CAMILLAMy head was in such great pain when I woke up. I sat up and allowed the discomfort to gradually subside, though I suppose this is not how it will go away.How much did I drink yesterday? Can't count... This is Aubrey's fault.I groaned as I forced myself to open my eyes and looked around me.
CAMILLAAs I got out of the taxi, the sun was blazing down on me and I could see the building that I assumed Leslie lived in. Through my co-workers, I got her address and her apartment number.Despite Nikolai's prior warning that I shouldn't see Leslie again, I couldn't sleep last night, thinking of
CAMILLAI jolted in front of Nikolai before everything went awry. "N-No. p-please..." But he's not looking at me. His raging eyes remained fixated on Leslie.No... He will never, ever pull the trigger. But it feels like I can't trust my instincts after seeing him now.I block his view by blocking th
CAMILLABoth the seat next to Matteo and the seat next to Nikolai are empty.Then...I will take a seat next to Mat-- However, Aubrey is quicker than my feet and slams her body on the chair beside Matteo with a grin plastered on her face.Damn, this woman.I turn to face Nikolai, who is leaning cal
CAMILLAMy brows furrowed at his abrupt comment about absurd things because I had no idea what he meant when he said that I was collecting stamps."What are you saying?"His eyes were filled with affection as he gazed at me. We were alone in the room together, and it felt strange to have those eyes
CAMILLAAlyssa's heels were giving her difficulties in the sand, but she was grinning as she hurried to see Nikolai.Who would wear high heels on the beach?"Nikolai~ do you miss me?"I acted like throwing up and caught Aubrey doing the same. We both laughed and proceeded to double-murder the meat.
NIKOLAII stayed in my room after that lame game outside. I asked for another room key after lying that I lost the other one. But after upsetting Camilla, I'm not sure if she'll sleep here tonight.I run my fingers through my hair, fury rising within me at Camilla's response that she fell in love wi
CAMILLAWhile the rest of them were having a good time in the hotel's bar, I sat by the seaside, feeling as sentimental as fuck, thinking about things that we could no longer control.It was getting chaotic inside, so I decided to be alone with my beer again. I can't even begin to count how many can
CAMILLAI tied my hair as I made my way downstairs. Nikolai had already left for work while Miko and Mika were having a summer vacation. Miko just turned 25 last month, and my Mikaela will turn 18 next week. I'm thankful that she's not a spoiled brat and just wants to have a simple birthday with he
CAMILLAHis tongue invaded my mouth as it was struggling to find mine. I clung to his neck to find my balance while his hands reached my ass, squeezing them, which made me groan at the sensual pain I felt.I cling my right leg to his waist as I tiptoe to match his height. And devour his mouth again.
CAMILLAWhen I was sure that Mikaela was fully asleep in my arms, I slowly placed her down on the baby crib. I only sigh in relief that I'm finally free when I exit the room. I called Linda to watch over Mikaela inside our room while I was preparing dinner for us.Five months have passed, and everyt
CAMILLAMy whole body was aching. I couldn't move an inch, or maybe I just didn't have enough power to move my fingers or toes. I groaned as I opened my eyes, and the light coming from the window glistened in my eyes. Wait… what happened? I remember that I dashed out of the hospital. Am I back here
AUBREYI know what he's thinking. So I abruptly avoided his eyes. “Are you nuts? Of course not. It's been months since we– I'm going home.”I was about to walk away in embarrassment, but he pulled my hand, and we both walked to his car. “I'll take you home.”The whole ride was too damn awkward. I do
AUBREY I just got out of the Galileo when Van called me to meet in the cafe near the company to discuss something. As usual, I only attended important meetings before leaving work after lunch. Camilla is not in good condition right now. She's giving birth any moment now, and Nikolai hasn't found i
CAMILLAMy heart pounded frantically upon hearing the statement of these people. “What? No… no! Please! Find my husband!” I exclaimed as I tried to get off the bed carefully.“We have to conclude that he may have been eaten or drowned at the bottom of the sea, which was difficult to search that vas
“Are you really ba-back?”I sobbed when he nodded again, and I immediately wrapped my arms around him.His warmth, his breathing, and his touch were all so real. He's wearing a tuxedo like he usually wore at work with disheveled hair and tiring eyes. Did he experience something terrible wherever he
CAMILLADays have passed, and they still haven't gotten anything. I was frustrated to the point that I wanted to question the search and rescue team if they were doing their job properly or not. Cole already talked and pointed to Carson as the mastermind in putting a bomb on Nikolai's plane. Hearin
