Chapter 128 Date With Nicole
Alex cried.
Alex cried for the very first time in his two lives.
The loss of his wives was far too much for him and he couldn't cope up.
Despite appearing strong on the outside, he was totally broken on the inside.
Alex had not interacted with any of his wives in his two lives, but them going missing was enough to break something within him.
What that something was... after some thought, Alex had realized it was his world.
His wives were his world and he cared about no one else. His everything and his very being revolved around them and not being able to communicate or even contact them was a literal hell for Alex.
Nicole and Lucielle were there for a while and he managed to keep himself sane for a while, but that didn't last for long as well and he totally lost it when he and they were kidnapped.
This torture Alex felt, even as a hallucination, it was far too much and his mind was on the verge of breaking.
If it weren't for the shadowy figure, he really would've been broken and never recovered from the shock even after breaking free from the hallucination. The Goddesses realized that something was really really wrong for their husband to cry like this. They were greatly worried for him and were constantly checking up and asking what was up.
Half of them comforted Alex while half tried to talk to him. No matter what, he wasn't responding and merely crying while hugging whomever he could.
Melissa and Scarlett were the ones near him and currently he was hugging those two really tightly. If they weren't Goddesses, they would've been suffocated by now.
Lumina and Fate were hugging Alex from behind while the rest were trying to talk and get a response.
Despite being Wisdom herself, Athena failed to converse and get Alex to speak or stop crying. It was really a bad situation.
Others tried their luck too, but it was to no avail.
Meanwhile, Alex was simply zoned out and not looking at what his wives were doing. In his vision, everything was dark and he just felt the warmth of his wives and their touch on him.
While feeling that, his life of second regression flashed back into him and made him realize just how worse of a situation he was in.n((OVelBIn
Alex's wives were never not there for him, not even for a single moment. This had been going on for eternity.
Suddenly being taken away from them, Alex could not cope up. Thankfully, it wasn't for too long and he was reunited with them, otherwise Alex really would break.
He cried for quite a while and eventually fell into a deep sleep, just like Samuel, Carl, and Jagan.
When the girls had entered this place, they had immediately made those three fall asleep as they didn't want them to see the things they were doing.
As those guys fell asleep, the girls focused on Alex fully and this continued on until he slept as well.
Once Alex slept and they were slightly worry free, one of the girls mentioned there being a person trapped below in this graveyard.
Ember, who heard this, didn't even hesitate or waste time and simply dug her hand deep in the soil, eventually pulling out the girl in question.
This girl was none other than the brown-haired Natasha, Alex's old friend.
She wasn't looking like a ghost as there wasn't any curse on her anymore. She was curse free and could do whatever she wanted.
For now, she was sleeping as well and the girls continued to watch over their husband.
For the whole day, Alex slept.
Once he woke up, he found himself lying down on a big soft bed with his wives around him.
Alex didn't know what emotions he was feeling, but he was truly happy to experience such a scene.
The girls noticed him waking up and eventually asked about what had happened and what went wrong.
Alex didn't deny and then truthfully told everything.
The girls nodded and everybody gave a forehead kiss to Alex, stating that he shouldn't worry, they would always be there for him.
The day ended with Alex doing nothing but spending time with them.
Through them, he came to realize that Natasha was saved without a hassle and he was thankful to his wives.
As night descended, Alex slept once again and the next day, woke up fresh and energized, ready to take revenge on everyone who had wronged him, even if it may be in a hallucination.
Alex flew away from Libya and came back to the states.
He locked himself up in his room for three days straight and planned everything meticulously.
Once finished, he said in a murderous tone, "Madeline, Bryan and Edward..."
Those three were the ones who had done something one should never even think of. There was no mercy for them and Alex would make them pay dearly.
Though, it was not a sure shot thing as to whether these people were evil in this life or not, so he would first look for signs and if he found even a single one, he would break those guys apart.
To execute these things, Alex would first need to better his relationship with Nicole and Lucielle.
To do that, he called Nicole and said with a smile, "Hey, are you free?"
Alex's mood had flipped and he was back to normal. Not the usual normal, but in a similar normal state as before.
"Yes. Do you need anything?" Nicole asked right away. Alex would only usually call when he needed something.
"Yes," said Alex seriously. "I need you, can I have it?"
Nicole sighed as she heard this joke. Alex couldn't see her, but could feel that she was rolling her eyes at this.
"Stop joking, I don't have all the time," Nicole said.
She wasn't aware of what Alex had been through and just thought that he went to India, then Jordan, Egypt, Libya, and was finally home.
While she was working her ass off in the office, this guy was vacationing far away, that too without her. The audacity...
Nicole was just joking with herself. She knew that Alex went to India and then these places for important work. His friend's life was in danger and it was no wonder why the rush was there.
"I am not joking. I really want you. Let's go on a date. When will you be free?" Alex clarified and said seriously.
"What?" Nicole was in disbelief.
"Miss Director, please make some time and meet this lover of yours," Alex said with a chuckle.
Nicole was probably cringing at this, but replied nonetheless with:
"Dinner tonight then?"
"Done. But it'll be at your house and you aren't to dress up until I visit you. You'll dress up only when I am watching," Alex instructed with a smirk.
"What?" Nicole was dumbfounded and totally shocked now. Since when did Alex become a pervert? Where was the romance and where was the—
"My dear, weren't you the one who wanted to hookup with me when we first met? I have seen all there is, what's there to be shocked about? Anyway, I'll see you at 6 and we'll have dinner by 7 pm. Take care."
Alex didn't let Nicole reply and ended the call. He knew she wasn't going to reject anyway. She would be a bit flustered knowing they, but being a mature lady, would be able to handle everything easily.
Alex then called Lucielle and a similar conversation went with her. He fixed a date with her tomorrow and it was at a bar.
Since Alex had the rest of the day remaining now, he went ahead and spent quality time with his family and wives.
.....
Next day.
Ding!
Alex rang the doorbell and in a minute, Nicole opened the door and was right in front of him.
This was a beautiful mature blonde-haired lady with emerald green eyes. She was in her office uniform, a white formal shirt and tight black skirt.
"Welcome," greeted Nicole as she saw Alex.
Alex smiled and walking close to her, hugged her, surprising her. "I thought you would jump on me when you saw me."
Nicole scrunched her nose. "Do you think I am a little kid or something?"
Alex chuckled. "The others do it and I love it though."
"Then go meet others," Nicole spat out.
Alex smiled and pulled Nicole's soft cheek. "Jealous?"
Nicole swatted Alex's hand away. "Stop treating me like a kid and that too in my own house. Show some respect to the Director."
Alex laughed and didn't comment on it. He really liked Nicole now and she had done a great deal of things for him in his second regression.
He wasn't going to suppress his feelings for her, but was going to act as his true self when with her. Flirting and joking was just one part of his true self.
The two walked inside Nicole's luxurious mansion and on his way, Alex's gaze fell on Madeline who was in camo pants, sipping coffee and going through her phone while sitting on the couch in the living room.
For an instance, a mighty murderous look flashed in Alex's eyes and he thought to himself, 'Just one sign is all I want to see...'
