Bound To King The urge to kiss her
ALEXANDROI opened my mouth, but no words came forth.Emily had been angry, saying all the things that she had bottled in, opening my eyes to the numerous ways that I had missed it, and now I stood in her living room while she fed her dog.I still didn’t know what to say. Saying I’m sorry now was kind of late, but not saying it now meant I wasn’t sorry. Words could not express how sorry I was, how I wanted us to get back together, and how I wanted things to change for the better.“Give me a chance to make it up to you.” I said at last. “I am very sorry for the challenges you encountered as my wife. Give me a chance to make it up to you, to take care of you.” I said it as seriously as I could.Emily was inhinged; she burst into laughter right at my face. “I’ll pass, Alexandro.”I took a deep breath. I hardly lost my temper anymore, but just a few words from her mouth, and my patience was being tried. I struggled to control my breathing and not raise my voice. “I won’t divorce you, Emil
Bound To King Sweet dreams, Emily
EMILYI saw him off to his car; we walked side by side because neither of us had wanted to walk in front of the other. We let Bella do the honors.“Thanks for the meal.” I said politely.“Thanks for having me.” Alexandro replied. “I’ll see you soon.” He said, making way to his car.I had expected him to ask for a kiss again; I wanted to kiss him too, but what was a girl without her pride? Being in proximity with him had awakened my feminine needs; I had forgotten the things he could do to my body.It was hard to hate him when he acted so humble. I wasn’t a cheap girl, so I pulled my body back into control and told myself not to do anything stupid.I lifted my hand to wave him goodbye; he smiled and waved back, but before he got in, he spoke, “One more thing. I fired Alisha.”I blinked, surprised. I grumbled a tiny ‘Why?’. He didn’t reply, even though I was sure he heard. He started his car and drove off.Then I realized I had never been to his house as his wife; I hadn’t met Alisha ei
Bound To King I'm ready.
EMILY.Sweet dreams, Emily might have been the first text he sent to me but it wasn’t the last. Alexandro didn’t stop with the text either. I got flowers, at school, and home, even Bella wasn’t left out. He sent new things for her, a new collar, a new walker, even cookies.I got chocolates too.It felt like I was being courted. I cannot deny that I loved it, but even as I did, some did not. Zach.Now I’m wondering if his name was Zacchaeus or Zachariah. Just a passing thought, not like I cared. Alexandro was a fine enough name for me.Now if nothing else, Alexandro’s new act of sending things made me think of him, made me expectant of him, made me text him back to express my gratitude, and even after saying thanks, we shared other things before ending the conversation.He told me about his day even when I wasn’t willing to share mine. I’ve heard so much about his office that I wanted to see it. I also knew now that there was a huge frame of me on the wall and another on his desk.“Whi
Bound To King Choosing ignorance.
EMILYTalking turned out to be harder than I thought, Sasha asked questions I had never asked myself, and we both unraveled the mystery of my mind together.I thought I didn’t but I came to realize I blamed myself for a lot of things, which was why I found it hard to hate Alexandro. I blamed myself for my mother’s death, I blamed myself for leaving my dad home alone, for his accident, I blamed myself for killing my baby, even if I hadn’t drowned intentionally, I had slept in a tub and got my baby killed.The guilt would not go away in one day but I would no longer live in denial. I’d forgive myself and live with it.I began to spend more than an hour with Dr. Sasha and I was glad to make progress. She made me buy a journal where I would write things I wanted to tell her when she wasn’t there. That way I wouldn’t forget things and also find an outlet.When I was rejoicing in overcoming one problem in my life, another began to spring up named Zach.Bella and I agreed to meet up in a res
Bound To King The future
EMILY“If I hadn’t missed you all day, I’d start staying away if I’d always get this reaction when you see me.” Alexandro teased into my ear.I pretended to be offended and tried to get out of his embrace but he held me tighter, wrapping his arms around me. He smelled of sweat and stress so I let him hold me. I didn’t need an explanation to know he’d had a busy day.“Let’s go inside,” I said into his chest.“Wait, let me hold you like this for a minute.” He begged. I let him, staying in his arms and letting him hold me, sharing my strength with him. We were like that for more than a minute but I let him stay.“I might need a bath. I spend today at the factory.” He said, “I know I reek of sweat.”“Why do you join your workers to do what you pay them for?” I asked. Talking about work had made me learn then Alexandro wasn’t the one to fold hands and let people do everything for him even if it’s their duty to. He was a good businessman, as influential as one can be. He respected everyone
Bound To King Strange happenings
EMILY“Stay the night.”Alexandro stood by his car and I could see he was reluctant to leave as well.He was holding me in a hug, his hands dancing at the end of my back, slightly grazing over the top of my house.“If I do, I might spend the night trying to convince you to move in with me.” He murmured, his breath carried the beer we had drank earlier and I couldn’t help but chuckle when I remembered he eventually drank most of mine. And I got a reason for him to stay.“Oh my goodness, I can’t let you drive after drinking. It’s against the law!” I exclaimed dramatically.“Do I get to sleep on your bed?” Alexandro nudged.“Well, only if you want to.” I teased knowing he would never sleep on the sofa. I saw it in his face when he resigned to stay the night and pulled away so we could walk inside but he held me steadfastly.“Can I still have that kiss?” he asked, there was no hungry desire in his eyes like earlier and I knew it was safe.I met his lips with mine and at the same moment hi
Bound To King She was alive.
EMILY“Seat, calm down. I’ll reinstall the alarm systems and make them tighter.” Alexandro said, rubbing his arm up and down my shoulder.“But why? No one else’s house was touched, just mine, why?” I cried. I didn’t like the idea that someone was after me.“I hadn’t even planned to leave the house, then I did and came out to see that someone had tried to break in. What if they had succeeded in breaking in and hurt Lisa.” I cried.“We would not give them the opportunity to.” Alexandro assured me. Then he stooped down to meet my eyes, “Would you like me to assign you a bodyguard? A woman if you’d like.”I didn’t like the idea of being saddled with someone I didn’t know but the thought of someone trying to attack wasn’t funny either. “I’d think about it.” I sighed.I looked around the house… “What do you think they wanted?” Alexandro asked me.I do not have the slightest idea. “I don’t know.” I shrugged.Then I saw the look on Alexandro’s face, his eyes was stuck on the table. “Emily?

Bound To King A quiet entry
“Plane crash my foot.” Emily cried, hitting her foot against the table. I could see she was angry but therapy must have paid off because she wasn’t bitter.I rubbed her back again because it was all I could do. I hated feeling useless. Being useless wasn’t a feeling I could afford now because I just remembered something. I hated that something could still come up at a time like this.I had thought the worst had come and gone. Why? Why did this have to show up now?I remembered I had thought her name was Familiar. Emily Fitz. Now it all began to make sense. Someone was playing a game with Emily’s life and I was only a pawn.Not anymore though.“My mother is a lying murdering bastard.” Emily cried hitting the table with every word she said. I pulled her away before she hurt herself. Bitterness was starting to show. Looks like Dr. Sasha still had more work to do.“Murdering?” I asked, keeping my tone light. I didn’t want her asking what was wrong. It popped up in my mind to tell her the
