Axel's PovDerek's words lingered in the air as I listened intently. "Sir, I have already dispatched the men, but gaining entrance into that place is really hard, as every inch of the place is filled with able-bodied men," he explained. "Able-bodied?" I scoffed, my determination unwavering. I took a deep breath and stepped out of the car, heading towards the entrance of the warehouse. One of the men approached me, addressing me respectfully, "Young master Axel." I nodded but was abruptly stopped as they barred my way, with one of them stating, "You can't go in."My frustration peaked. "Why can't I go in?" I questioned, ready to defy them. "This is not the place where you are supposed to be," they insisted. Without a second thought, I reacted impulsively, landing a punch on the man's nose. "Just for Leah, I am willing to go to any length," I proclaimed, my emotions running high.The situation escalated as the men I had placed on ambush arrived, and a fierce fight broke out. Using th
Axel, I screamed, watching in horror as he fell to the ground, his eyes closing. I rushed to his side and shook him, calling his name desperately. "Axel, please, wake up," I pleaded, feeling a surge of panic swelling within me. He looked disoriented, a faint smile lingering on his lips. Was he faking it? Had he actually fainted, or was it a ploy to deceive me once again?"Derek, what's happening? Is he okay?" I asked, my voice laced with worry. Derek quickly knelt beside us, his eyes filled with concern. "The ambulance is here, Ms. Leah. They'll take care of him," Derek assured me, gesturing to the approaching medical team. Axel was swiftly placed on a stretcher and taken into the ambulance, leaving me feeling helpless and anxious.Minutes later, a doctor approached me with reassurance. "Everything is fine, miss. Axel was just short on blood, but he's stable now," the doctor informed me.I let out a breath I hadn't realized I was holding and followed the doctor inside. Seeing Axel
Axel's PovJasper climbed up on the bed and sat between Leah and me, "You guys slept together last night and you didn't even bother calling me," Jasper pouted, his face turning cute. "Don't you guys want me anymore?" he asked sadly. I looked at Leah, "Ahh, we told you we don't want you anymore, come on, let's go back to bed, let's go," I said as I placed my legs on Jasper and lay down on the bed.Leah facepalmed and stood up from the bed, "Two babies," she muttered as she walked into the bathroom."Axel," Jasper called out. I opened my eyes and looked at him. He pursed his lips and looked at me with a serious expression, "What's going on between you and mommy?" he asked me.I felt my throat tighten, unsure of what to say. How the hell do I reply to him? Should I say, "Oh Jasper, your mom and I are already dating"? That would sound ridiculous for a young child.I struggled for the right word to say, but it keeps on failing me. "Are you dating Mommy now?" he asked me. I widened my eye
Axel's Pov"What's going on here?" Leah asked, dropping the groceries on the table. She stood with her hands on her hips, giving Jasper and me a scrutinizing look. I sat up suddenly, positioning myself with my legs folded on the floor, as if in meditation, and placed Jasper in front of me, mimicking my posture. Leah looked around the messy room with a stern expression. "Why is this place all messed up? And where did all these toys come from?" she demanded. "We're just trying to pass the time," I stammered, unsure of how to explain the chaos. Leah scoffed, "Trying to pass the time, and this place is a disaster. Who brought all these toys?" she pointed at the scattered toys around the room. Clearing my throat, I struggled to come up with an explanation. Jasper looked at me and spoke up, "Axel brought them." Leah turned to me with a disapproving gaze. "You don't know what to do with your money, do you," she said, a hint of disappointment in her voice. I sat in silence, not knowin
Leah's PovAs i opened the bedroom door and could no longer hear Axel's voice, I assumed he had made his way to the living room. A sense of disappointment washed over me, thinking he had not waited for me for long before leaving. "Aiyaa," I exclaimed as I saw Axel sitting by the door, dozing off. It was evident he was tired. I bent down, gently poking his cheek. He slowly opened his eyes and asked, "No longer angry?"I looked at him and shook my head, replying, "I can't be angry at you for long." My affection for him was clear as I poked his cheek. Axel smiled, and as i bit your lower lip, i found my self falling deeper and deeper for him, unable to stop myself from this pit called love.With a playful chuckle, Axel pulled me closer, his breath against my cheek making my face go red. Suddenly, he swept me up in bridal style and carried me into the bedroom, saying, "Let me show you how much I care for you," before closing the door with a bang. Sighing, I looked out of the
Axel's Pov"Master, I will go get a soda water," Derek said as he came out of the car. I rested my head as I closed my eyes, feeling unease from the pit of my stomach. Is Leah okay? I hope Leah is okay.Beep, beep. The warning signal in my watch started beeping. I stood up suddenly. "Leah, what's wrong with her? Why is the watch beeping immediately after I left her?" I opened the car door and looked around, anxiety gnawing at me. "Where the hell is Derek?" I looked at my watch and started running back towards Leah's house, though it was far away. "Young master, where are you going?" Derek asked. "Leah is in trouble!" I shouted while running without turning back. Derek entered the car and drove towards me. I opened the car door and settled in. "Drive faster," I urged him, my face red with anxiety. I sunk my face into my palm."Oh God, this is exactly why I didn't want to leave Leah alone. Drive faster, Derek," I urged him again as I held my hair anxiously. "This is a street, ma
Leah's PovA week later,Pain, painI slowly opened my eyes, wincing against the harsh light in the room. As I tried to sit up, a searing pain shot through my shoulder, causing me to gasp and sink back onto the pillows. "Where am I?" I whispered to myself, feeling disoriented. Suddenly, Axel's voice filled the room, "You're awake," he said, setting a tray of fruits down on the bedside table. I managed a weak smile as he sat beside me, concern etched on his face. "How are you feeling?" he asked gently. Nodding, I replied, "I think I'm at the hospital, right?" He nodded in confirmation, his eyes never leaving mine.Looking at his face, I couldn't help but stifle a giggle as I suddenly used my free hand to cover my mouth. Axel's furrowed brow showed his confusion. "What's wrong?" he asked, his worry evident. But I couldn't contain my laughter, which soon turned into a fit of uncontrollable giggles, causing me to grimace in pain. "Ouch," I exclaimed, as Axel quickly steadied me, c
Axel's Pov As Leah came down from the car, I removed my glasses and waggled my eyebrows, "Hey baby," I said as I placed my hand on the car window. Leah sighed and came over to the driver's seat window, "Hey baby," she replied. I smiled and said, "Have a good day, baby. Remember to stay safe always." Leah rolled her eyes and said, "I'm just going to check out the store I will be using. I'll be home before you guys." I nodded and placed my hand on my cheek. Leah looked at me and asked, "What do you want?" I smiled and said, "Goodbye kiss." Leah smiled and agreed. She moved closer to me, and I edged closer, anticipating the kiss. But instead, Leah smirked and tugged at my ear, "My body is aching from your torment last night. Instead, have a nice time reconciling with your son." Leah then smiled at Jasper, who was busy tapping on his tablet in the passenger seat. "Goodbye, sweetheart," she said as she waved at Jasper. Jasper flashed her a smile, and I looked at Leah, feeling aggriev
