Moving from one abusive household to another, Skye is sold to a billionaire, Blaze, who carries the abuse forward, until...
Put in an insecure girl, a hot, sweet brother-in-law and a jaw-dropping, possessive husband.
Falling for someone who is hell...
My vision finally cleared I don't know when. I found myself in a different room that looked nothing like my previous one. I didn't even have a ton of needles sticking out of my arms. Blaze was still seated next to me but this time he was awake. He looked at me and I swear that I saw a layer of moisture in his eyes. he helped me sit up and then hugged me tight causing me to wince. He quickly pulled back and apologized. He called for the doctor and stepped out of the room.
He came back in once the doctor left and informed me that we could leave tomorrow and the bill has been settled. He looked like he wanted to ask me something but refrained. He cleared his throat before bringing me some soup. I reached out for it but he pulled back, I gave him a frown and a questioning look "oh no you don't," he said before putting the spoon to his mouth and blowing on the hot soup. He then placed it next to my mouth to feed me. I opened my mouth and he smile a wide genuine smile. It was the most gorgeous smile I had ever seen. It made me smile back. "You should smile more," I told him "Oh really? why? does it help you fall for me?" I blushed furiously before lowering my gaze, giving him his answer.
He again laughed a genuine laugh, which again was the definition of perfection, and continued feeding me. And ngl I really liked it. It made me feel fuzzy. After I was done eating, I made space on the hospital bed for Blaze. He looked at me cautiously and then gently placed himself on the side of my bed. He looked scared to come to close to me. I pushed myself closer, resting my head on his chest and he wrapped his arm around me. He shifted to get more comfortable and rested his head on mine.

"Why'd you do it?" he asked after a few moments of silence. I hesitated before shaking my head "I've been waiting for it to finally end" "why would you want to destroy something beautiful?" he asked me "Beautiful? What about my life is beautiful?" "You are. Your care for people who mistreat you is. Your loyalty is." He said, giving a forehead kiss. I blushed under his gaze.
"I don't belong here. I cannot be with someone who takes pleasure in inflicting pain on me, someone who can't love me." I said. He looked as though he was going to cry, but held back. "Those scars?" He said. I hesitated and shook my head. I don't trust him enough to open up to him. "Tell me right fucking now Skye or I'll have to use ways I don't want to to get the information out." I shivered and got out of his hold, getting scared. A streak of hurt passed through his eyes when I did so, but he masked it up quickly. "I'm sorry I'm so sorry" He almost sobbed "You don't have to tell me". And that's when I blurted everything out. I told him everything, every single detail. He listened to me carefully and kept reassuring me by either rubbing the back of my palm, pulling me closer to him, running his hand through my hair.
He hugged me tight with his arms wrapped around me, his head in my neck and profusely apologized for everything he had ever done to me. "I'm so sorry, I'm so sorry angel. I swear to you that no harm will come to you ever again, for as long as I live. I know you must hate me, and I'll do anything to make up for it. I'm so sorry angel" He muttered and I felt something wet on my shoulder.
I fell asleep in his arms that night, and there was no place I'd rather be.
If you gave me a chance I would take it It's a shot in the dark but I'll make it Know with all of your heart, you can't shame me When I am with you, there's no place I rather be N-n-n-no, no, no, no place N-n-n-no, no, no, no place N-n-n-no, no, no, no place
My conscious sang for me.
......
I've been home for 3 days now and Blaze hasn't left my side along with (much to his dismay) Carter. Blaze's attitude has changed a lot and it was kinda weird. Carter was the same old, loving Carter, who I wouldn't change for the world. They both stayed by my side throughout, feeding me and keeping me company. Blaze had taken a couple of days off of work and I was starting to get bugged with the constant care and attention. It made me feel like a baby who can't take care of myself.
After crazy convincing from my side, Blaze agreed to go to work but only once I assure him that I would text him every hour. He also sent Cater back to his parents. Carter and I still had our moments though, and we went out together a lot.
It's been around four hours since he left now, and I've kept up with my side of the deal, I texted him every hour letting him know that I was fine. I heard the doorbell ring in the distance, and the door opening and closing in a fraction of a second. One of the maids came up to me and handed me an envelope. I have her a quizzical look but she just shrugged and walked away. I opened the envelope, it contained a couple of pictures. I can't say that I was shocked when I saw those pictures, cause well, Blaze did hook up with multiple girls even after we got hitched. But what hurt me the most was that these pictures were from today, not only was Blaze wearing what he was this morning but there was a calendar in the back that stated today's date.
In the pictures, Blaze was standing with a blonde, tall girl whose hands were all over him, his shirt buttons were undone and his hair was a mess. There was another picture of the pair kissing. As I said, it didn't surprise me, but it hurt that he would hook up with someone as soon as he left my side. I also can't deny the fact that I had developed feelings for that man. Although, after seeing these pictures, I was assured that I had to do what I had to do.
Blaze came home that night, looking normal. He saw me on the kitchen counter and wrapped his arms around me. I gave him an awkward pat on the back and he let me go but not before giving me a kiss.
"You missed a text," He said. I nodded cause I didn't know what to say. "Are you alright?"
It's now or never Skye, come on, you can say it
"I want a divorce." Blaze did a double-take before replying "wait what? no Skye no, is this about before? I promise you I'll change, please don't do this, I'll do anything" He begged. I stuck to my decision and shook my head. I tossed the envelope towards him, and repeated to myself "I want a divorce Blaze." I clenched my jaw. I looked at myself and then back at the cover before opening it. He looked at the images with wide eyes. "No, No Skye, let me explain myself please, you don't need to do this, Skye please just let me exp-" I cut him off "You don't owe me anything Blaze, please, just set me free. That's all I ask." He shook his head with tears in his eyes "Baby please, don't do this" "I'm sorry Blaze, but I have to. For myself. I know you won't agree with me, so I won't push this right now, but I will ask my lawyer to send you the divorce paper. I'm sorry" I gave him a kiss before leaving.

I feel bad for the both of them but eh there's a ton of drama in the next chapter that goes down <3
