Alexandra sat in her car with her head hung low.Ah, why had she panicked that way? Now Darius was feeling guilty for something he had not caused. And she… well she was left wondering what was so scary about liking someone.Probably the wounds caused by Lucien’s constant torment and neglect when they had been married. But even still, she had no right to stereotype people according to that experience. For all she knew, Darius might be different. No, he was different, Alexandra knew this and that was why her heart had unconsciously slipped even when she had reminded herself number of times that she had no room for romance.His annoying yet caring way of life. His humor and heartwarming characteristics. Darius was far way different from the man Lucien had been when she was married to him. Yet her heart still shrank away at the slightest thought of romance.That was something ironic being heard from the mouth of Alexandra Grey, a powerful business woman like herself, but it was only natur

The grabby and touching hands, Vivian could still feel them each time she closed her eyes to sleep and this time, she woke up with a start, screaming and struggling with the blankets draped over her body.Leonardo was quick to find his position beside her as he rushed in from the living room and tried comforting her.“Sh. It’s okay now.” He cooed softly beside her ears after successfully getting her in his arms.She felt so fragile… almost too breakable for Leonardo’s sake and each time he thought back to all the doctor said, his insides burned with anger. Vivian had not been assaulted sexually, but yet, all the bruise and trauma inflicted on her was enough to break her.And the master minds behind the whole thing were his very own grandmother and her minion. Leonardo felt rage surge up inside him. He wanted to make them pay for their actions so badly. And that was why he was not hesitating to help Alexandra one bit.She wanted dirt of Agatha Grace and his grandmother, and then she ca

The remaining few hours of the night was spent by Darius and Alexandra watching the ocean’s waves. It was a pleasant feeling yet Darius couldn’t quite shake off his conversation with Cain Michelson and found himself peeping over his shoulder every now and then and although Alexandra had noticed this, she chose to remain silent and not question him, after all, she already had too much on her plate to dish more problems out for herself.But after some time the direction of his gaze had changed and he began stealing glances at her. Alexandra noticed this and after sighing out, she asked.“What are you doing?”The reply to her question came shortly after as Darius confidently replied. “Stealing glances at my future girl friend, is something wrong with that? Or are you by any chance against that idea?”Perhaps not. Alexandra had thought later that night as he walked her back to her car and waited by her side until she had gotten in and driven away.She collapsed tired on her bed when she g

After Eleanor had returned to her study- dismissing the rest of the house workers and giving clear instructions that she wanted no visitors until said otherwise, she collapsed into her chair and with a burning ache in her heart, stared hard at the chess board on her table.How could her life be falling apart so easily? She had used all of her tricks and even treats and Alexandra was still standing strong, meddling in her life’s plan and annoying her all the more.Oh, how she wished she could just kill Alexandra at any given moment.Before Eleanor could go to deep in her thought, she shook her head and pulled herself back to reality. She already had enough blood on her hands to be thinking of spilling more, she reminded herself. Get a grip!Adjusting to the edge of her chair, she moved to complete her chess game; however her movements halted when she realized that the Queen on the chess board was lying on its side.“A chess game doesn’t end when you lose your king; it’s over the moment

Alexandra watched from the distance as Octavia laughed loudly to the jokes of her bleach blonde companion with narrowed brows.No, she was not eavesdropping, simply sampling the situation from afar.With that thought in mind, she continues to keep an eye on Octavia, her curiosity getting the best of her the moment she saw that the Noirette was about to move away.For Some reason, she felt like she needed to follow her. So, without thinking much, Alexandra began to walk after her, only to feel a gentle pull on her arm, bringing her steps to a halt.She glanced back and found Darius staring at her with confusion written all over his face.“Where have you been?” The question in his eyes was clear, up to the point that he didn’t need to voice it.Alexandra scrunched up her face in self guilt. Oops, she had forgotten all about the handsome hunk waiting at their table.Bummer.“Where were you going?” Darius finally asked as he hesitantly unlatched his palm from around Alexandra’s arm.“I…”
