The Billionaire's Accidental Bride 53. Daydreaming again
Elena POV Alex chuckled and I flinged, realising I was in his arms. I bit my lips slightly. As much as this was scary I didn't want him to find what to tell me about but as I loosened my grip attempting to go back to the place I said before, he pressed me firmly on his chest not letting me go."What are you doing -?" I asked warily."Shush" he said, bringing me to sit down while he cuddled me. “ Don't move”"I don’t need you to—"Another thunderclap. My breath hitched, hugging him tightly.I should have pushed him away. Should have told him to leave.But I didn’t.His warmth seeped into me, strong arms holding me close, grounding me in a way I hadn't realized I needed."Just breathe," he murmured, his lips near my ear.I clenched my fists against his shirt, my pride battling the undeniable comfort of his embrace.Minutes passed. Maybe more.Then, just as my eyelids grew heavy, he spoke."You're the most stubborn woman I've ever met ,Elena."Well, that's something I couldn't deny if

Elena POV For some second the world stopped but after that what followed next was the Alex words filled with sarcasm. “ Did something enter your eyes, princess” I instantly opened my eyes and shot him an annoyed glare before quickly standing up to my feet, my face burning. “You—! That was—!” I stammered, at a complete loss for words. Alex sat up slowly, brushing a hand through his disheveled hair, looking completely unbothered. If anything, there was an infuriating smirk tugging at the corner of his lips. “What?” he said lazily, tilting his head. “It’s not my fault you fell on me.” I gaped at him. “You—you kissed me!” He raised a brow. “Technically, you kissed me.” Oh, I was going to lose my mind. “That wasn’t a kiss! It was—” I gestured wildly between us. “An accident! A—a gravity-induced misfortune!” Alex let out a low chuckle, shaking his head. “A gravity-induced misfortune? That’s a new one.” I scowled, crossing my arms. “Shut up.” Idiot He stood up, his height loomi

Elena POV I flinged thinking she had noticed something was off. At Least the main reason why we spent more time was so that I would not look injured in order not to worry Nana.“ Nana I-”“ Come on, I've asked the chef to prepare you a lot of dishes.

Elena's POV Standing in front of the altar, my heart boomed with excitement. I was getting married today and most importantly to the one I love, Pete. Nothing excites me more than having the thought of being with him for the rest of my life. He didn't have much but he was more than what I could ever ask for. I loved him regardless and now, I was about to be his bride. The night he had proposed was the happiest I had ever been. It felt like all my dreams were finally coming true, at once. The cake, decorations and scenery of the place gave it all, everything was so perfect. When he bent down on one knee with his hands stretched out holding the ring, I couldn't contain the amount of excitement bubbling within me. I didn't wait for him to even find his words before shouting “yes” After five years of being together he finally proposed. It felt like my world stopped. The church decor wasn't dreamy or exquisitely luxurious but it was just the perfect fix for me. Simple but

Alex POV The VIP chamber boomed with echoes of laughter, energy and music from the bar downstairs. I drummed my fingers impatiently on my lap as I stared at the exit door of the chamber awaiting the arrival of Catherine. A glass of barley whiskey with a white paper written boldly on it, Marriage Certificate, rested on the table beside me but I wasn't in the mood to drink. I wasn't one who condoled lateness. I hated it more than anything. Catherine was supposed to be here before me waiting for me but now it's the other way round. “ Where the hell is she?”I glared coldly at Peter, my bodyguard who had no clue. “ Sir, I'll go get her,” he replied, still not knowing what to do. He quickly exited the club and almost immediately as he existed did the door swing open with a loud crash. My attention quickly shifted to the door, “ what kept-” instead of Catherine, a drunk woman in a white wedding dress stumbled into the room. Her long, blonde hair roughly playing on her face, her ey

I walked aimlessly on the almost empty street. My chest tightens as tears roll down silently on my cheeks. The early morning rays of sunshine played gently on my skin, caressing it softly. I wasn't sure if I was going in the right direction to my house. All I just wanted right now was to hide myself away from all the chaos surrounding me. How could I have imagined that my seemingly perfect life was now the opposite of what I had feared. In my entire life with Pete I had never anticipated that he would do such things to me. Was I this blinded by the love and affection I so long craved that I ignored the signs even the obvious ones?. The street blurred against my vision as I fought so hard to keep the tears from falling but I couldn't, the pain of betrayal and abandonment by the one person that I could actually turn to was too much for me. Tears of pain kept rolling down as I tried to figure out where everything all started. How it all began, where it all began? These questions

I sat on a bench just outside my apartment staring blankly at nothing. Drifting over the streets but found nothing to hold onto. Nothing was left of me anymore, no place to lay my head, no food, and worst part no money. A breeze playing with my hair strands, scattering it all over my face but I don't care. it didn't matter anymore. When I had seen those frantic texts earlier, my heart raced in my chest in a million marathon. I blinked seeing the figure being withdrawn from my bank account. I opened the bank app hoping it was all a lie, but the numbers remain stubbornly low. Pete and I, life savings were all gone with nothing remaining. A cold sweat broke on my forehead, my hands trembled, unable to hold the phone steady. I knew that when he suggested eagerly to open a joint account for the both of us claiming it was for our future, there was more to it. But I was so blinded with the delusion of being in love. A very stupid choice to make that I regret so dearly now. When t

“We need to talk” The message appeared boldly on my phone screen. I stared intensely at it. My heartbeat was pounding in my ears a little bit louder. I knew who the sender was. Alexander Donovan, one of the most eligible bachelors in the country. A cold and aloof business man, a tyrant in the business world. So does the magazine I always read, says. The stranger I had signed a marriage certificate with forcefully. Being occupied with my feelings for Pete made me forget something this important. A heavy sigh escaped from my mouth. Having nowhere else to go and not wanting to go back to that coven to be dealt with by the memories of Pete, I decided to face this music once and for all. “ Driver, turn the car” I sighed “ take me to blue orchid restaurant” The blue orchid was dimly lit. Filled with exquisite people that screamed wealth and power. As I stepped in, I instantly felt out of place. With my dressing and worn out sneakers, it surely made me stand out. But does It matter,

Elena POV By the time we got to the house, the sky was already darker. Alex had called multiple times but I didn’t answer the phone.I knew what he was gonna say so why waste my time on the phone when it would just increase my already irritated feelings.I opened the door to find everywhere in the house eerily dark with no lights on for no reason. I was looking for the light switch when I felt someone behind me.A shadow that seems to blend well with the current darkness that has enveloped the house. It didn't take me a second to figure out who. “ Switch on the lights Alex” I said, but he didn't respond.“ Alex” I called again but still no response, only the creepy sound of the cricket outside followed.Getting frustrated I launched forward to where I felt he'd be sitting but as soon as I took two steps I felt a jolt of pain exude my body.I pressed my toes on the floor trying to suppress the pain.“ Alex,” I hissed, frowning.Only then did he switch on the lights. I glared at him h
The Billionaire's Accidental Bride 51. Surprised to see him
Elena POV I took my phone dashing out of the house so pissed that the death glares I gave Mike and James, the two body guards, didn't dare to stop me.As soon as I was out of that bombshell I sat down near a fountain at the park still fuming with anger that the reason wasn't best known to me.“ How dare he” I said, talking to myself, “ darling?” I huffed repeating what the unknown person said “ more like devil”He couldn't even excuse himself before taking the call, answering it in front of me like it was nothing.Of course, what was I annoyed about? It was nothing after all. I'm so stupid to think this would be something between us. Maybe we could have grown something between us.Argh, what am I saying? Jeez, I knew from the beginning that whatever was between us would always be a business proposal, it's not like he would even think of me in that direction.I mean, look at me, I'm broke with nothing to claim account for, I can't even match his status one bit or even be as prettier a
The Billionaire's Accidental Bride 50. From another universe
Elena POV After our breakfast, Alex went to the balcony to answer a business call while I cleaned up the dishes. Once I was through with the dishes I decided to take a nap. As I walked towards the room I glanced back at Alex, his back facing me, the sun shining on him like it was a stage show.His broad shoulders and godly figure attracted me the most. I bit my lower lips slightly, unconsciously staring at every motion he made while still on the call.In my eyes everything he did was in slow motion like in those movies where a mysteric being from another universe, every effect it made was what I was seeing.His hair was rough and unstyled, bare chest with six or eight packs I couldn't care less, with his lower body covered in joggers.I exhaled unknowingly. He looked like a damn demi god. I leaned on the handrail of the staircase daydreaming and smiling sheepishly into nothing.I heard a faint distant voice calling out my name and couldn't seem to fathom where the distant voice cam
The Billionaire's Accidental Bride 49. The perfect breakfast
Elena POV I stood in front of the counter, slicing my veggies for the omelet. I wonder if Alex would also want one. This looked familiar, oh yes, I used to make this for Pete back in those times when I was stupidly in love. I chuckled, crazy, cause after taking my time to make him breakfast every morning he skips it and when he doesn't he finds fault in it.It's either it wasn't cooked properly or it doesn't have enough salt or veggies. This made me so unconfident about my cooking skills.Not knowing he was sleeping around with another woman only for me to be cooking for him and sheltering him. Wasn't I ever enough for him? Does our relationship, the time we spent together, didn't they mean anything to him before he thought of leaving me for that blondie?I wonder if I was ever going to find him and get my father's house back? So many questions that I kept asking myself and haven't been answered yet.And what scares me the most are these tingling feelings I feel towards Alex that

Elena's POV I woke up feeling all wasted. My head felt like tons of bricks were thrown on it.“ Argh” I exclaimed, sitting up slowly as I held my head. I rubbed my temples thinking it would ease the pain, my eyes darting around till I spotted Alex half naked with his shirts off on the bed.My eyes widened, my throat hinged, my chest pounding as I imagined all the fantasies that must have happened last night.Suddenly I screamed, grabbing the pillow beside me and chucked it at his head.“Alex!”“Hmmm” Alex groaned, tugging at the pillow like it was an annoying flu and shifting uncomfortably to face me. “ Why can't you just let me sleep this morning?” he complained, his deep voice echoed and if I wasn't freaking out I would have found it attractive.First off, “ Why are you here?” I asked tugging him to open his eyes. “ omg did we?”“ You don't remember last night?” He asked, looking at me.I clutch my blanket tightly to my chest trying to make sense of the situation.My clothes were

Alex POV Running around the streets like a lunatic following a lunatic. If any paparazzi saw this right now, I could be headlined Alexander Donovan caught running with his drunk wife in the night or even worse.“ Elena!” I shouted her name “ stop right there” but she didn't. It was as if she was aiming for a particular destination I wasn't sure about. If I had known, I would have taken the car or better still never have brought her out for a drink and let her drink this much.Suddenly, after what seemed to be an endless race finally stopped.I bent to catch my breath before walking to her. As I walked over to her now on the floor sleeping, I noticed my car just a few metres away from where we were.“ What the fuck!”Wait, did she just make me race with her all round just to end up back at the same place?I sighed, gritting my teeth as I looked at the already asleep Elena on the cold concrete floor.“ Come on, let's get you home”I carried her in one lift and soon got to the car and
