All Chapters of Captain Alejandro’s Daughter: Chapter 31 - Chapter 40

“G-Grandpa...” I mumbled. It took a second before my grandfather broke off the hug.    “How are you?” he asked again and then stared at me. I glance at my mother, and she’s waiting for me to give her father a response.    “I’m doing good.” I almost stuttered for the first word, but I managed. “How about you?” I added when my grandfather’s eyes were asking for more. His wrinkled lips suddenly formed a smile, and it gave me chills.    I shuddered quickly when he was about to reach for my cheeks.   “I see. I’m also great.” my grandfather said as he withdrew his hands from touching me. The smile disappeared from his face, but I quickly averted my gaze and looked at my mother. “If you don’t want to talk to me, I won’t force you,” he said as he tilted for me to pass.   “I’ll just go to my room, mother.” after my mother nodded, I immediately took my steps out from their s

“Sweetheart...” I quickly looked at my mother, who had just entered the room. I was sitting at my writing desk while facing the laptop. Even though I hid my personality as a thief, I managed our mini bookstore, which is what my father left in Tranquil. Other than being a soldier, my late father was also a bookseller. He opened the shop when I was still five and had it managed by someone. When he died, the name of the owner was transferred to me. I was his beneficiary.  “Oh, hello, mom.” I greeted as I removed my eyewear.  “Are you okay?” she asked with concern on her face when she reached me. I glanced at the monitor and looked at the time before turning if as I faced her.  I let out a deep sigh. It’s been four hours after my grandfather disclosed about Robert, and the thought of it was making me frustrated.  “I&

It’s been four days since Zygo came into our home to help me sort things out with my grandfather, and yes, it was a success. The engagement was called off. Robert and my grandfather went back to Rome a day ago. I didn’t expect grandpa to bite with my plan and the thought that Zygo and I were dating.  I don’t know why but honestly, I want to be with Robert. I want to restore our friendship, but as I think about what happened when I was in Rome, my chest aches. One more thing, even if he is still the person I knew before, Robert has changed a lot. He was a plump one then, a chubby nerd with the kindest heart. But now, it’s not just his physicality that has changed. It’s his whole being, and I feel like confronting a different person at that time. I let out a deep sigh. Also, after that day, I never heard about Zygo.  “What are you think

“Hey, are you okay?” I woke up from daydreaming because of Clark’s voice. I brought my eyes to him and nodded. He was sitting on my left side. “Yeah, I’m fine. I’m just thinking about something.” Clark’s brows knitted with a look of curiosity, but it disappeared after a second.  “If there is any problem, just tell us,” he said as he took a bite of the burger on his hands. I gave him a stingy smile. It’s been two weeks since we last saw each other, and we are currently in the hideout right now. “Anyways, where is your twin?” I asked when Chris was not around. Clark just shrugged his head.  “I don’t know. Since yesterday, I haven’t seen Chris, so I came here because I was so bored at home. I also didn’t expect that there’s someone in the hideout.” “So, C

It’s been a month since that friendship was formed between me, Zygo, and Alchy. I don’t want to admit it, but it was nostalgic. Sometimes, they visited me three times a week.  Alchy still knows nothing about my true identity. I’ve been keeping a lot of secrets, but I can’t throw them out, not yet. I don’t know the right word, but since that day, something has changed in me. It feels like I’ve become a new person because of their presence.  I learned to accept things, but about Alchy, I haven’t considered it yet. It’s still hard, but now, my hatred was lessened. Inside a month, I’ve known some sides of them. And honestly, I want to dig deeper into their personalities.  I had never felt something like this before. I have the gang but being with those two men hits different. Talking about my team, I also noticed something strange with
