THANE'S POV
I didn't expect Bella to slap Mahira that way. Before I could even break Mahira's fall, someone beat me to it. There was my sister with a strange man. Ooh, I recognize him,he is Adamsen Lorenzo Mendez the business tycoon. But what would Adamsen be looking for here that too with my wife. I completely forgot that Mahi had fainted and let curiosity got the best of me
" Leave my wife."
Adamsen," Why? Now u know that she's your wife, like seriously Thane. Have you heard the saying, another man's garbage is another man's treasure. How can you cheat on your wife right in front of her?"
Thane," How does it concern you? She's my wife not yours. Unless you think you have the right to my wife after fucking her."
Adamsen chuckles," Really Thane. You think so low of your wife. You don't even trust her. It's a pity she's in love with someone like you."
Thane," are you jealous. Don't be, she's my...."
Elena intervened and she was worried about Mahira.
" Stop it both of you! Fairy is not well and all you can do is fight. Adamsen sir please carry fairy to your car. Brother you are coming with us follow Adamsen's car. You have a lot of questions to answer!"
With that Elena walked in front and Adamsen followed carrying Mahira bridal style. I was so jealous. I , the original husband had to follow empty handed while some stranger carried my wife as if they were lover's. And my sister,whom I thought was dead is actually alive. How? Ariana told me that Elena was dead.
End of Thane's POV
When they got to the hospital, the doctor examined Mahira for nearly eight hours. The more time he took the greater the suspense. Since they came to the hospital no one said a word to each other. Elena kept looking at Thane with disappointment.
After eight hours, the doctor came out hanging his head.
Adamsen," doctor is she fine. What happened to her?"
Doctor,"Are you her husband?"
Thane stepped forward," No. Im her husband."
Adamsen," doctor please just tell me is she going to be fine. Is her condition serious."
Doctor," She shows signs of physical abuse, emotional abuse and the reason why she fainted is because of starvation. She hasn't eaten in two days. Even the food she was given was .... well not enough. Her immune system is very weak. She needs proper care and attention. Her mental health is deteriorating. This involves police so... the police will be arriving in ten minutes. Until then no one is allowed to see her for fear of her being threatened to keep quiet."
The doctor left and Adamsen finally broke their silence.
" Thane, what did you do to her? You claim she's your wife but you are harrasing her. Aren't you ashamed of yourself. How could you do that to such a lovely woman?"
Thane," didn't I tell you to mind your business. She is my....."
Elena,"Wife?... Is that what you call her, your wife. Brother...."
Elena closed her eyes to calm herself down.
" It's fine, it's okay. I just want to talk to Mahi fairy. "
Elena walked away. The police came in after 10 minutes and interrogated Mahira. Mahira just asked them to come back later because she was not in the condition to answer their questions. After they left, she sat on the hospital bed lost in her thought. Adamsen suddenly came in.
Mahira," you?"
Adamsen," your Elena is safe now. She's here in the hospital. "
Mahira's eye's grew wide with surprise.
" How did you manage to get her? She's safe right? Why is she in the hospital?"
Adamsen," calm down hottie, Elena is alright unless she's broken down inside. I came here to discuss our deal. I managed to bring Elena,now should I find your son's. Be quick, I sneaked in here so..."
Mahira," okay please find my son's."
Adamsen," I think I should name my price first because you might not agree."
Mahira," name your price. Im willing to do anything for my children."
Adamsen," You will stay with me and warm my bed."
Mahira looked at him with questioning eye's.
" What the fuck? You want me to be your woman in bed. What kind of condition is that ?"
Adamsen," You have twenty four hours to decide,or you can find your children yourself which will take you year's ."
After saying that Adamsen left. Mahira started crying with the condition she was given. Elena came in and hugged Mahira with a smile on her face.
Elena," Fairy..."
She started sobbing in her embrace. Mahira kept kissing Elena all over.
Mahira," My baby,look at what they did to you. I thought I had lost you my baby. Im sorry I didn't find you earlier. My love."
ELENA'S POV
Finally, I was back home , reunited with Fairy. Fairy kissed me countless times and her face was already soaked with tear's. When I was in that awful place I had lost hope that I would be found. It was a horrible place. Ariana illegally got me into the country and forced me to work with those awful men. I was a waitress in the bar and they treated me like a slut.
Mahira," My baby. Im sorry I couldn't find you earlier."
Fairy removed the scarf that was covering my neck and checked my body all over. Although I tried to hide those scar's, Fairy saw them.
" What did they do to you? Who did this to you?"
Fairy cried even more as she inspected my wound's.
Elena," nothing. It's not a big deal."
Mahira," My baby please don't hide anything from me. Please tell me love. Please."
I decided to tell her everything.
" Fairy, well in that bar they harrased me. They lashed me whenever I tried to escape. This one regular customer, well he is 25 years old,he forced himself on me. Every night he raped me continuously claimed...he claimed that he....loved me."
I started sobbing. I had been holding this in my heart for so long. I had no one to talk to. Mahira hugged me and rubbed my back. I cried until I lost strength. Keeping this in my heart for eleven months was torture. When I turned 17 that man claimed me as his own. He ruined my innocence. He took my virginity without my consent. I wished and prayed that Mahira would come and save me but he got what he wanted. It hurt so bad and finally I am home. I fainted suddenly.
End of Elena's POV
" Elena, Elena... Elena darling wake up. Doctor! Doctor!"
Mahira called the doctor's and asked them to admit her.
