Alexander’s POV

I had told her I’d be gone for at least a week, but I didn’t make it clear exactly when I would return. So, it made sense that she froze on the stairs when she saw me in the house. What I wasn’t expecting was her in a silky pyjama shirt and shorts, much less for that to immediately create some unexpected shifts in my brain chemistry. Also, there was something in her mouth. That same milk box she had at her place. My brows furrowed. How d

  • My Dear Nightmare    Chapter Twenty-Six

    Alexander’s POVThree knocks on the door. I knew it was Daniela because no one else in this household knocked more than twice, and also because I had just sent for her. And now for some reason, I felt nervous.Jason and Kathy had already left, but his chastisement hadn’t managed to leave with him. So yeah, I was frustrated. Also, I hadn’t seen Daniela since the day I seized her last batch of milk boxes. You would think that was impossible. Sure, I owned a large house, but we lived on the same floor- her room was next door to mine. She probably just made sure she stayed in until I had left for work. I caught myself smiling in amusement and corrected that briefly.I didn’t even know my own intentions, calling her to my office. I just couldn’t help but be concerned about what Jason said regarding her taking her own life.“Come in,” I said with the highest level of disinterest I could muster, shutting down my thou

  • My Dear Nightmare    Chapter Twenty-Five

    Alexander's POVWomen. That word was a very troublesome topic, familiar, but mystifying in the same respect. I hadn’t been really close to my mother when she was alive, and I have never been charitable enough to get to know the women I had been with on a more personal level, not even Delphine. So, it was no surprise I was staring out into the window wondering what two women who did not know each other could possibly talk about, apart from the obvious common denominator they had. In other words… Me.“This is your way of getting back at me, right?”Jason scoffed behind me and pulled a chair out for himself. “What use would that be to me. It’s not like you would divorce her today.”An amused smile pulled on my face and I turned to face him. “I don’t even think I hate her as much as you do at this point.”“I don’t hate her. I just don’t agree with this whole thing.”“Right. I wouldn’t have known.” I rolled my eyes and sat. “So, if that’s not it, what’s your reason f

  • My Dear Nightmare    Chapter Twenty-Four

    Daniela's POVI did call him. Sue me. But he didn’t answer. After that I left my phone in my room and sequestered myself in the family room, lest I did something as stupid as double calling my cheating ex. Correction: cheating and lying ex. Because he had to be lying about that text he sent. But what exactly could he be lying about?His text flashed in my memory once again. What truth did he know? That the marriage was fake? That Alexander was threatening me?I pulled my thumb out of my mouth. I wasn’t even someone who bit their nails. I had been here for nearly six hours and yet I still hadn’t succeeded in distracting myself. I closed the pdf I was reading and shut my laptop. I was only deceiving myself if I thought I could finish the book today. I went to the window and slid it open, stepping onto the balcony. This one overlooked the front yard, unlike the one in my room. So I was able to look out into other houses, watch la

  • My Dear Nightmare    Chapter Twenty-Three

    Daniela's POV“People who scroll on social media first thing in the morning when they wake up are less likely to be successful in life.”A slogan of majority of social media lifestyle influencers.That didn’t stop me though, in spite of my guilty conscience, from looking through my phone, to find a distraction or anything that could keep me in bed for longer. But apart from the books I had recently downloaded and the devotional my aunt had sent for this morning, there was nothing pretty to see on social media.My feed was still pretty saturated with news about my secret wedding and I wasn't in the mood for restructuring my algorithm now.I groaned and threw the covers off of me. I guess facing Alexander this morning was inevitable. “God help me.”I swung my legs off the bed and my eyes fell on my nightstand. I had left my milk box there last night, but now the straw was out, lying against a circle of dr

    Alexander’s POVI had told her I’d be gone for at least a week, but I didn’t make it clear exactly when I would return. So, it made sense that she froze on the stairs when she saw me in the house. What I wasn’t expecting was her in a silky pyjama shirt and shorts, much less for that to immediately create some unexpected shifts in my brain chemistry. Also, there was something in her mouth. That same milk box she had at her place. My brows furrowed. How did she get a hold that?Her eyes widened as she slipped the straw out of her mouth. Her eyes moved on to something behind me. For a moment, I forgot I had brought Kathy along to finish up some work. She didn’t know the details of our marriage, but I didn’t need to put on that much of a newlywed show. So I just put on a ghost of a smile and opened my arms towards her. “Surprise.”As if the universe wanted to drive the point home, she came running down the sta

  • My Dear Nightmare    Chapter Twenty-One

    Alexander’s POVI swirled my drink in my glass yet again, focusing on the clinking of the ice in it. I was glad the deal went through, but I stayed for the for the after party for appearances sake. That didn’t mean I had to pretend to be enjoying it the whole time. Engaging with people for long periods wasn’t something I looked forward to, but I managed to suck it up whenever I had to.Today was different. I was too tired to have meaningless small talk with other business men, and as much as I wanted to blame my disinterest on my social battery, I couldn’t, because that would be a lie.I glanced at the most recent of the messages Mike had sent in regards to what I had asked of him.She’s in the family room, as usual. Reading,It was almost ridiculous, how I looked forward to these updates. I could easily pass this off as making sure she didn’t try anything funny. But even I with all the pride I

  • My Dear Nightmare    Chapter Seven

    Daniela's POVBy the time I was back in the car and enroute to Jackson tower, Alexander’s building, I felt like an entirely different person. No, not in a good way. I didn’t feel like my own person anymore, and it wasn’t entirely an exaggeration. Alexander had to

    Daniela’s POVThere was so much I didn’t understand when I was a child. I was the only child of my parents and I lived in a relatively big house in a nice neighbourhood.
