She nodded in response and turned on the page of the paper.’’Are you even reading that?’’ I questioned out of curiosity.‘’yes, your…’’ I frowned at her, and she quickly corrected herself. ‘’I mean Axel.’’Axel Hearing her call me by my name brought back memories, and even though I didn’t like comp
‘’Your Highness!’’ she shouted, dropping the paper on the table. She didn’t bother correcting herself this time, and when she stood up, I saw the veins popping on her neck as she began to speak. ‘’I don’t know why you are doing this, but if this will work, you need to know I will work. I can’t live
~Tamara~“I don’t need any other woman since I already have you!” Axel’s words echoed in my head for the hundredth time that week. It had been a week since we met to sign the contract, a week since I’d last seen him, and yet, the only words I could remember were his assurance that there was no one e
“You’re zoning out again,” the doctor said. I forced a chuckle, pretending everything was fine. “Go home and rest,” she instructed. As I was about to respond, my phone rang from my bag.“One second,” I muttered, pulling out my phone.The number was unfamiliar; for a moment, I thought it might be a d
~Tamara~I stood frozen, my eyes locked on the familiar figure before me.Mark. My ex.I couldn't believe it. What was he doing here, and how was he here?" You," he pointed towards me. His eyes narrowed, his jaw clenched in anger, and I could sense the tension radiating from him even though we were
"I don't need your apology," Axel spat, his voice dripping with disdain. "You should be apologizing to Tamara."Mark's eyes flickered at me, and momentarily, I saw a glimmer of remorse. But I knew that he was like that because of Axel and would never apologize if that wasn’t the case.‘’And what are
~Axel~I heaved a deep sigh as I entered my office, struggling to suppress the loudest growl. I was mad, beyond mad, at the sight of another male touching her and discovering that he was an ex-lover – a fact she had deliberately kept from me. Even though I was her first, the idea of another male bei
Not even Tamara, who bore a striking resemblance to her.“she is already here?” Leonara asked, taking her seat on the opposite brown couch. Her frown was evident as she gazed at Tamara.“So, Your Highness, I’ve prepared for her table and chair to be moved in here,” Leonara continued.I nodded in res
I glared at her and then scoffed. ‘’none of this would have happened if you had not gone to that park. My brother is out to kill you, and if you don’t as I have said, then you will die before your brother wakes up,’’ I threatened her to put fear in her mind because I would never let her die as Lyra
~Axel~‘’Are you alright?’’ Tamara asked when she heard me groan for the umpteenth time. I turned to look at her, expecting to see the Frown I always have on my face, but instead, she smiled at me.Seeing her act like that worsened things, adding to my aching forehead. Her body was weaker than I tho
"Whatever you’re thinking is right, Tamara," she said, calm but serious. "I don’t know how it happened, but...'' “No,” I shouted and then collapsed to the ground, blacking out and hoping that when I woke up, I would be freed from this madness.~~~~~~~~~"She is waking up," someone's voice sounded h
~Tamara~A voice. A familiar voice echoed in my ears, growing louder as if the speaker was in a heated conversation with someone else. Strangely, the voice sounded exactly like mine, but I wasn’t speaking. At first, I thought I was dreaming until I heard it again, louder this time, and whoever was
Emma smiled and ran a finger along the edge of the dagger. "Don’t worry about that. The dagger won’t hurt her. It’s just going to make a little slit on her palm, and if anything goes wrong, I’ll heal her. Voila, no damage caused."I frowned at how playfully she was acting. Who would have thought the
~Axel~"Your Highness, there is no way I am allowing that!" She took a step forward. "There’s no way in hell you'll risk your life!"Emma sighed and sat down on the bed. "This is going to be a long one," she yawned.I frowned at her, and she shrugged her shoulders. "You joke about everything."She s
Emma's eyes snapped open and met mine. "Her mind is corrupted," she said, wiping her forehead. "She's caught up in a dream, reliving the same nightmare repeatedly. She's being killed, Axel, and she can’t wake up."I felt a chill run down my spine as I looked at Tamara. The trembling had stopped, but
~Axel~“Emma, thank you for coming,” I heaved a sigh of relief as Emma, my witch friend, walked into my lavish living room. She frowned when our eyes met and then rolled her eyes. I knew she was mad since I had contacted her late at night. “Ax,” she muttered, heading towards me. When she reached m
As soon as I entered the elevator and it started going up, the tension suddenly changed, and I could feel her piercing eyes on the back of my head. Curious to see what it was about, I turned and met with her glaring eyes. ‘’I guess you are happy now that Mark has been removed from his job and not al
