Everyone recoiled in the office auditorium as if a looming black hole sucked the oxygen in the air out of their lungs. The black hole, namely Alexandra Winchester. The woman didn't need words to give people the jitters. Alexandra had tried her best not to show any sort of impediment in her professional behavior, but the agitation was like a knife against her throat. It was bleeding out for everyone to see. Alexandra pulled herself together, wearing a professional smile. She inclined the mic closer. "Good morning, ladies and gentlemen. As you all know, I left the position of the Vice President vacant for quite a while. So, after great consideration, We finally elected the new Vice President of Royal Steel." The employees exchanged eager glances."Worry not. The person is someone who everyone in this company is familiar with." Alexandra eased the tension. "He has shed his blood, sweat, and tears for this position, being the third highest shareholder in this company."The members brok
It was Sunday. The perfect day to get married. Alexandra would have never thought in a thousand years that she would find love again. Not after the disastrous relationship she had with Edward. Giving up was the only option left for her. At least, that’s what she thought before she stumbled upon Jonathan. The churchyard gleamed with fairy lights. The seats were empty, as there were no guests. Without her father to walk her down the aisle. No fancy wedding dress. Instead, she wore a white satin blouse and a white skirt that reached her ankles—holding a bouquet of white roses. Jonathan smiled at her as she walked toward the man she loved with whole her heart. A smile on her pink-tinted lips, which he could see through the sheer veil. He took her hand in his and kissed it.The pastor cleared his throat, bringing them out of the little love bubble they had wrapped around themselves, and began the vows. “Alexandra and Jonathan, have you come here freely and without reservation to give yo
“Please, honey. I want you inside me now.” Patience. He had it in spades. But after hearing those enticing words from her luscious red lips, his whole body throbbed with bottled-up lust, tugging straight at his cock. If he didn’t let it out now, he might lose it. He had never been so frantic in his entire existence. For all this time, he had been a snob about being able to control himself, but the woman beneath him, naked and spreading her pussy for him to claim, made his control shatter like a glass that was heated beyond its melting point. He just prayed he would last a second once he was inside her. The fear he won’t make it makes his chest clench. Aside from watching p*rn and hearing some techniques from his fellas, he had no practical experience, which lessens his chance of satisfying her.Even so, he had a lot of time to think about what he would do to her once she let him. Vividly detailed plans. He bent and picked up his pants, which he had previously discarded on the floo
[TRIGGER WARNING: There are a few scenes in this part that the readers might find uncomfortable.]"Alexie got married?!" Jordan shouted on the phone, incapable of believing what she was hearing. "Yes, and she was very happy," Halton's voice came from the other end along with loud typing noises. Jordan thrust her fingers through her hair, frustration creeping on her like prickly tentacles. "Can't you see? This is NOT GOOD!"Halton sighed exasperatedly on the phone. "Trust me, Jo. She is happy. That's all that matters." Jordan stomped back and forth in the room, her footsteps echoing furiously on the ground. "This is BAD. She is losing herself! Just... just like what happened with Edward." The typing noises stopped and she could tell Halton was leaning back on his work desk, pinching on his nose bridge right now. "Jonathan is not Edward. He is a man of integrity." Halton began, trying to make her see through his perspective. "He reminds me of Grandpa Ben a lot. I see why Alexie woul
Alexandra woke up early, feeling Jonathan sliding into her and she let him, even if she was sore from last night. They didn't stop at one round. They were at it all night long and Jonathan made sure she was thoroughly impregnated. Nothing in this world could beat the pleasure of feeling Jonathan's thick, veiny cock pushing in and out of her. Lazy this morning and nothing like last night, where he gave it to her fast and rough and got her drunk on orgasms until she collapsed, feeling boneless and ultimately euphoric. He took it upon himself to fuck every man out of her system that was before him, and it worked. She didn't need to think of anything or anyone else at that point. She could orgasm just by witnessing him come. The way his thick brown brows would tighten up between his forehead, the sounds he made—Oh the noises! She loved the noises that came out of his mouth. A mixture of whimpers and groans. It was a delight watching this big burly man break apart inside her. The most sa
"Good work, Olivia." Jonathan passed an important file to her, smiling brightly as if he had just had the jackpot. He had been overly pleasant towards everyone today and Olivia will get her bonus real soon, which made her want to squeal with excitement. Olivia had noticed the platinum band twinkling on Jonathan's finger and Steve told her about Jonathan getting married to the love of his life, Alexandra Winchester—Now Alexandra Winchester Jonas. But didn't they break up? Have they got back together already? Whoa, that was fast.A moment later, Steve stepped in with Jacob. "Could you excuse us for a sec?" Jacob politely asked through his gritted teeth. Olivia nodded and walked out of the office. "What the fuck, bro!" Jacob yelled, banging his palms on Jonathan's work table. "Language," Jonathan warned, his face hardening like frigid ice. "You got married?! To Alexandra Winchester? ARE YOU SERIOUS?"Jonathan shut his laptop and met his brother's glare coldly. "Yes.""She took you
"Stop teasing me like that," Jonathan warned her, even though he was enjoying it just as badly as he didn't want to admit it. "Look at you, all flustered by me. I won't let any other woman make you feel this way." Alexandra whispered possessively.Jonathan found her overly flirty behavior kind of odd. It was out of character, but he didn't mind. "You seem to be in a cheerful mood today. What's the occasion?" Jonathan asked curiously. She stopped slicing up her roasted beef and looked at him, smiling. "Nothing much." Her voice didn't match her cheery smile. "You sure?" Jonathan didn't want to badger her, but the change in her tonality unsettled him.As if she had realized something, her cheerful mask slipped away. "I was a little insecure..." she said reluctantly. "About?"Alexandra poked her tongue against her cheek. "Forget it. It's a stupid reason." She said, continuing to lunch. "Then is it OK for me to assume?" He asked.Alexandra shifted uncomfortably in her seat. "Yes." She
"Son."Halton regretted picking up his father's unexpected call. "What is it now?" His tone was disrespectful. He could hear his father churning his teeth on the other end. "I'm sorry."A pregnant silence followed. Halton stared at the phone in disbelief. For a moment, he thought it was from a wrong number. Or maybe he misheard it. "What did you say?" He demanded."I know I've been... very..." Alessandro fumbled to find the right word. "You've been a controlling asshole who ruined our lives, father." Halton countered, feeling complacent. Alessandro let out a low grumble as he exhaled. "Right. I would like to apologize for it."What the hell is he plotting now? Alessandro tempted Halton to yell curse words at his own father right now. "An apology will fix nothing." Halton craned his head toward the kitchen where Angela was making a loud 'Pew! Pew!' noises, spraying her jumbo-sized water gun all over the kitchen. Evan had gone to visit one of her friends, so he was the one babysitt
One could hear in the bleak eerie hallways of the asylum the clattering of chains, as a man dragged it through the metallic floor. His black-and-white striped prisoner’s clothing had bloodstains on it. His pace was slow and wobbly because of the heavy chains attached to his legs and hands and bound skin rotting off along the rusting metal.“Sir, we brought him,” the guard said and looked keenly at the captive. He ducked his head, his lips drawn into a straight line, his eyes covered with his overgrown bangs so they could only see only the white portion of his eyes through it.“Good, bring him in.”The guard pushed open the interrogation room. A person inside could not see or listen to what was outside. The captive was silent the whole time, his eyes still down, looking at the guard’s legs as he followed and another guard closely stalking behind. In the middle of the dim room, there was a light bulb just above the wooden table, the only source of light in that entire room, with two cha
Their dilemma wasn’t over just yet. They had to gain the approval of one more person before their wedding ceremony, and that was Jonathan’s mother, Josephine.Alexandra insisted on building a better relationship with her upset mother-in-law. If Jonathan could impress her fearsome and bull-headed father, then she could coax Jonathan’s mother into accepting them too.Before their wedding takes place, she wanted everyone’s blessings. Including Josaphine’s and she would not shy away from appeasing Josaphine to gain her goodwill.***The place was the classic American home. A porch, a long veranda, high rooftops, and a yard that was big as a children’s park. It seemed like Josephine liked to keep the place uncomplicated and clean.Jonathan’s mother, according to his words, was the finest cook in the world. A woman who liked to do her own chores and leave them to the housekeeper. Who dressed simply, loved handling household affairs, and went to church religiously every single Sunday and pra
The soft silk sheets rustled as Alexandra stretched her arm to cuddle her husband. Her core was still sore from the slow-burning, passionate sex they had all night long. Letting out a groan, she buried her face into his neck which was specked with dark stubble. Oh, how she loved his beard. The rough texture was so satisfying to caress, and the feel of a stubbled cheek grazing her between her thighs was simply titillating.As she draped her long leg around his waist, a sharp, needle-like pain shot in her womb.She lifted the duvet and to her panic; she saw two blots of bloodstains on the sheets, mocking her. Her breath shriveled up in her throat and a malaise emerged in her womb.Swinging her legs to the floor, she rushed to the bathroom and removed her panties, and inserted her finger inside her, coating them with warm blood.“You will never be a mother.” The devil hissed, drawing out its forked tongue. “You will never get back what you’ve lost.”Her hand flew to her mouth to prevent
Sunrays poured through the tall windows of the church’s bridal suite, giving the white room a golden touch. The ladies were all busy tending to the bride’s wedding dress.Evangeline could barely breathe withch her bosom caged in the tight corset. “I will die.” She wheezed, holding on to the vanity table.“Oh, you won’t! I will see to it.” Catherine said, determined to make the dress fit. It seemed perfect when they tried it out in the bridal boutique.“I will become the first person to die for fashion.” Evan joked.Alexandra laughed, listening to this as she flipped a glossy page of a fashion magazine. She closed it and approached Evan to see what was going on with the dress.“I think it would be better if we pinned it first,” Alexandra suggested.“Pass me the pin, dear,” Catherine said, holding the edges of the corset tight.Alexandra skimmed through the small box of safety pins and passed it to her mother. Catherine pressed the ends of the corset securely and pinned them together. “
TRIGGER WARNING: The following chapter may be upsetting to some viewers. It contains violence and gore.***Blackness leaked into Gabriel’s subconscious like thick tar, impeding him from registering his surroundings for a few minutes. He blinked off the bleary vision and discovered himself in a bleak chamber, tied up in a metal chair with ropes that bit into his skin. The only source of light was the pale yellow lightbulb hanging above his head.He felt brainless, as one would get when drunk on spirit. He tried to recall where he was before ending up in this place. At the police station, the officers had locked him up for several days and questioned him for evidence. The trial was still ongoing, but an anonymous bailed him, giving the officers a hefty amount to free him. Gabriel didn’t know anyone who loved him so much to bail him out of jail, even after being aware of what evils he did. The moment he got out of the police station, a masked, who had bailed him asked to join him to me
The steel door shut before Anastasia with a rude screech and an ear-splitting rhythm of metal against metal, resounding around the cell walls and into her ears like pinballs. Anastasia gripped the metal bars and squeezed herself against it. “How long will I be here?” She asked.“Until someone comes in here and bails you.” The forty-something-year-old blonde officer sneered.She had confessed all of her crimes to the police this morning and stupidly thought they would let her go home. Home? Where will she go? Mama didn’t want her anymore. Papa will soon be prosecuted for all the crimes he had done in his lifetime.Kameron probably didn’t want her anymore, since their marriage was incomplete. Silvano was her only way out of here. She hoped he would come and free her.If he still loved her.“You smell like periods.”It was then Anastasia realized she wasn’t alone. A brunette prostitute, who was past her prime, hunched in the corner on the bench, covering her knees around her arms. She wr
All the guests who had witnessed the scene gasped in dread. Some of them, including Merideth Parker and Thomas Clarke, ran for their lives, realizing it wasn't safe to be in the presence of this maniac who just shot his wife. The metal gun slipped from Gabriel’s hand, his face sagged and his eye enlarged out of its sockets, seeing his wife bleeding on the floor. “C-Cathie…”His legs immediately took him towards Catherine, but Kameron lunged forward and boxed him in the face, knocking him to the ground and pinning him to the floor.Anastasia clung to her Catherine and cried helplessly, not knowing what to do. Alexandra stood there and stared expressionlessly at her mother, whose blood spilled out of her body. Catherine fluttered her eyes to keep them open. The tears in her eyes made those honey-brown irises shine like topaz as she gazed at Alexandra.If she was to die, she wanted to do it seeing her oldest daughter whom she had wronged all these years.Silvano came up to them and drop
Alexandra’s fierce, amber eyes bore right into Anastasia, who was on the verge of passing out from the built-up anxiety. Her weak knees buckled and she could barely pull herself together. The bouquet fell, the roses scattered, and she stared back at her sister in horror at what was yet to come.Placing a black-gloved hand on her chest, Alexandra put on an apologetic expression and swept her gaze over the audience. “My sincere apologies for the interruption, ladies and gentlemen.”Gabriel stood up and stalked towards her, his face heavy with anger. “What the hell are you doing here?!”“Can’t you tell? I was invited.” Alexandra lifted her chin, a gesture of disdain.The deep red shade on Gabriel’s face paled when he turned towards Kameron, who had a devilish smirk upon seeing Alexandra. “My heartily welcome, Lady Alexandra.” Kameron greeted.The audience broke out into a cacophony of mutters and whispers. They looked at each other with perplexed faces. What was going on here? And why di
“Looks like our beautiful bride is ready.” Kameron’s ridiculing voice broke Anastasia from her trance. She looked back at the woman in the mirror. Her doe-like brown eyes had turned red after she had mourned the night away. She had never shed a single tear for her grandfather’s death, but now misery had plagued her ability to realize the outcome of her past deeds. No one can escape fate. No one. “I am-,” Her voice had died out. She couldn’t ignore the pain in her throat. “Save that for the vows,” Kameron warned. He approached for a closer look at his bride, whose eyes were still glued to herself in the mirror. It was then he realized how beautiful she looked in the ivory white wedding dress. The makeup artist concealed all the wounds and bruises he had given her under that makeup. Her eyes seemed so clear and pure. She resembled Catherine physically, but her personality leans on the contrary. She wasn’t brave, nor had she had the unwavering disposition
