“Ugh—!”

Another violent cough tore through my chest, thick blood splattering onto the dirt beneath me. My stomach burned where one of them had struck me earlier, the pain so sharp it made my vision blur.

I tried to push myself up, tried to stand, but my legs refused to cooperate. They felt like dead weight, useless beneath me.

How the fuck was this my fault?

How was it my fault that she wasn’t scared of her husband? That she didn’t distrust him, didn’t recoil in fear like they wan

  • Married The Wrong Groom   Chapter Two Hundred Five: Awake

    Alliyah AgustinI slowly opened my eyes and instinctively glanced toward the bed beside mine. The empty space that greeted me was enough to make my heart sink for a brief moment before reality settled in once again. Alex was still not there.Pushing those thoughts aside, I forced myself out of bed and began getting ready for work.Sometimes, I honestly didn't know where I found the motivation to keep moving forward every day. Perhaps I was simply throwing myself into work because it was easier than sitting alone with the constant ache in my chest. Maybe staying busy was the only thing keeping me from breaking down while waiting for the day Alex would finally wake up. The uncertainty was exhausting, and every passing day felt heavier than the last.After taking a long shower, I carefully did my makeup and dressed in my best business attire. Looking presentable had become second nature, even on days when I felt completely exhausted inside. Once I was satisfied with my appearance, I gr

  • Married The Wrong Groom   Chapter Two Hundred Four: Worry

    Alliyah AgustinPhilip let out a heavy breath before slowly shaking his head, a faint and awkward chuckle escaping his lips.“Sorry, my reaction must have seemed strange to you, didn’t it?” he said before his expression softened. “I just remembered everything he endured during this war. Honestly, that man is practically a superhuman.”He leaned back slightly and folded his arms across his chest as if recalling the countless moments he had witnessed firsthand.“He was hit by more bullets than anyone should realistically survive, and even after all that, he still managed to carry you back to the boat after the explosion. Most people would have collapsed on the spot, but Alex kept moving.”My chest tightened as I listened.“He's terrifying in his own way,” Philip continued quietly. “Not because he's cruel or reckless, but because there isn't a limit to what he's willing to sacrifice for the people he loves.”His gaze lowered briefly before he looked back at me.“He would do absolutely an

  • Married The Wrong Groom   Chapter Two Hundred Three: Exhaustion

    William ColeThe intense heat from the explosion scorched against our skin even from a distance, carrying waves of unbearable warmth across the dark ocean as though the fire itself was still reaching for us.Thick smoke poured into the night sky, spreading endlessly across the horizon and filling the air with the bitter scent of burning metal and destruction. Behind us, the deafening sounds of collapsing structures continued to echo through the darkness, each crash and explosion serving as a reminder of how close we had come to dying.Everything around us seemed to dissolve into chaos.The raging fire.The endless darkness of the ocean.The smoke swallowed the sky.The violent waves are crashing against the boat.It all blended together into a dizzying blur that made it difficult to separate one moment from the next.The boat rocked dangerously from side to side under the force of the shockwaves still rippling across the water, and all of us struggled desperately to remain upright.

  • Married The Wrong Groom   Chapter Two Hundred Two: End

    William Cole“Where are they?” I asked the second we arrived at the dock where the boat had been hidden, my voice sharp with impatience and exhaustion after everything that had already happened that night.We had been delayed because of another mafia organization that suddenly decided to interfere in a war that had never involved them in the first place. The chaos they caused forced us to split our attention, and Astley ended up shoving the responsibility onto me without hesitation. As if dealing with one disaster wasn’t already enough.“They’re still there; they only have five minutes left.” Orange pointed toward the far end of the area, and the moment I heard those words, I sprinted in that direction.My heartbeat was pounding violently against my chest with every step I took, but the scene waiting for me there was something I couldn’t fully process.Kassandrah Lilac Crimson was being dragged away by the Smiths alongside Chester, both of them surrounded by armed men on every side.

  • Married The Wrong Groom   Chapter Two Hundred One: Smiths

    Alexander Nicholas Astley“Where the hell is William?” I demanded as I strode toward the hotel, its once luxurious exterior now reduced to something straight out of a dystopian nightmare. Smoke lingered in the air, the shattered glass beneath our feet crunching with every step, while distant screams and gunfire echoed through the ruined halls.“We still can’t contact him, boss,” Malix answered cautiously as he kept pace beside me. “But his men said he’s safe, and they’re already heading to our location.” He glanced at me with obvious concern before adding, “You seriously need to take it easy. Your body hasn’t fully recovered yet.”I let out a bitter scoff, forcing myself to keep moving despite the pain tearing through my body. “I’d rather die than sit there doing nothing while she risks her life trying to save the people who destroyed her.” My jaw tightened as anger burned through me. “Those two are the reason she was also sold off in the first place.”“Kassandrah made a promise to

  • Married The Wrong Groom   Chapter Two Hundred: Traded

    Alexander Nicholas AstleyFlashback//“Let’s make a deal, Astley.”It was the fourth—or maybe the fifth—time I had heard that woman repeat the same damn sentence, and every second she wasted felt like another strike against my patience. The sound of her voice was beginning to crawl under my skin. The room already reeked of cigarette smoke, fear, and desperation, and the fact that they still thought they could negotiate with me was honestly insulting.I leaned back against the leather chair and stared at the two idiots standing in front of me like they were some kind of comedy act.“Do you two have a death wish?” I asked coldly, my voice low enough to make the room fall silent. “I already gave you the money, and now you’re telling me you can’t pay it back, and now making a deal with me?”The man beside her immediately looked nervous. His hands twitched at his sides, and sweat had already started forming along his forehead despite the cold air in the room. He looked like he was about t

    Alliyah Agustin-AstleyI couldn’t sleep that night.Every word he had said crept into my mind uninvited, looping over and over until my thoughts felt tangled and restless. No matter how I shifted beneath the sheets, no matter how tightly I closed my eyes, sleep refused to come.What he said last ni

    Alliyah Agustin-Astley“A bullet wound?”The words barely left my lips as I stared in shock, my eyes glued to Alexander’s leg while Claire carefully worked on him. I watched, frozen, as she placed the bullet onto a small metal plate after removing it. The faint metallic sound echoed in the room, s

    Alliyah Agustin-AstleyI was practically buzzing with excitement when Alexander pulled into a drive-thru instead of heading straight home. He ordered far more than necessary—multiple sundaes, extra fries—and before I could even comment, we were already driving again, the city slowly thinning out b
