YULIA

Alexander opened the car door as they reached the pet store, and Sofia surveyed the environment. If it wasn’t for the pet store, she wouldn’t think about going out. A middle-aged woman appeared by the front door as soon as Sofia and Alexander pushed the door and walked into the store.

“You are here!” The woman beamed as her gaze shifted from Alexander to Sofia. “You didn’t tell me you have a girlfriend, and I also haven’t seen you with any lady.”

“She is a friend.” Alexander muttered, and she could feel the hesitation in his voice.

“Even still…” The woman hesitated. “You never have female friends."

Sofia glanced at Alexander; he shrugged off the woman's words, brushed past her, and walked inside the store.

“Where are the pets that you need help with?” He questioned.

A cat walked closer to his feet and meowed. Alexander peered down at the car. A smile appeared on his face, and he bent down to scoop the cat into his arms. He rubbed the cat’s belly while the cat squirmed under his

    PADRINORestless, he tossed and turned in bed that night. She told him that she still loved him. He recognized the telltale signs—her slurred words and unsteady gait—confirming that she was not in her right state of mind. Alcohol had blurred her senses. After she said that, he paused and glanced back at her, but she had drifted off to sleep. He didn’t want her to love him; he was literally the last person in the world she should fall in love with.He was only going to hurt her feelings, and he knows it. The only thing he could do now was to be nice to her and make up for his past mistakes. He closed his eyes and reopened them; the sleep didn’t seem to come.The next morning, Alexander was up and, just as he had his bath, dressed in his office clothes. He quietly slipped out of his room and made his way to Yulia's, his footsteps echoing in the silent corridor. He opened the door gently and peeked at her. She had the sheets tousled around the bed and was lying on her back. The cat was l

    YULIAAfter waking up and dressing, she walked to the bed to pick up Mocha when she saw a card laying on the table. Her brows rose in confusion as she studied the card; she didn’t have a card, and she wondered how the card got to her room. Then she found the name of the owner written on it.“Alexander Dante Volkov?” She turned the card around. “Why would he give me his card?”A frown found its way to her face. She lifted Mocha into her arms and hurried out of her room. She headed straight for Alexander’s room. She turned the door knob when she got to the door, but it wouldn’t bulge.“Alexander.” She called out. “Alexander!” She banged her hand against the door. “Come out of there.”After waiting for several minutes and not getting an answer from him, she hurried towards the elevator. Soon she was downstairs, running towards the living room. The pain in her legs was no longer hurting like it was, and she glanced around the living room. There was no one in the living room, so she headed

    YULIAThe purchase of the jewelry went smoothly; she bought two rings, both for Alexander. She couldn’t stop admiring the ring as Alessandro drove back home. She wondered if Alexander would love the ring she got for him. She pushed the ring into the shopping bag and looked out the window.She had bought it with his money, after all. He was going to accept it whether he liked it or not, especially since Alessandro said Alexander does not wear birthstone rings. She couldn’t wait to see the look on his face.As soon as the car came to a halt in front of the building, she grabbed the bag and hurried inside the house without waiting for Alessandro. She rushed up the stairs, even though the stairs were farther than the elevator. It didn’t matter since she was using the stairs already.She turned the doorknob as soon as she got to the door. Inside her room, Mocha was looking at her and meowing softly.She stroked the cat. “Did you miss me?”Soon, she was pulling out the bags and inserting her

    YULIA/PADRINO“I will get your dinner upstairs; wait for me.” He said this before turning around and leaving the room.Sofia sat quietly on the bed. She glanced around her room and onto the bed. Mocha was still sleeping on the bed, and she reached for it and stroked it. The cat’s eyes opened, and it slowly climbed on Sofia’s leg. Sofia stroked the cat and waited.A few minutes later, Alexander returned with a tray filled with dishes. He placed it on the table in the room and pulled out a chair for her. She stood to her feet with Mocha in her arms and walked over to the table. He waited for her to sit before turning around to leave the room.“I bought you something.” She found herself saying: “Do you want to see it?”Alexander paused and turned around to look at her. His lips stretched into a smile. “What did you get me?”She got off the chair and headed to her bed. She placed Mocha on the bed and picked up the shopping bag. She glanced inside the bag; the ring was lying in the bag. Sh

After a few minutes of eating in silence, Sofia eventually came up with something to talk about.“Where did you go for business?"Alexander peered at her. "In Germany, I went for an exchange.”“What exchange?” She asked. “You wouldn’t want to know about it, and I am not ready to share it with you.”“That’s fine. It’s not like we know each other.”That was the truth; she knew everything she could probably know about Alexander, but now that he had changed, She wondered if she knew anything about him.“Yeah.” He agreed. “You know a lot about me, but I don’t. Alessandro knows a lot about you; how come you both were friends?”She shrugged before answering. “We met in college; we were course mates and partners, and we were practically neighbors since we didn’t live in the college dorms.”"Interesting. How happy were you then that you were friends with my brother?”She shot him a glare, but on second thought, the gl

    YULIAShe could hear their voices as she asked down the stairs, holding an empty tray. Two similar dark hairs were sitting opposite each other at the dining table. They were talking about something, but she couldn’t hear what they were saying properly. It was like they were whispering; she couldn’t hear. Things they were saying.Alessandro was the first to raise his head to glance at her when he had just been handing over the tray to a maid. She glanced at them, and Alexander stared at her.“Would you just stand there and look at us?” Alexander asked.“No.” She replied, “I’m going to the room.”She had avoided calling it her room; it was just a room they kept her in.“If you say so.” Alessandro muttered.She went back upstairs without knowing what to do there.The next morning, when she woke up, there was no one in the house except her. She wondered where they had left; no one had told her anything before leaving. Her brows furrowed as she made her way downstairs after a long time in

    PADRINO Alessandro raised his brow at Alexander immediately after he heard Sofia's words. Alexander's brows creased as he stared at her. He closed the door and walked over to the other side. He sat in front of the sterling and glanced at Alessandro."You can drive in that, right?""Yeah," Alessandro replied.Alexander closed the car door and ignited the engine. He drove off and headed home. Yulia didn't say anything about the drive, and Alexander had nothing to say either.On getting home, Alexander parked the car, and before he could step out to open the door for Yulia, She had already stepped out of the car."I will get changed." She murmured before hurrying into the house.Alexander walked behind her and watched her climb the stairs. He entered his room and took his seat in front of his large monitor. He wondered what had happened in Yulia's past; he wanted to ask her, but she was still not ready to speak about it. She had mentioned that her sister was the one who made her father

He had been so nice to her all these few days because he was feeling guilty about what he did.“You don’t have to remind me.” She scoffed.“Well, you also

    “Are you sure that she is going to do as you said?” Ryker asked as he helped her out on the lip gloss combo.“Yes, she looked mad that day. I am sure that she would do exactly as I said.”As surprising as it sounds, Ryker was here as a makeup artist for her wedding. She was on the other side of the church, doing her makeup.The wedding was already starting, and in less than five minutes, she was going to be called to the congregation. Her face flushed; she couldn't believe that she was going to get married to Alexander.“Stop turning red.” Ryker ordered. “I might mess up your blush.”Solia glanced at the mirror; her lips curled into a smile as she stared at her reflection.“You are looking for pretty.” Ryker complimented. “As much as I hate this wedding, I can't say a thing about it.”Solia chuckled. “Don't worry, Ryker, you are going to find someone you love later.”He forced a thin smile. “Right.” He wondered if she had no idea that he was in love with her. He shook off the thoughts

    “I didn't tell you, but the engagement is today,” Alexander announced this as soon as she sat down with Mocha on her lap.It had been a day since they came back from the hospital. Solia was getting used to waking up and sleeping in her body. She also had sessions with the therapist.Alexander didn't even tell her anything about the engagement beforehand, and now he is just telling her.“What?” She yelled, her eyes widening in surprise. “Did Gramps say that?”Alexander nodded his head. "Yes, he did; he was worried that I did something to you and made you break up our engagement. So he is making it earlier; also, our wedding is in two days.”“What the hell?” Solia bawled. “That's too fast; how can we get engaged and get married in two days?”He arched his brows at her. “Are you that resistant to getting married?”She shook her head. “Don't you think it is too soon?”“It's not. He insisted. “We are meant for each other.”He leaned in closer to her before placing his hand on the bed, trap

  • HE PURCHASED A NIGHTMARE   CHAPTER 87_Which One Stayed?

    Alexander and Alessandro waited patiently in the VIP section of the hospital. They were both standing and pacing instead of sitting.Alexander was feeling sweaty, although there were air conditioners in the room. He wasn't worried about who would stay; he was only worried about her.Alessandro, on the other hand, was praying for Yulia to be the one to stay because he knew that he could never tolerate Solia. They were cat and mouse when it came to living together.Alessandro had already made up his mind to leave his brother's mansion if Solia stayed. That was the right choice; he was going to leave.Alexander kept on pacing when they arrived. The doctor had warned that when the treatment was going on, they could lose, but Yulia and Solia and another personality were going to appear.Alexander didn't let Alessandro know about it, but when he asked Solia about it, She said that she was willing to take the risk, and that's why he let her go.Sighing, he kept on waiting, his eyes glued to

    Solia sat at the dining table; everyone who left for the mission was around the table. She didn't have an idea what they did to the rest of them outside, but she heard about it from Alessandro.He told her everything that happened, including how they fought with the bad guys and rescued the ladies.Solia also noticed that Rosa and Rose are getting over their differences. Everyone was glad that the mission had been successful, but Solia was worried. Yulia should have been out now, but she was nowhere to be found.She couldn't even feel her.It was like if she disappeared into the thin air, wanting to disappear from everything that she had always thought was right or the truth.Others didn't seem to care that she wasn't Yulia. They spoke to her just like they did to Yulia; she felt at home and enjoyed their company.One person who didn't seem to be enjoying dinner was Alexander. He would keep glancing her way and checking if she was alright.Her cheeks flushed; he was a prince charming,

    That voice made Adora increase her pacing, but it was too late. Solia grabbed her by the hair and shoved her back towards the table.The force was so strong that Adora bagels against the table. Adora went quiet for a while, and that only made Solia chuckle.“I am getting revenge for Yulia, and what I have done is not enough for the betrayal you gave her.”Solia reached for Adora's legs and grabbed them. Adora tried to pull the table, but her fingers weren't working. Wincing, she let herself be pulled back by Solia.Solia was more focused on breaking the legs; if she could do that, Adora was going to have no choice but to crawl out of the room with her.She walked around the room and searched for anything in the drawers. Then she came across a hammer. She smirked. That was going to do.She held the hammer in her hand and walked back to Adora, who was backing away and at the same time bawling. Luck was not on her side because Solia broke her ankles with a wide grin on her face.“I can e

    Trigger Warning: This chapter contains torture, murder, and abuse.**Adora continued to strangle her, her eyes filled with hatred and anger. Just when she thought that she had successfully strangled her daughter,Solia grabbed the woman's hand, raised her leg, and kicked the woman in the belly. The force of the kick was so strong that Adora released her neck.Solia pulled herself up and kicked the woman again. “How dare you hurt Yulia?” She bellowed.Adora trembled as she stared up at Solia. She couldn't believe that her daughter could be that strong after all that she said.Solia worked her way out of the rope that was tied to her wrist. She held the rope in her hand, evil thoughts running through her head.She had heard all of the things that the woman said to Yulia. It was then that Solia knew that Adora didn't deserve to be a mother.“Are you deaf?” Solia yelled as she lunged at the woman.Adora was too stunned to speak; she pulled out a gun. Solia was fast enough to kick the gu

    Yulia peered up at the woman, who was holding a bucket. It was she who drenched Yulia; she didn't care about it, though. She had found her mother and was glad her mother was alright.However, she couldn't tell why her mother had a different color of eyes. She remembered that both of them were green.“What did she say?” The man, whom Yulia assumed to be Jake, was questioned.“She said she wants to go back home.” The woman said this as she squatted.Yulia rose herself off the ground; her mother didn't seem to recognize her. She turned her head to look at Jake; he was older than his picture.She sat still while her mother scrutinized her, tears welling up in her eyes. The woman that she thought was dead was alive all along.Yulia's eyes pierced her mother's, and she wondered if her mother recognized her.“She is a unique one.” The woman muttered as she rose to her feet. “Let's keep her.”Yulia's gaze followed her mother as she walked towards where Jake was and took her seat next to him.

    “This is it; I will be the one to let myself get caught, and you all will know your position." Yulia ordered.A few FBI agents and the mafia were in the large office as she spoke. The FBI had decided to work with the Mafia to catch Jake. Although it was hard for them to stay in the same room, especially the ladies,.The FBI women criticize the Mafia women for drowning themselves in cigarettes and tattoos. The FBI smokes, too.Currently, just as Yulia was speaking, an FBI agent and a mafia lady were arguing.The men ignored them; they could fight all they wanted. As long as they could find Jake. Everyone needed him for one thing or another. Yulia wanted to find her mother.That was the reason she wanted to let herself get caught.“Are you going to pick two more ladies to make it convincing?” Ryker suggested. “If you go with two more ladies, I can be calm because you're not there alone.”Yulia glanced at the ladies in the room and shook her head. She was better off without them; they mi

    They all sat over the large table, each of them sitting on a chair. Yulia was sitting in between Ryker and Alexander. Alessandro and Denise were sitting on the other side.The atmosphere was awkward.After she admitted that she killed the old lady and the man, Ryker looked mad; instead of attacking her, he lunged at Alexander, and the both of them got into a furious fight.It took so much willpower to separate them. Although they were home now, the men were surely glaring at each other. Alexander had a bandage on his right cheek, while Ryker had one on his left cheek.“Princess, you went out and brought him another best friend. Am I not good enough for you?” Alessandro demanded, breaking the silence just as he had broken the pen in his hand.Yulia stared at Alessandro; he had an annoyed expression on his face. “Not you too.”“Where was he when I was helping you in college? He wasn't even there when you needed him the most."Alessandro muttered. “And he is a cop; I hate cops.”“I'm not
