The Enigmatic Masked Stripper: Fighting To Love You Chapter 39: Back To Australia (1)
Julian’s POV “I will be right back,” I said to Alex, who kept staring at me without blinking. I don't know if she was doing this in order not to talk to me.I realized that I have to give her her space. With time, she would come around soon. But that doesn't mean I won't care for her, I will always care for her until I take my last breath.Standing up, I wiped her tears and kissed her cheeks. She still didn't react, with our closeness, I fixed my eyes on her face. She wasn't responding or reacting to me, yet she was crying.Trying my luck, I pecked her lips and wiped her tears, it was still the same thing. ‘Is this some other level of avoidance?’ I thought, wondering why she wasn't responding. Sighing, I walked out of the room and went to find Madam Cassandra.She was in the kitchen, making soup for Alex when I walked.“Hi,” I greeted and she nodded in response with a stiff smile. The whole house was so gloomy and I felt like it wouldn't be safe for Alex's mental health. Giving wha

Julian’s POV Gripping my hair frustratedly, I raised my head and looked up at the doctor.“What's the best solution?”“Getting a professional psychiatrist and supportive system,” the doctor responded, and I heaved a deep sigh.I was totally confused at this point. Of course I know what to do, but knowing that Alex has a mental health issue because of my carelessness hurts me more.“Starting from the supportive system. What do you think would help?” I asked him in a quiet tone.He hummed thoughtfully, leaning into his swivel chair and twirled around a little.“You should start with a pet. I mean, get her a pet with a white fur. Be it a cat or puppy. She might react to it,” he proposed and I nodded obediently.He went ahead giving me more advice on how to help her manage her condition. After a short while, I walked out of his office, searching for the nearest pet shop on my phone.I found a particular shop, got her a maltese dog with a white fur, according to what the doctor had said.
The Enigmatic Masked Stripper: Fighting To Love You Chapter 41: Lay Low
Julian's POV“Alex has DID,” I dropped the bombshell after so much contemplation. Jasmine looks perplexed with Julixa in her arms, gawking at me. Her expression was similar to everyone in the living room.“DID? Is that a kind of abbreviation for a condition?” My dad questioned and I nodded, turning to look at Madam Cassandra.“It's a mental condition. Dissociative Identity Disorder,” I stated, going ahead and began explaining everything the Doctor says to them.Madam Cassandra was the first to gasp and my mum went to hold her. “The psychiatrist I hired for her would be here tomorrow morning,” I assured, my eyes on Madam Cassandra who was still trying to digest this fact.Soon, she nodded with a heavy heart.“I will go see her,” I nodded and watched as she walked away.Julixa made some whiny sounds, and my gaze shifted to him.Jasmine poured the puppy kibbles in a bowl, her eyes lingered on it for a while and I knew what was going on on her mind.“It's her food not yours,” I emphasiz

Alexandra's POVThe Next Day.Seated on the couch in my room, Julixa was resting in my arms. I got to know her name when a little petite girl came with her to my room yesterday after Julian left for a while.‘Jasmine,’ “Oh, yes. Jasmine. You told me,” I responded to Alex as she reminded me of the lady's name.What I still don't get is how Alex was caring for Julixa. I could recall when I woke up in the hospital, I found her beside me and Alex had urged me to carry her.Now, she is in my arms, fast asleep but I wouldn't stop rubbing her fur. She looks so innocent and I couldn't help but love her just like Alex.I looked down at Julixa, my eyes landed on my hands that were working on their own. I was wondering if Alex was the one controlling me into doing things.‘Why would you think that I was controlling you?’ she asked, her tone was hard and I couldn't help but wanna roll my eyes. She flare up with things easily.“You're the one that cares for Julixa. Not me. And I was wondering how
The Enigmatic Masked Stripper: Fighting To Love You Chapter 43: Out Of Reverie
A Few Days Later.Alexandra's POVI laid on the hospital bed, my eyes on ceilings. My vision blurred with my tears, sliding down my temple. My fist gripped my clothes tightly, my knuckles turning white.Whimpers escape my lips, making me shut my eyes and allow my tears to fall freely. I sniffled, trying to suck in all the pain in my heart. I cried without a sound, my heart aching with a bitter sorrow that I couldn’t express aloud. The door opened, making me shut my eyes instantly. Perceiving the familiar cologne, I knew who it was already which was why I pretended to sleep.His footsteps were light and I felt him sitting beside me. The soft click of the food flask on the table, together with the aroma made me know that he came with the excuse of bringing me food.I really don't want to see him right now.My anger towards him isn't justified but I can't help but feel this way. My head banged with a wild migraine and my fist on my clothes tightened.He sighed deeply before taking my ha
The Enigmatic Masked Stripper: Fighting To Love You Chapter 44: Being Pest
Alexandra's POV“Welcome back, Alexandra!” My eyes widened in shock when I saw the decoration Julian's parents had prepared for me.The living room was beautifully decorated, balloons were littered on the floor. While Julian's parents had balloons in their hands, on the wall behind them was ‘welcome back, Alex'.I held Julixa firmly in my arms, walking in and still rubbing her fur. I was totally overwhelmed by all these, and wasn't expecting it at all. Swallowing the lump in my throat, I glanced around and found everyone smiling ear-to-ear except Julian.“You look more beautiful, honey! It's good to see you again,” his mum gushed and that got me too stunned to even utter a word.To even think that they made a cake for this, was making me doubt their intentions. I could vividly recall how his mum slapped me at the office, and sent a threat letter to me.“I-I….”“It's fine, darling,” his Dad cut me off, “You don't have to say too much,” he said, walking closer to me. He patted my head t
The Enigmatic Masked Stripper: Fighting To Love You Chapter 45: Wanting To Do This
Alexandra's POVA Few Days Later. Morning.I woke up late and Jasmine called me to have breakfast with them in the dining room. I had objected but my mum had pleaded with me to join them. I was avoiding bumping into Julian, so his parents.Jasmine and I are cool but his parents seem to be forcing a good relationship with me. And that has been awkward on my own side.“Good morning,” I forced a smile as I entered the dining room. Everyone was present and all chairs were occupied aside from the one beside Julian.“Morning, darling. I hope you slept well?” His mum asked me in an exciting tone. I nodded with a smile as I settled beside Julian.Our hands collided together when I was about to pick a plate. Our eyes met and he had this nervousness on his face that he was trying to conceal.“I wanted to serve you,”“That won't be necessary. Thanks,” I said frankly and picked up the plate. As if he didn't hear what I said, I was about to add some rice to my plate but he had already done that.I
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

The Enigmatic Masked Stripper: Fighting To Love You Chapter 54: Wedding Day
Alexandra's POVWith a radiating smile as ever, I walked down the aisle with Julian's Dad beside me. My eyes were fixed on Julian all these while, and the guests’ eyes were on me.He looks so handsome in his white tailored-suit. His hair was slightly cut with a smooth side part, standing with his hands locked together in his front.“Careful dear,” I heard his Dad saying to me, I flashed him a smile, nodding as we continued to approach the altar.Majority of the guests were unfamiliar to me, but related to Julian's family. My only family was my mum, my eyes searched for her through the crowd and I found her.She was by my left, having teary eyes. Before I could get more overwhelmed than I already was, we arrived at the altar.With a curt nod, Julian's father gave my hands to him and I looked at him. His Dad patted him before walking away.“You look stunning,” Julain complimented and I blushed without responding. The priest began the opening prayer and everywhere was silent.Fast forwar
The Enigmatic Masked Stripper: Fighting To Love You Chapter 53: Wedding Preparation
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. He pecked my cheeks, pointing at the settings of the hall he was going for.“Do you like them?” He asked with a beautiful smile.The settings were simple, and elegant.Nodding, “I love it. We will go for this, sir,” I said to the man.“All right then. I will be on my way,” “Drive safely,” “Thanks, ma'am,” we both bowed curtly at each other before he walked out. Immediately the door was closed. I squealed excitedly;“Yay!” I hugged Julian tightly. He on

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
The Enigmatic Masked Stripper: Fighting To Love You Chapter 51: After Proposal
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

Alexandra's POVA Few Days Later.“Wait,” I stopped Julian, who turned to me with a questioning gaze.“I-I’m nervous. 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
