THE MASTERS ADDICTION - EPISODE 21

Nicholas

“she…. she…. “I watched him move his lip and gulped down

“speak!”I barked and he moved away from me, he was some metres away from me

“Her chances of giving birth again is 50-70. It’s…. it’s obvious she wouldn’t be able to give birth again ” The doctor said

I grunt and growled balling my first

“I don’t fucking care of her chances of giving birth again. What the fuck happened to my heir” I thundered

If this building wasn’t made of block, I’m sure my voice would have collapsed it down
The doctor shifted back as if she saw something

“she….. she…..lost the baby. We couldn’t save it”He muttered and I could feel cold swear dripping from my hair

Something cold ran down my spine and I shiver

She….. she lost my hair. I balled my fist so tightly and shut my eye

I eyes snapped open when I heard someone breathing heavily

I swiftly looked at that direction and saw her eyes opened as she gripped on the sheet……. terrifying, she obviously heard everything

“little …. Little queen ” I stuttered as she kept breathing heavily

I rushed towards her and held her both hands to the sheet

“shhhhhhhh… Calm down ” I muttered even though I was breaking down

“my… My baby…. I lost my baby” she mumbled as tears slide from the corner of her eyes

“stop crying…. We gonna make more babies. Your health matters most” I said stroking her hair as a tears slide down my eyes too

My heart was heavily loaded…. my little queen is never gonna give birth again

I hugged her tightly.

“it’s not the end of the world…. we are gonna make more babies ” I reassured her as my tears dropped more freely

I hugged her tightly as she cried on my shoulders

Louis

I walked upstairs to the place Chloe has been kept hostage

Yeah, it’s been a day already but Nick wasn’t back and the whole mansion has been In grief

I got to the room and saw two guards station at the entrance. They bow their head and I acknowledge with a nod.

They pushed the door opened for me and I walked in

The door was shut behind and I signed when I saw her staring at from the window

“Hey…. Demon. ” I said and she quickly turned and gave me a fake smile

“I couldnt sleep last night. The cries of those standing out there didn’t let me. What really happened yesterday night “She uttered walking back to the bed

“I’m feeling bad. Did something happen?? ” she asked again and that got me

Demon never get serious…….. But right now she’s sad

“Yh your twin sister was pushed down from the stair…….” I replied and she frowned then clenched her jaw

“She’s not my twin….. I don’t have any family apart from granny…… She just got my face, nothing much” she answered and I frowned

“it’s obvious……but what I don’t understand Is why you both can’t recognize yourselves ” I muttered and she rolled her eyes

“Stop being paranoid…. I came into this world alone, no parents just granny…. We survived alone even when granny acted creepy sometimes” She added and I felt her pain

It much really be hard for them

“I know you are entering the famous college here in the city. If you guys don’t have money. How were you admitted ” I asked

“That’s the question I still ask myself. We hardly eat twice a day but when it’s comes to educational stuff granny has the money. I have asked but she won’t tell me. The truth is I don’t know but one thing is sure, I’m gonna make her proud”she muttered staring in space

I nodded and leaned in the wall, with my both hands in my pant pocket

“you are the worst man that I have met. I cursed the day I gave birth to you” Granny kept raining curses at his son Mr Armstrong

“I know mum. You don’t have to remind me”he said

“we were leaving peacefully before that witch came in. If only you didn’t meet her, your wife would have survived ” Granny said and Mr Armstrong shut his eyes

“I’m the reason why Bennett died. I killed my own wife, You dont need to tell me. All this twenty years I have lived in guilt, wishing it’s all a dream too but she’s truly gone mom. Yes! I know how much you love my previous wife but she’s dead, I have moved on mum, please don’t bring in the past” Mr Armstrong said

“An elderly man who hasn’t man up. The people’s head of elders that can’t coordinate his home. Don’t even know the difference between his left from his right. I’m ashamed to be called your mother. You were told your wife was dead and you believe when you didn’t even see her corpse” She muttered

“mum……! ”

“shut up son and let me speak”she barked

“Your wife was pregnant with your children when she left the house that night….. You gonna faced the guilt of killing both mother and child ” She thundered

Mr Armstrong faced turned pale completely

“Bennett…. Bennett…. She was pregnant?? “He asked with an horror look

“I will only bring everything back in place for my grand children but you will face, bear and suffered alone with the witch you called wife. She and her bastard child will face my wrath. I won’t banish them from the city….. I will burn them alive immediately I get evidence against them”Granny said breathing so hard

“mum… my children…. my children… are they alive” he asked stuttering

“you will died without seeing your children…. I will make sure of that”She said

Granny shut him a glare and just then the door opened and Mrs Emmet walked in

“oh mum is back from her hide out….. What brought you back “Mrs Emmet asked

Granny grunt and grabbed her neck. Even if she’s old, she still got the energy

“I’m back to throw you out of my son life….. I’m heading to the master mansion, I will tell the whole city what you and that bastard child of yours did” She said still having her grip on her neck

She pushed her away and she landed on her but and gave a loud grunt

Mrs Emmet held her neck as she coughed out

She watched as granny walked out of the mansion and her eyes widened

, I will tell the whole city what you and that bastard child of yours did

She remembered granny words out sprayed out

No!

She won’t allow it. Mr Armstrong stood still as he watched everyone matching out of the mansion

Octavia sat at the rooftop crying her eyes out. It’s been two days she has been discharged from the hospital

The master left her two days alone at the hospital and never came back for her. She was brought in by the guards

When she arrived two days ago, the whole mansion was crowded with people

It came to her awareness that no one is allowed to leave the mansion until the mansion is back. It was shocking that the master wasn’t back even when he left her at the mansion two days ago

She sniffed and cried harder, not just for herself but the weak ones downstairs

No one knows what his judgement might be. They were all aware that he lost his heir and yet hasn’t come back to the mansion

The silent of the mansion was kill, some weak children died already from hunger and yet no one knows when the master would be back to give his final announcement.

Octavia kept crying and crying. The pains was too much for her and she needed some cuddling at that moment

But master was no where to be found. It’s like he just disappeared

Chloe was in the room where she was kept hostage when the door burst opened. She sighed when she saw it was Louis

“Master is back. You need to come downstairs ” Louis said to Octavia and held her hand

He held her hand tightly and squeezed it as they both walked out of the room

They kept walking until they got to the way that lead to the rooftop

“I saw the master third wife….. Your look alike coming here….. Let’s inform her that her husband is back” Louis said and Chloe nodded

They got to the rooftop and surprisingly she was there and they could hear her sobbing

Chloe felt bad instantly and removed her hand from Louis grip

She stared at the spot Octavia sat and walked to her. She sat down too and stared at her face

Her face were reddened, her eyes were swallowed and so with her lip

“it’s funny on how we got the same face you know…… ” Chloe said trying to start a conversation with her. She stared at the bracelet in Octavia wrist and then to hers

“I don’t know who you are…… But I know granny can explain this “she said and blew the hair from her face

“I like you already…… If you need a shoulder to cry on…. I’m always here” Chloe said and sniffed

It’s obvious she wants to break down

“your husband is back and you know what that means….. It’s best e head downstairs ” Chloe added and Octavia raised her head

She sprang on her feet and before they knew it, she ran out

Louis and Chloe but stared at each other and they both run out

*******

“Master is back ” Everyone whispered among themselves

Everyone has an hurtful look. Some were already crying, while some had fear in their eyes

Octavia got to the stairs and frowned as master walked in with Mabel, both holding hands

She slower her steps and walked down the stairs

Everyone lifted their face and they all could see the maliciously look on Mabel face

The guards cleared the way for him and he walked through it and stopped immediately he got to where Octavia was standing, He frowned and turned back to face the crowd

“you all are free to leave the mansion ” he announced and everyone gasped

Some even hard to blinked severally to be sure it’s master

“As for my last wife….. ” he said and paused

Octavia could hear her heart beating so fast

“she’s no longer needed in the mansion…. She can’t provide me a heir and I don’t need some barren woman to constitute nuisance in my mansion…. I need someone who can bear me a heir….. ” Master Nicholas said and Mabel winked

Octavia halted abruptly and staggered back slightly.

“my guards will escort her from the city…. Never to return again “he said sternly
Her eyes grew wider than an orange and my mouth fell opened, as my lips quivered in great shock

Octavia shook her head as tears dropped from her face

.

She couldnt believe what her eyes right now, it can’t be true.

“it’s not true…! ” she uttered loudly and rushed to where the master is and hugged him from behind

“it’s not true….. you are just mad that we lost the baby ” she muttered crying on his shoulder

“don’t send me away…. I promise to get pregnant….. I’m gonna get pregnant again ” she cried

He pulled her grip from his waist and turned to face her
“Can’t you see my decision is final?” He asked her

Her eyelids switched as tears suddenly ran down my cheeks,

“you are barren and can never give me my heir……! “he said

She shook her head.

“but…. but you said you love me” she stuttered as the tears kept pouring

“love..? ” Master Nicholas said and clenched his jaw

“I never love you. The master can never been in love. I only used you to satisfy my urge and luckily you got pregnant…… You expected love from someone who raped you…. how naive” he said and everyone gasped

“yes!….you rape me…. It doesn’t matter… You can rape me again… I promise to get pregnant… Don’t just send me away” Octavia plead and fell on her knees

“I was going to send you away immediately you give birth to my heir but you fucking lost it….. There’s no place here for a barren woman ” he grunt

“Guards escort her out of the city…. “he thundered

“please…. I beg of you… “Octavia cried

“Take this barren woman away…… I’m through with her” he said meaning every words

“you don’t need to stress the guards…. I’m gonna escort her out, myself ” Mabel said and walked to Octavia

He grabbed her hand and started pulling her out of the mansion

“please don’t send me away…… Give me just a chance…. I’m gonna get pregnant again……! ” she cried as Mabel kept pulling her out….
