Chapter: Twisted Obsession "Lana, please calm down," I begged, growing tired of her restless pacing and nail-biting.She remained silent, continuing to walk back and forth across the room, consumed by her anxiety. I couldn't bear it any longer."Lana! Just stop!" I exploded, my frustration boiling over. Enough was enough. Big sis Reina had already made her feelings clear. How could Lana not understand?"She knows, Amber! I only wanted to protect her and keep her close to me," Lana finally confessed, her voice trembling. I grabbed her by the shoulders, shaking her violently, desperate for her to snap out of it."Listen, Lana. Big sis Reina doesn't want you as a lover. She sees you as a sister and she needs a sister who will be there for her whenever she needs support. You can fulfill that role, but being her romantic partner just isn't realistic," I explained firmly."But why can't I be both, Amber? After waiting all these years, why does she choose Axel and ignore my love? It's not fair!" Lana protested bitterl

Chapter: Twisted DynamicsMy heart sank as I pondered how to explain this to Axel. What on earth could I say to cover up this stab wound?“Ashlyn!”I took a deep breath, trying to collect my thoughts. "Hold your horses, Axel, and yes, this is indeed a stab injury."His eyes widened in shock. "How did this happen?"Deciding it was best to be honest, at least to some extent, I began to explain. "It was in Country X. Father had Amber and Kyle to keep himself entertained. I had to rescue them before anything catastrophic occurred."He leaned in, intrigued. "By 'catastrophic,' do you mean...?""Before he killed them or...well, had them mutilated. Father has a variety of sick hobbies, and his favorite pastime is inflicting pain on his own children.""Please, go on," Axel urged, a mix of concern and curiosity evident in his voice.I winced in pain as Axel continued to clean my wound, causing him to ease up and show a tinge of gentleness. "After retrieving Amber and Kyle, father insisted on inviting us to dinner. And

Chapter: Funny I could feel the rumble in Axel's chest, a deep and hearty chuckle that reverberated through his body. His laughter was infectious, and I couldn't help but be drawn into the amusing scene that was unfolding right in front of me."Are you okay, Ashlyn?" Axel's concerned voice broke through his laughter, and I couldn't help but be amazed at his acting skills. If only he had pursued a career in entertainment, he would have been a star."What in the world are you doing, Axel? Put that woman down right now," Lilith demanded, her frustration evident in her voice."Shut the fuck up, Lilith. And what are you doing here anyway? Did I invite you over?" Axel retorted, his tone sharp and dismissive."N... no, but we had plans for today. We made the reservation over a month ago," She stammered, feeling a sense of disappointment welling up inside her and displaying itself all over her face."I remember canceling that. Didn't the restaurant inform you? I even asked Liam to let you know that I wouldn

Chapter: Assassination Attempt "I pay him more than enough for all the stress he goes through," Axel stated with a sigh and a feeling of sympathy rose in my chest.Axel's secretary , Liam, looked worn down and exhausted as he tirelessly worked to handle the burdens of his job. "Still, poor Liam," I thought to myself, feeling a pang of guilt.Unable to withstand the tension any longer, Axel decided to confront the situation head-on. "Are we going to keep dancing around the main question here, or are you finally going to give me the answer?" he asked, his voice filled with impatience.I smirked mischievously, apparently finding his frustration amusing. "Dancing seems fun. How about we waltz?" I jokingly replied.He scowled at my attempt to lighten the mood. "Not funny, Ashlyn . What. The. Fuck. Happened?" He demanded, my voice laced with anger.I held up my hand, gesturing for him to calm down. "No need to emphasize every word, Axel. I'll tell you, alright? But first, could you get me my phone? I should be getting a c

Chapter: Strange Feelings"Pfft. You silly little thing," I scoffed, unable to hide my amusement. "I could never hate you, man. You're my brother and favorite person right after Reina."The room was heavy with tension as everyone turned to look at me. "Ok, ok, ok! No one is going all soft and emotional here," I proclaimed, trying to diffuse the seriousness. "I can't stand those. Lana? Do you have something to say to these two?"Lana hesitated for a moment before she mustered up the courage to speak. "I--I'm so sorry for jumping to conclusions without asking you what was going on first, Amber," she admitted, her voice filled with remorse. "On the other hand, I'm not sorry for hitting you, Kyle. You should have controlled yourself more.""Lana!" Reina interjected, her face filled with anger. "You broke his teeth and gave him two black eyes. He deserves that apology.""Fine!" Lana responded, her irritation evident in her voice. "Sheesh, Reina. I don't know why you're standing with him in this case, but I guess I'l

Chapter: Siblings Dark Past (2)Reina's icy demeanor held the room captive, transfixed by her growing aura of intensity. Everyone couldn't help but be drawn to her. "Bi–big sis?" "Rei? I understand you're angry, but please, gather yourself... Your presence is frightening everyone here." "Kyle, get away from Amber this instant, and Amber, come sit next to me." Amber hesitated, hardly recognizing the person before her as her sister. "Amber!" "O-okay." "Good. Now, Kyle, can you explain exactly what happened?" Kyle nervously glanced at the women in the room until he was interrupted by a stranger's voice. "Kyle beat Amber mercilessly and raped her. All under the orders of Maximus Don." Shocked, everyone turned to face the stranger, her words hanging in the air. "And who might you be to accuse my brother of such a horrendous act?" "Oh, excuse me, my name is Donna, ma'am." "Ah, so you're Kyle's ex, I presume?" "Yes, and I sincerely apologize for everything you all went through. It was entirely my fault." "Is

Chapter: Chapter 6As Alexander's words hung in the air, there was this subtle tension between Nathan and him. It was clear that Nathan's plan had been foiled, at least for the time being. I turned to leave, but not before catching a glimpse of a familiar face across the room - Alicia. When did she get here, "I guess she's always hovering around you" I said and they both shifted eyes to her.Alicia's gaze lingered on me for a moment before she regained her composure. She must have overheard us.A sly smile spread across her face, this bitch getting some funny ideas.She felt threatened, and I could sense her mind racing with ways to take me down. After the staring competition she walked towards us, surprisingly Nathan walked to her grabbed her wrist and took her out."Lovers quarrel" Alexander said and chuckledThe entertainment industry, here I come.

Chapter: Chapter 5As I walked out from the bathroom back to the event, there he was - the last person I expected to see was standing before me, the man I once loved.Noticing me, he turned in my direction. Nathan was filled with rage mixed with regret; his eyes could tell, and trust me, I wasn't going to be swayed by mere looks. His gaze was intense, and for a moment, he seemed lost. His usual confident demeanor was replaced with uncertainty, but he managed to find his words. "Paula, please, you have to hear me out," he said. "I'm sorry for whatever you had to go through." He said it with so much sincerity that one would fall for, but obviously not me. At this point, I was getting irritated. Could this day get any worse? And did he really think a simple apology would fix everything? His words made me angrier. "You've got to be kidding me, Nathan," I said. "You're sorry? Really?" I repeated, my voice firm. "Just stay away from me, Nathan, and I won't have Alicia barking at me again. You should put a le

Chapter: Chapter 4“Hey, babe.” He came in and studied my reflection in the mirror in open admiration. “You look very beautiful in that dress. So very elegant and regal.”I studied myself, blushing at his compliment. “Thank you, baby.”“I bet everyone’s eyes will be on you tonight but trust me, I’m ready to pluck off those wandering eyes.” He kissed my forehead.I giggled like a love-struck teenager, putting my hands around his neck as his went around my waist. I considered myself lucky to have him in my life. These past five years had been full of joy and happiness. I had a daughter I loved and a man who adored us both.Alex was nothing like Nathan. He was so attentive, so caring, so loving. He was everything a woman wished for and I’d grown to love him, even more than I’d always loved Nathan.“How’s the venue search going?” He asked.“Oh, the wedding planner said she’ll get back to me tomorrow. The florist said she’s getting the floral arrangements ready and will begin as soon as I send her the venu

Chapter: Chapter 3“Is my father in?” I questioned Mr. Russell, my father’s butler. The man himself was surprised to see me. “Yes, he is. Come in.”I stepped into the foyer and almost bawled at the sight of every familiar feeling that wrapped me. Taking a deep breath, I continued my way to his study/private office. He was certain to be there by this time of the day.Gripped by apprehension, I wiped sweat from my palm on my wrinkled skirt and knocked on the door of his study.“Yeah? Who’s that?” His deep voice called.I blew nervous breath and quietly cleared my throat. “I-it’s me, Paula.” I didn’t hear his voice again.Scared to enter and feeling ashamed as well, I wrung my hands. “D-dad, please let me in.”I heard nothing. “I-I’m sorry, pl…” The door opened before I could finish my apology. I met eye to eye with the man who had birthed me. Emotions crippled me, I couldn’t help the tears that fell. “I’m sorry, dad. Y-you were right. I-I should have listened to you.”Dad watched me, not saying a wo

I looked through the window and tried enough, there was the gigantic office building of Nathan. I paid the cab driver and alighted.Pulling my sweatshirt around me tighter, I walked towards the building with a heavy heart and slow, hopeless steps.I was broken but I didn’t want to give up. Regardless, I still loved Nathan and wanted him back. He had refused picking my calls, so I had to come to the office.This was the only way to see him.To my shock,this Alicia was with him in his office when I entered.His face scrunched into an angry scowl. “What are you doing here?”“What is she doing here, Nathan?” I wasn’t happy seeing that lady in here with him.“She has every right to be here but you don’t.” He retorted.“I am your wife, Nathan. Why are doing this to me? To us?” The tears that had been falling ever since that day he had me thrown out didn’t

Chapter: Chapter 1“Here’s the result, ma’am.” The doctor I’d come to see handed me a sheet of paper.I held my breath, reading through the result. My smile widened and tears filled my eyes as soon as I spotted the word ‘positive’.I was pregnant. I had used three different pregnancy test strips and all had come out positive but I wanted to be sure, hence, my reason for visiting my family doctor. “I’m pregnant.” I said with tears finally falling down my face. “Yes, congratulations.” The doctor smiled.Nathan would be so happy. We had been trying to get pregnant for a while now. Two years to be exact and now that it had finally happened, I could not wait to share the news with him.I rushed out of the doctor’s office, got into my car and headed straight for home. I checked the time. It was just past three pm.He usually closed from the office and got home around six or seven. I decided to make a special dinner for both of us. Humming happily, the maids stared at me in surprise and curiosity but I p
