“Juice?…what juice?” I asked, furrowing my brows.

“The orange juice…it tasted different today, there's something in it,” she struggled to get the words out of her.

“Get some rest, I'll handle it,” I said, gently laying her back on the bed.

“M…my baby…my baby,” she cried, placing her hands on her abdomen.

“She's okay, the baby's fine,” I calmed her down, and she finally relaxed, as she slowly drifted back to sleep.

I exited the hospital room and dialed Knox, he didn't need to waste his time sear

  • Bound to my Ex-husband's Deadly Rival    Chapter 72 I'm not complaining

    For a second, it was like I had forgotten how to breathe.It felt like a dream I’d replayed a thousand times in my head was finally bleeding into my reality. Her lips were warm, real, not just a figment of my imagination or a fantasy.My heart slammed against my ribs so hard it almost hurt.This couldn’t be happening, but it was.I’d imagined this moment on nights I felt lonely, longing for her touch, imagining what it would feel like if she ever chose me. If she ever looked at me the way I looked at her.And now here she was kissing me, bringing my long awaited desire to life.My hands moved before my mind could catch up, gripping her waist, pulling her closer like I was scared she would change her mind.The softness of the kiss didn’t last. It couldn’t. Not with the way my body reacted. Not with the way my chest felt like it was going to explode.I kissed her back, hungry, desperate, my restraint undoing all at onceIt felt surreal. Like I was standing inside a dream I didn’t deserv

  • Bound to my Ex-husband's Deadly Rival    Chapter 71 Controlling and overbearing

    “I just wanted to leave the city for a while, just to clear my head,” she said, returning the hug.“You could have at least sent a text, I called you over a hundred tunes Elara…I thought something bad had happened to you,” I finally pulled away from the hug so I could see her face.“I'm sorry,” she apologised without hesitation.I should be mad at her for leaving me hanging but I just couldn't bring myself to do that.“Where exactly have you bee…” She interrupted me mid sentence as her hands slipped to the back of my neck, pulling me in for a kiss, but I found myself holding back as I stopped her.But she pushed harder, pulling me close to her with even more strength I had to stand up to evade the kiss.“Elara,” I spoke softly. “What's going on?”Yes, I wanted to kiss her, but I couldn't help but notice something…off.A foreign expression flickered across her face for a split second but long enough for me to catch it before it was quickly replaced with her usual bubbly look.“I just

  • Bound to my Ex-husband's Deadly Rival    Chapter 70 You're no good to her like this

    Morning came quicker than I imagined, twelve hours had passed since she disappeared.Twelve f*cking hours and no one had a clue where my wife was.I hadn’t closed my eyes for even a second, I couldn't stop thinking about her. Every minute it felt like someone was tightening a wire around my chest.Theron swore he had nothing to do with it, I wanted to believe he was lying but I knew he didn't have a reason to do that, and that's what made it worse.Because if it wasn’t him…then I had no clue who was behind this?“Axel,” Knox called as he walked into the room. “You need to try to get some sleep. You’re no good to her like this.”I laughed under my breath like he had said something absurd because he in fact did. “Sleep?”He stepped closer. “You’ve been up all night. We have men searching everywhere and the police are already involved. You need to clear your head.”"How am I supposed to clear my head when my wife has vanished into thin air!!?" I roared, voice cracking under the weight of

  • Bound to my Ex-husband's Deadly Rival    Chapter 69 The deal

    *****Axel’s POV*****The drive felt longer than it actually was, empty road, no music.Just the sound of the engine and my own thoughts clawing at me from the inside.Eventually the city lights disappeared behind me, replaced by darkness and open land. A wide field stretched ahead, dead quiet except for the hum of engines and the soft rustle of the wind over the grass.Cars were scattered across the open space, headlights spreading across the darkness, illuminating the field just a tiny bit.Theron's men.Each one ready to spring into action if necessaryI drove straight to the car parked alone, in the middle of the field, the only one with a figure standing outside, sitting on the bumper like he owned the world.Theron Graves.I parked opposite him, turned off the engine, and stepped out. Dry grass crunched beneath my shoes as I walked toward him, each step composed, radiating formidable confidence. I stopped a few feet away, the distance enough to give both of us room but close e

  • Bound to my Ex-husband's Deadly Rival    Chapter 68 I missed this place too

    Cyrus pulled back after a short minute, “Take care of yourself, okay?”“You too," I replied.He gave Axel a cautious nod, then left.Axel didn’t say anything. He just took my hand, firm and possessive as he led me to the car.The drive home was...quiet.Axel drove with one hand on the wheel while the other rested on my thigh.His thumb moved slowly, back and forth, a steady grounding motion that sent small sparks of heat through my skin. But It wasn’t sexual...not even close. It felt more like he was anchoring himself… or anchoring me.My anxiety had been all over the place since we landed, my mind replaying everything Axel had said, knowing what Theron was capable of.But that simple touch kept me from spiraling completely.We got home after a couple hours as the gates slid open, slowly revealing the house, with a number of armed men posted at every visible point. It looked less like a house and more like a fortress now.Axel parked, cutting the engine, and for a moment, neither of

  • Bound to my Ex-husband's Deadly Rival    Chapter 67 Thank you for your help

    “I didn’t waste any time after getting the text, I went straight to your home," Dorian said quickly, still breathing hard.Finding out he had Axel's address was of course a shocker, but there was no time to go into that now.“You weren’t there,” he continued, eyes fixed on me. “I went to your company, but none of the staff had seen or heard from you for days, no one had seen Axel either.”"Always snooping your nose where you're not supposed to,” Axel muttered coldly.Dorian ignored him and continued, “I called everyone I could think of, your friends, colleagues, anyone I could reach, but nobody had seen you for days.” His jaw tightened. “That’s when I started thinking maybe… maybe the message I got was legit.”“That Axel kidnapped me?” I asked, disbelief echoing my voice.He winced. “I didn’t want to believe it, Elara. But you were just… gone.”The silence in the room grew heavier as Cyrus face-palmed. “So you decided to play hero,” he said dryly, not even trying to hide the disappoin

  • Bound to my Ex-husband's Deadly Rival    Chapter 11 Axel told me everything

    “Everything you need to know is in there,” Axel stretched out the test result to me. I was curious to know how long I'd been pregnant, my eyes scanned through the paper until….“Oh God!”The baby was conceived less than 3 weeks ago, between the 26th and 28th of the previous month.“I had sex with

    “Nothing,” I whispered, my voice trembling against the heat between us.The rhythm of my heartbeat sped up as his fingers brushed over my lips, grazing them like a delicate treasure, his eyes locked onto them with a hunger that made my knees weak, and before I could even breathe another word, his l

    He turned towards me as I stepped in, he looked like he'd been having a conversation with Knox.“I'm sorry,” my voice barely above a whisper.He didn't react, his expression unreadable.“I…I…I wasn't thinking,” I said.But his expression didn't change.I took a step forward and he finally spoke.“G

    “You had to see the look on his face, like he had seen a ghost,” I screamed, laughing in excitement as I climbed the stairs to my room, my heels in one hand as Axel followed behind me.“Did you see him? did you see the horror written all over his face the moment he spotted you?” I turned to Axel, s
