Ever since I first started to know Axe's dark side. Never once did he bring up Uncle Danial's crimes, which were probably embedded so deeply in the roots of his soul. Axe only told me that Danial Xandersis was Danial Gorson. The Gorson who was always throwing tantrums and pestering his life.
Even about the abuse that Uncle Danial did, I was the one who provoked him to admit it all. Otherwise, he wouldn't have said anything at all.And even now, if this video didn't exist. I would never know what really happened to Axe. He never really opened up. Even letting me accuse him at will. He's too much!I sighed for a moment, before resuming the paused viewing on the screen. My eyes instantly heated up when the scene showed them dousing Axe with water to bring him to his senses.Once they got what they wanted, Axe opened his eyes. Everyone immediately swore with pleasure, until three of them split up to pull the table high enough to bring it closer to the side of the bed. AnI'm so really sorry, Axe.I kissed him on the forehead for a long time. What else should I define Axe with? He's been patient enough with Uncle Danial so far. Although I know Axe prefers to attack his enemies subtly and from within. Do you still remember Uncle Danial's shares that were taken over by Axe? That's one of the proofs that confirms that Axe is not just silent letting his enemy move a step."What are you doing, Bridgette. Why aren't you sleeping?"I think my actions woke Axe up so much that his head shifted slightly to avoid my lingering kiss on his forehead. He was a little startled to see us so close or maybe he sensed my current weirdness? I don't know."Are you cry?" Axe asked spontaneously. Why did he realize my code so quickly?Of course I was still sobbing and that probably provoked Axe to ask directly."Bridgette," Axe called, waiting for me not to answer him. I didn't know what to say and was afraid to raise my voice. It's not the answer I'll give, it's the tears th
Obviously my question succeeded in creating shock on Axe's face, maybe he didn't expect that the thing that made me sad was the reality he had to face himself. I had to say that, Axe forced me to speak. I didn't want him to leave in such pain.However, it looks like I took the wrong action. Because the next thing I got was a glare from Axe, and his hand that slipped away from my face."What do you know already? Who told you!"My body was jerked back by Axe's push. His face turned fierce after hearing my answer. Really. This wasn't what I expected. Axe couldn't be mad at me just because I knew his secret. After all, he himself wanted to know why."Why do you like to meddle in my business so much, huh!" asked Axe with his breathing getting heavy. "You're being presumptuous, Bridgette!" he continued, ending with a rude swear and a rude grab of his hair.I couldn't let Axe stay in that position for long. Quickly, my body moves towards him. Axe is overreacting! What's
Three days after the wet incident. Early in the morning, I was surprised by Mr. O'Connor at my door. He said that the best psychologist in London and his nurse were waiting for Axe for trauma therapy. Axe would be given somatic therapy of the binding or restraint type to avoid the risk of him harming himself again or even endangering others.However, I refused because I felt that Axe's current condition was stable, the man was not having a tantrum. Wasn't it yesterday that we were able to talk eye-to-eye and that was enough to make him feel good-very good in fact.As for Axe who might still be afraid of people out there, it's just a matter of time. Eventually, Axe will recover if he gets used to it and forgets what happened.It is true that this binding therapy will not hurt Axe. But, who can bear to see a loved one having to wear a commissol, jacket and leg and hand restraints. I can't bear to see Axe struggle against himself. As long as he's stable, a consultation is e
"Now let me treat you.""No need.""Why? I'll just put this on. That's all."I'm sure Axe objected to my wishes. Though there were no more protests from him as I set to work, applying the ointment I'd shown Axe earlier.Axe's breathing slowed with his eyes closed as my fingers touched the line of his shoulder."Does it hurt?" I asked once I was done.Axe doesn't answer, instead resting his head on my shoulder. Inhaling the scent of my body deeply."Axe, what's wrong?""You accused me of having sex with another woman. That means I don't have your trust."That's not it! Where do I get the idea that he's being abused, my mind screamed out loud.I was just about to speak. The sound of knocking from outside followed by the door opening made Axe quickly slam my body onto the bed with him acting as a shield for me, blocking my half naked body from anyone, who had disturbed us.But the screeching sound that came out spontaneously made me sure it w
My gaze never left Axe since 15 minutes passed after he consumed his mother's milk. His behavior was suddenly strange with the occasional unreadable look thrown at me.I tried not to be affected by anything. But the sudden movement of Axe stepping into the bathroom made me end up following him. He was confusing and it was enough to worry me.Somewhat incredulously I find Axe allowing himself to be showered again. This time he's standing with his hands repeatedly brushing his hair back.God, Axe. He completely forgot that his body was still warm. Even though his fever had been gone for three days."What are you doing, Axe?" I asked, unable to stand watching him enjoy the water splashing on his body."Go away, Bridgette. You'll torture me by being here," Axe replied this time with his head down.What did Axe mean about me being here? I just stood there, not doing anything that could harm him and potentially hurt him."You're confusing me. I don't want to go
My breath hitched repeatedly as I looked at myself in the mirror. Everything was prepared, it was just a matter of leaving. Afterward, I can ask the doctor what exactly happened. Why I was bleeding after having sex with Axe."Are you sure you want to go to the hospital?"A deep, husky voice and a pair of hands wrapped around my waist made me stare in our clingy position.Axe's question was strange. He had offered to go to the hospital himself, but now he was hesitating. I quickly gave Axe a nod in response. Besides being curious, I wanted to confirm the condition of my child as well. How old was it in my womb? I hadn't had a check-up since I was pregnant."I'm sure," I replied quietly.There was a sigh from Axe before he answered me calmly. "Abort. I think I'm being too harsh to be like this.""No, you're not. I'm still going to sign." I didn't believe Axe's words. He's not a doctor. He could be wrong too."Suit yourself. Now let's go. The car is rea
"Where are we going, Axe?" I asked, surprised to see him dress me up like a wonder woman in a tight all-black outfit, for the inside. The outside of my body is covered in a fiery red dress, where the fabric legs dangle down."Party. Witnessing your uncle's destruction."My uncle's destruction...He doesn't bear the name Xandersis, does he?Should I do it? Of course I should. For now I was on Axe's side. It wasn't easy for me to watch my husband go through such a difficult time, he was physically and mentally hurt by that depraved man. Thank God Axe didn't contract venereal disease, which maybe—God forbid - one of them did.Yes. Earlier, just before nightfall. Mr. O'Connor brought in a doctor to examine Axe's body in detail. Although he had refused, Axe finally agreed to be reviewed. Based on the results of the post-mortem on Axe's body-the part where he was s*domized, there were abrasions that were almost dry. Axe complained to me that he didn't like his fat
"Turn around, Bridgette."Ah, me?Turn around for what?I'm sure Axe recognized my confusion to chuckle impatiently and immediately pulled me around his body. Our positions change with me turning my back to Axe.I feel a feather-light kiss on my shoulder for a moment, before a white gold necklace with a sapphire gem is perfectly clasped around my neck. What's wrong, why would Axe suddenly give me a necklace full of sparkles in a situation like this."It will keep you safe. I don't know where the bracelet I gave you a few weeks ago went. Did you throw it away or eat it?" Axe asked, bringing me back until our bodies were facing each other.God! I just realized that the bracelet he gave me is no longer in my hand. I never once took it off during our separation. Where did it go? "Never mind. Forget it. You don't have to think about your bracelet anymore. But promise me to keep this one," Axe said as he touched the sparkling blue stone that was currently arou
