REIGN'S POV

I closed the fridge and moved to the counter and sat down. I dropped the water bottle on the table and sighed. There were a lot of things on my mind, things I shouldn't even be bothered about but they were all I could think of, despite not wanting to.

“Reign…are you okay?” Ivan asked, as he came into the kitchen. I hadn't seen him in a while and it was intentional.

“Yes, of course. I was just resting my head for a bit before I returned to the hospital. I needed a change of clothes as well,” I explained, looking everywhere but at him. I didn't want him to see what I couldn't say in my eyes. Someone once told me I had expressive eyes.

“Right, do you need a ride?”

“No, no I'm good,” I stood up, grabbed the already packed lunch and moved past him. “I'm leaving now. Thank you for the offer though.”

Ivan grabbed my hand, making me turn back to him but he just stared at me without a word. I had no idea if it was because we had spent time together but I could somehow tell what he

  • Love in the Headlines    How to stop a wedding

    REIGN'S POV My hands trembled as I took a few steps back, like the distance would protect me from this inevitable conversation. Never in my wildest dreams could I have imagined that Mel would be the first to discover it.I had no idea what to say.“Reign? I need you to tell me the truth. Those things I saw…. what's going on?” Mel urged.“It's nothing… it's a prank someone is pulling…. It doesn't mean anything.” How could I have left my phone in front of her? It was almost like I was begging for someone to see it.Maybe I was, it was becoming too heavy to bear after all.“Don't give me that bullshit.” It was the first time Mel cussed at me. I was not sure how to feel about it. “I didn't check your phone intentionally and I'm sorry if you are offended but I couldn't ignore what I saw. Whoever that bastard is, sent another message and it was on the table in front of me so I saw it.”They sent another message? Who were they using to threaten me again?“Reign, you can't deceive me that th

  • Love in the Headlines    My Reign

    IVAN'S POV I've had the craziest twenty four hours of my life. First off, I got the shocking news that Mel got into an accident, then Reign tried to take her own life, then my father showed up with Mel's father and now this.We would be getting married at the end of the month? What was this load of crap?“You're joking, right?” Mel's voice shook, her hands clenching the covers around her.“Who jokes with that, my dear daughter-in-law?” My father grinned, spooking me out. I hated it when he showed any hint of amusement. It meant he enjoyed preying on your weakness.“But that's really impromptu. The end of the month is like two weeks away.” She continued her argument but I knew it was futile. Trying to reason with them would not solve anything.“The earlier, the better,” Mel's father replied, this time.“This makes no—”“We are not getting married at the end of the month,” I cut in. “This is something that concerns Mel and I. As the parties involved, we would be the one to decide when

  • Love in the Headlines    About time

    REIGN'S POV The tension was thicker than my waist. I could swear everyone was holding their breath, waiting for something to happen?This was a meeting I never could have predicted even if I was a seer. How could such a bizarre thing happen?“Father?”“Dad?”Mel and Ivan said simultaneously, each of their wide eyes set on their fathers. Why were they here together? Based on my impression of them, I don't think they cared about their children enough for them to leave everything they were doing to check up on them.“Dad, what are you doing here?” Mel asked, adjusting then wincing at the movement.“Why? Do I need to send you a letter before I visit you now? Haven't you rebelled enough?” Richie Anderson said, walking into the room further.“That's not what I meant,” Mel sighed.“You sustained minor injuries. Why are you moping around on the bed, looking pale? You like to see everyone revolving around you, is that it?” Her father bellowed.My face settled into a frown. How could he say so

  • Love in the Headlines    Ugly head

    IVAN'S POV “Are you okay?” That was all I could ask. I had no idea what happened. One minute, she was putty in my arms, moaning and whimpering and the next, she was far away from me, staring wide eyed at her phone. I couldn't make sense of it at all. She returned her phone to her pockets when I tried to check what she was looking at, then grabbed the flask and smiled at me like everything was okay, but I could see past it. After that, we made our way back to the hospital.Something was going on and it was on her phone.I had to get my hands on her phone.“Of course, I am,” she smiled and got out of the car.I frowned as I watched her walk away. Why couldn't she tell me what was bothering her? Was I not someone she could depend on? I knew I had let her down a few times but all of them were to protect her.I took the car to the parking lot in a hurry and made my way to Mel's room. Maybe I could convince Mel to help me find out what was going on. But that will be later. I still had to

  • Love in the Headlines    Persuasion or Seduction?

    REIGN'S POV “Don't you think it's weird?” I asked as I tasted the chicken soup. I nodded in satisfaction when the taste suited my buds before dropping the spoon and leaving it to simmer for some time.“What is weird?” Ivan asked, while opening up the flask I will use to pack the food.“Christian and Mel. I just think it is very weird that he offered to stay with her. Or am I just paranoid?” The last part was directed at myself. “I think I am. I mean, what could possibly be between them?”“Nothing in this world is certain,” Ivan replied. “Just like I never thought I would grow fond of you and now here I am. That is why I think anything can happen.”“They wouldn't do that to you.” I shook my head. “That's right. Christian even has a girlfriend. I feel bad for thinking that way about them now.”“They broke up.”“What?”“They're no longer together.”“Woah,” I breathed out. “That's crazy. They looked really in love when I saw them together. Is that really how fast relationships end?”“The
