AXEL

Lisa’s father had thought that I was merely blabbing when I told him what state his daughter was in because I’d hesitated when he requested a video call, well, I was about to show him that he didn't have any playing cards against me this time around.

I stood against a wall in the basement of the safe house and watched as one of the guards brought a bloodied Lisa in. There was an empty chair that stood in the middle of the huge basement that was mostly empty and they walked toward it as soon as they entered the room.

I watched her very closely as she sat in the chair without so much of a fuss, some ropes drooped slowly around the chair to serve as a restriction for whoever was placed in it. I noticed how her eyes randomly juggled between the guard who’d started trying her up and myself.

She looked weak and downtrodden as she let the guard pull her hands behind her and tie them up, her eyes were bloodshot and empty like her spirits had been crushed. After a while, the guard moved t

    Axel’s POVFLASHBACK***After I’d blurted out the question about whether all the memories we’d spent, her replies seemed to have been off- it was as though she didn’t believe what she’d said to me. The entire conversation fucked with my mind In ways I didn’t expect and that did a number on me.As soon as I walked out of the room where she’d been in, I headed straight for the training room because I felt the weight of conflicting emotions in my heart. It made me angry that she still had an effect on me despite her betrayal and I just needed to let out some steam before I took out my anger on someone else.I walked in long and impatient strides and reached the training room in no time, as soon as I walked in I went straight for the punching bags where I usually found solace in times like these. I put on some gloves hurriedly because I needed to let out my frustration badly before it consumed me.The moment I started hitting the punching bags, my emotions were in a whirlwind and I punche

    LISAAs I watched Axel storm off without dignifying my response with a reply, the guilt that had been tugging at my heart enveloped me in a wicked and unwelcome embrace. He must've been put off by my hesitation after he'd asked me why I didn't kill him as I did with my other victims.I had no idea exactly what had been running through his mind as I struggled to form a reasonable response, but I'm certain it must've ticked him off. Most especially because he'd been trying to keep calm while I spoke of my betrayal like it wasn't the worst thing I'd ever done in my entire life.As guilt ate me up from within, my hands trembled slightly as regret and hurt washed over me at the same time. All the emotions that wickedly threatened to tear me apart caused me to be disoriented as I had no idea how to process them without losing my fucking mind.Even in the midst of emotional turmoil, my mind wandered to Axel and dwelt on how he'd been so adamant about getting me to eat the second he walked in

    Lisa's POVI struggled to regain my composure as I saw that my apologies weren't even getting to him, he truly seemed unaffected by everything I'd said. As hard as it was, I tried to keep my eyes on him because I'd hoped he'd read them and find sincerity, but he barely looked at me while I spoke."I'm sorry for everything I did that's hurt you," I said but It seemed like the words had fallen on deaf ears since he didn't dignify me with an expression or response.I watched Axel move the heel of his feet in an unusual rhythm instead of responding to my pleas, it felt as though my apologies had done nothing to calm him. Instead, it seemed to have gotten him angrier at me, especially now. But I needed to get through to him so I didn't have plans to stop apologizing just yet."I'm so sorry, Axel" I started to speak again and he shook his head as though he simply couldn't believe a word that left my lips."I really am, please," I re-emphasized but it did nothing to move him, he seemed hell-

    LISAMy heart crumbled in its cage, I felt painful whiplashes that almost felt like physical pain as my heart which had already ripped a couple of times, ripped again causing me to hold a hand to my chest for support as I realized just how much I’d hurt Axel.It was like a farmer’s rusted sickle’s hook had been lodged in my heart and gotten stuck halfway, my entire body felt like it couldn't my weight for much longer. I knew I’d hurt Axel, that's what I thought and it’d made life miserable for me, but here I am finding out that I actually crushed him.That realization tore me to pieces as I watched how hurt and angry he was, I had no idea that this man had loved me with no bounds. I’d known that his love for me was unconditional, but I didn't have the slightest idea that I had a hold on him that would’ve made him fight the world and give up anything just to be with me.The fact that he'd have even chosen me instead of his family in a heartbeat replayed in my head and caused the sickle

    Axel’s POVAll of the feelings that ravaged my being of recently had been foreign to me entirely, I’d never been one to fall victim to the matters of the heart, and usually, I took them too lightly for their outcome to affect me.But with Lisa, it was as though my heart crossed every single warning cone I’d put up, pushed all the guards surrounding my heart, and what ent all the way fucking in. How much I loved her felt like it was the necessity to breathe in oxygen every damn second.How on earth could a person feel this deeply for another? I wondered.The fact that I’d lasted through a conversation about how she’d made me feel despite how much it hurt to, proved that I indeed still felt our connection hadn't been severed yet.Here she was, after eavesdropping and listening to the new plan she now wanted to help cement it since she knew her father best compared to me and Prince. Her pleas only upset me because she didn't have a right to be offering to fix what she fucked up in the fi

    Axel’s POVHer eyes looked like the glossiest yet softest shade of brown as she looked at me, I hated how it made me feel sorry that I’d just told her off.A little pout formed on her lips and I turned away from her quickly, she knew exactly what she was doing by looking at me that way. She knew damn well that I could read and almost feel the meanings behind all of her facial expressions, even now.I dragged the chair that was pushed into my study table and sat in it, maybe if I managed to ignore her for long enough she'd take a fucking hint and leave my sight. I huffed angrily as I sat, the main source of my anger being that she still affected me, it scared me that she did.My ears itched to pick up the sound of her feet leaving the room and shutting the door behind her, but it never came. I stared blankly at the system in front of me, I pretended like I was going over some important numbers on the spreadsheet I’d displayed before myself.My attention span was suddenly unreliable as

    AXELI covered my eyes with my palm as though I was ashamed of what we'd just done. If I was being sincere, it's the best thing that has happened to me since the betrayal, everything else had caused me a higher ratio of pain than pleasure in comparison to the exhilarating sex we'd just enjoyed.A low groan left my throat as I rubbed my eyes a little roughly, and moved away from where she lay beside me. We must've drifted off to sleep after tiring ourselves out because I felt slightly better rested just by having her in my arms for what must've only been a few minutes of deep sleep.Even with the knowledge of what we'd just done, and the sex flashbacks from our heated sex being replayed in my head, I couldn't believe that I'd let myself have sex with her. How did she know just how to trigger my primal lust and longing for her? Shit, I'm done for.As much as I wouldn't take back the fact that we'd just fucked, I couldn't stop myself from feeling like I'd betrayed myself. A feeling of se

    Axel’s POVIt felt like my foolish heart was doing splits at the thought of marrying Lisa, while my brain was ironing out a million reasons why it would make sense- the spearheading reason was the fact that she’d betrayed me less than a month ago and made me feel immeasurable pain as a result.That didn't stop my heart from doing summersaults at the fact that I didn't have to lift a finger this time around, and somehow we’d gotten the blessings I would've given anything to get from both of our families. The offer felt surreal to me, I could hardly believe my ears when my father said it, and even now I doubted I’d heard right.I had to stop myself from asking my father to repeat himself, mostly because he hated having to do that so I just had to believe that I’d heard him right. I'm certain that anyone that came across me at any the moment would’ve been able to see the grave shock that had overtaken my features.Right after he’d said it, words failed me when I tried to find a suitable

    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.

    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.
