Alexander's POVI wanted us to talk about what happened, I think that it would be good for us. The fact of the matter is that I am falling for Ella, it is scary especially since I never thought that we could ever be in a relationship, let alone be married to one another. I suppose she was right, I never really saw her as a woman until she changed her looks. I always felt like there was a line I couldn't cross to her because of how close our families were. I never thought that our parents would choose this path for us. Now here we are addressing the elephant in the room. The evening has been going well and she caught me off guard. I didn't know that she would be so blunt about this whole thing. Especially since she has been acting like it never happened." Yes I remember that night, the same way I remember that you basically ran out of my bed the following morning." I said and her eyes widened. I am taking responsibility for my part, maybe I should have called to check up on her but s
Ella's POVI have secrets and up until now, I never thought that they could become a problem, by the look of things it looks like I am not the only one with secrets. I don't know how oblivious Alex think I am but I can see that something is wrong. The dinner was lovely and I had a good time it's just that I got lost in the moment for a bit. We were sitting there like a real couple and then it hit me that this was never going to work. Why does he have to make things complicated like this?I had to remember what happened and what impact it had on my life afterwards. Alex thinks that we had a one night stand and that it ended there but today is a constant reminder that we shared more than a bed. Alex woke me up in the middle of the night and told me that there was a gas leak in the hotel. Now I know it for a fact that he was making that up. First of all a gas leak is a serious problem, the hotel would have evacuated everyone until the matter was sorted. Let's say that there was a gas le
Alexander's POVI knew that I blew it when Jack was trying to hold me back from choking that idiot in Columbia. I know that I should have handled the situation better but after all the business I has provided for them, they should have given me a benefit of the doubt and not send goons to attack me. I am sure that by now they know that we have left. I also know that this is not going to be the end of it. To top it all off Berner has made contact. I also know that it was because he was trying to get my location. The feds are after me and my family because of him. I am wondering if I should send his son's finger so that he knows that I mean business. Of all the people who could have betrayed me, he should have been the last one to do this to me. Now his son is all scared and confused because he doesn't know what's going on. I didn't want to be the man that tortures children, I have a code and I never saw myself reaching this point in my life. I haven't told my father about what happen
Ella's POVWaking up this morning, I found myself confronted with a lot of emotions, even still, it doesn't cloud me from the real issue here. I don't know what my husband is up to but I am determined to find out. The strange thing about this whole situation is that my best friend thinks that I am over thinking things. She is the one who always said that my gut feeling is always right and right now my gut feeling is telling me that there is something wrong. I don't know but maybe my nightmares are trying to show me something. Before my marriage to Alex, I have never in my life had a nightmare and now that I am with him I have been having nightmares every night. At first I thought that it was just my mind playing games on me but the more I think of it the more I realised that Alex Black has a lot of secrets. I remember reading an article a few years ago that his company was company was being investigated for crimes like corporate espionage and money laundering. After they failed to pr
Alexander's POV" X you have just dug our graves. " Jack said to me in frustration. I understand why he would say that and maybe it is true, I might have just dug graves for all of us, so now it is my duty to make sure that everyone is safe, including my wife. " Would you rather I hand her over to the Columbians?" I asked him. " No, but you could have handled the situation better, you should have agreed to at least buy us some time." He said. " And you think that he wouldn't know that I was pulling his leg?" I asked him. " Now what do we do?" He asked me. " I don't think that there is a way to avoid war, we need to plan for an attack on both ends." I said. " What do you mean on both ends?" He asked me. " I think that it's time we got rig of my father and the Columbians, that is why we are here. I am going to meet up with the Italians." I said with a smile. " No, we don't work with the Italians, you know that. " He said." Because my father doesn't want us to work with them? I
Ella's POV"Shots all around..." Jack said as the waitress brought us our fourth round of shots. I was already tipsy." I think I'll skip this round..." I said and stood up. I lost my step and Alex held my waist to give me some balance. I have already had three shots and about six glasses of redbud vodka. It made me feel like I was being drunk and electrocuted at the same time. I used to be a lightweight but after few years of partying, I can take more than I could ." I've got you..." He said. I don't know if it's the way he held me or what he said to me but I believed him when said that he had me. " Thank you..." I said with a smile. Isabella also stood up and walked with me to the ladies room. The music was loud and the club was banging. I can't even remember the last time I stayed out this late partying. " I think I have had enough for one night." I said. " Oh no, we used to party and drink much harder than this." Isabella said. " I know... but you have to admit it, this is fu
Alexander's POVThe world could be on fire and it wouldn't matter to me right now because I get to wake up with the most beautiful woman I have ever seen. The last time we spent the night together she pulled a number on me. Even now I can't believe that she is sleeping on my chest. My hand was playing with her hair while I watched her sleep peacefully. I will be honest and say that I was worried that she would have another nightmare but surprisingly enough, she slept through the night as she hasn't woken up since. I have no intentions of waking her up as she slept very peacefully. I carefully moved from under her and left her sleeping on the bed. I quickly grabbed my phone and took a picture of her. How can someone be this beautiful when they are sleeping? I had no idea but all that I knew was that I would set the world on fire for this woman sleeping right here. I never knew or understood what being in love felt like and now I know. It's a beautiful feeling and it's also torture.I
Ella's POVLast night was only short of amazing and I can even say that it was the best night of my life. I felt alive again, I felt like a woman, a sexually liberrated woman. Chad has never not even once made feel anything close to what I was feeling last night. With him it was always the same thing in the same beds doing one thing over and over like a song on repeat but last night, Alexander worshipped my body and he appreciated everything about me even the parts I was mostly shy about. Alexander Black is a sex God.Whoever said size doesn't matter has clearly never had one like his and this time, I remember each and everything we did. I won't lie this has been something I was not anticipating on but now, all I can do is think about last night and smile about it. This morning, he didn't disappoint me, I swear it was like he couldn't get enough of me. Do you know how good it feels to be with a man who just keep his hands off you? A man who worshipped you and appreciated everything ab
Alexander's POV **** Fifteen Years Later**** " I am sorry Mr Black but we can't allow him to come back to this institute, your son is brilliant, he has a brilliant mind but he is the worst student this institution has had. " The Dean of students said to me. This is the fourth call she has made to me in the last two months about my son, he has been involved in fights and brawls ever since he went to university. I have three other children that I need to worry about and the person I should be least worried about is giving me stress. " I am sorry Dean, I will talk to him. " I said to the Dean. " Mr Black I don't think you hear me, we are beyond talking at this point, your son has proven time and again that he doesn't want to be here. " She said to me. " Dean I heard through the grapevine that you are about to host a gala dinner, something about raising funds for a new division at the university. " I said to her. " We haven't made a notice, how do you know about this?" She asked me.
Alexander's POVI knew something was up with Jack when he kept on dissappearing without any explanations. Not only that but he kept on asking me to give Michelle a job so that she would miss the wedding. I know that we have a lot of history together, that we are basically brothers but I don't know if I can let my wife down like that. Ella doesn't have that many friends, she only has two that she holds close to her heart, that would be Isabella and Michelle, both of which are part of the wedding celebration. The same wedding celebration I flew everyone here for, I booked out an entire resort for everyone. I didn't even understand why he would ask me that so I told him that I wanted a reason why he would even ask me to do something like that, especially after I told him that I want this wedding be perfect, I told him that Ella has to have the wedding of her dreams, if she had told me that she wanted to have dolphins at our wedding, believe me when I tell you that I would have made it h
Ella's POVThe last couple of days have been stressful, having a destination wedding is never easy. I wanted a beach wedding out of the country. I know that Tatiana is behind bars but after all that she has done to me, I can't let my guard down. I didn't tell Alexander but I have been having nightmares about the day of the shooting, I keep on releaving that moment in my mind, I wish I can say that being shot at was the worst part of it but it was not, it was the way Alexander looked at her that scares me to death. I can't help feeling like she will always find a way to ruin my marriage, to ruin the good thing I have going with my husband and family. I know that as long as she is truly out there, I will never be truly happy. She might be in jail but she won't be there forever. I have a fear that one day when I am truly happy, when my children and husband are happy, she will come and turn our lives upside down. She will snatch everything away from me. I have had to put Brad through ca
Alexander's POVI don't usually follow people's advice, especially when it comes to my personal life, I thought that I had all the answers, that I could really be a different man but I soon realised that I was wrong. I suppose talking to Minty helped me to make a few things clear for me, it made me realise what I wanted and why I wanted it. At first I was doing BDSM to deal with issues I couldn't control, I never thought that there was another reason for doing it but after I talked to Minty, I realised that I was using my troubles as an excuse. The truth is that I have always been that kind of a man. I have always had a taste for the extreme, from jumping out of the plane to diving with the Sharks, I have always been the one to live on the edge so my sexual tastes was also extreme. Even before I knew about the BDSM works I always had a thing for bondage and spanking but even then, not even when I was drunk out of my mind, I never did it to Ella, I didn't even think I could. I am abo
Ella's POVIt has been days since the Gala dinner and I honestly don't know what happened but I have been seeing a lot of changes in my husband and as much as I told him to stop buying me expensive gifts, it is like he is purposely trying to ignore me. On top of a very expensive necklace that he got me, he decided to get me an art piece, a very expensive art piece. Last night we went to an art gallery, one of his friends was having his work shown there and so he invited Alexander. It was the first time I set foot in a place like that, up until last night I didn't really think much about art. To me a painting was just a painting and a statue was just a statue but that changed last night. His friend had one of his destopian art pieces and I fell in love with it instantly. The statue was just full of life, the raw materials used were just out of this world and I could somehow imagine that in our home. I didn't tell Alexander that I wanted it, but I told him that I liked it and this morn
Alexander's POVI don't know how she managed to pull this off but I am happy with the work that she has put in to make this night a success. I will also say that I didn't think that I would see some of the faces I saw here tonight, especially faces that had no business being here. I am talking about the women in my past, the women I have had to let go and all for various reasons. I also realised that my parents were happy about the work my wife has put in to make this night a success. I still can't believe that this is where we are, that we are finally going to get everything we have always wanted. In a week I will see my wife walking down the isle once again and this time, I can't even wait for the day to come. I am at a place in my life where I feel like everything has finally fallen into place. I am about to become a father again and I will tell you now that there is no title in my life that I hold in high regard than the title of father. Two years ago I was not even thinking abo
Ella's POVIt has been three weeks since I got shot, three weeks since I have been back home with my family and I am only a week away from my wedding day, not only have I been planning my wedding, I have been planning the restaurant's official opening and also tonight's Gala dinner. It is the first time I have had to throw a party so big but with the help of my friends I was able to pull it off. It is an annual event that was had been organised by his mother since it was founded a decade ago. I will admit that I never thought that my life would turn out like this. That I would be a wife to a man like Alexander or even the fact that I would be responsible for events like the one I organised tonight. Alexander's mother said that she was tired of running the organisation and that it needed some fresh blood, I was not too keen on the idea of taking on something as big as this and in such a limited space of time. The gunshot wound was healing and now I felt like I was ready to take on the
Alexander's POV I did not want my wife to find out about my previous lifestyle and what used to happen between me and my ex's. I know that if it was up to me she wouldn't have found out at all but she wanted to know and I told her. I told her what was happening and I thought that she would ask me for details which would have been the worst because I don't think I could have been able to utter the words to her. The more I thought of it, the more I hated myself for it. All this time I thought that I was using Lacey as a coping mechanism but that is not true. The truth I that I was taking it all out on her because I was not dealing with things. I also realise that my wife was right when she said that I could not cut off that part of me like it didn't exist. I didn't want to hear that especially coming from her but that still doesn't change the fact that she was right but I also know that I can never do to her what I did to all those other women. I told her and left because I didn't wa
Ella's POVI will be the first to admit that Alexander caught me completely by surprise. I know that the insurance said that they would take some time to pay out and I was wondering if I was even able to start all over from the start again. I had put in a lot of work into making that restaurant what it was before that crazy woman burnt it all down. I kept on asking myself what I had done to have so much bad luck and now I know that it had nothing to do with bad luck at all. It had to do with the fact that another woman wanted my husband so bad that she was willing to ruin everything I had in order to get what she wanted and for a moment it seemed like she was going to do it, that she was going to get everything I had. My husband, my daughter and even my marriage. After weeks of worrying about my son, I couldn't just sit and do nothing. I don't know what I would have done if it was not for Michelle, she really came through for me and I don't even know how to thank her. I don't know w
