All Chapters of Toxic Love: Chapter 1 - Chapter 10

“Remove your jewelry.” He commanded, removing the wrist watch from his hand and putting it on the dressing table. When he looked at her through the mirror, he found her rooted to the spot. She was so scared that a simple task like moving became impossible for her. “Fucking do it, Alessandra!” He growled, making her flinch. She immediately started removing her earrings and necklace to put them near his wrist watch. Her feet came out of the heels as she was feeling pain due to them. He watched her, removing his jacket and throwing it on the couch. He slowly unbuckled his belt and her eyes widened when she turned around and saw him pulling it from his trousers. “I won’t use it tonight because my hands would be enough to keep you still.” He threw it next to the jacket. Her heartbeats quickened. “Y-you said you won’t do a-anything t-to me without m-my c-consent…” She started backing away when he started walking towards her. His eyes were still red, indicating that not even an ounce of

ALESSANDRAAs I was completely lost in him, in his face and especially in his eyes, I could not find any way to come back. Yes, I was completely stuck in his beauty. Seriously? He does not even look like a killer, I swear. “Hi,” I said in a small voice but it was firm. Meeting such patients was my work so I did not find it difficult to communicate with him. He is a killer. I mean, ‘was’ a killer. But I was not afraid of him. Ahem! My subconscious utters and I want to correct myself. So, I am afraid of him a bit but that does not mean I will show him. No way, I was here to assist him, so I could help him in getting better. But by showing my discomfort and fear, I did not want to make him feel guilty. Also, he is a patient so my behavior has a great impact on him. I have to behave nicely and normally with him. He does not say anything but just gives me a curt nod. Excuse me? I am not your subordinate who will receive your curt nods for any damn answer of question! But I chose to

ALESSANDRA“So how was your day today?” Mom asked me as soon as I put my glass back on the table. “Berrer…” I sighed. She chuckled, “It’s better, not berrer…” She rolled her eyes and giggled when I did the same. But there was a difference. She did while pronouncing my accent while I rolled my eyes because I was a bit annoyed by this. She was teasing me. “So, how did your day go on better?” I saw excitement in her eyes. “He behaved nicely and normally today. I noticed that today he was not numb and even talked to me.” I shrugged my shoulders, behaving like nothing affected me but to be honest, I was so happy today. I was happy because once again I was successful in my case. “Well, I believed in you from the very beginning. I knew that just like you take care of other patients, you will heal this one too.” She grinned and I could not help but fall flat on her smile. Her smile is too young and beautiful. I love it when the skin around her eyes crinkle when she smiles heartily. It i

ALESSANDRATrust me, I was not fine at that time. I was a bit scared. Well, I say I am always scared around him but letting him not see my fear is another point.Today I left again without saying anything. Because my service time was over. I came home and went into the room telling my mother about my day. It was good. I know I am uselessly scared. I went into the room and then fell on the bed. I am tired. I am tired from today. The fatigue of the day, which was singing a melody on my shoulders, calmed down for a moment. As soon as I closed my eyes, my ears also fell silent, which were filled with sound. The honking of vehicles in traffic jams, people shouting from behind, dogs barking on the way, the full rustle of the moving wind, all these sounds had settled in my ears. In my ears, the sounds have become like a shelter, as if they are looking for a way to enter my mind. I am really tired. I am so tired that I have heard the voice even in the silent room. I lay in peace. The horr

ALESSANDRA“What the hell is this! Isn’t it your duty to take care of the patients here? So how did this mistake happen? Are you kidding us?” “We are sorry but we ourselves do not know how this happened!”“Meaning you were not focused on your responsibility! Then there is no point in this for employees like you!”“We’re—,”“The fuck! Stop begging!” “Sir please, It’s not that they did this intentionally!”“Would you like to lose your job with them too?” “But sir, please listen to them at least? These people must have known something or the other.”“I fucking don’t care! Due to the presence of CCTV cameras here, we don’t need the eyes of these people! These people are lazy! They should die by drowning in—,”“Sir please?!” “What please!”I looked at Nathaniel from the corner of my eye. Ever since he came, he has been shouting in anger at the people working here. This person is unable to bear the death of his brother. And Nathaniel is not able to digest this thing at all that his brot
