Alice’s POV

My eyes fluttered open, fighting the lingering haze of sleep. The window cast a soft golden light across my face, waking me up. I sat up, rubbing my eyes. The couch was empty. My gaze darted around the room, searching for Klaus. A rush of heat swept to my face, ears and neck as memories from last night flooded my mind.

Then, the bathroom pushed open, letting out a cloud of warm steam. My eyes went wide at the sight before me. Klaus stepped out, wrapped in a large white towel, se

  • Sweet Revenge of The Rejected Daughter    Chapter 29

    Alice’s POVMy gaze was fixed intensively on the screen. A blush crept to my face.“Klaus was…defending me,” I muttered under my breath.If he didn’t care, why would he do this?“Anyone who defames my wife, will hear from my lawyer.”My grip tightened around the phone. Warmth spread through my chest.No one had ever defended me like this before. Not my father. Not Nathan. Not even Michael. Yet, Klaus had done it without hesitation. My mind trailed back to the text message. “He saved you not because he cares…but because you’re still useful.”My chest tightened.“Do not trust Klaus.”I shook my head.What if it was the same person who lured me to the old train station?What if it was another attempt to manipulate me?I thought of how Klaus had rescued me from the men. The way he had carried me like something…precious. Delicate. The way he had helped in treating my wounds. Cared in a way no one had ever done.None of it felt fake. It felt…genuine.Why shouldn’t I trust a man that has

    Victoria’s POVI paced around the room. “C’mon Michael. Pick up the damn phone.”Why wasn’t he picking? This was the twentieth time I had called. Yet, nothing.Then, it no longer rang, instead, it became switched off.“Fuck!” I yelled, dragging fingers through my hair. What could have happened?Or was it…“Nah,” I shook my head. “Klaus doesn’t care enough to go that far for her.”Suddenly, a notification popped up on my screen. BLACKWOOD HEIR MISSING AFTER LEAVING THE GALA EVENTMy heart sank. Color drained from my face.“No,” I muttered under my breath. Another notification appeared. My breath hitched violently. It was images of Michael’s car. It was parked somewhere unknown and empty.KlausIt had to be him. For the first time, genuine fear crawled down my spine.Was it possible Was it possible he really cared about Alice?I clenched my fists till my knuckles turned white. If Klaus was willing to go after Michael…Then I might be next.Woke up the next day, still no news

  • Sweet Revenge of The Rejected Daughter    Chapter 27

    Alice’s POV I stared at the screen speechlessly. What does it mean? Who could have texted this to me? My breathing became uneven. Could Klaus really be trusted? Then realization hit me. I never told Klaus where I was going. So how did he find me? I shook my head. Maybe he used a tracker or advanced technology. My eyes became heavy, my head falling onto the bed due to exhaustion. The sound of the door opening made my eyes snap open, waking me up from my sleep. I rubbed my eyes, yawning. Klaus walked in. He looked fresh, wearing a properly ironed black vintage shirt. “Good morning, wife.” “Morning.” “Trust you slept well.” Immediately, I remembered the text message I had received. With a narrowed gaze, I stared at him. “Y-yes. I did.” “Good,” he said. “You didn’t sustain any major injury so you’ll recover fast.” Klaus sat on the bed, his fingers brushing my hand. I flinched, shifting away from him. His brows formed into a knot, a flicker of displeasure crossing

  • Sweet Revenge of The Rejected Daughter    Chapter 26

    Alice’s POV Klaus laid me on the bed gently, like something that could break. His gaze softened, never leaving mine. Subconsciously, my eyes looked deep into his, before trailing down to his tempting red lips. For a moment, the world paused, narrowing to just us. My heart couldn’t help but sprint against my ribs. “Klaus,” I whispered weakly, “Thank you.” Klaus stood up, picking up a black leather medical bag. “Don’t thank me yet.” “Because…It’s going to hurt,” he added. “Huh?” What did he mean? Slowly, he wore medical gloves, fueling my confusion. To my dismay, Klaus brought a needle from the bag, his expression calm. “What…what are you doing?” “Relax, I’m not going to use this,” Klaus chuckled, amusement in his voice. “For now.” My eyes widened. “What do you mean by that?” He didn’t respond. He turned, his gaze lingering on my bruised cheeks, swollen lips and the cuts along my arm. His expression darkened. Before I could say a word, he walked ou

    Alice’s POVThe scarred man stared at Klaus with narrowed eyes before his lips lifted into a cruel smile. “Wife?” He repeated, gripping my hair tightly. “Who the hell do you think you are?”Klaus’ gaze hardened, locked on the man’s hand on my hair. “What if he called the police?” One of the men whispered nervously, his eyes darting around.“I doubt,” the man with the scar replied. “He’s just an overconfident fool.”Klaus didn’t just walk, he strolled. Each step was slow and heavy, as if claiming ownership of the ground beneath him. The moment he got closer, his striking face was revealed under the flickering light. One of the men that had been quiet all along suddenly gasped. “K-Klaus Gambino,” He stammered, his body quivering. The other two men's mouths dropped, fear etched on their faces. The smile on the scarred man's face faltered, his expression turning grim. “I quit,” the man added. “You never told me it was Klaus Gambino’s wife! Even if you want to die, do you have to dra

  • Sweet Revenge of The Rejected Daughter    Chapter 24

    Alice’s POVI stared intensely at the screen before me. “Meet me at the train station before the church, at eight.”My brows furrowed. Why the old train station?No. I wouldn’t go. Nothing about this felt safe. But if I didn’t, I would never know the truth. My fingers raked through my hair. “What to do now?” I muttered under my breath. The ticking clock only added to my anxiety. 7:30. I had only thirty minutes to decide. I bit my lips, pacing around the room. This was dangerous. But it was also an opportunity I couldn’t miss. Taking a deep breath, I made up my mind. I was going. But there was only one tiny problem: how do I get out of the house without anyone noticing?Clad in a black over-sized hoodie and black trousers, I left my room quietly. Slowly, I tiptoed down the stairs, my eyes darting left and right. With shaky hands, I wiped the sweat that slipped down my face. The house suddenly felt quiet. Too quiet. As if it was watching me. The dim lights cast shadows
