Chapter 256

The Unwanted Bride Of Atticus Fawn Chapter 256 Book 3 Chapter 91 ~WILLOW~

I looked around me; I was in a room with glass walls. I was trapped with nowhere to run. Cassius was standing outside looking at me. He was standing there, staring, not saying a single word. He was creeping me out. I felt like he would snap any minute now and do something insane. Why were his eyes so scary but captivating to look at?

Another shiver runs down my spine and not in a good way. I couldn’t believe this was happening.

I didn’t know much about this man. All I knew was that he was Autumn and Clarissa’s brother and had the power to destroy our world.

What more did you need to know about someone? The fact that he could destroy our world was enough to know the kind of person he was.

There was so much darkness in his eyes that it terrified me. I’ve never seen a man with such soulless eyes. It’s almost like he was consumed by his need to take over the world. Just like his father.

“Are you not going to say anything?” I demand. The silence was making me feel ten times worse.

He doesn’t answer me. Instead, he walks towards a table and grabs a drink.

Was this the appropriate time for him to be drinking? Wouldn’t he already be consumed with his greed for power? What else did he need?

I jump when he slams it against the glass wall until it shatters into hundreds of pieces.

What the hell?

Why did he do that? How insane was this man?

He looks up at me and I can see the wickedness in his gaze. He’d intentionally done that to scare me and he had succeeded. I could see the victory in his eyes.

A true psychopath.

“You’re terrified.” He finally says. “I thought my opponent would be stronger than this. Not some weak girl who has no clue what she can do. You bring shame to your family, Willow. This was supposed to be an exciting night for me but you are making it quite the opposite of that.”

“I’m new to this.” I snap. “I didn’t know who I was until a few days ago.”

I needed to remind him of that fact. I don’t think he cared about that.

With his tongue against his cheek, he does the same thing to another glass.

This time, I don’t even blink.

He quirks a brow, “You learn quickly, Willow. It’s a shame I’ll have to get rid of you before we can get to know each other better.”

“I don’t think you thought this entire thing through.” I point out to him. “You chose the worst timing to kidnap me. My sisters were right there.”

“And they did nothing to help you.” He says before I could continue.

“You didn’t give them a chance to. You took the cowardly way out. You waited until they weren’t around to snatch me. I thought you were powerful. Why didn’t you try to take me when they were around?”

He quirks a brow, “I may be powerful, but I’m not stupid. There’s always the right time to attack, and I always plan my calculations accurately.”

“You’re wrong.” I snap. “Your calculations have failed you this time.”

“And why is that?” He asks, suddenly uninterested in our conversation.

“Because Dante was there.” I hiss.

“The husband who didn’t want you to begin with?” He asks. “The same husband who watched me take you and didn’t do anything about it?”

I wince at his questions but try to hide my facial expressions from him. I didn’t want him to know what kind of effect his words had on me.

“I meant that his family would have already been on their way to get to him after the fight,” I explain. “It means that Autumn and Clarissa will be there. Do you know what that means since you seem to know everything?”

His eyes narrowed slightly, and I knew he understood what I meant.

“Yes, Cassius,” I smile. “My sisters will be there when Autumn and Clarissa arrive. It means that just like you’re holding me captive, they can do the same.”

I knew my sisters wouldn’t hurt them. They couldn’t. Not without me. He didn’t need to know that however.

Cassius needed his sisters just like I needed mine.

“I guess you didn’t think everything through.” I point out. “Your plans were poorly executed.”

His hands tightened into fists at his sides, and he angrily stormed off.

When he was gone, I fell back against the floor. I had to find a way to get out of here.

Did Cassius already know I was pregnant?

I was terrified of what he could do to me if he ever found out.

He didn’t have to kill me, but he could hurt my baby.

I gently touched my stomach and felt my fear double.

I had to get out of here!
