurted so much that I wanted to cry but my eyes were red and big enough I didn't want Emma to shout at me. Well! Now that I think, I have to go to the spa with Emma today, she can't see me like this. I always tried to cover all the bruises Victor inflected on me so that Emma doesn't see them and loose her mind but if we go to the spa she would definitely see the ‘Hate’ bites on my neck; this wasn't no Love bites. And the bruises on my hand. I had to make up an excuse as fast as possible it was already 10 am and we told each other to meet at her favorite spa at 11 am.

‘Hi Emma, Victor asked me to go to an event with him in 30 minutes I won't be able to go with you today’ I texted before going to the bathroom and looking at my reflection, I almost cried because of how miserable I looked my eyes were so red, my cheeks flushed and neck bruised. And the worse was the black patches under my eyes like I did 10 years without any sleep. My long brown hair was a mess so I combed it while fighting the will to cry. Victor had destroyed me in every way possible even using my right hand is now a struggle because of the pain.

After being done with my bath I went back to my room and saw a text from Emma saying ‘Oh baby, you will spend the day with that devil!? Be strong if you need anything I am here’ With a sad emoji at the end, I smiled at this and got ready to work, I decided to skip breakfast because they were just days when I felt like not eating anything especially the days after my wedding.

I bandage my hand and wore a white chemise with an office skirt, I also didn't style my hair today because I wanted it to help me cover the bites on my neck and I decided not to apply any makeup today but I did my skincare though. And left the house. I didn't say a word to him as we passed by each other, he called for me but I didn't answer and went straight to my black mercedes, I know not answering will cause me problems but I didn't give a shit and asked my chauffer to start the car and we left.

When we arrived in my office I was thinking of a way to link SunX which is a Sunglasses company with my own company and I noted all my ideas. And my team and I chosed the best idea out of all of them then we wrote some detail paragraphs of the storyline and a way to make SunX accept it. At 4pm I was already in the car for SunX company but there was a lot of traffic. My assistant Reia was sat next to me and showed me the director of SunX through her tablet, it was a 38 year old man, he looked older than his age and lacked hair on the middle of his head but whatever so he was the one I had to talk with I guess.

We arrived in front of a 50 story building, it was enormous with a lot of cars packed inside I was suddenly nervous, how can a Sunglasses company be this big?. I decided to enter with my assistant next to me and I honestly felt small I didn't know where to go nor what to do. There were a lot of people entering and going and I was so nervous that I could feel my breathing shorten

“Do you need coffee Madame?” Reia politely asked looking at me and I wondered where she would take that coffee right now until she pointed towards a coffee shop at a corner of the floor. I was impressed by its size, the owner must be hella rich. I nodded and we went there so i ordered a hot Americano with no sugar, but Reia didn't want anything so we left and went to the concierge

“Hello Madame I am Lara Lenois, I have a meeting with the Director for a collaboration”

“Oh yes! My name is Andrea nice to meet you Madame Lenois. You just have to go to the 25th floor that is where SunX is” She replied with a smile sounding excited to talk with me like she was a fan. I nodded and we started moving towards the elevator that is when I notices the little glances people gave me but they all seem respectful non of them approached like they were mad and started yelling for a picture. So my nervousness got down in an instant, SunX was at the 25th that means they were other companies here right? Or am i wrong, what is even this place?. Anyways that is interesting.

It took a long time but we finally reached the 25ft floor and I hastily walked passed the entrance but bumped on a wall. It was strange because it felt like it was clothed until realization reached me and I looked up to find non other than Xander Heil in front of me. His neatly combed back black hair with a piece of hair falling on his face, his piercing dark blue eyes, well defined jaw line, long straight nose and pink lips not to forget his imposing height of 6ft2 and his well sculpted body who all made him look like a Greek god was impossible to forget.
