ANGELINA —"What?""I think it's time for you to leave, Scarlett," Susan said stepping closer."It's not your house, Susan," Scarlett said bitterly."Well, it is mine." I heard Fiona saying, "And I want you to leave this instant."Scarlett glared at Fiona and then looked at me, "We had crazy nights where your death didn't matter."My mouth felt dry at her words. Was it true? Did he really sleep with her multiple times?"Angel—""I am going to the garden," I said and ran quickly.The garden was the same as I had left it. The sweet scent of the flowers made me sigh. I walked over and sat on the bench. My mind replayed her words.We had crazy nights where your death didn't matter.Didn't it? Was he really moving on with his life? Of course, he would've. I had left for San Diego to leave him alone, to live a life that didn't involve him. I did live my life without him. I had an apartment of my own, I earned my money. I moved on and I lived my life but not like he did. He moved on by sleep
ANGELINA -"Come on, Angelina," Danzel called out, "We are going to be late.""Don't you dare start with that!" I said, glaring at him from the mirror as I fixed my hair, "I was ready thirty minutes ago. You jumped on me as soon you saw me."He laughed at my words, "Don't make it sound like that. I know you enjoyed it."I snorted at his words and saw him walking closer. He narrowed his eyes at me playfully and pressed himself. Groaning at his action, I pushed him back."Go back; I won't let you mess up my hair again.""It's not my fault that you look so damn sexy," he whispered huskily, "I am a man with thin patience."I breathed in to control my nerves and looked at him, "Yeah? Well, I tend to have a lot of patience.""What's gotten into you these days?" Danzel said, rubbing his hand up and down my waist, "You are all snappy and everything."With my teeth clenched tightly, I said, "If you don't like me then say it."Danzel looked at me for a second before turning me around. I gasped
ANGELINA - The next few days were the best days of my life. After everyone found out about my pregnancy, they were overjoyed about it. Yara started taking extra care of me and she'd worry about small things. The love they showered upon me was overwhelming.Danzel was a whole another story. He was always being careful about me. He started cutting off his working hours in order to spend more time with me.Three days ago, Danzel and I moved on the ground floor. The experience was amazing. He was possessive about me but he was protective when it came to our baby. He'd be a great father, I was sure of it."Okay, it's been ten minutes and you are staring blankly at me and it's freaking me out." Susan's voice snapped me from my trance. I smiled apologetically. "What are you thinking?" she asked me."About you people, actually. You all have been really helpful to me."She rolled her eyes at me, "Are you kidding me?" walking toward me and sat down. "You are family, Angel.""Thank you!" I said
ANGELINA -I heard faint murmuring. The pain in my head echoed through the depths of my mind. I wanted to massage my head and squeeze it between my fingers to try and lessen the pain. The scrutinizing agony made me want to crawl somewhere safe, in the warmth I needed.My eyes fluttered open and I blinked them. My face was covered in sweat and my hands, I couldn't move them.Gritting my teeth in pain, I moved my head and looked around. There were many people around me, shuffling and some sitting quietly.I was on a plane. I looked over to my left and saw no one. My mind was dizzy, my entire body felt heavy as I struggled to call the air hostess. I strained my neck and pat the seat next to me to get her attention.She looked over at me and smiled, "How are you feeling, Ms. Jones?"Ms. Jones?No!"I want-" I struggled to say.She leaned in to listen to me but then a hand stopped her. Through my heavy lids, I saw him saying something to her and she watched me with sympathy."So sorry to he
DANZEL -"We can also put up something for collateral if you wish to, Mr. Parker?"I shook my head, "There won't be any need for that, Mr. Simon. I am sure I can trust your word."He smiled and then handed me the paper, I took out my pen and finalized the deal."We look forward to having business with you, Mr. Parker." He said shaking my hand."As long as everyone's happy," I said and smiled.All the other members got up and I walked toward my office. My fingers immediately searched for my phone and I checked it. No reply from Angelina, which means she was upset. Philip walked in with some files in his hand."Are we going home straight?" he asked me, "Or are you planning on catching up with some drinks with the client?""My girl's upset because I hung up on her, what do you say I should do?" I said while looking at the details in the file."Is it?" he laughed, "Definitely the girl, boss.""What did my sunshine do this time?" Creed spoke while strolling behind."Nothing new," I murmure
ANGELINA -I woke up to loud screaming. My eyelids felt heavy against my eyeballs and I struggled to open them. The pulse near my head throbbed painfully. I heard Ace shouting something and finally, I opened my eyes. The man, who was friends with Ace, was saying something. I saw Ace breathing fast, the man was telling him to calm down.A loud groan escaped my mouth and both the heads snapped at me."The bitch's awake," Ace snickered."Oh thank god," the man sighed and got up. He brought a bottle towards my mouth and I moved my head aside. I wasn't drinking whatever this man was forcefully shoving."It's just water," he grumbled, "Drink!"This time he took my jaw between his fingers and tilted the bottle. I wasn't going to drink it but as soon as it hit my throat, I gladly welcomed the water.Once he was done, he pulled away from the bottle and checked my jaw. The cuts along my cheek stung when he dabbed his fingers in it. I shut my eyes and hissed in pain."Christ," he swore and pulle
ANGELINA - I screamed until my throat coughed out dry air. Mike's body fell on the ground with a loud thud; his eyes wide open in shock stared at the ceiling. My heartbeats fastened under my rib cage.I stared at the man, unaware of what Ace was doing. I heard him curse loudly and then I looked up.If I was afraid of him before, I was terrified of him now. His green eyes were hauntingly staring at me. I didn't dare to move a muscle.I slowly watched Ace drag Mike's body through the living room behind the couch. Just a few hours ago, this man fed me, saved me from Ace, and now, he lay dead in the same house."Look what you made me do!" Ace spoke finally.I was too scared to say anything. My eyes stayed glued to the smeared red on the floor. Mike's blood felt like accusing me, shouting at me for his life."I was going to give you an easy death," Ace said coming closer, "But now, you have to pay for the mess you made."And after that, a loud smack resonated through the room and I fell b
ANGELINA -Five years later...I scrunched my eyelids when the light hit my face. Shifting in displeasure, I snuggled into a warm body. Arms went around me and I sighed, instantly welcoming the intimacy. The arms tightened around me and then the fingers spread, slowly tracing my back. I groaned and moved closer, wanting to sleep more but the man had different plans. He brought his face closer to my hair and breathed out. Straightway, a shiver ran over my body and a small chuckle echoed through the silent room.I looked up and glared."Good morning," Danzel said hoarsely with a beautiful smile on his face."Let go of me," I grumbled and moved back.He laughed loudly at my expression and propped himself to face me. "Someone's grumpy.""I hate you," I said and snuggled into a pillow.I was pushed onto the bed and a sleepy Danzel hovered above me. He scraped his stubble over my neck and planted a kiss."Danzel," I said pushing him in vain.His lips traveled up and then he kissed me. his l
Did you think I'd write a bonus chapter and not let Danzel speak? >.
