An Ice Queen for sale (Alice) novel Chapter 76

Chapter 76 Madness 

Gideon 

I sat in the bath, trying to calm down. My anger took the lead of me. I could not control my feelings and that made me mad at myself. I shouldn’t shout at her, and I shouldn’t behave like that 

Being in a relationship, loving my partner, was new to me. The life that I lived before I got to know her wasn’t normal at all, and I was the one who told 

her about it. 

I remembered that guy from the funeral. I knew she loved me, and I didn’t think she’d cheat on me or she’d feel anything towards him, but still 1 wouldn’t have been at ease if they would have trained together. Probably, she felt the same. 

And she indeed saw and heard a lot. I remembered when Gemma screamed just to let her know how much she enjoyed being with me in bed. I remembered her face when I saw her in the kitchen afterwards, 

I shouldn’t have wondered why she was untrustful with me. 

I got out of the bath, and after 1 dried myself and dressed, I went to bed. I knew I was going to apologise to her, but she needed to understand what kind of life I got to live. The morning could be the right time to have a conversation about it, I thought. Watching her space on the bed made me miss her from next to me. I tried to ignore my feelings, and I turned on my side. My wound hurt me a lot, but probably because I had a hard day, I fell asleep 

Moon. 

I had a bad dream. I dreamed about her. She left me for that boy. She told me she can’t live this life that I lived, so she was choosing the simple life with that guy. 

I woke up confused. I looked around, and it took me a while to realise that it was only a dream. A dream was so intense I felt I needed to hug her. 1 needed to feel that she was really next to me. I tumed around to do that when I realised the place next to me was still empty. 

I searched for the switch on the bedside lamp, which made my wound hurt a lot again. When I lit the lamp, I looked around. To realise I was still alone in the room made me feel heartbroken. 

I pulled myself up. It made my arm ached a lot. The doctor gave me painkillers. Probably, the effect of them was gone by now. 

I got up, then I left the room. First, I tried her old bedroom. I thought she would sleep there after our argument, but my heart sank to see her room empty. The next room I hoped to find her was the living room, but when I found no one in there, I felt the first whiff of panic. 

“Alice.” I shouted. 

I walked into the kitchen to find it empty as well. I punched the wall, then I checked the clock. It was three o’clock in the morning. She got up early to train recently, but not this early 

A thought went through my mind, which made me tremble with fear. I ran to the gym, and I checked the door. It was open. I held my head while I screamed. I was angry with myself, how I could have been that stupid? And only God knew where she ended up. 

I took my phone while my hands were shaking, and I called my father. He picked up the phone soon, but clearly I just woke him up. 

“Gideon, what is wrong?” He asked in a sleepy, but excited voice.“Alice, Alice disappeared” My voice trembled. I was on the edge of going mad, and my 

probably realized that as his voice cleared up immediately.

“What? Where did she go? Why?” 

had an argument. She is out somewhere. For fuck’s sake, help me dad. We need to find her. Please,” 

“Okay, son, don’t fall apart. I call Seth and the guys. We’ll find her. I’ll be there soon.” 

Then he hung up. I slipped down against the wall, and an unfamiliar feeling made my eyes wet. If she will get harmed or killed, I would never forgive to myself, I thought. 

It took about a half an hour for my dad to appear. My mum came with him. She hugged me and tried to calm me down. Sloane arrived shortly followed by Seth 

When they were about to go after her, I was the one who moved first. Sloan and my mum tried to hold me back, telling me I wasn’t in that state, but I needed to find her. I argued with them, but finally they accepted the fact, I couldn’t stay and wait for our team to bring her back. 

Chapter 76 Madness 

When we went out, Sam came to me to apologise, but I punched him as an answer. My dad and Seth held me back from harming him seriously. 

Seth gave us ideas where to find her, but we completely lost her. She could catch a bus or a train to leave the city, or anyone was free to get her, as she was alone and vulnerable. 

I slipped down on the ground of the bus station, and I held my head. My heart was broken into two for sure. It hurt so much; I felt like there was no meaning to anything anymore. Losing her made me feel like I was a pathetic example of a life being. I failed to protect her, and I couldn’t hate myself more for losing control of my feelings. For shouting at her. To make her leave me. 

I don’t remember how long it took for them to pull me up from the ground. Probably the entire place looked at me when I cried her name. I shouted for her, but only Seth and my dad were present. They escorted me home and ensured my safety. Sloane and mum held me from both sides, and they tried to calm me down. 

It was about an hour that I could spend with them, but I felt like I was going mad to just sit in there. I made them understand I couldn’t stay in my house, only waiting for the news. Riccardo wanted to kill her, and that rat was around as well. Finally, after they made sure I was mentally fine, they let me go 

go with Seth to search for her.
