Ashes Between Us! のすべてのチャプター: チャプター 61 - チャプター 70

Author's POVEgon was kicking the bag continuously, drenched in sweat and pain from head to toe. He finally stopped when the bag fell down. The pain in his body was nothing in front of the pain he was feeling in his heart. He sat down beside his bed on the ground breathing heavily. It's been six months since he has seen her face. He is dying without her. He hasn't slept for nights because her face haunts him everywhere. He left the castle and came to the city in his bungalow, which is closer to her. That castle was eating him alive. He has broken his countless phones to stop the urge to call Ruby so he can ask her to show him the Emerald. It's hard, worse than death. He is just living with the news that she is doing fine. His men are around her, protecting her at all costs. He left the castle, the darkness there was haunting him. He came to a new house in a city which was also dark, he changed its aesthetics so he could feel peace of mind, but it didn't work either. He was not

Author's POVEmerald waited for him to answer which didn't happen. "No matter how much I like to admire you closely like this, I think we should start now."She teased and sat down beside him. "Ma'am, I think the presentation is supposed to be explained while standing."Ron suggested. Emerald gave him a mocking look. "Who made that rule?"She looked at Egon, who was still trying to recover from whatever was happening to him. He is yet to believe that this is not a dream. "Well, I don't mind doing that if Egon wants me to stand."She teased him again with a mischievous smile, and he gave her a ghostly look. Ruby interrupted. "Let's finish this quickly!"Emerald left her playful self behind once she started the presentation and explained everything professionally. "Any more changes, although you have already made a hundred."Egon was just admiring her the whole time; he didn't even listen to whatever she was saying. He just wanted to hold her in his arms, hug her tightly and b

Author's POV "He gave you approval?"Ruby looked at the sign shocked, hard to believe that Egon agreed to keep her around him."Why do you look so disappointed?"Emerald raised her eyebrows at her. "Disappointed because I don't want you to break your heart..."Ruby sat back on her chair."What if things don't go as you want? What if___""What if he hurts me? What if he kills me? What if he takes advantage of me?"She gasped dramatically."What if he breaks my heart?"She rolled her eyes."You are such a scary cat... I know what I am doing, I know how to manage my feelings... If things didn't work then I'll quit. It's not that deep."Ruby sighed, knowing Emerald doesn't know that things are deeper than she thinks. Her sister thinks it's just a random attraction but will fall deeper into it once she steps into it. She was just worried that they would hurt each other in the process. "Fine but don't test him too much..."Emerald smirked."You leave that to me!"Egon, on the other hand

Author's POV Emerald uncovered herself from the bedsheets and grinned evilly. Everyone was asleep, and she was ready to sneak out of the house. Well, she is not really scared of her but Ruby scolds her whenever she asks for clubbing. She can fight with her, but she knows that Ruby is worried for her, and that's the only reason why she denies it. Emerald doesn't want to disrespect her love for her, so she just does it behind her back. She looked at herself in the mirror, black dress, high heels and matte lipstick with wavy hair. She kissed herself in the mirror and sneaked out of the house. Egon got a call from his men as soon as she stepped out of the house."Wrong move, my love."He got up from his bed."Why is it so difficult for you to stay without making any trouble?"He grabbed his car keys. Emerald checked and was shocked to see that all clubs were closed today. She couldn't understand why. "Wow, what a great night!"She huffed and decided to go back home, but before that,

Author's POV Emerald was set on the timeline, she would finish the whole world in a week and leave. She was so mad at him that she didn't want to see his face. And her blood was boiling even more after he asked her to apologise. She was controlling herself from killing him. Egon, on the other hand, was missing the attention he used to get from her. Her naughty stalking and flirting used to make him excited but now everything is dull again when she is not paying attention to him. He decided to mess with her to get a reaction from her. No matter what the reaction is, she looks even more sexy when she is mad at him. But he would be careful not to get slapped again because even though those hands are delicate, they sting a lot. He went to check on the work, and she was working on a laptop while her team was painting walls. He sulked when she didn't look at him. Emerald noticed him looking at her but didn't bother to acknowledge him. Egon sighed and went to the gym, worked out, and
