CHAPTER 77—
Lexie shuffled on Zheme's lap, head buried in the crook of his neck. She was bored and Zheme wasn't doing a thing to entertain her. He was just too austere and...well too damn boring!
Since breakfast, all he did was sit and look out into space, so Lexie took it upon herself to shuffle her way onto his lap for the attention she had yet to receive. What a bastard he was to not even notice she took a seat on him!What a bastard he was to not notice her at all!What was he thinking about so important that it made her presence go unnoticed?What was so much more significant than her?Lexie raised her head to look at him, eyes narrowed. "Zheme..."No response.She shook his shoulder. "Zheme...?"Zheme snapped out of his thoughts, eyes darting to look down at her. "Yes Kitten.""I-I..." Lexie trailed off, eyes drifting down to stare at her lap as abashment settled under her feet. "Why do you always do this toRelated chapters

Lexie moaned out, fingers fiddling with the buttons of Zheme's pants until it came undone. She zipped down the zip, right hand caressing the all too familiar hardness covered by a Hanes underpants. "I-I...I want you."Zheme nodded. "I know Kitten, but not today.""But wh—?"Zheme cut her off with a peck, fingers digging deeper within her, eliciting little whimpers, bodily squirms and loud moans. "You're pregnant Lexie, you shouldn't be doing anything arduous, there's a possibility that it can lead to miscarriage."Lexie frowned. "But mom sai...ahhh!" Lexie's fingers clung to his shoulder as pleasure ran like lightening along her walls. His fingers were working magic, pleasuring her beyond satisfaction, yet still, she wanted him, his hardness, deep, deep within her. "M-mom said when pregnant, your sex drive becomes higher and that there's nothing wrong with sex during pregnancy.""Is your mom a doctor? What if she's wrong?""I...I

Lexie stood by the door, watching with impatience as Zheme stepped inside with multiple bags in hand. "What took you so long?"Zheme shrugged, closing the door behind him. "Shopping for food is not easy Lexie, especially if you're a man.""It is easy, all you had to do was pick up a couple of groceries, you wanna know what I did while you were gone?""What?" Zheme inquired."I had to wait for you, right here at the door.""Did you stand here all this time Lexie?"Lexie nodded and at that, Zheme's eyes narrowed pointedly. "How many times must I tell you not to do that? I've been gone for about thirty minutes Lexie, couldn't you just wait in the living room while sitting on the couch or something?"Lexie shook her head, arms folded across her chests. "No!""And why the bloody hell not?!"Lexie didn't respond, instead her arms circled herself as she took a step back.Zheme sighed at that for he kn

He walked to his room, eyes finding Lexie stood by the closet, holding in hand the bag that contained all the money he had left.She looked over at him, eyes gaping wide. "It beeped, something inside of it beeped!"Zheme swallowed heavily, shaking his head in denial. "I searched that bag, no we searched that bag, there was nothing inside, so hearing a beep is certainly impossible.""I heard it Zheme," Lexie persisted. "I swear to god, I heard it."Zheme grabbed the bag from her grasp, shaking its contents out onto the floor. The money, that's all he saw, nothing else and that somehow managed to calm his bursting nerves. "See Kitten, you're being delusional, there's nothing in the ba—"A sudden sound drifted like the wind to both their ears, a ringtone, a phone, a f*cking phone! Zheme didn't bring his phone, he had left it in his car and furthermore, this annoying sound was not his ringtone, so whose w—?"Quickly, he fiddled with

His father stepped forward and with every step he took, Zheme took one back, hauling Lexie along with him.His eyes were gaped wide, lips stretched apart, heart beating fast and all his thoughts were irrational.His father... What was his plan now?To kill him for his disobedience?Or perhaps to kill Lexie for hers?Zheme didn't know what to think, what to do, so he resorted to resigning into the centre of the room before speaking shakily. "F-father please, I'm sorry okay, but if you're planning to hurt one of us, I'm the one who deserves it, she's innocent and she's... She's pregnant...please."Maxwell's steps ceased, head tilting, hands falling into his pockets. "I see you're still defending her when all of this is her fault. If it weren't for her, everything would be fine, you would still be safe, safe from me, safe from him!" He took a deep breath, eyes pointedly fixated on Lexie. "But just like your mother, that da

Zheme's heartbeat was palpitating at a speed it never had before and his fingers that gripped the gun were shaking with anxiety.This was all a surprise to him. He had initially thought that Dan was apart of his father's twisted plan, but now it's seems his father had been the one apart of Dan's.This, all of it was too hard to process, how could it have turned out like this?Dan the mastermind...?His father the victim...?Zheme would've never guessed it, but now since the real truth had forcibly found its way to him, he was sorry.For doubting his father...For condemning him...For hating him...And lastly for trying to kill him.What if he had succeeded?Then he'd be in an even bigger pit of regret, but now instead of regret, he was buried in fear, for the father who had aspired to protect him was laying on the floor, panting unsteadily and bleeding heavily.What if he...w

"Well since you asked..." Dan shrugged, nonchalantly. "I'll tell you.""It all started with...•••Flashback•••It all started with him, Jerome Algae. (Dan's original name) He wasn't a normal kid, there was just something abnormal about him, the way he talked, the way he walked and even the way he stared. There was this darkness in everything he did, this...this inexplainable aura. He had no parents and in the orphanage where he lived, the kids were adequately scared of him. He did things they would never; gruesome things, sick things.On his left finger, he'd bite the nails until they bled, but left the ones on his right hand to grow just so he could use them to scratch his arm until the skin abraded.He wouldn't wince, wouldn't groan out in pain, but instead he'd smile like the pain brought him joy. Nobody understood him, nobody tried to, but perhaps if they had, he wouldn't have turned out as cruel as he did.
A Bride For The CEO CHAPTER 84
Amongst the fear that flowed relentlessly within Zheme, there now laid anger.No sadness... No pity...No regret...Only anger, repulsion, disgust for this old man; supposedly known as his grandfather.How could someone's mind be this corrupt?How could someone hold onto a grudge for this long?His mother had left him at the age of seven?Well at least she got a chance to leave willingly, Zheme's was forcibly taken away from him. And his father had hung himself? That was nothing compared to what both Zheme and his father had to endure.The whips, the manipulation...if they were for a good cause then perhaps Zheme wouldn't have felt this bad, but they were for nothing at all, nothing but Dan's stupid conviction.For it was stupid, He just lost his mom and his dad and then thought the world fell upon his shoulder, well Zheme lost his mom and while his father was alive, he fel

Lexie's hand shook even as she sat in the hospital. She had killed someone and though he deserved it, she still felt the need to lament.Her shaky finger had rested against the trigger without hesitation, they had pressed down urgently and without a second thought too, shouldn't she have felt something?Something other than her fear for Zheme's life, something other than her fear for his safety?Perhaps she had felt something, something that she had now forgotten, for how could she have killed a man and feel absolutely nothing while doing it?How could she have done something like that?Perhaps it was because everything that took place approximately a hour ago was something new to her, something she never thought she'd experience.The blood, the bullets, the deaths, it was all a surprise to her. She had known things would get messy between Zheme and his father, but she had never thought the mystery of the story went so deep. Andr
