Alyssa's POV:

I woke up and felt a hand around my waist, I tried to remove it calmly but it won't budge instead the hand pulled me closer and my back was smashed against a hard chest,

"let go!", I said, trying to entangle myself from the jaws of the crocodile, I felt discomfort in this position, he being so close to me, he snuggled deep into me,

"Ricardo we talked about this, I will not cooperate in such activities", "you make it sound like it's a business deal", he said in his husky morning voice,

"to you everything is a deal", I said a little coldly, this man is really strange, he automatically becomes mean and stoic at a moment and then do this,

he is cold but his iciness is fire, it has cornered me until I burn completely, he didn't answer but squeezed me a bit,

"you are quite of a provoker, young missy", he cooed from behind, I had my claws buried in his hold but still he won't budge,

"but you can't win against the person who created this game, darling", he said in a low tone, his grip loosened and he got up, I was sitting now,

observing the cocky monster, he was checking himself out in the mirror, aren't you so full of yourself!, cocky much, he stared at me through the mirror and smirked then turned,

he looked like a Calvin Klein model with his bare slightly tattooed chest, resting against the dresser, he was observing me now,

you can't win against their glare game, you are destined to lose, his glare sent shivers down my spine, I diverted my gaze to the ground, "are you checking me out?", he asked cockily, I shot him a glare, he laughed, he went to take a shower, ow this jerk,

I was standing in the balcony, we were in the Crawford residence, the view was majestic, our room had a view of the pool area, I felt a little less distressed,

but then I saw Karma, working out, he was really scary when he was hitting his boxing sack, I could tell he was not really happy, he was on fire, then he saw me,

he stopped hitting, stupid Alyssa! run, he was glaring, wow aren't you lucky today, his guard was on, I saw someone else in him,

why can't I just accept that he has changed, he doesn't care for me anymore, instead hates me to the core,

I fled from his gaze to my room, he was scaring me, I saw the co Karma is that even a thing! using his phone, I silently slipped in the washroom with my things,

Breakfast:

"Alyssa there you are my love", my mum said to me so affectionately, and I literally ran to her, so desperate! she hugged me,

"you look so adorable, wait till you meet my friends, they will go gaga over you", she said excitedly, I smiled, we were seated,

beside me Mr brute, infront of me Karma, on my left side Mum and with her was daddy,

so yeah the environment was suffocating, getting death glares every now and then was so fun!, my eyes were fixated on my food,

I slowly stared at Ricardo, who had placed his hand behind my seat, and gave me a smile, he wants me dead!!!, what is he doing,

I gave him a look but his eyes could tell he was enjoying this, I saw Carlos staring at us like he would shot us right on this freaking spot,

"Alyssa, you wanna go shopping?", Mum asked, "um okay, I will love to", I said politely, I felt Ricardo's hand slowly grazing my shoulder, I moved closer to him,

"what are you doing?", I asked in a whisper, but then he did something, that killed me, he gave me a small peck, I was speechless, I was staring at him,

"couple goals", Mum squealed in delight and took a picture, wait what, Mum!!!. I was horrified, what is wrong with this family,

I was pink as well, "stop it sweet heart, look how red she is", dad joked, I fake smiled, I was so embarrassed, thank God the breakfast was soon over....

we were standing now, I was checking my phone in the living room, "Alyssa", I turned, it was Ricardo with his suitcase in hand,

"we have to complete the formalities", he whispered in my ear and smirked, slowly pulled me closer and kissed me softly but deepened it a bit, after that he smirked,

"be good", he winked and disappeared, why do I let myself be controlled by everyone, I heaved a heavy sigh,

I went to the kitchen to get some juice, I was unable to eat at the table because of the constant glaring, suffocative actions and fangirling of my mum,
I was drinking my juice, when I felt a presence near me, I turned, it was him,

"having fun", he exclaimed in sarcasm, I hesitatingly looked up and all I could see was rage and hate, so I diverted it back to where it belonged, that is the ground.... "I i um",

"don't, you don't own me any explanation, who am I to you, your past toy, he is your husband, your present, your freaking future",

my eyes shot up at his statement, he was so angry, jealous too I guess, I don't know, all I know was he was trying so hard not to do something chaotic,

he was trying to be calm and composed, "Carlos why do you think that I am doing this to make you sad",

"your actions don't hold much power, it will take godly mightiness to bring me down, you are too weak to do so", he said firmly, I tried to walk away but he blocked my path,

"you still have time, leave", he threatened, "I can't", I said softly, if only I could tell him that this marriage is just a business, nothing more, but I can't.. 

"you love it, don't you, this whole  game you are playing, you think you are winning but in the end you will be the one to lose",

"I am not enjoying nor I am playing some sort of a game, move or else I will scream", I spitted in anger and pushed him aside, I stopped near the door, "you were not a toy", I said to him without turning, and left.

My day started horribly so I just sat in my room till 12:00 then Mum and I went shopping and we came back at I guess 8 or 8:30, well we went for a brunch too then to a salon, so it was a daughter and mother day, I was so happy, mum bought me so many things, I refused a hundred times but she won't stop, so I just gave in,

I had gotten a text from Ricardo that he will be late, so I just goofed around in my room, then I got bored so I stepped out,

my room is located on the first floor, so I thought I should explore a bit, you know Mansion exploring is fun too,

one word "Majestic", the whole mansion was luxurious with big beautifully silk draped windows, polished marble flooring,

expensive furniture, gorgeous chandeliers, I took many pictures, plus selfies, what! it was like a museum to me,

so big and fancy, I was rich but not this rich, like filthy rich, I bet they have a lion somewhere too in this castle, I heard a thump, so I went forward and regretted it, my world came crashing down when I saw what was in front of me,,

I saw a girl pinned to the wall by Carlos, they were doing it in a freaking hall way, get a room!, I felt so degraded, I felt sick,

I wanted to throw up, the way she pulled his hair and released pleasure indulged moans, I could feel my tears welling up in my eyes,

he was so lost in doing it, I for some reason wanted to push him away, but why, maybe because I still have feelings for him,

you know the pain you feel when someone dies that was how I felt, he killed me, she was a blond with an hour glass figure, red dress, that was almost off,

so I moved before I get caught, but I heard her say "hey who is that?", I closed my eyes for a second, I turned, I saw him straightening his shirt,

"sorry, I was just exploring the mansion", I said plainly, that is good about me, I am a really good faker, no one can tell if I am sad or happy, I have mastered this skill,

I could tell he was amused, but I had the best poker face on, it almost looked like I really didn't care at all, he was smiling, so I smiled back, and his smile vanished,

I know I am a bitch but I was hurt, really hurt, I just wanted to punish him, so I did, she smiled,

"I am jasmine, you are?", "I am Alyssa", "my brother's wife", he replied without breaking eye contact with me,

"oh so nice to meet you, you are so pretty", she complimented, "thank you but not as you, you are perfect", she was flattered, I fake smiled, he was pissed,

I think he deserves it for what he is making me go through, she was holding his arm,

"you two continue, I think my husband is back", I said politely, and left, I locked myself in my bathroom, "I won't,  I won't cry", I tried to hold back my tears but it hurt so much, so I let them fall, I slipped to the floor while gripping my hair, I can't do this anymore I want out, but I can't.

well I came out after some hours, still the room was empty like my heart right now, I felt so nauseated, I crawled in my covers,

this is the only warmth in my life right now, I don't know why we can't move on from someone easily, why do we have to suffer first, break ourselves and then build ourselves back up, I still miss him, he is in my memory, His beautiful face, his perfect smile, his everything, he was a dream, and I guess I just woke up..... 

It all seems so far now, like it never happened, like I never met him, like I never saw his car, his sexy back, never met my friends, never got hugged my papa bear, never went on that amazing trip, the biggest fear never kissed him.

this is my life, I had him, I lost him, now he is back, but he is not my Carlos, he is Carlos Crawford the man who can set hell on fire,

the man who can make your life a living hell.
My avenging bad boy, let's play, let's see how far he pushes me, let's see how demonic he could get, maybe this way I will be able to hate him and move on,

Ironic how to even move past him, I need him, he can bring me back to life and only he can kill me, I am trapped but for how long, one year?,  will I be free afterwards...

no one knows,,what will happen when he finds out about the contract, only the thought of it makes me shiver.

***** ****** ******
