MARRIED TO ALEXANDER PIERCE CHAPTER 63: FIGURING OUT THE TRUTH
BreeI tried my best to remain calm, my phone was in my ear as I talked in hushed voices. Sometimes the call went through, sometimes it went straight to voicemail. And when it finally went through, I was beyond pissed and happy. It was a mixed feeling.I found my way back to where everyone was.Felix, Lady Selene and Sir Carlos held each of the kids. Melissa's eyes were swollen and red, she had devoted most of her time to crying and staying quiet. After the slap she had given me, I truly realized she wasn't an easy woman. She would do whatever she wanted at that point; and how she was feeling, I had no idea. It was definitely going to be greater than mine.My ringing tone captured my thoughts back to the present. The caller ID surprised me, while I stayed by myself, I placed 2 by 2 together. It was all making sense.Francis wasn't making sense the night before, he sounded pissed and irritated. And all of a sudden, he came to me in the morning, trying to make me believe he was still on
MARRIED TO ALEXANDER PIERCE CHAPTER 64: THE VISIT
MelissaIt's been a week since Alexander's accident. The doctor informed us that he slipped into a coma and there was no time frame for when he might come out. Good news travels so slowly but bad news goes faster; the whole town of Carlton had come to know that I was the legitimate child of the Thatchers and also the legal wife of Alexander Pierce. Making my kids the children of royalty and also the children of a billionaire.Unnecessary respect was starting to be accorded to us and it was really pissing me off. I spent the first few days in the hospital beside him, telling him about the happy memories we were starting to make. How he loved me and how much he promised to never leave me and the kids again.The doctors warned us never to cry or be sad in his presence, everyone always came with happy faces and played and joked around with him. But deep down we carry a burden as heavy as a rock.“Take some time off Melissa,” Janet dragged me out of my reverie. “I'm sure the director would
MARRIED TO ALEXANDER PIERCE CHAPTER 65: ALEXANDER
AlexanderI tried reaching out, I tried speaking but nothing was happening. I heard doors opening and closing but none of them could hear me no matter how much I screamed in my head.‘Hello, hello,’ I kept saying in my head but nothing proved abortive.Just when I thought it was all over, a woman stepped in with a bunch of other people. They dropped whatever they held and hummed a beautiful song for me. It was soothing, I wanted to just stand up and appreciate them for their thoughtful gift.But wait, I had no idea what happened to me. Who was I? Why was I in bed? With all the beeping around me, I tried to remember where I was. I summoned all my strength to at least do something. Someone should be able to see me. I raised my right index finger, hoping to get attention.“Doctor Henry, it's Alexander,” I heard a woman shout. Does she know me? Who was she? Why was she here?Immediately I heard her shout, I was filled with joy knowing that what I aimed to achieve was achieved.The doors o
MARRIED TO ALEXANDER PIERCE CHAPTER 1: A BIG MISTAKE
MelissaThe day had barely begun and I could feel my entire body succumb to its tiredness. My eyes felt like they had suddenly become lead and my legs wobbled badly, I desperately needed a good rest.Just like every other night, I had spent the entire last night in the school library again, trying to catch up with the term's work, forgetting that I worked a morning shift at the local eatery."Melissa, we have an order at table 10 and table 23," the voice of the manager dragged me out of my reverie."I'm on it," my voice scratched, failing to go higher than it was. I stretched my limbs and they felt like they had weighed more pounds overnight. I grabbed the tray housing the cups of coffee and walked into the main restaurant."Here you go," my smile came so faintly that you could barely notice it. I dropped the first order at table 10 and walked towards the next table. As I neared table 23, a customer in a hurry bumped into me from behind, causing me to spill the coffee on the very fine
MARRIED TO ALEXANDER PIERCE CHAPTER 2: A SHOW OF POWER
AlexanderImmediately we arrived at the office, I turned towards the receptionist. "Get me Damien, have him come to my office immediately.""Yes sir," she stood up and scurried away to Damien's office.Felix held my bags and walked into my office.He bowed. "Sir Alex, I would like to apologize on behalf of the lady's behavior. If I had stopped her in time, things wouldn't have happened the way it happened.""You don't have to worry Felix, I'll make sure she's punished. You can leave now."He faced the door in time, about to go out."What was her name again? I didn't quite catch it.""Melissa," Felix replied."You can leave," I dismissed him again and repeated the name to myself, smiling. "Melissa. Such a feisty one, I promise to clip those wings of yours."My mind traveled back to what happened in the restaurant, truth be told, she wasn't at fault. I saw it all but the words had left my mouth before I could refrain from saying them.Her response made me repeat the same word. I wanted
MARRIED TO ALEXANDER PIERCE CHAPTER 3: MARRIED TO ALEXANDER PIERCE
Melissa"Never, I'll never marry him. I'd rather die than find myself spending forever with someone like him," I cried for the 100th time. My father wasn't listening to me, he came home that night announcing my marriage to the last person I ever thought of.I had dreamed of fantasy, happily ever after. Irrespective of how old I was, I still had the stature of a 20 year old kid. I always believed that one day my prince charming would come and sweep me off my feet.I couldn't believe I was keeping myself for him, I was going to be married to the bastard I had hassled with in the morning."Father please," I lowered myself on my knees, begging him, because I knew my life depended on it. "Don't do this, my whole life will be halted. I'm in my final year in school, let me finish in grand style, please.""Unfortunately Melissa, there's nothing I can do for you. Your fate has been sealed. Tomorrow you get married to the billionaire, Alexander Pierce," he said deadpan and walked out of the roo
MARRIED TO ALEXANDER PIERCE CHAPTER 4: DOOM
MelissaIt's been 6 months in Alexander's home and to me it felt like years. The emotional and mental torture was one I couldn't deal with. Most of the days, I spend them in the room all alone without talking to anyone.My muse had drifted away from me so bad. I was an artist, I loved painting, I love drawing but lately I couldn't find the courage to pick them up again. I had become my own shadow, lost without a direction, without a place to call home.Alexander slept on the other side of the bed, snoring away peacefully. The whole room was illuminated yet I glanced into the darkness right in front of me, praying that I would find a way soon to color myself in it. My right hand unconsciously caressed my tummy.In a span of 6 months, Alexander had me remove my babies, twice. He claimed he wasn't ready for kids now as they would deter him from his goal.I was pregnant again but I couldn't let him know otherwise it would meet the same fate as others."Why are you rubbing your tummy?" His
MARRIED TO ALEXANDER PIERCE CHAPTER 5: NIGHTMARES
Alexander`Alex, close your eyes. Don't look at me, don't look at mama. Papa is just angry, I was the one that wronged him.`I jumped up from my sleep, covered in my own sweat, breathing heavily. Deep black bags sought refuge under my eyes, the beautiful shiny gaze my eyes held had become lifeless, like I was staring into oblivion. For months, they had always been that way. I looked up at the wall clock, it was just 3am in the morning. Frustrated, I pushed the covers away from my body and sat upright.It's been 7 years since Melissa left and 7 years since the nightmares came again.Few months after she left, her smell on the sheets helped keep the nightmares away. I always imagined she was right there beside me and it always worked but as soon as the sheets were changed, everything came back to the way it used to be.I walked downstairs to grab a cup of water in the kitchen, I noticed the light was turned on and I wondered who would be awake at that time of the night. I saw Felix sit
