Sold To The CEO Home Sweet Home
Ella's POV.In a blink of an eye my life was turned upside down. I found myself in a position where I have to have a deep look at myself, a self introspection about everything that has happened. To think about the way my life has turned out. To ask myself very hard questions and to make the decision to take the hard way, to give myself a chance I needed but mostly to forgive myself for all the things that I have done that might have led me to this point, that have made me the woman I am today. I didn't think that I would ever gather up enough courage to escape and actually get away with it. I knew that I couldn't think twice about it, that I had to take a chance. I just couldn't wait to be saved anymore, I had to do what I had to do and now here I am in a safe house and far away from my kidnappers. My only regret is that I couldn't take Gina with me. I wish I could have told her what I was planning but I didn't know where her loyalties lies. The shop owner is a kind woman, she didn'

Sold To The CEO The House Of Cards
Ella's POVI confronted Alexander about what I know, I was hoping that maybe there was a slight chance that he could redeem himself, that he could actually tell me the truth but no, he looked at me right in the eyes and lied to my face. He didn't even flinch. This means that he has gotten so good at lying that he has actually convinced himself that he was doing the right thing, in his sick and twisted mind he thinks that he is keeping me safe, he thinks that he is protecting me but he is not, not one bit. When I was back in that castle, I had a lot of time to myself, a lot of time think, to have some self introspection. I questioned a lot of things, not just about myself but a lot, about my family, and how my parents were able to keep up with their lifestyles. How they were able to buy me a million dollar car when I turned sixteen, or when they brought me a seven million dollars apartment in New York, how they had so much money. At first I didn't pay no mind to it. Now I realised tha

Alexander's POVIt has been a week since Ella came back home and a few days ago we released a statement to the press announcing that Ella was back home safe and sound and that all allegations made by Dustin were false and unfounded.

She can't even look at me in my face, I fear that she hates me and the sad thing about this is that I don't even know how to fix it. I thought that losing her to that made prince was bad but hearing her tell me that she wants out of the marriage was the hardest thing I could ever hear. I know that I love her, that I am sure of and that is why I couldn't let her leave. How can I just let the best thing that has ever happened to me walk out the door? How can I just let her go without fighting for her? I just can't do that, the same way I cannot bare out my soul to her and tell her the t
Sold To The CEO Mama Bear
Ella's POVAlexander made it clear that he was never going to let me. I had to make a decision, a very hard decision and when I was done, I had to find the strength to see it through. The fact of the matter is that I love Alexander, I love him so much that I was even willing to forgive him for all the things that he has done to me, but then I had rethink things and ask myself questions that I had to. If I was willing to forgive him for all that he has done then what does that say about me?If I was willing to move on like nothing happened then what kind of a person would I have been? This means that I would be accepting the fact that my husband is a stone cold killer? That he is a thug in a suite. That means that I would be okay with the fact that I was going to be a wife to a mafia boss. First it was that the Arabian prince, who else will come for me to get to him? What about my children? How long till someone comes for them? I spoke to Amy, she came here to fetch my son after she l

Alexander's POVIt has been a full month since my wife left our house leaving nothing but a note that told me not to go and look for her. It has been a month of resources thrown at everyone I can think of who could help me to find my wife but it seems like the task could be an impossible one. From where I am standing it is pretty clear that Ella had planned this to the tee so much that there is nothing that she left behind that could trace me to her including her business partner Isabella.The first day I noticed that she was gone I had a little hope of finding her. I told Jack to use every resource we have to trace her last movements and they led us to the airport, a ticket registered in her name and which was confirmed to have been used, the ticket was for a first class flight to England. I will admit that England is the last place I would have thought that she would have run to but I had no choice I had to follow the lead.I did what I thought was best and I took the private jet an

Sold To The CEO Doing What I Must
Alexander's POVI will admit that at first I didn't think that Ella was acting capable of having a child and giving it away, not just any child but mine. I mean I didn't see it at first, I didn't see the signs, I couldn't make the connection but now I am certain that I might not be too far fetched. I told Jack to find Any and he did, he found her. I had some questions for her, questions that needed to be answered. I was hoping that things would be very easy, that I would just get what I want. " X... can I ask you something?" Jack asked me. " You know that you can ask me anything. " I said. " I want to know what do you plan on doing? If you actually find out that he is your son? Are you going to yank him away from his parents?" He asked me. " If he is my son then yes, I will take him. " I said. " You do know that you can't just take him? There is a protocol to these things, what Ella signed away her right completely?

Sold To The CEO Better Than My Dreans
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
Sold To The CEO Happy Times Are Here

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.

Sold To The CEO Pain And Pleasure
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
Sold To The CEO Yes Sir, Whatever You Want Master
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.

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
Sold To The CEO Yes I Did
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

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
