Hi guys, so wanted some feedback on how the story is thus far...

"I need you to go back to him," he said as he felt her become tense in his arms.
Pushing away from him she moved away from him fear and anger clear as day in her eyes.
"I can't do that," she said shaking her head no as she got out of bed but he got out of bed blocking her way before she could move further away from him.

"Nia listen to me," he said in a clam voice as she closed her eyes willing for all that was happening to be a dream.

"Relax kitten," he soothed her.
"Don't you tell me to relax when you want me to go back to that monster," she yelled shaking his hands away from her.
"Baby, please listen," he said pulling her into his arms as she let the floodgates open.

"I can't go back, you don't know what he will do to me," she cried shaking with fear.

"I know, I know, shhh," he murmured. "Legally speaking you are still his," he murmured. "There is nothing I can really do," he whispered wiping away her tears. "No you are lying," she said refusing to believe there was nothing he could do about this situation.

"Nia, I need you to go back to him, that's all. I will see what I can do," he said as he pushed her back towards the bed. "I promise you this he will not lay a hand on you, or I will kill him myself, even if it means I have to go to jail for this."

"No you are lying, please just stop lying," she said as she moved away from him.
"Nia," he gently called her.
"You are just like him. You lied to me. You said you love me, but you dont, if you loves me you wouldn't send me back to him," she said sinking to the floor.
"You lied," she kept repeating as he realised she was having an emotional breakdown as she folded herself into a ball.

He stood in shock, he had never seen her like this.

"I never lied to you love," he whispered but she didn't hear him.

Eyes shut sight she kept repeating the same words.

"Nia," he said her name once more moving towards her but he didn't register him.

Kneeling before her he watched as she succumbed to sleep on the floor.

A few minutes later he lifted her up placing her on the bed. Pulling her into his arms he enjoyed the feel of her in his arms glad she did not pull away.

His brother had informed him of a serious matter he needed to take care of and having Nia by his side would be scandalous thus tarnishing his family's name. he didn't want her to be stressed out by this problem.
She after all still married ti that buffoon.

He knew he was going to pay dearly for this move.

-----

He woke up to find her side already cold.
"Nia!" He yelled getting out of bed only for her to walk out of the bathroom.
Droplets of water running down her body being soaked up by the towel she had wrapped around her.

She did not say a word as she continued to the closet.

[LOVE THE CHORUS FOR THIS SONG]

"Good morning," he whispered nuzzling her neck pulling her towards him.
She placed her hands over his before she removed them from her body, a knock grabbing her attention as he ignored it.

A maid came in as she instructed her to take her luggage down.

He waited for the girl to leave before he turned to look at her swallowing hard as he watched her pull up her stockings.

"Baby," he murmured breaking the silence as he saw her become tense as she stopped doing up her blouse buttons.

Turning to face him he felt a sharp pain in his chest as she faced him. She did not bother to hide neither her anger or pain as she stood before him. He cursed his body for reacting to her anger in a manner not befitting the situation. 

"Cas please let me leave in peace," she whispered as he made a move to speak but nothing came out.

Stepping aside he allowed her to pass by him as she left the room.

"Nia, forgive me," he whispered as she continued walking out as he stood pondering on what to do.

"I don't know Cas. I don't know if I will ever be able to forgive you," she said weakly grabbing her handbag along the way. He looked up realizing she had heard him.

No she cant go to him, he realized.

Charging after her he swung the main doors open only to see the car driving off leaving with her.

--------------

"I told you, you would come back to me," Clive smirked as he looked at her depressed state.

she did not say anything to him as she stepped into the house as the butler approached grabbing her bags.

"Welcome back home," Clive whispered into her ear making her shiver as she stood in the same spot feeling his warm breath.

Chuckling he took ahold of her hand escorting her to her room.

"Nothing was changed as instructed, after all we wouldn't want you to forget the fun we had in here," he smirked watching her.

She remained silent as he looked at her before turning to leave.

As soon as the door closed she finally broke down.

Caspian

"What have I done?" he wondered as he stood staring in the distance the car had driven off to.

"Sir," he heard making him look back to see one of the maids looking worried. "Your robe," she stuttered as he looked down realizing he was only in sweatpants.

"Leave me!" he growled as she scurried back into the house. Walking into the foyer he grabbed the first thing in sight sending the flower vase crashing to the floor.

He stood looking at the mess he had made before he turned away from the mess. He spotted the other staff hiding away from him as he stood stomping towards their room.

Her scent still lingered in the room as he slowly closed it closing his eyes taking a deep calming breath. A smile came to his face as he pictured her smiling at him as they just sat together talking about random things in this very room watching the sun set through the glass doors. She always had the ability to take his mind away from work and just relax. Her laughter rang in his ears as he sunk down to the floor as pain replaced these happy thoughts.

How was he ever going to fix the problem he had created he wondered as an idea came to mind.

His phone started to ring pulling him out of his thoughts as he looked at the caller i.d.

"Yes brother," he said in a gruff voice.

"Where are you? Everyone is waiting for you. I have already sent transportation to your house," he said.

"What? No!" he said speaking into the dead phone.

Cursing he stood up and gathered himself as he prepared for the meeting he had to attend. A knock alerted him his transport was here as walked out o his room to be greeted by none other that his brothers secretary.

----------------------------------------------

"Good morning sir," he said with a slight bow.
"Its not a good morning at all Gerard," he said in a dead tone walking past the man.

Sliding into the waiting car he grumbled over why his brother had sent a motorcade when he knew he never liked such attention.

Arriving at Lá Royale (don't know if there is such a hotel but if there is this one is made up) he was thankful there was no press present. At least he got that right.

The lobby screamed wealth as chandeliers hung from the ceiling casting bright lights around the room.

However the lobby was full of security as he was led to the hotel restaurant.

Walking in he was greeted by his nephews and niece as their nanny chased after them.

Upon spotting him they ran towards him clinging onto his legs as he crouched down to their level.

"How is my little Rose," he asked seeing his niece beam at him as she hugged him with all her might hiding her face in the crook of his neck as the boys fired him with questions about how he was and why he had not visited them.
"Children," he heard their mother say in a soft but authoritative voice.
Turning they made their way back to the table as their father helped them into their chairs.

Sitting down he greeted his sister-in-law and then his brother.

"When does he want to make the announcement?" he asked his brother, Lucien.

"In a weeks time," he murmered drinking his coffee.

With a slight nod he became slightly relaxed as a servant approached their table.

"Did you have to clear the whole dining?" he questioned his brother who simply shrugged.

"You know I don't like the attention. Especially with my family here," he said as Cas smirked seeing Samiya mimic Lucien stopping when Lucien turned to face her.

Chuckling Cas turned to look at his meal as he realized he had ordered extra pancakes. Nia always wanted pancakes from his plate as he closed his eyes wondering how she was. Just then his phone rang as he excused himself from the table having not touched the food. Picking up the call he listened intently to what his assistant had to tell him.

"What the hell do you mean my marriage was not valid?" he growled.

"The officiators' license was expired at the moment so all the weddings he officiated for that period are void," he heard the young man ramble.

Taking a deep breath to calm himself he turned towards his brother.

"I must leave," he said in a cool tone.

"Is this about Sonia?" Lucien asked as Cas swiveled around facing his brother in question.

"Did you honestly think father would allow you to legally marry her?" he asked standing up. "I have spoke to Atarah and she does not want this union as much as you don't want anything to do with it. Knowing you, you already have started cooking a plan to disrupt this upcoming ball. But you should know the time has come for you to settle down and for you to start taking care of your half of the kingdom," Lucien murmured.

"I am not like you brother. You agreed to an arranged marriage but that is not me. I want Sonia and I will have her, now excuse me while I make arrangements to get my wife back."

"Relax, I know you love her. And technically she is not your wife. That is why I will help you. You see to be honest I did not love Samiya at first but when I did fall for her, I fell hard, and each day I am thankful that she is mine. So if you say you love this woman then I will help you get her back. But you must be careful for she is still bound to that lunatic."

"A lunatic I sent her back to. If anything happens to her I will never be able to forgive myself," he said staring out into the distance.

"That is one problem you need not worry about," Lucien smirked. "Come lets eat before my wife stars complaining about brunch being disturbed."

"Slept in again I see," Cas smirked as his brother sent him a warning glare.

----------

Nia

"Nia please pick up your phone. I just need to know you are safe, I need to hear your voice. There is something important I need to tell you. Sweetheart," he whispered in a voice that clearly showed the pain he felt as she listened to the message.

"Nia I am sorry, please just pick up so I know you are alright. I am slowly losing it because of your silence. I am a fool for sending you back to him. Please baby, just, just pick up."

Tears were running down her cheeks as she sat in her room listening to the voicemails over and over again.

A light tap on her door made her quickly wipe away the tears as she rushed towards it.
"Who is it?"

"Ma'am you have a visitor," the maid said.
Frowning she didn't bother asking who it was deciding to see for herself who exactly it was.

Making her way to the lounge she stopped dead in her tracks by the entrance as he turned to face her. Clearly he hasn't been sleeping or taking care of himself she figured from his overgrown beard and haggard state even though to others he might have looked presentable, she knew him all to well.

"Kitten," he smiled making her catch her breath. She had forgotten the power he had over her as he slowly walked towards her. "I have missed you," he murmured pulling her into his arms.
He felt her trembled in his arms as he pulled her closer to him wanting to comfort her. He was glad when she didn't pull away but disappointed when she did not reciprocate the hug.

"Are you alright sweetheart?" He said stepping back a little to look at her.
She stood rooted in place just starring at his chest before he tilted her head up to face him.
Cas stood more confused and worried now, it had only been two days since she left home.

"Come with me," he said tugging her hand as her feet complied following him at their own accord.

----

Many questions were running through her mind, the number one question being was he truly here or maybe she was just dreaming.

She heard a loud banging in the distant that became louder with each passing second making her wake up as she realized it was all a dream.

"Open this blood door now!" She heard Clive yell making her sit up in bed rushing to the bathroom.
The crashing of the door being broken down was loud enough to hear from the bathroom as she locked the door.

Sitting in the corner of the room she started to rock back and fourth trying to calm herself down, telling herself everything was going to be alright. She didn't hear the door being broken down as he walked into the bathroom eyes bloodshot as he searched the room before spotting her.
Pulling herself into a tight ball she felt the first punch land on her abdomen before he lifted her up throwing her into the bathtub.

Before she knew it he opened the taps letting the water flow over her face as she struggled to catch her breath. Struggling to get him to loosen his hold on her she tried everything as she scratched his arms catching a string of curses that escaped from his lips.

Suddenly she stopped struggling as he held her still under the running water.

A large pair of hands grabbed ahold of Clive shoving him out of the way as she was lifted from the tub. The individual started performing cpr as she was unresponsive.
