Untold Desire
Who is he?
My eyes continued to watch the unexplored steps. It was getting closer and closer. I'm sure my breath started to catch. I couldn't see the man's face at all, making me regret turning off all the lights in this room.I tried to digest the situation here. Slowly but surely, my hand moves to grab my cell phone and blame it on the flashlight. I quickly shone the light from my cell phone towards the man. To no one's surprise, he immediately raises his hand to cover his face, disturbed by the glare of the light."Turn it off!" he exclaimed unhappily as the lights came on in this room, he was the one who pressed the light switch.Axe!My eyes immediately rounded to see the face I had been worried about. "Where have you been, Axe?" I asked, not caring about his glare. There was a little relief in my heart at his condition. I was glad that Axe was okay."None of your business!" he snapped as he strode towards the bathroom."Your health condition is myRelated chapters

I was a little flabbergasted to see him holding a medium-sized kitchen knife. Don't tell me Axe is going to prove what he said in the bathroom. I really couldn't believe it."Don't do this!" My steps definitely took a step back as I realized the distance between us was getting thinner."Go away!" I screeched almost like a madman. My chest rose and fell feeling tight at the unforgiving glint in his eyes. Is it true that the one in front of me right now is Axe? I shook my head in answer to myself. Of course, there was only one human like him on this earth.Degh!The sound of a stifled voice made my heart instantly hammer. Woefully, there was no more room for me to move. I was locked in with my body restrained by the pantry. "Stop right there!" I exclaimed, trying to grab whatever was still left there, perhaps the chefs had left some leftover ingredients that I could use to throw at Axe's face."Stop, Axe!" I couldn't stop crying when I turned around and found nothi

"Aunty."A small call followed by a gentle peck on the cheek vaguely made me open my eyes. I smiled to find Oracle sitting sweetly in front of me."Good morning, Aunty," he greeted successfully, causing a warm feeling in my chest. It felt good to wake up next to Oracle like this."Good morning, Oracle," I replied, pinching his cheek lightly."Where's Daddy, aunty? I don't see him."My heart was suddenly blurry at the sound of that name, the name that had kept me awake most of the night. My breath hitched roughly and I looked deeply into Oracle's innocent face."Daddy sleeps with Om Edward in the other room," I replied simply. I didn't even know where Axe was right now. My gut feeling told me he was in the other room though it was unlikely."Daddy's busy, huh, Aunty?""Yes, dear. While waiting for daddy, we should get ready to meet mommy. Oracle already misses mommy Rose, don't you?" I deliberately changed the subject. I didn't want to feel like discus
Brother Luck(not) Coming for Love
From the afternoon, until now it's late at night. My phone kept vibrating and displaying several message notifications that I kept ignoring. I have no intention of picking up the call or reading the message. I left my phone on the nightstand, not even glancing at it. I could already guess that the culprit was none other than Axe. Who else would have my new number besides him and Edward. That's right. Axe did give me a cell phone, but with a note that I had to use the sim card he gave me. So the few old contacts I had couldn't be saved. Let alone other people, I didn't even have my mom and dad's numbers. That's why I didn't contact them, even though my only wish when I first came under Axe's custody was to contact them.Axe shouldn't have needed to contact me anyway because he obviously knew where I was given the tracking device on my body. Remember what Edward once told me?My breathing ended in relief when there was no more vibrating coming from my phone. It wasn't that som

"Bridgette!"My eyes blinked faintly at the knock on the bedroom door. What time is it already? The question managed to make my own body move quickly, until now I was sitting with my chest rising and falling irregularly.Last night I fell asleep so easily against my will. I mean, last night I intended to confirm Axe's whereabouts after 10 minutes of turning off all the lights so that he would think I really didn't care about him. I had intended for him to go back to the hotel and rest at his place. Unfortunately, I fell asleep before the first two minutes after lying down on the bed. Now at the risk, my heart would have to pound to question his whereabouts.My feet quickly stepped towards the window. I pulled the curtains until the morning glare made me dodge a little. Looks like I overslept.I searched for Axe and found him still standing there. Is what I saw true? I pinched my arm for a moment and what was in front of me didn't change. Axe was indeed standing there
Brother Luck(not) Blackout
Six days I've been at Rose's apartment. Those six days I also let Axe stand in the garden waiting for me to apologize. I don't know, time seems to have flown by, even though it feels like it was only yesterday that we had the fight.'I'll wait for you in this place until you forgive me.'I can still hear that confident sentence. But I salute Axe, he put his words into action. Six days and five nights living out there just for me, it was an unbelievable struggle. I knew Axe was tired underneath it all. It was noted that on the first to second day he was still able to stand and on the third day until today, his position had changed. Axe was no longer towering, but sitting with his head slightly bowed, and once in a while I found him lying down tired. Sometimes I also saw him massaging the bridge of his nose and squeezing his head roughly. My chest was aching, I couldn't bear to see him continue like that.I quickly moved to the door connecting the balcony. I push the

"Are you sure he's your brother?"Rose's question managed to cause a strange throbbing in my chest. If that was the truth, I hoped the answer was yes, Axe wasn't my brother. However, reality isn't that good. Who is Axe if not my brother? Someone else, is that it? Did Rose take the wrong medication to think that? There are things. "Don't be silly, Rose. We haven't lived apart since I was a kid, not even when I was one year old. Axe had to live with uncle Danial because of an agreement. Didn't I tell you that?""I did, but it feels strange." Rose scratched her head, which I'm sure wasn't itchy. Oh. She must be thinking about how my relationship with Axe could be this complicated. I don't understand either. It's still a mystery, if I'm being honest no one knows the reason behind the black and white agreement other than mom, dad, and Uncle Danial. They really kept it a secret from us. Surprisingly, Axe didn't question or even engage me in a discussion about our complicated

It's been an hour since Axe's eyes opened briefly, until now he's still faithful to his subconscious world. As always, Axe likes to keep me waiting. It's been three times since we've experienced something like this. Our relationship was never easy, always complicated.I let out a tired breath. I shift my gaze to the nightstand for a moment. My black flat object now caught my attention. Instantly a name popped into my head. Edward! Yes, Edward. I'll call him and ask him to bring Axe a change of clothes. Poor Axe, until now he's still wearing the same clothes we last spoke in the courtyard downstairs. It's also his fault for being so stubborn, I asked him to go back to the hotel and he kept waiting for me to end up sick like this. But the truth is that we were both at fault, if I could have forgiven him sooner. Maybe Axe would still be okay.Never mind. Everything has happened. The most important thing now is for me to take care of him so he can get better soon.I let
Brother Luck(not) Throw Up
Axe quickly pulled his hand back and gave me an unaccepting look. "You want revenge on me for almost cutting off your fingers that time?" he asked pretending to be angry.I quickly shook my head and pulled my lips together to curl into a smile. "I know what you want, Axe. You're sick, don't mess with me. I won't let you touch me."I started to lower my body from his lap. Axe was sick, he couldn't hold the weight of my body on his thighs for too long. My job wasn't done yet either, I hadn't cleaned his body even though I had wet wipes ready."What do you want?Axe gasped at the movement of my hand that pulled his hand quickly. I didn't answer him because what I did next was to trace along his arm with the wet tissue.Just imagine, six days he'd been downstairs waiting for me, six days he hadn't touched water to wash his hands."How can you stand not showering," I muttered half-mockingly. I continued to wash Axe's body until it ended at the crook of his neck. I
