AVERY’s POV We got back to our office and some of the teachers were still really fazed about the whole situation. Before Axell, the principal had been dominating the whole school and made it unbearable for everyone including the students. I think I should go to the CEO’s office to at least thank him for taking action. Now, I respect him even more for what he did outside. He just gave the upper hand to us the teachers and the students too. He just made everyone feel safe. He stood up to leave for his office, but one of my students approached me. “Miss Avery, can I have a minute with you, please?” “Sure thing, Billy. Is something wrong?” She held my hand and pulled me to the staff toilet. “I can confide in you right, Miss Avery?” I looked around the restroom before nodding my head. “You are scaring me, Billy. What is wrong with you?” “Well, I have a little problem, ma'am” Billy is not only the brightest in my class but also one of the brightest in the whole
CAMILA's POV I was sleeping soundly when I heard a loud thud from inside the classroom. When I got in there I saw two students pulling each other's shirts. Well, that's what you get when you teach preschoolers, right? Logan was also my student, but he was fast asleep. His head was on his desk and he was having a great time not giving a fuck about the others. "Okay, okay, that is enough! What did you tell y'all about fighting, huh? It is bad and not good for your health!" "Sorry, ma'am, but Bobbie started it" "No, he did!" "Okay! It is fine, okay? It is all good! Now you know what the punishment for fighting is, Yes?" "Yes, ma'am" They both answered lazily. "So, go ahead" They pulled their chairs to the front of the class, sat down, and then held hands. The other students laughed loudly and so did I. It was funny. I heard a scream from outside the class, and I quickly ran outside to Check what it was. "No noise, okay! And no more fighting" I said to them
AVERY’s POV I sat there looking like a puppy for about 10 minutes before the lady left. "I am sorry about the delay, Miss Avery. So, what did you say you want again?" I sat upright and looked at his face. Wait, how do I say this? What if he says he didn't do it for me? Wait, why did I come to thank him for that like he did it because I told him? That is enough reason to come thank him, oh, man! Fuck! Now I look like a dumb fuck! "Hey, Avery! Are you alright? You look very lost" "I am fine, sir. Thank you for asking by the way" "You are welcome. Now talk to me" His voice sounded so thick and seductive. Is this man trying to flirt with me? Because it is working, fuck! His eyes, his tattoos, his hair, his lips, everything about him was hot!!! Avery, this is not what you are here for! Relax and compose yourself, please. He sat across from me but it felt like he was staring into my soul. He stared at me without blinking. "I just want to thank you for ear
AVERY’s POV I won't even pretend, but that sounded exactly like a threat to my ears. It sounded like I had been threatened to do something that I am against. What is wrong with this man? The fact he looked me in my eyes and said all those things to me without thinking twice or thinking I would find it creepy is still very surprising to me. "Axell, you need to understand that you are my boss, and what you are saying is very risky. Will you go about saying this to just anyone or any teacher?" "Again with the generalizing. Don't you get it? I don't need anyone else. Hey, come on take a look at me, not trying to brag but I know that I am one clean-ass man, and I can pull any lady I want, but I want you" I bowed my head and then smiled. It sounded like I was listening to a comedy show. I have come across a lot of men in my life, but never have I come across a man with so much confidence in himself. He is so full of himself. It was a bad idea coming to his office. I just g
AVERY’s POV I left his office with a bandage on my head. The nurse said I could take it off tomorrow, she would do it for me. I walked back to my office, and Nick was shocked to see me with a bandage on my head. All the teachers were surprised, including the snake, Karen. I explained to them that I slipped on the staircase. Of course, I could not tell them that I went to the CEO's office and got hit by a door, right? So yes, I lied. I had a class, so I went to the class and saw Billy sleeping. Everyone else stood up to greet them except her. "Roland, why is Billy sleeping? Wake her up" "She complained about feeling sick, Ma'am" "Well, wake her up" Roland is the class's official, and he was picked by his classmates. He woke her up and she was stunned to see me in front of the class. She sharply stood up, greeted me, and muttered some words to herself. I told her to sit then I carried on with my class. "So what was the last class about? Someone come out and tel
LUCRECIA’s POV I woke up with a heavy heart and I had been thinking about going to see Silva in the hospital, but I wasn't sure how he would react to seeing me or the fact that Paolo might misunderstand my intentions and think that I did not believe him. This is so fucked up both ways. It's almost evening and I haven't decided yet on what to do. I stood in front of the mirror looking at myself and I was helpless. I was still in my pink robe and my pink bow. I looked around the room and everything was covered in pink. All the furniture in my room was designed in the color pink. It is Paolo's favorite color and he forced me to change everything from red to pink. Axell loves the color red. "Lucrecia, come back! Your attention is diverting to the wrong things. Not now girl!" I said to myself while staring at myself in the mirror. "What do I do? What to do?" I thought about it, and I came up with a lie to tell Paolo if he ever knew that I went to visit Silva in
AXELL’s POV It was time to leave and I had an appointment at the hotel, but surprisingly I was still on my chair daydreaming about Avery and all that we shared earlier. I had no idea why I was thinking about her. For the first time in my life, I am confused about why I keep having thoughts about a woman. My phone rang loudly and that immediately brought me back to reality. I shook my head, opened the drawer, and brought out my phone from it. "Shit? I told him not to call me during the day! This fucking coward!" I exclaimed angrily, I walked to my door, opened and checked if anyone especially Bryson was coming, but he wasn't. I walked back to my chair, sat down, and then I answered the call. "Why are you calling me now? I thought I warned you, right?" "Yes, sir. I just have something important to tell ya" I exhaled slowly and snorted. "Go ahead" "The deal is almost done we just need your words to finish it off" "What were my instructions from the very first
AVERY’s POV When Billy and I got to the hospital she was scared as fuck and held my hands as tight as possible. I took her to the general hospital because she is still a minor, and they don't really care about all that, they only need you to pay up. "Miss Avery, I am sorry for putting you through all this stress. I am very sorry, ma'am" "It is fine, alright? Now we just need to get you to a nurse to run a test on you to be sure" I looked around, but there was no sight of a nurse at all. Inside the building was very crowded with all kinds of people and patients that I almost threw up. "Miss Avery, can we please leave? I can't stand this place anymore it reeks of blood and sweat" "You are right it does, but we have no choice, okay? Hold it in till we are finally done, huh?" She nodded her head lazily. Slowly I pulled her hands and we walked to different wards and rooms in the building looking for a nurse who would attend to us, but they were all busy. "Miss Avery,
AXELL’s POVAvery called and told me that she and Shawn are planning on running a DNA test on Shawn and Logan. “Has it gotten to that?”“Yes, it is, Axell. I have always had my doubts. No one in my family or Shawn’s is colorblind, so how is Logan colorblind?”“Avery, so if the father isn't Shawn then who is?”“I don't know, Axell, but I would be so glad if he isn't. You wanna come along with us to get the results?”“Have you both run the test? We will give the doctors samples today”I followed her and we did all the necessary things. We got back and I told her I needed to fly to Mexico to meet with the godfathers with some evidence against Lucrecia and Paolo, so they would be punished.She insisted on coming with me, and we took Logan along. It was more like a family trip, and I’d promised Logan that I would fly him in my private jet.Everyone else followed, Bryson and Camila.We stayed at the same penthouse that I and Bryson stayed over the last time. Paolo had no idea when we arri
AVERY’s POVHe stared at me with a face full of surprise, but I overheard all he said last night, and I cried so much in my sleep. I also had a dream of waving and saying goodbye to my parents. I had finally found their killer, so I had fulfilled my biggest heart desire.“Avery..”“All these times, Axell, you were the one behind their death and you never said a word! You are a beast!”“Babe, please hear me out, please. I.. I.. I am also a victim. My parents were killed and I needed to avenge them. Your parents were no saints either. They had a hand in my parent's death, but I didn't kill them, Paolo did”I stared at him. How was I supposed to react? I can't believe I lost my memory for weeks and let Shawn get close to me. I didn't remember anyone, including my son. I can't believe I pushed Axell down through the balcony. What if something bad had happened to him?I stared at him and how helpless he looked. In my sleep, I heard him cry himself to sleep. When I woke up I saw him holding
AXELL’s POVI had several cuts, and I struggled to get back on my feet. I think I broke my leg.“Avery!”I screamed but there was no answer.Did she run away? That was the first thought that came to my head.I saw Logan running toward me, and I told him to go get Bryson and Camila.I was bleeding so much and I couldn't stand on my feet.My guards arrived and they lifted me up to the car.I saw Bryson walking down the stairs with Avery in his hands.“What.. What happened to her..”I tried getting out of the car but fell on my knees.The guards held me back up, but I was determined to go to Avery.“Hey man, I think she passed out when she watched you fall. We need to get the both of you to the hospital right now, get in”“Bryson.. How..”“Axell, get in the car now. You need to see a doctor”I got in and he followed behind us with Camila and Logan.When we arrived I pleaded with them to first attend Avery, but they said we were both important.We got treated in the same ward and were lef
SHAWN’s POVThe truth is I never expected a day like this to come. When I received the call from Camila asking me to come to the hospital I was surprised. Feels like Avery never really moved on from me. She must still be crazy over me. I will use this to my advantage. That dude of hers is popular and has lots of money, I will make sure to extort him using Avery.She has always been very useful to me ever since we met. I saw someone better and I left her pregnant, it was wrong of me, but it isn't new, and I am back now. I saw her son, Logan, or should I say our son. I am not here for him though, I am here to make my life better, so he can wait.“Avery, is there anything you want?”“No. Who are you to me?”Camila was behind me, so I wasn't free enough.“Well, I am..”“He is a friend to you.. A friend”Camila quickly said and I nodded too. This bitch. ****************It was late and I left. I promised to come to see her the next day and she agreed.The next day I came and the day after
AXELL’s POVI was so close to tears, but I had to be strong. I held Logan in my arms, he had been crying heavily upon realizing that his mother didn't recognize him. I can not believe this. How did she forget about all of us including her name? I stared at the doctor and he said we should all follow him to his office.“Mum.. Mummy..”Logan pointed with tears rolling down his cheeks at Avery who kept staring at us in awe.“It is fine, baby. It is fine”I patted on his back and calmed him down.When we got to the doctor’s office, I could see the pain in his eyes. He probably didn't expect that himself.“Mr Axell I can imagine how you and your family must be feeling right now”Camila was wailing heavily, Bryson hugged her and tried to keep her calm.“Logan, mummy will be fine and back, okay? I will make sure of that, huh?”The doctor said and Logan nodded. “Doctor, what is the way forward right now? She doesn't remember anyone, not even her name”“I know that Mr Axell. I guess she was
AXELL’s POV“She came around and told me about my doctor's appointment, which I agreed to go with her. She angrily left the room and said she would wait for me outside, but then I heard a loud thud outside the room. When I ran out I was lying unconscious down the stairs. I think she slipped”She said with a little tear rolling down her cheeks.I looked away, but then..“Wait. The farmhouse doesn't have stairs, does it?”She shook her head.“I wasn't in the farmhouse. I was in your room..”“In my room doing what?”I angrily said to her, and she moved away from me.“I thought about doing some cleaning for you..”“I have enough help around the house to take care of that, you bitch!!!”I screamed and Bryson held me back.“Calm down, man”“If she wasn't in my room, Avery wouldn't have gone into the house and she wouldn't be in this situation now! I also blame myself because I told her to go get you! Ever since you came into our lives..”I fell to the ground again and tears rolled down my c
AVERY’s POVMy phone rang and it was Shawn! This fool keeps calling at the wrong time. “What.. What do you mean?”“Lucrecia, do not play dumb with me. I overheard you on the phone talking on the phone”“Shit!”She exclaimed, but I kept staring at her angrily.“Well, you heard it then. And so what?”There was not a single sign of remorse from her whatsoever. She looked more relaxed than I expected. Her baby bump hadn't started showing yet, but her face was changing. The fact she was in Axell’s room was also annoying me.“Axell and Paolo killed your parents years ago. Now that I think about it, Avery. I think the reason why Axell is with you is because he feels bad about what he did”My vision immediately went blurry and I was unable to speak. I swallowed back my words and my heart began beating fast. I hope she is telling lies. I overheard her saying different things, and now she is trying to twist it. “I always had my doubts that the child you are carrying isn't for Axell, and I pr
AVERY’s POVI smiled because I wasn't sure what else I was supposed to do.Funny how I wasn't shocked. I already knew it would end that way. He already told me how hungry Lucrecia always is whenever she wants anything, so of course this is bound to happen. Either true or not, I knew the result would turn out this way.I looked at her face and caught her smirking at me. Oh, she looked so proud. I won't give her the pleasure she is looking for. Pregnant for Axell or not, he is mine. She is in for a long run.“Thank you, doctor. We will take our leave”I immediately stood up and walked away from the office.I overheard Camila telling Axell to chill and not follow me. She followed behind me and we both hugged each other beside the car.“Camila.. What is happening? This.. This is..”“I know, girl. But the truth is right now Axell needs you even more. You can not do this to him. Lucrecia feels she has won but you can not lose your man to her”“Camila! I already did! Didn't you hear what th
AXELL’s POV“Babe, it is okay, alright? I am right here with you”Avery said as she smiled and whispered in my ear.I nodded and smiled back at her. She is such a princess and a wonderful lady. I never thought I would love another lady as much as I love Avery, especially after what Lucrecia did to me. She turned me into a beast, but now I have found my princess and I am never letting her go.Lucrecia’s phone rang, but she didn't answer it. It rang for the third time but she still didn't answer.Bryson, Camila, Avery, and I then stared at her but she tried avoiding our eyes and looked away.“Won’t you answer your call, huh? It has been ringing for a while now, you should answer it”Camila blurted out and Lucrecia turned around and looked at her.“It is my phone, and I will answer if I want to, mind your business”“You this bitch! We have been trying to mind our business before you came into our lives! Don't fucking talk to me like I am scared of you!”Camila said angrily then stood up
