LOGINALDRIC POV “Congratulations on your pregnancy, though I really hoped we'll have more time to talk.” I said, my heart tearing at the thought and I don't know why but the thought of Elena carrying Adrian's child…No, I shouldn't think like that, so instead I forced a smile on my lips and turned around. I walked away but I could feel that my heart remained right where Elena was. What is wrong with me again?Why are my feelings getting mixed again?Immediately Elara paused and turned to face me, I almost ran into Elara but I stopped and made it seem like I wanted to stand right in front of her. She blinked, taking a step back. “Why…why are you standing so close to me?”“Shouldn't I be?” I asked, trying to ignite some chemistry.Maybe I was feeling this way because I had avoided Elara and Elena for a while.Elara chucked, taking a step back, “You should, it's just…we haven't spoken in awhile and this is just sudden and weird.”I scrunched my face, “Weird? I may have been an ass but I'm s
ELENA POV Aldric leaned on the rail next to me, letting out a sigh. I couldn't help but stare at him, he looked exhausted but still handsome as ever.My eyes slowly trailed down to his strong arm as his muscles flexed through his shirt, slowly my eyes landed on his hands, his fingers fixed together. I bite my lip, my body immediately reacting to the thought of what those fingers could and can do to me. I miss Aldric and so does my body.My eyes slowly lifted, going to his face, his eyes, his nose, his perfectly plump lips and…oh my God, his sharp jawline.Did he always have a well chiseled jawline? Oh God, Aldric is so…“I hope I didn't startle you.” Aldric said, pulling me out of my imagination.“Huh?” I said, shaking my head as I tried to calm my body down from my very wild imagination. I blinked a few times.Well you can't blame me, Aldric and I haven't had sex in a while with everything that has been going on and I miss, no, I need him.“Oh, no, no you didn't startle me. In fact
ALDRIC POVI got out of my car as I walked into my house. I checked my watch to see it was past six pm which means Elara should be waiting in our room. I began walking to our room,when my phone rang. I pulled out my phone and Charles showed on the id caller. I quickly picked up the call turning around,“Charles, what do you have for me? And please let it be something good this time, not something I already know.” I said walking to my study so no one could hear my call.“Aldric, always about work and straight to the point. Can't I call to say hi?”Charles' voice ran through the phone, it was very obvious that he was amused. He always smiles and doesn't know when I'm serious and neither do I know when he's serious.“You and I both know that this matter is more important than calling to say hi.” I said sitting on my seat relaxing more into it as I waited for Charles to reply.Charles chuckled, “Oh man, you're clearly obsessed with your wife. Why would you even want me to spy on your wif
ELENA POV It's been two days, Elara has been acting completely different. I can't recognize my own sister.It's like deja vu. It's reminding me of when she broke up with Lucas, her attitude, transfer of pain so she doesn't feel it. But then she opened up to me, why won't she open up to me now? She keeps treating me like a stranger but I'm not a stranger, she's my twin, my other we complete each other.But now I feel distant, no, I am distant. At first I thought she was annoyed that she lost someone and her other second person being her husband is occupied with me, that's why I decided to stay away from Aldric, so that Elara can heal without being pressured or like she's in a competition.But that's not the case, now, she's showing me that she's boss and I'm just someone who is in a place she's not supposed to be and would be evicted soon. Every day I walk in egg shells so I don't get on her bad side, especially ignoring Aldric.It hasn't been difficult to avoid Aldric since he was p
ALDRIC'S POV It's been two days and Elara has been bent on avoiding me and I've got no leads on my suspicion. Something is just not right. I said, staring at my laptop at work. I haven't been able to work or think straight with everything that has been happening, especially with my father's words lingering in my mind. Why would I even think of letting my wife go?“Mr Aldric?” My secretary tapped on my table, catching my attention.“Yes?”“Are you okay sir? You've not said anything since you asked me to come here.” He said with a worried face.“Oh, yes, yes. Well, the files on greenwood contract, I've read through and we'll be meeting them tomorrow to finalize our partnership. That's all.” I said dismissively.“Well, sir, we're actually meeting them today,” he said looking at me confused.I'm never the one to be confused or forget about meetings, especially meetings that would bring more money to me.I sighed, “Yes you're right. We should get going.” I said standing up.“Mr Aldric,”
ALDRIC'S POVI slept alone in my bedroom. Well I didn't really sleep. I kept turning since I couldn't help but wonder what was going on with my wife. One moment she's all loving like she normally is but then the next she changes like she's being controlled.When I could finally be at peace was when I saw her sleeping peacefully on the big couch. She looked at ease and it made my heart pound.I shouldn't feel that way since she has been acting weird but I still love her. She's afterall mine. I thought of placing a kiss on her forehead before making my way to the bedroom and here I am.Staring at the ceiling with sigh, waiting for Elara to come back up. Just when I was about to give up, the door opened and Elara walked in. I quickly closed my eyes pretending to be asleep but I tried to watch her with my eyes slightly closed. She slowly closed the door when she saw that the door that my eyes were still closed. Gently she walked to the bed dropping the pillow then she walked round to come
ALDRIC POV I stood next to my car waiting for Elara to come out. We're going shopping for our vacation to Honolulu.I hope Elara wasn't disappointed in me for even thinking or saying that she got a hickey. I sighed out as I remembered the look of shock on her face. I should make it up to her today
ELARA POV I breathed out softly trying to calm my nerves.I stood in front of Aldric's study, contemplating whether I should go inside or not. Adrian kept his promise about making sure Aldric and I have the house to ourselves. Since Aldric was in his study, I went into his room, a place I never st
ELENA POVI felt sun rays on my eyes as I tried to avoid the disturbing ray. I didn't want to wake just yet.I groaned and turned my body making an impact with a wall or was it a body. It was so warm and welcoming. I subconsciously scooted closer to the warmth as I laid my hands on the wall as I t
ELARA POV Coming back home I thought that everything would work out perfectly well.Elena would hand Aldric back over to me so she could go live her life and I continue to be me and Aldric will never find out but I was wrong.
