AXEL

The night was filled with dark clouds, so dark that there were hardly any stars and the moon was equally hidden away. It was also chilly and the road I was driving through seemed lifeless because the atmosphere was only filled with fall leaves and the rustling of the trees nearby and nothing else.

The mission had been going smoothly and It had almost come to an end, my heart calmed at the realization that everything would soon be concluded and I could finally have all that I’d ever wanted.

I was driving with a convoy after we’d picked up the shipment successfully, we only needed to get it to the safe house and we could tag the mission as a complete success. The road we were driving on was specially reserved at this time of the night for us alone, to the rest of the public it was closed temporarily due to unknown road hazards.

This road blockage was orchestrated by a member of our team that worked in high places amongst the state’s traffic wardens. It was done so t

    AXELHad my eyes failed me? I believed that they really had because I must’ve been hallucinating horribly at this point. The figure before me couldn't possibly be who I thought my eyes had made me believe it was. My heart hurt so much that I begged desperately for everything to be a dream as the figure before I smiled in satisfaction despite how much pain I was in while I struggled to make sense of everything that was happening to me.I needed to get a clearer view so I managed to rub off some of the blood that had clouded my vision terribly with a shaky hand before I looked up again.And it hit me.It wasn't a dream, it felt too real to be a dream but I was in immense physical and emotional pain as I finally made peace with the fact that the figure before me was indeed that of the woman I loved more than life itself, it was truly Lisa.And worst of all, even in this very moment I didn’t hate her, I hated myself for being so vulnerable with her that I turned a blind eye to the possibi

    AXELI woke from what felt like a trance when the chilling feeling of cold water being poured down my face and entire body hit me. I felt as though I’d been electrified and anger consumed me at the thought of being treated that way, but more than anything I was confused and could hardly remember how I’d gotten to where I was.Everything that had happened in the past few hours flashed before my eyes and I winced in pain as I remembered how chaotic and emotionally draining it had been, I had no wish whatsoever to relive it- not even in my memories.With vigor, I tried to raise my head to shake off the thoughts that had begun to occupy my mind but as soon as I raised my eyes, I was met with my father’s angry face. I’d seen his angry face countless times but it was rarely ever directed at me so this was a foreign experience and I had no idea how to respond to his anger.Instead of speaking, I let my head drop while I tried to think of how I’d gotten to where I was, and more importantly -

    LISAEverything hurt, so bad.My heart, every joint in my body, and everything that made up my entire being. At this point, I felt like I was barely holding on to my will to live and I wasn’t even fighting back all of the depressing feelings that had flooded my mind for the past few days.I could never ever forgive myself for betraying Axel and insulting his ego by confronting him like he didn't mean anything to me. As his wounded face flashed through my mind’s eye, I punched my pillow weakly and fell back into my bed with my face facing the sheets, I had hated every second of my life from the minute I saw how much Axel was in pain and it only got worse by the day.It had already been two days since I’d sabotaged his mission but life had only kept getting more and more miserable for me, doing anything was a chore and I couldn't stop beating myself up for how everything had played out. I hadn't gotten a blink of sleep for two nights and anyone could see that I looked like hell, every d

    LISADespite knowing who he was and why he'd come for me, as soon as his feet thudded while he landed in my room from the window, I staggered and almost fell backward because I'd lost my balance briefly. I'd been impatiently expecting him for the past few days, but his presence startled me still and my feet betrayed me by turning into jelly underneath me as I took in his physique.He took a more defensive stance on seeing me lose my balance so suddenly and I assumed that he'd mistaken my staggering for an attempt to try and call for help. On instinct, he moved dangerously closer to me and my heart got stuck in my throat as he approached me angrily."Don't you dare try to call for help" He said in an unusually dark and authoritative tone that made chills run through my spine especially since I knew that his displeasure was directed at me, even though I deserved it- it still stung like crazy having experienced it now."I wasn't trying to call for help, I swear" I barely choked out the w

    Axel’s POVEver since I began the mission to take back everything I’d lost in full force, Prince had been calling often for updates and to show his support. Despite my hyper-independence, at a time like this, I genuinely appreciated his concern and I also felt empowered knowing that someone believed in me to turn things around despite everything that had happened recently with the last shipment.Even now, he’d called to check in and get updates on how things had turned out so far and as usual, I was willing to share every single detail with him, even though my hold on trusting people had dwindled greatly after being betrayed by Lisa.“How’s everything going? I hope everything’s in place now.” Prince asked and I could sense that he’d been a little tense because he knew how delicate this mission was to us, we needed a big win so badly.“We’ve successfully landed on the remote island where one of our safe houses is located, as per your insistence we've also set up security to the max and

    AXELI stood in a spot as I was mere inches away from Lisa, I knew that I wasn't sane enough to be dealing with the stubbornness she’d been putting up concerning eating her meals. Why wouldn't she eat when it seemed like she’d been starved for days even when I kidnapped her? She had absolutely no right to make me worry about her now when she was meant to be nothing but a common prisoner to me.I didn't know if she wasn't eating as a sign of protest but I didn't want to show her any emotion rather than the anger that had boiled through my veins nonstop for the last few days, so I tried my best to act as though her appearance and her refusal to eat didn't bother me in the slightest way. Also, if my anger would coerce her to eat so that I’d stop giving a fuck about her well-being, then I was willing to pull a few strings and make her eat already.“If you know what's good for you, you'll eat every single meal that’s brought to you because trying to do a little protest by going on a hunger

    I didn't deserve a morsel of food.I didn't deserve anything good, I knew that and that's why I didn't want to eat anything that had been brought to my room in the last two days. It’d been ringing in my head non-stop that I didn't deserve the comfort I was being offered here as a prisoner, I wasn't here to be fed or given a comfortable bed to rest my head on, I was here to be taken revenge on and I truly wished he’d get on with it already before the guilt I felt ate me up inside out.When would he finally torture me as he’d kept threatening to? I impatiently wondered. Instead, he’d just been here ordering me to eat as though I was going on a hunger strike to protest being kidnapped, little did he know that I was simply punishing myself for being a bitch to him. But I knew that I couldn’t tell him that, I wasn't seeking pity or sympathy from him, I just needed him to level the playing ground by exacting his revenge on me for my betrayal so that we’d finally be even in a way.He looked

    AXELMy head always ended up being a mess after any little interaction with Lisa these days, I could control my emotions and expressions with anyone else but not around her. Even when I managed to successfully control my emotions by masking them, it's a fucking struggle and I almost always lose the struggle.I don’t know why I’d asked her about the memories we shared when I knew deep down that her answers would most likely hurt me. It had slipped out of my lips before I could drop myself and it rendered all the commandeering I’d been doing earlier as null and void somehow. It's all because I let myself get lost in my head while it replayed all the memories of where I would've given the world just to keep watching her smile. I should've never let myself get wrapped up in our memories after what she’d done and how she’d crushed my heart.After the question had slipped out, I needed to do damage control so I masked my feelings again just to get an answer out of her. Things had gone south

  • ILLICIT AFFAIRS   EPILOGUE

    LISA A YEAR LATER Have I just spent the absolute best year of my life? Yes. Best was such an understatement to describe the year I just had. Axel made sure to keep on his promise of being the best thing that has ever happened to me and each day was better than the last. And he also made sure to keep up with the promise of putting babies inside me during our honeymoon because here I was, heavily pregnant and the scan has confirmed that we were expecting twins. Axel has never allowed me to hear the end of it. He was always bragging about his skills and all those yadayada nonsense and that was how he was able to impregnate me during our three months honeymoon. Yeah, we did use three months for our honeymoon and I was sure we were the only couple that had done that. I wanted us to go back after a month but Axel had insisted that we spent three months and in the end, it was all because of me. He wanted me to learn all the things I've mentioned that I wanted to learn while making sure

    AXELI still couldn't believe my eyes, just like I couldn't believe everything that had happened for the past 2 hours but one thing was real. Lisa was here by my side, wearing my ring as we walked out of the airport hand in hand and into the car that was already waiting for us.“But how did you do this?” I finally asked, speaking for the first time since I confirmed that she was the one sitting beside me on the plane, “how were you able to make that happen?” I asked as the car drove us to the hotel we booked for our honeymoon. “My brother-in-law helped me,” she sassed, leaning closer to me like she has been doing since we entered the car. It was like she couldn't believe that I was here and she needed to feel my body to confirm that. Not that I was complaining though. I'd gladly allow her to enter my body if that's why she needed it. “Your brother-in-law? Prince?” I asked incredulously suddenly slammed with the idea that Prince somehow knew of where she was all these while but I k

    Lisa's POVMy disappearing act was the most unplanned and spontaneous decision I'd ever made in my life and now I'd realized that it was a poorly thought-out decision, one that only caused the people I loved more pain than the relief I'd expected it to bring them.As much as it literally blew my mind that I'd finally gotten married to the man I wouldn't have dared to dream of while I was growing up, I couldn't stop myself from feeling like a burden and a magnet of unfortunate events for him.It was bothersome that I could easily trace every misfortune that had befallen him back to myself, it was as though I was a catalyst for his misery over and over. It felt as though trouble trailed dangerously close behind me and affected everyone in my life, most especially Axel.I'd broken his heart and betrayed him, stolen a shipment that he'd worked tirelessly to procure, and made being a hostage a mentally challenging chore for him, and now I'd been oblivious to the fact that I was being used a

    AXELSIX MONTHS LATERMy entire life had been turned upside down ever since Lisa disappeared from the hospital, it hurt like hell that the moment I’d gotten her back, I’d lost her without single trace. I’d been wild the day she disappeared, I was fucking angry at everyone and I raided the hospital angrily.I spat threats out and shook the very foundations of the entire hospital because I needed at least a single clue as to how Lisa had disappeared. But no single person had any reasonable information to offer me and my heart had sunk with fear, what if I’d lost her forever?I regretted having gone for the meeting that day and leaving her unattended, the two days when I didn't step out of the hospital she’d been perfectly safe and then the second I left, she was suddenly lost to the fucking wind? I blamed myself and feared what would become of me if I never found her.Every day for the last six months had been a recurring nightmare, I was living in a world where Lisa wasn't by my side an

    Axel's POVEverything felt like a blur in the past two days, time seemed to be at a standstill and nothing made sense to me asides from updates on Lisa's fragile and critical health. I'd been seated for hours in the private waiting lodge of the secluded recovery room I paid for to ensure she was being catered to in the best conditions.It felt like no time had passed yet time had dragged aimlessly for the last forty-eight hours, I was always on edge whenever the doctor approached me with news, I didn't know how I'd react if I lost her— I'd lose my damn mind, that's for sure.In over 10 hours, the last news I'd gotten about Lisa was that she was still unconscious and her vitals were unstable. Since then, I'd shuffled between pacing up and down, running my hands through my hair in frustration, feeling like my heart would burst from the scare, and refusing to speak to anyone that dared to tell me I deserved rest— rest? I'll rest when Lisa is awake and stable.Involuntarily my mind drifte

    Lisa’s POVMy heart ripped into a million pieces while I watched what had become of the day that I’d love to keep replaying in memory on a loop, my father has turned my wedding day which had just made me shed tears of unimaginable joy into a freaking shit hole.As he called to me with an arm stretched out, I felt a wave of disgust and hatred for him that was impossible to conceal. I was certain that my facial expressions gave away just how much I detested his guts as he stood before me.My heart kept beating uncontrollably and I could barely form the millions of questions that flew threw my mind, I needed to breathe but I didn't care to catch my breath as much as I terribly needed answers to those questions from my father.I couldn't believe the smug and unapologetic look he has on his face, it was as though he didn't care about hurting me as long as she had his way. I finally mustered the courage to speak but I was certain my voice would sound cracked and snotty because of how much I

    Axel’s POVA serenading symphony of wedding songs that Lisa and I had chosen was being played on the organ and my heart squeezed in its position in my chest because I knew what the start of the music signaled. It had meant that in no time, Lisa would be walked down the aisle by her father toward me.As I looked down the empty aisle I noticed that Volkov’s men has moved from the positions outside the church and had joined my men indoors.They all seemed to be in sync for some reason, but I couldn't possibly guess with the excitement in my veins, still, I looked over at Prince and nodded toward them so that he’d observe them and u could focus on Lisa, and he’d understood what my gesture meant and nodded back at me sharply.I quickly shifted my mind from worrying about what might be irrelevant and focused on my wedding day again.I became tense yet excited at the prospect of looking at her beautiful face for the last time before she became my wife before this congestion. I stood before t

    Axel's POV I was certain that I hadn't stopped smiling while I got dressed for the event of the day, I was thrilled beyond human comprehension. I'd retied my bowtie a couple of times because my mind kept wandering to Lisa like the hopelessly smitten man I was, I could barely focus on myself. I'd decided to wear a dark blue double-breasted suit instead of sticking with the conventional rite of black suits for the groom. I buttoned my jacket and dusted it proudly while I checked myself out in the mirror, Lisa was lucky to be getting married to an absolute snack, I laughed as the silly thought crossed my mind. It hit me again that very moment, I was truly getting married to the woman that made love feel so good I was certain we'd cheated the laws of the universe. I'd never thought I would be so certain that someone was made for me, my soulmate, and my entire world. Just then, a hand landed on my back and rubbed it aggressively and shook me out of the thoughts I'd immersed my mind in.

    LISAIf anyone had told me that my love would become an ethereal dream after being a complete nightmare a month ago, I'd have spat bitterly in their face. But yet, here I was, living the life I wouldn't have dared to dream of after all the unfortunate events I'd been through.My nerves could barely contain my excitement and my heart was an endless leap for joy because I was about to get through the day I'd fantasized about a million times over the past month.
