Married My Ex's Uncle In My Second Time Chapter 0119
AlaricI watched Anna disappear up the stairs with Lisa hanging onto her like a second skin. Every instinct I had told me to follow them—yank Lisa off her and remind her what happens when people try to corner what's mine. But Anna had told me not to follow. She had that look in her eye—the one that said, trust me.So, I waited.And if there’s one thing I absolutely loathe, it’s waiting when I don’t know what’s happening to her.The minutes crawled by. First one. Then two. Then three. Somewhere around minute four, a woman in a red dress slinked over and gave me a smile I think she thought was seductive. I didn’t even look at her—just fixed her with my best “you’re wasting your time” glare until she shrank away like a scolded cat.Another tried a few minutes later. I didn’t even let her speak. Just raised an eyebrow. She muttered something about “rude men” and scampered off like the first.By minute eight, I was scaring people off with nothing but my aura. I was pretty sure someone from

I keep my distance, footsteps silent as I trail them down the hall. The girl walks quickly, glancing over her shoulder once to make sure Alaric’s following. He is—reluctantly, but still too polite or curious to brush her off entirely. Typical.They stop at a door. She gestures toward it with exaggerated sweetness, like she’s handing him a gift instead of a trap.Then she drops a little package by the door after he enters and rushes off like she’s being chased by her own conscience. Please.I wait a beat, then walk up, crouching by the bag.Inside: a sleek black robe. A delicate black lace mask.Oh.So this is the final act.I hear Alaric’s voice faintly from the room. “Anna? Are you in here?”Right. Lisa’s brilliant plan. While she thought I’d be in some room screaming for help, she’d slip in here masked like some seductive phantom, probably pretending to be me, and throw herself at Alaric.Wow. She really thought that was going to work?For a second, I’m too stunned by the sheer auda

“Strip,” he says, leaning back on the bed, his elbows propped behind him, watching me with that intense gaze that always makes my knees a little weak.“Alright,” I whisper, my voice a little shaky. I'm nervous—but I signed up for this. And I’m going to see it through.Taking a slow breath, I let my fingers trail up my back to unclasp my bra. As sexily as I can manage, I slide it off and bunch it in my hand before tossing it at him. He catches it without blinking, his eyes never leaving mine.“Everything,” he says, his voice thick with desire.My eyes flick down to the undeniable bulge in his trousers. The sight gives me a flicker of confidence. I hook my thumbs into the waistband of my panties and slide them down, stepping out of them slowly. Then, with a mischievous smirk I didn’t know I had in me, I throw those at him too.This time, he catches them and brings them to his face, breathing in deeply like I’m something rare and intoxicating. The raw hunger in his eyes makes my breath h

A deep, suffocating void. That is all there is.No pain, no warmth, no cold—just emptiness, stretching endlessly. I have no body, no voice, only the lingering sensation of despair, of regret.Then, suddenly, there is something else. A pull, sharp and urgent, dragging me from that formless abyss. And then—A gasp tears from my throat as I jolt upright.Had I truly died? The last thing I remember is Lisa’s voice, cruel and mocking, her eyes gleaming with triumph as I lay there, bleeding out.My hands scramble against soft sheets, my breathing ragged as my wide eyes dart around the dimly lit room. I know this room; it's my room from when I was still home."Maybe I'm in heaven." The thought fills me with equal parts sadness and relief. At least now I can see my family. I try to leave the bed, and my feet tangle in the sheets, making me fall on my face."Oww." Wait, I pause. People can't feel pain in heaven, right?I stand and stare at the familiar sight—the desk covered in neatly stacked b

After a nice breakfast, I make some excuse to stay home from school; I need time to process everything.Sitting on my bed, the weight of the situation begins to settle in. How do I fix this? How do I save my family from the ruin I know is coming? I feel a familiar tension rise in my chest as I replay the moments that led to our downfall. I can remember everything—every mistake, every decision—so I can change the future before it’s too late.Then, like a cruel whisper from the past, Lisa’s voice echoes in my mind.“The reason your father’s company collapsed, the reason your entire family is dead, the reason Josh betrayed you. Me.”Her words had hit me like a physical blow, knocking the breath from my chest. I remembered how I had whispered, “What?” my mind racing, trying to comprehend, trying to deny.She had stood then, pacing slowly, her voice cold and detached as she continued. “Don’t you remember? The company had gone bankrupt, and no bank would give him a loan, fearing he wouldn't

I would’ve cancelled. God knows I wanted to. But the moment I saw the date, I knew I couldn’t.Today was the beginning of everything—the day my life began to unravel thread by thread, all while I smiled and played dress-up with the person holding the scissors.The mall is just as I remember—too bright, too loud, too full of people pretending their lives are whole. The polished floors gleam under fluorescent lights, reflecting nothing but illusions and lies.My steps slow the moment I pass through the glass doors. The cool, manufactured air rushes over me, stealing my breath like a slap to the face. I blink, trying to focus on the present, but it’s no use.This is where it all started.My stomach knots. I swallow it down.I remember the way I’d felt—hopeful, excited, stupid. I’d gotten her text—Let’s shop, babe! Girls’ day! I miss you—and my heart had swelled like an idiot’s.I showed up thinking it would be fun.We’d laughed through the aisles like nothing in the world could touch us.

Just like the last time, Lisa’s voice cut through the air casually. “Wanna head out? I’m kinda over it.”I smiled, heart pounding—not with fear, but anticipation. “Sure.”We strolled toward the mall’s entrance, sunlight spilling in from the large glass doors. And then—just as I remembered—the sharp, blaring wail of the security alarm pierced through the air. Heads turned. Conversations halted.I feigned surprise, furrowing my brows in confusion and concern, glancing around as if the sound couldn’t possibly have anything to do with me. But of course, it had everything to do with me. Or at least, it was supposed to.“Ma’am,” one of the security guards said as he stepped in front of us, palm up, voice firm, “I’m going to need to search your bag.”My eyes widened in careful measure.Maybe it was the way we were dressed. I’d thrown on something simple—a black tee and old jeans, my hair pulled into a lazy ponytail. Lisa, on the other hand, looked like she belonged in the pages of a glossy ma

After the whole fiasco at the mall, Lisa’s face shifted—her expression going from pale to horrified as the realization of what had almost happened sank in. She left with a quiet, "See you later," . I couldn't help myself, I laughed softly under my breath, the sound almost bitter. It felt like a small victory, a taste of control over something that had always seemed so out of reach. But even as I stood there, watching her retreating figure, I knew it was just a blip. A tiny victory in the grand scheme of things. It meant nothing compared to what I had to do next.I left the mall with a sense of satisfaction, but it quickly faded when I walked into the house. The familiar, comforting scent of dinner being prepared greeted me as I stepped inside. My family had already set the table, and I could hear my mother bustling around in the kitchen. The soft clink of plates and silverware, the hum of quiet conversations—everything felt normal. Everything felt safe.As I sit at the dining table, su

The moment we stepped inside, it hit me: Lisa had really gone all out trying to impress...well, herself, mostly.The entire venue looked like someone had said, "Give me rich, but make it desperate."There were gold and silver balloons tied everywhere, champagne towers dangerously wobbling in every corner, and way too many fake smiles plastered across perfectly contoured faces.I took one look at the crowd—everyone dressed to the nines but with that bored, "please let something dramatic happen" gleam in their eyes—and whispered to Alaric, "Welcome to the Hunger Games, rich kid edition."He chuckled under his breath and tightened his hand around mine, like he already knew he'd need to keep a firm grip to survive the night.We barely had a chance to breathe before the main event herself appeared at the top of the stairs:Lisa.Wearing what could only be described as a very sparkly piece of dental floss masquerading as a dress.I blinked. Twice. I mean, I knew Lisa loved attention, but th

That FridayFinally. I leaned back in my chair, grinning as I saved the final version of my proposal. Done. All I had to do now was wait for Monday.A knock sounded on the door. I didn’t even need to look up. Relentless, I thought, already knowing exactly who it was. "Come in," I called, trying to keep the tiredness out of my voice.Sure enough, Lisa peeked her head in, her face stretched into that sweet smile she’d been wearing like a mask all week. "Just wanted to remind you about my party tonight," she said, her voice way too cheerful to be real. "And you’re bringing Alaric, right?"I caught the way she almost vibrated with excitement just saying his name. Couldn’t even hide it.For a tiny second, I wondered if agreeing to go was a bad idea. But then again, knowing Lisa, something was definitely brewing, and if I stayed away, I'd just be leaving my back exposed. Better to walk in with my eyes wide open."Yeah," I said casually. "We’ll be there."The way her smile widened made it ob

Anna"You agreed to go?" Alaric asked, shooting me a look so sharp it could probably slice through steel."Well… yes," I replied a bit sheepishly, fiddling with the hem of my shirt.His jaw tightened like he was holding back a lecture, and I scrambled to explain before he could unleash the Protective Boyfriend Fury of Doom. "I mean, come on, aren’t you even a little curious? Lisa inviting me to her birthday party? After everything? And specifically asking that I bring you?" I leaned closer, dropping my voice dramatically."I think our dear Lisa might be nursing a tiny, tiny crush."Alaric gave me a flat look. "A tiny crush?" he repeated, deadpan."I saw her face when I kissed you in the parking lot. She looked like she’d just watched her favorite soap opera character die." I snorted in response. "Don’t you want to see what kind of chaos she’s planning? I mean, she’s so bad at subtlety, it’s basically free entertainment at this point."Alaric sighed deeply, like a man resigning himself

3rd person povLisa couldn’t move for a few seconds, frozen in place as she watched the sleek black car disappear down the road. Her heart pounded wildly in her chest, a mix of disbelief and rage bubbling beneath the surface.It was him. It had to be him; she couldn't have mistaken him for someone else.The man she had seen at the airport weeks ago—the one whose mere presence had left her breathless.Up close, he was even more devastatingly handsome.Sharp jawline, dark, intense eyes, the easy, commanding way he carried himself—he was everything she remembered and more.But what was he doing with Anna?Of all the people, it had to be her—the girl who was supposed to be pathetic, heartbroken, and alone.It wasn’t fair. It wasn’t right.Lisa clenched her fists, nails digging sharply into her palms. At first, she thought she could accept it if he were with someone else, someone worthy of him. But the longer she stared at the empty parking lot, the more she realized—no. Not even if he wer

The whole Lisa debacle was firmly behind me by the end of the day.I had better things to focus on.Way better things.I practically bounced through the halls as I clocked out, a rare, genuine smile tugging at my lips.Tonight, after what felt like forever, I was going to see Alaric again.He had been traveling for work, gone longer than either of us liked, and though we had stayed in touch through daily video calls, it just wasn't the same.Seeing him on a screen couldn’t compare to being wrapped up in him, breathing the same air, feeling his arms around me.I stepped outside into the soft evening light, scanning the parking lot—and there he was.Leaning casually against his sleek black car, arms crossed, dark hair slightly messy from the breeze, looking at me like I was the only thing in his world.I didn’t even think.I just ran.He caught me easily, laughing as I threw myself into his arms and kissed him full on the mouth.A long, hard kiss that said everything I hadn’t been able

It had been a week since that first visit, and I already had a detailed draft of my proposal saved in a crisp folder on my laptop.I feel so proud of myself.In just a few days, I had gone back to The Yellow Tulip multiple times, at different hours, on different days, sometimes alone or sometimes dragging Ciara or even Ellie along.I wanted a full, unbiased picture of the place to be able to make my decision.I sat downstairs with the general crowd, tucked myself away upstairs in the private rooms, even loitered by the bar for a bit just to get a sense of the flow.And the pattern was clear to me.The restaurant's concept was still genius: a gorgeous general dining area for casual customers and beautifully intimate private rooms for people craving exclusivity. Few places managed to balance both worlds without feeling either too snobby or too generic.The Yellow Tulip had once done it flawlessly.But now? Everything else needed work.The staff downstairs were undertrained and unmotivat
