Axel's POV.

"I think we need to treat this matter with great urgency, Axel." Terra's voice rang with urgency on the other end of the phone.

I listen to her calmly. And I understand her convern. We've had this conversation before after everything that happened.

Knowing Terra, I knew it was only a matter of time before she comes back with this police talk. Of course that went without saying. I am going to get to the bottom of this. I am going to get whoever broke into Kara's room and ransacked it. But I know of better ways to do it.

Definitely they were after someone. They were looking for something. Maybe Kara herself. And who knew what they would have done to her had she been in that room.

As I sat at the bar table, eyes laced on the half transparent liquid of rum on a glass mug in front of me, I couldn't help the guilt I still feel. I should have been there with her.

I never in a million times thought anything like that could happen to Kara. It was like

  • Two Months Before Leaving You   Chapter-68

    Kara's POV "I will never do as you say!" I bark back at the speaker, "You cannot make me disappear like that! I haven't done anything to you, so I refuse to do anything you ask of me!" I couldn't tell if I was being brave or stupid. I was scared of what they can do to me. I've been captured and yet I chose to act brave and scream back at this woman whom only God knows what she is actually capable of doing, even from behind that microphone. I do not want to die, but I also cannot just pack up and leave like that. Not after everything I have been able to achieve on my own, after everything I have been through. After surviving that fire, and successfully lived as a different person with a different personality. A new identity? What a joke. I refuse to give in to her threats. Even though I wasn't certain yet, I had a feeling Jade was behind this. "Isn't that brave of you to say?" A different person speaks now. Someone standing close by, to my side. I wann

  • Two Months Before Leaving You   Chapter-66

    Kara’s POV.I woke up with a pain in the back of my head, and panic overtook my mind, because it felt a lot like the time when I woke up in a hospital after surviving a house fire.Fortunately, though, this time, I didn’t have any vision problems, or at least, I didn’t think so. It was hard to be certain thanks to the possible painful concussion I had, and since I was in a dark room.But when I finally calmed down, I realized that I couldn’t move.Even though I wasn’t much of an outdoors kind of girl, I knew how a rope felt. I was seated on a chair, which explained the pain in my neck and spine, and I was tied to it.Oh, God. Even before the memories finally came, I knew what was happening.“Where am I?!” I cried out. “W-who are you? What’s going on?! Help!”“Boss lady, she’s awake,” a voice said before I could work myself into a full panic. It filled the silence of the dark room. It was a male voice with some sort of regional accent, and the voice echoed. “What do you want to do?”“T

    Kara’s POV. My realization made it harder to live with Axel, but at the same time, I didn’t want to leave him.It was just so fun living with him, even when my heart was constantly yearning for him. He did his level best to take my mind off everything that was happening to me, and took it upon himself to educate me on all the movies that he thought I needed to be educated on(because I wasn’t that much of a movie fan and being in the orphanage was not conducive to keeping up with all the best releases of the decade).I found out that while he was many things, a good cook he was not, so I took it upon myself to teach him. That led us to cooking dinner together whenever we weren’t too tired and ordering takeout.Being with him was comfortable. I didn’t have to think twice about my thoughts with him; I didn’t have to worry about being mocked or called stupid when I said that I didn’t understand something. I didn’t have to watch my every move so as not to offend him.And more than anythin

    Kara’s POV.I couldn’t sleep.It was somewhere between five and six in the morning, and I had given up sleeping after spending the night waking up from nightmare after nightmare. Every time I closed my eyes and slipped into sleep, the various demons of my life came to torment me. Unknown strangers ransacking my home, Jade threatening me, Derrick obsessing over me, stalking me and making my life hell…all of them were in my nightmares.It took me a while to get used to waking up in a strange room every single time. I’ve never stayed over at Axel’s house before, although I had been there multiple times. Axel’s place was classy, but homy too.Like, it could look like it just materialized out of a Interior Design magazine if not for all the personal touches Axel has added, like his luxurious red leather couch, all the weird ornaments, collectibles and whimsical gadgets he’s got hung up on walls and placed orderly on shelves as well as all the other things that added a special Axel touch to

  • Two Months Before Leaving You   Chapter-63

    Axel’s POV.I basically raced to Kara’s apartment when I got the call.My heart was racing the whole way, and I couldn’t believe it. Everything had been so normal when she left, and because she left with her neighbors, I hadn’t even been worried about her security. When I got her call, I thought she’d dropped her keys or something.But no. Her home had been broken into.I hated the fact that Kara’s happiness had been destroyed just like that. She was barely holding back tears when she called. I’ve never heard her so scared, not even when she’d been accosted by her ex. Perhaps it had something to do with the fact she was still not fully sober, but still!As if it wasn’t enough for her to have gone through so much trauma before coming to Newport city, life had to be cruel to her yet again.When I arrived at her apartment complex, I made my way to her neighbor’s home, where she was staying. It wasn’t the same ones who joined us to celebrate but a kind old lady who always invited us to te
