Arabella. I’ve felt this before. This heart-racing, breath-stopping body-numbing sensation. The moment when your whole world has been ripped away from you and you’re suddenly falling, knowing there’s nothing at the bottom to catch you. Save you. Feeling like the whole breath inside you has been kno
I moved to the side and he took a step sideways too, he wouldn’t stop no matter how many times I glared or yelled at him to stop pulling attention to us. Some people were already glancing our way including his grandfather and I hate to know that Ashton would see us in this position and assume the wo
Arabella. Ashton angrily dragged me to the car, he was aggressive but tried not to show it since we were still at the party ground. He led me to the front of the building as we waited for his driver, minutes later the car parked in front of us. I stepped in before him and without another word, th
Gosh, it has been a rollercoaster night, and just when I thought I could have a little peaceful time Ashton wanted a fight. “Don’t turn this on me Arabella, this isn’t about me.” He snapped. “Really? Then what’s it about?” “It’s about you and that damn grandson of Mr Castillo. I saw the way he wa
Arabella. I looked at the bed we share as husband and wife then at my husband who acts impassively. “Ashton….” The whole look on his face made every word I intended to say go back in. Right now I was scared, scared of what he would do if I didn’t do as he’d said. I wasn’t going to disobey him(I w
Arabella. The bright sunlight from the windows peered into the room, I groaned and touched the other side of the bed hoping to feel my husband's skin again after such a long time. My eyes snapped open when I found it empty, I blinked and looked around but there wasn’t any sight of Ashton anywhere.
Arabella. After saying that the whole place went silent, Lily and her mother stopped eating while Ashton glared at me. “What did you just say?” He asked, with blazing eyes. I opened my mouth but no words came out, the courage I had had suddenly disappeared. “Repeat what you just fucking said Ara
Alejandro. The universe really has a way of fucking you up. It has a way of playing with your emotions, bringing you down, and making you feel unwanted only to have someone you love slipping away from your fucking hands. The universe has a way of fucking with you, it can give you love and happines
“Nothing much apart from trying to find out what your girlfriend's problem is.” Mom answered, causing me to look at her. With narrowed eyes, I asked, “What happened?” “She’s being a bitch brother.” Lily chipped in. “What?” “Yes, she’s acting like she owns the house whenever you are out knowing w
Ashton. Work was hectic, and getting home was worse. My week had started badly—by getting officially divorced—and it ended up being worse. I haven’t been able to concentrate for the whole day and if it wasn't for the help of my secretary I would have signed a million dollar deal with a rival compa
Alejandro. These past few days have been hell for me and for everyone around me, they know they shouldn’t say or act like a fool when I’m like this. I tried so hard to focus on business and get my head straight but instead, I waged a war with another small group in town. I haven’t done something
Arabella. Everything was finalized. My lawyer made sure everything went smoothly and now I can officially say that I’m divorced. I had a breakdown, crying myself to sleep while staring at the papers but after a while, I was able to stop, I even had a little party about the divorce. It still feels
Arabella. I didn’t know what to feel as I stared at the divorce papers; should I be relieved, hurt, or upset that he finally signed? My emotions were in a fucking mess and I couldn’t control it, my eyes stings and I know I was going to cry soon because my sight became blurry but I can’t. I felt to
Arabella. “At least I’m not the one who whored herself to a married man.” I smirked seeing the way her face dropped. She no longer had that smug look on her face and neither was she smiling. Good. “You don’t get to preach to me why I shouldn’t be happy or not when you are not happy, bitch. You sl
Arabella. It has been three days and I haven’t seen nor spoken to Alejandro—well I have been avoiding him. I planned on doing that until he got the message that I did not want anything to do with him and his violent world again. In those three days I took a long time planning my life, I wanted it
Ashton. I left the house after making sure Sandra was out in her place, looking back at everything I said to her the only thing I can say is that she deserved it. She shouldn’t think I would give her princess treatment because she is pregnant with my child—the same child I have doubts if it’s mine
She rolled her eyes and sat up, “You don’t intimidate me, Ashton. I’m not like your weak and defenseless ex-wife who does as you say. I am not going into that kitchen and that’s final.” She said and I ground my teeth together when she mentioned Arabella. I took a step forward, “You are nothing lik
