"I miss you and love you so much huh?" I was startled when I heard Ethan's voice behind me. "Who's that?! Your man?!" I closed my eyes when he screamed. He held my elbow so tightly that I winced from the pain. "Ouch, E-etha--" "Answer me!! Do you have a boyfriend?!!" He tightened his hold on my elbow even more. I immediately shook my head. "W-nothing" He threw me on the bed and ran. he brought his face close to my ear and whispered. "Just make sure. Because it's time to find out if you have a man. I won't think twice about killing that man."
|CHAPTER ONE|
"CATHERINE!!" I heard my husband scream from the living room. And because of the fear that he might beat me again, I quickly went to the living room.
When I got to the living room, I suddenly dropped the spoon I was carrying, since I was cooking in the kitchen.
My husband is drunk, based on his appearance while kissing another woman.
I was stunned. Both of the woman's arms are wrapped around my husband's neck while my husband's left hand is wrapped around the butterfly's waist.
My hands clenched in anger.
I can't do anything, because he will surely beat me again when I find out about his girls.
Both sides of my eyes are burning. I want to cry because of the anger and pain I feel right now.
when tears fell from my eyes I immediately dried them with my palm.
I was about to turn around when my husband stopped kissing his girl and looked at me.
My face was blank and I was still embarrassed.
he withdrew his hand wrapped around his woman's waist, and faced me.
"Have you cooked?" He asked coldly.
I nodded and looked at his wife who didn't even remove her arms from wrapping around my husband's neck.
I wanted to rush at the girl and tweak it, but I stopped myself.
I looked away and picked up the spoon I dropped earlier.
"I-I'm just going to prepare the table, so you can eat," my voice rasped.
"Hey thank you! I'm really hungry too. please hurry up!" My husband's wife said happily with a playful smile on her lips.
"Let's just wait, Chesca." My husband said and they went back to what they were doing earlier.
So I turned my back completely and started to prepare so that they could eat his naughty girl.
AFTER I prepared the table, I immediately went to the living room, to call them, and to eat.
"E-ethan. The p-food is ready." I'm with my husband.
He and his girl stood up from sitting on the sofa and walked towards the table.
I followed them silently.
they immediately sat down and started eating.
I poured their glasses of juice, then was about to leave in front of them when Ethan spoke.
"Where are you going?" He asked in a cold voice, and didn't even look at me.
"Just in the bedroom." I answered him in a low voice.
He didn't answer and continued eating again. I just bowed and started walking towards my room.
When I entered the room, I immediately locked it and leaned against the door as tears continued to flow down my face.
I released all the anger, annoyance, and pain I was feeling by crying all over.
I put my two palms on my face while still crying, and when I got tired of crying, I just stood up and went to the bathroom to take a shower.
when I got dirty because of my shower. I immediately changed into a comfortable nightgown and took out my keypad from the bag.
I immediately called the number of my friend who I have known since high school until now.
"Hello, Rina?" He immediately said when he accepted the call.
"Jane, how are you?" It was obvious that my voice was hoarse because of my crying earlier.
"I'm fine. You? Are you crying? Rina, don't lie to me. Did your shameless husband beat you again?!" There is anger in his voice.
I sighed. "I'm used to it Jane. and he didn't beat me today. But he brought another woman. How is Rex?" I asked him.
He also sighed violently. "He's fine. Looking for you again."
I felt a pain in my heart when Jane said that.
"Apologies. I know I visited him yesterday, but we only bonded for a short time. Jane, Ethan found out that I left yesterday so he beat me up and slapped me again."
"That's really shameless!!" He shouted.
"Jane, it's my fault too." I gently told him.
he breathed again. "Okay fine. Just be careful next time, huh?"
I nodded "Yes, thank you. Please tell Rex that I miss him too and I love him very much."
"Alright, I'll tell him." And that's where Jane and I ended our call.
"I miss you and love you so much huh?" I was startled when I heard Ethan's voice behind me.
Why did he get in? Did I lock the door? Where is Chesca?
He was amused by my reaction. "Tsk. The door was locked so I used the key. and when I opened it, I immediately heard what my wife said that she misses him and loves him very much. Who is that? Your man?"
So, that's all he heard? damn
"E-etha--"
"Who's that?! Your man?!" I closed my eyes when he screamed.
He held my elbow so tightly that I winced from the pain.
"Ouch, E-etha--"
"Answer me!! Do you have a boyfriend?!!" He tightened his hold on my elbow even more.
I immediately shook my head. "W-nothing"
He threw me on the bed and ran.
he brought his face close to my ear and whispered.
"Just make sure. Because it's time to find out if you have a man. I won't think twice about killing that man." He threatened and immediately left from running to me and left the room without hesitation.
"Wait! Where are you taking me?" I anxiously asked. I already have an idea of where he's taking me, but my mind is still hopeful for a positive answer. It seems unlikely now as he takes large strides towards the Police Station. "Just a moment, Mister! Please don't take me there! I haven't done anything wrong to you," I plead, on the verge of tears. "You trespassed," he replies, pulling me along. I almost stumble due to the force of his grip on my wrist. "I was just hiding!" I shout, but all I can see is his broad back. Handsome? The hell, Adriana? You still have time to compliment this guy despite what he's doing to you? Blood rushes to my face as we finally enter the station. Cubicles and policemen fill every corner. People are complaining, and some are even arguing, with a police officer trying to intervene. Good heavens, Adriana. What have you gotten yourself into? "Good evening. What's the matter?" A police officer greets us and quickly approaches. I force a laugh and shake my head. "Nothing, sir! Just passing by—" "I saw her hiding inside my car. I don't know her. What charges can I file against her?" he interrupts. My lips part in horror. I look at the man beside me, briefly seeing how handsome he is. But fear and anxiety prevent me from admiring him further. "Quit it! I'm just avoiding my debtor!" "Did she steal anything, Sir?" I shift my gaze to the police officer. He looks at me for a moment. I sniff, holding back tears. "None. I don't have important things in my car. But I don't like the idea of a stranger hiding inside it while I'm out. Don't you think it's dangerous? What if she has malicious intentions?" My forehead wrinkles at his words. With one hand, I slap his arm. How pretentious! "And what harm could I do to you? Look at your huge physique! Do you think I can do anything to you? And even if you have important stuff inside your car, I don't care!" I yell in frustration. People are now looking at us, but I ignore them. Damn! I feel so frustrated and messed up right now. What does he think of me? Committing a crime? Being a thief? If only I could reveal my true life situation, I would. But I can't. I gulp as the man's dark eyes settle on me. He raises an eyebrow, as if finding my words unbelievable. "This woman seems to be telling the truth, Sir. She looks decent and doesn't seem like she'd do anything mischievous," the police officer says, looking at me. I smile at him, relieved that he sees me as a decent person. The policeman smiles back, but his gaze travels down my body. I frown at the kind of look he's giving me. "Looks can be deceiving. Send her to jail and let her stay there until tomorrow. If you won't do it, I have no choice but to file a complaint against you," he says, releasing his grip on my arm.
"Can we just forget that? I want you to forget what happened last night, that was a mistake!" She shouted at me, she's angry. Now I know why she's blushing, it's because she's angry but— what does she say? Forget? Immediately my head heated up because of what she said. "Mistake? Forget? how can I forget that moment whenever I will see my bed your naked body was the one who I always see there? ”I shouted at her, I am now mad. I slowly approached her. I saw how her cute eyes forms into a big circle when I step closer, once again. "D-Demeur ..." she called my name sweetly. That would have worked for me if I was in the right frame of mind but I'm angry now. I am now mad because of what have she said. "How can I forget that whenever I will close my eyes your lovely moan were the one I will here?" I asked her. "C-Can you p-please stop–" "How can I forget that when my body and mind is always looking for you? Tell me Anaya, how can I forget that night? How can I forget that baby?"
"I'm Pregnant." I mustered up the courage to say those words in front of my husband. But he slapped me. My cheek tilted due to the strong force of his palm landing on my cheek, At the same time my tears began to fall. "Stop this bullshit!" he shouted loudly and threw the glass he was holding in front of me with all his might. I felt my toe splash because of the pain. I sat on the floor and did nothing but cry. How do we go wrong? "Did you hear me? I'm pregnant with your child." "Abort it". this cold answer to me made my heart tingle even more with pain. I couldn't believe looking at him. "W-what did you say?" He looks at me with disgust on his face. "I said Abort it, I don't want to have that damn child and I never wish to have a family with you, disgusting, so now leave and better get rid of that Fcking child." He firmly promised, you hurt me again for next time I am already crushed. How can you be so ruthless with your own child? I'm His Obsession that's why he doesn't want a child, all he wants is me. my body. He has everything, wealth and popularity but he doesn't know how to love. He's a CEO for fuck's sake. He can revive this child but he prefers to lose him because of his selfishness.
I smiled at my husband. They are the best gift of all. And here I thought I was an Unloved Princess. The first thing that was happened in Datlia was just a challenge, a challenge for me. And the one who stole my first kiss became my loving husband. You really can't tell the future. The future is unpredictable, and I am happy that it despite the challenge that I've been through, I didn't give up. Now this is the payment of all those.
I SILENTLY stared at the emptiness. I could see from the veranda the lights in the neighborhood. I gasped. How I wish I could be one of them --- an ordinary person who is free to live as normal. I am KEINTH LUCAS HARRISON, from the best clan in the town of Sta. Monica. I have no friends, and I used to be alone since then. But I'd rather be like this, than let other people know my secret, or should I say .. My family's SECRET.
‘Did you hear?’ ‘Is that in the news?’ ‘Yes, the demon and angel race will be together in one school.’ I stopped walking when I heard that, demon race? I looked at the large wall that was blocked on the side of the building. it was a large concrete wall that separated the building of the demon and angel race within the campus. I just shrugged. This world contains angels and demons. Originally angels and demons were really enemies because of their origins. but everything changed when the God who kept the ‘world balance’ abandoned this world, which leads to both races in chaos. After that both sides formed a truce and they both live happily ever after- just a charot joke. The truce was only formed because unknown species suddenly appeared. It appeared when God abandoned us. That unknown species killed a lot of demons and angels, as long as they’re all black with red eyes. (Just like enderman in minecraft but red eye axle) They are called the corrupted species. .no one knows where it came from, so both sides formed a truce to fight this species.

"You're mine, little puppy," Kylan growled against my neck. A soft gasp escaped my lips as his lips brushed my skin. My mind screamed at me to push him away-the Lycan Prince who had humiliated me again and again, but my body betrayed me, leaning into him before I could stop myself. He pressed his lips against mine, and his kiss grew more aggressive, more possessive as I felt my legs weaken. What was I doing? In a split-second, I pulled away and slapped him hard across the face. Kylan's eyes darkened, but the smirk on his lips exposed his amusement. "You and I both know we can't fight this, Violet," he said, gripping my wrist. "You're my mate." "And yet you don't want me," I replied. "You told me you were ashamed of me, that l'd never be your queen, that you'd never love me. So please, accept my rejection and let me go." "Never," he whispered, his grip tightening as he pulled me closer. "Soon enough, you'll be begging for me. and when you do-I'll use you as I see fit and then I'll reject you."
