Alex shook his head as he saw the woman he was once in love with and still in love with stagger through the entrance of their house. Even though there was some feud between them, he still loved Elena dearly. But love was a thing that could not be forced, and if Elena decided that she didn't want to have anything with him anymore, he was ready to grant her wish. After all, he was tagged as her mother's murderer.Although he took another man's wife, he didn't consider himself guilty of any offense. Elena's heart wasn't with Lucas then, so he just came in at the right time to fill the space in her heart. For him, it was love at first sight, he was captured by her beauty and her eloquence, and no man in his right frame of mind would want to lose the opportunity of calling her his woman.Apart from being a spoiled brat which was a result of poor upbringing, Elena was outspoken, brave, supportive, intelligent, and beautiful. These are the features Alex saw in her that didn't make him care i
" I'm very sure I'm talking to someone here, did a cat cut your tongue? Why have you suddenly gone dumb, Lucas?", Clara angrily stared at an embarrassed Lucas. He was even ashamed to look at Clara, so he fixed his gaze on the ground." What does it look like we are doing? Why did you choose the wrong time to barge into someone else's office like that, where are your manners, old woman?" Elena angrily yelled at Clara. She was angry that her evil plan had failed. Lucas rushed to strangle her neck within minutes. Elena was trying to set herself free by beating Lucas with all her strength, but Lucas' hold on her was too strong.Clara was confused too because she thought Lucas would set Elena free on his own, but when life was about to be stiff out of Elena, she had no choice but to bite him strongly on his hand." I know you are extremely angry with this bitch, but she isn't worth your time. You almost killed her, Lucas, please learn to control your emotions." Clara warned.Lucas stared
Elena carried her dejected self into the house. She needed to preserve what was left of her dignity. She moved into her room and started packing her things. She didn't forget to pick up their wedding picture, at least that would be used to remember her relationship with Alex.She looked around the house as she wheeled her luggage down the staircase. " I will miss this place a lot, Alex has been nothing but a good husband to me, but I think I have pushed him beyond limits. There is nothing left for me here anyways, I need to get moving" she muttered to herself. She almost felt guilty for her actions, but she shook it off her mind.When she got outside, she waved to one of Alex's men to come closer to her." I am leaving as instructed by your boss. I still have some of my things inside my room, so I will come later in the evening to pack them up. Please inform Alex of my departure, it's nice meeting you all", she said, and then she went outside the compound.Alex watched her as she lef
Lilly's room was scattered with different colors and designs of dresses, she was confused about the one to pick. Today was her first date with her beloved, as the previous one he promised her after she was discharged from the hospital was canceled. She ought to have been offended and kept malice with him for several days, but his reason for canceling the date was genuine, so she had to keep calm and wait for him to pick another date. She would have picked a date herself, but she didn't want to sound desperate or tamper with her self-esteem. She wanted Lucas to treat her like a queen and be in charge as a man, not the other way around.Lucas was on his way to pick up Lilly some days after she was discharged when his phone rang. He checked his phone and Bobby's name was shown on the screen. He was met with a terrified voice as he picked up his call." Lucas please, I want you to drop everything you are doing presently, then come to my house. It's an urgent plea please" Bobby said over
Lilly's slap Elena was so strong that she fell on the floor. Half of her dress was drawn up and her inner wears were on display for the chef and waiter." How dare you come after my man after you have already sucked Alex dry, you this unrepentant greedy woman. You wanted money and fame and you went after Alex, now you want Lucas because he is more famous than your husband, you lied." Lilly roared in anger as she used her nails to scatter Elena's face and hair.Lucas and the chef were watching the women's catfight until they saw blood oozing out of Elena's face; they had to come in to separate them, because the traces of Lilly's nail were on Elena's face.Lucas moved to carry Lilly but she turned around and bit his fingers." That's for stopping me from destroying this bitch's face. Why did you stop me, are you trying to protect your ex-wife against me?" She flared up.Lucas was dumbfounded as he heard the allegation laid against him by Lilly." What are you saying, Lilly? I'm just try
Lucas was deep asleep when he heard the jingling of keys at his door. It seemed someone was trying to open the door to his apartment, but the person was not using force. The only person he gave the spare key to his house was Lilly, and he wasn't expecting her anytime from now because of the misunderstanding they had earlier in the day.He stood up quickly to be alert for whatever or whoever was coming to attack him in his house, but he was surprised by who he saw when the door opened.Lilly stood before him in a sexy knee-length red dress with a black heel shoe. Her hair was well arranged and was shining. She held a medium-sized bag packed with clothes which showed she wasn't planning on leaving immediately.Lucas was dumbfounded at the sight, that he was just drooling at the angel before him. He checked her out from head to toe. He loved what he saw, but he couldn't smile because he didn't know if his smile would trigger her anger.Lilly also followed his reactions and she was proud
" Can you see what greediness and lack of patience led you into? I'm highly disappointed in you for not learning your lessons yet. You should have deviated from the path your mother left for you since it would eventually lead to destruction, see your life now" Alex said as he sighted Elena from afar.He had visited her house to ask her a series of questions concerning the magic he felt in her body before he sent her out of his house. He had summoned Marie and other coven members to know the source of the magical attack, and the response given to him was vague. He was given a clue but he was allowed to figure out the problem on his own." You are a great wizard, Alex. You haven't harnessed any of your power yet, and I want you to take this Elena issue as your first task. Be brave just like Lucas, then you can conquer" Marie Advised.He came to ask some questions from the horse's mouth since she was the victim. His soon-to-be ex chose the path of destruction, but he couldn't deny the fa
" Where is he? Where is that wicked man without a heart who calls himself my father? I want to see him now" Alex roared as he entered Lucifer's compound. His eyes were bloodshot and it took everything in him to control his anger, if not he would have destroyed the whole place with fire. He didn't want to look like a prodigal son, that was why he kept calm. Moreover, he had been warned that his lineage was pure and none of his predecessors had practiced evil, so he should not be involved in any evil henceforth. He was only allowed to fight back if conditions warranted such." And who is that loose dog that keeps barking in my compound? '' Lucifer answered with the same velocity." You should hide your head in shame and not be seen in the outside world because of your despicable character. You call yourself my father, and you dare to sleep with my wife?" Everybody present gasped when they heard what Alex said. They were not the men sent by Lucifer to throw Elena out of the club, so they
