The Enigmatic Masked Stripper: Fighting To Love You Chapter 23: Resignation (2)
Alexandra's POV I wriggled from his hold, wiping my tears. He was gazing at me worriedly and I was trying to avoid eye-contact. “What do you say?” “No,” my response was instant. “You're rejecting me?” he scoffed in a disbelieving tone. I didn't respond and was about to leave his office but he stopped me again. “The kiss meant nothing to you, huh? I'm starting to get frustrated with the way you're acting. What is it that you can't tell me?!” “Your mum!” I screamed at his face. His expression froze when he heard me. “She sent me a threat letter this morning when I was coming to the office. It would have been better if you didn't get me promoted. It was clear that you got me promoted because I decided to keep your secret. I didn't work for it,” my hands slumped to my side. “I would suggest we nullify the agreement between us. No more fake whatever, it doesn't even count as anything. I kept getting ridiculed because they thought I was dating you,” I said, recalling Sarah's
The Enigmatic Masked Stripper: Fighting To Love You Chapter 24: Drugs Transportation
Sophia's POV I walked into the Villa with a pleased smile, bowing at Dagnus when I got close enough. “Has the assignment been done?” He asked, reading the magazine on his lap with his legs crossed. I grinned, nodding with my hands behind my back. “Yes, boss,” I responded, nearly smacking my head for nodding instead of responding. He gestured his hands for me to leave and I did, walking inside the house. Discarding the idea to asking Alexandra about her relationship with Julian. I decided to investigate it myself, and the results came out successfully. I was outside Alexandra's house on the day Julian spent the night at her place. Their conversation was what revealed their little secrets. Dagnus also was vexed and furious for the fact that Julian wanted to quit being a member. He loves him like a son for his boldness and how he had skillfully handled any tasks that he was given. He couldn't bear to lose someone as important as Julian, which was why he sent me to kidnap Alexa
The Enigmatic Masked Stripper: Fighting To Love You Chapter 25: A-Acosta
Alexandra's POV “Dual-life Squad,” I read out with my trembling lips. I found two passports on the table and that added to my anxiety. ‘This isn't a warning but a command to end the so-called relationship you have with Julian Scott. And the time given to you is less than twenty-four hours, the two passports are for you and your mum to disappear completely away from his world. Your mother has been held captive to show our seriousness, if you dare tell Julian about this. You aren't a fool not to know the consequences. We are watching you closely, when you're ready to leave. Leave a beep on the number below. It would be very wise of you to keep this to yourself, the count down starts now!’ I gasped when I saw the danger sign, drawn with a red marker pen. My heart did a flip and I glanced around the house. The paper fell off my grip and my knees got weak, making me slumped to the floor. Aching with despair, my heart felt heavy with hopelessness, a bleak and suffocating pain. “Mum!”

Alexandra's POV “Alexandra,” “Huh?” I sniffled, facing the window. I hastily wiped my tears before turning to my mum. She has this gloomy expression that was making it hard for me to suppress my whimpers. We hadn't talked about what really happened and why she got kidnapped. “You haven't told me yet,” she said, wiping my tears. I noticed the man on the next row was staring at us. Our eyes met before he looked away. I returned my gaze back to my mum. Sitting upright, I took her hands and rubbed it. “First of all, I'm sorry you have to go through that torment because of me,” I paused, my voice sounding shaky and full of hesitation. “Julian belongs to a particular organization….” I began telling her about what really happened. Adding the events that happened at the hotel to her, how I said my good-bye to him. She hugged me and rubbed my back, weeping as well. “You did great, child. I'm proud of you for being strong and courageous. This is a new beginning for us and I'm s
The Enigmatic Masked Stripper: Fighting To Love You Chapter 27: New Beginning
Alexandra's POV After more than seventeen hours, we finally disembarked from the plane. We got our luggage and walked out of the airport. I called the agent man who was in charge of taking us to the house I rented online. “I'm so tired,” my mum complained beside me. I sighed with a nod, I was tired too. The agent wasn't picking up and that was beginning to piss me off. “Alex!” I involuntarily stiffened when I heard Carlos's loud voice behind us. “Mum, let's go,” I gripped her wrist and pulled her with me, dragging my traveling box with me. “He seems to know you. Don't you wanna talk to him?” “Yes, I don't want to,” I clenched my words. But still, he was able to run closer to us and stopped in front of me. “Alex,” he breathed, panting. I rolled my eyes, letting go of my mum's hand. I don't wanna deal with him. “Bon après-midi, Madame,” he greeted, bowing at my mum. (Good morning, ma'am). “She understands English, dumb*ss. I still don't get why you are trying to force t
The Enigmatic Masked Stripper: Fighting To Love You Chapter 28: On My Way
Julian's POV Two Days Later. It's been more than three days since Alex and I went on a date together. I have been trying her number but she wasn't picking up. At first, it was ringing but now it wasn't reachable anymore. I didn't wanna go to her house at first, thinking that she might be avoiding me because of now vulgar she was that night. But now, something seemed odd that I couldn't shake off this weird feelings anymore. Since I couldn't concentrate on my work, I shut down my laptop and left the company. Heading to her house. I drove at a fast pace that made me arrive earlier. At her door, I noticed the doormat had been changed. Without putting much meaning into it, I knocked on the door and waited for a response. Soon, a young man, with a muscular body, shirtless, opened the door for me. I was stunned, seeing how casual it was for him to open the door dressed this way. His short could pass to be brief. Noticing my scrutinizing gaze, he snapped his fingers in front of
The Enigmatic Masked Stripper: Fighting To Love You Chapter 29: Having Cold
Alexandra's POV Two Weeks Later. “Achoo!” I sneezed for the umpteenth time. It rained last night and I have been having a runny nose since. Due to how weak I was feeling lately, I haven't been able to go out and search for jobs. It has been hard to make up for the expenses of our purchase, things are expensive here and we are running out of money. I was dressed in double hoodies and pants, wearing a glove and socks, and I was still wrapping the blanket over my body as I laid on the couch. In my hands was the second handkerchief I would be using for the day. I sneezed again and my head banged. I have taken drugs but it feels like it isn't working at all. It was at this moment I realized how severe catching cold could be to me. The doorbell rang before it opened and my mum entered. Her expression wasn't friendly at all. I tried to sit upright, sniffling before covering my nose with the handkerchief and blew out my mucus. “H-How was it?” My voice was induced with my runn
The Enigmatic Masked Stripper: Fighting To Love You Chapter 30: Sophia's Intervention
Author's POV “I won't be needing it, ma'am. Please, leave now. The first turn-off is the color of your hair and your outfit. We don't entertain that here,” the receptionist half-yelled at Alexandra, who nodded with her cheeks looking flushed from embarrassment. “All right. Thanks,” she mumbled, forcing a smile before walking out. The receptionist's heart ached for her, she couldn't even come up with a good excuse and lied that her appearance wasn't appealing enough. Alexandra's name was forwarded to her this morning to never be allowed to be part of the interview. This was the reason why the receptionist was being rude to her. Sophia was abusing her powers as a member of the dual-life squad. The last time Alexandra picked up her calls, she was able to hack into her phone and keep track of her calls and her activities online. Which was why she was aware of the country Alexandra and her mum was in. Sophia came all the way from Australia to see how she was struggling for money

Alexandra's POV“No. I just want a simple flowy gown. You can come up with the design but I don't want it to be too flashy as this one,” I instructed the wedding designer, declining her suggestion to the gown she wants to make for me.“Okay, ma'am. Got it,’ she flashed me a smile, packing her belongings before leaving the house. I stood up and stretched my body, heading to where Julian was.He was with the event planner and I can't help but feel giddy with the way everything was going.“Hey, baby,” I greeted as I walked closer to him.

Alexandra's POV“Baby, wake up,” a voice said softly. I hummed in response with my eyes closed, snuggling closer to the owner of the voice.“Wake up, sleeping beauty,” Julian used my hair to make feathery touches on my face. I rubbed my face roughly before fluttering my eyes opened.He was smiling at me sweetly before he kissed my forehead. Wishing me a good morning and I yawned soundly.I was stunned when he covered his nose, shifting away from me.“Really?” I scoffed, displaying a playful angry expression.“Your morning breath,”“I know right. But you shouldn't have made your displeasure known in that manner,” I said with a slight frown kiddingly.“It smells divine. But I just wanted to be sure that's why I covered my nose,” he made a lame excuse and that got me snickering. I stretched my body and the duvet fell off.I was totally naked! His eyes lingered on my chest before he made a funny face.“Meow,” I slapped his shoulder when he made that teasing sound. We both chuckled as I co

Alexandra's POV“Hmm,” I moaned as Julian's and I's tongue got entangled. His hands roamed my bare thighs and I shivered because of his cold palms.We were both aroused at this point and I was just in my underwear already. His eyes ogled my body with lust flashing through his eyes, I pulled him closer and kissed him more.The kiss was intense and sloppy, he gave my butt a gentle squeeze. And I moaned louder.“I think we need to stop,” he said huskily, kissing me back. I tried to collide our bodies together, my arms around his neck.I hummed in response without letting go of him. He tried to push me slightly but I didn't bulge. We were both horny and I see no reason why we have to stop now. The room was dark, dimly lit with blue light.“Baby listen,” he succeeded in stopping me, holding my hands. I pouted and he chuckled, pecking my lips.“I want you. More than you want me but we need to stop,” he cautioned. I wriggled my hands from hands hold, held his jaw and kissed him hungrily.He

Alexandra's POV“Are you sure?”“Yes, get on with it already! I see nothing,” I said in a slightly raised voice at my mum. I was all dressed up in a fancy silver dress, my hair was swept to the side with a jewel comb.And the diamond necklace on my neck sparkles under the bright chandelier light in the room, together with my earrings.My make-up was minimal which I was grateful for but I still see no reason for this. Julian called, and I was asked to dress up to attend a party.Now that we have arrived, my eyes were covered with a blindfold with my mum leading me inside the hall. My three-inch heels soft click sound on the floor was heard as we entered the grand hall.For some reason, I was jealous of the owner of the occasion. Perhaps Julian doesn't want me to know my way in or something. Whichever reason it might be, I still couldn't find one to support his decision.“Aren't we there yet?”“Soon, baby. Be patient,” my mum responded and I responded with a sigh.“Is Jasmine with Julix

Alexandra's POV“DLS corporation proposed a deal. And I smell something tricky in there,” Marcus pointed out as Julian glanced through the contents.His expression deepened before he passed the folder back to Marcus.“Baby, what's happening?” I asked him with concern written all over my face. He shook his head and kissed my forehead.“It's nothing to be worried about. I got this,” he kissed my forehead again before rubbing Julixa's head and turned to Marcus.“My car or yours?”“Are you leaving?” I asked in a slightly raised voice.“Mine,” Marcus responded.“I'll be back soon,” Julian said to me before walking out, leaving me to guess what could be happening.I dropped Julixa on the floor and bit my fingernails nervously.“Is Julian out? I heard a car driving out,” I turned around when I heard a voice. It was Jasmine, she was coming down from the stairs.I nodded before sitting on the couch. She came to me and crouched.“What happened? Did Julian fight with you?” She asked me in a more

Alexandra's POV “No, they don't,” Julian responded with a sullen expression, referring to his parents and my eyes widened in surprise. Even though I expected this response from him. I don't know why I'm still surprised. “It makes sense to me now. I tend to wonder why you chose to be a member of a so-called organization when you have influential parents that can get you to the top,” I said out my mind. “I was young and stubborn, determined and brave. I wanted to do this on my own, and I don't regret it at all….” He paused, turning to face me. My back rested on the bed bunk while he was seated on the edge of the bed. “Not until recently and the stripper thing came up,” he continued, explaining to me how he got to be a member without his parents knowing. I asked him. I heaved a deep sigh and stood up, going to sit beside him. His expression was seldom and I rubbed his cheeks with my palms. “Is there a way for you to back out?” “Yeah,” he responded and I raised a brow. “Really? W

It's not-” “Babe,” he cut me off, holding my shoulder.“She should be the one nervous, not the other way around. One way or the other, this has to be solved. Plus, I will be there with you so you don't have to worry. Okay?” He flashed me a reassuring smile and I nodded with anxiety written all over my face.We were currently in front of his parents’ room. After breakfast this morning, I decided for us to settle whatever that was between us. And Julian was here to accompany me.Taking a sharp breath, I knocked on the door and we were permitted to go in. My heart was hammering in my chest as we entered.His mum was playing chess game alone, I glanced around the room for his dad but he wasn't found.“Wow, sweetie. You came to visit me in my room,” she jolted up from the couch, walking closer to hug me.I hugged her back, my gaze on Julian who smiled.“I just wanted to se
The Enigmatic Masked Stripper: Fighting To Love You Chapter 46: The Assignment He Started
Julian's POV“Come in,” I permitted the person knocking on my office door to enter without gazing up to see the person. I have a lot of work to do, proposals that need my signature and many more.Since Alex's arrival, I hadn't had enough time to come to the company and get busy with work. I wasn't in the right state of mind to add work to my problems.Hearing no voice, I raised my head and found Marcus at the door. The pen I was holding fell from my grip and I leaned into my chair.A small smile formed on my lips before I stood up abruptly.“What's good, man?” We gripped each other into a manly embrace. How can I forget his kind gesture, watching over my company when I was away.“I’m good, I'm good. I expected you to have lost some weight,” he joked and I chuckled slightly, disengaging from the hug.I went back to sit on my swivel chair and he settled across from me.“How is she doing now?” He asked me and I sighed heavily. I recalled our little moment yesterday morning before she sen
