"Evelyn," He said again but she placed her hand on his mouth shutting him up."Master, let me talk or my mind would explode," She said in a slurry tone. Her body swayed left as he wrapped his arms around her waist and let her speak."I...I've never dated anyone and w...when you approached me. I...I was excited. I wanted to give our chemistry a chance and a...also you appeared like Knight in a shining armor when those thugs were after me. Y...you saved me, Axel. You were my angel," She whispered, moving her hand from his mouth and caressing his cheek, her thumb stroking his eyebrow.His heart was pounding wildly as he stared into her beautiful brown hues that were glossy."A...and then one day my brother was missing. Scary thugs abducted me and dropped me at your feet. Then it came to my knowledge that my Knight in shining armor was hell-bent on killing my brother for an unknown reason and just to hurt Josh more, you wanted to marry me," Suddenly her voice became louder as she gripped
She tried to move but it was as if something heavy was keeping her in place. She blinked her eyes open only to wince in pain as the vein in her head throbbed. Something was close to her face. She blinked twice to get rid of her blurry vision and her eyes widened as she abruptly inched back. Her face looked comical with a double chin as she gaped at a broad sturdy chest dusted with trimmed manly hair. Her eyes shot up and she stiffened. Axel was sleeping peacefully. Her eyes snapped around and she realized she was in his room. How did she get here? And just like that she recalled the pool, Rory, and the slap followed by Axel beating him, and then she stole his drink and got drunk in her room. She vaguely recalled Axel coming into her room and treating her wounds but after that everything was a blur. Her head was pounding so badly that even moving a little caused waves of pain. Biting her lower lip she stared at his steel-like arm wrapped around her waist. No wonder she couldn't move
Her heart fell into the deep hollow of worry and anxiousness as she shook her head wildly and glared at him. "You're lying," She breathed and he pouted.This had to be a dream. This couldn't be real. This man wasn't behaving like the Axel she knew."Why would I lie?" He asked calmly and sat on the edge of the bed with his back to her as he raked his fingers through his hair.Her throat clogged up seeing his bare demon back with all those muscles flexing. Tossing the sheets away she got out of bed only to wince in pain. One that her wounded feet were bearing her weight and second her head was smarting in pain.She tottered and came to a halt in front of him. There was no pain between her legs. Which meant he was lying."You're lying," she tried to growl at him but her voice came out shaky.His smoldering gaze fell on her bandaged clad tiny feet before gliding over her creamy legs. The blood started to rush down his groin as he gazed at her creamy thighs. He wanted those thighs on his f
Evelyn's heart did a wild pitter patter in her chest and her cheeks tinted red. His words weren't supposed to affect her the way they were affecting her.This was all an act of his. After everything he did to her, he wouldn't just flip over a night just because he held her in his arms while sleeping.She glanced at him ready to retort back but a squeal escaped past her lips as she abruptly covered her eyes and faced away."Don't change right in front of me!" She screeched only for her heart to stumble when she heard his deep throaty chuckle that sent tingles down her body.She gulped and kept her eyes covered, waiting for him to get changed. A soundless gasp left her lips when his fingers perched around her chin and her face was inclined up."Open your eyes," He groaned."Are you wearing your clothes?" She asked and he smirked."I am," He husked.She moved her hands away and opened her eyes only to gape at him.He was standing to his full height right beside her, half of his upper bod
Axel was leaning against the hood of his car as he gazed at the wide inky sky that was twinkling with sparkling stars.His eyes fixed on the sky as he drawled a puff of smoke out. "This feels amazing," Daniel muttered standing beside him."Of course, it always feels amazing after a good run," Axel said as slowly the orange hue started to appear as they watched standing on the hill."Did anyone find their mate?" Axel asked and Daniel shook his head."Nope and I think many of us don't believe in mates anymore because the last time someone found their true mate was five years ago. Now this lack of a true mate was only leading to the option of chosen mate," Daniel said Axel dragged a puff from his cigarette and then exhaled the smoke out in the chilly air."What will happen to Evelyn?" Daniel asked and Axel tensed up slightly before he sighed and rubbed his face."I don't know," He murmured.Daniel frowned. "What do you mean you don't know?" He asked. "You do realize she has no hand in wha
A few days passed and Axel's behavior was making her all confused and scared. She almost feels like it was unreal. The pessimistic side of her was roaring bad outcomes in her head.She was scared of his kindness towards her. It was almost like a Deja Vu. He was kind to her before but ended up putting her brother behind the bars and making her life a living hell and he was doing the same thing again. Being kind to her. It was heart-rattling because she couldn't understand what was going through his head.Evelyn tried to avoid him as much as she could but last night he barged into her room and confronted her as to why she was avoiding him."I'm just minding my business, leave alone," she had said getting up from the window sofa. Her wounds had healed and she could walk properly now. "Why didn't you come down to have dinner with me? Didn't Ela tell you I'm asking for your presence?" He asked. "I already had my dinner," she whispered heading to the restroom just to avoid him but he grab
Evelyn paced her room back and forth, and gazillions of thoughts raked her head. She was scared, she was petrified knowing what Axel was capable of. If by any chance she got caught then that was it for her. There would be no way out. He would not only kill her but Joshua as well.It was too risky. Either she could win or simply fail but the cost of failure maybe would land her in a deep pit. If it was just about her life, she would've taken the risk but she can't play with Joshua's life then again he wasn't living a free or happy life in jail. He was beaten and hurt every day and there was no guarantee that Axel would let them both live for long. No matter what, she couldn't bring herself to trust Axel and do nothing.Parco on the hand seemed so kind and considerate to her. He was always worried about her in this cage. He even took care if she was having her meals or not. He was a kind man from what she could understand and he was in the same position as her but Parco was seeking reve
Evelyn woke up early as she stirred on the bed, yawned, and groggily straightened up. Her eyes fell on the giant of a man laying on a small couch. Half of his legs were dangling down from the other end, she could bet his body would be in pain as soon as he would wake up because of the position he was in.Parco's words rang in her head and fear coiled in her heart. She quietly got out of bed as she was about to walk past his sleeping form, she came to halt beside him.Maybe this was the last time she would see him. There was no scowl on his face and he looked peaceful while sleeping, almost like a baby.She hoped she won't get to meet him again after all the pain he has caused her.Swallowing thickly she quietly tiptoed out of his room. Once she was inside her room, she hurriedly showered and changed her clothes. Grabbing her phone and the paper, she was about to leave but stopped. What if Axel had her number or what if he tracks her down?Shaking her head she switched off her phone an
