★★ "Sto-op!" Bella's broken voice plead, trying to move her fist, and she successfully swung her fist across Angela's face which angered her more. Her fingers choked Bella harder, and the knife touched Bella's cheek with its sharp end.Suddenly, a ball of light entered, smashing the wall around behind them. Angela pushed the knife into Bella's cheek and it cut a little when she got kicked by Xavier. Bella fell to the ground. "You bitch, I told you not to touch her," Xavier angrily spoke and came to Angela. His one foot smashed her face when another violent figure entered, storming the things around with soulless eyes. He went to the unconscious woman on the ground and grabbed her close. "She is bleeding," he murmured, placing his hand on her chest to feel the heart. His hand trembled on her back when he felt her slow, thumping heart. His clenched face rotated behind where Xavier had still held the woman on the ground with his foot. "Not now. Jehovah is here. Take Bella to a place.

★★An uncertain glint passed through Xavier’s eyes while a small flame burnt orange for a second before vanishing it.“I didn’t know that,” Bella mumbled in a soft voice due to the pain in her throat. Also, she was lying about not knowing Angela’s feelings because that woman had shown her disdain toward her from the beginning when Bella and Alex were not involved romantically.“Doesn’t matter. She should have measured her place,” a deep and angry tone muttered near Bella, flaring his nostrils like a dragon that Bella gets to see turning her face to him.“I-I,” whispered Bella. Alex softened his gaze before facing her, and he said, “Do not feel guilty. I dislike disobedience. If she hadn’t met her death today, I would have shown her how to perish over and over. That would be more painful than what she got.”“Humph!” Came a lazy hum from Xavier as Bella noticed Xavier stood from his seat. He turned his face with a smile that didn’t seem like a proper smile.“Take rest, Bella. Ther

★★Bella heard him grumble in between the kiss while she was still in her playful mood. And why wouldn't she? Hasn't she learned from him how to make things difficult in this sort of situation?Bella gave him butterfly kisses on his lips with several small touches, igniting the fire in him. Her fingers trailed down from his neck to his chest, sensually, sharp nails circling the half-opened chest.Alexander opened his eyes and allowed his hand to teach the woman a lesson as they went backward and grabbed Bella's neck, causing stiffness in her spine. Bella unfurled her eyelids and looked innocently at the man.“What? Am I not good?” whispered Bella, who continued her tease with every breath.Alexander gave her a half-smirk smile, liking whatever she was doing, but the devil would dominate in the end. He planted a kiss on her temple, then dragged them onto her lips and captured them hungrily. Bella’s eyes rolled back as her body slackened like jello, and further melted with a small

★“I believe you have a powerful memory, King. Besides, family comes first. Don’t you think?” said Jehovah, after taming his frayed nerves, repeated inwardly not to free the sanity.“That’s for you, uncle. Me?? Eh!! I don’t have family or lineages, not planning to either,” Alexander said with the corner of his lips upward while his eyes turned red and the bulk of smoke left his mouth toward Jehovah.“That’s what I was expecting from you. Alright, now come to the point. The marriage should be quick for good. Tell me the way of your marriage. Till then my daughter has decided to stay here,” Jehovah said his order solemnly, not wanting to hear Satan’s crooked and insulting words.“How about if I silence your daughter before marriage to please myself? Our old-school fun, I know you are aware,” Alexander put forth his offer, puffing on the cigarette, slowly releasing the smoke out in rings. The cloud over his face didn’t hide his smirk and blazing red eyes that taunted Jehovah over his

★★★ “You are rude,” Bella smiled as she said, and she liked it. “Don't you wish to see my horses?” Alexander mentioned as the didn't want to brag anything about Xavier. Holding her on his lap, Alexander didn't feel like letting go of her. He wondered for a brief second if he wanted her to move from him. “Yes, of course. Will you, please?” Bella pumped in excitement and got down from his lap without him allowing her. He didn't make a fuss though, however, he did not like his empty arms. “Let's go. First, change your outfit into a warm and comfortable one,” suggested Alexander, pushing himself off the chair. Pleased by his offer, Bella ran straight to the house. Alexander waited for about ten minutes as Bella came in her cozy outfit, and didn't forget to put on a jumper as the cold weather made it a bit difficult for her to go in jeans and a top. Alexander stretched his hand forward to Bella to hold, which she clasped gladly. Bella loved all these little things that required only h
