Another woman on Alexander's đđđ. May he have the strength to deal with them all
Melissa I pushed the door open, allowing the kids and myself inside the house. The day was physically and mentally exhausting, I had only planned for physically but mentally had to find a way to sneak itself inside the equation. "Aunty Jane," the kids ran towards her, wrapping themselves in her embrace. Well except one person, Albert. "Hi Aunty Jane," he said, with no remorse or enthusiasm in his voice. I sighed, gaining his attention. "Be nice Albert," I said. "Who said I wasn't nice? I just don't do hugs with people, except you. It's a childish thing," he shrugged. "Well, that explains it. You are still a child, my child, remember." The look on his face gave the next question away. We've been having this discussion for so long, as soon as he knew his right from wrong, Albert had always stayed on my neck. "Don't ask Albert," I warned him. "We've gone over this topic, over and over again. What would you do with it?" "It doesn't matter what I do with it," his voice went higher
Bree My gaze couldn't and wouldn't leave his rigid back, he was cold yet enticing. I wanted him, I didn't want to know what else mattered. Mother walked inside, not quite long, after he went inside. I ran straight to the seat beside my father. âIs it true what he said?â I questioned immediately. âLet an old man eat in peace, Bree,â he chastised but I wasn't having any of it. âJust tell me if it's true,â I kept whining like a child who had been denied candy. âWhat part of what he said are you trying to verify?â âThe part where he said he is the youngest richest billionaire in New York?â He swayed his head back and forth slightly, continuing to focus on his food. âWell it's unfortunate that you have decided to steer clear away from the media. What he is saying is true.â Thinking that my father was using me to pass time, I dug out my phone from my pocket and looked up the internet immediately. His face came into view, multiple blogs and news channels headlining him. A faint smi
Alexander Maybe occupying the space little bunny and I once stayed in helped chase the nightmares away or maybe because I felt so close to being home. The night was as smooth as the furs of a sheep, calm like a wind and serene like the lullaby escaping from the lips of a woman. The morning light forced its way through the open curtains, filling the room with its blessing. I sat up, seeing toasted bread and hot chocolate prepared on my bedside table. âLady Selene,â I said to myself, smiling. It has always been a routine for her, and she still did it, irrespective of how old she was becoming. I walked to the bathroom to relieve myself. I came out only to meet Bree sitting on my bed, waiting for God knows what. The smile on my face dispersed into a frown immediately I sighted her. âI'm very sure Lady Selene taught you better but you chose to be rude,â I said. âGood morning to you too Alexander Pierce,â she said, wearing a weird looking smile on her face. I wondered instantly what s
Melissa The audacity of this man who called himself Alexander Pierce was something I couldn't place my hands on yet. After all the things he did to scar me mentally and emotionally, he still had the guts to show his very beautiful face to me. What was I even saying? I should not be complimenting his looks at the moment but I couldn't help it. I could tell where my boys got their handsomeness from. Such a fine man, I blushed. âMiss Melissa, Miss Melissa,â the director's voice infiltrated my thoughts, forcing me out of my mental masturbation. âYes sir,â I composed myself and stiffened my gaze. âI'm saying that I'm giving you the rest of the day away since Mr Alexander Pierce wants to see you. You can dismiss whatever you are doing and carry on,â he said. For a moment, I was glad that I could use the rest of the day to relax and definitely have time to pick my kids up at school. But I refuse to give Alexander that satisfaction. There was no point arguing with the director, I simply
Alexander The kind of luck I had always baffled me, especially when it came to fixing my mistakes with Melissa. First it was Cindy, now it was Bree. I turned to look at Melissa, she had a neutral expression on her face. âWhat are you doing here Bree?â I asked again. âAre you following me?â She wore an irritating smile on her face, shrugging her shoulders. Her hands went over themselves, resting directly under her bosom. âWell you could say that,â the smile disappeared from her face immediately after she ended her statement. Melissa still wasn't saying anything. It looked like she was enjoying the show that was going on between Bree and I. I closed the space between Melissa and I, trying to find the most sincere words for her. There was no point trying to act all tough in front of her when she literally just saw me a few minutes ago at my most vulnerable. âMelissa, please I know I messed up again. I'm never going to be tired of asking for more chances.â âI don't know why you are
Lady Selene Immediately the door went shut, my eyes came in contact with Bree's. She was cradled up in my husband's arms, crying profusely. We all knew how badly behaved she was, we hoped and prayed that she would change but it felt like we were being punished for something we don't know. She released herself from Carlos' arms and ran straight to me. Her eyes were puffy and red, she was in a very pitiful state and I could only wrap her face in my wrinkled hands. âWhat did he say mother? How is he? Does he want to see me?â She attempted to go into his room but I restricted her from moving forward. âTo be clear Bree, Alexander doesn't like you. Not even to the way you think, he doesn't have an iota of feelings for you.â I could see the veins standing on her neck, the tears were coming in fast and she tried to hold them back but it was all futile. She broke down like a river turned into a dam, breaking barriers and destroying everything along its path. She fell to the floor, holdin
Alexander As soon as the first light forced its way into my room, I pushed the comforter away from my body and walked into the bathroom. Knowing that my stay in Carlton was over, not my best yet but at least I was able to figure out where my wife and kids were. I decided to leave that morning without informing the Thatchers. I arranged the few clothes Lady Selene had got me in my wardrobe. My suitcase was small and concise, I didn't come with so much luggage. I took a quick bath and wore my suit. The door seemed to open at that moment, Lady Selene walked in with a tray of food in her hand, smiling. âGoing to see your wife this morning again?â She asked, sitting on the bed. âYeah I plan on doing that before I get to the airport,â I said. Her head snapped in my direction immediately the words sank in her head. âAirport?â She stood up and stayed in front of me, still, I refused to meet her eyes. âYou are leaving? So soon?â I wrapped her hands in mine. âIt's best I leave Mimi, fo
Bree The house was still and quiet, like the air in the atmosphere needed permission to blow. I tucked myself out of bed and dragged my lazy feet along the long hallway. Mother and father weren't in the living room, so I went ahead to their room. I knocked twice and helped myself in before they answered. âMorning mother, morning father,â I said, locating the bed. I sat in between them and I noticed that they only stared at me. My greeting even went unanswered. It was an expected reaction, I barely greeted my parents in the morning and just went about my business. âMorning Bree, did you have a nice sleep?â Father asked, caressing my blonde hair. âI tried,â my hoarse voice reached my ears. I had cried myself to sleep last night, praying in between that Alexander would look at me the way I wanted. I knew that I was spoiled, not by my parents of course but because that was just what I wanted. I believed nobody could talk to me anyhow, I sat heavily on the respect and properties that
