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.

I know that I lied to you, a lot. But I really love you. You're the best daughter anyone could ask for. And I would never lie about that. I wish I could say that I'm sorry you missed out on the luxurious life that you could've had with the Royals. But that would be a lie.

I'm not sorry that I kidnapped you. It may sound malicious and sadistic, but its the truth. By kidnapping you, I got the best daughter in the whole world. I got to raise an incredible young woman, who I am extremely proud of.

I love you so much, Alicia.

I sighed and walked over to the cells. I plopped myself on one of the beds and set the note down next to me. Anthony planned this for when he died. I've always known that he loved me- I never doubted that- but I at least thought he would be remorseful about taking me. I was a baby, and he took me away from my parents. Maybe he was a little crazy.
