“Would this horrible day ever end!” I screamed “That spineless bastard,John Jacob Jameson,my ex boss.The chief editor of The Daily Word the biggest newspaper in the city J.J Jameson let His assistant Gabriel run the office,that slimy toad, Has the nerve to fire me!
J.J jameson’s best reporter on staff and I am the only reporter who would go to any length to get the scoop. I actually been under cover for the past few grueling months .I tried exposing the biggest crime ring in the city’s history. I was about to find out the real name of the cities crime boss; known as The Surgeon . I gritted my teeth after the fact Gabriel fired me in front of the whole office. All J.J Jameson said as his validation to fire me “Gabriella, I’m sorry, you was getting in too deep .So,he had to fire me for my protection;my ass. Only Days away from finishing the writing the biggest story of my reporting career.”I fumed as I slowly strode out the my old building for what I hoped the last time.my spirts soared for once today . Only to have my phone churps with Oliver’s heart wrenching text.
Oliver: Hey babe,going out of town on a busniess trip and I can’t make going our six month anniversary.sorry will make it up to you!
“First, I get fired , my dad gets hospitalized, now my boyfriend cancels our plans. What else can fucking happen!!” I exclaimed . While I was wrapped up in my own melodrama people passed me by .They scattered for protection from the onslaught of the rain. I didn’t even try to find shelter from the large droplets I welcomed them. “This is the perfect way to finish off the horriblest day ever!”I sarcastically state.
Out the corner of my eye I seem a guy in a three piece suit sprinting through the congested crowd . I instantly stopped as barreling towards me at an alarming speed . In a cliché romantic movie the main character would gently run into their love interest . This is real life and things don’t happen like that. He slammed into me nearly knocking me off my feet. The douche didn’t every politely appologise for barreling into me. “ stop fucking painting your eyes shut so you can see where your going..” he screamed as he passed
“jerk ,you ran into me you should apologize !” I screamed as He ran off . I fumed as a passing car ran through a puddle of street sludge Water. Completely doucing me with the vile smelling water. I screamed and childish threw a tantrum in the middle of the sidewalk. Grr !!! I hate my life!!i screamed sarcastically .I tried to whipe the sludge from my face with my ruined jacket sleeve . I knew I should rush to the hospital to check on my father but I was in desprite need of a shower.
I waved down the Audi seen my driver pull up to the curb in front of my boyfriends building . My heels clicked across the pavement toward the dark Audi. I greeted my driver as I do each day after work. “Hello Fernando, I need to go st. Micheal’s hospital” the guy that turned around in the driver’s seat wasn’t my kind hearted driver .” Wait I know. You your that rude jerk who just barreled into me in the street.” I screamed he smiled. It was a handsome stranger in a dark suit”hello Gabreilla Santiago , let’s go for a little ride.” I heard the door lock click into the locked position. I grabbed for the handle furiously pulling it. To my dismay the handle didn’t move . The tires squealed as he sped away from the building .Myheart pounded inmy chest as I screamed for the back seat “ who are you and where are you taking me? I demanded. “calm down queen bee it’s only a short ride to the suburbs of our fair city.” I went silent knowing my pleas and screams were futile. We pulled up information of a grand home with a well manicured lawn. Once the car stopped I rushed out even though I didn’t know my destination . I heard heavy foot steps behind me as a muscular arm wrapped around my waist. He pulled me flush against his hard chest and whispered in my ear . “Queen bee, I won’t hurt you calm down your making a scene.” His minty breathe upon my exposed skin.for some reason deep down I believed him that he had no ill intent to do me any harm . We were staring each other down assessing the situation .
The door swung open a woman that should be magazine model came rushing out” clay, you didn’t tell me your coming home from France so soon.” She warmly said embraced both of us “where is my manners . “Hello clayton’s friend I am marisol welcome to my home come in “ oli come out clay is home ... she called out .two identical rambunctious boys came barreling our the living room. Clayton’s arm dropped from my waist to cradle the two boys in a huge bear hug. Dark curls surrounded their heads like angel halos. The air was sucked from my chest as my Oliver ... my boyfriend came down the stairs with a world best dad t shirt on.Oliver Sinclair’s handsome mouth dropped as his olive skin paledhe stood in shock atthe last step of the stairs. So this was the emergency busniess trip I thought as my fist clinched in a furious rage. Clayton once again grabbed my waist as he mischievously smirked at Oliver’s shocked expression”Gabriella,this is my brother- in -law Oliver Sinclair and his son’s Derek and dexter . Clayton dramatically emphasised each introduction.letting the words sink deeply into my subconscious .This vision of beauty is my sister marisol Oliver’s wife ..
“wife” inadvertantly screamed “your married !”
“yes his wife “Clayton stated proudly “Oliver this is my friend Gabriella “ of course he would be married silly. Doesn’t he look like a happily married man!” He cheekily said as Oliver pale face paled even further. Marisol had a confused look upon her porcelain like face. She looked from Clayton then to Oliver in shock at their odd behavior.

“A Mexican stand off “ one of the boys screamed from the hallway;so to speak .they both stood toe to toe .fist clinched, nostrils flaring in rage, and silently Staring each other down. Neither backing down til marisol got between the two men. “Clayton not in front of your guest she will never want to come back here.” She said calmly as she pointed in my direction. “ Oli, don’t scare my baby brother away again he just got back!” She cooed as she tapped his chest affectionately . I looked away at the sweet display of affection .I felt bile rise up within my throat.this is my fault.. my mind screamed..After the fiasco died down Marisol happily fetched coffee in the kitchen .when a large hand grabbed my arm pulling me into a nearby empty office. The door lock clicked in place as a the light flickered on . A very pale Oliver stood before me with a solmn look upon his weary face. In the light he seemed to instantly age ten years or s
“Where do you want to go now, Ella ?”his deep rich accent accented the sentence seductively. I immaturely rolled my eyes at his flirtatious laced statement “ cut the flirtacious bullshit it might work on most girls but not on me!”I snapped his shocked face was priceless. I want to freeze this exact moment for all eturninty. I pulled out my phone and swiftly took the picture . “Why you take my picture?” He asked. “ no one will believe me that the golden tongued Clayton Stone .could be shocked into silence.” I said cheekily as he smirked proudly at my response . “ your a formidably adversary Ms.Gabriella Santiago.” Clayton proudly stated .Knowing from only a few Hours knowing Clayton. That He is never speechless with that venomous tongue he has. He gripped the wheel til his knuckles held a white tense hue.“If I ever ...I mean ever ....have the notion to flirt with you . I guarantee yo
Finally after, an awkward car ride we arrived at his apartment building. It suited him it held a rugged flair from the ancient cargo elevator to the oriental wooden shutters. We finally arrived to the top floor. The elevator jolted as we hit the top Level the clumsy nerd I am lost my balance. I inadvertantly tumbled forward towards the hard elevator floor. I mentally and physically braced for the hard impact that would soon come. The impact never came . To find a strong arm grasp me around the waist in the nick of time. “ you have great reflexes” I complimented him .he pulled me against him steadying me upon my feet. “When we get to the initial floor there always tends to be a slight jolt .” He explains that deep accent accompies the explination . Thank god he wasn’t looking at me in the eyes . “thank “is all I could horsefully croak out he rubbed the back of his neck “Your welcome” His nearness and cologne was intoxicating yet he still held firmly .
I listened as he spoke in perfect manderian to the restaraunt around the corner. “Is there anything you can’t do “I said cheekily as he frowned at my quirky comment. It was suppose to lighten up the mood . It sorely missed its proper mark it only made more tenision. He went into the kitchen and grabbed extra silver ware. Instead of grabbing more silverware his shoulders were slumped over the kitchen sink. His head bowed as he tried to reign in his temper. His muscle in arms renewed as he gripped the counter. He spoke through gritted teeth . “Can we call it a truce on our verbal battles just for tonight . Gabby I don’t have the strength...I cant do this anymore .”. he honestly said.even though I didn’t care for physical contact often . I had a great urge to hold him he looked as volunerable as I felt . “I don’t want to fight either”i said soothingly but my words didn’t help. My phone rang loudly ...I pressed the red decline button.. “What ?!” I asked as he
Instead of devouring the sweet and sour pork or calling Oliver back . I went to the window and just stood there . Watching happy couples walk hand in hand doe below.jealousy and envy welled up within me. That could have been me like that I sigh..I heard his footsteps approached before I actually seen him. Gabreilla ...I mean Ella...erghh! I know I didn’t get permission to call you by your real name.but I’m sorry for being an ass ..his voice helda pure sincerity. you ment asshole. I corrected him he laughed “yes that but seriously you deserve better than this for a guy to treat you like a queen. So precious he would never let you go.”I felt tears stream down my face I never heard anyone say that to me before. That I am precious and should be treasured.I didn’t have a chance to thank him for his kind words. Then he did the most surprising gesture ever he wrapped his arms around me in a warm embrace. I wish I could bask in his arms forever but that’s not me an
After soaking for what seemed like hours . The powereful jetstreams Of the jacuzzi stream rejuvinated my body and spirit.I toweled off and put on one of Clayton’s clean button up shirts. I didn’t even want to try to find pants. I cringed at all the women clothing in his closet .. damn player’s are just as bad as cheaters I categorized them together. on the fact they play with emotions and have no remorse in doing so . I muttered as I thumbed through anything remotely wearable in my size.my only choices were his boxers, bathing suit and or a shirt ; then shirt it is. OkI thought After a hot bath and intense scrubbing. I didn't feel disgusting or vile for the whole Oliver thing. I didn’t even want to put a label on that mistake. I can’t believe I almost married him .. wait he could never marry me . That’s when the tears started to flow freely. I dramatically threw myself onto the bed not caring who seen me. For the first time in years I let myself finally cry
I had the best sleep I have had in months. “Mmm. Baby you finally slept over for once..” I muttered as I snuggled closer to his chest. This didn’t feel like oliver it’s more defined .what did I do last night ?! I screamed causing Clayton shoot up to a sitting position . He instictively grabbed his loaded gun from under the pillow aiming at the dark nothiness with in the room. After he dubbed the area was secure he put the loaded gun back in it original place. I cupped his face “good morning sunshine “and lightly kissed him his eyes widened in shock . Then a wicked smile spread across his face his held a glint up naughtiness.We probably would have deepened the kiss if the bedroom blinds hadn’t flew open.the sudden light assaulted our eyes. The shock was like being douced with frigid Water .“ wake up clay !” A feminine voice screamed. We both looked at her We both jumped apart in shock . She looked at each other in our half dressed state then at the now
I stared in the mirror my one dull eyes were bright with mischief and my sling held the. Honey glow as they call it glowing cheeks after a mind blowing kiss. I bite my bottom lips I had to get away from what ever this was becoming. I gathered all my abandoned clothing from yesterday and tried to sneak out. After the most embarrassing wake up call in my life . This semi walk of shame was nothing.I reached the door knob I heard “ Ella where do you think your going like that.?” I turned to see Clayton admiring the view “ pervert” I snapped as he stared at my bare legs from the door way.“I’m going anywhere your not going to be!”I snapped . He must be a gambler,because all emotions drained away til he stare at you with an unreadable glare. “Queen bee ,you wound me with that venomous tongue of yours. Please,Come inthe kitchen and sign this paper please.”“ if you insist on calling me that
Tantalizing me from afar that discarded folder mocked me. The forbidden fruit always at arms reach but always perpetually far from reach. I had two options either forget about the contents of the folder or try to obtain the folder. The reporter within me screamed at the thought of not finding out .what secrets that are held within it's pressed pages. I grabbed onto sins collared polo. Why do always wear black? It hides the blood stains..he said cheekily. I winced at the thought of someones blood upon sins hands. I'm not stupid and thinking that he is a saint and he wouldn't get his hands dirty if need be. He owns a high end bar in the rich section of the city.
" you can't control me anymore sin !I screamed With every sultry kiss I could feel my resolve slip further away . I had to stay strong and resist " no sin stop now! ." I screamed as I pushed him away. He pressed me against the door slowly making small circles with his tongue upon my fevered skin. I closed my eyes trying not to gaze into his deep stormy lust filled eyes. The door instantly opened as we toppled backwards . Onto a very hard chest behinds . His chest rumbled as he laughed at the scene that fell upon him. "If I'm not mistaken boss ..your suppose to make a girl scream yes not no!" Max said cheekily as I could feel my cheeks warm . I pushed away from both of them. " your just as bad as he is “I screamed as I stormed towards the front door . I could hear their laughter as I stormed through the front door. " sweetheart where are you going? sin called out as I made a crude gesture with my middle finger. "hunny seriously now where are you going? Sin seriously asked at he follwed
" this is not finished gabriella "sin scooped me up onto his shoulder .he swiftly slapped My bottom I squealed at the sudden act. He swirled around toward his parents direction ."make yourselves at home I have to speak with my wife "he said through chinched teeth.my bottom was on display over his shoulder as he strode out of the room. I heard his father chuckle "newly weds Can't keep their hands to themselves " his mother playful slapped his shoulder “ behave your talking about your son” “Darling remember when we were newly weds?” Me. Samisan wiggled his eyebrows at her as he asked. Mrs. Samisan squealed in delight “I will do like your mother did for us..start on the preparations for a baby shower..”she clapped her hands together joyously. I ignored their conversation as I pounded upon his shoulders with both fists . " Ryu put me down" I commanded which earned me another spanking . " he kicked open the door and gently deposited me upon the office couch. " what do you have to say for
Wtf I’m is his wife!! I hung there on a thin thread of anticipation and disbelief. it must be wrong it can't be I thought. “this can't be legal” sin screamed as he threw the document upon the desk . “Son, I got it notarized myself the day after. It's all legal and binding.” J.J smirked as sin paled. “ you better treat her right or else..” i didn't stay around to hear the rest of the conversation. Was it so horrible for sin to act that way in pure disgust. Why should I care what happens in his life as he said it himself? I mean nothing to him once again I'm thrown away. Not this time I refuse to be the one to be mistreated and damaged. I had two options at this moment either barge in guns blazing and slap that smug smirk from sin’s handsome face. Choose The lesser one where I would be I retreat quietly and leave with my shredded pride still intact. I chose to swallow my pride and retreat As soon as possible. I have the power to change my future. Starting today I will not be anyone do
Sin happily opened the abandoned folder upon his desk and slowly slide it towards me. “ what is this joke.this is not funny sin.” It's no joke my wife it's all bin dining and perfectly legal he smuggly said. Marriage Contract This is a binding legal document that states the nature of the relationship between both parties:Gabriella Savannah samison and Ryu Kai samisan 1.

I jerked up from the haze induced slumber. My head throbbed to a point of nausea . I looked around this wasn't the cold wet ground at the cemetery. I was wrapped in a soft blanket I in a warm bed. How did I get here was it all a sick dream. I gingerly touch my forehead my fingers skimmed over what must be a bandage of some sort. My vision cleared and I realized not only was I in a warm bed but my mud soiled clothes were gone . In its place a soft silk ivory nightgown encompassed me .why was in Clayton's bed and who dressed me? Theses questions swirled in my mind. I threw off the comfort of the blanket. I slowly padded my way to the door. I was going to get answers no matter the cost. I slowly padded my way down the hall . The wooden floorboards didn't squeal as I made my way towards the kitchen area. I heard hushed whispering coming for the office. The only room I wasn't allowed to explore. I instantly understood why Clayton for bid me to go there.

My vision cleared and I realized not only was I in a warm bed but my mud soiled clothes were gone . In its place a soft silk ivory nightgown encompassed me . It showcased my blossoming form perfectly. I thought as I remembered the picture in my pocket that my doc gave me days before. why was in Clayton's bed and who dressed me? Theses questions swirled in my mind. I threw off the comfort of the blanket. I slowly padded my way to the door. I was going to get answers no matter the cost. I slowly padded my way down the hall .

The rain poured down harder as I aimlessly walked . I thought about everything was finding out the surgeoun's identity worth this I lost margo, Clayton, and everything in between. The reporter inside me screamed "yes finding out the truth is worth all this trouble."In my aimless stroll I found my self at the highland cemetery at the center of the city. I touched each headstone as I made my way towards the center. In the distance I seen a figure burying something in the pouring rain.this is shady work to be doing on a night like this . I grabbed my phone to call the police or just anyone. No service I flicked my phone a few times but the battery died. even if I get a recording I wouldn't live for anyone to hear it. I got closer to the unmarked grave sight at I seen the distinctive ring an huge ruby gem on an silver setting . I distinctly remember juice wore the same one at our last meeting. It felt like ages ago that we had met in the coffee shop
“Blythe had enough balls to finally tell me the truth.. “My chest heaved with every syllables. I poked him in the chest. He resembled a fish out of water mouth gaping open and then closing. Then his jaw set into a hard scowl and coldness filled his eyes “When we're you going to finally tell me?“Not now”he snapped as blythe took a seat at our table watching the entertainment. “Dont mind me I'm just a bystandard” blythe held her hands up in the air. We ignored her completely as we started each other down. I grabbed the nearest fluke of white grape juice. Shock registered upon his face and tossed The liquid in his face . Drenching him in the honey sticky residue. Sin smiled at me the gesture. “This amuses you making a fool out of me”I screeched as I grabbed my bags and headed for the nearest door. I could hear sin scream at blythe who can't sat at the table watching this all unfold. I spun around to get a glimpse
