Never Leave My Sight Because Of Kate.
Alex's POV .
My mom had called Kate to the house and vowed I was going to make her my wife. I was still trying to find a solution to avoid Kate but then , Abby walked into the house.
I was trying to protect her from my mom and Kate when Kate barged into my room and sent Abby away. Now I couldn't get my head into the game.
Bothered by what would happen to Abby, confused by what her thoughts were at that moment, trying to get my head into the game, I pinched the tip of my nose slightly in frustration .
I strolled from one end of my room to another in absolute confusion and regrets. Regrets of leaving my door open to a stranger known as my betrothed as mom would say.
Regrets of letting Abby leave my sight without doing a single thing to stop her or keep her to myself.
I looked up at the clock that was hinged against the wall to check the time with worries and anger piling up in me.
It was pretty late and yet not a single call from Abby about her safe arrival at home. I wasn't even sure she had her phone with her.
I placed my hands on my waist as I turned to my phone which was on my bed, waiting to see a screen light by the mercies of God but there was totally nothing.
What was I going to do now? She had misinterpreted the whole situation and I wasn't sure of how to make her see reasons with me if she was nowhere to be found.
I heaved a sigh as I kept on roaming around my room to find a perfect solution. I was going to make her come back with me to my mansion until a thought popped into my mind.
I gasped before walking over to where my phone was kept. I picked it up and after getting Abby's number, I called it immediately.
It kept on ringing but no one was picking up the call, there was no response from the other side of the phone.
I kept on calling for about three to four times and still, no response. It made me scared, it made me panic.
At some point, I felt like I was going to get a panic attack because of what was happening to me.
I closed my eyes for a second, still standing at that same spot with worries filled in my head.
"I wish and hope she is fine!" I mumbled to myself in memory of my beloved Abby.
I was going to call her phone again when suddenly, my door opened without a knock at the door.
"I see you do not have doors in your house.. what do you want from me?" I questioned with a Cold and arrogant tone as I detested her presence and continuously longed for Abby's presence in my room.
It was Kate just as expected and I wasn't happy seeing her in my room knowing that she was the reason Abby left my house earlier .
"I see you are still awake, Alex. Pardon my manners but I think we should make this work and …." She was going to say when I immediately interrupted her speech.
"Make things work how? Like between the both of us?" I chuckled, mocking her openly as I felt she had no shame or whatsoever .
"I don't get it, is it bad to talk to my betrothed about making things work? Your mom has already given us a go ahead order to be together so why do you keep fighting it?" She inquired, increasing her voice which made me vexed.
"Because I am with a lady and no matter what happens Kate, I will never , ever come close to you!" I asserted the moment she ended her silly statement about us being together.
Not in my next life was I ever going to leave Abby to herself, Never again.
Kate came closer to me , seeing that I wasn't going to listen to her no matter what she said to me.
She placed her hand on my chest with her eyes going all deem and her lips being showcased to me just to draw my attention.
She was obviously going to do something silly, but I was a man of my words and would never look at any other woman just as I promised Jayden, My son.
I immediately moved my body away from her reach and unashamedly, she came closer again, but this time with a whisper of hate.
"Abby once had an affair with Jack, she also has a baby for him, why don't you let her go when she's still lying to you, Alex?. I won't deny you, not once"
She leaned closer for a kiss but disgustingly, I grabbed her arms and pushed her away from my sight.
"What the fuck is wrong with you??" She yelled at the top of her voice in anger but that didn't mean anything to me.
Instead, it was at that point I knew why Abby had run away. She was the same Kate that had pushed Abby to the ground when she was heavily pregnant for my child.
Knowing this alone made my anger and hatred for Kate grow even more. She wanted to chew where she didn't sow, she wanted to make me hate Abby but little did she know I was more than what she thought of me.
"So much for your so-called loyal life, your so-called bargain to work together. Abby's child is my child and not Jack. I see you got it all wrong and you wish to claim her man twice just like you did before." I spoke with anger boiling up on the inside of my body as I glared at her on my bed.
"You disgust me Kate … you weren't even ashamed of yourself too. You don't deserve to live, you don't deserve to breathe the same air as her. She is way more of a Saint than you!!" I blurted out furiously before turning to leave my room.
"But Alex, do you know if she loves you? How sure are you she will be loyal to you just like…." She was obviously feigning her act at this moment as she spoke to me in tears.
"Abby is always loyal to the one she loves. " I halted with my side face turned halfway to Kate who was still on my bed.
"If she doesn't love me, then I would go a thousand miles to make her see that my heart will forever yearn and burn for her. When you are done faking it, you leave my room!!" I declared without thinking twice.
After all, Abby was my woman, my pride and no one was going to change that.
I dashed out of the room and finally, what I've been waiting for happened. My phone beeped and the moment I looked at it, I realised it was Abby that was calling.
Without hesitation , I picked up the call but before I could ask where she was, I heard my son's voice on the phone.
Jayden kept on crying like he had lost something so precious and dear to him.
"What is the matter? What has happened to you Jayden? Why the fuck are you crying?" I questioned with my eyes bulging out and fear gripping my soul.
I had for a second thought that Abby was dead, and anyone around me would have thought so too.
"My mom, my mom isn't at home and it's so dark in here. I can't breath, I need to see my mom!" He cried out over and over again on the phone.
It made me feel sad , it made me feel wasted. I couldn't think straight for a minute because of how bad my son was feeling.
I heaved a heavy sigh before I spoke up to him gently, like a father should. I was a father now and it was time to start my fatherly duties.
"I promised to take care of you and your mom Jayden.. I'll do that… I'll bring mom home and no matter what, she'll come back alive okay? Let me go get mom back to you. I love you!" I ended the call the minute I calmed him down.
He wasn't the big issue right now, Abby was.
I gave a quick thought of where she would be or go to in such a situation, where she would find it pleasing to stay in and that was when it came into my mind.
I raised my phone to my sight and immediately, I dialled King's number which he responded to instantly.
"Sir!" He started the moment he picked up the call.
"Go get Jayden to the new house, I will meet you there soon with Abby!" I commanded with a throaty but authoritative voice before dashing out of the house.
If there was anywhere Abby would go to, it was the club close to her former house. That was the only place she found peaceful no matter the noise there.
I climbed into my car and without hesitation, I drove off to go pick her up from such a nasty place.
The second I got there, I hurriedly went into the bar with my eyes all over the place to find Abby .
I searched and searched, ignoring the sight of strippers, the bar men , the ladies that had came to probably have fun. It was an eye sore though but I still needed to find one person and that was Abby.
Here I was, standing close to the door with my eyes all over the place, in search of my own Abby.
I kept on looking around for her dress when finally, I saw her marching forwards to my direction sluggishly and was under the influence of alcohol as she staggered .
She was going to fall to the ground after dashing her foot on the table closeby.
I Couldn't let that happen, knowing she could injure herself. Immediately rushed to her, I rushed to where she was and watched her fall into my arms just as I wanted, with her head resting on my right shoulder and her breath hitting my neck.
"What took you so long to come pick me up, what made you delay?" She whispered into my ear as I tried hearing her clearly in such a loud environment.
"You shouldn't have fucking come here Abby … you should have stayed with me even when Kate was there." I screamed on top of my voice so she could hear me clearly and I bet she did.
She pulled out of my embrace and with the brightest smile on her face, she leaned forward to kiss me gently on my lips,ignoring the eyes of others on us.
Her hands wrapped around my neck and because I love her and wasn't ashamed of her, I lapped my arms on her waist, kissing her with love, care and Pain.
