Chapter Twenty-Five: Obsessed With MeMiracle's POV"Do you want something to eat or do you maybe want me?" Hawk asked with a naughty grin on his face and I just sent him a blank look on my face, knowing full well what he meant. But I am spent and I can still feel my knees shaking. We are now on our way back home after our two-day trip because Hawk still has work. In a way, it was a good excuse so I can be saved from this insatiable man beside me. God, the two days we spent on the island were spent with my body connected to his. He kept his promise and did me until the sun shone on us, and when he finally let me go, I laid on the bed like a lifeless body. He had sūcked the life out of me and moved my body to some position I didn't know was possible. At one point, I was even surprised at my flexibility. He came so much inside me that some were leaking and before I could fall asleep, I felt him cleaning me from head to toe. When I woke up the next day, I could barely move and everyth
Chapter Twenty-Six: ChangesHawkins' POVThey say men who get married early are insane. Who wants to be tied down at a young age where you can still explore and enjoy your bachelor life?I admit that marrying Miracle was an impulsive decision and I just wanted to help her. I know we didn't marry for love, but coming to a beautiful wife with a smile on her face after a rough day was rather... pleasant.Especially because Miracle and I are still in our honeymoon phase. Man, sēx with her is always mind-blowing. She is naturally submissive and she was able to make me lose my mind the moment our bodies are one. Like I promised her, I took her to Pride Tech the next day to introduce her to my life. Miracle didn't want the whole world knowing she's my wife, and I felt bitter introducing her as a friend, but I respected her decision anyway. "One day when you allow me to, I will register your face and fingerprint in every corner of this company so you can visit me anytime." I said out of now
Chapter Twenty-Seven: First Step to Achieving My Dream Miracle's POV I felt hands caressing me while I was in the middle of showering and a smile found its way to my lips. I tilted my head to the side to give Hawk more access and felt his warm lips on my skin, making it tingle. He closed the distance between us so I'd feel how ready he was for me even though we just did it last night. We've been married for four days and the fire inside us is yet to die down. We still crave each other and find ourselves navigating towards one another. "May I?" Hawk asked, voice thick with lust and sleep. I nodded without opening my mouth and he positioned me with my hands on the wall and my back against his. I moaned and threw my head back, nestling it between his shoulders when he gently eased his way inside me and I swear I'm still not used to how much he fills me. "Your walls remember my shape now." He panted in my ear, pulling back until only his head was in and slamming back in, ear
Chapter Twenty-Eight: Dream SchoolMiracle's POVI asked around and found the principal's office. I knocked on the door and entered when a voice let me in. I opened it slowly and my eyes zeroed on the beautiful young woman sitting behind the desk. "Hi. You must be Miracle Pride. I'm expecting you." She said with a smile, standing up from her seat to greet me with a hug and kiss. "I've heard a lot about you from Dame, Mira. Can I call you that? And don't worry, Hawk already informed me of the situation. Please have a seat."I blinked slowly and sat on the seat she pointed to, secretly smiling to myself because she reminded me of my former principal. "What can I get you? Coffee? Tea? Juice?""Water is fine, Miss Smith." Caroline poured me a drink from the table and gave me a pointed look. "Carol is fine, Mira. You are practically my second boss in disguise.""Thank you," I accepted the water and gave an uneasy smile. "I'm here to be a teacher and teach students, Carol. Please treat m
TW: Chapter contains sensitive topic. Chapter Twenty-Nine: Not Only a Teacher, but a GuardianMiracle's POVEver since then, Christine has pulled all sorts of tricks to try and ruin my reputation or turn everyone against me. She doesn't believe me even when I said it the rumor isn't true and I just don't get why she's out to get me. I tried my best to ignore and focus on my work and it wasn't hard to do considering how much I love my job. Some might see it as weird that I find joy in such a stressful environment, but that's just me. I genuinely love children and my job. There is nothing I love doing more than teaching, even if I know that out of fifteen students, only five of them are listening. I don't want to give up because I want someone to be just as enthusiastic as me someday. In this world where dreams seem to be forgotten and a luxury for some, I want the students to realize that reaching your dream shouldn't be based on your status. It is possible if you only persevere. T
Chapter Thirty: Life Goes OnMiracle's POVA nightmare. That's what happened to one of my students. Something her age shouldn't have gone through in the first place. I haven't known Sally for a long time, but I often see her staring out the window, looking at the birds and the leaves on the tree dancing with the wind with a smile on her face. My heart is breaking just thinking how her change will change so much after this. And knowing I have no power to change it or help the poor little girl. "Based on the strong evidence and statement of the witnesses, this court finds Dean De Ville guilty of sexually harassing his eight-year-old niece, and he's sentenced to fifteen-years in prison." Andrea, Sally's mother cried loudly when she heard the sentence and I could tell it was from anguish. Fifteen years? He should live his whole life inside the prison! He's a disgusting animal who robbed a child of her innocence!"I curse the day you became my family! I hope you rot in hell, you bastar
Chapter Thirty-One: I Am Her HusbandMiracle's POV"What are you doing here?" I asked, my voice filled with tension and worry.And why wouldn't I be? This is my work place, the place where I will continue my dream, and it's also a school—a place where Blair and I can't be together. I was suddenly hit by the memory of the past where she spread a nasty rumor about me. It was so bad that Anna and I' friendship was ruined, and I was bullied for weeks. I was deemed as a slūt, everybody looked down on me, and I almost quit, but I endured it somehow. Blair being here isn't a good thing. No, I just know she's up to no good. "Oh, come on, Mira, why do you look so tense? Relax. I'm here to see how you're doing. I just feel so sorry that your father threw you out like some trash." Blair said and walked around me while looking around the school. It was lunch break and I was told that I had a visitor. If I had known it was here, I wouldn't even bother. "You work here as a teacher, huh? Heh. But
Chapter Thirty-Two: Proud Husband Hawkins' POV "This is the prototype of security that we are currently working on. This can detect human temperature, record and capture everything through the camera. It is also programmed to contact the main security if it detects any suspicious individual that isn't registered to it. Unlike other robots, this will merely create a buzzing sound whenever it moves to not alert any burglar or trespasser." I started while pointing to every part of the prototype robot. "It is also equipped with self-defense gadgets such as tasers, pepper spray, and pellet guns. It will automatically defend itself when it knows they are being attacked." I nodded to Alex, and he proceeded to show everyone everything I said. The robot moved around, his eyes scanning the registered employees' names and stopping in front of Leo, part of the security team. We deliberately did not register just so we can do this test. The robot's eyes turned red, and I know by now, he's alr
Chapter Seventy: Double TroubleHawkins' POV"What do you think you're doing?" I asked Miracle through gritted teeth. I was drowning with jealousy. I am trying hard not to explode and ruin Landon's grandpa's birthday, but my patience is running out. I want nothing but to remove his arm around my wife's waist, twist them until I hear his bone breaking, punch his face and tell him not to touch her ever again. After I ruin the bastard's face, I will drag Miracle away from here, ask her why she's doing this, but in the end, I will understand the reason because the last time we met, I fūcked up. Fūck. I missed her so much. My heart almost exploded earlier and it's taken everything in me not to pull her in my arms and tell her how much I've missed her. I wanted so badly to ask how she was, where she was, and if she's doing fine, but as I can see, Miracle looks healthy, and she's still the most beautiful woman in my eyes. I know she's hiding her baby bump behind that dress, but I can still
Chapter Sixty-Nine: PaybackMiracle's POVWhen I first saw Landon, my impression of him was that he's a typical rich arrogant man. Not to mention that he and Hawk are obviously not on good terms. But that changed the more I got to know the man. I didn't know that the days after I saw him in Marina Town would start to change because of him. After our introduction, Landon didn't pry about my relationship with Hawk like I thought he would. Instead, he asked what I was doing here. I told him that I teach grade school students and I've come to know that he's an architect. "Won't they look for you?" I asked him, looking back to the people he's with. He wanted to see the school and asked me to show him the way."Nah, don't mind them. They can find something else to do. It's been years since I was last here so I want to walk around." Landon replied nonchalantly while looking around. "Do you ever wonder why this small town remains the same when the other town is thriving?""I heard no one w
Chapter Sixty-Eight: His Enemy is My FriendMiracle's POVLife without Hawk had been lonely but somehow, I also felt a sense of peace. It was then that I realized that I needed this. I needed some time for myself, to be alone. Being lonely is nothing new to me. Although I grew up with a family, I lost my mother at a young age. She's alive, I can see her, but she became a living statue. My father was never there and he was more involved with his second family. I had friends, I had Mark, but it still felt lonely, until I met... Hawk. He made me feel loved, cared for, for once. With him, it felt like I can be myself, like I can be someone. He didn't make me feel alone. He supported me, he was there for me. And it felt nice. When I left, I made sure that I wouldn't be found. It was hard because I had to transfer from one vehicle to another to avoid CCTV from capturing my location. I also had to change my clothes a few times. It took a lot of effort to make sure they wouldn't be able to
Chapter Sixty-Seven: In the Arms of My EnemyHawkins' POVThree months full of agony, regret and longing has passed and yet, not a glimpse of Miracle anywhere no matter how much money I spend, and effort I put into. Three months of longing to see her again and ask for forgiveness so we can start our story again. Three months of sleepless nights without having her by my side. Three months of endless thoughts and worries about how she's doing. Three months and I finally did what my mother said and patiently waited even though the wait was killing me.I finally realized that she wanted to be alone. To be far from me because I had hurt her so much. I finally realized that searching for her and dragging her back when she wanted to escape from me will only result in losing her completely, and I didn't want that. It was hard, but I learned to live life normally without her by my side. The only thing that makes me feel okay is the fact that I know Miracle is safe out there. Her and my child.
Chapter Sixty-Six: The Truth Within Hawkins' POVThree days. Three freaking days. It's been three days since Miracle left and there was no trace or sign of her anywhere. It was like the world conspired to hide her from her. The bus she transferred to was found, but she transferred a lot of times to escape the cameras. She intentionally did it, and it only showed how much she wanted to get away from me. She never turned her phone on again so they couldn't trace the number, and when I called it again, her number was no longer available. I reached out for the highest and most powerful people I know that can help me, but in the end, they still couldn't find her. She was last seen riding a taxi, and when they interrogated the driver, it was just my luck that he had no record of where he took her. I got desperate as time went by, wondering what or how they were doing. It's not that I don't trust her to take care of herself and our child, but the world we live in is cruel. Hah. How ironi
Chapter Sixty-Five: Nothing Without HerHawkins' POVI knew I acted like a jerk when I didn't deny and clear the situation to Miracle, but I saw no reason to. And maybe part of me wanted to see her hurt which I regretted that night. I thought Miracle would avoid me again but she surprised me when she prepared my favorite breakfast, served me and even picked my clothes. My stupid ego thought she was jealous and threatened by Sarah, and she wanted to mark her territory and convince me she's still better, and that she's still my wife. But when she walked me outside and even told me she loved me with a genuine yet sad smile on her face, I knew something wasn't right. I decided to ignore it, however, because I had an important meeting today, but Miracle didn't leave my mind the whole time. I couldn't sit still and I kept pacing back and forth in my office after the meeting. My phone suddenly rang and Jim's name registered on my screen. My heart pounded in my chest as I snatched it from
Chapter Sixty-Four: Running Away with His Child Miracle's POVWhen Mark cheated on me, I realized that my ego was more hurt than my heart. Maybe because I've already seen it coming, and maybe because my love slowly faded. It was easy for me to forget about him and move on. But when I saw Hawk kissing another woman before my eyes, with me under the same roof as him, my heart broke into a million pieces. My heart shattered along with the sauce plate where the cake I devoured was. It felt like I was stabbed repeatedly and I couldn't breathe. My chest constricted and tears poured from my eyes. "Oops, so the rumor is true." The woman nonchalantly said, as if she didn't kiss a rumored married man in his house where his wife could be. Shameless is what I can describe her. She doesn't even look apologetic. If anything, she looked smug and proud of what she did. "I'm leaving, boss. See you tomorrow." The shameless woman said, sending me a malicious look before provoking me even further wh
Chapter Sixty-Three: The Biggest BetrayalHawkins' POV"Why are we leaving, Hawk? I haven't properly greeted your relatives!" Miracle protested as I dragged her out of the place. "Just do what I say!" I snapped at her, my hold around her wrist tightening. I am seeing nothing but red and I have to applaud myself for not lashing out on Landon when he provoked me. I guess I can still think clearly even when I want nothing but to bash his face until the stupid smirk disappears from his face and gouges out his eyes. Fūck, I can still see his face while I was dragging Miracle out. The scumbag was grinning from ear to ear and I'm sure he thinks he's the winner for successfully provoking me but I don't care. I'd rather have him think he won than see him approach Miracle again. I heard Miracle whimpering but I continued dragging her until we reached my far and I made her sit inside first, careful not to hurt her because she's still pregnant with my child. When I sat beside her, I saw her m
Chapter Sixty-Two: Drowning in JealousyHawkins' POVI wasn't in the mood to attend any party, but I couldn't turn down the invitation of Aunt Blythe, my father's older sister. My family was overly excited about having a new addition to the family and told my relatives about it, now they are bombarding my phone with congratulatory messages and expressing their desire to meet Miracle. Some of them are upset with me because they didn't even know I got married. I didn't want to go anywhere with Miracle, but I guess I have no other choice. Knowing my relatives, they will show up on my doorstep to meet Miracle if I still refuse and I don't want them in my house. When Miracle told me she would buy some things for our baby, I almost joined her. Almost. But then I chose to leave and go to work instead. Normal companies don't work on weekends, but technology companies are different. Sometimes, we even need to work 24/7 when we're working on a hard project. As a boss, you'd think I will leave
