I Will Get You And The Kids Out Of Here
Brigitta sat on the bed, lonely in the extremely dark room, she didn’t know how many hours had passed but she knew she was in misery and that only a miracle can save her from the hands of Ragnar Marshall. Ever since her failed attempt to open the door of her room, she had retired to the bed, curling herself up like a baby in the womb. Her most concern wasn’t the torture she was going through at the moment, it’s not been able to see her kids.
She had imagined how much her kids will miss her. How they would have been very troubled about her whereabout. She can’t imagine what state the kids and Nikolai would be now.
All of a sudden, she heard a sound of the door opening then the light in the room surprisingly came on. Seeing Ragnar Marshall standing tall in the room, her heart began to beat as she stare at his emotionless face.
“Who is Nikolai?” He asked.
“My friend…” She answered at once. Her heart still beating hard against her chest. When he opened his mouth to speak, she had thought he want to question her as regarding why she dared to attempt to open the door. Why won’t she be scared of a man who killed his own friend before her. Of a man who ensured two women were thrown off the tower and who made sure that another woman was thrown into the furnace. How cruel and brutal could such a man be? Does he even have a conscience? He even killed six one of the seven Lords of his own family.
Ragnar Marshall walked up to her slowly, with every step he took, she could hear the heavy palpitating of her heart. Then he suddenly paused when he got before the edge of the bed. She was on the bed. She didn’t know whether to stand or sit.
“Sit well.” He ordered and she immediately stood from the bed. Being on the bed makes her feel vulnerable.
“I didn’t tell you to stand. I said ‘sit well.'”
“I’m very much comfortable like this, sir. Thank you.” She said fearfully.
“Sit or I make you to!” His voice was stern and serious.
She immediately sat on the bed, her two legs resting on the floor. Sitting on the bed was like sitting on hot coal.
“He and your kids are worried about you,” he said. Brigitta glanced at him and quickly took down her face, not knowing exactly what to say.
“He and the kids are here!” Once he said this, her heart limped. It was as if it will jump off her throat. “Sir?”
“You heard me.” He then went to sit on the big couch, resting his two arms on the handrest majestically.
“Please don’t hurt them, sir… Please… They are innocent.”
“Nikolai isn’t their father, no?”
“He’s not.” She quickly corrected, “he’s not, sir.”
“But he’s with the kids.”
“He’s my bestfriend, we agree for him to have the kids.” She responded.
“I’ll let you see the kids.”
“Thank you, sir… Thank you so…”
“I’ll hold your kids hostage. With that, you will be free to go out. Any attempt you make to escape will have a ripple effect on your kids” He said.
“Got it, sir.” She said. “At least she will be able to see her kids and go out.”
“Did you know your godfather’s whereabout?” He asked, “I am not interested in you, I am in your godfather. You tell me where he is and I spare you.”NôvelDrama.Org © content.
“Honestly, I… do not know.” She stuttered. “Although he’s my godfather, I am only meeting him for the first time after many years.”
“You are not telling the truth.” He said, not believing a single word from her, “you will go out and meet Nikolai and your kids and you must pretend as though everything is alright.”
“Got it, sir.” She immediately stood from the bed. She couldn’t wait to escape this room. “Can I leave… sir?”
“You may.”
At once, she rushed out of the room. She soon got to where Nikolai and her kids sat. When the kids saw her, their happiness knew no bound, they ran to her at once and hugged her dearly. She couldn’t help the strand of tears that forced itself out of her eyes. She had missed the kids so much. Being away from the kids, to her, is the greatest torture but now that Ragnar had said the kids would live here, though as his hostage, she still felt a little bit better. At least, she will be able to have access to the kids.
“Mom, where have you been?” Chester asked at once.
“Mom, you dissapeared without informing us, ” Henley, the second boy questioned.
Birdie, the only girl amidst them spoke, “we were so worried, mom.”
She sat and drawled her children closer to herself, kissing them on their forehead one after the other. “I’ll explain to you all this night. I’m so sorry.” She said as she ensured her children sat. She had examined them and seeing that they were looking healthy, she exhaled relaxedly. She turned to Nikolai gratefully, “Nikolai, thank you so much, you have been so hardworking on the kids.”
“Don’t thank me, Brigitta. What are friends for?” He said and asked curiously, “we must talk, Brigitta.” He didn’t want to say what’s on his mind in the presence of the kids.
Since Ragnar Marshall had said her kids must stay here, she then said to the kids, “why don’t you play around this mansion. Nikolai and I needs to talk.”
“Okay,” the children responded and dispersed. Their eyes had already been on the extreme and extraordinary beauty of the house. They can’t wait to explore the grandeur and excellence of the house.
As the children dispersed from the two adult’s presence, Nikolai sat well with his attention set keenly on her, “what in the world happened, Brigitta? You must tell me the truth.”
“I’ve never lied to you.” She said and continued, “Remember I told you that the man I married turned out to be Ragnar Marshall. Now I think I’m in hot soup, my godfather, Miguel Marcola offended Ragnar Marshall in the past. I don’t know what exactly caused their feud but I know they are mortal enemies.”
She further said, “Ragnar Marshall found out I met with Miguel Marcola who had dissapeared for years and had suddenly reappeared. Now he said unless I help him find Miguel Marcola, he would inflict all the pain Miguel inflicted on him on me.”
“So he held you hostage since then?”
“We could use that word. But seeing that I’m his wife by law, can we still use the word ‘hostage?'”
“Brigitta, don’t tell me you are not planning to escape?” He quickly added, “cause I’ll get you and the kids out of here today, no matter what.” He said determinedly.
