Dane family Book Two (Lesbian story)

Chapter 24

Alex's POV

"Why the hell did you agree to that? What did he tell you?" Summer screamed at me.

It was just me her and Silvia now. The kids were out on the park and Eleanor  went out with her dad for some things they needed to take care of.

"It is not that simple Summer. There are a lot of things that you don't know." I told her with my head between my hands. "I don't like this either but is the only option." I said trying to calm me down.

"What is that I don't know? I need you to tell me. We are married Alex I have a right to know why I am getting a divorce..." she was talking but after a while I zoned out.

The memories of what happened came back. I can't go through that and I can't let anyone of my family go through that. Not again.

I could hear Summer and Silvia yelling at me but I couldn't even understand what they were saying. All this pressure is too much.

"ENOUGH!" I said and both of them stopped immediately. "I have to do what he says..." I paused for a second. "I have already told you that I got kidnapped but I haven't told you anything else. I think it is time to find out." I told them and pointed at the couch so they can sit down. "When I started working for them, there was a woman there, with me. Her name was  Anastasia. We were getting along pretty well and we became friends quickly. One day the president visited and she was looking for one trustworthy agent. She needed to share some informations about the missiles, weapons, access codes, defense plans and stuff like that. She had to tell someone in case something happened to her. There must be one more person that knows about stuff like that and the last person that knew them died. Long story short, she chose me, which was a big honor and I couldn't decline even if I wanted to. She is the president after all. So I spent three weeks with her learning about everything she wanted me to. When I got back I noticed a change on Anastasia's behavior. She was more distant, more aggressive. When I comforted her about it, she told me to meet her in a specific place in a specific time. When I went there, a little earlier than the time she told me, I was attracted by five armed men. I was taken to a secret hide out of a group of  terrorists, they call themselves Cerberus. I was tied up there for a little more than six months. My hand tied up high from the ceiling, my feet barely touching the ground. I was asked to tell them the codes. They were organizing a terrorist attack in the capital. Millions of people would be dead. So I said nothing. I was left there for days or even weeks at a time without food or water." I paused for a second to collect myself before I continued with the next part. They had tears in their eyes.

I stood up, took my shirt off and turned around so they were facing my back. A cry was heard.

My back was, or maybe is full of scars and burns. Every inch of my back has a reminder of a bad memory.

"They did a lot of things to me. A lot of terrible things..." I stopped again.

"You don't need to tell us if you are not ready." Silvia said grabbing my hand to confront me.

"No, I have to tell you." I said looking into her eyes. "After, I don't even know how many months,  they brought Anastasia in the room with me and chained her on the wall opposite from me. She had a black eye and she looked pretty beat up. She begged me to tell them. She said she couldn't handle it anymore and I said, 'I can't risk my children's lives. I won't put my family in danger'. On that moment she smiled at me. This smile was different that the other, it was almost like evil.  She said something to another language and some guys untied her and she came closer to me. Every step she took, I felt closer and closer to the end. My end. Then she left. She came back after a long time while I was still getting the same treatment if not even worse. When she came in she had a tablet on her hand and when she showed me, I saw Lia. I found out it was a live stream. They had a scout and they were ready to shoot her." I couldn't contain my tears anymore more. "I told them everything they wanted. Thankfully before they could do something. Sargent Williams  saved me and his team killed everyone who knew the code. When I explained to him what happened he decided to cover me because he too has a daughter and understood me. If anyone finds out that I told them the codes, I will be accused for treason against the country and I will be punished with life in prison or even a death sentence. He literally has my life in his hands." I said leaning back against my seat.

"Thank you for saving her." Summer said.

"She is my daughter. I couldn't watch her die. And I knew an attack at the Capitol wouldn't effect you guys. It was the easiest choice I ever made." I told them and Summer leaned closer to kiss me.

"I don't want you to merry her." She said and Silvia nodded her head in agreement.

"I don't have a choice baby girl. I can't let my kids go through my death again. And he is going to do it. I did something wrong and now I am facing the consequences." I told her hugging both of them.

When we broke the hug the front door opened and Williams, or Nate walked in.

"I need to talk to you." He told me and I nodded my head and followed him out. "This is the contract I had with my daughters fiance. You will sing it and give it to me by the end of the week. Also I want the wedding to be fast. Before she starts to show." He said and I nodded my head. "And one last thing. Even though I don't know what she sees in you..." he said looking me up and down in disgust. "...my daughter love you. She is crazily in love with you and as her... wife, you will have to make her happy. So I don't care if you pretend for the rest of your life, you make her happy and you make her think that you love her back. That she is everything to you, because she will be. And you should get rid of the two sluts you have in there." He said pointing in my house.

"With all do respect sir, these are the mothers of my children. I would like for you to treat them better and I won't get rid of them. But I will keep my distance from them and talk to them only about the kids since I will be married to your daughter." I told him.

"Fair enough. But if you hurt my daughter or cheat on her i am going to  hurt you back." He said.

"Understood." I said and he left me there alone.

I sat there for a minute thinking about my life. Life was never on my side why would it be now? I had a terrible childhood, my wife was in a coma, I was kidnapped and tortured... Why did I thought that I could finally be happy?

Happiness is not for me. I was happy for two seconds with the loves of my life when Eleanor came and with her, everything else.

I could have it all but I won't. I never will.
