I stood before him, trembling on my feet, my voice quivering as I mustered the courage to speak.
"I-I... I have an allergy to olives. I just cooked all of these for your dinner," I managed to say, but I could still feel the weight of nervousness in his piercing gaze.
In that moment, I felt small and vulnerable, like a child afraid of making a mistake in front of a stern parent. Despite my longing to express myself freely, fear held my words captive. I felt more isolated than a deaf person, unable to utter even the simplest sound.
But he responded with a torrent of anger, as if I were not standing before him. His words crashed upon me like waves, lashing out at my existence. "I don't fvckin' care if you have allergies or what! All I want is for you to finish everything on that table! I already told you that I hate wasting money and cooking too much food

Exelle "You..." I stare at him, shocked and nervous that he might actually discover that I am his ex-wife, Xiellenna, at this very moment. But, of course, I won't let myself be caught. Not like this. Not this easily. I won't. "You must be kidding me, right?" I whisper, mustering the strength that I had lost a while ago. Damn it, Exelle! Don't let yourself get caught so easily! Think of ways to escape this situation, damn it! Of course, I have to, or all of my hardships to come this far would be in vain and meaningless. And yes, he may have caught me off guard like this, but he can't bring down my defenses that easily. Maybe I faltered, but I am not the old me. I'm not the old Xiellenna anymore. "I am Exelle Kim." His face remains unchanged. My words don't even faze him easily. "Yes. This scar was caused by a burn, but not from a hot iron. It's f

Exelle I kept my gaze fixed on the papers scattered across my desk, while Lex paced back and forth in front of me. He continued to warn me about the risks I was taking by dealing with Hans. His words, filled with caution and concern, repeated like a broken record. It was as if he was the parent scolding a wayward child. I couldn't help but enjoy his annoyance, though I pretended to ignore him. "Xiellenna, you're putting yourself at risk. You know how dangerous Hans is," Lex emphasized, finally coming to a halt. He leaned over my desk, placing his hands firmly on the surface, and directed his full attention towards me. Responding playfully, I pouted my lips like a mischievous child. I propped my elbows on the desk, resting my chin on the back of my hand. With a mischievous smile, I met Lex's gaze. There was something endearing about his irritation. He looked rather adorable in that state. A

Exelle "Hello there, Miss Lux," I greeted her, forcing a smile upon my face. She returned the smile, but it was evident that it was forced. I could easily discern that she was merely acting friendly in my presence, something I had grown accustomed to recognizing. Becoming Exelle Kim and undergoing personal transformations had not been in vain; I still struggled to decipher people's true intentions. My journey to this point of unwavering determination had not allowed room for naivety. I had changed for the better, albeit with a degree of risk involved. Embarking on a path that originated from emotions I believed I would never experience—hatred. "Hello, M-Miss Kim," she stuttered, flashing another forced smile, before her gaze shifted behind me. "And, Alexis." My left eyebrow arched involuntarily upon hearing her falter. "Sorry about what you just saw earlier. I hope i

Exelle I knew deep down that all of this was just an act, a façade carefully constructed to deceive. Yet, in this very moment, being with him made me question what I truly desired. His touch, his kisses, and every intimate gesture ignited a longing within me. It was a dangerous dance on the precipice of temptation, for I was well aware that we were only friends, and that was the limit to our connection. "No," I whispered, my voice barely audible. It should have been restricted, confined within the boundaries we set, but something within me rebelled against such limitations. The acting, though seemingly excessive, had taken on a life of its own. My body refused to release the grip on these stolen moments. Stepping outside the established boundaries and allowing him to trespass upon forbidden territory were two distinct actions, and yet, the lines between us seemed to blur, erasing any semblance of constraint as we

Exelle As I sat in my office, the weight of recent events heavy on my mind, I couldn't help but feel a sense of unease. Nothing happened, or so I told myself. But deep down, I knew there was more than just an act between Lex and me. Sam, my ever-observant friend, could see through my facade. "You can't fool me, Xielle," she declared, her gaze fixed on me. "There's something going on between the two of you. You can't deceive me." I couldn't deny it any longer; Sam suspected that Lex and I had crossed a line, but the truth was, nothing had truly happened. Defeated, I admitted, "Okay, fine. It's close to that situation, but we only kissed." I hoped that my confession would appease Sam's growing suspicion. "Kissed? Just kissed?" Sam's voice was filled with disbelief and reproach. "You expect me to believe that you only kissed on your bed until you got tired? Seriously, Xielle, you're too weak! You're getting older, and you shouldn't have played hard to get with Alexis." Her words stu

Exelle I found myself staring at Hans, who stood tall in the center of the room we occupied. Words failed to escape my lips, causing his smile to linger. His gaze bore into me, intensifying my nervousness and evoking a sense of fear. Silently, I locked eyes with him, while Sam did the same. "What the hell are you doing here, Mr. Alvez?" Sam asked Hans firmly, but his response came in the form of a laugh. He laughed as if he had won a game. A demon reveling in victory. A game? It felt more like I was the one orchestrating the play, so why should he be the one declared the winner? I wouldn't allow that. "Ms. Exelle Kim," Hans began, briefly bowing before continuing, "I mean, wife. Now that I've witnessed your reaction to those articles and seen you living with your best friend, Samara, in our former house, perhaps I cannot be mistaken in believing that you are indeed my wife, Xiellenna." I know, right. Seeing is believing. I felt caught red-handed, as if I were a criminal myself

ExelleJules had left some time ago, and I found myself back at work in the comfort of my home office. It was where I felt most at ease, being able to tackle my tasks within the familiar walls of my own house. Besides, there was really no other suitable place for me to set up my work in the Philippines, apart from this very residence.Earlier, I had extended an invitation to Jules, hoping she would join me and Samara for dinner. However, she kindly declined, explaining that she already had plans for a dinner date with Milo. It brought a smile to my face, knowing that they had found someone who brought happiness and completion to their lives.After diligently reading through stacks of papers and signing my name on numerous documents, I finally rose from the plush recliner chair that had provided me solace. I stepped out of my office and into the hallway, its emptiness surrounding me. Yet, there was none of the eerie a

Exelle.."The materials were all of good quality, as well as the workers themselves. It's no wonder the building was almost halfway complete," Mrs. Holland chuckled, her eyes twinkling with satisfaction."You're right, Mrs. Holland. The architectural design may not be grand, but it has a unique appeal. Looking at it, one can't help but find it pleasing to the eye," Mr. Mendrano commented, his gaze scanning the unfinished structure before us. "I can't wait to see the complete picture once the project is finished."The other board members seemed equally pleased, their expressions mirroring Mrs. Holland's sentiment towards the project. It was evident that they were all eagerly looking forward to the finished product of the hotel.Of course, I had deliberately chosen to collaborate with the number one construction company known worldwide. EXiellenne Royale was fortunate

ExelleI looked at my hands, which were tied with nylon rope, before glancing at Alexis, who was silently standing in front of me. I saw how he clenched his hands into fists.At the same time, he turned to look at Rylie, who still remained unconscious."Take her to the gallery," Alexis said, and the newcomer immediately followed the order.I didn’t say anything and just relaxed my body, while still pointing the gun in their direction, ignoring the fact that Rylie was being carried out of the place. I secretly glanced behind me to check the area, and I was relieved to see another door leading out of the hallway.My eyes then shifted to the round window in the door, which was just to my left. The window, made of clear glass, made it easier for me to see the transparent glass window in the rectangular frame inside the room, which offered a clear view

ExelleI huffed for a moment before glaring at the two bastards standing side by side at the doorway.I didn’t struggle to escape, but my mind was awake enough to function and think of the things I needed to do.Although it’s no use doing it now, I calmed myself and let them do whatever they wanted. I felt tired, but honestly, I was just waiting for the right timing, a chance where I could fight them more freely and escape from their grasp. I don’t believe that there’s no escape in the middle of the sea, unless the chances of surviving are too slim to be possible.‘I still have Dark.’‘Yes. I still have him.’‘And I trust him.’I kept reminding myself that this would all be over soon. That’s actually the purpose of those words. It&rsq

THIRD PERSON'S POV...The red dot on Techno's monitor flickered. Dark watched it with a furrowed brow as he continued giving orders to his team. But his heart skipped a beat when the red dot, which represented Exelle's location, suddenly started to move."What's happening?" Dark dashed over to Techno's station and asked him, who continued typing rapidly on his keyboard."The PH-HQ must have figured out what's going on," Techno replied, and as if on cue, a radio connected to the other team crackled to life.There was a long silence before a muffled voice came through the radio. It was Bern, Bernardino Morales, the leader of the NCI Philippine HQ team."This is Alpha B of PH-HQ, reporting. The target is on the move. We can only watch from the sidelines until your men arrive because they outnumber our team," Bern reported from the other end. He pa

Exelle...When I opened my eyes, I saw a figure of a man sitting in front of me. But upon recognizing who it was, I frowned and shot him a hateful glare."You f*ckin' bastard!" I yelled at him, but he didn't respond.I tried moving my body, only to discover that my wrists were tied behind me. As I struggled, the metal shackles on my ankles and wrists clanged noisily against the cold cement floor.I groaned as pain shot through my wrists from the struggle. It infuriated me so much that I didn't even think about the danger I was in because my anger at seeing his face took over. I anxiously looked around, realizing we were in a room with no windows, just a door, and a large mirror on one wall.It was the kind of room you often see in dramas and movies. The one that looks like an interrogation room."Don't waste your time struggling. You won't escape from

Exelle..."So, are you telling Xiellenna? Those things that you've heard and seen?" Rylie's voice pierced my ears. Her tone was so arrogant that it made me want to run over and yank her hair off her head.She's infuriating me, but honestly, I have no idea what's going on.Because everything around me is darkness. As I opened my eyes while listening to the strange noise around me that I couldn’t explain, all I could see was endless darkness.It was so cold and eerie.It was also so quiet, yet every now and then, I would hear a sound spreading around me. The noise echoed and lingered until it faded into the distance, only to be followed by another unknown sound. It repeated over and over again.At first, it was like the drip of water, then the sound of someone being slapped, followed by something breaking, and then something hard falling. The mi

Third Person's PoV---Dark's gaze remained fixed on the sleeping figure of Exelle. He watched the young woman as he stood by the side of her bed. Behind him was Audrey, nervously biting her lips."I shouldn't have given her that video," Dark's ears twitched as he heard his cousin speak. The sadness and concern were evident in her voice as her eyes seemed to lose their strength, quietly staring at Exelle.But he just shook his head. "She still has the right to know what really happened to Samara," and that's the truth. No matter how much they tried to hide what truly happened, Exelle would find out sooner or later. Aside from the fact that the video was an irrefutable piece of evidence for Samara's death, it was also one of the few pieces of evidence they had against Riguera."We can no longer be complacent against the Black

Exelle.."Mondregal, Howard, Vanidestine, Hara, and Wang."Audrey paused in her speech when she noticed me looking at her, listening intently. I remained seated on the bed. It felt strange because she wasn’t reading from EXellene Royale, but instead, she was discussing information about the five families that govern the NCI.Audrey coughed lightly as I smiled and nodded slightly."Mondregal is the family whose NCI headquarters is currently located on Lena Islands. A Philippine-European NCI family. More importantly, this is where our family, the Ryans, work for," Audrey continued and then moved on to the next family. "Next is the South Korean Wang family. While the Mondregal NCI HQ works together with the EU Intelligence and Service Center or the EU INTCEN of the European continent and the National Intelligence Cooperating Agency of the Philippines, the Wang fami

Exelle"She's looking for Raellina," I said, taking a sip of water from the glass.Rylie is looking for her twin sister, Raellina. And as I remember from Rylie before I lost my memories when I was ten, she told me she needed a heart. But that doesn’t mean that if she had successfully killed me back then, she would have gotten what she wanted.Because if I really died when she pushed me down the stairs, she still wouldn’t have been able to use my heart for a transplant. And we were just kids back then. And currently thinking about her whereabouts, I’m not sure if Raellina is still alive."Mama, she looks like Rylie!"I remembered a vague memory of mine, back when I first saw Raellina on the Lena Islands. I thought she was Rylie back then, but my papa corrected me about it, and they even asked me to keep it a secret. During

Third Person's PoV"Wow!"The young Xiellenna exclaimed when she saw the beautiful view of an island below the clouds where their family's private plane flew over. It was a crescent-shaped island with man-made extensions, featuring a castle-like building on top of a hill, resembling a fairytale setting from storybooks."Wow~wow~wow. Mom! Dad! It has a castle on the hills!" the seven-year-old Xiellenna excitedly said again before turning around to face her smiling parents. "Oh my~look over there! Amazing.""Our baby must really like it," Lillian said before embracing her approaching child. She gently stroked her daughter's hair and gave her a kiss. Her daughter giggled and nodded."Yup, mama. Xielle really likes it. No, I mean~I really, really, really like it." Xiellenna giggled in her mother's arms. It was warm and cozy, making her feel secure and s
