ACE AND ANGEL Chapter 11
Ace's POVI shut the door on my brother's face, then pinned Angel’s back against the very same door. My brother was trying so hard to push the door open, but I had my other hand blocking his attempts.Angel’s tiny neck was in my grip. It felt quite satisfying because that's what I practiced my whole life. She’s lost her defiance; begging for her breath, her tear glands working overtime.“I will kill you, Angel. Don't try me. Just because I was soft on you the past week, doesn't mean you’ll have your way. Got that, little wife?” I roared with my teeth clenched.She tried to speak, but all that could be heard were her groans of pain.I continued, “If you and my brother are fucking, I swear I will have your blood on my hands. I’ve killed hundreds of people before, you’ll just be another one of them. You should never long to see me angry, ever?” Angel started shaking at the mention of me killing people. She struggled letting her sobs come out, I was still blocking her windpipe. She was o
ACE AND ANGEL Chapter 12
Angel’s POV“Ah!” I let out a groan as ice cold water splashed all over me. I shielded my face with my hands crossed.“Get up!” A manly voice instructed from above. The sound of an empty bottle hitting the wooden table on the bedside could be heard. Pissed, I wiped my face. I opened my eyes slowly, and I saw Ace standing and staring down at me. His hands were in his pockets wearing an expressionless face.I heaved and forced myself up, leaning my back against the damp pillow. “It's 5 a.m., you're supposed to be up, and doing the wife duties.” He snapped, and turned to walk towards the door. He stopped short of going outside, and removed his hand from the pocket. He came out with the bottle lid between his fingers, and threw it across the room.“Clean it out, little wife!” He hissed and banged close the door behind him. I could hear the echoes of his footsteps as he tiptoed down the stairs. “5 the fuck A.M!” I stressed as I threw the blankets in the air away from me.One thing abo
ACE AND ANGEL Chapter 13
Ace’s POV“Yes, please tell me. Because I thought you were going to kill me this time," Angel explained. Even though I was looking away, I could feel her piercing gaze.I debated whether or not to inform her already, and opted against it. She wasn't prepared to hear any of it. She wasn't prepared to hear her twisted family's heartbreaking dark secrets. Most significantly, she wasn't ready to learn I'd been watching her since she was born. The more I thought about her family, particularly her father, the angrier I became with her. But I kept my cool.I sighed, “Some other time, not today.”“Ace,” she paused a bit, then continued; “Just tell me what I'm doing in this marriage. It feels like hell on earth each passing day. Just tell me the truth, clearly you're hiding something, that's apparently bigger than my life. What fate have you and my father decided for me? I'm losing my mind trying to come to terms with the situation I'm in, for god's sake just tell me.” She muttered with he
ACE AND ANGEL Chapter 14
Ace’s POV“What exactly did you say happened? Dr. Titus has already informed me, but I'd like to hear it from you." Once Luis and I arrived at the reception desk, the designated doctor inquired.Luis stomped with his right foot, then bit the inside of his lower lip, his hands deep in his pockets. He flashed a glimpse at me. There was no way out, I heaved. If I changed the story, an investigation would have to be opened, which is the last thing I need right now.Sighing,"A threesome, doctor." "And she hit the wall," Luis said firmly, as if it were fact.“So, who is the actual husband?" The doctor went on. I simply wanted him to stop because I was losing my poise."It's an open marriage; details don't matter." Just make sure she's all right." My brother is such a brilliant liar, it's no surprise he's an excellent lawyer. At the very least, he has his own career. Unlike me, who devotes my time to gangsterism and abuse. I'm living my life for the benefit of my stepfather.To honor my r
ACE AND ANGEL Chapter 15
Ace’s POV"She's in a coma," the doctor said, his attention shifting from me to Luis."What do you mean, doctor?" my heart sank, my eyes widened. "No, don't be afraid. It's nothing. It's a coma that has been medically induced. This sort of transient coma, or deep state of unconsciousness, is induced after an accident to protect the brain from swelling and allow the body to recuperate. The patient is given a controlled dose of an anaesthetic, resulting in a loss of feeling or awareness. We'll keep a watch on her vitals." He elaborated. "But why?" Was an induced coma needed, doctor?" For the first time since the doctor left the OT room, Luis uttered.“Yes. The intensity at which she hit the wall was high. It feels as though…there was a push.” I should have taken her to my doctor instead. But I obliged with my brother's demands. Now, if this doctor becomes invested in this, it may potentially reach the police. I'm not afraid of them; I just try to avoid getting into problems because o
ACE AND ANGEL Chapter 16
Ace’s POV I staggered and slipped as my father pulled me up the stairs to his room by my hand. Not the one he shares with mother, the one he has to himself; the bed he sleeps in after arguments with mother and a desire to give each other space. We just stood at the door whenever he asked for something from us; none of us ever went inside.I have to admit that being dragged felt unusual for my body, and I misjudged his strength. I now understood how Angel felt whenever I dragged her, given she is physically weaker than I am. And, oh! That's when it dawned on me that I hadn’t informed him that she was in a coma. He unlocked the door and kicked it open violently. The way he forced me into the dark room made me feel helpless. I didn't feel like Ace Kingston being pushed around like that. Lights flashed on, blinding me. I looked around, and I quickly saw why he never let any of us go. I didn't want to be there any longer. I knew he was sick and cruel, but I never expected him to be
ACE AND ANGEL Chapter 17
Sarah’s POVAs soon I got off a call with Luis, informing me Angel was in the hospital, I hopped into my car and drove as fast as I could. I didn't realize I cared that much about her until today. She's always been someone I pitied but never have I thought I'd go to those extents for.I arrived at the hospital reception area where Luis was sitting, waiting. He spotted me and came up to me while I was still conversing with the receptionist.“Sarah, you made it!” He mumbled from behind. His voice in a hopeless tone.“Yeah! Where is that one?” I grumbled, looking around behind him for any signs of Ace. Luis sighed and threw his hands in the air. “He left. He had to meet with father. I just don't know how it's going to go, and I doubt it's even about Angel in the first place. He looked worried since a few days.”“Yeah!” I whispered under my breath, my gaze peeping into his. I could tell he was fighting really heavy emotions.“How do you feel? I know you like her,” I said, forcing a smil
ACE AND ANGEL Chapter 18
Sarah's POVAll I remember seeing before hitting the sofa with my stomach, and spitting blood, was Ace’s red face. I thought I was seeing the devil, except it was my brother. The brother I'd cherished the rest of my childhood. The brother I helped with maths homeworks and defended at school when everyone bullied him. I never considered him a step brother, but just a brother in need of a big sister to give maternal love to when Lulu was busy having brunch everyday.And today this is how he repays me. I felt my eyes well up, and I let it all out. Within a few seconds my face was covered in water. I remembered Luis was here with me. In so much pain, I forced myself up and pivoted to where I was standing earlier. I grasped for air.It seemed as though Luis wanted to hit Ace’s face with a fist, but the latter was blocking it with his palm so effortlessly. Like in the movies.Luis must have pushed me when Ace wanted to hit me, and because of that I hit the sofa and got hurt. But I can't b
