Shattered Illusions

Chapter 10 - My angel's smile

Alex's POV:

I know I said that no matter what, I won't be with Allysa sexually or romantically. But I can't help myself. She is a fucking angel sitting there innocently and still messing with my head. That boy she was flirting with, I swear I could have killed him with my bare hands right there, once I saw him touching her. All I could see was red. She is mine and no one dares to lay their eyes on my angel.

I sighed sitting on my desk as my thoughts trailed towards her yet again. I have been stuck in my office all day and I can't help but just wonder when I would be able to go back to her side again. I texted her an hour ago to check what she was doing. But she didn't text back. She was so exhausted yesterday, so she must be sleeping right now. I smirked as I know I was the reason for her exhaustion.

Amelia came in my office to let me know everything is ready for the next meeting so I should head out now. When I entered the conference room, Evan was already sitting there at the long desk on the opposite end. I nodded my head at him in greeting and took my place. He began going through all the proposals and stuff and I kept nodding, half-listening as my thoughts were still stuck on my angel. How beautiful she looked lying naked under me, trying to get me to fuck her. My cock twitched at the memories of our last night. Evan snapped his fingers in front of me as I seemed to cease to even half-listen as well. I am sure I looked a little flustered by now. Fuck it. He gave me a smug smile. "Trouble in paradise?" I smiled and shook my head. "Too good's my paradise right now." He laughed and shook my hand, taking his leave. Amelia slightly shook her head in amusement as I grinned in response.

I rushed home quickly to go check on my princess. But I was interrupted by Zane and Marcus as usual. "Hello brother, what's the hurry? Why don't you come and spend some time with us? It's been a long time." I glared at him. "When the hell do we spend time together, moron? Plus, you see me every day." Zane started laughing. "Oh, come on, if he is insisting so much, why don't you give some time to your brother? I'll keep company to Isa." He winked at Marcus, as if he has said some much profound shit. Bastard. I gave him a death glare. "Shut up Zane before I decide you are useless and kill you." Marcus and Zane started laughing hard at my threats and made stupid jokes. "God man, you are so whipped." "She has you wrapped around her pinky finger." I just ignored them. I am not whipped. I am just more worried about her than these two idiots as she needs me more. No one can ever have me wrapped around them or whatever. "Just get the hell out of my way." They finally complied. "Sure, your majesty." They said as they fake bowed in front of me. I scowled and proceeded to my room. They snickered behind my back. God when would these idiots grow up?

Last night, after our-well fucking-I tucked her back in the front seat. She was already blushing hard, so I teased her for a while as she kept asking me to shut up. She looks cute when she is angry. After a while, she fell asleep, so instead of using her wheelchair, I carried her bridal style in my arms to my room. There was no way I was letting her sleep in her own room after what happened yesterday. I am still not sure she isn't self-harming herself. I'll talk to her today about changing rooms and stay with me; she'll sleep better with me anyways. I'll just say that I like her by my side only, so she better stays with me in my room. It is the truth anyways. And if she doesn't agree, I'll tie her to my bed and keep her there. Simple.

I opened the door to see her sitting up on the bed, her knees pressed against her chest. I suppose she was crying a while ago, as there were still some unshed tears in her eyes. She was scared. I rushed to her side and kept my hand on her shoulder. She flinched. Did I hurt her yesterday? Is that why she's scared of me? I removed my hand. "Allysa, what happened? Why are you crying? Are you in pain? Should I call the doctor? I'm so sorry if I hurt you yesterday. I swear I was being very careful, but I guess if I still did somehow, please forgive me." She was still quiet and said nothing. She was staring at the space ahead blankly and shaking. There was fear in her eyes. I felt so fucking guilty. "I'm so sorry, Isa. Please at least talk to me princess." Still nothing. I turned around to call Marcus. Maybe she'll talk to him.
