Frier’s POV

“…what is it?”

How on earth do I respond to such? The thing with Damien is rather complex and simple at the same time. He’s helping me get revenge and even though he says it’s okay for me to use him, I know he likes me so I’m aware of what he wants in return but sadly I can’t give it to him.

Was that what I’m supposed to say to her?!

“He’s a friend from college”

I honestly don’t know why I bother with this excuse. Nicklaus didn’t buy it and from the look on her face, I’m guessing she didn’t buy it either.

“That’s disappointing, Damien’s description of you was much more enthusiastic”

My lips paused…did he tell her I was his first love?

“Anyhow you look at it your response was shallow. Not all college friends live together, in fact, it’s rather rare, don’t you agree miss Frieren?”

I felt a headache coming on, she was leading me somewhere. Was it necessary to drag it out like this?

“I understand what you mean, Your Highness. It’s true my relationship with your brother

    “Careful” Damien’s voice echoed in the study as his hands swiftly moved to catch Frier’s falling head. The sudden impact didn't wake her instead she snuggled against his palm and he had no choice but to keep the posture. Truth be told he wasn't complaining. Watching her sleep in his arms was a reality he'd want to dwell longer in but time was ticking and he had to leave but not before carefully carrying her bridal style to her room and gently placing her on the bed. With Aiden’s sleeping figure beside her bed, the scene looked picture-perfect. The mother and son duo was taking a long nap but that wasn't what was going through Damien’s head. He only thought of how he could keep on protecting them. They have no link so it’s going to be harder to keep them by his side in the future. After a prolonged moment of watching them, he left and slowly closed the door.Time passed and it was nightfall, he knocked and gently pushed open the door only to reveal the same scene he left behin

    Bella’s POV‘What’s going to happen next for me and Klaus?’Am I crazy to think that now? After spending a night with him? Probably…but I can't help but wonder. “You should go home, Bella” Emily’s voice broke my reverie and I immediately spread a smile across my cheeks.“You can’t get rid of me that easily, I'm not going anywhere. I'll be with you until you get discharged…”“That’s not what I mean-”“I know what you’re going to say” I cut her off. “Amiee is fine, I call her every day. She can take care of herself for the time being so I'm stuck with you”. I felt smug about my piece but her next words completely threw my pride out the window and replaced it with shame.“You stink girl, go home and wash up”“Oh…that’s what you meant” I breathed and took a sniff of myself. “Ewww…fine I’ll go but I’ll be back before you can even blink”“Please take your time” she teased with an eye roll and I clicked my tongue in defiance.“What will I do with you? You’re so cute when you act ungr

    Frier’s POV“Help me…I don't want to die, what I'm saying is for your own good, leave the Harrington’s alone!”“But mother…”I tried to speak but I was more concerned about how shaky my voice turned out. I placed my hands on my throat and when I lifted them before my eyes, they were covered in blood but the blood wasn’t mine!Where was I?…This looked like the villa that caught on fire. All that was left were fragments of the building and ashes smeared all over.“Are you there mother?” I called out but there was no response. My words echoed back but instead of fading away it got louder. I could hear my voice from all parts of the remains. It was taunting me. The voice that mirrored mine kept on getting louder and sharper. It felt like it was closing in on me and I had no choice but to cover my ears in panic.“Stop! Stop it!” I kept shouting but my words were swallowed by the continuous echoing. I broke down in tears, the warm liquid kept streaming down. I was wailing and slowly d

    Bella’s POVI feel like a fool for anticipating 7pm but I don’t care. I kept stealing glances at my watch, hoping it’ll clock in at seven but time was playing tricks with me. I was bold enough to delude myself that I was this edgy because I was partially jobless. Emily has been discharged and I was currently at her apartment with her. There wasn't much I was needed for, she was back to normal but I chose to stick around. Amiee already told me not to come home tonight anyway.“I’ll cook you something, your hands shouldn't touch water”“Are you going to bathe me too?”There was an awkward silence before I suddenly raised my voice. “Of course I will!”“You’re a pervert! Pfft!”She exploded in laughter and I joined in harmony. Eventually, she cooked with me, it was fun and cheerful with music playing from the speakers. Surprisingly Emily and I shared similar choices of songs. Our taste was peculiar but it was even more bizarre because we both had a hidden reason for liking the songs s

    Arya’s POVI’m yet to find out who was responsible for taking me and Damien’s photo, there wasn’t any reporter in sight so the person must be an informant to social outlets and of course, Damien was a huge source of inspiration to those gossip suckers but what’s even worse is Nicklaus standing here with me. “What’re you doing here?” I asked while secretly clenching the results the nurse had given me. “Shouldn’t I be here when my wife regains her identity?” I scoffed at his words. So openly shameless, then again that was Nicklaus’s style, I’ve passed the stage of being baffled by his words, and now I’m just trying to find his limits but unfortunately, this man had none!“Come home with me” There were no words to describe my expression and it was this scene that Damien walked in on. He must’ve heard Nicklaus outrageous offer. Damien’s presence shadowed me but he wasn’t as tall as Nicklaus. That man was simply a seven-foot statue laced in black embroidery. “You should really con

    Bella's POVI was inclined to ask Klaus why he called to cancel and then miraculously showed up at my doorstep but I didn’t so I figured he was trying to surprise me but why?Nonetheless I stayed silent on the ride until he asked.“Any place in mind you wanna go?”For a second I was stunned, I thought he had everything planned out, from the look of things, there really wasn’t an issue earlier. I couldn’t hold back my curiosity anymore.“What happened earlier when you called to cancel?” I know replying to a question with a question wasn’t ideal but I just had to know. I noticed his grip on the steering wheel tighten before he spoke.“I made plans for a dinner with my parents when I asked for your evening but…they had some things to do and traveled”Am I tripping or it sounded as if his parents traveled to avoid me?! That couldn’t be it, right? “Sorry, I shouldn’t have canceled on you. We can choose whatever way to spend the evening” He glanced at me and smiled making my previous

  • Auctioned to a mafia boss    Chapter 218: His first word

    “I love you”Klaus's husk voice whispered into Bella’s ear before drifting to sleep with his hands wrapped around her naked figure. It was safe to say Bella didn’t hear a word he said. She was long gone after the wash -up and just coiled her body into the sheets.But then who could blame her? It was still dark but only because these days had longer nights! They’ve been at it for hours and it was now three in the morning so she definitely needed her nap. Time passed and it became morning. The sunlight sipping through the window’s huge curtains casted a vague light on their naked bodies but it wasn’t enough to wake Bella up. She was totally lax from all the hectic activities of last night so Klaus was the first to wake up. He groaned as he turned on his back and sat by the bed side. His head turned to behold Bella’s sleeping frame and he tucked the blanket over her properly. His first instinct was to wash up but as he journeyed to the bathroom he found her purse that was tossed asi

    Arya’s POVToday was the third day of Nicklaus's condition and I made my choice. It took a series of critical thinking but I finally chose what’s best after weighing the pros and cons.Now I was getting ready for actual war! As crazy as it might sound the location wasn’t Nicklaus's office but instead the court of law!Today was the first hearing for the lawsuit against Andrew and as the plaintiff I picked out a pair of tailor-made suits, of course, it wasn’t just sitting in the closet. Damien made arrangements despite my refusal. It was pointless to decline now that the perfect pair was staring me straight in the face. Its peach color warmed my heart, compared to the cold winter weather it gave off a soothing feel so that’s what I’m going with. I never expected the first hearing to come so soon, it must’ve been brought forward because of the upcoming festive holidays but whatever the case may be, it didn’t affect our arrangements, even before I filed for a suit our gathered eviden

    Arya’s hands moved to clasp her lips, what she held was both shocking and surprising. Her gaze couldn’t help darting at Nicklaus’s peaceful face. Ever since the incident, she was inclined to bring up Aiden but she couldn’t muster the courage and avoided the topics like the plague. She’d often help him dress his wound while he slept on the drugs and when he was awake she was gone, leaving the maids to prepare and deliver the meals.This was about the time when she usually dressed his wound but something else stole her attention. In her hands were photos of her and Aiden, they were taken when she lived with Aiden, it appeared to be dated back to that day at the hospital. The pictures were only taken from one location. ‘The balcony’It must’ve been taken by a drone or something of that kind, her thoughts were in shambles, he knew about Aiden since?But why didn’t he do anything? Nothing made sense to her anymore. Hours passed after this discovery and Arya stayed seated in his r

    Arya's POVTechnically everyone here presence was closer to him than his supposed family. I can’t help but think I misjudged him when he said he had no family.Now I know he meant it, no one deserves to grow up in such conditions. With my fingers crossed I perched my ears to listen to the doctor’s announcement.“The surgery was a success. He didn't faint from excessive loss of blood but instead, exhaustion. He’ll be moved shortly, you'll be able to see him then but it'll take a while before he wakes up. His insomnia prevents him from sleeping so we induced him with something strong…”Nicklaus has insomnia? I never knew that, he always slept when we were together. “…Whoever is by his side when he wakes up should call the attention of a doctor. We can only verify his stability when he regains consciousness”.With that, the doctor left and I forgot how to move my feet, when I did remember, the first person I met was Klaus. “Nicklaus has insomnia?”I was staring at him for an answ

    “Please…I beg you, I can’t do anything else but this, I’ll find a way to repay you, I promise… Just please spare Aiden”What sounded like a hysterical laugh ended with a scorn from Jane.“Does that mean you’re choosing to pay with your life?… Don’t you get it? There’s no point begging. Juliet had to die because I knew she was in on it, even though she lied and pretended to be a saint, even when she made me take months of gun training, and even when she placed me instead of the real Jane to be Aiden's nanny. She claimed she did all that for my revenge but I knew, I've always known I'd kill her for what she did! So, you see… everyone involved dies, only then would it be fair!”Melissa seemed to have recovered from the shock and shouted.“Let me die instead, please!”“No!” Arya screamed with uncontrollable pain. “I would never let that happen! This has nothing to do with you-”“Shut your mouth, how can a mother be alive when her daughter dies? I’d hang myself if that should happen, I’

    “Nicklaus…drop your gun”Arya’s voice cracked but it was audible enough. Her eyes on the other hand were no longer sharp and full of life. It looked like a drawing with no emotions.Just desperation clouded her mind, she was at that point where selling her soul to the devil didn’t sound like a bad idea. Anything would do to get through this nightmare, “Please, just listen to me!” She screamed out in pain, her breathing was haggard and slowly Nicklaus lowered his hands and tossed his gun aside.“Very good, I knew you’d be useful in taming this beast. Now, hand over the ledger”All eyes rested on Nicklaus right now, amongst those eyes were Arya’s shocked gaze. Was she referring to the same ledger that got Luke killed? A shudder ran through her spine, she knew it was very important to Nicklaus, what if he doesn’t give it up and Aiden ends up paying with his life? After all, she hid him from Nicklaus all this while.What if he resents her for it and as retribution he lets Aiden,

    As expected the night was torture for Arya, she didn't dare lie down, afraid of what she'd see in her dreams tonight. Luke had sent a driver to retrieve Arya’s car so she held her phone while staring at the stars from the balcony. The chair she sat on still had Aiden’s scent and she couldn’t stop crying. How can what felt like heaven a few hours ago suddenly become hell?Such is the pain of longing, It casts a vague appearance in the memories and leaves behind fragments of pieces that end up becoming history. With time they start to feel warm in the heart, no longer the cold of the void space left behind but even the warmth is just the heart’s coping mechanism, nothing can truly replace the missing piece.Above all, it’s the guilt that eats deep into the heart that does the most damage, maybe if things were different seeing a brighter light would be possible sooner than later but that’s never the case.And that’s definitely not the case here!Arya clenched her chest tighter,

    The tension in the room immediately tightened, Lucious’s focus was now on Arya. Juliet’s words seemed to do the trick and he began his questioning.“Is this true?…”Of course, his question was met with no reply, of all the times Arya would be in the right state of mind to answer that, right now was definitely not the freaking time!“Are you going to keep avoiding me even if I’m right here? I saw the news and wanted to check in with you but you never answered the phone. So it really was you, Arya”His tone had a tinge of sadness lurking underneath its solemn feel but Arya heard none of this, in fact, she hadn’t spared Lucious a glance the entire time, her gaze remained fixed on Juliet.“I’ve brought the documents, hand over Aiden or there will be serious consequences!” The shakiness of her voice came from her boiling anger, she was so mad it felt like she would explode in rage but Juliet kept adding fuel to fire!“I didn’t know you had hearing impairments… Come tomorrow at noon to

    “HAPPY NEW YEAR!”“POW! POW!”Fire works graced the sky of the Smith’s residence, the atmosphere was bright and bubbly as were the hearts of everyone present witnessing the glorious scenes of colorful Fireworks bursting open in the sky.“Look Aiden, do you like it?”Arya voiced to the cheerful little man who was swinging his hands with great excitement. Luke and Melissa stood together while Arya stood some distance away with Aiden in her arms and all other members of the household including Jane went back inside to prepare the elaborate meal and Aiden’s necessary arrangements. It was twelve midnight, marking the dawn of a new day, and in this case a new year! So of course Aiden won’t be joining the fun. Jane took him to his cot while Arya, Melissa and Luke had a splendid time at the dining. A completely joyous family was all she ever asked for, it seemed impossible from the start and even the only one she had was taken away but life wasn’t so cruel afterward. It found a way t

    Without a word Klaus grabbed Bella’s hand and led her outside. She couldn’t help but think, wasn’t she the one who came to drag him out? How did she end up being dragged instead?He released her hands in front of his car and ruffled his wet hair against the cold air. “Aren’t you cold? Why did you get soaked?”She asked out of sheer concern but deep down she wasn’t complaining about the view he was feeding her lustful mind. It wasn’t bad enough his shirt stuck to him like tissue but a few buttons were undone to reveal his protruding chest. No straight woman could remain a nun when faced with this temptation yet she tried to peel her eyes off and focus it on his face but his face wasn’t any better!The base of his hair was turning black and because it was wet it appeared darker with the blonde tips that dripped off stray water droplets. “I’m fine, I needed to wash off the tipsiness”.“A-alright…” she stammered and it finally dawned on her, just how flushed she was at the though

    Bella’s POVChristmas Eve was going smoothly with Amiee. I cooked while she… well, she played games as usual, now that she got the new video game set from Klaus she even neglected eating! Not if I can help it though, she certainly wouldn’t starve on my watch. There were medications to be taken so not skipping meals was as important as breathing.“Amiee! Food is served!”“Coming!”That’s the third time this evening, I matched over and held her favorite stuffed animal.“Come eat or I’ll feed Ms Pears some food”“You can’t do that, you ruin her fur!”At last, something finally got her attention off the screen. It’s cliche that a teenager is still hung up by a stuffed toy but who am I to judge? As long as Ms Pears can get the Job done, she’s welcomed to stay.“The choice is yours, choose wisely”“Fine! Leave Ms Pears out of this”She stood up and abandoned her gaming machine. This made me wonder, just how important was Ms Pears to her.Would I be ranked lower than a stuffed animal
