(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
(Freya's POV)I fell silent, unable to answer. My mind is heartfelt with chaos. Feelings of hatred, hurt, and frustration mixed together in my chest. How could he still dare talk about work after all this?"We have to come there to check and take care of ongoing projects," he continued in a serious tone. “You can't run away from work, Freya. If you still have a professional attitude, you will come.”I clenched my fists, trying to contain the burning anger inside me. “I didn't have to come with you,” I said, my voice sharper than I intended."But you have to, Freya," he replied firmly. There is no room for compromise in his voice. He had already decided, and for him, I had no other choice.I was about to open my mouth to reply when my office door was knocked, then opened slowly. Henry appeared in the doorway, his eyes immediately narrowed when he saw Ash standing over me. His face hardened, clearly showing deep dissatisfaction and worry. Henry knows who Ash is, and he knows how much it
(Freya's POV)“Ree, please look after Hazel and Violet while I'm gone,” I said to Reece. I felt a little uneasy because this was the first time I had left Hazel and Violet for a long time. I'm afraid something bad will happen to them, but I'm sure Reece can look after them well."Don't worry. I will look after them,” Reece said as she hugged me tightly. “They are safe with me, Freya.”"Thank You. I'll leave them to you." I smiled, feeling a little relieved.I looked at Hazel and Violet who were standing next to Reece, holding the dolls that Ash had given them. Previously I had told them to keep the doll, but they protested and said that they liked it.“Hazel, Volet, and Mommy went on a business trip for a few days. You guys will be with Reece for a while. Don't cause trouble. Listen to what she says; understand?” I knelt before them.“We understand, Mom,” they answered with a nod. I hugged them before I actually left. I had previously asked Ash to wait for me at the airport and it was
(Ash’s POV)"What's this?" Freya asked when she saw me open the door to the only hotel room I booked.“There are no more rooms leftー”"Then why didn't you tell me first?!" she snapped angrily. She shook her head in annoyance. "That's enough. I will look for another hotel. You can stay here if you want..." she said as she dragged her suitcase towards the elevator.I immediately confronted Freya quickly. I held her hand tightly. she immediately glanced at me sharply."Let go of me, Ash!" she shouted.“Listen to me first…”“Listen to what?!” she shouted, cutting me off. “You should have told me that there were no other empty rooms here. We can look for another hotel that provides two rooms for us. And you just took a room for us to sleep in without asking my opinion first?!" she snapped. she glared at me sharply."Freya, I beg you. It's not what you think. This hotel is our sponsor, and they're completely out of rooms. We have no other choice."Freya didn't budge. "We could just find ano
