Forbidden Desire: The Church Girl

Chapter 46- Pain

Merciless POV

5:45 P.M/ Home

I kept pacing back and forth in my blue and white tuxedo as I tried to call Veronica's phone and it kept going straight to voicemail.

Vrrt.. Vrrt... Vrrt..

'You have reached the voicemail of..'

"ARGH!" I raged in anger as I threw my phone at the wall and picked up the bottle of Bacardi 151 that I was drinking earlier, before gulping it down.

Vrrt Vrrt Vrrt

My other phone vibrated loudly on the glass table in the living room and I looked at the caller's ID before quickly picking it up.

"Seems like our little deal is dead, like your wife and daughter will be-"

"She will be there fucking soon, okay!" My words came out a bit slurredly as I spoke.

"There ain't no more time left Merciless! Where is the fucking bride?!"

"I TOLD YOU GODDAMIT!" I raised my voice angrily as I paced back and forth.

"You have fifteen fucking minutes to get your daughter here or else.. you're burying both your wife and daughter."

Beep

"ARGH! FUCK!"

Vrrt Vrrt Vrrt..

My phone started ringing in my hand immediately after that bastard, Claud hang up. I tapped the answer icon and placed the phone to my ear.

"Don't let my father get to you. I sent someone to pick her up. They will be there in about fifteen minutes. I will wait fifteen more years for your daughter as long as she will be mine."

Beep

I immediately felt sick to my stomach as I rested my elbow on the back of the sofa before I started to vomit my guts out.

I heard the door knob turned and quickly glanced towards the door while I reached my hand on my waist where my long cleaver knife was.

"What's going on?" Veronica scrunched up her face as she walked in on me hovered over, after letting out all of the substances out of my body I think.

"Nothing. I kept calling you and you weren't answering." I breathe out as I used the back of my hand to wipe my mouth.

"Well.. I'm here now- thank god-"

I heard Veronica's voice cracked and I immediately glanced up at her and her eyes were red and puffy.

My princess was crying.

"Princess- Are you o-"

"IT'S ALL YOUR FAULT! I was happy with Alex but father, you ruined that! YOU RUINED MY LIFE NOW THAT SHE WANTS NOTHING TO DO WITH ME! Congrats! I hope you are happy now. I hate you."

"Veronica?" I called after her as she flounced upstairs.

'I hate you.'

Those words felt like many daggers to my heart.

"I- I- I'm so sorry I didn't bring her back in ti-"

"No need for that anymore. Help her get ready. Ryan will be here to pick you two up in fifteen minutes." I said and she quickly nodded before making her way towards the staircase.

I made my own daughter hate me. What kind of a father am I?

20 minutes later

I heard footsteps coming down the staircase as I sat down on the sofa and I took one glance before I quickly double glanced again and I stood up immediately.
