CHASING HIS BARREN EX WIFE Chapter 059
CHAPTER 059A STEAMY NIGHT, REGRETS OR LUST OR WHATEVER SHE FELT.POV(FREYA)I pulled the covers up to Eliza’s chin, brushing a strand of her hair away. She looked peaceful now, like she hadn’t spent the entire night unraveling in my arms.I turned to leave, tiptoeing out as quietly as I could.But just as my fingers touched the doorknob, I felt it, her hand curling tightly around my wrist.I froze.“Freya,” she murmured. “Don’t go.”I turned slowly, heart skipping. Her eyes were open now. Wide and glossy.“Eliza, it’s late. I was just...”She sat up, never releasing my wrist. “You flinched.”“What?” I tried to smile.“You were scared,” she whispered, blinking at me. “Am I… scary to you?”I didn’t answer right away. Something about her voice, the smallness of it, made my throat close. Her fingers loosened slightly, waiting.So I lied. “I’m just tired,” I said softly. “That’s all.”She didn’t believe me. I could tell.But she didn’t push.“Would you… sleep here?” she asked next. Her vo

CHAPTER 058HER EYES, THEY'RE DIFFERENT POV(FREYA)The place was not what I expected.A Russian bar. I’d pictured icy stares, vodka shots, and maybe a bear head mounted on a wall. What I got instead was... people laughing? Music bouncing off brick walls? A warmth I didn’t think Russia had?“This is oddly cheerful,” I said, leaning toward Alan as we stepped in. He was scanning the room, one hand in his coat pocket, the other motioning for me to stay close. “Where’s the brooding? The mystery? The scary mafia vibes?”“Maybe they’re on vacation,” he said dryly, then added under his breath, “Give it five minutes.”We found a seat near the bar, the glow of neon lights painting the air around us in soft pink and purple. I glanced at the women, sharp cheekbones, painted lips, laughter that rang like bells. All so tall. So elegant.“Russian women are beautiful,” I murmured, half to myself.Alan paused, then turned to look at me. “Are you jealous?”I smiled tightly, though I could already feel

CHAPTER 057E MONSTERPOV(FREYA)The study felt like something out of a horror novel. Dim, antique, and suffocating with shadows. A hundred cracked spines stared down at me from the towering bookshelves. The fireplace glowed faintly, not warm, just alive. And in the chair across from me, the old man sat with his steepled fingers, eyes heavy like they carried centuries."Tea?" he asked.I shook my head, barely able to find my voice. “No.”He poured it anyway, a delicate, almost ceremonial gesture, then began like he’d been rehearsing the story his whole life."There was once a girl," he said, "born with blood in her mouth. Not literally, of course. But close. Let’s call her… E.”My stomach knotted.“She was just two when the pets began to disappear. Rabbits, cats, songbirds. All vanished. Who would suspect a child? Then at seven, her father gifted her a dog..."He paused, his lips curling slightly.“...and the dog died that night. The maids said they heard it crying. Whimpering. But by

CHAPTER 056FORBIDDEN MEMORIES POV (FREYA)The fire had nearly died down, only a low crackle left in the backyard pit. Smoke curled lazily into the air, rising into the thickening clouds above us. I should’ve noticed the shift in the wind, the way the air suddenly smelled like wet earth. But my heart was still caught somewhere between the ashes and Eliza’s eyes.Then came the first drop.It landed softly on my cheek. Then another. And then—“Oh no,” I laughed, looking up as the heavens broke loose without warning.Rain.Cool, heavy, unapologetic rain.I squealed as it soaked through my shirt and hair almost instantly. “Oh, come on!” I shouted toward the sky, arms stretched out.Beside me, Eliza just blinked, watching me like I’d gone mad.Which, fair. But it was a freeing kind of madness.I kicked off my shoes and ran barefoot into the yard, spinning in the puddles already forming in the grass. “Come on, Liza!”She hesitated, arms crossed, then slowly peeled her sweater off and dropp
CHASING HIS BARREN EX WIFE 055 THE MONSTERS WE LEARN TO LOVE
CHAPTER 055THE MONSTERS WE LEARN TO LOVEPOV (FREYA)I followed Eliza through a long hallway, deeper into the manor. Her hand was warm in mine, but her steps were stiff, mechanical, like her soul had been drained minutes ago and she was walking out of habit, not will.She said nothing. Not until we reached a narrow wooden door tucked beneath a stone arch that looked far too small to be part of a house this grand.She pushed it open.I blinked.It wasn’t a room. It was a cell.Four tight walls, cracked and yellow. The window, if I could even call it that was the size of a shoebox. The air tasted like mildew and old paint. There was no bed, just a thin mattress on the ground and shelves stacked with notebooks and books worn to their spines. Paintings on the walls, no bigger than postcards, were scrawled like desperate messages. Some were wild and chaotic, others hauntingly detailed.“This...” My voice barely found itself. “This is where you grew up?”She nodded.I stared, unsure whethe
CHASING HIS BARREN EX WIFE 054 HER LIVING CANVAS
CHAPTER 054HER LIVING CANVASPOV(FREYA)I found her by the window, sunlight pooling across the floor like it had chosen her. She was barefoot, surrounded by paintbrushes, a cup of murky water, and a half-unwrapped canvas propped on a wooden easel. She was humming something... I couldn’t place the tune, but it sounded soft. Almost happy.“Eliza?”She didn’t flinch or turn around, just swept her hand across the palette like she already knew I was there. “Have a seat, princess.”I blinked. “What?”She turned with a smug little grin and pointed to the armchair in front of the easel. “Sit. Your face looks dramatic today. I need a subject.”I glanced down at myself. Just an oversized sweater and yesterday’s leggings. “Are you painting me or sentencing me?”“Don’t be rude. Sit.”I sat.Eliza flicked her wrist like she was swishing away all my hesitations. “Now stay in one position. Don’t ruin my vision.”I tried not to smile. “You have a vision?”“I always do.” She dipped her brush and star
