《Life After An Unwanted Marriage》Chapter 6
Advertisement
It was around seven-thirty when Serenity arrived at the mansion. The mansion itself was situated in an isolated area, behind the tall trees, on top of a plateau-like landscape that overlooked the wonderful city of London. The mansion was huge with a hint of classical designs on the outside but modernized on the inside.
Upon entering the front doors, serenity sauntered along the corridor and up the stairs towards her bedroom.
"Serenity, dear" someone called her from behind. Stopping her pace, she turned around and saw Jane, one of her companions inside the house for the last ten months. Jade is the oldest maid in the house with greyish colored hair paired with grey storming eyes and a thin figure. She's on her mid-fifties.
Serenity urged Jane to call her by her first name in the first place which at first Jane became hesitant at but with Serenity's persuasion, she finally gave in. She's one amongst the people who helped her blend in. The woman even treated her as a daughter.
Although tired, Serenity greeted her with a smile on her face. " Yes?"
"Someone is here to see you," Jade said.
But I just entered the house two and a half minutes ago she mused.
"What's the name?"
Jade massaged her forehead as if remembering the name. "Uhm, I remembered its Ai-dan, Ei-than, uhhm maybe Na---"
"Nathan?" Serenity interrupted smiling at the old woman.
"Oh yes,! I really need to check on my memory. How could I forget things easily" Jade said laughing at her mistake. " by the way dear, he's waiting for you in the living room," she said before walking away.
Serenity just chuckled at her mistake before heading downstairs.

"So what brings you here, Nathan?" She inquired as she seated herself opposite of the couch he was sitting.

"You left your phone at the orphanage. I lost track of your car so I opened your phone and saw your address. Sorry, I used it without your permission" he explained handing her the phone.
"It is okay, Thankyou. So... Do you want something to drink?"
"Oh no, I'm heading back. It is nice meeting you sooner Serie"
They both stood up.
"You too, Nathan"
Then Serenity noticed the sudden stiff posture of Nathan and his eyes that widened with surprise as if he had seen a ghost or something. That's when an arm snaked around her waist which made her gasped.
She tilted her body to the side and then looked at the stranger but that was no stranger: a pair of dark brown orbs staring back at her amber swirls, dark brown hair arranged in a perfect quiff and a god-like face. She knew who this man is. Her husband.
"Andrei" she breathed out.
His eyes turned to the man in front of them before narrowing it.
Serenity followed his gaze where it landed on Nathan.
"Uhhmm, I should get going. Serie, Mr. Willforth, goodnight" he turned away but not before secretly winking at serenity as if wishing her a really good night and that didn't go unnoticed by Andrei who was turning to despise the man.
When he was gone. Serenity's heart was leaping out of utter nervousness. She wished she had stopped Nathan and made him stay a little bit longer or she could've had accompanied him outside the house.
Slowly, she turned and met his mesmerizing cold eyes.
"Bedroom Upstairs," he told her sternly.
He walked ahead of her and she followed. It was awkward for Serenity as an eerie silence surrounded them both. Reaching upstairs she noticed that they were heading to her bedroom.

Entering the door, Serenity took this as an opportunity to head straight to the bathroom, to get away from his sight.
"How did he knew your address?" He asked in a deep intimidating voice as he faced the tall bay windows with his hands on his trouser's pockets.
Serenity froze on her steps. She looked at him and then noticed that his back is still facing her.
"He came here to return my phone," she said out of nervousness.
"Oh really? Or maybe you're becoming the unfaithful one around here"
That's it, these were the words that made her lose her control. Anger welled upon her but she remained her composure and her sanity. Who knows she could lose it with this man.
"To clarify things here, I just met him at the orphanage today and I left my phone there, he lost track of my car so he used my cell phone, that's when he saw my address and went to this house to give it back so don't dare blame such unnecessary things on me, maybe you're the one who's proving unfaithful here but who cares. This marriage was fake for I don't know what reason. Why did you even marry me in the first place?" She ranted out.
He turned to face her. Still, his face was void of any emotions which she couldn't comprehend why.
"To give me an heir"
Her eyes widened like saucers and she now lost her composure.
"You married me to give you an heir?!!! Oh for goodness sake, Andrei!!!!! You've got women who are more than willing to give you a child!!!
Look! You're out of your mind if you'll think that I'll have sex with you, much less, bear your child..... I want a divorce!" She demanded her hands on her hips.
"You're not getting one" ones again he remained stoic. He began to close the distance between them. She stood firm on her spot as if saying that she's not afraid of him but deep inside she is.
Finally reaching her, he grabbed her by the waist then pressed her body against his. She felt his hard chest slammed against her delicate ones.
Now she couldn't stand firm. The close proximity was making her body weak.
"I haven't had sex on that ten months that I'm gone. I could've but I don't want it to be a bunch of gold diggers. I'm a man with needs and as my wife you're the one who'll fulfill that needs.
Whether you like it or not we'll have sex right here and right now."
