Titus's pov°
I watched as Zelina slept she looked stunning, I looked back at Roman he was so perfect his hair in a quiff like mine and he has my gold eyes, they where both perfect I'm happy I found them but Zelina while receive a punishment once we get to the Castle.
'Cut off all the ties of Zelinas life in New York.' I said to one of my warriors threw the mind link.
'Yes my King.' I heard a reply.
I'll never let Zelina out of my sight she's mine and know I got her again I don't plan on her leaving again especially with our child. I just wish I was there but Zelina took that away from me, I like the name I just need to get someone to add my last name to his name but I'll have someone fix that but I'll need to spend time with the both of them.
Next morning
Zelinas pov°
I slowly opened my eyes sitting up slightly, I looked over to see Titus so it wasn't a nightmare. I looked back at Roman to see him awake and Titus trying to start a conversation but he's just ignored him, he's such a mommy's boy.
"Morning Roman." I said looking back at him, the reason I'm not fighting back or trying to escape is because I need to keep calm so Roman won't be frightened.
"Morning mommy." He said instantly lighting up like a Christmas tree, I heard a sigh from Titus but just ignored him.
"How was your sleep, honey bun?" I asked starting a conversation.
"Was good I guess." He said which made me sad I know he's upset about this situation.
"Can we stop?" I asked sitting back forward looking at Titus.
"Yea right know." He said rubbing my thigh and pulling into a rest stop.
"You stay with me at all times." He said in a threatening tone I just nodded and got out.
I opened Roman's door and he unbuckled his seatbelt, Titus popped the trunk I looked through some of the bags, I grabbed a clean pair of grey boyshorts and matching bra, then I grabbed one of my black joggers sweats and a grey v-neck, black ankle socks and my black Nike running shoes. For Roman I grabbed a clean pair of red plaid boxers, black basketball shorts, and a plain black shirt sleeved t-shirt and his red Nike shoes.
"Let's go." Titus said grabbing some of his own clothes and closed the trunk.
I grabbed Roman's hand with my one free hand and walked into the rest area I walked into the girls but Titus right behind me not caring it's a girls room me and Roman went into the larger stall we both changed, I threw my hair up in a bun.
"Where going to go eat." Titus said and grabbed my waist and to the car and soon enough we arrived at this diner I could already tell this is going to be a long drive.
Back in L.A. 10:26 p.m.
Zelinas pov°
We have finally arrived in L.A it's been so long since I've left everything just seems so dull and creepy almost. Roman is sleeping I grabbed him making sure he doesn't wake up while Titus's warriors carried our things inside I followed Titus towards his room he opened a guest bedroom I lightly laid Roman down tucking him under the covers once I retracted my hands from him Titus roughly grabbed my arm dragging me into the other room, his room and slammed me into the wall him pressed against him.
"You fucking left me for 4 almost 5 fucking years, and with our fucking child I've missed his first everythings." He yelled in my face making me flinch everytime he had cursed.
"Know that I got you I don't on ever letting you go." He said kissing my neck making me scoot away from him.
I'm so sad and upset that I had let my son, my baby, my everything I had let him down but I am also getting mad because he shouldn't talk to me like that it's so disrespectful.
"No he's my son mine not yours I don't want him to be raised like this, we where so happy in New York but you have to ruin it like you do with everything in my life, only you have to have control over everything in my life." I yelled some how breaking out of his tight hold on me, but I have this adrenaline in me but know that I see his face my sudden outburst seems like the worst mistake of my life.
His shoulders where heaving up and down out of anger, all of a sudden the back of his hand came in contact with my cheek and I fell to the floor. I already know what's going to happen this definitely isn't going to be the first time, he only beats me where there not visible to the public or where they can be hidden but he would slap me once or twice in the face.
45 minutes later
I'm so sore right know I'm laying on the bedroom floor in pain and Titus is in bed peacefully sleeping like nothing, he's the same person 4 years ago I really thought that I could be happy but once I finally find my happiness he's always there to ruin it, my concern are know Roman I will not allow him to live like this, I refuse to let my son become just like Titus he is my son not his.
I can feel some of my wounds starting to heal but I will remember this, I'm going to be sore that's fore sure. I slowly stood keeping my groans of pain quiet, I slowly opened the door and quietly walked into Roman's plain room, I don't know if I'll ever be able to escape again.
There where boxes piled in the corner I limped to them quietly opening one of them it was pictures from the apartment by the time I had looked through everything I was silently crying, I don't know what to do I feel so weak I don't know if I can protect my son, he trusts me with his life but I'm scared.
"Mommy why are you crying?" Roman asked from his bed snapping me out of my thoughts.
"I'm not baby sorry for waking you." I said getting up sitting on the bed and Roman came and sat on my lap.
"Mom it's going to be ok I love you." He said using his small hands to whip my tears away.
"I love you to baby, go back to bed." I said tucking him under the covers and closing the door quietly.
I walked back into Titus's room I'm lucky that he has not woken up that would of been another beating, after the beatings he gives me I have to clean up quietly and get back into bed like nothing happened just like always, I can still remember my first beating just like it was yesterday.
Flashback
I was 14 just in 8th grade since last year Titus has just became possessive over me, we where at the park and it was over the most dumb reason he wanted to kiss me and I had dodged him last minute, I had explained that I wasn't ready for a relationship, he had taken me into the woods beating me senseless since then I had rarely defied him, but nobody is perfect and I had slipped up a couple of times that had earned me some beatings.
End flashback
I cleaned myself up and and got into bed staying as far away from Titus as possible.
