“I missed you so much, dad,” tear rolls down my eyes.
“What are you doing here?” he asks again and this time he sounds angry.
“I wanted to meet you all,” I say and try to walk toward him.
“Stay there where you are standing,” he says, raising his hands and my step stops.
“Dad. What happened?” I ask shocked by his behavior.
“I am saying what you deserve. Don’t call me dad. Didn’t you leave with your mate, right? Then why you come back?” He asked with venom.
“Dad, I missed you all. You are my family,” I say with tears.
“Nobody is your family here. At least I am not your family. I regret giving birth to you.” he says and I feel the floor move from my feet.
“Dad, what have I done wrong?” I ask disappointed by his word.
I had sacrificed my happiness for him. But now he is telling me he regrets giving birth to
After talking with Ariel, I went to my mom.I wanted to talk to her.And Logan doesn’t want to see my face, so I don’t want to go there and disturb him.When I went to my mom’s room, she was sleeping.So I close her door and went outside.I will talk to her later.Though she is behaving well, I know she is suffering like me.She had become lean from the last time I saw her.Her hair lost its color, and her face was showing wrinkles.These incidents have made her lose the will of living, I know.But, I can’t lose her.I come downstairs and went toward the backyard.This is the place where I used to play when I was a child.I used to make my small house there and play with my dolls.Mom, me, and my dolls. My tiny and beautiful world.But then reality hits and I grew up.My beautiful world is attacked by some monster, and my prince charming comes out as the
“You didn’t know then, he was your mate, right?” He asks, and I shake my head.“No, I was only sixteen then. I wanted to kill my time as I was feeling lonely, and wanted to save some money for the future, too. So when Marina offered me the job I grab it.”“Then?” He asks curiously.“Then...”After I joined Logan’s office, my days were going well.I wanted something to pass my time, and what could be better than that.The job was not very troublesome.Logan had a busy schedule, but I had to just arrange everything, attend emails, and mostly attend some meetings with him.Logan didn’t want to depend on someone, so my workload was not very heavy.And about my studies, Marina was helping me a lot.She used to pass me the class notes and help me with my studies.All the weekdays when I was remaining busy with my office work, on the weekend I used to c
After dinner, everyone leaves for their respective room.But when I enter my room, it was pitch dark.Logan came early from the dinner. I thought he would be back here.Then why is not any light on? Maybe he went outside.Thinking this, I enter the room, but suddenly all the lights turn on, and I hide my face with my hand.When I open my eyes, Logan was sitting on the couch.His legs are kept on the coffee table in a crossing manner, and he is smoking. I didn’t know he had a habit of smoking.But I never get to know what are his habits.He crushes the cigarette in the ashtray and looks at me.I try to see through his mood. But his face has no emotion from which I can get a single clue.“Where were you?” he asks calmly still sitting in the same position.“I was at the dining table just now. You saw me there eating.” I say, confused why he is asking that.“Before tha
Logan’s P.O.V.I get up from the bed, where Andrea was lying unconscious.I pull the sheet over her and get up.I know they were just hugging, but I couldn’t control myself.The anger that is building inside me is destroying us bit by bit.This always happens.I never want to hurt her. But I end up hurting her all the time.When my anger subsides, I regret every night when I see what have I done. But then I again do the same.But what can I do?I didn’t want to be like that. I don’t want to hate her.But what she did was too much for me to handle.I can forgive her every mistake.But what she has done to me is unforgivable.I know she must hate me now after what I have done these three years.But I will never let her go away from me.I still remember the day I first saw her.When she entered my office for the job interview.Marina told me before, that sh
“Andrea. Are you still in the bathroom? We are waiting for you.” I hear Ariel’s voice and came out of my dreamland.“I will be there in five minutes,” I yell from inside and step out of the bathtub.“Come quickly. You can always come back here. I know you like to make your home inside the bathroom, but that is not your home sweet home. Your mate may be waiting for you outside.” He says in a joking tone and leaves my room.I quickly finish my shower and change into a dress.When I stand in front of the mirror, I can see my entire neck is filled with purple bruises.I don’t want to be embarrassed in front of everyone, so I apply some foundation to cover them.Then I go downstairs.“Mom, you know I like it too. Give me some.” I hear Ariel urging like a child.“Don’t you dare to touch it? It’s for Andrea.” Mom slaps his hand away.“This i
Andrea’s P.O.V.I was anxiously pacing the room when Logan enters.I quickly go to him and try to ask what they talked about. But I hesitate.Then I think I will have to ask. After all, I know dad must have said something that is a lie.What can I expect from him other than that? He has clearly said before how he despises me.But I want to know how much destructing this lie is. So I muster up my courage.“L... Logan.” I call him nervously.He was removing his jacket may prepare to have a shower.“What?” He snaps at me.“What you two talked about?” I ask though I know what is waiting for me.“Do you think I will tell you?” He sneers and asks, sitting on the bed.I was feeling afraid, nervous, and anxious all along.“I... I just want to know...” I try to say, but then I feel that any of my explanations will not make him happy. Tear well up in
After office when I went out,Logan was standing beside her black Maybach.He was leaning on the car and doing something on his tablet.He had left his suit jacket, and he is only wearing his shirt and matching pants.He has rolled his sleeve and also left his upper two buttons open.His upper chest wasvisible, and he waslooking so hot.“Shall we go?” He asked when I walk in front of him,and I nodded in yes.He opened the door for me, and I sat in front of the passenger seat.After that, he close the door and went to sit in the driver’s seat.But when I thought he will start driving he lean toward me.Why he was leaning toward me? Will he kiss me?I wanted to stop him, but before I could say anything he ties my seat belt. I look away shyly and I am sure; I was blushing.Thank god, there was no light In the car.I didn’t want to be embarrass
The next day I got mom’s gift.It was a bracelet. But I remembered that was the bracelet of my grandma, my mom’s mother.Mom always used to wear this.She often told me this bracelet contained her mother’s love and blessing.I liked it so much back then, but mom used to say that it will be given to me when she will die.I used to be angry hearing her words, and I used to say that she will give it to me while she is alive.But today when I get this I feel like crying.I liked it because it has my mom’s touch.But when I got this, my mom is not with me. I felt like crying.I didn’t know how would I spend this year.My bathroom door open with a thud making me come out of my daze.“Andrea.” I hear mom’s voice.I remember where I was sitting.I was sitting in the shower, and the cold water is still flowing.I was so lost in my pas
