3: Ezra’s freedom

EZRA

I stared blankly . What mess am I getting into ? I ask myself 

Gerald and I haven't even discussed our shenanigans properly yet and I'm been a offered life changing deal 

I glanced at Kim who looked just as shocked as I am . 

"What's wrong with you Whitney ?" Kim asked 

She put her right hand out to stop Kim from talking "Ain't speaking with you Kimberly". She says 

I sighed , my heart beating fast . She's exactly like my elder sister desire , always ready to get what they want

"I'm sorry but I really do not appreciate this . It's fine if you have a problem with me but trust me the last thing I want or need is your money"

She started laughing loudly . The man beside as well and they both laughed till they were gasping for air 

Kim and I looked confused . Gerald came into the room and immediately he saw , he shook his head 

"She must have got you with her crazy attitude". He says 

I nodded cause she definitely as a crazy attitude 

"Whoa whoa ! Crazy attitude ? I was just teasing her a bit"

"Well look at her face , she looks terrified and annoyed . You are an actress doesn't mean you act everywhere and God knows why you got married to someone exactly like you". Gerald hissed loudly , asking me "are you fine ?"

I nodded while Whitney pulled me in for a hug . She was sniffing 

"Are you crying?" I worriedly asked 

I looked at Gerald who looked disgusted "she's not crying but acting"

After our hospital backlash , Whitney and I bonded better . Gerald insisted on dropping me off when Kim intentionally said "I have a shift in thirty minutes . Please can you drop her off ?"

Although I protested saying I will order an Uber , Gerald insisted 

The car ride to the house was quiet and he was focused on the rod while I kept stealing a glance . I was caught off guard when I just stayed staring at him as he drives . 

Never have I ever thought anyone Looks sexy and breathtaking while driving but he did 

He had one hand on the staring wheel and I stared , amazed at our dangeoursly hot he's .

"Do I have something on me ?" He asked 

I regained composure and i replied "no you don't"

So why were you ...."why did you stop driving ?" I asked trying to change the conversation 

"Yeah ! Your address , you only gave me the name of your estate 

We are there now , so you home address"

I looked out , and we were really right in front of the estate . For some reason , I felt sad . I know I hate home but never have I been this sad 

He dropped me off . The whole house was quiet so I tipped toe to my room trying to avoid any unnecessary questions 

Immediately i successfully entered my room , I locked the door with the key . Leaning my back against the wall on how I successfully entered my room 

I sighed loudly ,smiling happily till I looked up . Bryan was sitted on my bed looking at me 

"I had you got discharged few hours ago , why are you just getting back ?"

My blood started pumping fast . I tried searching for my phone in my pocket but it wasn't there 

"I'm speaking !" He shouted 

I jolted , feeling my pulse and breathing rise. I answered him , my mouths trembling causing me to stammer 

I…. Ha..d lunch with Gerald and ….. "the doctor? or should I call him brother in law ?"

Bryan I'm sorry I had …."keep shut ! You need not speak when I'm talking"

I nodded , trying to open the door sliently , I listened to the gibberish he was uttering . I successfully opened the door and immediately I saw him coming towards me , I ran out banging the door behind me .

He obviously ran after me and just when I thought I escaped him, he pushed me the stairs .

I instantly became weak and blood rushing from the side of my head 

I moved to back slowly as he approached me but I was too weak 

"I give you ten hours , cut off the engagement with that motherfucker . You belong to me , I own you and every bit of you"

I stayed quiet , trying to catch my breath .

He roughly tore my silk top , licking his lips , he bit hard on my left nipple causing me to scream 

He didn't care about my cry or screams , all he wanted is to rape me 

He pulled down my jeans , leaving me in my panties . I tried fighting but I couldn't 

He made me weak , my weak functioning brain became weaker . My eyes slightly opened , I looked at him as he brought out his dick, forcing it into my mouth 

I fumbled ,as he chocked me while force his huge dick into my mouth .

He derives pleasure in seeing me cry , seeing me hurt . While I was crying , he was moaning 

He took down my panties . This is not the first time he's raping me 

I pleaded this time around , I pleaded more than I have ever done in my life but all he had to say is "I will fuck yiu hard , empty me semans in you and get you pregnant so no fucking man will dare to have you"

"Please Bryan , please" I pleaded with tears all over my face 

I closed my eyes tightly not wanting to see him put his dick inside me but nothing entered inside, I had him grunt in pain . 

I opened my eyes slowly , meeting an ocean blue eyes right in front of me 

"Gerald ?"

That's all I remember before blacking out . I met myself in the same hospital bed again 

My whole family hoverd around me . While they looked at me in disgust 

I noticed Gerald was sitting right beside me . He held my hand using his thumb to brush my hand 

I wept , burying myself on his shoulder . 

"Did Bryan really do this to you ?" Father asked 

I was scared , I looked at mum , Felicia and desire. They all expect one answer and that is "NO" but u have had enough . So I replied "yes he did" tears rolling down my cheeks 

Mum immediately shouted "How dare you accuse my son of such criminal behavior ?"

"She's crazy Mum, we need to send her to the asylum". Felicia added 

" That's enough ! Do you have proof of this deadly allegation?" Dad asked 

I looked at him , confused , angry and annoyed . Did he just ask me that ? 

Gerald stood up angrily "don't mean to intrude but as you all know , Ezra is my fiancé and I won't stand y'all side of the story ."

Dad totally ignored him and he asked one more time "Do you have a solid proof that Bryan did this ?" I nodded , telling him I don't have a proof 

"I thought as much . Get well soon". Dad said before turning to leave 

Gerald stopped him and he said "I will hire the best lawyer for this case . Your son will serve the time he needs to and I will make sure each and everyone of you get punished if you neglect or try to cover up for Bryan Martins"

Dad glanced at me before leaving the hospital room everyone else going behind him . I broke down instantly , crying and wailing 

Gerald pulled me to his chest , patting my head "I will

Make sure he pays for every harm he has caused you and everyone else as well"

I glanced up at him , seeing how raged his eyes are , I felt like I have someone to protect me

The next morning , I got discharged from the hospital . Whitney offered for me to stay over at her place so Gerald decided to drive me to Whitney's 

"Can we stop by at my dad's place ?" I asked 

His facial expression immediately changed and he asked "why ?"

"I need to take few of my stuffs . I don't want to go to that house again till I die"

He sighed and checked his direction . When we got to the front of the house , Gerald packed the car and followed me in .

Dad and everyone were sitted in the living room . Immediately I entered,dad stood up , making the rest of them stand as well 

"Thanks for bringing her home Gerald". Dad says 

Gerald nodded . "I will be back". I said to him 

Few minutes later , I came back downstairs with a big box , containing my essentials . Leaving the rest for the room and the house as I will never be stepping foot in here anymore 

They all stood up seeing me come down with my bag 

"What are you doing ?" Dad asked 

"Uhmm this is where we end whatever family ties we have . You can remove me from your family name and everything relating to this family but one thing is sure . I will make sure Bryan pays for all he has done to me and the rest of you won't be punished by me but by God"

Gerald helped me with the bag and right in front of the house ,there are papperazi. Asking all kinds of questions 

"Are your allegations true ? Did you really harm your brother ? What happened?"

Gerald tried taking me away from them but i went back.

Immediately I stood in front of them , there were a lot of mic close to my mouth 

I turned my back to see dad and everyone outside looking at me 

"Good morning world . My name is Ezra 

You probably use to know me has Ezra martins but I'm just Ezra now cause I'm no longer a part of this sad , destroyed family .

Did Bryan really hurt me ? Yes !

Bryan has been sexually harrasing me for almost twelve years now and I'm ready to speak and put in jail where people like him belongs"

Do you have anything to do with Gerald Bryson ?

"She's my fiancé". Gerald replied them 

"But you just ended your engagement with Laura , how is it possible you have a fiancé now ?"

I glanced up at him , shocked by the news I just had . I never had a chance to do a proper check on my soon to be husband 

He replied then saying ;

"Love is stronger than any other thing and whatever I have here , i know it's real"
