Nova's point of view

The moment the door of my car slammed shut, my body broke. A sob ripped out of me so violently my chest folded inward and I hit the steering wheel repeatedly.

"Stupid." My voice cracked. "You are so stupid Nova."

Tears blurred everything…God…what was I thinking? What exactly had I expected? That I would walk into Kael's office, demand Elsa's release, and he'd suddenly discover a conscience?

A broken laugh escaped me and I pressed my forehead against the steering wheel. My

  • The Wife They Tried To Bury    Betrayed by the people I love most

    Reed's point of view I couldn't breathe, sweat gathered beneath my collar despite the cold air conditioning. My fingers trembled. This couldn't be happening. If this weren't Father's final wish…I would've walked away already, I would've burned every bridge if I had to. But this...How was I supposed to deny a dying man? How was I supposed to live with myself if he closed his eyes forever because I refused him one last request? And how was I supposed to stand before Nova...after marrying someone else? How could I ever explain this? What words existed for something like this"I..." My voice sounded foreign. "I need the restroom." Everyone looked at me. "I should wash my face." I forced something close to a smile. "If I'm getting married....I should at least look presentable in the photographs."Dad nodded immediately. "Go."I walked out, two security guards followed several steps behind. I didn't even acknowledge them. The restroom door clicked shut behind me and I leaned my back agains

  • The Wife They Tried To Bury    Ambushed to my own wedding

    Reed's point of view "What is going on?" My voice came out rough and broken. I stared at my father, searching his face for something that made sense. His fingers tightened around mine with surprising strength."Son..." His voice trembled. "Do this for your old man." His grip tightened another fraction. "I don't have much time." His eyes glistened. "I want to see you married." His breathing hitched. "Please, don't disappoint me."My throat burned and I crouched beside his bed until we were eye level. "Dad..." The word felt heavier than it ever had. "You know I'll do anything for you…but how am I supposed to marry another woman..." My voice cracked. "...when I'm already in love with someone else?"For a brief second...His brows lifted and his lips parted. Before he could respond…"No." My mom's voice cut through the room."Don't listen to him Alex, " She stepped beside dad’s bed with the confidence of someone delivering a business report instead of discussing her son's life. "Nova is no

  • The Wife They Tried To Bury    Emergency call!

    Reed's point of view I answered on the second ring. "Reed!" Her voice cracked and every muscle in my body locked instantly."Where are you?" she cried. "You need to come home. Right now."I sat upright. "What happened?" My own voice barely sounded like mine. There was a shaky breath on the other end, then…"Your father..." My heart stopped. "He suffered a cardiac arrest this afternoon."The words echoed inside my skull. "...What?""The doctors..." she continued between sobs, "...the doctors don't think he has more than twenty four hours."My grip tightened around the phone. "He has called an emergency family meeting. I've already arranged everything." Her words came fast, almost desperate. "I contacted your pilot, the jet is waiting for you. All you have to do is drive to the airport."I shook my head repeatedly, this didn't make sense. "I spoke to him this morning." My voice cracked. "He sounded fine. I even spoke to Dr. Harris yesterday, he said Dad was improving. So where the hell

  • The Wife They Tried To Bury    Another death call

    Reed's point of view "Fuck.” My fist crashed against the steering wheel, the horn blared through the empty parking lot. I hit it again and again, yet the pain blooming across my knuckles barely registered.Breathe, a voice inside my head whispered and I sucked in a slow breath through my nose, held it and released it."It wasn't Damon's fault." I repeated the words under my breath. He didn't know Nova was my girlfriend and it was just a fucking game…but why couldn't I get the thought out of my head? Why did every replay make my chest tighten a little more?I slammed both palms against the steering wheel, the sound echoed inside the car as my breathing turned ragged; I should've told him, the second Nova agreed to be with me. I should've looked my best friend in the eye and said, "She's my girl."I leaned my forehead against the wheel and squeezed my eyes shut."This ends today."I shoved the car door open hard enough for it to bounce on its hinges before stepping out. By the time I

  • The Wife They Tried To Bury    My delicious meal

    Nova's point of view I almost scoffed. Walk away? Who walks out on a delicious meal…especially when it's your favorite? My eyes lifted to Reed again, he had that bad boy’s smirk on his lips and I knew he was as ready as I was. I exhaled, shook my head and slowly stood up; “I'm never going to participate in any kind of games with you all again in my lifetime. You all are dirty souls, who need divine cleansing.”Elsa laughed; “Accepted, worry not, we would be pouring out our hearts in confession rooms on Sunday.”The others laughed loudly, except Damon and Sarah. Reed stood up, with just a turn, he was walking towards the closed room.Butterflies filled my stomach. Oh God! This is really happening! I turned to Elsa, “I can't believe we are doing this!”Damon raised his hand as if trying to stop me, “It's just a game,” Elsa said, and his fists clenched. I took two quick steps towards the room, opened the door and almost cried in delight as the door shut behind me.***********"Reed..

  • The Wife They Tried To Bury    Kissed by my boyfriend's best friend!

    Nova's point of view “WHAT!!!” The room exploded into cheers and whistles. Laughter echoed off the walls.Damon stood immediately, smoothing imaginary wrinkles from his shirt. "No problem." His eyes fixed on me and a small smile tugged at his lips."No!" I blurted, shooting to my feet. "I'm not doing anything like that." I pointed between Sarah and Damon. "How exactly did I become part of his dare? Isn't he supposed to suffer? Why am I suddenly being punished?"Sarah laughed so hard she nearly bent over. "Exactly! That's why it's funny."I reached for the bottle. "I'm drinking."Jason caught my wrist before I could touch it and smoothly took the bottle away. "No, you're not."I frowned. "What do you mean, I'm not?""It's Damon's dare," he said matter-of-factly. "If anyone gets to reject it, it's Damon. You don't get to drink your way out of someone else's punishment."More laughter followed, I slowly turned toward Damon. "Damon... please, pick someone else, I don't….”He smiled. "No.

  • The Wife They Tried To Bury    The sting of betrayal

    Nova's point of view “You really should be ashamed of yourself, Nova.” Margaret’s voice sliced through the air before I could even react to the pain on my cheek.“Sleeping outside your husband’s house and coming back looking like…” she paused, her lips curling in disgust, “this….a filthy trash!”T

  • The Wife They Tried To Bury    Breaking the rules

    Nova's point of view The door of his sitting room barely clicked shut before his mouth crashed down on mine, kissing, biting and nibbling on my lips. He kissed like he’d invented it. And I followed his lead like I had no choice in the matter. He dragged his mouth away from mine, swore as he turne

  • The Wife They Tried To Bury    Living a lie for five years

    Nova's point of view I sat across from the doctor, barely hearing him. My fingers dug into the edge of the chair, my heartbeat loud enough to drown everything around me.“Mrs Nova? Are you listening to me?” The doctor’s calm voice sliced through the fog that clouded my brain.I shook my head, swal

  • The Wife They Tried To Bury    My Anniversary Gift

    Nova's point of view My fingers trembled slightly as I adjusted the lace that clung against my thighs. I held my breath, listening to the soft ticking of the clock echoing through the dim room. “Nova, you’ve got this,” I whispered to myself, pressing my palm against my chest trying to steady the
