Almyra's POV, My eyes were strictly fixed on Xavier waiting for his answers, I was not patient, not even for a second. Every second he looked at me felt like he had been looking at me for an hour. “You should complete the statement, Xavi.” I snapped at him again. He had a confused look on his face, he was controlling something. I guess he did not want to flame up like I am doing. “You don't wanna hear what I want to say do you?” His voice made me pause. “Of course Xavier, I wanna hear what it is that you have to say.” I placed some strands of the hair behind me and heaved a sigh. “I love you Almyra,” he paused. “But… It was this “but” I had an issue with, he should tell me if he loves me halfway only and not completely. “...but I don't know what came over me and why I mistreated you the other time.” His voice was firm and serene. A part of me was washed with relief, I guess I was too fast to jump into conclusion, I should have waited to hear from him completely. “How am I sup
Almyra's POV, He looked at me with a disappointed face and I had an assuring look on my face. “I guess I was too fast to say that,” he said after a sharp inhale. “I'm sorry about that.” “No, that's not it,” I muttered under my breath. We just met after several months of divorce so how am I supposed to say yes? Not that I could say no also, I was so stuck in the middle. “We have been divorced for some months so I don't think we can just get married that easily,” I spoke with a hint of empathy in my voice. “I see.” He shut his eyes closed for a second. I never wanted it to be this way Xavier, I never wanted it sound this way. I was not rejecting you. Suddenly, my thoughts drifted towards an idea. “What about if we just start afresh?” His face tilted in shock and surprise. “We were never divorced in the first place.” Did he suffer a fatal damage to his skull that made him lose his memory while I was away? We both signed that paper that day, so why is he saying this? “What d
Almyra's POV, The car's headlight blurred my vision of other things around me, the engine kept roaring like a beast as it approached me. All of a sudden, it stopped and the engine died down, is supposed to even be used to play in a way or two? I was the only one with the surprised look on my face, why? Xavier or Gina never had the surprised look on their face like I did, color me impressed. The silence between the three of us was never ending. But finally, I broke it. “What's happening guys?” I shifted my gaze towards them but their eyes was still fixed on the car. “I don't think you would be able to drive with a light head so I told Xavier to call you his driver,” Gina sighed. “To take you home.” “So I did you the favour of calling the elite mastero,” Xavier stretched his hand towards the car. “The one and only Benjamin, you could call him Ben for short anyway.” Pathetic, why was he talking like they gave birth to me yesterday? I mean almost everyone knows what the short n
Almyra's POV, “Who…who the fuck are they Ben!?” I stuttered as I yelled under my breath. My voice revealed how tense I was, it could not be hidden in any possible way. If I'm to die then Xavier's face should be the last thing I should see so why does it have to be now? “I have no idea of who they are,” Ben successfully gained control of the steering wheel again and the car surged forward the more, its engine kept roaring as it surged forward. “We just have to lose them first,” his voice was uneasy and he inhaled sharply. “Then we can call the fucking cops!” He yelled in frustration. The black car surged forward to where our car was and it slowly brought down the window. My face was diverted to them and it felt like I was magnetized to the car, I could not take my eyes off as the window slowly came down. But it never stopped the car from pursuing ours, and finally a female looked towards our direction with an evil grin. “Oh my fucking days!” I brought ours down on seeing who it
Almyra's POV, The look on Keith's face was one in which I've never seen before. Anger, rage, terror. I coughed slightly to clear my throat, "Are you ever gonna let me walk through that door?" I motioned my hands towards the sitting room before placing my palms on my forehead. Keith just arched his eyebrow and gritted his teeth, "where the fuck have you been Almyra!?" He yelled. But even in that yelling, I could sense pity clouding his anger and love, taking over his rage. "Where did you think I went to Keith, where?" I let out a slight scoff before laughing sarcastically. Of course it's weird for him to ask a question like this. Me talking to myself inwardly was cut short as I heard Keiran's voice in the sitting room. "Who is that Keith?" His baritone voice pierced out of the sitting room. "It's Almyra," Keith was a zero percent hesitant to speak. Like what the fuck is going on with them? It was not long after Keith's response before I started hearing pounding footsteps,
Almyra's POV, As I settled into the bathtub, the warm water enveloped me, soothing my tense muscles, easing the aches of my back and my head in which I got from Chris the non-human. The soft ripples of the water caressed my skin, calming my mind. I closed my eyes, letting the gentle warmth seep into my bones. The dimmed lights of the bathroom cast a warm glow, creating a serene ambiance. The sconces above the sink emitted a soft, golden light, casting a warm reflection on the water's surface. The LED candles flickering on the countertop added a peaceful ambiance, their gentle dance mesmerizing. The water's surface reflected the soft light, creating a shimmering effect that seemed almost hypnotic. I felt my worries slowly drifting away, carried by the gentle lapping of the water against the tub's edges. The warmth seeped deeper into my muscles, relaxing my shoulders, my neck, and my mind. My breathing slowed, and my thoughts grew quieter. The world outside receded, leaving only the
Almyra POV, The silence between the both of us was offending but I still maintained my position. After all, I survived being alone, without him for months, almost years. So this would be normal right? But I don't want to experience the pain that I experienced while he was away from me, I don't want to feel those pain any more. “Yes I would come,” his deep voice jolted me from my thoughts causing me to make a loud gasp. “Only if you convince them actually.” “Come on babe,” I yawned. “Are you afraid of them? I mean I saw the way you battered Chris's face so can't you do that to them also,” I teased. He probably knew that I was pushing him into a ditch, a pit. He wouldn't dare. “Even if you call me something sweeter than that I won't bulge,” his scoff went a long way but I nodded while snickering. “If you say so then I guess I would just talk to them.” I was about to hang up the phone when he called me. “Almyra.” “Yeah,” I shook my head even when he could not see me. “You kno
Almyra's POV, They kept looking at me with rage filled in their eyes before Kaleb broke the silence. “What the fuck did you mean by Xavier!?” He barked and he spilled his drink causing the marbled floor to be painted in the color of Kaleb's drink, wine. “Look Almyra we all agreed that Xavier would have nothing to the with us until the day he goes back to the ground.” Keith was also annoyed but he cloaked it in his voice. His voice was cool, yet detached. “I never agreed such a thing with you people,” I turned to the fridge to pick a can of coke. I guess I was drinking it after all the banters I made with Ben in the car the other day. “Or can anyone of you remind me of when I said such a thing? Or can anyone of you tell me when I agreed to not have anything to do with him?” “Wait, did you mean you guys are–” “And it's not like Xavier and I are back together,” I interrupted Keiran rudely. “At least it's not my funeral he's attending.” “Why the fuck are you reacting this way!?”
