His Light

Hope

ONE MONTH LATER

Lilac's Pov

It's been a month since I've been captured by Aiden and our wedding day is tomorrow. What a joke.

All what happened in this month is that I had three suicide attempts and that Aiden found me in time. Oh and not to forget that he hurt me or raped me every single day.

I was the reason for the postponement of the wedding, but now the wedding is tommorow and I can't do anything against it. Aiden has an eye on me since those sucide attempts.

I really didn't wanted to live anymore and I had just a tiny bit of hope left.

I was sitting in the bed and reading a book; the only thing that was distracting me. The weather outside was horrible today, it was just storming and raining the whole time. Depressing me even more.

I actally never leave the room to be honest.
Sometimes Aiden forces me to go out with him or to eat downstairs with his men. The funny thing with this is that when I eat with him I don't even get to sit on my own chair. I have to sit on his fucking lap.

I hate him. I hate him so much, I can't describe it.

I also feel weaker every passing day and I am so sleepy. No motivation, nothing.

The glint of hope that is left in me still hopes for a rescue, but it's not going to happen. I tried it once and the pain I felt that day was unbearable, I passed out more than once and Aiden still didn't stop with his torture.

"Babe come one, let's take a shower before the wedding dress fitting begins" Aiden said entering the room. I wanted to refuse, but did I really wanted to risk getting hurt again.

I feel horrible.

I didn't even wanted to go out of bed. I felt empty, drained and mortified.

"A-Aiden?" I asked in a small and raspy voice. I really did not feel well.

"Yeah babe?" he answered coming closer to me.

"I d-don't feel g-good. C-can I stay in bed?" I asked holding my hands in front of my face to prevent getting hit.

"Yeah sure I will call the wedding dress fitting off" he answered in a calm voice kissing the top of my head and leaving for the bathroom.

I was shocked. Why did he react this calm? Why did he not hit me? I don't know.

Then something caught my eye. His phone.

It was just laying there on the nightstand.

I immediately stood up taking the phone, but I needed his Touch ID or his pin. "Fuck" I muttered. I had to unlock it somehow, I just had to try. I wanted to escape this shit of a place, I wanted to go back home. I even wanted to be back with Alex, the one who did not want me.

I took the phone, putting it on silent, so he won't be able to find it. Then I just got back into bed, putting the phone under the mattress. It was my last opportunity for escaping before the wedding. Soon after, I heard footsteps coming out of the bathroom.

I just pretended to be asleep.

Suddenly I felt Aiden's presence in front of me and his wet hands touching my face.

"Goodnight my love" he whispered walking to his side of the bed.

He laid down and put his arms gently around me. Something was wrong with him, he acted so weird.

I just waited for him to fall asleep and when I heard that his breathing became even, I wiggled myself out from under his arms and placed a pillow in between them. I took the phone from under the mattress and tried to take Aidens thump to unlock it with its Touch ID.
