Astrid

It felt like the world was wrapped in a haze. I couldn’t hear anything, but I could see and think. It didn’t help matters that my ears were ringing, either.

A picture was etched in my mind. My dad’s.

I finally saw him again after ten? Eleven years? He definitely looked younger, and I was willing to sacrifice it all to go with him. I didn’t think about anyone else but me at the time.

How it’d hurt my family. Freya? She’d lose her big sister—and God, that made me feel like a bad person. Seeing my situation made Adrian call the doctor, because a man in a white coat was suddenly in the room.

I was made to lie back on the bed, and my eyes and everything else were checked. I stopped crying and just stared blankly at nothing. It was then the haze slowly shattered, and I could make out some words that were being said.

“Is everything okay with her?” Adrian asked, his tone concerned and worried. The doctor pursed his lips.

“She looks fine. But we’d have to run some tests on her to confir

  • A Substitute Bride For Mr. Voss   We Need A Divorce

    AdrianWe stayed in the hospital for an extra week to be fully sure neither Astrid nor the baby was in danger. Luckily, they were fine.Because my hands were full looking after Astrid, I hadn’t really followed up on Gary. And, well—the police got him and locked him up.I planned to visit him once I was sure my family was safe. I’d asked Axel to turn Denzel over too—there was really no point keeping him locked up and tortured.Yeah, my men had kind of dealt with him. He should serve his punishment, just like Gary.Astrid stepped into the house and looked around, a small sigh escaping her as I carried the bags inside and shut the door.I glanced at her.“Are you okay?” I asked.She turned to me and gave a small nod.“Yeah. I just… I never thought I’d come back here,” she muttered, eyes dropping to her feet. She gave a small shrug.“And even if I was to return, it was to pack my stuff.”A muscle in my jaw twitched. Yeah, of course.We had been in the process of getting a divorce. I didn’

  • A Substitute Bride For Mr. Voss   Second Chance

    AstridIt was nothingness. Not black, not white. Not dark or light—just nothing. I could feel my body somehow, and I remembered everything, but at the same time, I was confused.Was this the afterlife? If it was, it sucked.We were made to believe there’s a whole new world out there after death, some peaceful realm or great beyond. So why, then, was I here? Why was there only emptiness?I sat down, pulling my knees to my chest. I felt light. Lighter than I’ve been since I could think for myself. Was it that I wasn’t there yet? That I was in between life and death? Where was Adrian? Where was everyone?I’ve always wanted to be alone—but this alone? This kind of silence? It was terrifying. I no longer wanted to be alone.I wanted to be loved, to be surrounded by family and friends. To hear people laughing, see their smiles, and just… live. This wasn’t it. This wasn’t life, and it didn’t feel like death either.It was so quiet here.I had no idea how long I sat there—wherever “there”

  • A Substitute Bride For Mr. Voss   Fight For Her

    AdrianShe had been unconscious for days. The doctor battled to save both her life and the baby’s.It was one of the hardest periods of my life. It turned out that my men had caught Gary trying to swim away. That made me realize—maybe they didn’t try to drown her.Maybe she was escaping—and she made it just far enough to collapse on land. If she’d given up in the water… well, this would’ve been a different story.I took her pale hand in mine, watching the monitors beep steadily. Her eyes stayed closed—I hadn’t seen them open in two days, and it was driving me crazy. But I kept holding onto hope. Holding onto the belief that one day soon, she would open them.I reached out and gently brushed her hair.“When are you coming back to me, wife?” I whispered, then gave a soft chuckle at how absurd it all looked.She was going to leave me—that was the plan, so she could protect her sister. And now? She was the one lying in a hospital bed.“Do you know?” I asked quietly, swallowing hard. “Do y

  • A Substitute Bride For Mr. Voss   Baby

    ~Adrian~I rushed her to the hospital. I didn’t wait around to get Gary. I believed there was still hope for her—I was still holding onto the hope that she wasn’t fully gone. I kept telling myself she could still make it.It wasn’t something I could easily come to terms with, even though it was staring me right in the face. Her body was limp. Her skin too pale.“Find Gary. The police shouldn’t get to him before I do,” I said to one of the men standing next to the car as I placed Astrid in the backseat and got into the driver’s seat.He gave a curt nod, concern flashing in his eyes as I started the engine.“You sure you don’t want me to drive? I can drop you off and return immediately,” he said, but I shook my head.I couldn’t entrust this to someone else. I had to do it myself, so I’d have no one else to blame.“I’ll be fine,” I said, then glanced at the mirror, where her body lay in the back seat. My jaw tightened. I gave him another quick look before driving off.I didn’t go slow.

  • A Substitute Bride For Mr. Voss   She’s Gone

    ~Adrian~ They were everywhere. While my men infiltrated their hideout with gunshots and others patrolled the outside so no one escaped, I looked for my wife. I had given strict orders to capture Gary. Shoot him in the arm, leg—wherever—but I want him alive. The man could be stubborn, so it’s no big deal handicapping him for a while. Oh, and even if he tries to escape, his dirty laundry was out in the open. The killer of his wife, money laundering, attempted murder on Astrid Blythe, and a couple of others that would definitely give him a long term in prison. And once he was out, he’d still face me. I barged the doors open one after the other, and the more empty they looked, the more dread curled in my stomach. I opened the—was it the tenth? Ninth? I had no idea—but a woman whimpered. I paused for a second and walked farther into the room cautiously, and then recognition dawned. Tied to a chair with her hair all over her face and blood trickling down her arm was Astrid’s mum. Po
