Another morning hits the ground when Lium wakes up smiling before tossing and turning like a teenager in love in the comfy bed that he shared with his wife. Ever since that night that he couldn’t sleep, Verosha let him sleep with her on the same bed and he’s never been happy until recently. But it didn’t last long when he noticed Verosha was not there beside him.
“I better wake up early next time.” Lium muttered to himself while smiling when he noticed his phone blinking.
Arnold: Dude, the boss said to inform you to pick your things up since there is new staff taking your place already.
L: Great way to ruin my morning, but okay. I’ll be there.
Arnold: Le
“Alright, here we go.” Verosha muttered to herself and went immediately into her cold facade that even at a couple of distance, Lium could feel them already. The air in the office drastically drops and was much colder than the air condition could ever give. He feels the chill coming from his wife. “No wonder why nobody could get near or touch her. I could feel it from here.” Lium sighed but smirked at what he was witnessing for the first time. “Come in.” Verosha coldly said while making some markings over the eyesore proposal from the man who she was about to meet. “Mr. Castle is here for your meeting, boss.” Althea rolled her eyes in annoyance when she informed that to her lady boss. “Okay, let him in.” She coldly responded and Althea let the man enter the office.
Verosha didn’t see it coming that her husband had a gut to shout at her when nobody dared to do so. At the same time, she would have never guessed that Lium could ever shout at all. She was surprised but a little bit confused at the same time by what her husband was saying. “Why would you be when you’re already my husband?” she wondered the reason when they were already married. “THAT’S THE THING I’M JUST THE HUSBAND IN THE PAPERS BUT NOT IN YOUR HEART, VEROSHA. NOT IN YOUR FUCKING HEART!” He cried as he pointed out about their marriage was not love but an arranged one and it hits Verosha differently. She was hurt by it. “What are you…” She was about to say something since Lium was already crying. She was starting to feel them and she started to tremble slightly. She doesn’t like i
Ever since Lium did that indoor movie date with his wife, he began to do more for his wife. He started on waking up early in the morning just to prepare their breakfast to which both of them enjoyed talking about random things. Then he even decided to bring his wife to her company back and forth or even stayed at Verosha’s office. Speaking of the office, Lium was inside the office helping Verosha to check the proposals from the design department when the same man, Mr. Castle came inside without knocking. Althea was behind him and looked irritated at the man but at the same time sorry to her lady boss. “You should know how to knock.” Verosha was totally annoyed. Lium didn’t like the disrespectfulness that Mr. Castle was doing he already made a message to Althea. Lium KM:
“Ms. Choi, where’s my husband?” Verosha asked in her worried tone as soon as she came back home from her usual hectic work at the company. “I’m not sure…earlier he was helping the gardener around the garden then around here but after an hour, he left…he might be in your bedroom.” Ms. Choi answered before smiling when she informed her about checking their bedroom. Lium has been sleeping there for months already even since he lost his father and had some nightmares. For some reason, being around Verosha, he found peace and calm which made them decide to start sleeping in one room which they were used to each other’s company. “Ohh…okay…I hope he’s okay now…” Verosha sighed and nodded before she went to their master bedroom. B
But as another came into their lives, Lium didn’t manage to catch her wife again in the morning or in dinner. He has been skipping meals just to have some decent meal with his wife but couldn’t find them at the moment until he collapsed. “Verosha…” Lium muttered as he opened his eyes. “Sorry, dear, the lady wasn’t here yet.” Ms. Choi cleared him and he slowly sat up from the bed. “Ohh…what happens? I’m just thinking what can I cook for her then I felt dizzy.” He smiled sadly and wondered what just happened to him. “You’ve been skipping meals and then you’re working too much around the mansion. And the doctor said to drink this pain reliever for your paintball bruises. You need to eat properly, okay.” Ms. Choi answered and Lium was shy about his bruises
Artistic Hotel & Restaurant Verosha checked the hotel since they were having visitors for their morning and overnight seminars. Then while she was there, she accept the appointment for business meetings with the investors and business owners. “It’s my pleasure that you’re willing to share you business around among the local business.” Verosha shook hands with a business owner that willing to share their business around the area. “Same here, it is my privilege to let my first business be open around this area after my parents. I’m just continuing their legacy with a little bit of twist of my own touch.” the business owner informed a little since his business was a cafe and flower shop. “I can wait to see your business prosper. I will let one of my men assist
Lium wasn’t lying when he said that he could drive a car fast their than a car. Due to the speed of their drive, Verosha tightened her hold around Lium’s waist which almost choked him on how tight it was. “Honey, don’t kill me.” Lium chuckled as he patted Verosha’s arms around his waist and slightly slowed down for the sake of his wife. “Sorry…” Verosha only managed to say before she looked around her. Everything was moving at such speed and it's been a while since the last time she felt the rush of the wind brushing against her skin. She missed driving her motorbikes. In just a few more minutes on the road, Lium managed to get back safely inside their mansion and just by the front door entrance, Lium hopped off the motorbike before guiding his wif
“I’m gonna kill you for ruining my night with my wife.” Lium gritted his teeth while madly driving the same motorbike like a real drag racer. But as soon as the presence of her husband, Verosha immediately called one of his men from his Lilium Familia. “Aldrich, tail my husband. He’s heading somewhere.” Verosha commanded Aldrich as she sent to him the plate number of the motorbike that Lium was using at the moment. ‘Noted, Lady Vero.’ “I hope you’re not involved with the same person we’re watching…” she sighed with hope in her tone but she was wary about her husband's sideline job that he gave up before marrying her. When Verosha gave that command, she went on checkin
A month later at the Kim-Mondre mansion, the house was full of squealing and giggling voices of the children while being chased by their mother. But it vanished a little when something suddenly happened to Verosha. “WHAT THE FUCK!” Verosha exclaimed when Lium suddenly abducted him from playing with the kids who were just laughing and waving their hands to their parents. “Good luck, Daddy.” Lillia was giggling as she wished their father good luck. “Have fun, Mommy!” Raven shouted while waving his hand to his mother who was being carried by their father. “We need good news, Daddy!” Veronica teased their parents which made them laugh innocently. “What are they talking about, hubby?” Verosha a
Giving birth to three babies, Lium’s hand needed some replacement from the deathly grip that Verosha had given to him. But it was not the only case that Verosha gave to her husband. Aside from breaking some bones on Lium’s left hand, pulled his left ear then earned a very have slapped on his face and followed by a punch that caused him to be knocked out as soon as the delivery ended.“Where am I?” Lium quickly asked as soon as he woke up from being the punching bag of his wife during the delivery of their babies.“Hospital.” their family doctor answered.“What happened to my wife? My babies?” he quickly asked in a worried tone.“They were fine but you need to let your left hand rest. Your wife really bre
Ever since that night Lium made sure not to get on the wrong side of his wife. He still need his sleep and he was losing it whenever Verosha punished him with making love and no sleep at all. It was lovely to do with the person you married and in love with but the no sleeping part was the thing making him exhausted. “Babe, wake up. We’re here.” Lium could hear the gentle and loving voice of his wife waking him up. He just hummed yet his eyes were still closed while they were in the backseat of their car. “Babe, are you okay?” Verosha gently asked her husband after stretching his cheek slightly and waking him up already. “I’m supposed to be the one who’s asking you that since you’re pregnant.” Lium smiled and kissed her cheek. “Well, I’ve been wak
Not even counting the days or weeks but the feeling of what happened with Barron’s torment still lingers in the mind of Lium Kim-Mondre. Not because of his exceeding his limitation that his wife has to calm down but instead of what his wife just did to him afterward. ‘Honey, talk to me, please.’ ‘Verosha.’ Lium remembered how he called his wife with his pleading voice but there was no response aside from cold shoulders. But once they’ve reached the Lilium Familia’s mansion and inside the master’s bedroom, Verosha vanished before his eyes - that’s how fast his wife moved. ‘Honey, please, talk to me. I need you to speak to me. Where are you? Please.’
Being left in her creepy jail room or the torturing chamber, Verosha began cracking her stiff body. Then she began checking which toy that she’ll be going to use that has been prepared on the steel table. She was humming a melody that came into her mind until she recall wearing her favorite crimson-red gloves. “I almost forgot you.” Verosha chuckled and went back to humming while setting the toys that she decided to use for Barron. Verosha began cracking her fist and took the bucket that was full of cold water before tossing it to the unconscious Barron. He quickly jolted from the coldness of the water before wondering where he was again. “How’s your dream?” Verosha put the bucket down and faced the steel table again thinking about what she would use first.
Verosha made sure to sent Barron Castle first to Lilium Familia’s property and let her men prepare things for her arrival. But first, she had to make sure that her sleeping husband on her lap was not dying in her arms. “You really made your plan play well.” Verosha sighed with a worried tone while caressing her husband’s sleeping face. Even though it was messy due to the cuts and bruises, Verosha still found him attractively stunning and lovely in her eyes. “I love you and I will make him pay for these wounds that you’ve received.” She added as she spit venom as if she was cursing Barron for what he had done to her husband. Sensing the sudden shift of the dropping temperature, Verosha’s men with her jolted in fear due to the cold aura that she was releasing that goes along with
But even though Verosha was liking the idea that her husband just shared with him, she smacked the back of the head of her husband once again that making him pout. “Seriously, you miss hitting me, don’t you?” Lium sighed while pouting but his wife just rolled her eyes away from him. “That’s just for making me worried and you look hideous.” Verosha seriously told him before she looked toward Barron who was being lunatic already. “Sorry…” he apologized to his wife but Verosha was not in the mood on listening to his apologies because there was a serious matter that needed to be taken care of as soon as possible. “Apologized later.” Verosha only managed to say and it was very cold. “Why do you sound like you’r
When they saw Barron’s men leave as if it was their cue to leave them alone, Lium let Barron go on doing his punches and kicks but there was nothing. Lium literally felt nothing as Barron’s attack was getting weaker than earlier. ‘10…9…8…’ “Was he counting?” Tash wondered since they began hearing some counting voice in the background. “He does that when he was about to do something that nobody expects that he will do.” Leafa smiled while she pointed to them what was happening to Lium’s spot. ‘...7…6…’ But when Lium’s counting reach five, something was indeed changing in his movement. The impact from Barron’s punches or kicks was making Lium move drastically back and forth.
Verosha’s mood was totally shifting into something that new members of the Lilium Familia haven’t encountered yet. Only those who knew and worked with her knows whenever she was in that zone, she can never be stopped from giving nightmares to her prey. “Leafa, make sure to send me the proper location of their hideout.” Verosha commanded with her usual cold voice that made Leafa shiver a little. “Are you going in?” Tash asked. “Precisely.” she answered. “Alright but wait for a moment, Lady Vero. There’s a specific time that you need to be there.” Leafa sighed and calmly informed their lady boss not to engage in the warehouse. “Do you expect me to wait here while my husband could die there in the hands of th
