Chapter Eleven

Diamond's POV

I couldn't believe I am actually doing this, I am going to see my parents after six years, I really had doubts, would they recognize me no matter if I behave the opposite of my self, I don't imagine my self not recognizing Nadia, just because I haven't seem her for a long time, well I know Ian a better mother that mine but I had doubt that a mother is still a mother.

I dread meeting my father the most, I and my father was very close when I as little than my mom, we did everything, he played with me, read to me and tuck me in when it is night time, he was the best father always making time for me, till a certain point, he was always busy that he rarely does it only a few rare times then it just stopped, it was like the father I knew disappeared and was replace by the man claiming to be my father now. I loved my father the most so his betrayal hurt me the most. I have doubt I would be able to look him in the eyes without asking why, why he stopped being the best father, why he suddenly hated me that he was ready to use me like a pig for money. I thought of this things as I lie in bed also decreasing sleeping because I am scared to sleep and have nightmares, because when the nightmares cine they are always scary, my nightmare had reduced since the Mary six years but after today, I feel really raw, really scared of see the scary face of Liam Crawford that always come anytime I sleep.

Cayden POV

I was sleeping when someone scream woke me from sleep, I became alert, I listen for the sound, then I heard it again, a scary scream, it seems to be coming from, oh my Goodness! Diamonds room, I jumped from the bed and races to her room, did someone break in and attacked her.

I got into her room to find only, Diamond in the room, her legs folded to her chest as she stares at something looking all scared. I looked in the direction she was looking but I was no one there.

"please, don't" was the silent whispers I heard from her, she started screaming all over again. I didn't want to approach her suddenly so as not to set her off. I heard movement at the door, it seems I am not the only one she woke, I didn't turn to look who is it. Instead I called out Diamond's name moving to her lube if vision, as I slowly approach her.

"Diamond, sweetie." She flinches as she started moving back. I stopped.

"Baby, it is me Cayden" I kept approaching her gently, then I got to her then hugged her to my chest while trying to bring her back from her nightmare. She gradually become calm and she hugs me tighter as she sobs into my chest. I looked up to see the entire team looking disturb at what they just witness. But Roza looks more horrified she was frozen just staring straight at Diamond. I really feel for both of them wishing there is something I could do to ease the horror of what they went through, Have seems to notice Roza, because he called the attention of Leia who immediately hugs Roza, I nod to Jace who immediately knew what to do as he leads both Roza and Leia out of the room. Mace gave me the stare that says are they going to be alright, meaning both Roza and Diamond. Mace shrugs. Mace gave me a look that says are we still going to through with the plan, I didn't think at all before nodding no, I am sure it is because Diamond was forced to relive her painful past that she had nightmare. I seems we would have to look for am alternative in bringing down the Moore's and Crawford. I sign.

Diamond's POV

I drifted off to sleep without even realizing, I saw I was in my old room, my old safe haven, I loved staying in my room, because none of my parents hardly come in. So it is where I don't have to act like a proper lady, instead I could be me, listen to music on my headphone, draw my cartoon characters, I could be free and be myself. I was listening to songs on my headphone, while singing along loudly, then Mr. Crawford's face appeared, he had this scary smile on his face, I screamed immediately I saw him, the music stops and I hug my knee to my chest, while sobbing.

Please don't, I silently pleaded but he did not hear or he heard he didn't listen. He started coming closer so I screamed again, then I heard him said

"Diamond, sweetie" I kept crying looking at him approach me.

"Baby, it is me Cayden." He kept coming closer then he did the unexpected, he hugged me, I smelt Cayden on him. What! Cayden what's he doing here, then I remembered he said it is Cayden, then I saw properly that it is Cayden, I relax. I am such a wimp, it is been six good years and I still have nightmares, I kept crying for being weak. I didn't know when I cried myself to sleep in Cayden's arms, it was a dreamless one, Cayden ward off all my demons.

I woke to feel I am intertwined with someone, a masculine leg, a very strong masculine I deduced, this is strange I don't dream of sleeping with stranger men, I really love this dream, since I am not freaking out at the touch of a male, I sign and cuddle more into the stranger's body, hmmm this my dream is really vivid I can smell Cayden's cologne on the stranger, I smile, so it seems Cayden is the object of my Fantasy. Then someone chuckles,

"You are really attracted to me." Cayden stated. What.

I jumped from the bed and end up dragging the bed sheets along with me will staring widely at a smiling Cayden. I peek into the sheet to see me full dress in my night wear but still didn't remove the sheet, because I feel naked even with it.

"I am kind of annoyed that you think I will touch you inappropriately" Cayden said, giving me a fake annoyed face.

I felt my face turn to tomatoes. While Cayden laughs at my expense.
