Eve had often reminded herself that what was happening in front of her might not be as beautiful and good as she had hoped for—not like in her mind.

And yes, this time, she once again allowed herself to fall into the same pit of foolishness—something that left big questions in her head about her self-worth.

Did she really deserve all this?

"I'd rather throw it away than have to see it die again," Axel said as he pulled away from her.

Eve looked at him with confusion.

Amidst the climax they had just had, Axel confused her with what he was doing. Because instead of releasing it inside her, he preferred to let it flow on the hotel sheets.

And... he said something painful again.

"I'm done now, so leave and don't come to meet me again."

That was what Axel said after they had reached the same come—right after all the touches he had given her a few minutes ago.

"Axel," Eve got up from the bed and tried to compose herself. She looked at Axel sitting in the corner of the hotel room wit

    Eve felt fortunate that she managed to walk all the way to Kaira's car. Even with her shaky steps and her heart feeling shattered, she was grateful she didn't find herself collapsing in front of the elevator door.No, she kept walking steadily until she reached the car and locked herself in there—allowing herself to cry loudly for what she had just experienced. She knew this was very bad, even worse than when Andres assaulted her. What Axel did to her affirmed how he saw her. And once again, Eve allowed herself to break down because of it."Eve?" Her mother's voice came faintly through the phone.Eve wasn't sure what she was doing, but as her phone rang and her mother's name appeared on the screen, she knew she couldn't ignore her call. Once again, Eve had to admit that the only person who always stood by her in every moment of her life was... her mother."Yes, Mom?" She knew her voice must be trembling, but she was thankful she could still hold back her sobs."Are you okay?"Eve coul

    Axel still remembers every word Lucas said even though hours have passed since their conversation ended. He knows Lucas wasn't joking when he gave him a warning—a warning to stay alert about everything."Did you call me, Mr. Axel?" Cassy walked into his room, bowing her head respectfully.Axel turned his head and took a deep breath.He didn't know how many days it had been since he decided not to return to his mansion and chose to stay in different apartments and hotels to escape momentarily from the madness in his head.He was aware of what he wanted to erase from this mansion when he chose to leave for a while. Now, as he returned, he realized that those traces would never disappear from his mansion. Instead, he might go crazy with all the traces in his mansion."You might be surprised by what I'm about to ask you, but please, sit down, Cassy. There are many things I want to ask."Cassy looked at him with confusion, and Axel understood all of it. So, he remained silent as he watched

    Axel has always realized that his life doesn't deserve to hope for the love he possesses. From the beginning, he understood his fate in his dark world, knowing that perhaps he should push aside something that had been growing in his heart for years—a hope that maybe he could also find someone who could endure with him through the good and bad in life. Just like how his mother found his father. Or maybe like Lucas, who finally found Clara Axton and surrendered his world at her feet.However, no one knows how the universe metes out punishment in life.When Axel had the courage to surpass what he always feared, why does he have to face destruction for the umpteenth time now? Yes, he can control the fire and keep himself from getting burned.

    "Where are you?"Axel sighed deeply upon hearing a straightforward question from Adeline through a phone call."Are you listening, Axel? I'm asking about your whereabouts because I know that you disappeared from the hotel without telling me anything while I look like a fool who doesn't know where my fiancé is."Yes, of course, Axel had heard everything Lucas had said. And after hearing all that, he didn't stay silent and let Adeline stay one step ahead of him.Many things were already arranged in his mind, and he didn't regret his decision to let that woman enter his circle. It's better to let an enemy get close to know how far they would go to bring him down."I'm at the hospital.""Are you sick?""No.""Then?""I'll meet you tonight. Don't worry.""I don't want to wait until tonight. I need an explanation now about why my fiancé disappeared and left me alone.""I'm at the hospital, Adeline. Didn't I already say that?""And should I just trust you like that?" Adeline replied quickly—

    “it's too early for you to give up when my daughter risked everything to come back to you.”Damn. Axel had let that sentence spin around in his head since last night—keeping him awake without any intention of closing his eyes even for a moment.The day had turned into morning, and Eve's father said he wanted to go back to Eve's apartment to pick up a few things and pick up his wife before they returned to the hospital.Axel knew that was just one of the reasons the man gave him, so he could have some time and gather his courage.“Oh, you're still here?”Axel looked up when he heard Cailynn greet him, even though she had been silent towards him since yesterday.“Isn't your fiancée looking for you?” She snorted, giving him a mocking look. “It's not good to be here when your fiancée is alone in her hotel room, Axel.”And yes, she was indeed mocking him.Right after saying that, Cailynn walked past him and entered Eve's room.She was the first person to visit, and they seemed so close tha

    Axel couldn't count how many times he walked into Eve's room just to bring food packages ordered by her family, fruits, the meal tray that should have been pushed by a nurse, or pretended to follow the doctor who would examine her.Yes, of course, he also couldn't count how many times Eve openly rejected him in front of everyone—whether her parents, friends, or doctors and nurses were there.However, he still repeated what he did—walking into her room when he had a reason to, then promptly leaving when she rejected him.Did he look like a fool now?Yes, of course, he wasn't any different from a fool. Maybe now everyone had seen the foolishness he showed in front of Eve, but who cared?"Let me push it," Axel approached when Josh was about to push Eve's wheelchair into the physical therapy room.Eve had been staying in the hospital for five days, and today would be the first day she underwent physical therapy for both her legs.If today's physical therapy went well, she would follow up

    "It seems he's very stubborn, and you'll have to work hard if you want to reject him,"Eve looked up when she heard her mom’s words. She took a deep breath, allowing herself a moment to breathe after going through a slightly painful physiotherapy session."Can I go back to my room now?" Eve asked one of the nurses."Yes, Miss. Today's physiotherapy session is over, and you can return to your room.""Can I stay here for a few more minutes? Is there another patient scheduled for physiotherapy after this?""The next session will start in 30 minutes. You can stay here if you want to."Eve nodded. "Thank you," she said with a smile.After that, the two nurses entered their room, leaving Eve sitting with her mom."We'll sit here for 30 minutes?""Yes, that's right," she nodded again.Honestly, there were many things she wanted to talk about with her mom.

    As Axel said last night, he had indeed been at her house since this morning. Eve had to admit that he woke up earlier and came to her house before she even had a chance to wake up.Well, her sleep was not as sound and easy as before—just as she thought last night. However, she managed to sleep by 3 AM, which was a decent achievement considering she once thought she couldn’t sleep until morning.“You always wake up late,” Axel teased her with a playful smile as he spread chocolate spread on his whole-grain bread. “You like chocolate spread, don’t you?” He asked while placing the bread on Eve’s plate.Eve knew her parents were quietly observing what Axel was doing. And it seemed they were also trying to find answers to their conversation last night—a conversation that was still not fully resolved.“The maid didn’t prepare much because Eve didn’t say you were coming for breakfast. If we had known, we would have prepared better.”“That’s not necessary at all, Mrs. Meadow. I like what’s pr

    Axel seemed to have forgotten the last time he visited his parents' graves. He used to come here every time he visited New York on his birthday—exactly on the anniversary of his mother’s death. He would come with a single flower and place it on his mother's tombstone, leaving his father's grave empty because he didn’t know what flowers the man liked. After all, his father probably wouldn’t care about any flowers placed on his tombstone since the only thing that mattered to him was being reunited with his wife, Beatrice.However, this time, Axel did something different. Instead of a single red rose, he brought a large bouquet—something he clearly did not buy based on his own decision. And not just one but two bouquets with the same content and size as if they were intentionally made to be identical.“Ah, if Aunty Beatrice knew the mess Axel has made recently, I’m sure I’d see him scream in pain from pinching him. He deserves a spanking for troubling everyone,” Cailynn complained like a

    Waking up early and starting her day ahead of her usual routine was highly unpleasant for Eve. If she could, she would have preferred to lie in bed all day, wrapped in her blanket. Sunlight was beginning to filter through the window, but she would have ignored it, keeping her eyes closed all day.Unfortunately, last night, she made a promise she couldn't break, and she had no intention of breaking it."Wait," Eve turned her head, somewhat confused, as Axel led her towards a helicopter parked on the mansion's helipad. "We're using a helicopter?""Do you mind?" Axel extended his hand and helped her into the helicopter, which was all black—a signature look for anything associated with Axel."I don't mind helicopters." She shrugged. "Aren't we taking Cailynn with us?" She furrowed her brow as Axel climbed in and sat next to her, closing the helicopter door."She's already there," Axel answered calmly. "We'll meet her later."Eve had no other questions to ask, so she remained silent in her

    "It's funny because these horses look so excited when you come here and give them apples."Eve turned her head and saw Cassy walking towards her with a few apples in her hands, joining her in feeding the horses from a close distance."I often come here in the morning when I don't have work. However, they seem uninterested in my apples, whereas now I see them scrambling for a chance to get apples from your hand." Cassy extended her hand, and magically, none of the horses scrambled to eat the apples from her hand. "See? They really frustrate me, and I promise I won't come here to give them apples anymore," Cassy said while laughing briefly.Eve snorted and took the apples from Cassy's hand, then started feeding the horses.She didn't know how long she had this new habit of giving apples to the horses. However, she felt she liked this new habit very much. It felt delightful to see the horses in front of her finish the apples and water she provided."Winter is over. Don't you want to go h

    If Axel had known that life would lead him to a complicated fate and life story, he might have chosen not to let himself get too deeply involved in a life he always called a duty. Whatever he did in his life, he only went through everything because he knew it was his duty. He never had the opportunity to make decisions, no one ever gave him a choice when Lucas decided to give him the leadership of the clan, no one ever asked if he liked his life full of dangers that always followed him, and no one knew if he wanted the life he was living. Everything that happened to him was what he could never decide. He got everything because it was destined for him—all the things he had to go through, even if he didn’t want them.Then, for the first time in his life, he let himself be immersed in his desires—something he longed for with all his heart and mind. Did he know that this desire would lead him to a life full of complexity? Did he know that the consequence of his desire was that he brought

    Eve has loved silence her entire life—as far back as she can remember.She loved the quiet she found at her desk with piles of books and a pen in her hand. She loved the breeze that blew her hair as she spent the afternoon on her bedroom balcony with a cup of tea and a thick book on her lap. She cherished every quiet corner of her mansion, far from the hustle and bustle of New York and the paparazzi cameras.

    Axel glanced at the round watch on his right wrist—ensuring that everything was in order according to the calculations he had made over the past week.Midnight came, and there was a change of guards throughout the base. At that moment, the first assault would certainly proceed a bit easier due to their complacency. But what about the second assault? Of course, the second assault would be much easier if the first team had completed their mission."What are you doing here?"Axel turned his head when he heard Adeline's voice behind him.Adeline...Whatever crazy notion was in this woman's mind that led her to remove Andres and become the leader of the rebellion was hard to fathom. It was difficult to believe that this was the same woman who had saved him and brought him to the secret base—far from Andres' reach with no access to this territory.Compared to Andres, Adeline was much more terrifying.She harbored secrets and immense danger—something hidden behind her angelic face."Nothing,"
