Forever Mine

Chapter 36

I looked at the clock in the kitchen. It was 12:30. Liam was still sleeping? He never sleeps this late. I walked up the stairs and tip toed into the bedroom. His hair was a ruffled mess. The covers were thrown off so his back was peeking out. His mouth was open and his head was lying on the pillow. He looked kind of cute.

My head felt so clouded today. I couldn't stop thinking about the dream I had. I couldn't help but miss the old times. I mean I wish I was never kidnapped this was the worst possible thing that could have ever happened to me. But it did happen so I am left to face the facts. But I miss the times Liam I and I had before. When we weren't stuck on an island. When we were in that big beautiful house. Where I actually had a chance of escaping. I wish he never slipped into my life again. How did he find me in the first place? How was he able to escape? I just don't understand. Things would never be the same once I got off this island. I would be raising two children with the fear that one of them or both could turn out just like Liam was just too much.

Liam began to stir. I completely forgot I had been standing there. I quickly walked away and downstairs. I didn't want him to think I was beginning to fall for him in anyway.

Liam's pov:

I opened my eyes and looked around. Avery wasn't next to me. I guess she had already gotten up. I grabbed my phone and looked at the time. 12:45??! How did I sleep for that long? I got out of bed and quickly got ready excited to see Avery. Something felt different today. I don't know what it was but I just felt hopeful things would change for the better.

I quickly ran down the stairs. Avery was sitting on the couch watching tv.

"Hello there beautiful." I give her a big kiss and a smile.

She returns a small smile. She was wearing one of my t-shirts and sweatpants. I could just kiss here until the end of time.

"Morning." She mumbles.

I could already tell something was up with her. God I wasn't in the mood to do this today. I thought things would be different. Maybe they will be. They still can be.

"What's wrong my love?" I look at her concerned.
"What's going to happen when I am free Liam? When you're in jail?"

I clench my fists and grit my teeth. I try not to show my anger.

"That's never going to happen my love. You know that. You're safe here with me they will never find you. They will never find us." I reassure her.

She rolls her eyes. I let out a sigh.

"Well what's going to happen IF they do find us? They are going to put you in jail forever. You're not going to get out this time. Never again. You'll be locked away forever." She spits.

"Well lucky for us. That WON'T happen." I grin.

"IF it did, I would find a way to get out. You are my wife. Wren and Liliah are my children. I won't go anywhere without you all. I'll die trying. I'll kill anyone in my path that tries to separate us."

"They're going to find you Liam. They are going to lock you away. I'll get on with my life. Without you. I'll raise my children with Chase and my family"

Hearing Chase's name was just enough to set me over the edge.

"CHASE WILL NOT RAISE MY KIDS! HE WILL NEVER STEP FOOT NEAR THEM! He can't have you anymore Avery! You're mine! My kids! Not his do you hear me!" I roar at her.

I grab her chin forcing her to gaze into my eyes. She looks right back at me with no fear.

"I'll get out of here Liam don't you worry. I'll never be seeing you again." She snarls.

I assumed she would cower back but this time she didn't. She continued to fight back. I was loosing my patience.

"Oh trust me. You'll never been getting out of here. Even if you did, I got you back once and I'll do it again. I'll do it a thousand fucking times if I ever to. I will die with you by my side. You're so lucky I found you when I did Avery things could've been so much worse for us."

"What the fuck is that supposed to mean?" She spits.

I slap her thigh lightly.

"Don't talk like that." I warn.
She rolls her eyes.

"What if you were married to Chase when I found you? What if you were pregnant? Or even had a child of his? It could've caused us so much unnecessary trouble dear." I stroke her cheek.

She slaps my hand away, so I grab on tightly to her hand.

"What if I was pregnant Liam or what if I already did have a child with Chase? Would you have taken me? Would you have hurt my child like that?! You're hurting everyone I love by taking me! I'm supposed to be out living my life and I'm stuck here!" She snaps.

"Now they can experience the pain I've had to deal with living without you. And you weren't pregnant and you didn't have a child so it didn't matter."

"I hate you so much Liam. My kids will never grow up knowing you. I'll never let them find out about you. You're a sick fucking bastard." She snaps.

"Get upstairs before I do something I regret." I stand up with my fists clenched.

"No. If you ever fucking expect this to work you can't just order me around. You can't just send me to my fucking room when you get mad!" She yells.

"GET THE FUCK UPSTAIRS!" I yell louder this time.

She still doesn't budge. My effects were wearing off on her. She wasn't afraid. I felt the anger pulsating through my fists.

"Avery. Go. Now. I'm serious."

"No." She crosses her arms.

I raise my hand about to hit her, all the anger taking over in my body.

"So you're a wife beater now too? Great fucking influence you are." She snaps.

I put my hand down and slam my fist into the wall instead. It startled her. I watch her shake and back away from me. Too angry to be around her anymore I go to the front door and unlock it. I slam it shut behind me. I storm over to Ryan's. I need a drink and to talk. Something was different but it was definitely not a change for the better. Things were only getting worse. She still was trying to escape. No matter how hard I tried she refused to love me. Wren and Liliah were coming soon... I needed her to fall in love with me. We needed to be a real family. We just had to.
