Forced Marriage: Escaping Her Monster

Chapter 154 - No Pics, Please...

Jeremy had very little hope, but he decided to wait. Waiting for her comes easy for him.

He waited for some time and her door was still open. And as he watched, she came out of her room, still with her pout on.

Is she still feeling bad?

"Tell me more stories from your childhood, Jerlina!" he tried to use his normal voice, but his excitement to see her walking towards him got revealed by his excited voice.

"Really?" he saw her eyes widening with relief.

"Yes, tell me more about your grandpa... he seems like an interesting guy," he said pointing at his bed.

"He is! Geez, I have a lot to tell about him...Where shall I start..?"

With no care in the world, she walked to his bed and he kicked out the pest Earl who tried to sneak in. He made sure to lock his door.

No one is permitted inside tonight!

Jerlina woke up in the morning feeling a little dampness on her forehead. She opened her eyes groggily and met eyes with a smiling Jeremy.

Her neck felt like it was resting on a block of wood and she realized she is actually snuggling with this guy. And that hard feeling on my abdomen...

No way!

"Good morning, Jerlina..." he said with a smile.

"Good morning..."

It took her some time to realize that she had slept in his bed.

Last night, she just wanted to make sure he is in a good mood before he slept. By asking about his name, she had invoked his past painful memories and when he asked to tell him about her grandfather, she agreed.

She knew a lot of fun stories involving her grandfather. She knew it would make his mood better.

She wanted to leave once his mood got better, but they talked one thing and another, and she didn't even realize how she fell asleep.

It probably is because of the pain meds.

"I am sorry... I can't believe I slept on your bed... Were you troubled?" She said struggling to get out of his snuggle, but he held her closer.

"I am troubled..." he moved his waist and she felt that "monster" down there was getting harder. Her hand was on his chest and his heart was pounding.

"Can you feel?"

Yeah, I can perfectly feel the anaconda down there... And I am scared to think deeply about it...

Jerlina's past hurtful memories with that anaconda down there surfaced. And she didn't want to deal with "that thing" now. She has to prepare her heart a lot before dealing with that thing.

"I take no responsibility for that! Morning wood is a natural reaction? of your body telling you that your phallus is normal..." She went scientific and explained.

Jeremy ended up laughing and rolled over letting her go. He expected her to go red blushing or get angry at him for harassing her, but she...

"You never fail to surprise me, Honeybuns..."

"Oh yeah?" Jerlina got up with a smile. "How else should I react for a normal body reaction?"

She asked standing up. She still decided to play it cool although her heart raced.

He was lying on his back and she could see the "tent" down there.

"Are you not curious to see how it looks like?" he asked sitting up and pretended to unzip. "I don't mind showing it to you..."

"Nope, not really. No," Jerlina walked towards the room covering her eyes. "Please don't flash me... And please don't send any d*ck pics either! I don't want to throw up," she unlocked the door and rushed out.

"Why not? It's just a body part, isn't it?"

She heard him shout.

"What a d*ck!" she chuckled locking her door. "And I seem to not mind whatever he does...Hmm..."

-----

She was given rest that day and she decided to visit Peyton. She went to the convenience store she used to work part-time at and the lady who owned the shop was happy to see her there.

She apologized for not attending the wedding, but she said she was glad to see the procession in the carriage.

Speaking to her further, she asked her to not mind her niece if she ever crosses paths with her.

"Ashley is a good girl, but she is loyal to the wrong people... I am talking to her about it and don't mind her words much in case she offends you..."

The lady was very apologetic and Jerlina comforted her and left her.

"She's Foxy's aunt," Charlie explained, and only then Jerlina understood everything. "She raised her and Foxy loves her aunt very much. She'll come around."

"Okay," Jerlina nodded.

Foxy has never hurt her directly, but by the way some people were looking at her in the town, she realized that rumors about her are already spreading.

"Emma works fast, huh..." she said and Charlie looked at her.

"She met with Foxy and Tara immediately after leaving the house."

"Oh?" Jerlina shrugged. She expected this and she didn't mind it much.

"Where are you going next?" Charlie asked as she got to her Porche.

"The clinic," she answered and he nodded.

They still don't travel in the same car but Charlie follows her everywhere. He is like her personal bodyguard and Jerlina didn't mind his presence.

Reaching at the clinic, she was welcomed with a hug from Daisy. Daisy was looking after a little girl who was about ten.

"Poor girl always gets sick. They are now convinced she might have something serious," Daisy gossiped as usual.

"And you... people are saying that you're jealous and b*tchy and don't even let Jeremy spend time with his sister..." Daisy elaborated on the gossips from around the town.

Jerlina let out a deep breath. "Nothing about my miscarriage?" she whispered and Daisy shook her head.

"Not yet."

Jerlina didn't know if she should be relieved or worried. But she felt like she can handle this. The last time she thought about it, she almost had a panic attack, but now she was not that scared.

She felt strong.

I have people who care for me around me. I can handle this!

As they were talking, a tall, skinny man walked towards them. He had tattoos all over him and even on his face. His teeth were yellowed and he was wearing a wife-beater shirt. His jeans were hanging very low and she could see his underwear. Plus, he stank.

As he approached, his hands reached to his waist.

"Yo, you're TJ's lady, right?" he pointed at Jerlina. "White hair, big ring... You are Luna, right?"

He started to rush towards her and Daisy pushed Jerlina to the back. "Run!"

Jerlina was stunned for a moment but she ran in the opposite direction.

"Yo, stop!" the man shouted and Jerlina heard a scuffle as Charlie lunged at that man who was having his hand reaching his waist.

Jerlina started to run.
