One’s PovI rushed over to the room as I tried to calm my beating heart. For a moment, I stopped walking to go over all it was that had just happened. Who was that strange man? And why did Alexander appear to be quite tensed about his presence? I could tell that something was wrong between the two of them and I was willing to get to the root of the whole situation.Did the strange man also say that he saw Alexander with another woman who he said was his fiancée?Different thoughts raged through my heart as I walked closer to the door. I turned the door knob and to my greatest shock, it was opened.“What the hell!” I muttered under my breath as I walked into the room and caught a glimpse of someone who was cuddled up on the bed.“Eleven?” I asked myself quietly as I clenched my fist in rage and started walking over to her. She seemed to be lost in an ocean of thoughts because she barely had an idea of when I came in.“What are you doing here?” I finally asked the minute I regained my
Amelia’s PovJust as Alexander predicted, I didn’t leave the room. It felt weird and strange that I had the liberty to do what I wanted since the keys were in my possession. However, for some reasons I couldn’t decipher, I felt the need to stay around Alexander.The man I had seen earlier seemed to be a threat to Alexander and I wasn’t willing to leave his side at this point. I returned to the room after some minutes of having some time to myself in the bathroom. One was engaged as she glared at me as though she was at the verge of tearing me apart. This was a strange decision, but I was willing to stick to it until the end.“You are really not planning to leave?” One asked again, with a look of confusion on her face. I gulped down hard and shook my head negatively. Memories of the past night with Alexander flushed past my brain and I couldn’t help wearing a smile.“Do you think this is funny? Wait until he learns that you have a child against his will!” One declared defiantly and
Alexander’s PovI approached the room after having my heart wrenching encounter with Grey. My heart was beating in rage and all I wanted to do at the moment was leave. There was still some days left for the conference, but I could feel trouble brewing since Grey had promised to deal with me. I wasn’t scared of him or anything of such, but I needed no one to tell me that the best thing I could do was staying away from him.Just then, I heard voices coming from the room and this caused me to lessen my steps. I slowly walked towards the room, listening with rapt attention and trying to figure out what they were talking about at the moment.I knew that they were never on good terms with each other, but I never expected their relationship to grow even more sour.“Why? Is the child I’m carrying a problem now? Are you going to lie that you weren’t the one who hid the contraceptive?”, I heard Amelia’s voice and for a minute, I thought that I had only heard wrongly.“Wait! What?”My heart thu
One’s PovI stared at Alexander for another time, trying to decipher why he suddenly made a decision to leave when it was not yet time to. I knew that Eleven’s presence was the core reason for everything and thoughts of that ached my heart greatly.I clenched my fist in fury as I gazed at Alexander who was now throwing his clothes into his bag. Eleven crouched low on the ground, not having much to do, but not removing her eyes from Alexander.“Are you okay?” Eleven asked Alexander in a soft voice that made my heart break.Alexander turned to look at her and for the first time, I saw something different in his eyes… he looked at her in a way and manner different from how he stared at any other person. “I’m fine, Amelia”, he said and for a minute, I thought that I just heard wrongly.I jerked up immediately and turned to him, hoping that I was dreaming or having a nightmare.Did he just call her by her name?My heart sank as I walked across to him, with a confusing look in my eyes.“Wh
Amelia’s PovI paced around the room for the hundredth time, with different thoughts raging through my mind. Firstly, I thought of Alexander and why he suddenly decided to leave and then, I thought of One who was clearly disturbed by the information.She walked out of the room immediately Alexander left and that caused my heart to thump in anxiety. Trouble seemed to be brewing and the worst laid in the fact that i couldn’t place my hands on what it might be. Just then, one walked into the room, with a big smile on her face and a sudden look of excitement. “Why are you smiling like that?” I questioned, with a small frown on my face, searching through her eyes as though the answer to my question laid there.She cleared her throat and walked closer to me, with her hands folded to her chest.“Alexander is looking for you…at the warehouse close to the exit of the building”, she said and walked over to the bed where she sat down and crossed her legs.I turned to gaze at her, trying so har
Alexander’s PovI got back into the room after returning from the conference quarters where I had to sign off some papers to indicate a closure on my part. Back in the room, I met the absence of Amelia and the presence of One who was sitting and gazing at the ground as though something was wrong.“Is everything okay? Where is Eleven?” I asked One who took in a deep breath and turned towards my direction.“It seemed as if she got a call from someone. But she left even before I could say a word”, she explained while I drifted off in thoughts.There was absolutely no one around who Amelia knew and there was no way anyone would call for her attention.“Who called for her?” I asked One who wore a confused look that suggested that she had no answer to the question.I dashed out of the room while she trailed behind me, clearly wondering why I appeared to be so concerned for Amelia.“From what I saw, I think she left the premises”, One dropped and for a minute, I thought I had only heard wron
Amelia’s PovI opened my eyes to realize that I was in a mansion…very much different from the one which I had been since the past few months. Something felt wrong and I could feel this right from the minute I opened my eyes and met the cold gaze coming from Grey.“What the hell!” I yelped in shock as I jerked to my feet, looking around and trying to ascertain how and when I got to the house.“You don’t have to think too much. I knocked you out while you were at the ware house”, Greg explained, with a wicked grin spread across his face.“Where is Alexander?” I asked the very first question that came into my mind.He stared at me for a while, as though he had a bunch of thoughts running through his mind. Afterwards, he kept mute and started walking away.“Where is Alexander?” I asked again, with my heart beating out of my chest and my body shivering in fear. The very first encounter I had with this particular man was not funny and I needed no one to tell me that he was a lot more deadl
One’s PovThe atmosphere appeared to be nice for me. Inasmuch as Alexander was quite nervous and anxious, I could tell that he wasn’t going to go far with that.Earlier, I had met with Grey, the strange man who kept asking me if Alexander was my fiancé as he claimed. I knew that if I wanted to get rid of Eleven, there was need to get a partner and he seemed to be the best I could lay my hands on at the moment. “Tell me everything”, he had said to me while I took in a deep breath and thought of what I was about do for another time. “I would tell you something about him and you have to promise that you would get rid of her”,‘I had said to Grey who looked at me with an interesting look after which he nodded his head in affirmation.From the thirst in his eyes, I could see how direly he needed information that had to do with Alexander.“Tell me all what you know about Alexander and I would get rid of her”, he promised and for a minute, my heart raced in excitement.“Alexander leaves in
