Jasira watched as he strode out of her room hastily and the feeling of emptiness overwhelmed her. "Fuck Maxwell," She cursed under her breath as she stared into space. She can't believe she want him to fuck her despite how rough he was. How could she be horny for the devil? She slammed her palm over her and sighed deeply. What started as disgusting and hatred was slowly turning into the opposite. She couldn't believe she looked forward to it when Amy was teasing her about it in the afternoon. Oh! She is fucked up. She crawled out of her bed to the bathroom. She was going to shower and sleep without having anything cause the regret she was feeling now was okay to fill her stomach. ***** "What happened Maxwell?" Alejandro spoke into the phone as he strode gently back to his room. "Did he leave the house?" "No, he seemed to have a lot of people working for him outside." "Hmmm." Alejandro hummed stroking his chin as he closed the door behind him an
"What happened at the mall?" He asked gazing into her light hazel eyes. His face was stoic and portrayed no emotion. "Jasira," He called impatiently when she refused to answer. Jasira peeked at him before staring at the floor back. His question caught her off-guard that she was out of words. Everything that had happened at the mall came rushing to her but she quickly blocked them out. They were useless, very useless. She shouldn't think about them. The mystery box was nothing to her and before she could even tell him anything, she must find out who she was first. She slowly raised her head and stared at him softly. She was disturbed and confused about whether to lie or tell the truth. Her soft eyes lingered on his cold emotionless face and trembled at his cold gaze towards her. She swallowed her lump and rubbed her temple. "Nothing happened my lord," She answered making her voice steady and unflinching. Her heart skipped when Alejandro's eyes glinted with something
Jasira sobbed silently as Maxwell pushed her towards the door, she had no energy in her to be stubborn. She was already regretting why she didn't tell Alejandro about the boxes, she remembered how Alejandro was changing for her. He had changed, he was not as aggressive to her as before but she spoiled everything with her lies. He even gave her a chance to tell him the truth yet she still lied, something broke in her, something familiar she knew too well, her heart. It was shattering into pieces, each piece digging into her body like sharp daggers. "Argh!" A loud painful wince suddenly left her mouth as her hands were snatched behind her and her wrist was bonded by a tight cable. Her shoulders were bent and it hurt so much adjusting to the wrong position they were bent to, she couldn't believe that she was back to this stupid position. Why must she put herself in this position every time? "Now, move." The Maxwell snapped pushing her in. Jasira didn't argue, she didn'
Jasira cuddled on the cold floor shivering, her growling stomach reminding her that she had not had anything to eat since she was thrown here. Even with all the crisis she was in, she was not ready to meet the devil, yesterday he was like a tickling bomb and she was not ready to meet him like that. He was never going to forgive her for this, she made him lose his trust in her, and she could see how hurt he was. Is he going to kill her? The thought made her shiver against the cold floor. She drawled her knees to her chest while lying on the cold floor, a single tear left her eye as her mind wandered about all that had happened to her. She seemed to be going from one nemesis to another. She was only scared that was why she lied to him, she was shocked at the new changes in her life she suddenly became the devil's girl then she had a stalker who was messing with her. Months ago, she was nobody and now, she had become everything worse. She was still shivering on the flo
"You were blabbing something earlier?" His eyes smoldering around her like a prey with his lips curved to a side which made him look like a psychopath. "Did you think I believed that?__ that crap!" He yelled banging his hand on the chair arm he sat on. She jerked back falling to the ground in the process before kneeling straight. With the way he was reacting, there was nothing that she could say to confuse him, she could only seek his mercy right now. She lifted her head and her gaze met up with bottomless cold blue eyes smouldering against her making her bite her lip to avoid sobbing out. "I... I...what can I do to make you believe me, I really do not know anything past what I have told you." Each word left her mouth with great difficulty, minding each word so it wouldn't annoy the devil in her front. Alejandro straightened up, he knew she was telling the truth because by the time he cracked those puzzled boxes, it was a bunch of useless information that was there
It was unbearable for her at this moment, she was seeing stars and on the verge of giving up. Her eyes closed with every bit of strength In her slipping away finally, she throwed back her head ready to succumb to darkness when a heavy footstep echoed in her head. She didn't leave her position, maybe if he saw her on the verge of death, he would report to that bastard and she would be eventually released. But she was shocked when she noticed the rope binding her wrists together gently slipped off. He was releasing her after these days, immediately she realized she was free, she quickly made to stand up not minding the dizziness overwhelming her. She slumped back instantly but was quickly caught by strong arms. "Save...me." She muttered to the strange strong arms catching a sniff of familiar cologne before darkness encircled her. Alejandro stared at the lifeless Jasira in his arms, he was here with the guard to release her. Immediately she saw that she was free,
"Alejandro just arrived," Amy said it was like a bomb was dropped on her as she heard that, the room suddenly became tiny as she felt hot deep within her, she didn't know when her breathing started to come out heavily and quickly. A gentle arms wrapped around her rubbing her back gently. "Calm down, Jasira, you are hypervilating." "It's okay," Amy said gently taking her to the bench and sitting her down. "He is not going to hurt you." She was not sure of that but Jasira needed some assurance. She rested her head on her shoulder and gently caressed her back until she settled down and her breath came out slowly with a rhythm. "Are you feeling better now?" She asked gently rubbing her back. Jasira closed her eyes briefly "Yes, thank you." She answered lowly and Amy sighed pitying her. *Ten minutes later*Jasira threw some popcorn in her mouth absentmindedly as she stared blankly at the TV, she shouldn't be watching TV or eating popcorn. She should be practicing how she w
The early sunrise tinted the sky finding its way through the mini room, the morning was peaceful but not so long. Jasira trembled from her sleep muttering some inaudible words, her low muttering soon became louder and clearer. "It was not my idea, don't kill me, please. Please! Help! Alejandro!" She screamed flying up from her sleep drenched in sweat. She stared blankly at the wall panting loudly. She was okay! She roamed her hand all over her body looking for the blood she was drenched in back at her dream. It was all a dream. She assured herself climbing down the bed shakingly. "You are okay, Jasira," She muttered assuringly to herself as she walked wobbly to the ensuite. This mission would be the end of her, she had never had a terrible nightmare like this, the supposed lord caught her, stabbed her arm, and dragged her by the hair to feed her to his dogs. Yes, that was scary. She needed to opt out of this mission but it's freaking impossible. "Ahhhh!" Sh
Alejandro stood before the full-length mirror staring at his reflection, he adjusted his watch and smiled in satisfaction at his look. He caught a glimpse of Jasira looking at him, and every time their eyes met she removed her gaze, that was the third it had happened. He smiled turning to her. "Say what's in your mind baby girl, I can feel your eyes eating me up." He winked crossing his hands over his chest. "I don't bite." Jasira scoffed with a small laugh, "I'm not looking at you, my eyes are not eating you up." She denied closing the closet. "Moreover, I was only wondering why some parts of your hair are not combed properly, your tie is also undone." She added, proud of herself to have found something to say. Alejandro chuckled, he saw through her lies but left it. "Will you help me with them?" He asked picking a comb from the vanity, and she was already standing before him eagerly. "Here." He passed the comb to her, and she smiled brightly. "You know I'm always jeal
Jasira woke up with the morning sun shining on her face, she groaned with her eyes closed, and she turned away from the sun to continue sleeping. 'I'm on vacation.' The thought crossed her mind and she yanked up immediately. She looked around the room for Alejandro and sank when he was nowhere to be found. He was one of the reasons she was so excited about waking up early. "Where did he go this early morning?" She asked no one as she picked up her phone from the nightstand. "10:00 am." She yelled flying to her feet. "That was unbelievable." She walked to the half-wall window, she placed her hands on the as she looked at the bright sun. She had thought it was just eight in the morning, but the bright sun in the sky told her otherwise. This was one of the best sleep she had had since she was discharged from the hospital, she had no nightmares, and there were no drumming sounds in her ears today. She stared at the orchards that surrounded the house, they were so tall and fruity

Alejandro carried sleeping Jasira in his arms as he got out of the car, she fell asleep in the car on their way. The guard walked faster than him to open the door for him. "Boss," He acknowledged and Alejandro nodded his head to him. The sweet rose smell welcomed him as he closed his eyes briefly.The walls of the living room were painted peach with black stripes, a color he chose because of Jasira. He was a fan of brighter colors but he'd do anything for her. Three gold chandeliers hung in the middle of the room. There are two white three-seater sofas and a glass coffee table in the middle. A big TV was on the wall, with bookshelves beside it. It was simple, just the way he ordered. The maids did a good job with the cleaning, and he was amazed at that. He gave them a short time because they needed to leave before they arrived. Three guards who helped with their luggage climbed down the stairs and stood before him. "We will be on our way, boss." The black-haired among them spo
____Two weeks later____Jasira had been discharged from the hospital a week and three days ago, and the scars on her chin were already fading thanks to the ointment Alejandro got for her. "I can't believe I'm going to the Bahamas," Jasira giggled as she linked her hand with Alejandro's. They had just gotten out of his SUV at his private airport, and they were ready to board his private jet. "And this is my first time flying a private jet also.""Really?" Alejandro patted her hair, and she giggled like a baby, an act she did whenever he patted her hair now, he wasn't equally surprised about hearing that but he just wanted to keep talking to her. "Yes, and I'm so excited." She nodded laughing and skipped forward, she wasn't shy to be happy before Alejandro again. He was gentle to her, and the coldness around him with her wasn't there anymore. All she could see when looking at him was softness and love, though the love part still scared her but other than that, she was happy with him.
Alejandro punched the driver seat headrest angrily, Maxwell was driving too slow for him, he used to be faster than this."Drive faster for fuck sake, are you a snail?" He yelled at him adjusting Jasira in his arms. He would have driven if he wasn't carrying an almost lifeless Jasira."I'm sorry boss, it's going to be okay." He increased the acceleration to a higher one, and the car flew through the highway skipping through all traffic lights, Alejandro wanted that but he was still not satisfied."Go as fast as you can, nothing must happen to Jasira, not when I'm yet to tell her how I feel." He didn't mind if Maxwell knew about his feelings for Jasira, he would scream to the world if that would wake her up. "Don't die on me Jasira," He tapped her cheeks softly and his heart broke feeling how cold her skin was. He shouldn't have left her side, maybe he would have noticed any stranges within her. He wrapped his trembling hand around her on his lap while chewing his lips, he couldn't lo
"We are done clearing the compound, it was a grenade theat exploded, they also messed up with CCTV cameras before throwing it in, and we were not able to get anything from them. There was no death except mini injuries from five guards." Alejandro gave a single nod to all that Maxwell listed. "Have they all been treated?" His cold voice did not correlate with his soft gaze. "Yes." "You can go for now." He ordered and Maxwell nodded before leaving the room. Alejandro's uptight shoulders fell as he heard the door closing.His eyes were teary as he stared at Jasira on the bed. Her head was wrapped in a bandage, a cut marred her right cheek and there was another scar on her chin, it was long enough to run along her chin to both sides of her underchin.He grabbed her hand in his, he was amazed at how small it was compared to his. "I promise to catch those bastards who harm you." His cold voice vibrated through the room. Maxwell was right, Fabiano's men knew Jasira was his weakness, and
Jasira arrived at her mother's__her house anxiously, coming here made her realize how much she had missed her mini house. She might have been living in a house bigger than this for months but still, she missed her house.She took a sharp breath before knocking twice on the door, she waited for her answer tapping her feet on the ground, she hadn't given it much thought that she was going to know the truth today. Everything that had been in darkness for years, she swallowed, that scared her. 'Was she ready?' She pondered. She had always wanted to know the truth but right now, she wasn't sure, she just wanted to turn back..."Jasira!" Her mother screeched throwing her arms over her, pulling her into a tight hug. Jasira was taken aback by that, she had thought her mother would be angry at her since they were fighting__hadn't spoken to each other for months."Mommy," She said, her voice soft and low as she wrapped her hands around her. They maintained the position for some minutes before p
"Did you notice that the guards on duty are double of what used to be there before?" Ava said scrubbing the white ties."Hmm." Jessica hummed scrolling through her phone while snacking on a chocolate bar.Ava glanced at her hearing her response, she shook her head and scoffed. "Seriously?" She snapped. "Will you listen to me!"Jasira dropped her phone with a laugh on the island where she was sitting "Okay ma'am," She raised her hands in surrender. "What are you saying?""The guards on duty are doubled or you didn't notice?" She rubbed her chin thinking before shaking her head. "I didn't notice, what's wrong with it?"Ava sighed dropping the mop into its bucket, "I don't know, it is so strange and did I mention it scared the shit out of me seeing men with bulky arms and broad chests."Jasira burst into a loud laugh. "I thought you loved them, why did they scare you?"Ava frowned at her pouting her lips. "Stop it, I'm not joking.""Come on, I'm sorry__" She was cut off by the beeping s
