I walked back and forth in the cell, all I could think of was Jaxon and the twins. How did I manage to get to this place? What was the reason behind Alex separating us? I didn't even know where my sons were? And how they are doing.All these thoughts ran through my head, making me so sad and almost bringing me to tears. I heard footsteps approaching outside my cell, I turned quickly, feeling my heart beating faster. I was shocked when I saw Lisa, her gaze focused on me. Was that remorse I was seeing on her face? She looked defeated and I began to wonder what the reason for this visit was."Ayla, we need to talk." she said gently. "Talk?" I asked incredulously. "After everything you have done to me? Lisa, you are the one responsible for me being in this terrible situation. You're the one responsible for depriving me of everything including my sons!" I tried not to scream, but I couldn't help it as the rage continued to increase and the tears began to flow freely.I noticed she
I walked confidently down the light faded tunnel, keeping my gaze on the person standing by the wall; Scorpion. Although we had met before, this time I needed to give a warning message."You must be very stupid huh?" I commented.Raising an eyebrow, he kept his gaze on me. "I may be many things but the last thing I would want anyone calling me, especially coming from someone like you, is calling me stupid. I don't take such words lightly”.“I believe you know the name Jaxon?, I want you to stay away from him."I watched Scorpion let out a snort. "Why would I want to do that?” He queried "It is obvious you don't want to learn. I have always warned people like you staying in other people's business. Jaxon is not worth the effort." Scorpion lifted his chin, a touch of amusement twinkling in his eyes. "Oh, but is he deserving of your time and effort? Tell me something more amusing, please” He said laughing I breathed deeply, controlling my anger. "Jaxon and I have a history togethe
I got up to answer the door when I heard the knock, wondering who it could be. I was mad when I saw that it was Alex."Hello Ayla,and how are you enjoying your new found freedom" He asked with a smirk on his face. I hated his guts and his cockiness and all I could think about was strangling him right here and now."Enough with the games Alex, please enough. I have gone through a lot in the hands of everyone and you wouldn't add yours to it." I said."Oh but that's not why I'm here,he said. “I came here to make you an irresistible proposal”. He said"I am not in the mood for your stupid games Alex,what have you come here for? How did you even find me?” I asked in anger "Easy sweetheart, you don't have to be aggressive about it. I just want to make a proposal. One that will see you and your sons safe and out of harm's way forever" He leaned closer "And also clear your name of those supposed charges for good." He said with a smirk on his face."What do you want?" I asked finally "I wa
The room fell silent, only the sound of my heart racing in the air. I woke up to see Alex's bare torso in my field of vision. His sculpted torso and defined abs were on full display, didn't he know how to be properly dressed around a lady?Alex moved closer, his eyes locked on mine, a mixture of malice and lust burning in them."Stop”,I said.Alex's gaze didn't waver as he closed the distance between us, his breath trailing behind her ear. "Now we will push the limits of our agreement." His words sent a chill down my spine, a mixture of fear and excitement. "What? This is a breach of contract! I didn't sign up for this"Part of me wanted to resist, get away and escape this growing situation. But another part of me didn't want to. As he approached, his lips almost touching mine, I gave him a powerful push, the force of the push almost making him lose balance."I'm not surprised.”It's obvious you still have feelings for Jaxon”,he spat"Of course you shouldn't,
I quickly put on the dress and walked out of the room, scanning the area for Alex . My eyes caught him in the corner with a drink in hand, smiling at a brunette…..some things never do change. I didn't care,he could drink with all the brunettes in this world and it still wouldn't bother me. I rushed towards him, then planted a fake smile on my lips. "Woman, you took too long." "Don't call me that." I started "It won't change the fact that you are." I rolled my eyes, then took a sip from a glass. "Drinking vodka? Okay," Alex reached out and then took the glass from me. "But my wife can't drink in a club." » "Are you kidding me? What should your wife drink then? » "Something without alcohol.”"You don't think you're sane enough to make your wife want to drink alcohol in the first place?" I said trying to provoke him"I know thinking about me so much is giving you a headache... maybe you can try doing something else to calm it down." He threw the glass on the t
……..My heart stopped. As I thought of all the things I had gone through just to gain my freedom from Alex. Somehow Jaxon had been able to get me out of that unholy arrangement with Alex but this too had come with a price ……if I could endure Alex, Jaxon would be much easier as he and I had history even though I told everyone I had no feelings for him.I was jolted back to reality when I heard the door open and it was Jaxon. He smiled and asked if I was still having the headache and I nodded."You should rest if your headache persists,” and walked out shutting the door gently.It was reassuring to see that he was finally there for me,true but I didn't see Jaxon in the light of someone who I could still trust.Letting out a deep sigh, I rested my head on the pillow and finally dozed off.*** Ayla,can you hear me?I opened my eyes and there he was lying down close to me half naked."W-what are you doing here? Why are you in your boxers? I hope you aren't having thoughts of anything hap
"You look great," Alex said, pulling me towards him. I couldn't help but blush a little at his compliment."Thanks," I said as I sat down. “So why are you here” I asked again. "Like I said, a guy will do whatever it takes to get what he wants." "Why?" Is something wrong? And Jaxon? Or is this some kind of setup by Jaxon? “Jaxon can't afford my price. Let's talk about you...how have you bbeen enjoying your new status?” My eyes widened in surprise. I don't remember saying I signed a prenup. "How do you know?" I don't remember ever saying that to anyone."Let's order something to eat, okay?" i'm hungry, he said. What's going on?" I said standing up"Why are you so suspicious all of a sudden?" He asked. "Well, you don't expect me to trust you again after everything,do you?" I asked him. Alex's face contorted in confusion. He pounded his fist on the table, stood up,ran a hand through his hair and shook his head. “I'm sorry” he said ….and I was taken aback by the hon
Jaxon's sudden use of the word "love" surprised me. It was the first time he used such an endearment and even though I was pissed at him I kinda felt nice hearing him say it.I will be going for a conference next week…..are you talking to me? I stammered, as I realized that Jaxon had been staring at me the whole time. Jaxon’s mouth formed a slight smile, but a hint of sadness shone in his eyes.Before I could ask what the issue was, a waiter came to take our food orders. I quickly looked at the menu, trying to distract myself from the strong emotions that came over me. Jaxon looked lost in thought as he subconsciously decided on what to eat.As we waited for our meal, I found myself stealing glances at Jaxon . It was impossible to resist the charm he exuded with his strong jaw, intense gaze and mysterious aura. Although the situation that brought us together was difficult, there was a strong bond between us. Jaxon leaned back in his seat, looking me straight in the eye. “I
