His Choice Forever novel Chapter 4

School had closed and I was waiting for daddy to come and pick me up. He came but the car scent wasn't nice anymore. It was a mixture of ciggarate and alcohol. We drove off but we didn't take the road which led to our house.

"Daddy, where are we going?" I asked confused.

"Baby, am taking you somewhere that is going to be very fun for you and also me"

"Really?!!!" I said excitedly.

"Yes. Now sit down and hold on. We are going to have a lot of Fun especially you". I was so happy. I and daddy are going to have fun. Its being long since we did something fun together.

It was a dark alley we went to but then I didn't see any fun place so I was confused.

"Daddy, I thought we were going to have fun?" I asked.

"Yes baby, we are. Now, get down from the Car so I can carry you" daddy never carried me but I was happy we were going to have fun. We entered the dark place. There was only a dim light which made the place a little bright and there was also a bed and I became more confused. When I turned to ask daddy what we were doing here, I saw him taking off his trousers and removing his shirt and I became scared.

"Daddy, why are you removing your clothes. I thought we were going to have fun."

"Yes baby and this is the fun". He pushed me forcefully to the bed and started touching me in places I didn't like.

"Daddy, what are you doing?. Get off me!" I said and tried to get out of his grip but then he pinned me harder to the bed and put his lips on mine. I was so scared. He took my first kiss. My father was my first kiss.

"Daddy, stop!!!"

"Baby, we'll soon be having fun"

"Someone help!!!" I screamed

"Oh baby, at this side of the town, no one will hear your screams so just shut up before I loose my temper. Now, let's continue." He was about to kiss me again when I spat on him.

"Tsk tsk. You shouldn't have done that. Now, am angry with you and you deserve a punishment for that" he slapped me and kicked me and beat me up till I almost passed out.

"Now we're done for today. You know you can't tell anyone about this. Not even your mummy cause if you do, I will kill you. If they ever catch me. your mine baby. Your mine. you can't ever love someone because I'll kill him and I'll kill you baby. I'll kil-" I woke up panting. It was all just a dream Emilia. He's no more around. He can't hurt you anymore. Your safe. I got out of bed and checked the time. It was 6:30 in the morning and I still had time before I left for work. I decided to go out for a run but I had to be careful so I wore my wig and lenses cause you never know.

I allowed the fresh breeze to touch me as I ran and I didn't know when I hit a wall. Gosh, I am so clumsy. I was creeped out because the wall had legs and so I looked up to see if it was a magic wall and the world had turned into a dark magic realm but then it was worse. He was standing in front of me looking irritated but soon it turned to a look of recognition and confusion.

"Miss Emily?" he said.

"Good morning sir" I said.

"Oh, I forgot to tell you my name. am your boss. My name is Scott Ryder, CEO of Ryder enterprises as you already know" oh god, I missed his voice. I missed it so damn much. Does he have to punish me more?.

"Miss Emily, are you okay?" I started feeling dizzy. I fainted but before I welcomed the darkness, a pair of strong arms caught me.

"Miss Emily!, Miss Emily!" And I welcomed the darkness.

I opened my eyes and saw a bright light, I immediately closed it back. I just wish the pain would go away. I opened my eyes again and blinked few times trying to adjust to the light. The familiar scent of cinnamon and mint hit me. I missed it so much.

"Miss Emily, are you okay?" He said. I looked at him and then the environment. It was the most expensive apartment I had ever seen. It could buy my apartment more than 10 times and still have enough money to buy another beautiful apartment that could buy mine up to 5times. Well, that's according to my imagination. The memories came back from when I bumped into him to when I fainted. My wig! I looked at my hair and saw it was still brunette and I breathed out a sigh of relief.

"Where am I?" I asked.

"Your in my house" he said.

"Why?"

"Because I didn't know your house and so I just brought you here" he said as a matter of fact.

"Why didn't you just take me to the hospital and leave me there. I could've known it was you." I told him.

"Well, your welcome" he said sarcastically. He continued

"If you want to leave so badly, you can leave but I want you at the company 8:30 am sharp. I hate lateness and I won't tolerate it from anyone" he told me coldly.

"Bu-"

"8:30 sharp" he walked to the door and opened it

"You can leave now miss Emily" he said with a bitter smile. I left. God, he can be so annoying. I just recovered from passing out and now he's telling me to be at the company at the main time. I looked at my watch and saw it was 7:45 am. I was at the rich side in New York and I still didn't know my way round. I hailed a taxi and told him the only address I knew which was my home address. Fortunately, he reached there 10 minutes later. Looked like his apartment wasn't that far from mine. I went up an-

"Mia!!!" Beth screamed as she ran and hugged me. Her eyes brimmed with tears and then I knew she had been crying.

"I have been wooking for you. Michelle cawd and said she wanted to talk to you but I couldn't find you so she came over. I was wowid" oh my God, I left her alone at home.

"I am so sorry Beth. Am so sorry. I went out for a run and then got lost on my way back" I lied. Couldn't tell her what happened. She didn't know him.

"pls don't ever diwappear again" she said.
