Wrath Of His Heart

Chapter 29 Rose And Thorns

Cassandra's POV

I reach home at 11:30 pm, even though I left the party around 10 pm there was a traffic jam as there was an accident on the road. After I reached home I opened the door with the key I had and entered the living room, only to see the entire house was dark as though not even a single soul existed.

I find the switch and on the lights to only come face to face with Vincent. "Ohh my god Vincent you scared the shit out of me, you didn't sleep yet?" I asked since he was very calm, I guess he came down when he heard the car come into the driveway. "Could not sleep when people stab in the back" he says looking into my eyes.

I started moving towards the dining hall to have some water and he was following closely while I spoke "Philosophical I see? What's the matter, Nolan showed his true colours or Hazel propose to you? Or rather she is pregnant with the bastards child?"

"None, I was actually stabbed by a person too close to me" He said calmly holding my waist.

"Who Aiden? But what could he possibly do that you are using such heavy words?" I continued to joke. "No not Aiden," he says and pulls me to his chest such that my back is in complete contact with his front body "It's you, you cheated on me, you lied to me." Now my heart was beating like crazy thinking he got to know the truth.

"I.. you mean me..ee wha...wha" I started to shutter and he made me stop by placing his finger on my lips and bringing his face closer to my ears and said, "Tell me yourself Cassandra because I know the truth and I know you lied to me also you broke your promise."

I drop the water glass that was in my hand unknowingly when he said those words. "What..at do you mean?" I was about to pick the pieces up but he turns me around that our face was merely an inch apart and he said "I know Cassandra, you were at Cole's marriage."

Shit how do I control this mess, so I composed myself and said "What nonsense Vincent you asked me not to go and I didn't go, I was with Avery somewhere else."

"Ohh I have to believe that Avery didn't attend the wedding but was with you, also Cassandra do you take me to a fool that I believe you went somewhere else wearing this dress" god I am so dead.

"Yeah, Vincent I went to his wedding so what?" I finally confess seeing there is no way out.

"So what, are you fuckingly kidding me? I asked you to not go, didn't I? Don't you have any respect for my words?"

"Why will I even listen to you? You are just my husband who threw me out of your life like a toilet paper, 5 years ago when you didn't want me, now what right do you have?"

"That day I was nothing to you but today I am your husband, I have every right to know about your whereabouts you idiot" he yells at me.

I break free from him and make some space between us and I raise my voice "So does that change anything because I don't feel anything changing between us, we just stay under the same roof, other than that there's nothing, absolutely nothing so you better stop telling me what to do and not."

"It fuckingly does not mean anything to me either but you will only spoil my name by behaving like a slut you are" he yells at me so badly that my heart breaks, before I could absorb what he told I move back to compose myself to only place my leg on the broken glass pieces. I steady myself to show I am not weak.

"What the fuck do you mean? It was not you who pulled me up when I was at the lowest point of my life, it was them, you on the other hand just let me drown in my misery. Why do you act like that, first you made Ryan hate me and now you were planning to do the same with Cole, next what Avery? You want me to ditch my previous life since you are my husband now" I shout and tears were running down my cheeks now.
