Octavia’s quiet acceptance to the whole situation had surprised Lucien. He had expected her to throw a fit, cause a scene or act like a toddler who’s lost her precious candy. She did none of those.

Well, he couldn’t really care less.

Walking half way across his suite, Lucien picked up his glass of wine from where he had previously sat and proceeded to his room. His steps only came to a stop when he caught a reflection of himself on a full view mirror hung on the wall.

He stared at the reflection, blinking a couple of times as his mind seemed to whirl.

Octavia was now out of his life, permanently, thus he could focus more on work. But for some reason, that wasn’t the case. In fact, his dedicated amount of time for work had reduced because of certain thoughts that he frequently found himself having.

Some days they’d go into overdrive and he’d be forced to sleep it out or dull those thoughts with drinks.

Slowly- even he noticed- it was turning into an unhealthy habit. He couldn’t really

    “Achoo!” Alexandra wiped her nose with a new tissue paper.She was falling sick, probably a cold she caught from standing under the shower all night and then falling asleep with a damp hair. Theodore would give her hell if he knew that she was taking such poor care of her health. So it was best if she kept it away from him.Nodding her head to her inner thought, she disposed of her used tissue paper and turned her attention back to work.

She felt disappointed with herself.Some daughter she is.Turning off the alarm, she made a mental not to miss the anniversary tomorrow, pay them a visit and with her free time rest. She slid open her drawer and chugged down her cold medicine, not like it was of any help

    Alexandra sighed and relaxed into her chair. She had done the right thing. No one on earth could convince her otherwise. Rather Benjamin’s words were just too funny. Her action would come back and bite her? Ha! Who exactly did he think she was?The only person who was on the road to regretting their decision was that woman. She was just as much of a traitor like the rest of her family.Sighing again, Alexandra closed her eyes. The back of her hand went up to touch her forehead. The temperature was well above the normal temperature of a healthy person, so she decided to call it a day, and just as she was about to stand up from her chair, there was another knock at the door.This time- thinking it was her uncle back for more trouble- she lost it and yelled. “Benjamin God so save your soul if you don’t get lost this very second.”There was another knock after her words and she exhaled through her lips. With reluctance, she called. “Just come in.”The door opened and when Lucien walked in

    Up close, her breath felt so feverish against his lips. He could almost taste the lavender of her cologne like it had been sprayed directly in his face. All this facts were so omissible with the little to no distance between them both.Lucien’s hand rested on the arm of the couch, stopping his body at the last moment from compressing with that of his ex wife. But that didn’t stop the way his heart had shut into overdrive, beating manically against his chest.Deep down, he hope Alexandra couldn’t hear it.Well his prayers were answered without a second to spare.

This feeling… this new feeling that her brain couldn’t process felt like it was going to swallow her whole. It was all too dangerous, yet, why did it seem like some part of her body did not fe

    Much like the rain, the burning feeling inside of her didn’t seem to leave. Instead, by this morning it seemed worse, both the rain and her burning insides.As she stared at the entrance of the graveyard, she couldn’t help but sigh and touch her forehead. It was hot.

Right now, all she needed to do was buckle up and finish her visit to her parent’s graves, after that, her body could do as it wished.Alexandra nodded and grabbed the flower bouquet and her black long coat, throwing it over the black gown she wore and stepped out of the car into an already waiting umbrella. Michael who had been holding the umbrella, bowed when she stepped out.“Do you need me to come along?” He inquired.She collected the umbrella and shook her head. There was no need. “Just wait in the car.” She ordered as she strode off and passed the rolls and rolls of gravestone, only stopping when she arrived at the desi

Every passing second that she stood in the cold atmosphere of the rain; her fever seemed to rise up.Finally done with paying her respect, she wiped her eyes and bowed.“Don’t worry about me Mom, Dad, this is nothing. I've made a promise and no matter what, I’m going to carry it out.”After placing a two finger kiss on the head of the gravestones she bowed for the final time and turned around, but just as she attempted to take a step forward, her vision became hazy and her legs wobbly. Before she knew it, her body had descended to the floor and a sharp pain coursed through her knees.What perfect fucking luck she had. Out of all the days she just so happened to fall sick before her parents anniversary. As if the day couldn’t get any worse.“Fucking great. Just freaking fucking great!” She furiously pounded her fist into the wet floor, looking for some sort of way to release the amount of frustration she had been harboring. But s

It was already past dinner time yet she was not awake, obviously nothing to worry about based on the doctors instructions, but based on those same doctors instructions she needed to ingest some form of solid food before at least taking her required medication and he doubted she had taking anything tangible throughout the day.A knock on the door had cut his attention in half.

Forever.Rays of sunlight streamed down on Alexandra’s face as her eyes slowly fluttered open. It was morning, a bright and beautiful one.

They were unfamiliar, not like her own bedroom, yet she somehow knew the structures.Her feet landed on the cold floor as she stepped out of bed, eyes trained on the multiple awards shelve ahead. She approached it and ran her fingers across them, then turned her gaze in the direction of the sunlight.

Like hell she was! Alexandra could phantom an answer as to how she could call herself that after all she might have done.

Those were not only symbols of peace, love, and hope but also reminders that life was still going on. She looked around slowly as if giving herself a moment to reflect upon how things have changed since then.Five years ago, when she had lost everyone she loved and was shattered to the core after her divorce with Lucien, Alexandra thought her life would never be same again.

    ~Day One Out Of Seven.~Alexandra returned to the Grey Manor that night after her conversation with Eleanor over the phone had ended.The first thing, or rather, the first person she saw as she stepped into the house was Darius.

He asked, his voice dripping with concern and worry.Alexandra softly sighed out. "Calm down, Darius." She said while gently stroking his hair. "I'm fine. I just had to take care of something little.""What?""I found out how Eleanor knew about my pregnancy.

    Eleanor pressed the button and imagine in that moment how it all played out.The best part of it all being that Alexandra was finally out of the way and she had emerged victorious after the long battle.No other thought could have made her smile the way she did.Eleanor's train of thoughts were interrupted by the sound of her phone ringing.

    Six out of seven of those days bad gone by. Eleanor had been unusually quiet. One would have almost thought that she bailed and ran away.But Alexandra knew better than that. She knew that the woman who had raised her in disguise as the perfect grandmother was more of a deadly predator than her sins gave her credit for.In other words, she isn't one to tuck her tail between her legs and run away. It was just a matter of time until she acted.'A matter of time...' Alexandra pondered those last few words as she watched as the last fragments of oranges, reds and yellows faded into a dark gray. The sunset had gone, and the blanket of night began to cover the world in the darkness of its shadow.After a while, she pulled her gaze away and sighed, focusing on the pile of work that was on her table.Because of Darius's over protectiveness, she had worked less in the last few days and barely ever came to the company.

How could Eleanor have found out that she was pregnant?Alexandra thought, after all she had done everything in her power to make sure that Eleanor did not find out. To make sure that the news of her being pregnant did not reach the ears of any of her foe. Yet, here she was, hyperventilating over the fact that Eleanor had learnt of her child's existence while breathing like some dying cow.'Calm down, Alexandra.' she tried to calm herself as soon as she noticed how ragged her breathing was becoming.She found her way back to her bed and sag down, controlling her breathing and thoughts together.
