NIKKI POV

I woke up with a loud knock in my door. I grunted in great displeasure. Who the hell is knocking at this hour?.. I check on the time it's 9:15 in the morning but still I need some sleep!!... Please just go away whoever that is.

Then I heard nothing. I was about to go back to sleep but then I heard it again. Louder this time and with urgency. I hope it's not about Dad. With a heavy heart I crawled out of my bed and I saw myself on the mirror.

Crap!!

I look like I was punched in the eyes severely. The maskara is smudge all over my eyes. And there's maskara on my bed covers.. Plus I was still wearing my dress from last night.

Double Crap!!

I quickly walk to the washroom, whoever is that, can wait or he/she can leave, I don't care! I cleaned my face with wipes, a make up remover and wash it. Then I change into a yoga pants and a tank top. I didn't bother combing my hair. My eyes was still sore and I can't do anything to conceal that. When I look a bit decent I walk out my room.

The door was silent so I thought he's gone. But as soon as I turned my heel to the kitchen, I heard it again.

I rolled my eyes with the urgency of the knock. I walked to the door and yanked the door open. I gasped and then my whole face I believed was distorted. It's not him that I wanna see first thing in the morning.

I swear If I forget what happened last night I would have swooned over his feet.. But the thought of his proposal was already engraved in my heart and mind.

Alexander was leaning on the door frame. He look at me not knowing to do if he smile or not.. He looks agitated and for some reason I don't know why. Is my fate taunting me?? I don't want to cry early in the morning..

"Why are you here?" I asked acidly not planning to invite him in, even if he basically owns the place.

"I just wanna check on you!" he retorted bitterly.

"As you can see Alex, I'm alive and kicking. So please if you have nothing important to say I want my peace this morning.." I begged sarcastically and gave him a displeasure smile.

"I can see that!" he smiled but didn't reach his eyes.

"We need to talk." he informed casually ignoring my sarcasm. Then he pushed himself in brushing his chest on my body. My traitorous body squirmed in excitement. He smelled so sexy. He just showered by the looks of his damped hair I curse every fiber of my body for this.

"Oh God.. I'm so regretting this.." I muttered as I closed the door. He walked in and settled himself in the sofa bed.

I just notice he looks like he didn't sleep at all. Dark circles under his eyes. Although my eyes is worst.

"So you're marrying Colton? I thought you and Michael are back together?" he inquired icily without preamble, gritting his teeth at the last word.

"Does it matter to you? You and Anna is back and soon getting married. What is it to you if I marry Colton or Michael?" I spat. My whole body was in enraged. Did he come here to interrogate me about my lovelife? What for??

"I wanted to know why? Is it one man not enough for you?" he stood up and uttered in a mocking way. Disgust lace in his words. Then the button was push, my temper flared rapidly to it's peak.

"Yes! Now are you happy? Just go away and don't ever come back! You got Annabel. You two deserves each other!!" I snorted icily.

"Annabel maybe sleeping with me anytime when I need her, but for the whole time we are together he never flirt or slept with another guy. I trust her she won't ever cheat on me even if I left her alone for a long time. You??? I don't think you could ever live without those guys in your hand. Are you just faking being innocent? ARE YOU????" he growled gruffly his eyes was fuming and he looks like he'll kill. I cringed inside but I tried hard to look not even intimidated or feared him.
