The fake wedding

under our noses

Charlottes p.o.v

I heard a crash and exited Joshuas bathroom to see him being lifted by rafes men, "I was expecting you 20 minutes ago." I said walking up to rafe, "Sorry traffics a bitch right now," I smiled feeling his hands wrap my waist and he leaned down to kiss me, I wrapped my arms around his neck deepening the kiss.

"How was lunch?" "You heard everything what do you mean?" I laughed out, I was wired the whole time and rafe was listening from the house. So everything I said was from us having a meeting on what I needed to say to sell Joshua.

Right now he believes that I don't want to be in this marriage and I just wish I still had him, crazy how gullible men are. "I'm glad I came when I did I think he was getting ready for you." He smirked gesturing to the bed I turned and saw a condom on the bed. "Someone thinks he's funny."

"Rafe lets go." Pope said walking in, "I'll meet you at the house?" He kissed me one last time and he left I went into my car and grabbed pain pills. My ribs have been in pain lately and I didn't want to tell rafe to worry him.

I'm fine just a little pain here and there, I drove to the house and I got there before them. I went into the nursery seeing JJ talk to the kids. Then Jacob started crying, "Awe Common dude I just changed you." I laughed and he turned seeing me, I looked down at jacob and he stopped crying seeing me.

"That's kinda sexist." "He's a mommas boy." I said picking him up, he smiled and laughed and his hazel eyes glistened. Boy does he look like his father, he's sure going to be a heartbreaker when he grows up.

"They back yet?" JJ asked trying to wipe off the baby vomit off his shirt, I heard the sound of the back door open and footsteps and lots of talking.

"I'm guessing they are, you ok here by yourself?" He asked grabbing his coat, "Yeah they just sleep and play so I'll be fine." I hugged him and he left the room, I set Jacob down in his cot and saw olivia playing with her teething ring.

"How are you doing princess?" She giggled slapping her hands on the bed of the cot with the teething ring in hand. "Mommy's gonna do some laundry I'll be back." I left the door open and carried the baby monitor around so I could see and hear them. By the time I finished the laundry they were asleep for nap time and I was bored.

So I called rafe upstairs, I was putting clothes in the drawer when I heard him walk upstairs. "Made any progress?" I asked looking up from the drawer closing it, "Had to result to water torture." I laughed a little and moved closer to rafe letting him wrap his arms around my waist.

I softly kissed him and smiled looking into his eyes, "He was always a hard headed asshole," "We have a small problem." Pope said rushing into the room, "He started asking questions on where Charlotte is."

"What'd you tell him?" Rafe asked removing his hands and turned to face pope. "Told him she was in her room and she thinks the lunch she had with him was a dream, now he wants to see her says he'll only talk to her."

Rafe looked at me and I felt my heart race, I knew what this meant. Now I have to act like I don't know Joshua is down there being tortured. "It's showtime."

"Let me go!" I screamed two of rafes men carried me down to the basement with a black bag over my head. I couldn't see and I felt myself being sat down and tied to a chair.

They took the mask off and I blinked adjusting my vision I looked at Joshua and saw his body was drenched in water, his lip was busted and his eye was swollen. "Josh?" I gasped out I tried to move towards him but I couldn't with my arms being tied behind me.

"Hi princess." My stomach turned hearing him call me that, I was used to rafe doing that and when he does my stomach bursts into butterflies.

"What did you do to him?" I yelled at rafe and jack was wiping the blood off his knuckles both of them smiling. "You have two eyes Angel figure it out." I tried hard not to laugh when rafe was being serious, I looked away and looked back at Joshua and forced a few tears to fall.
