Reclaiming His Ex-wife; At all costs! SIXTY TWO
KELLAN'S P.O.VDallas's quiet was different from Austin's quiet.At least there, it buzzed with work and people and meetings, the noise could make the murmurs in my head less loud, but tonight, sitting on the porch with my old man, under the full light with the sound of crickets and the tinkle of our glasses, the silence was deafening.I cut a glance at the man next to me who was on his third bottle of beer. His dark hair was streaked with grey and his eyes were always hollow. My father had been an alcoholic since I was a kid. After my mom's death, he managed to curb his excessive intake, but every now and then, he still loses his self to alcohol.Even though I sent them lavish gifts and plenty of money, I rarely visited my family, and by family, I meant my father and grandmother. They were the only family I had. Both my parents were only children so I have no uncles, aunts, or cousinsFather slammed his bottle of beer down on the small stool between us. “I don't believe it” he voice

ASHLEY'S P.O.VSquare one.You could say I was back to square one. No, actually, square one was better. Square one was me watching cheesy romance with the girls, eating everything Jackie offered me.Square one was me wishing Kellan would give me his time and attention and hadn't lost sight of our marriage and love.Square one was where the girls tried to fix me up with a blind date that Kellan hijacked just to see me.So no, I wasn't in square one. I was lower in a deep, bottomless pit. Whatever this place is, I can tell you it's not rosy. I've cried so much I ran out of tears and energy too, if it weren't for the girls who had turned my apartment into a camping base, I didn't know what I would have done.Two days.It's been two whole days since Kellan reached into my chest, pulled out my heart, and smashed it. Since then, I've considered calling him more times than I can count.Every time I type a text addressed to Kellan, explaining the conditions surrounding the baby and why I cou

ASHLEY'S P.O.VI sat in a pool of shredded white satin. The pieces of the dress lay haphazardly on the floor, just like the pieces of my shattered heart. There was nothing inside that place anymore, no beat, no life. Nothing.“Fool” I cursed. Him, myself, both of us. My eyes were hot, my temperature was burning up, and my tongue tasted acidic. “Stupid fool.” My haunted curses echoed through the darkness of the Briarwood. Yes, like Genevieve had so many times implied, I was a fool.My numb fingers fumbled for the pieces of white on the floor. I reached for them again and began shredding with every ounce of strength left in my body.I was such a fool, for keeping this useless wedding dress, for clinging to a part of my love for Kellan. It hurt to even say his name in my mind. God, this was too much for me. I never knew love could hurt so much. I didn't think there'd be a day when Kellan would hate meHe loves meCorrection: He loved me.Snot filled my nose, and prickly, sharp tears

KELLAN'S P.O.VIf I drove into another car, I wouldn't be surprised.Wouldn't that be a better option than this fire inside my chest, it was burning me whole, consuming me. My eyes burned, and my erratic breathing made it hard to breathe. I managed to focus on the road in front of me as I drove. My heart racing faster than the car.The leather groaned underneath my merciless grip and the fire in my body blazed behind my eyes.‘Men don't cry’ I could hear my father whisper into my ears. The sting in my eyes threatened to spill out. I clenched my jaw hard, so hard it might have snapped.‘Men don't cry Kellan. Men don't cry’ it was me whispering to myself now.The blaring of a truck horn made me jerk into reality. My tyres screeched on the gravel road as I tried to maneuver away from the truck.I hadn't been looking at the road, or more correctly, I was looking but not seeing anything.“Did....” I hated how I sounded. I hated how broken she made me. I hated...“Did you think about me, w

ASHLEY'S P.O.VHearing Kellan was here was like a lifeline pulling me from the pit I was in.Hearing Kellan was here was like falling deeper into said pit, too.“Kellan Langston,” The guard repeated when neither I nor Genevieve said anything. My hand trembled by my side, the dried tears in my cheeks were sticky and my throat was clogged with emotions.My heart fluttered in my chest, hope spread to life in my veins, giving me strength, giving me a voice. “He's...here?” I asked quietly, like I was too scared of what the guard's answer would be.Was he joking? Was this Genevieve pulling a stunt to torment me?Was Kellan really here, in the Harrington's manor? But..he hated this place. I don't know what Genevieve and Pete had done to make Kellan hate this manor, he swore we would never step foot back here. One time, I had jokingly asked him the place he wanted to be last on earth, and he said he'd pick a literal hell over this manorAnd now he was here...for me. To get me backOh God.The

KELLAN'S P.O.VThere was a parasite inside me.It slithered across my spine like a snake, fed off my sanity, and coiled its weight deep in my stomach. Point is, I couldn't stay still. Not with the way I was seething and dying on the inside.The moment my jet touched ground should have given me a reprieve. Instead, after waking a grumbling pilot from sleep and enduring forty-eight minutes of restlessness in the air, we finally arrived in Dallas.A sleek car waited by the tarmac, ready to take me to the Harringtons’ manor Ashley Harrington's manor. The heiress to the Harrington's legacyMy fingers curled into a tight fist, and that parasite in my stomach fought and lashed in my mind to be free and spread its venom.My shoulders were stiff and my body tense as I slid into the driver's seat of the Range Rover SUV. The blood flowing in my veins was simmering with impatience.The engine roared to life, leaving a cloud of dust behind me as I zoomed away. My grip on the wheel hardened, and s
