"F*ck!" cursed Axe as he watched his phone screen. I pulled my head closer to find out what he was angry about, but all I got were snippets of indistinct video as Axe deliberately sped up the duration, then tossed the phone aside. My own phone was even unconsciously still gripped so tightly by my hand that there were marks on it.
"Damn it!"Axe rubbed his face tiredly, then rather rudely grabbed, or rather pulled, the black fake hair with a rather thick texture like Arthur's. Until now, not a single hair was visible on Axe's head.After that, Axe moved to remove the black suit and several shirts that were deliberately layered on his body. Axe's movements continued until the last layer, the man only unbuttoned half of the shirt which revealed his tattooed chest.It looked like Axe was trying to remove something that was stuck together with his skin. His face was so serious and he didn't look at me at all. As for me, it took some time to wait for Axe to open somethingBruk!Axe and I gasped in shock at the sound of a rather loud crash from behind. Our bodies were pushed forward due to the force caused by the collision. Obviously, it was a collision that was intentionally carried out by irresponsible people. Oh, let me guess, they must be Arthur's men. But how could they chase after us so quickly."F*ck!""Faster, Ed!" commanded Axe as he changed my position back to sit beside him.Axe turned around to do something back there. I couldn't see what Axe was doing, but from the sound of it, it seemed like Axe was unpacking where some things came from. "Get down." That was Axe's order to me. The next thing Axe did was to take out half of his body through the window with his hand holding a gun aimed at the enemy.Bang!The sound of Axe shooting through filled my eardrums. A few moments later there was a severe scraping sound between the car tires and the paved road. I was so curious that I turned around to see the mess Axe had made.The car that had lure
"Get down, Bridgette!""F*ck!"Axe continued to cuss as they relentlessly attacked. From the specifications of the shot marks that didn't penetrate, I'm sure this car is bulletproof. Even so, we still had to be vigilant, Edward could have swerved because he was trying to dodge for the safety of the car tires."There is a forest around here, sir. You can take your lady there. I'll go fishing to attract their attention."After a long silence Edward finally spoke up, the man still seemed to be focused on driving, although his eyes occasionally looked at the windshield that was directed at me and Axe."You want to drop us off at a time like this? Our position is very close to them.""I'll speed up until we're far enough away, then I'll slow down. When the car is running slowly, sir and miss can jump out.""Don't be silly, Ed." Axe seemed unaccepting of Edward's thoughts. Honestly, I also shuddered in horror at his words. Although I had acted recklessly a
OneTwoThreeI closed my eyes tightly, then let myself be thrown out of the car. It felt like my whole body was shaking with my own fear, I didn't even dare to open my eyes until I knew Axe had caught me. We ended up falling together with Axe's body stomping on the ground, while I was on top of him."You're so heavy," Axe chuckles as I immediately give him a light punch. How could he joke in such a precarious situation. Of course, we had to hide immediately before the enemy's car passed this way.I quickly got up leaving Axe himself still lying down. He looked at me for a moment before following me upright."Come."Axe immediately pulled my hand and led our bodies to hide behind a large tree. It took a while for us to see the line of cars passing by, they were aggressively chasing Edward's car. Hopefully Edward could trick them as planned, lest Edward get caught because that would be another problem."Are you okay?" asked Axe with his breath still pa
"Bridgette." I was just about to call him and Axe had already said my name. Before that, Axe's hands moved to remove the fake lenses on his eyes. Then he looked at me deeply. "I have one secret to tell you," Axe continued mysteriously.Axe's sudden words made my heart race. What secret and why? For this one thing I know Axe well, not usually he willingly tells me things that are confidential. The man was introverted and completely untouchable, it didn't make sense that Axe would come offering to tell me something."What?"I didn't believe Axe's previous words, but I was as casual as possible in responding to his sentence which was still a question mark in my head. Don't let Axe discourage him from telling me."What's the secret, Axe?" my urging went unanswered by Axe.For a moment I saw doubt in his eyes, occasionally Axe's lips opened and then closed simultaneously. There was a desire that could not be held back, but there was also a fear that could no
"Axe," I called cautiously.I swallowed my saliva roughly, hoping Axe wouldn't take offense at my question later. It's none of my business, but I need to know the real information that I've been digesting. I don't want this misunderstanding to continue to the end."Why did you take Isabel's life?""Uncle Danial said Isabel refused to let you harass her and you finally chose to kill her, is that true?"I don't know if my question provoked Axe's anger or not, what is certain is that his activities have stopped and at this moment Axe is looking at me sharply with a meaningful look."I'm being slandered, that's not true," Axe quickly denied."I did shoot Isabel, but Isabel herself asked me to do it," Axe continued passionately, as if an old wound that he had buried deep was coming back to haunt his head."Isabel took a gun from the old man's study and forced me to press the trigger on him." "I was only 15 years old at the time, the various tortures I rec
"What did Uncle Danial do when he saw you shoot Isabel?""Did he report you to the police?"I didn't care how Axe would react to my two questions, all I wanted was for him to answer honestly. I'm sure there were many heartbreaking things Axe had to go through after the bloody incident between him and Isabel. One of them was Doctor Felice's statement about the meaning of Axe's drawing, most likely the circumstances of Isabel's death did affect the poor man."Don't keep quiet, Axe. Tell me what happened to you after that."My hand moved to stroke Axe's firm jaw relentlessly. That's Axe's weakness, he won't put up with my actions and I'll continue to torment him if he won't answer me.I slowly crawl to sit on Axe's lap, our current position facing each other. Axe doesn't resist, in fact he happily accommodates my body on his thighs, he's profiting a lot."Bridgette," Axe growls under his breath as I press my lips to his."Speak up, I want to hear.""What?"I was sure Axe was feigning ign
No! I shook my head in disbelief. Surely, I can melt Axe's untouchability. He's all mine, I have full rights over Axe. I'm his wife, just like he said."Listen to me... you're my husband, right?" I cupped Axe's face, pressing it a little so he wouldn't try to look away. "You admit that, right?" I continued looking deeply into Axe's face. I could see Axe's forehead wrinkle as he listened to what I had just said. His eyes moved wildly watching my face deeply, it seemed like Axe was thinking about something that I believed was directly related to me."Answer me honestly. You've been fucked by Uncle Danial, right?"Just now I expected Axe to soften, but what happened next was that Axe pushed my body roughly. He got up from his sitting position and gave me an unaccepting look, looking so angry that his face turned red."I never mentioned that before. How did you know your uncle did that to me? What have you known all along, huh?" Axe asked passionately. His ches
But unfortunately, we were already so peaceful. From the distance, Axe and I heard the sound of an explosion that echoed in the forest sky. What the hell was going on?I shook my head in disbelief. Hopefully, the sound of guns firing into the air came from wild animal hunters, not from Axe's enemies who had caught up with us.I really couldn't imagine what was to come. Let's say, I can still tolerate the sound of the explosion, the first sound still didn't make me release Axe's body from my embrace. But I couldn't bear to hear the second pop, which subconsciously forced us both to break away and stare at each other.Axe...He gave me a look that I had no idea what it meant. Our breathing was rough together, until the change in expression from Axe managed to silence me. The wary look in his eyes without pause rubbed off on me, I suddenly felt bad at the thought of what might happen. Could Axe's loud voice when he was angry and asked me to answer him provoke the enemies, whoever they
