Lock her

Alina's POVI opened my eyes, and this time around, to my pleasure, Edrick wasn't missing. He was lying beside me, with his arm wrapped around my waist, his eyes shut and his breath steady.The feeling of his skin rubbing against me made me heat up again.I fought the temptation to look under the sheets. We both had nothing on.Even though we were still together, in the same bed, I wanted to go back to last night. To him pinning me on the bed after ripping my shirt off.I wanted to feel the sweat that dripped down from his body to mine. I wanted to feel his lips. I wanted to feel every inch of him inside of me again. I wanted it all."Morning, love."I almost jumped up at the sound of his voice. The hand he had around my waist was now moving softly around my back."Morning."I faced him, and I swear his smile widened. My heart did that little flutter thing. I wanted this moment to last forever. I wanted this to be our happily ever after.Edrick leaned in to press kisses on my neck, th

Decline

Aria's POVI was in bed.Rotting would be the right word.I was tired. Worse, I was frustrated.They had one job: attack her and make her regret coming close to my husband.I hissed, knowing it wasn't their fault. She was not home.Liana wasn't home. Where did she spend the night? With whom?Of course, I knew the answer. I clenched my jaw, and a painful throb started at my temples, growing stronger the longer I dwelled on it.Edrick really is repeating history. First, he was all over Alina. I got her out of the way, and for years all I wanted was for him to want me the way he wanted her. What did he decide to do with all my efforts and the patience I put into waiting for him to heal? He runs off to the new blue-eyed slut.Just when I thought I was frustrated enough, some bitch knocked on my bedroom door.My first thought was to ignore her, but the person was so persistent and would not stop knocking.I hissed, forcing myself out of bed and dragging my feet to the door.Anna."What?" I

Agony

Edrick’s POVEven after standing under the freezing water, the anger within me continued to burn.I had already made up my mind to ditch work again. I cannot add Adrian's whining to my list of problems. I put on a pair of sweatpants and a shirt, then joined Alina at the dining table.Alina.I haven't had time to digest all the information from yesterday. It was crazy. Crazy to refer to her as Alina even in my head.We haven't talked about it properly. I don't know, it feels like a little precious bubble we don't want to pop.But we had to.“Hey.” I sat beside her. The housekeeper had prepared breakfast before we returned from the station. I was looking at freshly made pancakes with scrambled eggs. Alina was already diving into hers, so I did the same.“How? Alina?” I asked.Maybe it was the question, or it was the name that made her jerk up. This might not have been the right time, but I could not wait. Staring at the woman in front of me, with golden hair and blue eyes, with a face t

False

Edrick's POVNo.I wanted to say no. That it can't be.That the woman I had been feeling bad for was the one behind the fire.It cannot be.I needed someone to hold my hands and tell me it was a big fat lie.That Aria did not attempt to kill her own twin sister.How can she be that cruel?"What are you saying, Alina?""I heard her on the phone with the abductors. She gave the orders to burn the place." Alina sighed. Again, she was more angry than sad.As for me, I was in complete shock. Why would she kill her sister? Her own sister?My mind raced back to the day I lost Alina, how Aria acted so sad. So broken, like she cared she had lost something precious. But then, I remembered how quickly she moved on. How fast she went from mourning Alina to hating the sound of her name. I did not suspect a thing.Who would suspect a sister of burning her twin to death?"You didn't mention this, Alina. She should be behind bars now, not roaming around like she owns the city."Because now, I was not

Doom

ANNA'S POVANNA'S POVANNA'S POV"Well, well, well, if it isn't our loyal customer, Anna Vale," the short bastard said. What was even his name? I could not remember. All I knew was he was as short as a rat and skinnier than one.I wonder what he does with all his money."Just give me!" I bit out. My eyes scanned around the cold, quiet playground for a sign of anyone."I want 25 wraps." I shoved the cash into his hands. It was all rumpled from how I had put it in my pants pockets. But it should do."Uh, uh." The bastard said, giving me back my money."This would get you only two wraps."My eyes widened. I wanted to yell at him. But instead, I took a deep breath and asked,"How? It wasn't this expensive last time."He shook his head as if he was pitying me."Sorry, baby. Inflation." He raised his hands in the air."But this is all I have," I said. God, this lunatic has no idea how hard it was to steal this stash of cash from Dad's study. He has no idea how hard it is for me. He thinks b

Who?

ALINA'S POVEdrick was on the phone with Adrian.That, I knew.What I did not know was what they were talking about.Why was he being so fucking secretive? And why was I being so nosy?“Okay, it should be early tomorrow,” he whispered before ending the call.He entered the room, and I closed my eyes shut, pretending to sleep.I expected him to say something, to tease me for pretending to sleep, but instead, he lay beside me quietly and drifted off to sleep....I woke up the next morning to breakfast in bed.Edrick did not let his housekeeper prepare breakfast today. Instead, he did it himself."And where did the heir of the Vale family learn to cook?" I said, chewing on my perfectly prepared bacon.Edrick sat at the edge of the bed."You like the breakfast?" He stared at me like a little child waiting for approval."Hmm." I held my chin. "It could use a little more salt."He rolled his eyes, every innocence clearing off his face."Well, I think you have had enough."He grabbed the pl

The actual hell

ADRIAN'S POVADRIAN'S POVADRIAN'S POVEdrick had asked me to make sure the car was delivered to him early.I had just stepped out for 30 minutes. Just thirty minutes, and now, I am back to my front door wide open.I would have suspected daylight robbers, but I knew exactly who was behind this.Anna.I entered the house and went straight to my bedroom.She wasn't there anymore. But she sure did leave a sign. My room was turned upside down, wrecked.Every drawer was opened, clothes from my closet spilled on the floor, my side tables moved, my perfume collection all on the floor with a few broken glasses. Even my mini rug had been flung across the room.I knew what she was looking for. Her little bag filled with drugs. But I had taken it along with me, so this whole chaos was for nothing.I sat on the edge of the bed, hunched over, elbows on my knees, my hands clutching either side of my head. My eyes stayed fixed on the floor while my thoughts tore me apart. What should I do?What shou

Lost her

ALINA'S POV"Fuck! We lost her!" Lila gasped for air.I didn't want to give up, but she was right. Anna was far gone. It's like she's very familiar with the roads."What if she's in some kind of danger?" I asked, staring desperately at the direction she had gone through, as if she would pop out any second."I think she will be fine." Even as Lila said those words, uncertainty dripped from her tone.We started walking back to where we had left the car. Guess we cannot do anything to help her. What was she even doing with two weird-ass men? They looked dangerous. What were they fighting about?"Do you think we should tell Edrick?" I asked.I really was scared for her. Really. What was she up to? Why was she involved with people like that? The questions would not leave my head.Lila started the engine, and even as she drove off, we both looked around, hoping to see her."I think something is up with Anna," Lila said."Like?""I don't know. I just feel it. She isn't normal like before. Sh

No way

Edrick's POVI wasn't able to sleep well last night. Alina's words kept ringing in my head. Everything she said about Anna bothered me.What has she been up to? And I have been too busy to even notice my sister was going through something.I tried to make sense of the story, hoping I would be able to guess what was going on, but nothing came to my mind.Anna has never been a problematic kid, so why was she involved with weirdos now?I did not even bother eating breakfast. I just showered and got ready to move."I want to come with you," Alina said.Aria might be home, and I didn't want any drama, but I also did not have the strength to say no.We drove to the Vale mansion in silence, aside from the few "It's going to be alright," Alina threw in once in a while."Welcome, sir," the staff that opened the door said. Her eyes glanced between me and Alina, probably building up some juicy gossip. But we didn't mind her. I held Alina's hand even tighter and made my way upstairs."Edrick!" Ha

snitches

ANNA'S POVANNA'S POVHannah had called me that Edrick wanted to see me.She called me again after 5 minutes and told me to hurry up.I had asked her what the matter was. She said nothing, I should just come.I wish I did not listen. I wished I had run off to another state to start a new life.Because even though I tried to think of a thousand reasons why he wanted me home, I did not imagine what I met.Edrick was in the living room, yelling at Dad about something.I was asking what the matter was, but I could not even complete my sentence when Edrick turned to face me. A black nylon bag in his hand.At that moment, I knew exactly what the matter was.He just found my wraps.My wraps.I had no words.My mind was reeling. I was thinking of a thousand excuses.And what hurt me the most was the fact that I was going to lose this supply just like I had lost the last one to Adrian yesterday.I fought through life and death to get this much supply.Fuck. I am in debt because of it.Last nig
