Latoya POV

I hardly gotten a good sleep last night because my mind was full of thinking and my wrist hurts alot. I felt something strange as I open my eyes. I found myself wrapped up in Carlos arms.

When did he get here? I gentle pulled away from his hold and went to the bathroom. After using the bathroom I changed in a sports bra and tights with my running shoes on and jog through the door for a early morning run.

I jogged as far as the woods just to keep my mind clear. I felt my legs getting tired and I'm running out of breath so I stop and rest on a log near the woods. I started feeling tears running from my eyes as I thought of Carlos and his abused back then.

Wondering if he's going to get back there. He said he has changed and he wouldn't laid back a hand on me but last night was a start. I just can't see him as the monster everyone saw him as because I love him so much and I want Cassie to be with her mom and dad.

I wiped my tears and ran back home. As soon as I open the door and head to the kitchen I saw Carlos along with Josh sitting around the table and I froze.

Carlos dark eyes piercing through me with anger while Josh didn't look up on me. Memory of last night with Josh flashed through my mind and I feel tense under Carlos stared.

"Where are you coming from so early and dress like that?" He said trying to controlled his anger which I saw boiling through his eyes.

"I went for a run by the woods just to take some fresh air, I didn't want to wake you that why I didn't tell you" I said calmly

"Josh you mind giving me a minute with my wife" he said calmly turning his gazed to Josh then back at me.

"Sure" he said getting up with his face showing an expression of anger.

He glared at me before walking out and my heart started to pump harder thinking of what Carlos might do to me. I tried to keep calm and looked for away to ran if he attack me.

"So you're disobeying me now Latoya?" He said sipping his coffee.

"I told you not to  wear those kind of clothing right and here you are with you belly showing over the place, didn't last night teach you something?" He said walking towards me.

"Carlos please don't hurt me I'm sorry OK?  I didn't know it would bother you because I wasn't among anyone and its more comfortable to run in" I said trembling and backing away from him.

"I'm warning you for the last time. I don't want no other man looking on you in anyway dressing so sexy and flirting with you. Understood?" He said with his eyes darken.

"Ye--yes i-i'm sorry" I babbled.

I then ran up the stairs and  laid in the bed while the tears racing down my face. I buried my head in the pillow soaking it with tears. I heard a text message on my phone and I checked it to see if it was Jade or Tay to cheer me up but Josh name that showed up on the screen and I quickly open it.

Josh: Did he hurt you again? Latoya you can't let him keep hurting you and you keeping quiet over it. I'm here to help you.

A single tear fell from my eyes realizing how he cares about me this much and he only know me for a week. I wish Carlos would pushed the effort to make sure I'm OK like Josh does. I quickly deleted the message when I heard the door pushed open and Carlos appeared in. 

"Babes I'm sorry for the way I treated you last night and the way I talked to you" he said laying beside me and wrapping his arms around my waist.
