The CEO's Return (Tracy and Alex) novel Chapter 44

Tracy

I woke up with my body aching, my throat was burning too, it took a minute or two before my eyes adjusted to the room I was in.

Everywhere looked so blue that I couldn't see where I was, I was confused for a while, everything in my memory was foggy, but then I was able to remember what happened.

I should have listened to Alex, I should have listened, what am I supposed to be doing in a room so blue I could barely see anything?, I felt uncomfortable because I was tied sitting in a chair.

I prayed for a while then I started worrying again, what of my kids?, Have they eaten?, What would my parents think when they realize I'm gone? What would Sam do to me? Would Alex realize Sam did something to me?, Or would he think I'm still on my way home because I called him earlier?, What time is it? Since when did I pass out?. Those questions keep running on my mind until I heard footsteps, I stopped thinking and listened, I heard the door open and someone came inside the room.

The person switched on the light and I saw who it was, it was Sam, our eyes met and I glared at him.

"Come on now darling, don't look at me like that, I am doing this for our good."

He said coming close

"Don't come close to me you jerk! I hate you!"

"It's okay to hate me for now, very soon you'll know I'm the right person for you, you will divorce Alex whether you like it or not, we travel to Spain, get married there and we live happily ever after."

"You are a psycho!, Let me go, you idiot."

"Look at you darling, I should have put a tape on your pretty mouth, or tied it with something, you are sounding too loud to be the pretty girl I knew in school, but then don't worry, I'll pardon you, let's just say you are shocked, for now."

"Let me go!"

"No darling we are still at the beginning of the plan, if only you can just relax, let me tell and show you how much I love you, look around baby." He said and I did, I was probably busy yelling at him that I didn't notice the things in the room when he switched on the light.

The room is a shrine of me, a pretty big shrine, my pictures were everywhere in the room, the bedspread had my face on it, framed pictures of me on the wall, on a big bulletin board were different pictures of me, even from when I was in high school.

"Come have a closer look." He said pulling the chair I was tied to closer to the bulletin board, my mouth dropped open when I saw the pictures there, pictures from when I first got the cafe job, pictures from my first date with Alex, pictures of my bad hair day, pictures of me serving the customer coffee, a picture of my first kiss with Alex in a park, there was even the of me six months pregnant and trying to buy groceries in Florida, I was so shocked my mouth dropped open.

"I thought you went to business school."

"Of course, but I had to check and keep up with the love of my life."
