"What's this, Ed?" I asked confused as the man came over to hand me a bag of groceries.

"Just look at it, Miss." I gave Edward a serious look then pulled out the object inside the grocery bag. A slightly glittering box made me look deeply at the man who was still faithfully standing beside me.

"At the hospital I told you that mister asked me to buy something for you. To replaced your two cell phones that you destroyed. I'm sorry that I didn't get a chance to give them to you."

I was silent as I listened to Edward's words. Why would Axe suddenly think of replacing my cell phone that was broken and thrown out the window that time. He was the first person to take that thing away from me, please add it to his list of sins if you like.

"Why did Axe change his mind?"

"I don't know, miss. Perhaps when mister is sober, you can ask him." I nodded in agreement. Edward was right. I could ask Axe directly when he regained consciousness.

"Then excuse me to return to mister company, Miss."

    "Where are you going, Axe?" I asked as I watched him lower his legs, preparing to stand up.Axe looked at me for a moment then walked slowly towards me who was still standing in the doorway. I was just about to visit him but he was already preparing to leave."I'm bored," he said as he brushed my hair lightly.Thankfully, Axe's condition was getting better after waking up from his coma. It took two days for him to recover from his weakened state, though now I can't say that he's well. Two days ago he literally just laid down in this medical room. He didn't talk much either, although sometimes I found him looking at me questioningly.I was actually quite surprised to see him standing tall in front of me. But it seemed like happiness dominated so much that I only gave him a smile."You need to rest.""I'm okay, Bridgette. You don't have to worry." Axe cupped my face with both hands. His eyes returned to staring at my lips intensely, the same as the first time h

    I stared blankly at the door leaf of the room in front of me. After the incident at the park, I felt something had changed about Axe. He became more quiet than usual. Sometimes I'd see him daydreaming, so lost in his own thoughts. During breakfast and dinner, Axe would often play with the food on his plate instead of eating it. He was thinking too much about the events that had passed. I was afraid he'd blame himself again and do something he shouldn't do. I sighed heavily. It seemed like my duties were increasing. I have to keep a close eye on Axe and pay attention to his health. The loss he experienced made him neglect to take care of himself."Axe, can I come in?" I knocked lightly on the door. This wasn't his room, let alone mine. Do you remember the room Axe remodeled last time? Yes. After his work was done. Axe immediately locked himself in that room."Axe?" I called again. I sighed again. There was no answer from him yet. It made me think negatively, lest he do something like

    My breath hitched as I recalled the events of that night. It seemed like my subtle rejection had an unpleasant effect on his heart. Whenever I tried to get close to Axe, he always avoided me. I could tell he was back in a prolonged bad mood. His time was always spent working, leaving early in the morning and returning late at night. The cycle was like that for two days. I didn't even get a chance to greet him with 'good morning or good night' 'have you eaten or not'. Even on his day off yesterday, he was busy in his office all day. Didn't he realize his attitude made me feel bad."Miss, the master asks you to the backyard."I was jolted by Edward's heavy voice coming from behind. I immediately turned my head, and sure enough-Edward was already standing there."What for, Ed?" I asked curiously. Didn't Axe not want to talk to me?"Just come along, Miss."I rolled my eyes lazily. I hope Axe doesn't do anything crazy.***I walked one step behind Edward. The man led me to the garden that

    I blinked at the fact that I'd been asleep for three hours. I should have been able to stay awake for the next two hours. I should have met Axe an hour ago like Edward said. Unfortunately, sleepiness could not be negotiated with. I just fell asleep after returning to the room. Tired. That's how I felt after leaving the garden full of heartbreaking scenes.I pulled back the blanket that covered almost my entire body, so eager to see him. I wanted to make sure that Axe was still controlled by what I said a few days ago. I was afraid he'd hurt himself again like he had."Sir is not inside, Miss." The familiar heavy voice managed to distract me. Edward was standing not far from Axe's room. Perhaps he knew that I would meet his master here."Where is he?"I tried to neutralize my heart that was beating violently after hearing Edward's statement. If Axe wasn't in his room, then where was he?"Master is in the practice room, Miss."I breathed a sigh of relief. Indeed, the practice room sound

    "What's wrong with that? Are you jealous?" I suddenly looked at Axe in horror after hearing his last two words.I'm jealous?Is that true?I just felt my heart tearing a little when I sae syalasa teasing Axe with her foot. My mind kept repeating a rather odd phrase, what if Axe was tempted by her? Thankfully, at that time Axe refused by stepping back a little. So that my somewhat heated feelings could be controlled."Look at me." Axe pulled my face upright towards him. Our gazes met again, making me quite nervous. Instead of what. My heart was hammering inside. What if Axe could hear it?"I've never touched any woman. Only you. You own me for the first time too."I stared at Axe in disbelief. What did he mean by talking to me like that. Did he really think I was jealous? It couldn't be. I tried to deny the truth. Maybe it's true. It looks like I am jealous."Look, Axe. I'm not jealous. You're wrong to think so. I'm just curious. That's natural, right?" I lied."Now tell me how you k

    I blinked at the slight movement beside me, and when my eyes opened. The first thing I saw was a handsome face that looked innocent asleep. There was a small purr from Axe's slightly parted lips. For whatever reason, he was both sexy and adorable in this state. Moreover, his silky brown hair was starting to extend almost to his eyes. Smiling slightly, I adjust his hair upwards. Now his forehead was clearly visible without interference. I cleared my throat as I realized the cloth compress on his forehead had fallen to the side. Maybe Axe moved last night so it didn't stay there for long."Have you had your fill of looking at me?" he asked in an increasingly hoarse and deep voice typical of waking up."I have," I replied feeling a tinge of red appear on my cheeks."Thank you." Axe looked at me deeply. Soon a smile was etched on his face along with dimples on the left and right sides."Do you feel better?""Yes. Better than ever."Axe pulled me in and scooped my body into his arms."Are

    My eyes rounded fully at the monitor screen that displayed information about the news of Syalasa's death in the apartment building, the girl allegedly committed suicide because she was frustrated by the negative rumors of her father who was involved in an illicit scandal with a woman of the night.My breath hitched harshly at the thought that this was not the case. The girl had clearly died at the hands of Axe. But the media was spreading fake news. Or, wait for it. Was the fake news a conspiracy to get Axe off the hook?"No quality!"The TV monitor screen turned off completely with the remote slammed in any direction. I could see Axe standing there looking at me disapprovingly. Is he done with his business? That rhetorical question was clearly unnecessary."What are you doing with Syalasa's body?"The word you guys is definitely related to Axe and Edward. Especially since Edward was the last person I saw taking care of Syalasa's body."It's just a small thing." Axe still gave me a sh

    I didn't have time to finish my surprise. The sound of hoofbeats from outside made the pounding even more intense. My body suddenly felt stiff. I was completely frozen, wishing that time could be stopped.My eyes closed tightly at the sound of the door knob. God. Help me. Don't let it be Axe. My heart almost dropped at the thought that he was really here."Miss, what are you doing in the master's room."My body immediately slumped in relief. Thank goodness it was Edward."Axe is sleeping in my room. So I took the initiative to tidy up his room."Edward looked at me suspiciously. His eyes narrowed at the threatening bouquet. His steps slowly approached me. I felt like running, but my body suddenly froze. Silently watching him get closer was all I could do. Until the bouquet of flowers in my hand now turned to him. Edward pulled it away from me."Half an hour ago the master sent me a message to clean his room, Miss. It would be good for you to return to the master. Don't let him see you

    Several months later... I was staring at Axe with an infected hand, next to him was Oracle, walking towards me. He had a baby in his arms. His head kept lowering to watch our daughter's face endlessly. A perfect smile completed Axe's happiness. His efforts to serve me when I was craving for something had paid off, as he was finally reunited with his child in person. I remember forcing Axe to make me roti canai, an Asian specialty, with his own hands. Axe could cook, but had no idea about that kind of food, but at the crack of dawn, I kept pushing him to get up to be an impromptu chef for his daugther's wish. It was a struggle to wake Axe up when he was exhausted after touching me relentlessly. It's his own fault for never being satisfied. Little did I know that his son would suddenly want something. Even though he had to, Axe did his duty. That time, with his eyes half open. He reached for the cell phone on the nightstand, digging into

  • Brother Luck(not)   Epilogue

    I gazed at the ring that was placed back on my hand with a smile of emotion and happiness. The sacred promise in Axe's name had been made. There was one more to go, but Axe never did. He just looked at me with his eyes sparkling with happiness, like an idiot who suddenly became a millionaire. What was he waiting for? Until I started first? Seriously! "You're making everyone wait too long for you," I said softly and almost in a whisper. "Sure?" asked Axe in confirmation. He raised one eyebrow at me suspiciously. "Are they or are you actually getting impatient?" he continued with a teasing smile. "Suit yourself, Axe." I turned to look at the faces there. The important people in my life were gathered in one frame. There was Oracle, mom, dad, my father and mother-in-law, and Rose who was so beautiful in a black dress. Next to her was Theo who always stalked Rose wherever she went. I think Axe's question at that time was very appropriate. What is the relationship between them,

    "You didn't mean your threat, did you, baby girl?"I didn't respond to Axe's question the whole way. Even from the time Oracle kept babbling until he was now sound asleep, I didn't respond to him. Earlier, after Rose and Oracle's hug was over. I immediately said goodbye to Rose and left Axe alone. Stepping quickly into the car with Oracle. He followed later with a face that seemed to be in deep thought, perhaps he was thinking about how to persuade me. Let it go. Let him know what kind of position I was in when I apologized to him. Being ignored doesn't feel good. Now let Axe get a taste."Bridgette," he called again.There's no answer for a moment, so I choose to close my eyes to join the Oracle on my lap. I'd rather sleep."Let me ask you, what's your friend got to do with that silly bastard? I saw him hiding in Rose's room and watching all of us."My eyes flew wide open. What did Axe mean and who could get inside Rose's apartment besides us?"Who

  • Brother Luck(not)   Marry Him

    Do you know what's wrong with roses falling? Because when it first blooms, it's too beautiful. -Theodore Witson -------------------------------- "Rose, thank you again. I don't know what my life would be like without your help." I hugged tightly the body of the beautiful woman, who was currently returning my warmth."You're welcome," Rose whispered as she gently rubbed up and down my shoulders. "In what way should I repay your kindness?"I couldn't help but make sure my voice sounded bitter. I couldn't bear to take the Oracle away from Rose. But what should I do? If I let Oracle be with Rose, that child would lose a complete family figure. Axe definitely wouldn't let that happen. He's been separated from Oracle since Oracle himself was still in the womb, how could that man ever want to give Oracle up. And if I'm being honest, I want Oracle too. Although the guilt for Rose would be much greater. "You paid me enough with your happiness. Don't be sad anymore, do you understand?" Ros

    "She's in the back like a chick," Axe replied. He suddenly moved away, no longer providing protection. "Hi, Rose." I smiled stiffly as Rose stifled a giggle at my ridiculous behavior. Just watch out for her! "Hi, Oracle." This time I turned to Oracle, he was looking at me deeply. There was a tension on his face that I didn't understand. Why, did my presence scare him? I shook my head faintly with an unfocused look, looking at the three people in front of me in turn. The Oracle could not accept my presence yet, that much I knew. I'd better get going. Yes, my legs slowly lifted backwards. Feeling that it was not enough, I turned my body quickly. Run! That's what my brain told me to do. But my movement was halted by a greeting from behind. "Hello, Mommy Bri." Mommy Bri... My head echoed at the Oracle's call. He called me mommy

    "Ready?" I turned my head to the side at Axe's question. From the Canadian airport, we drove straight to Rose's apartment. Axe and I were still in the car parked in the basement. He asked me if I was ready...my answer was no. I couldn't take Oracle's rejection when he saw me in front of him. As Axe had said back then, he would take me to pick Oracle up after everything was done. Yes, it was over as Axe's revenge was three weeks old. Uncle Danial was finally found guilty and sentenced to 35 years in prison. The prime minister's protection of him did not apply, because the evidence was in sight. Moreover, Uncle Danial was further aggravated by the presence of the prisoners that Axe released as witnesses in court. At that time, the trial lasted for about two weeks. No denials and no appeals made it all over quickly. I still remember the first and second trials. It was strange to sit in the opposite camp between dad and mom. Although

    "Damn kid! Where have you been all night, why do you have this bruise on your face?" We just arrived at Mr. O'Connor's residence, suddenly Axe was immediately questioned by his father. The explosion in the forest yesterday, no one had dared to tell my father-in-law about Axe's condition via voice call before the man was found. Mr. O'Connor is temperamental. He would have gone berserk knowing Axe was in danger. That's why Hema asked Alessandro and I to wait for the right time to tell him, which turned out to be the case even after I was gone, they still didn't tell Mr. O'Connor about Axe's condition. "Just a bruise." Axe chuckled in displeasure, continuing to avoid having Mr. O'Connor's hand on his face. "Really?" Mr. O'Connor gave Axe an incredulous look, then turned to glare at me. "What did Xelle do last night, Bridgette?" he asked, obviously knowing I wouldn't lie. I didn't do much. I just sighed and occasionally glanced at Axe, w

    "Watch out, Axe!" Bang! I hugged Axe as tightly as I could, making my body a shield for him. He once let a bullet bite into his body because of my mistake. Now I wanted to do the same, sacrificing myself for the one I loved. The sound of gunfire gave me pause to breathe. I should have felt the heat spread by the bullet. But until now everything still felt safe. I don't understand, my body is fine for no reason. "Don't do this next time. Don't protect me. I can take care of myself. What will happen to you if I don't hurry?" My body was forcibly released and I realized Axe's weapon was emitting smoke as he lowered his hand. What have I missed? I quickly turned around. It was a little unbelievable to find Arthur lying on the floor with his eyes open and a bullet stuck right in his forehead. "I don't want to kill. But letting yourself get shot is the most fatal mistake." Axe stroked my face briefly, then tucked the gun in his hand behind his body. "Don't do that again. Do you un

    "I told you not to try to escape from me!" A cold voice and the clomping of someone's feet made me turn around. Arthur was seen grinning cruelly with his gaze drawn deep. He was completely different from anyone I had ever known. "I've given you a choice. Obey if you want me to be nice!" Arthur gripped my jaw so tightly that I looked up to stare into his dark beads. He changed after the unwanted wedding into a big battle. I knew he was a victim of Axe's game. But, did it have to be this way? "Why did you kidnap me all the way here?" I forced myself to stare at the man in camouflage. There was no meaningful answer from him. He just smiled crookedly bringing my face closer. "Let go, Arthur. I have a husband," I said, pushing quite hard on his face. "I should be your husband." Arthur smiled bitterly. There was so much hatred in his eyes. He was right. He should have... He should have been my husband. But fat
