Dear Ex-Wife You Are MINE (Victoria and Alessandro)

Chapter 100 A promise...

VICTORIA'S POV...

I walked inside our bedroom but Aless was not there. Frowning, I came downstairs in search of him, he

wasn't there either.

Didn't he just come out a few ago from the home office, where did he disappear all of a sudden?

suddenly, I heard,

"Young Mistress, are you searching for something?" Sophia asked from beside her.

I nodded. "Yeah, did you see Aless? Wasn't he here just a few ago?" Please check at N/ôvel(D)rama.Org.

"Oh, young master has gone outside. He said he has some plans for tonight. He was in a happy mood.

I thought you know?" She watched me with concern.

And then only I realised that Aless might have gone to prepare the surprise he was talking about. I

nodded my head. "Yeah, I know. I just didn't realise he would go for it now."

Sophia smiled at me. "Please take rest, ma'am, and let me know if you need anything."

"Sure, I will."

Sophia walked away and get busy with her work and I was left alone. Sitting in the living room, I waited

for my husband for some time. Yet, there was no trace of him.

I felt a little bored and frustrated. For some reason, my mind is having a strange feeling of trouble. I

don't know what does it mean, but something that feels a little off.

I guess, maybe because of the tension of the exhibition? Or, it's because of Dominic’s call? I don't

know.

I watched my phone screen for the eleventh time only to find twenty minutes passed only. I know, I

know, being too much curious about my husband's disappearance but is it my fault?

My pregnancy turned me impatient and restless. And if it is to blame, then blame Alessandro. He put

the baby in me!

Sigh...

I leaned back on the couch and slowly, my eyelids turned heavy and in a few seconds, I was drowned

in the darkness...

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

"Oh no! No-no-no! Please don't do this!" I cried hard, tears shedding out of me violently.

Staring at the black shadow that is covered in all-black clothes. The face was hidden behind the back

hood, that is near to me with a knife in its hand.

"Please... Don’t do this to me! Don't" I pleaded again, trying to move but I couldn't.

Then only I noticed that my legs and hands are tied up as I am lying on the thin bed. The place was

dimly lightened and I am in the middle of the huge cold room, that felt like a death room.

Suddenly, a wild laugh echoed in the whole room, shattering my heart in fear. My eyes widened as that

shadow came so close to me.

"No way to escape, baby. I will take this out of you." It's a voice. A male tone. Rough and broken. Filled

with unfamiliarity.

His hand stretched. Even his hand is dark. He touched my baby bump, caressing it with the sharp knife

that gleamed even in the low light. A cold shiver ran down my spine. I struggled hard to get out of his

grip. But, in vain.

And he laughed again. Wilder this time, making me flinch and cry harder.

"Please! Let me go! Don't do this to me!"

The black shadow bends down to my face. He is smelling like alcohol and smoke. Not general smoke

but a different one.

I tilted my head and closed my eyes shut.

No-no-no-no! Aless! Where are you!?

My soul screamed for my husband to come and get me. But...

"Ria... Victoria..."

Suddenly, I heard a familiar tone from afar. So familiar. It rang into my ear.

Wait... Wh...ho is it? I tried to look for the familiar sound in the dark.

"Victoria!" The voice came nearer.

Alessandro! My husband is here! I started running in the direction of his tone in the darkness. Want to

find him desperately.

"Alessandro!" I shouted for him.

"Victoria!" I heard him again and suddenly felt a soft touch on my body.

As if that pulled me somewhere and I shuddered violently, before my eyes opened with a jerk.

There is he! Alessandro! My love! Those blue eyes Watching me in concern.

I did not realise the situation but him only and without a thought, I moved and hugged him tightly, trying

to hide myself inside him.

The familiar scent of his started calling my anxious nerves as I tried to snuggle more into him. And

slowly realised that I was in a nightmare. That moment was not happening in reality.

I stayed there for God knows how long before he let broke the hug but didn't let me go fully.

His perfect brows knitted together in tension. "What happened, baby? What's wrong?"

My lips parted but nothing came out but a sob. My cheeks tickled as I watched him frowning more.

He raised his hand and traced my cheeks. When he withdrew his hand, I realised his fingertips are wet.

Oh! I am crying!

"Victoria... Baby, you are scaring me now. Are you not feeling well? Should I call the doctor?" He asked,

turning anxious.

I shook my head and kept my head on his chest. Listening to his slightly raised heartbeat, calmed me

down in an instant.

I don't need a doctor. He is my doctor and my medicine both.

His hands wrapped around me, hugging me tightly. I inhaled a sharp breath, eyes still open. Not daring

to close my eyes. I don't want to relive that nightmare again!

"I... I saw a very bad dream, Aless." I shivered thinking about that moment even in his warm embrace.

"I saw that someone is trying to take our baby away... I..." I broke down in tears.

The rememberation of the past even coursed through me. When I lost our first child. Aless didn't know

it yet and I don't want to share the same pain, fear and guilt at this point.

I will wait for now. I know, he would be angry at me, but I can manage it. I just don't want to send him

into the same trauma that I had suffered years ago. I just want to forget that past which did not belong

to me.

and only embrace this present that is all mine.

"Shh... It's alright. It was just a bad dream." His soft voice came to my ear. "I am here with you. Nothing

will happen to you and our baby. I won't let that happen ever."

His voice and assurance soothe my wounded soul. Maybe the scar wasn't removable but it could be

filled with so much happiness that those memories would never dare to come out.

I nodded my head, agreeing with him, trusting all his words. My one hand touched my belly and I felt

content much as I snuggled close to him, hiding myself in his arms and soothing scent.

This is me. My life. With the love of my life.

Today, I also make a promise to you Aless and our baby. I will be a protective mother and a loving wife.

I will not let anyone come near us to hurt my family.

This is a promise of a wife. A mother and a woman...
