Caleb“Let me tell you how to go about it-” Celeste leaned towards me covertly and whispered some words in my ear. I gasped at the ingenuity of her plan. However, a wave of optimism washed over me as the likelihood that this plan could work seemed very high.“I know I can make her fall in love with me,” I mumbled to myself in vigor. I had a grin on my face. Celeste had a mischievous smile on her face as she met her gaze.I waited several days for the tension to quiet down. I dressed up in a navy-blue tailored suit. It accentuated my broad frame perfectly. I quickly put on my gold-plated watch and leather shoes on the way to the office.This time, I arrived a few hours after the workers had commenced their daily duties. I aimed to avoid any further attention that would alert Rainora.I entered the office discreetly and signaled the receptionists not to inform her of my arrival.It was easy to confirm my details with the security personnel as I was among the executive members of the boa

Caleb “Let go of her…” A familiar yet domineering tone snapped. It had the baritone of an angry lion. The sudden command of that voice took me aback. I turned to confront the source of the voice, and it turned out to be none other than Nikolas. He shot a dark glare in my direction, which left me shuddering. But I regained my thoughts and met his gaze. “What are you doing here so early, Nikolas?” I had a cheeky smile on my face as I replied. His eyes darkened at my response. His eyes focused on my grip on Rainora’s hands. I tried to tighten my grip to antagonize him, but suddenly, Rainora managed to free herself due to my distraction. Before I could make any movement, she rushed off to the building. I had a smirk on my face as I watched her retreating figure. The audience watching the entire scenes eventually dissipated while whispering, making their conversations inaudible. “I came for an early morning meeting, but it appears I got here just in time-” Nikolas curved his lip

CalebI balanced on my soft bed mattress, glancing through the latest edition of a trending female magazine. It featured full coverage of women in various tasteful attire and casual wear. They looked stunning in their various poses and stances. It also featured various articles on how to enhance intimacy between couples and other relationship goals. This always made me chuckle. I read the magazine to while away time when I was abrupted by loud yelling and cacophony. I hissed as I dropped the magazine and headed out to the source of that squabble this early morning.I followed this noise to the dining hall, where I saw my elder brother, Nikolas, storming out with dark gazes. I had a puzzled look as I scanned across the room. Mother Irene’s face turned red in anger, she kept venting out her recent disagreements with him to Celeste, my younger sister. Celeste had a mischievous smile as she met my gaze. I surmounted that whatever happened between Irene and Nikolas, she was smack in the m

NikolasThe morning rays gently tapped my skin as I slowly opened my eyes. I woke up to the gorgeous view of Rainora sleeping in such harmony. Her occasional snoring made me chuckle quietly. I tried to slip my hand away from her grip, but she held back instinctively. I heaved a sigh as I resorted to keeping an eye on her until she woke up.Finally, she woke up with a bright smile on her face. Her eyes widened as she snapped back to reality. Her cheeks turned red and blushed. She bit her lips as she glanced at me.“Good morning, Nikolas.” She said calmly. She raised her duvet to cover her lips slightly. I grinned at her shyness. “Good morning, dear. Hope you slept well?” I asked in a sincere tone. She nodded in agreement, and her demeanor slowly changed as she probably remembered the events of the night before. My heart started pacing as I felt the urge to help her forget all her sorrows. I forced a smile on my face as I held her hand firmly.“You snore in your sleep,” I said mockingl

Rainora POVI squinted my eyes and recognized the smug on Catherine’s face. She wiped the sweat dropping from her forehead as she adjusted the camera on the tripod. She had a malicious grin on her face as she shouted instructions.“Move closer to get the perfect angle.” She gestured her hands to move towards her. I tried to feebly spring away but the burly man’s strength was over whelming. He twisted his smile slightly. “I like it when you resist.” He aggressively pinned me down to the mattresss.“Why are you doing this Catherine?” I pouted. She had a vengeful look as she gazed at me.“This video should be enough to dissuade Nikolas from your spell.” She pressed the play button on the camera.Just as he tried to remove my coat. A loud thud stormed through the door. A dominating figure stood tall at the entrance. His dark gaze shuddered the burly man, he had a murderous glint in his eyes as he met my gaze.“Nikolas-” I called out. He clenched his fists in anger till blood came out. He

Rainora POVSeveral days after the incident with Celeste in the office, it gradually returned to normal. After the buzz spread, the frenzy finally subsided. This was due to the fear of speaking ill against an executive family member of the company. I continued my routines as usual and proceeded with the to-do list for the day.I got a call from a receptionist on the ground floor.“Good afternoon, Miss Rainora. You have a package here addressed to you.” She said in a calm tone. My breath was caught in my throat.“Who will send a package to me here in the office?” I thought to myself. I snapped out of my daze and replied. “Yes, you can send it upstairs. Thank You.” I dropped the intercom.Moments later, a man dressed in a red shirt and black pants with a company logo crested on his chest walked out of the lift. He had a parcel balanced on his waist while holding a bouquet of red roses in the other hand. He had a polite smile on his face as he approached me.“Good afternoon. Are you Mis
