Zusammenfassung

As far as Kika could remember, her husband, Luke had always been in love with Melody. He couldn't let go of his wild feelings for her and they slowly grew into something dark and murky. Something twisted and ugly. An unholy obsession. The entitlement as a vampiric prince is called domination. Luke's domination was suspended indefinitely because of the atrocities he committed to satiate his sick desire to make the crown princess; Melody, who was already married to his cousin, his sole possession. Kika finally decided to let go of her unrequited love for Luke and put an end to the endless circles of pain and jealousy but he didn't want to let her go, he persistently refused to sign the divorce papers. After eight years of their torturous relationship and Luke constantly neglecting his daughter, he expects her to forget everything about it and move on. Kika is trying to put the interests of her daughter first but with Luke's sudden change, she's finding it hard to believe that he has finally decided to put his past behind him and forget about Melody. Will she allow herself to fall for him when there's a huge possibility that she might get hurt again? Or Will she decide that they both should go their separate ways and pretend that they were never married? Stay tuned to find out. Inspiration for book name: (... because his heart has always been frozen towards her, she'll finally pierce the ice and he'll fall in love with her.) *** "So if I miss you so much in these small ways even though we're not far apart from each other, then maybe someday, I'll start to understand those unreciprocated feelings you had for me for eight years." Luke smiled broadly at Kika, she blinked, she was completely stunned by his statement and it seemed her vocal cords had ceased to pour out the retort forming in her mind. Did he just say that he missed her? *** This book has two volumes 1. A brief trip to the past 2.

Chapter 1I'm giving up.

Kika stared out the kitchen window, her gaze lingered on the flowers she and Bloom had planted together. The soft fluttering scent that grows welcoming each day wafted in with the cool afternoon breeze, white roses, bluebells, carnations, a community of colours, and a feast for butterflies and bees.

She squeezed her eyes shut and opened them again. She sighed loudly and cleaned her wet hands with a disposable towel. It was only on bad days that she was able to acknowledge the beauty of nature, on days where she decided to just stay alone in her thoughts.

She wondered what she would say to Bloom once she returned from the Academy of magic in the next three months. She tried thinking up reasons to convince the little girl why she wouldn't be able to see her daddy anymore.

She trudged up the stairs to her room and removed the last of the clothes from the hangers, folding, sorting and arranging them into her three suitcases, she saw a faint light underneath a camisole. It was her phone, she had left it on DND mode again and had completely forgotten about it. She raised the front side camera to scan the metallic hue in her dim eyes, it beeped to confirm the successful verification then she opened her messaging app. It was a message from her Grandma.

She read it.

"Kika, are you coming home tomorrow?"

Her lower lip quivered while she typed in her reply, she'd dragged this relationship for way too long and now the sting of the unrequited love she had for Luke had eaten so deep into her heart, that the hole could fit a mechanical pencil.

She texted a reply.

"Yes, Grandma. I'm packing up my stuff right now."

She was about to drop the phone back on the table when her ringtone permeated through the steely silence of her emptied room.

"Grandma?"

"I'm so happy you decided to come back, dear. I've missed you so much."

Kika glanced at her face in the body-length mirror to her left, her eyes were still red-rimmed and swollen from her bout of tears earlier that day. She couldn't believe she was actually saying goodbye to him and everything he stirred up within her. He hadn't been good to her but she still loved him.

"I've missed you too, Grandma."

It's been five years since she last saw her only relative left in the world, she had paid a visit with Bloom after she turned five. Grandma Emil was immortal and she had foreseen the family business going back four generations ago. Her six hundredth birthday was around the corner and Kika had already picked out the perfect gift to bring joy to the old lady who looked no older than fifty-five.

"Hurry home, Kikan."

Kika pulled the phone from her ears. Grandma Emil had ended the call. She bent over to arrange her unused clothes into her red duffel bag, Stella might need them. Stella was the housekeeper that lived with her Grandma back in Janelle City.

She zipped it and rolled her other two expandable suitcases to the flush door that was slightly ajar. She swiveled around while drumming on the pink plastic that stored her luggage. Was she forgetting anything? Probably not, unless she's adding intangible things like her hurt pride, strained emotions, battered heart and bleeding ability to fall for another person.

She picked up her car keys and shut the door firmly behind her, while dragging her four bags towards the stairs she stopped briefly to stare at the door to Luke's room.

Did he even care that she was leaving? Kika shook her head and pressed her eyes shut, she didn't want to hear the answer to that. The answer would probably plunge her into another pool of salty tears again. She stepped lightly to reduce the echoes of her footsteps as she reduced the distance between her and the door. If only this was the door to Luke's heart, she would open it and try to make some room for herself on the other side of it.

Would it matter? He doesn't even take her as a person.

Back then she would holler at Asher and Melody and anyone else who cared about her enough to ask if it was worth it to cling to Luke like a pathetic fool. She would yell at them and declare how it didn't matter if he liked her back or not, she would follow him till the ends of the earth and search out his heart forever.

Kika chortled quietly.

What a fool she was. Forever, she said. Mind you, it was just eight years and she couldn't take the pain anymore. Living with the person you love but he despises you to extent that he could compare you with dirt.

"I'm not going to use the word forever so lightly anymore."

She placed her palm on the smooth surface of the polished wood.

"I thought forever meant a long time..."

She trailed down to the handle. She couldn't bring herself to twist it and push the door open. She remembered how many times she had barged in here over the years, it always ended with her leaving with either lacerations or both lacerations and severe pains from when he unexpectedly choose to possess her.

"...but I realized that it's different for everyone."

She withdrew her arm before her aching heart would push her to do something stupid and her determination to leave would begin to quiver. She needed to put distance between her and that door. It was still ten in the morning, Luke's alarm clock usually goes off at eleven thirty so she's swift enough, she'll be out of sight before his senses start to power on.

She tightened her resolve and after much struggling managed to get all the suitcases down the stairs in one piece.

Today, she leaves all her unreturned feelings, all the lies she's been telling herself, all the pain, love, torture, depression, and even the very few smiles she was able to catch a glimpse of on his face. She sighed. Those smiles were never for her either.

She pushed the bangs out of her eyes and reached for the doorknob.

Goodbye, her freedom starts right behind these panelled doors. Amidst the sense of sovereignty and inner peace that seemed to be calling her from the outside, a clearer voice shot through her defenses and jounced her all the way to her toes.

"Kika! Wait!"

The Devil's Good Girl

A cheating boyfriend and a traitorous best friend had always been a cliché start to a story. Fil often thought those things only happened in such narratives. Who would have thought this same cliché twist would happen to her? Fil was a devout Christian who held marriage and marital fidelity sacred. She had been a very good girl from childhood to adulthood. But when she caught her childhood sweetheart slash fiancé and her best friend rolling under the sheets, Fil wanted to rebel for the first time. The first step of her rebellious journey? Getting drunk. After drowning her sorrows with the help of alcohol, Fil met the enigmatic Jackson. The moment her eyes met those tantalizing golden orbs, words slipped past her lips without any notion of the kind of situation she was getting herself into: “Will I go to hell if I lose my virginity before marriage?” His thin, red lips curled up as a glint flickered across his naturally sharp eyes, and he said, “Who knows? But I can bring heaven to you if you want me to.” ***** Jackson. A man shrouded in mystery and secrets, licentious to the core with zero morality, someone who had grown bored playing games with life. Until one fateful night, a woman suddenly appeared before him — a perfect prey for a boring night. Little did he know, a night with a rebellious wannabee wouldn’t be enough to quench his biological urge. Nor would he ever fathom the colors she gave to his gray-colored world. A good girl with dirty thoughts and a sinful man who had even dirtier thoughts. A relationship that started for revenge and to satisfy one’s need; was there even space for true love? How? When the man bending her down would nastily whisper in her ear, “You've been a fucking good girl.” **** As the two grapple with their own demons threatening to tear them apart, doubts would start surfacing in their hearts. Was this rebellion worth sacrificing her principles for? Could she truly find happiness in the arms of a man so steeped in darkness? And for Jackson, was redemption possible for a devil like him? And if so, would she be the one to lead him towards the light? Would she even accept his darkest secrets and the hell of his world? In a world where trust was a rare commodity and love was a fragile flame, Fil and Jackson would have to navigate the treacherous waters of desire and redemption. Would they face the unknown together? Or would they let go to save themselves from the impending pain of being together? **** JOIN MY DISCORD SERVER: https://discord.gg/gXCMQwmrGY Spanish translation of this book is also available on Webnovel .
