A Toxic Relationship

Chapter 12

I sat in the kitchen pretending like I didn't just spy on my fiancé and my son bonding for the first time. Dominik walked in giving me a small smile then turning away to pour himself a glass of whiskey. I returned the smile back then focused on reading my book again. He turned around and broke the silence, "Hey." He whispered bringing the cup to his lips.
I looked at his piercing blue eyes that I loved so much, they were beautiful but unfaithful and deceiving. 

"Hey." I whispered back, uncomfortable, that's what I feel when I'm with him. I so desperately wanted to believe that this was only a faze and things will get better, that things will turn out in the end with time. Time only made it worse because he never changed, it made my heart fall into pieces all over again. Dominik walked around behind me and wrapped his arms around my neck.

"What are you reading?" He asked, looking at the book like he's actually interested in what I'm reading, he never cares. 

"It's about a princess who falls in love with her bodyguard, but they are forbidden to be together-" I cut myself off because I just know he doesn't care "Never mind I know this stuff bothers you if I speak about it." I was still mad at him for cheating. I'm not going to be sweet to him. I'm not going to be that cruel either for being a good father to our child. I love him, but I'm not stupid. He didn't even bother to acknowledge that last part and changed the subject.  

"What do you say we go on a romantic dinner. I'll schedule a nanny for our son," he whispered, he began kissing my neck gently, "So you and I will have some alone time." He said, finishing his sentence, I laughed under my breath and felt anger boiling through my veins. 

"Are you serious?" I asked turning my head to look at his confused face. 

"Of course I am," He said, "Why wouldn't I, love?" He asked, his question made me want to rip my hair out. I pulled myself out of his arms and walked across the room.

"You think I would ever go to dinner with you after what you pulled?" I asked, he lifted an eyebrow and acted like he didn't know what I was talking about. 

"What are you talking about?" He stepped closer making me step back.

"I know you cheated, cut the act." He froze and for a moment I saw that hint of insanity in the back of those blue eyes, it sent chills down my spine. 

"Baby I don't know what you're saying, did you sleep well?" 

"Don't act innocent Dominik, you're a lying bastard, I heard you telling some woman how beautiful she is the exact same way you said it to me. Every day I go to sleep I hear you saying those words to her, it's driving me mad! You told me you loved me" I felt tears running down my face faster than a waterfall. "How could you do this to me? I hate you and I never want to see your lying ass aga-" Dominik cut me off after connecting the back of his hand to my cheek. I backed away and hit the wall holding my face, he walked up to me and grabbed my wrists. 

"Shut the fuck up! You're in pain but you don't mean that baby, you love me, everything will change when we get married. I promise." He pulled my hands away from my face so he can grab it instead. "You love me." He said, squeezing my face tighter, I looked around the room and then flinched as he screamed at my face, "Say it!" I stayed silent; he went feral.
This time he slapped me so hard that I ended up on the floor, I yelped and held my stinging face, I didn't even dare to look at him, I didn't want to either. 

"You think hitting me is going to make me tell you that I love you?" I asked, he stayed silent then his hands turned into fists, making me feel uneasy. More tears ran down my face as he just stood there staring at me on the floor. He then decided to bend down to me and cup my chin, he lifted my face up forcing me to look at him. 

"Baby stop doing this to yourself." He said, tilting his head like he cared, and there he goes again blaming everything on me.

"Of course, because it's my fault that you keep laying your hands on me." I whispered, he gave me a glare and then softened his eyes again. He picked me up and took me to my bedroom and lied me down on the bed. 
"Rest my love," He said, whispering into my ear, "I'll be back later." He said, he kissed my forehead and walked out the door. I laid there trying to figure out what I was going to do, I want to grab the baby and leave but I don't know what he'll do to me if I tried.

I woke up to the phone ringing, so I picked it up, not really knowing who it was. "Hello?" I asked.
"Hello, are you Mr. Dominik Levy's fiancé?" A male voice asked.
"Yes, I am, why?" I asked back. At this point I didn't know if I was panicking or if I'm just confused.
"He was arrested." He said.
"What? Why? What happened?" I asked.
"If you could just come down to the station that would be great. We will be happy to give you more details when you get here. Thanks." He said. The police officer hung the phone up. I got up and got dressed then went into Jason's room and got him dressed as well. I buckled Jason up in the car and drove off.

I walked into the police station where I saw Dominik being held back. He was acting like a mad man trying to get away from these officers.
"What happened?" I asked, looking at Dominik with disappointment. Although I'm not surprised this is where he ended up, it was bound to happen at some point I'm just surprised that it didn't happen sooner. When Dominik saw me, he started laughing, he was drunk, of course he was fucking drunk! I had the urge to just leave him here to rot because that's what his sorry ass deserves for everything that he's done. 

"I was just walking, and they arrested me. Help me princess." He said, dropping his head to his chest. I shook my head and held Jason's to my shoulder, this place isn't for children, but I didn't have anyone to watch him. Me and my friends haven't spoken in a while, we had different opinions about Dominik, and they were right. I lost them for his idiot, so I really have no one and there was no way I was going to leave Jason with my parents. Everything was fine until a few nights ago when Bella visited for only a day, she saw the way Dominik treated me and found out about his profession. She tried to convince me to move with her, in her new apartment, all the way in Colorado. It was tempting but I couldn't leave my home and live so far away, and Crystal...well she's too busy for anyone even too busy to sleep for a full night. 

"You are intoxicated, why are you such an idiot! You have a family! I'm done with you. You're staying here till you learn your lesson. You need to learn Dominik, if you think I'm going to get you out then you're so wrong. Goodbye Dominik." I said, I turned around and began to walk away until Dominik yelled to stop me. 

"Princess! Wait! Don't leave me with these people! What about our son?!" I immediately stopped and turned around.

"Don't you fucking dare bring him into this Dominik! Ever again!" I warned, I turned back around and went home with Jason. When we arrived, Jason began to cry, "Shh it's going to be alright." That is the first lie I told my son. 

Tomorrow is another day...
