ELENA'S POVThe day was yet to start and It was already agonizing. It seemed like I should get used to this fast, for as long as I remained here. Looking around cautiously, I took the stairs back to the office. I climbed slowly as no one took this route except for the cleaners. It gave me enough time to process my thoughts clearly. I had barely gone far when my name was yelled harshly, breaking me out of my reverie. I was not in the least surprised to see Mr. Alvin behind me.His face was now a bit brighter, but the black lines across were still noticeable, at least to me who was guilty on every side.“What is the meaning of this, miss Elena? How did you go from this to this?”He demonstrated with his hands, putting them up and bringing it down afterwards. He had every right to be mad. I had failed them from the start.“I am sorry, Mr Alvin. Please help me extend my apologies to the rest of the board members. You all will be hugely compensated”I hated that I used his words, tryin

ELENA'S POVThe spacious corridor barely filled in my figure as I chased after Lucas in these torturous heels, cursing him every second the pain persisted. 'clack, clack, clack', until my little hands skimmed through the almost closed doors. I grinded my teeth, moving to the far end of the cubicle.I glanced down at my drenched suit, and wrinkled skirt with my pupils dilating in anger. Hurriedly reaching into my purse which was…empty!How! Stretching it a little wider, I dipped my head inside, hoping I was not seeing right. But it was still empty.Unable to hold it in any longer, I ferociously glared at the culprit behind me. Lucas.Of course, it was him. What kind of boss storms off like that? “Hey! You!”I bared my clenched teeth at him, still panting softly from the unplanned run.My annoyance grew when he did not even turn in acknowledgment. I marched up in front of him without thinking, “Have you now turned deaf, Mr. Lucas?”“How may I help you, miss Elena?”“You! Freaking lo

ELENA'S POVThe night slipped away before my eyes as I succumbed to the heaviness of my eyelids, muttering meaningless nothings.My ears twitched at the sound of chirping birds while I adapted a more comfortable position on the seemingly soft mattress.My nostrils picked up the scent of slightly burnt toast, which made me sniff harder, turning towards the direction it came from.I shot my eyes open greedily from the bed. The sunlight piercing from the chiffon curtains, caused my eyes to shut themselves instantly as they were not yet used to such brightness.I frowned sourly, holding my hands up to my head, shifting severally on the bed in discomfort. Everywhere ached throughly, especially my head. I instantly regretted the excess alcohol I had last night. Nevertheless, it was a new day and I could not afford another past regret stealing my day already.I opened my eyes again, staring blankly at the unfamiliar ceiling. By now, I quickly checked underneath the covers to see my clothe

~Los Angeles~****Ray****I watched her order shots of tequila till I lost count. A brunette who had high cheek bones and pretty eyes. A brunette I once held dear. She was definitely new to this club because I've never bumped into her in this particular club for the whole six months I've been visiting. I grabbed my glass of scotch, took a sip, leaning back in my seat, and watch as she pushed off the bar stool to head to the dance floor. Her hair draped over her shoulders and she gently spun around, placing her hands above her head while her hips sway to the music. Every move elegant, graceful and beautiful. I shifted in my chair, thinking of an appropriate way to talk to her, momentarily imagining her reaction when she finally sees me. Irritation, Anger, Betrayal? It'd be one of those. A man gets my attention when he sits down at the bar counter on the seat she just vacated. He casted furtive glares around quickly before pulling his phone out of his pocket and snapping a couple of pic

Chapter 7*Elena Carson*‘Mr. Hefner Alejandro?’ I whispered, my heart in my throat.He ignored my tiny whispers, transferred his irritated glare to his son who simultaneously wrapped a protective arm around me and draw me closer to his chest. My breath caught and I wished for the earth to just open up and swallow me. The attention we managed to escape earlier was now perfectly plastered on us.As bothered as I was, I doubted if he felt the same way. He met his father’s gaze with an unusual calmness, an unlikely smirk playing across his lips.‘Ohh.. My bad, father. I forgot to tell you about the recent development between us’ the sarcasm in his voice was very noticeable. My heart rammed in my chest. What’s with the utter unfriendliness‘Are you playing with me, Lucas? This is one of your crazy jokes. Isn’t it?’‘I wouldn’t dare to make such jokes…’.At this moment, it occurred to me. He was trying to get his father pissed off for some reason. One I’m not sure of.‘Meet me in my room ri

****Elena*****The moment I heard the car horn, I knew he was the one. I took one last glance at my reflection and left my apartment for it.. A black Tesla sat outside, a man in black holding out the door for me so I can hop in. I approached the vehicle, anxiety creeping in that instant. I jutted out my chin, trying to hide how nervous I felt, asides from the fact that this was the first time I'm seeing him after the talk at the cemetery, I was apprehensive about meeting his dad for the first time in two years. . I boarded the vehicle and settled in comfortably. To my astonishment, Lucas was no where to be seen. According to what he told me, he is supposed to be the one to come pick me up. I let it slide. Anyways, it's all for the best, I'd enjoy sometime alone before I get dominated by his cold aura again. The vehicle revved to life and I was getting driven to the location.I stared out the window, appreciating Boulevard. The street was lit up by street lamps, some teenage couples we
