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 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
