All Chapters of Bound to my Ex-husband's Deadly Rival : Chapter 1 - Chapter 8

Elara's Pov*****I clutched the paper in my hand, my entire life staring right back at me, and I was about to sign it all away for the chance to make my husband love me again.“It's okay Elara, you're doing it for a good reason,” my bestfriend Alexis said, patting my back slowly. It was almost like she knew I needed the reassurance.“What if he still doesn't change? then I would have lost everything for nothing,” my shoulders dropped as I thought about what was at stakeMy marriage to my husband wasn't like it used to be before, and with each passing day, I could feel him moving further and further away from me. No matter what I tried, he didn't change, he doesn't talk to me, he doesn't touch me, he doesn't even look at me.On some days I even felt like he despised me, like he didn't love me anymore. But Alexis always made sure I didn't get consumed by those thoughts. I know Dorian loves me, he always has, our marriage is just going through a phase and everything will go back to no

I squeezed my eyes shut and opened it again, hoping they were playing tricks on me, but sadly, they weren't.Who is this man??? The cold air from the air-conditioning hit my body and I immediately realised I was naked, I gasped and dragged the duvet to cover myself.I tried to recall want happened last night, but I couldn't. The only thing I remembered was the kiss and then he carried me to the bed. The rest was a blur.But considering the fact that I was naked, it was obvious we had sex.“Fuck!” I cursed. And here i was thinking Dorian came back for me. So delusional.I have to leave, and I have to leave now, before this gets more complicated than it already is.I put on my clothes which were carefully folded on the bedside table and tiptoed towards the door, my purse and heels in one hand as I twisted the door knob with the other….but it didn't budge.I tried again and again, but the door was locked shut.“I figured you would do that…..” a deep baritone voice sent vibrations down m

I didn't want to believe it at first, that my parents were alive, that Axel had something to do with it, but with the evidence Cyrus showed me, there was no denying the fact.For the past three years, I've been in and out of therapy, struggling to accept the fact that I was an orphan, mourning my parents who were in fact alive. Just because some inconsiderate evil monster who saw humans as pawns decided to abduct my parents, and fake their deaths for selfish reasons.“Elara you have to play it cool, confronting him is out of the question,” Cyrus insisted.“Yeah I know that, if he could make my parents disappear from prison, there's no predicting what he can do now that he's out.” I got up from the bed and folded my hands, pacing back and forth.“We need to get enough information and more solid evidence and bring it before the FBA, we might not be strong enough to take him ourselves but the American government can help us do that.” Cyrus was right, going against him ourselves was sui

I got back to the spa just as Cyrus was walking in and We went straight to the massage room together before heading into the sauna.The temperature in the sauna was a bit higher than normal, but not too hot.“How's it going with you and Axel?” Cyrus questioned.Axel.I couldn't help but smile at the thought of him, how he just bought a million dollar company in my name.“He's okay,” I said in a low tone. “Do you think maybe he's not all bad?” I asked him.“Elara.”“I mean, maybe we're missing something and he's not the kind of person we think he is.” “Did something happen? Did he say something to you?” Cyrus placed his hands on my shoulders and turned me to look at him.“It's just….” I hesitated for a second then continued, “he's been nice to me, and…and I don't know…..maybe we're just misunderstanding him,” I lifted my gaze to meet Cyrus eyes.“Elara, I don't know what he's done or what he's said to you, but trust me, it's all part of his games. I mean, we're talking about the same
