Alexander's POV" X, once you cross this line, you can't go back, you know that right?" Jack asked me. We had just arrived at my friend's house to discuss a new partnership, it is time for me to do things on my own, that means that I have to have my own people that I can trust. The people who are currently on my payroll are the people who loyal to my father, well most of them. I need to make sure that all that I do is to show that I am my own man. My father thinks that he made me but he is wrong, I made myself. " I know..." I said just as my buddy was coming down the stairs in a silk robe, a cigar in one hand and a glass of whiskey in the other. I swear he thinks that he is the next playboy CEO. " Ahhhh Alexander... You have finally come to my humble abode." He said. Firstly this was nothing even close to a humble abode, it was a three storey house. " Nice to see you again old friend." I said to him. " I see that Jack is still following you around like a puppy." He said. " F*k y
Ella's POVHow did I get here? Isabella went home two days ago and we still haven't said anything to one another. The worst part of this is that the nightmares are back again. At this point I don't even want to go to bed. It is like I was ghost in a time loop doing the same thing over and over again. The dreams are always the same, no matter what I do I just can't seem to see the face of the person with the gun and even though he was the one with the gun, I saw a lot of blood in my hands." Ella you need to speak to someone about this." Alex said to me. I was sleeping in his bed which is what I have been doing since the night of the night club. Most people say that their dreams are way much better than their reality but for me it's different. My reality is way much more better than my dreams, because in my reality, I have Alex Black to hold me. " I will be fine, it is just dreams. " I said to him. " Not if they keep on coming back like this, you hardly slept for the last two nights,
Alexander's POVThe last couple of days have been going well for me. As far as the Columbians are concerned, I am no longer their problem and they are no longer mine, actually they are no one's problem now. I paid a lot of money to make a lot of people disappear, I am glad to say that it was not all wasted. Killing them would have been too easy for them, I had to bring them down and send a very powerful message. Their powers lies with the supply of the drugs they give to us. I knew that the only way to get rid of them, was to get rid of their business, since I am now in business with my Italian friend, I don't need them anymore so my guy burnt everything. Their fields and even their stash houses, then next we took all of their money, even the accounts they didn't think we know about. They have no drugs and now they also don't have any money, as far as I am concerned, they won't be in business for a long time, that is if they even recover. My father and I have a lot in common but we
Ella's POVGod Alexander told me that he wants kids. That means that he is willing to have a baby with that woman, whoever she is. I don't know but I am not okay with that, it hurts me to the core. I don't understand why he hasn't told me just yet. I don't know why he is being so sweet to me and why he is trying to make it seem like everything is fine. He found out that he is going to have a baby with another woman and he is not bothered by him. I never thought that a day would come when I would be jealous of a baby and yet here I find myself wishing that the baby didn't exist, hoping and praying that it is not true. That is what I tell myself to make myself feel better about this whole situation. I am consoling myself and thinking that maybe that is why he didn't tell me because that woman was probably lying. I suppose a part of me should have expected something like this from a man like Alex, he is a certified playboy and I was a fool to think that I could change that. Maybe this
Alexander's POVIt has been well over a week since my wife had a fight with her best friend, I would like to say that things are getting better but I would be lying, if anything things are only getting worse. They have been friends for a long time and I am sure whatever it they had a fight about was something big. I could see that Ella misses her friend and so I wanted to fix things between them. I feel like I should have just let things go, that I should have let them sort out their issues on their own.I won't lie, right now it feels like I have bitten more than I can chew. I thought that speaking to Isabella might actually help so I took the phone and I called her. I asked her if there was anything I could do to help and remedy the situation but she flat out told me to stay out of it, she said that they will sort out their issues in their own time. I suppose that is where I should have left it right? but instead I wanted to know more. I had to know what happened.Ella told me that
Ella's POVI got off the plane and wondered what to do next. I didn't exactly have a plan of action, all that I knew was that I just couldn't stay in that hotel suite any more than I had knowing that my husband was out with another woman who is not me. I just couldn't bare the thought of him coming home smelling like cheap perfume and booze. I know it for a fact that if I let him go on like nothing happened then I will be opening up a while new chapter that I didn't sign up for. I can't have him sleeping with me while sleeping with other women. How could he even let another woman answer his phone? I didn't know how to react to that. No one told me that I would have to deal with a cheating husband. You know I have always been the one to judge the women when their man cheat on them, now I realise that I might have been too harsh because it is not their fault. I mean look at me. I gave him the very best parts of me and even that was not enough. Chad was an a** but at least he tried to
Alexander's POV.I have been losing my mind the entire morning trying to find out where my wife went. She didn't even leave a note, I have been calling her non stop and her phone is not working. Panic was taking over as I was scared that something bad might have happened to her. I just took down an entire cartel in Columbia and I am sure that they are not happy about it, they could still want to come for me and since they made it clear that they want Ella, I was twice as worried.Firstly I had to find out if she left here unwillingly. I went to the hotel security and demanded that they show me the footage from our floor. They showed me the footage and I saw one of the staff going into the suite then a couple of minutes later he came out carrying luggage and Ella was walking behind him. She left willingly and after all the missed calls I got, I assumed that she knew that I was out doing no good. I thought that she might have checked into another hotel so I personally went to every hot
Ella's POVI don't know how long I was asleep but I know that I haven't slept that well in a while and for the first time in weeks, I had no nightmares at all. It was clear that being here was already doing me some good. I had no idea what coming here would bring me but so far it has been nothing but good. The bedroom they moved me into was big, but then again nothing about the South is small. I got out of bed and opened the curtains. I opened the glass door and I went out into the balcony. The air was fresh, I could see the cows eating grass. It was just a wonderful sight. Who knew that farms could be so calming? It looked like it was about to rain. I went back inside and freshened up. The fact of the matter is that I was trying to pretend like I was fine, like everything was good under the sun but I know better. My heart feels like it is shattered into a thousand little pieces. I was okay and then the second I thought of Alex, everything came to me like a wave.Everything I have be
