Back at Grey’s house, One was in her room, pondering on how miserable her life was and how there didn’t seem to be a way out of it.At first, when she started loving Alexander, she had thought that it was fate. She started having vivid imaginations of them ending up together and all of that gave her a sort of hope which she never knew existed. But then, in a split second, all of that went down the drain, as though it never existed. A slight knock on her door startled her and to her greatest surprise, she found Grey, standing by the door with a massive frown on his face.Her heart dropped that minute, but she wore a straight face as though she weren’t moved or concerned with his appearance.“What are you doing here?” She asked sternly, peering piercingly into his eyeballs.Grey clicked his teeth and walked into the room, with his hands folded to his chest. He gazed at One intently, after which he walked closer to her, with a dead glare on his face.“So…your relationship with Alexande
Grey couldn’t believe his ears. In all his business with One, he never made it known to her that he placed a tracker on Alexander’s car. So how was it possible that she sounded so sure about the location? “Repeat what you just said”, he demanded as he walked over to her, filling up the steps she left just as she went backwards.“I just tried to say that I would like to return to Alexander’s mansion. It is a lot better for me, and I would ease you of any stress my presence here might have cost you. And so, I would be glad if you help me with the location”, One said, trying so hard to appear and sound bold and aplomb.Her body was shaking fervently and the more she looked into his eyes, the more it looked as if he was going to pounce on her in the next minute.He scoffed and finally darted his gaze away from her. He walked back to his seat and slouched into it, with his hands placed on his chin and his eyes still fixated on her.“So…you know that I have an idea of where Alexander live
Amelia’s PovI sat down on the cold ground in my room, with tissue papers scattered around in a circular motion. I barely got enough sleep all through the night after the weird and heartbreaking statement that came off Alexander’s lips.It was meant to be a great night. Even, I ensured I made dinner and I summoned up such courage to tell him how I felt for him.The last thing I expected was him telling me to get rid of the child I had in my womb. That was totally uncalled for and I couldn’t help the way my heart shattered.“Cruel being! You want to get rid of your child?” I screamed on top of my lungs as I blew into another tissue and flung it across the room.I knew that I was yet to tell him that the child was his, because I had no idea of how his reaction would be. But then, was he that heartless that he would want to kill a poor innocent child?Did he even care about me? What if I die in the process of taking away the child? What would he do? He should have just told me that he
Alexander’s Pov“This baby is yours, Alexander!” Amelia screamed out of her lungs and for a minute, I thought that I had just heard wrongly.“What?”Slowly, I shifted my gaze back to her, struggling to keep my feelings at bay, even if it was quite hard.She was crying, and her eyes carried a sort of pain I haven’t seen in a while. More tears streamed out of her eyes just as she looked at me. “What did you say?” I asked in a voice that sounded like a whisper, just as I walked closer to her.She moved backwards, as though I was going to hurt her with any chance I got.“Stop moving backwards. What did you say?” I asked again.She took in a deep breath, ran her hands into her head and fell to the ground.“The baby is yours! Now you can kill me if you want to”, she yelled out of her lungs and increased the intensity of her tears.I was stuck and dumb that for a minute, all I could do was stare. She looked like a lost young woman, and realizing that I was the reason behind it broke me to t
Amelia’s PovThis was it. It might probably be the end, or the beginning of something. I had no idea of what it would be, but a part of my heart was soaked in fear.I had just come open to Alexander and I totally had no idea of what that would cost me. Would he kill me? Or would he accept me?These were the questions that clouded my heart just as I paced around my room…with sweats dripping from my forehead.I tried so hard to stay calm, but then the tension was so hard to ignore. He walked out on me right after I told him the truth and that left me so many thoughts.For one hour, I waited…hoping that he would return with an answer. All I wanted at this point was an answer and I couldn’t help but wish that it would be one that would keep me happy.I wanted Alexander. I had no idea of why I had such desires for him, but I guess fate was involved.He was a cruel, cold and heartless being. But then, being around him was the safest I’ve felt in a while:I walked over to the mirror in my r
Amelia and Alexander held each other in their arms, just as they walked around the garden that evening. They didn’t say a word, but the way they stared at each other was able to communicate how they felt currently. “This feels like the happiest day in my life”, Amelia confessed as she took a pause and stopped walking.She had tears in her eyes, but she knew that she cried enough already. “It’s the same for me. I never knew that I could be this happy after everything I’ve been through”, Alexander replied and blew out hot air from his lips.Amelia stopped walking at that point. She threw a questioning look at him, hoping that he would open up and answer the different questions she had for him.“For a while now, I wondered why you brought in girls as slaves. Do you mind telling me?” Amelia asked as she held his hand and led him to a chair inside the garden.Alexander chuckled calmly and nodded his head in affirmation.“Of course… I can tell you”, he replied and caressed her hands lovin
Back at Grey’s mansion, there was trouble brewing. One was successful in getting Grey to sleep, but then, Grey’s fiancée caught her right before she was done.“You really drugged him?” She asked and startedpacing around the room.“Just shut up!” One yelled out of her lungs.She had no idea of what she was doing. She was tensed and scared, but she wasn’t ready to let her see it.“If you say another word, I would ensure that he dies!” One threatened, causing the lady to open her eyes in shock.“What? Please, don’t kill him…he’s all I’ve got”, she pleaded, shaking as though she was at the verge of passing out.One stood to her feet hurriedly and grabbed her phone away from her hands. She used a vase and smashed it on her head, right before the lady could say another word.Now that they both of them were knocked out, she took in a deep breath and returned to her quest of picking out Alexander’s particular location.Just then, something clicked her mind and rather than just taking the loc
One’s PovI successfully left Grey’s mansion without getting caught. This was luck and nothing less than that. It was quite hard to curtail the excitement I felt, especially because I had an idea of where to meet with Alexander.Grey’s phone was currently with me and not only was it going to serve as a direction for me, it would also deprive Grey his desire to harm Alexander. That tracker was his only means of getting to Alexander, and I was glad that I took it away from him.At this, I couldn’t wait to break the information to him. I wanted to tell him how bad Grey was and how he already learned of where he lived in. With the excitement burning in my heart, I made my way to the location that blinked on the map.My eyes squinted a bit when I observed that he was going to a mall. That was quite strange for his kind of person.He never left the mansion, except for important businesses that had to do with his company. Seeing that he was currently at the mall was quite strange.But sti
