LOGINMikaI let out a deep sigh and ran a hand over my face.I don’t even know if I’m losing my mind anymore.All I know is… I have to leave. Now.This is for both of us.I grabbed my bag, the one with my important things inside. I didn’t take all my clothes. Thankfully, my documents and passport were just in his drawer, so I was able to get them quickly.Once everything was ready, I glanced at him.He was still peacefully asleep, hugging my pillow. The moonlight softly hit his gentle face.I bit my lip and walked closer to him. Slowly, I sat beside him and caressed his cheek before placing a soft kiss on his lips.“I-I’m sorry,” I whispered.That was the last thing I said before standing up. Carefully, I took my things and walked toward the door.I looked at him one last time. Tears fell from my eyes, and before I could change my mind… I quickly looked away and left the room.I bit my lip as I went down the stairs, tears continuously falling.Leaving his mansion was easy.

Mika“Ma’am, it’s time to eat.”A maid’s voice called from outside my room.I didn’t respond. I just kept staring out the window, my face blank, my thoughts drifting nowhere and everywhere at the same time.“Ma’am… Sir Ashton has been waiting downstairs. He said you should eat together,” she added carefully.I let out a slow breath and glanced at her by the door, then looked away again.“Tell him I’m not hungry,” I whispered.I heard her sigh before she left. The room fell silent again.I closed my eyes, letting my tears fall quietly.Two days had passed since everything happened.So many things changed in just two days.I became quiet after that night. Ashton never gave me his promised explanation. He’s been busy with something I don’t know. I wake up in the morning and he’s gone. At night, I only feel him when he comes back and lies beside me.And in those two days… something in me changed too.I wake up early in the morning just to vomit. My head hurts almost every day. I feel tired
MikaAll I could hear were gunshots.One after another—loud, deafening, echoing in my ears until it felt like I was going to lose my hearing.I kept my eyes shut.Tears streamed down my face nonstop.I was too afraid to open them.Afraid that if I did, a bullet might hit me.My body was shaking uncontrollably. I wanted to move, to hide, to escape—but I couldn’t. I was still tied up.Screams filled the air. Cries. Begging. Pleading to stop the killing.And none of those voices belonged to Ashton.“Stop…” I whispered, barely holding myself together.I couldn’t take it anymore.The smell of blood filled the air, thick and suffocating. I felt like I was going to throw up.I hated this.I hated everything.Then suddenly—Silence.The gunfire stopped.No more screams.Only my quiet crying remained.Footsteps.Coming closer.My eyes snapped open in fear.But everything inside me froze when I saw him.Ashton.He was breathing heavily as he walked toward me. His hair was messy, his face staine
MikaI woke up suddenly when cold water splashed all over my body.A gasp tore from my lips as I forced my eyes open, my chest rising and falling rapidly.“She’s awake!” someone shouted.My vision cleared, and the moment I looked around, fear immediately swallowed me whole. The place was unfamiliar—dark, dirty, suffocating.“HAHAHAHA! The wife is awake,” a man laughed as he stepped inside through a large metal door.My eyes darted toward him. He wasn’t alone, several men followed behind him.“L-let me go!” I cried, my voice trembling. That was when I realized, I was tied to a broken chair, my arms and body restrained so tightly I could barely move.“Look at her, she’s about to cry already,” they mocked.I lowered my head, trying to hide my face as tears started falling uncontrollably. I bit my lip hard.I didn’t understand. I didn’t know how I got here.Then it hit me.The hospital… escaping… walking alone… and then—Darkness.A sharp gasp escaped me when someone suddenly yanked my ha
Ashton“M-Mika…” I called out.I didn’t expect to see her there.But what hit me the most was the way she looked at me—With disgust.Disgust.Panic instantly filled my chest when I saw it in her eyes.I tried to reach for her hand, but she immediately ran away.My heart shattered as I watched her leave.I was about to follow her, to chase after her and explain everything, but someone stopped me.I turned.Dion.Rage burned in my eyes.“This is your chance, Ashton. It’s better if she stays away from you. If you hurt her, she’ll leave you. That way, she won’t get dragged into your mess—”I didn’t let her finish.I slapped her hard across the face.The sound echoed.“Fuck your opinion,” I said coldly. “I told you—I can make my own decisions. And I will never leave my wife. I’d rather die than leave her.”My voice was firm. Final.“I don’t want to see your face when I come back,” I added in a low voice before turning away from her.I rushed up the stairs and went straight to the room. My
