(Freya's POV)I growled in annoyance as I removed the man's hand from my shoulder. And I almost swayed backward if I didn't have him holding me again. But I immediately dismissed it."No, stop touching me," I protested. I held on to the wall because my head felt dizzy and spinning while my stomach felt so nauseous and I wanted to vomit.I knew I had drunk too much and I shouldn't have done it, especially since I went out alone. But I want to get drunk and forget all my problems even if only for a moment.“Relax, sweetie. I know you're drunk and can't stand straight," he touched my arm again. Pulling me closer to him. “Let me help you, beautiful.”My body shivered when he rubbed my exposed back because I was only wearing a sleeveless blouse with a slit in the front and back. I tried to dodge with all the strength I had, but the man's grip was so strong and tight.“Ugh, let go of me. Don't bother me," I protested. I growled again while pushing the man's body, but he actually hugged me s
(Ash's POV)"Impossible," I swore softly as I was about to go to the restroom and I accidentally saw a woman with a man. It's more like the man is trying to kiss her forcefully. What angered and disbelieved me more was that the woman's face was so similar to Freya's.Both my hands were clenched tightly with my overflowing anger as Freya screamed in protest while that crazy bastard had dared to kiss her relentlessly. I ran quickly and pulled her body backward until it hit the wall."Fuck!" I yelled harshly. I smashed his face so many times that he whimpered in pain. I kicked him in the stomach and threw him out of there. He ran away scared with a cut on his face."What have you done here, huh?!" I snapped angrily. My red eyes stared intently at me while my hands gripped Freya's arms so tightly.I thought I had seen her before and felt that I had had too much to drink. But I had no idea that it was really Freya who was being harassed by a man and almost raped. Seeing her treated like th
(Freya's POV)I groaned as I woke up, blinked and I felt my whole body ache. My head throbbed like I had been hit by a big hammer and caused pain and dizziness that made Sara wince in pain.When I tried to open my eyes wider, I was shocked when I realized the ceiling of the room felt unfamiliar to me. Even when I tried to get up and it turned out I wasn't wearing any clothes at all under the blanket covering my body.Surprise jolted me from the pain assaulting my head. My eyes widened in surprise when Ash's sturdy and strong arms wrapped around my stomach while he was still fast asleep next to me.My mouth opened. I covered him with the palm of my hand, in shock and disbelief when I saw the scratch marks on his back and our messy condition like this.This is impossible!How did I end up sleeping with Ash? What really happened? I stared in disbelief at what I had seen. I was in Ash's room and had sex with him?A silence so disturbing that I have never felt in my life. I kept trying to
(Freya's POV)“Forgetting everything that happened?” he frowned with an annoyed expression. His hands clenched into fists."Yes. It was all just a mistake that happened because we were drunk. So…"“So you want to run away and not take responsibility?” he asked, interrupting my words. He approached me and grabbed my hand, nailing my body in the cold with his explosive anger.I was surprised when he pressed his body against mine. I could feel his heart beating so crazy when my palm pressed against his chest.“Ash, what are you doing… let go of me,” I growled in protest. I didn't dare look him in the eye. Ash roughly grabbed my chin and forced me to look at him.“Stare at the person you're talking to when you're talking, Freya,” he growled, “you have a bad habit that annoys me.”“Ash, stop,” I protested. I grabbed his arm with my one free hand because my other hand was nailed to the wall with his arm holding it so tightly.“Stop what?” he asked irritably. His eyes flashed sharply. "You t
(Freya's POV)"I miss you..." He hugged me tightly and I tried to let go."Enough, Ash. don't talk nonsense anymore," I said while pushing his body as hard as I could. But I couldn't because his strength was so strong. "Ash, please think clearly!" I shouted hysterically.I pushed Ash's body and he let go of me with disappointment on his face. I was also disappointed and hurt by Ash's ever-changing attitude and I felt that what Ash did only made me indecisive and confused. And I didn't want to feel that way because it made my heart uneasy.The air around me felt heavy, filled with tension that made me almost unable to breathe. My chest and I feel like every second passes like an hour."Freya..." he reaches out to touch my arm and I swat him away roughly."I've had enough of your games," I said firmly, my voice trying to be steady despite the emotions raging inside.Ash stood in front of me, his eyes filled with regret and perhaps a hint of hope. I can still see how his face is trying t
(Ash’s POV)“Fuck!” I cursed so loudly while hitting the wall when I saw Freya come out walking away from my apartment. My feelings were raging violently. “Fuck!” I cursed again as if those harsh words could quell the fire burning in my chest. But the truth is, nothing can ease this chaos.I feel so angry and disappointed with everything that has happened. I feel so confused about the feelings I feel right now. My desire to be closer to Freya drives me crazy. The feeling grew more and more every time and became bigger until it was difficult for me to bear.The desire to keep seeing her, the jealousy when I saw her with another man, and my greed for wanting Freya only to be mine.I clenched my fists, feeling my nails dig into my palms. I know she still loves me, there's something in her gaze that tells me that. But every time she pulled away, and rejected me, it was like a knife to my self-esteem. And ironically, the further away she got, the stronger my desire to get her, at any cost,
(Freya's POV)My eyes widened in surprise when I arrived at Hazel and Violet's school and I saw Ash with them. He held my daughter's hand as if he was going to take them away.With panic and anxiety attacking me, I immediately got out of the car and ran towards them with my anger exploding. I felt so scared and pulled Hazel and Violet into my arms.“You… bastard, Ash,” I hissed, “what are you planning to do to my Daughters?”I glared at him. I don't know what he wants to do, he shouldn't bother my daughters like this. Whatever the problem with me, I felt very angry that Ash dared to bother Hazel and Violet, let alone approach them at school like this."I'm not planning anything," Ash said in a calm manner."Then why did you come here and meet my daughters?!" I shouted angrily. I tightened my grip on Hazel and Violet's bodies.“Mom, what's wrong? Why are you like this?” Hazel asked. The expression on her face was frightened when she saw me angry.I swallowed my saliva hard and looked a
(Freya's POV)While in the car I felt so angry. When we reached the yard, I slammed the door as I got out of the car. Hazel and Violet who saw me felt scared and anxious. I glanced at them who were holding one doll each in their hands."Where did you get that doll?" I asked. I just realized they were carrying dolls."Handsome uncle gave it to us," Hazel answered.I rubbed my face with mixed feelings. I don't know the reason why Ash did this to my children, but I really felt angry.I knelt in front of Hazel and Volet and held their shoulders. “Didn't I tell you guys not to get close to him? Even if he came to meet you, you should ignore him and contact me directly,” I said with a hint of anger in my tone as I spoke."But, that uncle didn't do anything bad..."“...That uncle even bought us dolls,” continued Violet, her voice sounding hesitant.I stared at them deeply, trying to suppress the emotions raging inside me. They didn't know anything about Ash's past, about how he had ruined my
