My Husband Turned Me To His Maid

"Mum are you ok now?" my daughter asked, her sleepy eyes were almost shutting down.

She was a smart girl and I loved it  but  in times like this her being smart made things more difficult for me.

"Yea princess mummy is more than OK, Daddy apologized to mummy for his rude behavior in the morning and mummy has forgiven him. Mummy and Daddy are so happy together." I lied.

I wasn't a very good actress but I was a good liar. Marrying Cletus thought me that you need to think of a lie in less than a second as your life may depend on it.

I tickled her but she didn't laugh. She sat up on the bed and pecked me then she proceeded to give me a Bear hug . "Mummy is an Angel." She said stressing the word Angel, laying emphasis on it. I could feel tears well up in my eyes. I swallowed hard to keep the tears at bay.

"And you are an Angel too. A sweet angel." I teased, trying to sound as light hearted as it was possible. This time she laughed half heartedly. I placed her head on my t.h.i.g.hs and stroked her hair till she fell asleep.

After she fell asleep I covered her with her blanket and watched her while she slept for some minutes, before I left for my room.

I stood in front of my room for over ten minutes afraid to go in. I couldn't still believe how sour my marriage was now that I was afraid to go into my own matrimonial bedroom. I was afraid of my own husband like he was some kind of killer.

What kind of life is this? I desperately wanted to find out. God save your daughter. I prayed silently.

After my short prayer I finally found enough courage to go in. I

took in a deep breath as I opened the door to the room.

I stood at the doorway for a while afraid to go in. After gathering enough strength, I closed the door behind me and walked in.

Cletus was sitting on the bed his back turned to me. He was on only boxers and I could already imagine his hardened c.o.c.k.

I walked in silence to my own side of the bed hoping to get some sleep in peace. I've never before hoped for peace as much as I did now.

He had come home earlier than before and had actually eaten dinner with us,  that was without saying a word to either Ezinne or me.

I was still trying to pull the duvet up so I could go in when Cletus turned around.

"Take off your night gown and come sit on my t.h.i.g.h " he ordered with a straight face. His appearance screamed be careful and obey peacefully.

Tears welled up in my eyes as I took off my nightwear with shaky hands and legs.

Taking baby steps I walked to him silently and sat on his t.h.i.g.hs.

"You look so beautiful," he whispered to me. He didn't wreak of alcohol luckily but still I was afraid and shaking. I played with my fingers scared of looking at him, scared of the monster he had become. He stroked my hair and I felt nauseated.
