Steal a kiss
Last Updated:
2024-10-29 19:42:56The next morning, Alexandra had woken up at the brink of dawn. Her vision greeted the sleeping man on the antique sofa, facing the ceiling with his arm resting on his steadily heaving chest. She threw the blanket off her body, a cold gust spread over, goosebumps broke out on her sensitive skin.
She shifted to the wide-open Balcony door, another gust of wind invaded through the open space.
Still, in her pyjamas, she walked up to follow the fresh air. Dusky Indigo sky above her veiled the light, but not completely. It was enough for her sharp eyes to scan the vast property.
Her hot breath tangled with the cold air, forming a white cloud. Since these past few nights, her sleep had improved, unplagued by nightmares and recurring bad memories. Is it because her appetite was back? Or is it because her body is at the recovering stage?
She would occasionally forget to take her pills, even the ones for stopping nosebleeds. She must have eaten mor

Evan placed the breakfast on the table, now she had to wake Angela. She opened the pink door and smiled at her little Angel sleeping peacefully on the bed. Hugging her favorite Elsa plush toy. Evan patted the sleepy head. "Baby, wake up you have school today." Angela groaned, burying her head in the soft pillows. "I can go tomorrow." Evan chuckled and wrapped her arms around Angela's shoulders. "You can't skip school Baby princess." Evan chided playfully, sweeping Angela's messy hair off her face. Angela refused to open her eyes, stubbornly pretending to sleep. Evan crept her fingers up to her stomach, causing Anglea to release loud giggles. "Mama that tickles! Not fair!" Angela whined, wrapping her arms around Evan's neck. She planted a morning kiss on her mother's cheek. "Don't you want to meet your new friends?" Evan asked. "They can wait." Angela pouted and wrapped her tiny legs around Ev

"What is this bed doing here?" Jonathan asked, stupefied. They had their dinner at night after Jonathan came back. He entered the room to find a Full-Size bed next to her King-sized one. "Sleeping on the couch must be uncomfortable for you, so I told your men to bring another bed here." She said. The couch was too narrow to accommodate his large stature. So it would be wise for him to sleep on a bed. "Why don't you let me on your bed instead?" He asked with a cheeky smirk. "If you want to get stabbed in your sleep. Sure" She threatened with sadistic amusement. He braced his mouth together at that. If she wanted him to sleep on a bed, forcing him into the guest room would be a better idea. But instead, she permitted to share her room with him. Is she being concerned about him? "I want to hug you." He said, spreading his arms as he inched closer to her. "Stay back." She snarled, standing firm, ready for an attack.

"Why do you want Alexie anyway? You don't even love her!" Jordan gnashed her teeth, sharpening them to bite off Kyle's neck. Her Alexie deserved someone better than this asshole. Kyle snickered. "You are right. I don't love her," Kyle said. "Yet, I want her just for the thrill of it." Her father didn't care if she loved Kyle or the other way around. He wouldn't oppose if Alexandra decided to commit adultery. Alexandra wasn't the type of person to stay within the shackles of marriage. A loveless marriage at that. But Kyle wanted her, the satisfaction he would get to see her lose the battle. This will be a payback to all those insults she spat on him. To conquer that spitfire tongue of hers, bring her to his bed and show her place. Just the thought of her moaning under him made his blood fume with lust. "You're disgusting." Jordan spat, her stomach recoiled at Kyle's depravity along with the conc

"Stop being so hard on yourself." Jordan chided Alexandra, who mercilessly punched the daylight of the sandbag. Her knuckles turned purple, but she tenaciously kept going. "I need to get stronger!" Alexandra growled and the punches grew fierce. "Take a break already!" The sandbag was cut down to the ground by a fast-paced roundhouse kick. Kickboxing became a craze for Alexandra, and under Jordan's potent training, she mastered it in mere three months. Jordan applauded at the new milestone Alexandra reached. Alexandra's physique had changed drastically, developing muscles and even got taller by a few inches. Jordan handed the energy drink and grabbed Alexandra's butt, squishing them like stress balls. "Your ass got bigger." Jordan teased, earning an eye roll from Alexandra. "I know you like women, but keep those hands to yourself!" Alexandra snapped at her perverted best friend. "My bad." Jordan laugh

Jonathan arrived later than usual, after taking a shower he entered Alexandra's room.Lights were off except for the lava lamp illuminating on the nightstand. Alexandra lays soundless on the bed with her eyes peacefully closed. He smiled and sat next to her bed.He wondered how someone can look so gorgeous while sleeping, with her mouth partly opened. A little bit of drool sticking at the corner of her mouth. He wiped it off using his thumb. He was startled as she grabbed his wrist.Alexandra frowned and cast open her eyes."Were you asleep?" He asked.Clicking her tongue, she lets go of his hand. "No, I was practicing for my funeral."

It's was the day to rid all these plasters on her body, and Dr Sanders, the family doctor, did a great job removing them. Jonathan was a little sad he won't get to feed her anymore. He will miss that lovely feeling of pampering her. After taking a brief shower, Alexandra appeared wearing the bathrobe, busy drying her hair dribbling hair. Jonathan offered to dry it for her and she accepted it. Alexandra sat on the bed and he sat behind her. With gentle dabs, he dried her hair, being careful not to apply too much pressure, as if tending the dearest and delicate treasure in the world. Alexandra tried her hardest not to doze off, his touches calmed her overworked brain. "I heard your Vice President is resigning?" Jonathan asked, fiddling with her mild wet hair, inhaling the balmy smell of lavender. "Yes..." "Did you decide who the next VP will be?" The media made a big ruckus after the resign

Halton sat on his work desk, listening to some of the audio files Alexandra had sent. Jane Warren sat opposite to him, pretending to review the paperwork he handed her while secretly admiring how his face turned stoic as he listened. They were distracted by Halton's phone ringing beside his Macbook. He picked up the call without glancing at the ID. "Hello?" "It's me...Evan." A meek and hesitant voice said. He was taken aback hearing the soothing sound of the woman he loved. "What's up?" He asked, a smile adorning his handsomeness. Jane wondered who was capable enough to make him smile like that. Is he seeing someone? "Are you busy?" Evan asked, nervously biting her thumb. Halton instantly closed his Macbook. "No, what's wrong?" He asked worriedly. "I have a favour to ask...can we meet up at my house?" She asked, preparing herself to hear a refusal. Halton got up, surprising Jane Warre

"So you are my dada?" Angela asked. They were in Halton's car, on their way to his penthouse. "Yes, I am your real dada," Halton said proudly. "Then why didn't I see you before?" She cutely tilts her head in confusion. Before her attention moved again, playing with her favourite blonde-haired doll she named Elsa. Although she was reluctant to leave Evan, she decided to listen to her downhearted mother. "That's..." Halton couldn't come up with an immediate explanation, "Your mom and I separated a long time ago..." He said. "Then why are you here now?" Angela asked innocently. Of course, she had no idea what was going on with her parents or why her father appeared out of nowhere. "I am here to protect you," Halton said. If faith was kind to him, he wanted to protect his family forever. "But why is Mama mad at you?" "She is mad at me because it's Dada's fault for leaving her..." Ha

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

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.

Including Josaphine’s and she would not shy away from appeasing Josaphine to gain her goodwill.***The place was the classic American home.

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
Return of the CEO's Empress A happy ending?
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
Return of the CEO's Empress Red wedding
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
Return of the CEO's Empress Cursed bride
“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
