"You want me to come in with you?" I ask Kelly but she shakes her head negatively.
"I'll be fine." She answers with a small smile. I squeeze her hand once and release it. She walks through the door where the nurse waits for her. When the door is shut behind them, I sit on the metallic chairs next to me. About five minutes later, I start pacing around, think about a lot of things and who I have to call. I don't even know how my parents are. I haven't even checked the club and I'm sure Troy is so mad right now. I check the closed doors for a second and decide to go to the parking lot and look for Paul."Hey, Paul. I need another favor to ask for." He raises an eyebrow encouraging me to go on. "I need a new phone and I believe you know where to find one, yes?" I ask as I open my purse to take out my credit card."Yeah. I have a friend who has this business. What type do you need?" I tell him to buy the best android they have and I can work with effectively.Related chapters

Kelly had been given some antibiotics and pain killers before we left the hospital. Paul had bought a new phone for me and I hadn't wasted a second before transferring everything to it. The first people I called were my parents who told me that they were fine and promised to go have our usual Friday dinner together. I had to excuse Aiden with a lie about work.Second, I called Troy and told him I was feeling really sickCalla played it off saying it was his ego talking. I believed her, but I had a different feeling. Right now, I'm lyi

At seven sharp Thursday, I am woken up by a kick against my abdomen. I grunt in pain as I open my eyes and glare at a sleeping Kelly. I see her face hold a pained emotion before a laugh comes out as her eyes flutter open."Good morning sunshine." She says sweetly but my glare intensifies and she lets out a dramatic gasp. "I forgot that you're not a morning person when you have your periods." I don't say anything before she moves back slowly."You know what? Just go back to sleep and I'll make your tea as you like it. Do you need any more painkillers? Chocolate? Anything? No? Okay bye." She gets out of bed and walks faster than I've seen her in the couple of days. As soon as she's out of my sight, I let out a full blown smile seeing a glimpse of my friend. She's not there yet but this is progress and anyone can see how much she's trying.My headache is bearable that I don't need any painkillers to survive and so far I haven't felt any back pain. I lie back

"Why am I here again?" Kelly asks with a sigh as she takes my hand so that she can comfortably jump the muddy floor."Okay, this is not the best venue to conduct business but you know I can't risk this." I explain. We are inside an abandoned building that Sean had suggested we meet when I told him that I have to see him secretly. He doesn't know anything about Aiden's plan. All he knows is that Aiden and I are not together and he's taking it so badly that he can't see anyone. Just as everyone else believes. Well, apart from his family and Kelly.It's been two weeks since Aiden told me those hurtful words. We haven't spoken again but he's acted his part well. A heartbroken playboy who got played by The Alexandra Black. This caused a lot of mixed reactions from my viewers. Most of them were mad but a good number was also pleased and commended me for it. As for me, I had to keep a face but I would pretend to cry sometime when I knew it was convenient and the other sp

"Alex, your photographer says he'll be here in twenty. Be ready." Troy points two fingers at me as he tries to seem serious. I give him a curt nod and turn to the novel I've been reading for the past thirty minutes as I wait for 'Mr. Don't be late'... aka the photographer. I hear Troy give out instructions and tells my assistant to make sure my make-up is in place. I roll my eyes at this. Troy is acting like a kid just because I had to transfer his boyfriend to another club further away. He blames me for that and for his boyfriend keeping a secret from him. A secret he promised to find out about.I see a frustrated Carla come in a few seconds later. "I swear Troy these days..." Carla lets out a frustrated sigh as she puts her fists together and motions a crushing gesture. She starts pacing inside my green room as she breathes in and out trying to calm herself down."You know how he is. He can be a bitch if he really wants to." I say placing the novel on the table i

Aiden's POV Bastards!The more I think about everything the angrier I become. They gave me four fucking weeks to 'torture' Alexandra. They think she's heart broken. I mean, Alexandra has played the part well. She even went on a rampage and caused a scene once again telling the whole world how Aiden Matthew Kings is a bastard and so many things. Her show got even more popular.As for the club, Alexandra is doing the perfect job. She deals with the club and the profits increase daily. I can't deny, when Alexandra means business, she means business. She pours her heart into it and gives it her all. I'm still wondering how she's doing all these at once. How she multitasks everything. Since the supposed break-up, paparazzi are always trying to get to her, Paul talked about Alexandra helping her dad from time to time for an hour or two, the show, the club and now the mafia. I know I would have been overwhelmed with all that. But Alexandra loves it.

ALEXANDRA'S POV AloneScaredHurtThose are the only emotions I can feel. Life should be about taking a step each day but instead I feel like I went back a mile. "I'm sorry Ms. Black, but the bullet damaged your uterus..." He said. I didn't even get to listen to anything else the doctor said ten minutes ago. All I wanted was to have a happy life in future. A good enough husband, two or three children in a beautiful home that my spouse and I designed together. Guess, I watched too much television. I should have just decided to build my life as my family wanted. Be good at something and build a career out of it. Just as Naomi did. But all I did, was lazy around, watching television and building castles in the air as I try so hard to show my parents I was terrible at everything else.I should have known nothing was perfect. Well, I did know but I believed in happy endings. I always thought that living life wasn't easy. Lot's of fuck ups hap

Alexandra's POV For the past two days, Aiden has been a mother hen and ss much as I love it, it has started getting annoying. He has made the news slightly bearable and has tried comforting and assuring me about things getting into place and to be honest, I needed to hear the words repeatedly. "Why are you out of bed?" Aiden asks as soon as he opens the door to his room. I turn to him and flip him the bird with a roll of my eyes before turning back to the window. He sure has a nice view of the place. I can hear his cane tap against the floor as he nears me and soon enough his left arm snakes around my waist bringing me closer to him. He kisses my shoulder before looking out of the window too in silence."I want to leave. When can we leave?" I ask, my whine cutting through the peaceful silence. Aiden kisses my shoulder once again before gesturing for me to turn and face him. I do so."We'll go your apartment and stay there for a while. I have an

The next morning, I woke up thirsty and hungry. I woke up in Aiden's arms as he slept peacefully. I turned to the clock on the bed side table and noticed it was nine a.m."Morning wifey." Aiden rasped. I turned to him with a smile, aware that I was naked. I remember him cleaning me up and getting me into bed."Morning hubby." I say back with a smile as he sleepily looks at me then moves me closer to him for a kiss but I stop him. "I don't remember brushing my teeth yesterday night before sleeping so you can imagine." "A little bad odour from my wife won't guarantee a divorce. Unless it happens everyday." Aiden jokes as I lightly hit his chest. "You did brush your teeth after a lot of convincing and promises." He laughs and he moves closer to me. "And for a record, I don't care. Now give me some love." I chuckle before kissing him for a second. He then wraps his hand around me and moves me so I can straddle him and deeply kisses me. I could get used to thi
