Claire’s POV

“And the winner of the grand award is none other than ...” Jeff declares, pausing a bit for dramatic effect, while everyone in the crowd, including me, eagerly waits for him to say the name.

Bursting with pride and joy, I get up with a cute smile on my face just before Jeff says my name.

I already know it’s my name he’s going to mention, after all, I have a lot of experience in fashion design, and I’m from a well-known, rich family that’s well-known in the fashion industry.

  • Winning My Angry Ex Back   Unwelcome

    Tom’s POVFinding out about Elaine’s death seriously dealt with me in ways that all the captivity and torture I endured in that dreadful forest at the hands of Jack and his cohorts never did.The grief and pain worsened as the days passed, and I holed up with my infant son in a small apartment that I rented with some money that Alex gave to me, which I promised I would send back as soon as I was settled.I tried to build up my courage to go home, meet my children, and show them that I was alive, but my courage failed me.Maybe it was because of the child I was bringing back home with me. No matter the sob story I told, the fact that I got a child out of the whole situation felt totally wrong.A few days after I got back, I somehow stumbled upon news of a series of gang-related executions that happened in the country in which I had been held captive.Alex was one of those who was killed. I knew immediately that he had been traced and killed because he helped me out. He was killed a day

  • Winning My Angry Ex Back   Civilisation

    Tom’s POVThe rest of the drive passed by in a blur that was filled with stunned silence. No other headlights of cars carrying gun-wielding criminals who wanted to eliminate us chased after us for the rest of the drive.Lena was slumped against the car door on her side, against which I had propped her lifeless body. Her head was tilted at an angle that made it look like she would soon raise it to complain about something.She’d been shot a few times before, according to what she told me and the scars she showed me, but she always bounced back every time.I kept waiting for her to inhale sharply, maybe curse lightly, or perhaps make a sarcastic remark about how this wasn’t how she planned to die. Nothing of the sort happened, though. I couldn't bear to look at her.The coppery smell of her blood that permeated the car was already enough to make me nauseous, and if I looked at her and saw her mutilated head or lifeless eyes, I was either going to burst into tears, or throw up … maybe bo

  • Winning My Angry Ex Back   Long gone

    Tom’s POVOnce we were close to the last building, before the open space that led to the fence, she flattened herself against the building, thus hiding in the building's shadow.I followed suit by copying her. She was the boss here, and if not for her, I would still be in that dingy cell. I trusted her judgment completely, but my heart was beating so fast and loud that I could swear that I could hear it.Lena unbuttoned her coat again and handed me the baby. It was then that I saw that she was wearing two coats, one of which was too big for her."Wear it around you and button up the baby in it to keep him warm." She whispered before expertly pulling out a gun from seemingly nowhere.My heart sank, but I did as she asked. Once we were sure that the coast was clear, she gestured to me, and we ran the somewhat long distance from the side of the building where we were hiding. It was then that I saw a big ladder leaning against the fence.“You’ll go first. Please be mindful of the baby.” S

    Tom’s POVLena shuddered, her eyes sad and horrified. “Tom, you won't believe that Jack had those poor infants mutilated in front of their screaming and crying parents and made them watch. He forced me to be there and watch it too, saying that I was becoming too soft and I needed to be hardened again. It was the most gruesome scene ever. The mother fainted during the whole thing, and he made them pause until she regained consciousness so that she would see the entire thing. Then he had the parents caged so that they would continue to relive the gruesome deaths of their children.”I felt sick to my stomach. “That’s insane.”“I felt so bad for that poor woman, Tom. I’ll never forget her horrified screams for as long as I live. Listen, I have a feeling that Jack was trying to pass a message to me by killing those children in front of me. He has turned into this dreadful stranger that I don’t recognize. He’s capable of anything at this point, including hurting and killing our baby if I br

  • Winning My Angry Ex Back   Whisper in the night

    Tom’s POVOh my goodness! This was exactly what I had feared would happen when she started challenging Jack. He couldn't hurt her, but he could teach her a lesson by hurting me.“What the fuck do you think you're doing, you beast? Let him go this minute. Let him go. I say.” She screamed at the guy who was taking me away.I had never seen this side of her. The guy ignored her and dragged me out of the room without a backward glance.“Well, maybe you should think about this moment the next time I tell you to keep quiet, and that little voice in your head is telling you to disobey me. Think about that the next time you get it in your head to challenge my authority. I think little Tommie here has enjoyed his freedom a little too much, if he's going around and knocking up the women here. It's time he was locked up again like the animal that he is." I heard Jack reply.Fuck! Now Lena was crying and pleading with him, apparently finally accepting the fact that here, she had no power.She bla

  • Winning My Angry Ex Back   Shattered dreams

    Tom’s POVFinally, he smiled a smile that didn't quite reach his eyes, and creeped me the hell out.“So, I guess congratulations are in order, then.” He told me, his tone even.I realized immediately that I had been deluding myself, and I was such a fool for listening to Lena and allowing her raise my hopes.Jack was incapable of being friends with anyone, let alone someone whom he had captured and tortured repeatedly for no offense.As I sat there, I knew for sure that what Lena told me wasn't going to work at all. This man had no intention of letting me leave this place.I swallowed.“ Oh yes, indeed it is. Thank you. I'm so happy. At least I can start a new family now.”“Of course, of course!"Dinner after that was awkward. When Lena came to my room later that evening, I told her what happened.“He didn't seem very enthusiastic about it, like you said he would be, Lena,” I said, unable to hide my worry, but she waved away my concerns.“Of course, he's not enthusiastic about it.
