Undefiled Queen

“Are you okay, princess?” My uncle was in agony hearing my decision.

“I am absolutely fine, uncle Peter.” I told him I would answer all his questions once I reached him.  I told him not to inform anybody including Stephen and promised him I will discuss everything with him in detail once I will reach him.  Though with anguish, he agreed to me disapprovingly.All content is © N0velDrama.Org.

Soon after I disconnected his call, I called my cousin Sam, who now works and resides in Dubai.  I have to pack my things fast before my husband reaches home.  I know pretty well, I cannot escape Stephen’s grip, least of all moving even from this house if I am late.

I packed my things hastily, shuffling them in my bag.  I am a woman of pride.  I would never touch even a single penny of his.  I booked four air tickets from the savings I had when I worked. I packed the dresses and jewelry I brought from my house leaving the things he and his family purchased.

I ran down the stairs hurriedly.  All the servants in the house were having a staring contest at me.  In order that they don’t get any doubts, I told them that my uncle had fallen sick and it was an emergency for me to leave him for a few days and once he settles down I will be back.

They had relaxed faces and consoled me that they will inform Stephen of everything when he gets back home.  I smiled inside and congratulated myself that I had been successful in manipulating them.  Giving one last glance to the house where I thought I would build my future, I left straight without looking back.

I rushed home and told my uncle everything.  He tried to reason me out and asked me to continue with my marriage as everything that happened was a part of fate and my husband could not help the situation in any way.  Now I doubt he was probably afraid of Stephen’s next course of action.

In their thirty years of marital relationship, my uncle never hid anything from my aunt. But today he kept her away from the most important truth regarding me. When thought carefully, it made sense. He is definitely frightened of Stephen. And thus to avoid complications, he kept his wife out of everything.

Nevertheless, when I make the decision, nobody can try to intercede with it.  Rage began to take control of my mind.  These rich people drink and drool and when that is not enough for their whims and fancies, they claim innocent lives.  My family suffered a lot and it is time he, his family are going to reap the fruit of it. My uncle was completely unsuccessful in convincing me. Though not before a drama, some things were understood and some not by other members. And finally everyone agreed and I vacated my house with my aunt, uncle and brother.

He tried to deceive me. It was the only sentence which was ringing in my ears. Had he told me the truth before our marriage, maybe I would have given our relationship a chance considering the mishap as a part of destiny.  But it was not only him , his family too continued to betray me supporting him in the lie which was just not acceptable to me.  The biggest and most important thing for the success of marriage according to me is ‘trust’ and I don’t trust him anymore for his perfidy.  Keeping this thought in my mind I proceeded towards the airport with my family.

Soon I will file for divorce.

Stephen’s POV

I went to my office at my usual time but I could not concentrate on any of my work.  My Flower, my wife was all the time incubating my thoughts, capturing my mind and body.  I tried to stay away from her intuitions and direct my mind towards the work but could not concentrate.   I took the phone in my hand and dialed her number but my coherent thoughts abruptly intervened.  I immediately cut the call. What if she is still sleeping?  She was very tired with the entire journey we had. Trying to calm myself from her rumination, I diverted my attention to the stalk of papers on my table which required my signatures.

My secretary Tina came to inform me that I had a meeting with the shareholders of our company for the upcoming expansion in Dubai.  The project has been set and the plan is on the headway.  I had to go to Dubai this weekend to check the progress and inspect the new branch which is set up.  But I am no longer in the mood to go because my wife has to stay at home.  I cannot take her with me because it remains a surprise for her.  Now that she has completed her post graduation and going to do a special business course shortly, I wanted her to have a little bit of practical experience.  Setting up a business is subsequently her life dream.  So I thought of handing over my overseas business to her and making her the in- charge of the Dubai branch which I am now going to set up.  Not that it is easy for me to stay away from her, but initially I have to control my carnality for her bright career.

I am confident that she can do a great business and bring our company into an entirely different level.  As she worked for our company earlier, I know she does the work with complete sincerity, perfection and dedication.  With that thought in my mind, I proceeded towards the meeting.

Soon after the meeting was over, my mother called me to fix a date for the reception.  My marriage was only a formal affair just on paper because of circumstances, and so we have soon planned for a lavish reception as per my mother’s request.  I love my mother, and couldn’t deny her at any cost.  I called Tina to fix a comfortable day to hold the reception and asked her to take a call from my mother.

Setting everything ready, I descended towards my house, waiting to catch a glimpse of my beautiful wife.  I sat in my car covered with pleasant thoughts of my Angel.  It’s been a while since we made love.  She was a little desolated after learning the truth of her parent’s demise, but I am sure she will get over it within a short time because I am going to shower her with affection her parents would have ever made for her in her lifetime. She has been my pretty doll since the time I achieved my puberty and finally after a lot of testing and patience God gives me my right back.

I just want to hold her and pleasure her immensely till the dawn of the day and she would scream my name all through the night.  The idea itself made me big over there.

I was smiling like a moron all through my journey, eager to see her.  I knocked on the door with a grin on my face, unable to have any control.  One of my servants opened the door.  I went straight to my bedroom to find my Angel.  ‘Flower” I cooed to her ‘come here” I called her softly unbuttoning my dress shirt.  But there was no reply.  My house is quite big.  She might be in another room.  Maybe she is reading. She is an ardent reader.  Sometimes she doesn’t even check the time while reading if she finds the book interesting.  But I couldn’t find her even there.  My pressure began to rise.  I checked all other rooms including the backyard but she was nowhere found.  One of my house help ran to me hurriedly when I called for my Angel a bit louder.  She spoke to me tensed ‘Sir, madam had an emergency.  Her uncle had to be admitted to the hospital.”

I visibly relaxed at her pleasant disclosure and thanked for the voluntary response.  I called Merlyn immediately, but the phone immediately went to her voice mail.  ‘What the hell” I cursed under my breath. Why wouldn’t she inform me before going out and when it was an emergency?

I jumped into my car and drove to the hospital where her uncle was previously admitted, but found out there was no such patient present.  My pulse began to rise.  I rushed to her uncle’s house, but found it was locked.  I knocked at their neighbors house to find out which hospital her uncle was admitted to.  My anxiousness was at its peak.  After a while the door was opened and I got the answer which I couldn’t assimilate even in my wildest dreams.

They left the country.
