My mother–in–law had always disliked me because we were DINK.
She assumed it was my choice–that I was some career–obsessed woman who refused to give her grandchildren.
The truth is I am the one who desperately wanted a baby.
As an orphan, a child would be my only blood relative in the world. Why wouldn’t I want that? It was Alston who insisted we stay childless.
Shortly after our wedding, we stumbled across a documentary about childbirth.
A
The footage was graphic and intense. After watching it, Alston became obsessed with “protecting” me from pregnancy.
“That looks horrific, Alani. I won’t let you go through that. Women die in childbirth every day. I can’t risk losing you.
“I need you, not kids. If having a child means making you suffer, I’d rather childless.”
Back then, I thought his concern was sweet. I believed he loved me so much he couldn’t bear seeing me in pain, even for something as meaningful as having a child.
Now that I think about he’d been plotting to remove my uterus all along.
Maybe we’d watched that documentary by his design too…
A few days later, Ella and I were both released from the hospital.
Alston had been too focused on Ella to notice I was hospitalized in the next room.
I didn’t mention it. What was the point? I wasn’t planning to stick around anyway.
When Alston finally approached me at home, he announced, “I forgive you.”
I nearly laughed in his face. How dare?
“We’re married. No matter what you did, I’ll always forgive you. But let’s not have a repeat

performance.”
“As a punishment, I’ll sleep in the study for a while. Take the time to reflect on your actions.”
That night, I received another video from Ella:,
She was sprawled on the bed in lingerie, with Alston pounding into her: “Harder…Oh, God, Yes…
make me forget I’m sick… make me forget everything except you…Oh…”
Her moans grew louder and louder as Alston slammed into her faster and faster.
In the heat of the moment, he clutched her tightly and groaned: “Ella, I love you!”
“What did you just say? Say it again! Please!”
A
Alston’s expression darkened immediately. Those words had clearly slipped out in that moment.
Now that his brain had caught up, he didn’t want to be the kind of man who betrayed his marriage.
No matter how Ella begged, he clamped his mouth shut.
“I’m dying, Alston. I’ve got only a week left, and you still won’t say those three words to my face?”
“Don’t push this, Ella.”
“Fine, I’ll just end it now!” She flung the window open and climbed onto the sill. “Nobody loves me
anyway!”
“What are you doing? Ella, get down from there!”
“No… Since you don’t love me, don’t worry about me. I’m done with life.”
She leaned further out.
Alston lunged forward and yanked her back into his arms.
“Of course I love you! I’m losing my mind over you!” he shouted, his composure completely
shattered.
“You think I enjoy being this shit? A cheater? I love Alani! Betraying her makes me sick with myself!”
“But I can’t stop! You drive me insane–have turned me into someone I don’t even know anymore!”

Ella finally looked satisfied. She wrapped her arms around his neck. “So… you love me more than
her?”
Alston’s face hardened. “Don’t push your luck.”
The video ended there. I found myself laughing through my tears.
So you know how disgusting you are, Alston?
You’re a cheater. A liar! What right do you have to play a victim?
I wiped my face and downloaded all the videos Ella had sent, then forwarded everything to Fion
Davies.

“Here’s evidence of his affair. He also had my uterus surgically removed without my knowledge and gave it to his mistress.
“I won’t be present for any proceedings–I never want to see him again. You come to handle
everything.
“Name your price. I don’t just want a divorce–I want you to get my uterus back.”
