Celia’s POV
It is really hard. Really, really hard trying to cook when you have a horny, caring and possessive husband making you wet for no reason. I cringe when I look for making words for what he is doing to me beneath his shirt I wore. I am making the sauce by mixing gochugaru, oyster sauce, minced garlic, and black pepper together in a small bowl to add it to the pan in which the onions, beef and jalapenos are being cooked. I am making this spicy stir fried noodles, if only he lets me.
Did I mention him horny earlier? He is making me one now. I wouldn’t have cared how many marks he left on my neck when I was cooking. But, his hands are to be stopped before they travelled too south. I squeeze my legs in an attempt to put a halt for his luring torments. I should have known. His rough hands lingering between my soft thighs is much worse.
“I am trying to cook.” I
Celia’s POV I know I am not ready to meet them. It doesn’t mean I want Alexander to meet them. For a second I wished for Deaneries flying on her dragon to take us away to some distant lands. I also wished for a heart attack to Jonathan Davis. Don’t take me wrong. Since, I am here I would give him cardiopulmonary resuscitation (CPR) and later he will be sent to hospital. In that chaos, we will not need to talk to them. “I need a minute alone with Celia.” Alex told Elijah to which he nodded and left us in that lawn. Alexander turned to with a look on his face which says a lot of apologetic speech to come out. He took my face in his hands. He is warm. This is only making me dissolve into more grief and anger. Argh! How I planned my day! He is about to open his mouth to say something. I interrupted not giving him the chance. “I get it. I will leave with Elijah.
Celia's POV When I was a teen after my mother died, Cayden took me out for a small vacation, which is in fact a way out from the reality. One thing he never guessed is that one could see the hill on which my mother died without binoculars. The whole plan and purpose of that distraction in the name of a trip had no meaning at all. It was like I ran from something for years and at last, I thought I was free when I actually fell right into the arms of that thing I have been avoiding. This is the least I could describe about the encounter with Jonathan and Amy and most importantly, my meeting with Alexander for the first and next time. Maybe, the view of Casa Del Mar can be related to that. I have never believed in fate. But, after everything happened, I came to a conclusion that there are two fates I could not avoid in any circumstances. One- the departure of my loved ones, possibly deaths. Two- the intrusion of the people who hate
Celia’s POV Ever imagined waking up to the chirping sound of birds, rumbling of leaves, rush of breeze, a howl of something unpredictable, smell of soil, and woods? And yet, you are still in that classy white apartment. I thought it is a dream, staring out of the window at everything that falls under the category of verdant. So many plants, leaves and leaves and plants. I feel like am suddenly teleported to a cabin in the middle of a forest. But, the room in which I am sitting on a bed looks nothing like a cabin. It is cool, not like an ice cool but cool cool. I looked aside and he isn’t there. He did a drama when he woke up and I wasn’t there. For a second, I thought I am kidnapped. Who am I kidding? Who would kidnap me? Probably Amy. But, she would never put me on a bed like this unless it has a bomb fixed under it. The windows are definitely picture windows that are stationary, made to give the right amount
Celia’s POV I am lying flat on my stomach being semi naked, my hands rested under my chin. He is beside me looking at the ceiling and lost in thoughts. After a prolonged silence, I tried to make a conversation. “Shall we..” “That morning, when I was going to London, you knew you were pregnant. You seemed disturbed and I felt that something is off. You were hiding that truth. And I know, Celia. You are hiding something again.” I lick my lips getting ready for this inevitable conversation. “I wasn’t sure that I was pregnant. It is just my emotional state running from here to there. I have been over thinking. I am sure as hell it sucks and you don’t start that too. Come on, our French toast is waiting.” He smiles a little and let this go which is so unlike him. Maybe, he is trying to give me space. He didn’t ask me if I will join the sh
Celia’s POV The rain pattered against the window harshly. It looks like it is not going to stop until it break the glass down and flood this whole building. My feet could not touch the floor since the bed is elevated than a normal one would. I sat at its edge and fall back onto the mattress not knowing what I am thinking and not knowing how to understand myself. I have not noticed him opening the door and entering the room. When I squeeze my eyes shut and opened them, he is above me looking worriedly, “Are you alright?” I envisaged someone pulling him from above far away from me. “Celia? Is something wrong?” He looked to his back at the ceiling and turned to me again. That’s when I know, I am not in a right mind. It’s not until his thumb traced my cheekbone, I realized there are tears running down onto the mattress. I hold his face in my cold hands fearing th
Celia’s POV “He made you do what?” Ryan asked with an expression that is shouting impossible and unbelievable. “He asked me to talk about everything happened in his absence. He wanted me to think of them and realise that it has happened because I was made to believe that he betrayed me.” I explained for the fifth time. “I am afraid he is going to take my place now. Does it worked?” “Yeah. I no more think of the past five months. But, I am acting weirdly. We were so happy. We cooked, kissed, slept and then, they arrived. It was like everything we built again just collapsed. I felt home until then. After their visit, when Alex talked about going back to New York and house, I feel,.. I don’t know. I am terrified like it is some sort of danger. My insides were squirming. They are shouting not to go back. And again the very thought of parting with Alexander is like ripping my chest. I don’t understand what I want and what I feel. I lied to him.” Ryan looks at me like he is
Celia’s POV Sometimes, in order to see the face of reality, you have to come into light. In my case, the light fell up on me. Universe has laws. I decided to obey it for now. My phone has been continuously ringing ever since I got in the car. Elijah would ask me if I am alright, he told me to pick up the phone. Maybe he figured out it is of no use to talk to a statue, he silently drives to wherever he is taking me. It is just like what happened five months ago. Right when I thought, my life is getting better, when I got a clarity about myself, everything turned upside down again. I regret being moody and beating a dead horse last two days at that forest. I shouldn’t have let those toxic thoughts consume me. At least, Alexander and I would have had a one happy last night. I shut my eyes, letting all the heaviness in my heart dropping out. “It is going to be fine, Mrs. King.” Elijah assured looking at me in the mirror be
Alexander’s POV “No. You can’t be seen with her, not when there are people out their trying their best to keep an eye on you. Stay where you are. It is for Celia’s sake.” How can Xavier could give me orders like that when he witnessed what she has gone through? He could not just lock me but tied my hands with stuff I could not leave behind. It has been three fucking days since I saw her and talk to her. She would not lift my calls, would not respond my messages and the worst of them, she didn’t say it back. I could not stand this anymore. It is easy being disguised and enter her apartment. I passed Ryan’s house telling myself that she won’t be there at any cost even though my insides are saying the opposite. I knocked on her door. It is locked and no one opened. I feel the cold wetness in my fist. For a second, I imagined Celia hitting me like she did last time looking angrily while inspecting the
