Just Once

Three years of marriage brought nothing but a thorn to my heart. My child was critically ill and in need of treatment. My husband didn't care and even called me unfaithful. In my desperation, I sold my body and soul in exchange for the recovery of my child. His name was Benjamin. Dominating the underworld and influencing politics, he was like a poppy that impressed, captivated, broke, and disillusioned me. He said that different from the others who approached me only for sex, he wanted every part of me. He also said that I was his only one and that nothing in this world could compare with me. Then he told me that these were all lies. I told him that these were true to me.

She quickly stopped her movements and looked at me. "Goodness, child. Where's the fire?" she questioned with a light laugh.

I stopped running when I was in front of her. Unfortunately, I had to catch my breath before telling her the news. "Take deep breaths, Alicia" David said from next to me. I didn't even notice he got out of the car.

Following his instructions, I slowly got my breathing under control. "I know what's wrong with Keith" I informed her. "Its magical. There has to be a spell or something that's keeping him from waking up" I stated. Its just a theory, but it makes sense. Its the only thing that's keeping him unconscious.

She pondered over my idea before slowly nodding her head. "That is very possible" she mused. "But there is no way to undo the spell if you two are still bonded" she added.

I frowned. "Then, I'll break the bond" I decided.
