Bound To King The worst punishment ever.
EMILYI knew I had bitten off more than I could possibly chew.Alexandro was went out of sight after he threw Ian a punch, I had to commend Ian for not returning it.I could feel his gaze on me but I didn't see him no matter how I turned. I thanked and apologized to Ian who didn’t seem offended in the slightest.“If Alexandro gives you a tough time, you can call me.” Ian offered. It was funny that both father and son offered me their number. I hadn’t seen Anthony all through the party.“I didn’t see Anthony today.” I voiced my thoughts and was surprised to see Ian frown.“Do you both have any… unfinished business?” He stepped a bit closer as he asked the question, making the question sound personal.“Of course not. I only noticed that I haven’t seen him.” I said hurriedly. “Goodnight Ian. Thank you once again. I had a lovely time today.” And now I was going to pay for it.It took an eternity for me to walk to the front of our suit. I knew Alexandro was angry. It hadn’t been my intenti
Bound To King Suicidal
EMILYI spent the whole of the night on my knees beside him, begging, repeating the words, “Please…please… please.”Nothing seemed to get past his unforgiving skin. How could I sleep when each second mattered concerning my father’s life? He was so close to recovering. There were two weeks to the end of the month and knowing my father could have woken up in that period if I had stayed put hurt me.I did this to him, any retardation would be my fault. Why hadn’t I played it by the book?“We will have breakfast with the Ortega’s. it’s your chance to prove to me that you get my message.” I heard his voice say.My knees were too weak to hold my body up at this point so I was sprawled on the floor. My eyes were red from the last of sleep and I knew I looked a mess.I hauled myself up to the closet. First, I needed an apology dress. Something modest and cool. Something everyone would see and know that something had changed.No more colors for me. I’ll be sticking to black, even down to my und
Bound To King A miscalculation
ALEXANDROI had made a very big mistake. I went against my words. I told her she would be happiest with me but went ahead to cause her more pain than she had ever imagined, which had been my intention.But I had made a mistake along the way. The plan was to hurt her and not myself, this was a drastic measure to keep Emily in check, It was for her own good, but somewhere along the way, I had gone too far. Not in the sense of her punishment but in my attachment to her.It hurt me to see her in pain. Her tears and the sound of her sobs wrapped themselves around my heart like a vice.She didn’t sleep all through the night and I couldn’t either. I pretended to sleep hoping she would go to sleep but she didn’t.I was relieved when she stood up at last. That was more like it. She couldn’t be stuck on the floor forever. Tears solved nothing.Pride swelled in me when I heard her movement in the closet. Emily was preparing for tomorrow. I knew at that moment that she had learned her lesson, suc
Bound To King Six hours of ruin
ALEXANDROShe didn’t die.But she wasn’t quite alive either.“We’ll leave her on oxygen for the main time and observe her.” The doctor said.“Is this normal?” I asked the doctor. I knew people didn’t drown in their tubs every day but I wanted to know if it was the normal process after someone almost died by drowning.“Cases like this are rare, especially with the whole bathtub thing. You said you heard no struggling sound.”“I was asleep, I searched for her as soon as I woke up,” I explained.“The thing is, when people are confronted by death, they fight for life. I’m sorry to ask this but Do you think she did that on purpose? Does she have any reason to?” The doctor asked, looking me in the eye.“Why do you ask? What do you mean?”The doctor took a deep breath in and out. “Your wife has no will to leave. This is something she can go through, the danger is past now but she isn’t responding to anything. It feels like she doesn’t want to respond, it’s not like she can’t.”“Emily isn’t th
Bound To King Meet Alexandro King.
ALEXANDROThe thought began to weave in my heart. She must not know. Emily must not know.Grief and remorse were gone. All my mind could weave was a way to keep her.Emily must not know about the baby, ever if possible. She would find out about her father later but not now, not in this mental state.I raced to the doctor’s office. “She must not know.”“What?” He asked confused.I stalked up to him and placed my hands on his shoulders. “I don’t want my wife to know, ever. About the baby. We need as minimal psychological damage as possible.”The doctor scratched his head and gave a deep sigh. “I understand what you mean and I agree with you. But you’re a bit too late.”The nurse had just gone to give her the drugs for her empty womb, it had a bit of effect they would have to prepare her for. She would have to tell her about the baby.I raced to her private ward but it would make no effect, I found Emily sitting up, the oxygen had been disconnected and she looked broken.Emily looked up a
Bound To King A new life
EMILYIt was amazing how time flew. It was unbelievable that this life I was living was mine.I was back in America but not in Alexandro’s house or the hotel. In fact, the only time I saw him lately was on the television.I could live my life freely because all photos of me were taken out of the internet and I was a free woman. I dyed my hair black again, kept it straight and no one ever recognized me.The last time I saw Alexandro was when he came to give me the deed of my dad’s house. I didn’t know how he got it but I was grateful for it. He offered me no explanation and I didn’t ask for one either. He sent a crew to help me move in, he paid me as he promised at the beginning of our contract.I was a rich woman now.My phone alarm rang in my pocket, it was almost time for my therapy session.I sipped the milkshake in my hand as I climbed up the stairs. I got to the hospital a bit earlier, took the stairs to avoid people and have time to myself, and maybe took a little rest too as cl
Bound To King My marital status?
“So, will you attend the party with me?” Zach asked, I could see he was nervous, shifting from one foot to another.In the few months that I’d returned to school, I had been asked out by different people a couple of times but Zach was the cutest of them all. I noticed him, he was cute and a brilliant guy. He was unlike other guys that thought there was charm in being a badass or an asshole.“I’d love to Zach, but I’m busy that day.” I lied.He frowned, “Which day?”“The day of the party.” I racked my head for the date, 26th? 27th? I never listened to announcement for parties.“Emily, you don’t even know the date. You could have just said no, that you don’t like me.” He was hurt.“It’s not like that Zach, irrespective of the date, I can’t attend the party with you. I’m sorry.” I was sorry, if nothing else, I’d have loved to go out with Zach or be close to him. As friends anyway. No love for me in this world. “You’ll find another girl,” I said before walking out.I had two more classes
Bound To King Expressing my pain.
I couldn’t help laughing. “Why do you think I’m hesitant?”“Because of the divorce. I won’t judge you for it. We all make mistakes. I’m glad you have the boldness to correct yours. Many would stay.”“My life is not that simple Zach. Maybe after I settle with the divorce but not now.” I begged, I wasn’t ready to deal with another man.“I don’t mind Emily, but if that’s what you want, I’d wait.” Zach lifted his hands to my shoulders, “I like you that much Emily. I’ll be patient for you.”“I mind though.”I had seen the car park, it had caught my eye, it was a beautiful car, but I wouldn’t have guessed that it was his.“Alexandro.” I gasped. He looked so handsome, his hair had been recently styled, and it was beautiful. He wore black, it made his skin shine and bright. My heart gave a weak thud. I didn’t know what I felt for this man. “Who are you?” Zach asked. How could he be so stupid? Couldn’t he put two plus

Bound To King Heaven
EMILYAlexandro was too restless to do anything. he wouldn't sleep, we literally forced him to eat. All he did was sit and watch his baby.Our Miracle.I stood by the door. I was sure he hadn't noticed my presence, all his attention was on our son. It was like Alexandro wanted to memorize every one of the boy's features."You have all the time in the world. You will watch him grow, we both will." I said to him.Alexandro broke into a small smile but didn't turn to me. "Are you mad I didn't tell you earlier?" I asked. I hoped he wouldn't be.He shook his head, "I'm a bit glad you didn't, I fear I might over thought t if you had told me. Thank you for being a strong woman Emily. You did very well in my absense.""But I am not doing too well in your presence, am I?" I asked."Of course not." He murmured. I hid a smile because I knew what was wrong.I wrapped my arms around him from behind. His muscles were taut like he was tense and scared, I couldn’t help rubbing my cheeks against his ba

EPILOGUE 2ALEXANDROParis prison shouldn’t even be considered a prison. It was just another place where I was King. I ruled the whole ward in the first month I got there and was worshiped during the rest.What a year in prison couldn’t do, just five minutes with Emily did it. made me scared, made me feel weak.I saw through her façade and saw the anxiety she tried to mask her nervousness.“Well, it’s not that.” She murmured, avoiding my eyes.I would have thought it to be impossible but Emily looked even better than I remembered. Prettier. Her violet eyes shone brighter, and although I knew she was nervous, true happiness filtered out through her eyes, and my heart broke.“Who is it?” I asked.“What?” She looked somewhat lost.“Who is he?” I knew from her eyes. She was happy. She had met someone else and he made her happy.“DO you know why I couldn’t visit you even when you finally permitted me to?” She asked.I broke her gaze. I had started it by refusing to see her. I needed her to
Bound To King NEW BEGINNINGS
EPILOGUE 1EMILYOne year Later.I was late.Technically anyway. They would wait till I got there.France's government had taken it upon themselves to deliver Alexandro back to America. I think it was their way of making amends considering the worth of the properties he had in their country.As his wife on paper, I had to be the one to pick him up.If it were up to me, the whole family would follow me but I didn’t trust them not to leak my big secret to Alexandro before I did. And I wanted to be the one to do it. I was a bit uneasy about his reaction, maybe scared but what was top on my heart was to see him.I wonder how prison had treated him. I was also guilty he had gone there because of me. My fault.“How do I look?” I turned to Chloe, giving her a 360 degree view of my dress. More than anyone else, Chloe was most displeased with me.A little bit jealous too that I came back with my mother.“Very much more dashing than you should.” She replied, her face stoic but I could see her ey
Bound To King A new reason to live.
EMILYThe case had been adjourned three times and we had to change lawyer halfway through but finally, the trial came to an end.At first, we had thought the case and court were just for formality but it had been discovered that Russo’s long-lost grandmother was French, and the French government wanted to fight for her citizens.We claimed self defense but apart from Amelia and I, there was no one to testify against Russo in court. It didn’t help that the man was head. Alexandro had aimed for his head. His brains had popped out and the doctors marked it as intentional murder.Although I had begun to heal from the wound and my wounds were marked minor, I reported Russo’s long-time stalking and showed the pictures he had made of me. I was no longer ashamed to show it as I knew it wasn’t me but we didn’t tell the court that.Luckily, Sarah had a secret camera that had caught him kicking me. Now we were waiting for the judge to announce her verdict.Alexandro was made to pay a thousand do
Bound To King Multiple reunions
EMILYI was alive.My legs hurt, and so did my chest and head but I felt no excruciating pain that should have come from a gunshot.The room was still again like everyone held their breath.“Emily.” I heard someone call. It was Sarah. I opened my eyes.Russo lay on the floor. He was unmistakenly dead and his brains had been slipped open. I closed my eyes again.Strong arms lifted me. Not sarah’s arms.Alexandro.I opened my eyes again. My head was swimming, so many things happening at the same time. “Where do you hurt?” Alexandro’s voice asked.“He hit me. My head, my legs, my chest. He hit Amelia too. Take care of Amelia.” I rasped. My head was banging. Maybe it was the noise of the gunshot. It could also be from when he smacked my head with the gun. I closed my eyes again.Alexandro’s hand touched my legs and I winced. “I think it’s broken. I’ll take you to the hospital.” Alexandro said moving me outside. “Sarah will take care of Amelia.” I nodded, letting him take care of me.I hea
Bound To King Long time no see.
“Amelia killed your dad.”EMILYMy eyes shot to my mom. “What’s he saying?”Amelia was rude and sassy, she was stuck on herself, and didn’t care about other people, but a murderer? I didn’t think so.I didn’t know what she did for her agency or whatnot, but why would she kill my dad? And I thought I knew how my dad died. Alexandro cut him off life support.But who knew what devilish things she did for the agency? There had to be a reason Sarah’s dad didn’t let her join.“Explain,” I commanded.“Explain mama.” The masked man echoed unnecessarily. “Explain how you ruined this beautiful princess’ life and mine as well.”Amelia began crying. “I didn’t know he would have a heart attack. I swear. I just wanted him to leave me alone.” She began.“He kept trying to find me, I sent letters, telling him to stop looking for me. I didn’t know how but I managed to find myself once and the agency didn’t like it. So I had to find a way for him to stop trying to find me.” She stopped, sobbing. The so
Bound To King Being Strong
EMILY“Someone grew balls, not enough though, since you still need a mask on your face.” I rasped. I tried to sound bold but my voice sounded hoarse. The only thing I had control over was my facial expression. “And that gun.” I scoffed. “Do you know how to use it?” I placed the bag down and settled on the chair closest to the door. “What do you want?” I asked.“You have a very pretty mother.” He said, ignoring my questions and not minding my taunts. “I heard that you both aren’t on good terms.” He played with Amelia’s hair as he spoke. Then he stopped to remove the rag from her mouth.I recognized it as the kitchen napkin. He came through the kitchen while Amelia must have come through the door. He wasn’t a professional, from his muscles I could see all he had was brawn. He could smash a window open but couldn’t pick locks.I wasn’t afraid of him but I could tell Amelia was, and I couldn’t figure out why. Amelia wasn’t the type to fear.“Mommy here has a confession to make.” The man n
Bound To King Surprise!
EMILY“You reek of sex,” Sarah complained disapprovingly as she drove me home. I said nothing but couldn’t stop smiling. “So you’re getting back together with Alexandro?” She asked.That made me frown.She was ruining the good mood three orgasms had put me in and I didn’t like it. “I don’t know yet.”“So, the sex was just a mistake or what?” She asked, avoiding my eyes. I was fine with that, I didn’t particularly appreciate it when she took her big sister role to this angle.“No, it was very intentional.” I wouldn’t deny that I even initiated it if she asked.“But you’ve not decided what you’re going to do with him. That’s a bit harsh. You’re giving him the wrong signals. You’re using him.” She scolded.Now that got at me. “Would you rather I fucked someone else? He’s my husband for Christ’s sake.” I was getting irritated.Sarah noticed because she stopped pushing but the seeds she had sown in my head began to take root and grow.Just a few hours ago I had been ranting at Amelia, but
Bound To King Rejecting rejection.
EMILYI wasn’t going to accept being rejected. Hell no. I knew just the way to make him change his mind, it was easy when I could see he wanted me too, the bulge in his pants was very noticeable.My hands came up to the buttons of his shirt; he knew what I was about to do even before I touched the first button.“Don’t.” He moved out of the room immediately, and I followed behind. I had three buttons done by the time he turned back. “What are you doing?” He screamed.One side of the wall was glass and his men only had to pass to see me naked. I pulled the shirt over my shoulder and just in time someone passed by. Alexandro pushed me back into the room in an instant. I pulled him along and clicked the door shut, blocking it with my body, then threw the shirt on the floor.I was going to die of embarrassment if he rejected me now.He closed his eyes, willing himself not to look at me. And I smiled, victory was close.I pulled his hand, taking his fingers in between my legs to show him ho
