Captivated Desires

16

Reign watched me as I laid back down on the bed, his heart aching with sadness seeing the pain and stress I was feeling. He spoke after a moment of silence, his tone soft and gentle. "Darling, please talk to me. I know you're stressed and upset right now but talk to me. I'm here for you." he mumbled, his eyes fixed on me, hoping I would open up to him.

"I'm sorry okay,".

Reign looked at me with a hint of relief that I acknowledged that I hadn't told him about this for so long. He moved closer to me on the bed, wanting to comfort me in any way he could. "I understand, I am also sorry. I'm sorry that you didn't feel like you could trust me with this before now. But please, just talk to me. Tell me how you're feeling, and how you've been feeling for all this time," he mumbled, his tone soft and pleading.

"I do trust you, stop bringing up trust," I started to get irritated.

He spoke quickly in an attempt to calm me down. "Alright, alright, I'm sorry. I won't bring up trust anymore, I understand it's upsetting you to talk about it. I just want to understand why you didn't tell me about this before now." he mumbled, his tone softened to a gentle tone again.

I stood up and I was getting stressed "I did trust you with my life but Bipolar can't be fixed, I take meds and that is it,".

Reign stood up as well, seeing the stress and frustration I was clearly expressing. He spoke gently in a soft tone of voice. "Darling, I know it can't be fixed, and that you take meds. I'm not saying I wanted to fix anything, I just want to understand. Why didn't you feel like you could come to me about this?" he mumbled the sadness and hurt still present in his tone.

"Can you stop about why didn't you tell me sooner, you didn't tell me about your mafia life until we were married,".

Reign looked at me seriously as I brought up the fact that he didn't tell me about his involvement in the mafia until after the two of us were married. He spoke with a hint of defensiveness in his tone to my statement. "That's different though, you know that," he mumbled, his eyes fixed on me.

"It's not different it is the same thing, you kept a secret from me,".

Reign looked at me with a mixture of irritation and defensiveness in his eyes. "It is different, and you know it. I didn't tell you about my involvement in the mafia because I wanted to keep you safe, you didn't care about keeping me safe since you didn't trust me enough to tell me about your bipolar," he mumbled, his tone still defensive, but the words sounded slightly harsh in his irritation.

"Wow okay, I know my place in this little marriage,".

Reign looked at me with a mixture of annoyance and surprise as I said that, his expression showing that my words had hurt him. "What is that supposed to mean?" he mumbled his tone a mix of annoyance and hurt as he looked at me.

"That I didn't care, you just said it,".

Reign shook his head in slight irritation and disbelief, his eyes still fixed on me. "Yeah, I did say that, because you don't if you didn't trust me enough to tell me about your bipolar. You didn't care if I knew or not," he mumbled bluntly and firmly.

"You know what?"

Reign looked at me with a mixture of annoyance, irritation, and confusion. "What?" he mumbled, his tone still firm and slightly harsh from his annoyance and irritation.

I took my ring off "Screw you," I threw the ring at him and grabbed my car keys and left before he could grab me.

Reign stood there, stunned for a moment as I threw my wedding ring at him, grabbed my car keys and left. He was too shocked by what had just happened to try and grab me at that moment, and by the time he realized I had left the house and gotten in my car, I was already gone. He stood there in the middle of the bedroom in shock, still processing what had just happened.

After a moment of standing there in shock, Reign snapped out of it in the realization that I was gone and had left. "Damn it," he mumbled under his breath as he looked down at the wedding ring I had just thrown at him and was now laying on the ground.

As I was at the gas station, filling up my car and trying to control my messy and overwhelming emotions, I suddenly felt a hard and cold metal press against my head. It took a moment to register what that feeling was, and when I realized it was a gun pressed to the back of my head, my heart instantly felt like it stopped in my chest for a moment.

A wave of panic and fear coursed through me as I stood there in shock, the gun still pressed against the back of my head. The realization of what was happening and who the person holding the gun to my head was slowly sunk in. I was caught in a dangerous and terrifying situation, and all I could do was stand there frozen in fear, unsure of what to do or how to get out of this alive.

The moment I pressed the button on my necklace to signal that I was in danger, the small tracker hidden in it sent a loud and clear signal to Reign who picked it up immediately, alerting him that I was in trouble. He quickly checked the location and saw that I was at the gas station nearby.

He felt an immediate surge of adrenaline and fear for my safety. He knew that this signal meant I was in danger, and he had to act fast to get to me. He quickly jumped into a car and headed toward the gas station, the location where the signal from my necklace was coming from.
