“Are you trying to say that you met after your first husband?” Mandy asked, still pushing. “It must have been a lot for you two having to keep it away from everyone. Can I ask you why? Were you scared of something or were you trying to avoid something from happening?”

“I am certain Zayn already answered that during his proposal at the launch of his company’s branch in Hong Kong,” Rina answered without batting an eyelid. “Just in case you missed it, you can always have access to it on Instagram. A lot of people made videos and some stations were also there to record the moment.”

Mandy got the message immediately. She was doing too much at that moment, and it was Rina’s way of telling her that she wouldn’t take her bitching without a fight. With the way she sounded, Rina wouldn’t be surprised to find out Mandy was friends with Kayla, and that Kayla had made the station send that invite. But what they all didn’t know was that she wouldn’t sit back and allow life to happen to her like it

    After the show, Mandy walked them out to the first floor, with appreciation falling from her lips yet far from her eyes. They weren’t exactly filled with venom. Instead, they were shifty, like she’d been caught doing something she shouldn’t have been doing. After Mandy walked back inside, Zayn snaked a hand around Rina's waist and moved toward the car. A fan popped out of nowhere, excitement in her eyes as she rushed towards Rina, almost skipping at intervals.“Rina Powers!” As she got closer, Rina saw she was only a teenager, quite tall for her age. The first thing that came to her mind upon seeing her was the possibility of her being a basketball player or a model. She had on braces, and pigtails, and Rina could see she was still in high school with her cheerleading uniform.“Hi there,” Rina beamed, smiling at the teenager. “You look great, I have to admit. I didn’t even look this good back in high school.”The girl gushed at the attention, and a red patch appeared on her cheek. She

    They met at an outdoor spot they used to visit when they were still courted. It was Rina’s idea, to remind him of what he’d lost the minute he walked out the door without giving her a chance to explain herself and going ahead to get on with her best friend who sabotaged everything she had, up to their child. She knew Finn was going to arrive on time, given the fact that he’d walked up to her himself the last time, so she spent longer than necessary at home, taking her time to get ready.Rina sat in front of her vanity, gazing into the mirror as she carefully applied very light makeup, choosing subtle and warm colors. She had chosen a pair of cargo pants for the occasion, always from Pages of Claire, a big t-shirt she had taken from Zayn’s freshly laundered pile the last time, and a pair of Nike. The plan was to dress down, but still appear exquisite and classy.Done with her make-up, Rina proceeded to put her hair up in a bun, dyed wine this time, with a few tendrils intentionally esc

    Rina always thought Finn was just a cheat and an opportunist who looked out for only himself, even in the most serious of relationships. But now, she had another title to add to the list - delusional. Who was he kidding saying that he was a victim where Kayla was concerned? They were both partners, as far as Rina was concerned, and if she was counting the number of persons that hurt her, they were both on the top list. In fact, they had given the rest of the world the freedom to.Dry laughter escaped her lips at his last words, and Rina shook her head, wondering when he would stop covering his face with a thick cloth and come to terms with the person he truly was. “I’m certain you didn’t ask to meet up to talk about your travails with Kayla, which by the way, is none of my business. So, if you don’t mind, can we get around to why I am here?”“Of course. We should sit.” They moved further into the pack and settled into one of the benches built like a bicycle, with handles and wheels at

    Finn tailed behind Rina as she walked back to the car, pleading with her to be heard out. Rina would have stopped if she didn’t know any better, if that was still the previous year, when she was hurt and confused, wanting her life back. Now, she knew better and made herself worth more than she used to be. There was no way she was going to waste all of that on Finn Smith.He caught up with her very close to the car, holding onto her arm. “Does Kayla know you are out here, Finn?” She asked in a very boring tone that should have made any man stop instantly, retreating into his shell. But not Finn. He continued, declaring his undying love so much so that it made Rina question if he had always been that shameless.“I told you,” he muttered. “Kayla is not the person for me. That was a mistake I made, and I know I am going to regret it every single day of my life. But it will make all the difference if you just give me a chance, Rina. We had such a beautiful family – you and I. We can make i

    They arrived back at the villa, Zayn considerably relaxed, his laid-back aura fully present other than the muscle working in the jaw, and the almost comic look in his eyes. Rina found it really exhilarating that he could get worked up over something that pertained to her It didn’t even matter that she was in over her head, hoping something would happen along the line, that he would look at her with a softened gaze, and an obvious tell of a changed mind, that since her first trip to Hong Kong, he seemed to have had a rethink and was putting very intentional boundaries between them. His current actions still made her giddy and made her want to get attached with unknown consequences. The villa was dark and quiet as they sauntered in, with Susan retiring to bed, and William with Igor, for some reason, were nowhere to be found. Zayn didn’t stop until he got to the kitchen, pulled the refrigerator open, and retrieved a bottle of water. He gulped it down, his eyes searching the space, and a

    Zayn closed his eyes as he spoke into the phone, suddenly aware of the proximity of Rina’s body and the things that was doing to him. He knew he should hold her back, so as not to complicate things, to tell her that he understood because he felt the same way every single time. Still, the willpower to allow those words to flow from his tongue was practically non-existent, and just like Rina, he didn’t want to walk out of that situation. At least, not like that. “I can feel every part of your body on me,” Zayn murmured as soon as he ended the call, sliding the phone back into his pocket. “Your petite frame – you…” He sighed willing himself to pull away now that he still was in a reasonably clear mind. Rina’s lips parted slightly, and she regarded him from underneath her long lashes. “You’ve been avoiding me since we last saw each other in Hong Kong. You barely look into my eyes, and each time you are around me, you waltz yet never come close, intentionally putting distance between us.

    Joel’s wedding took place in a grand hall, with guests trooping in in their numbers. While it was strictly by invitation, Joel had gotten himself quite a number of fans already in the country, with his fame in the fashion world and the clout of Rina being his anonymous model for a while. He’d basked in all the attention he had gotten that period, that even people who knew nothing about O.S.N previously started going back to old articles on tabloids to get the gist of Rina working for him. Still, she was elated he had gotten that far with his career. It didn’t matter that they were no longer on good terms, or that he had said harsh words to her face. Away from his currently obnoxious self, Rina still wanted to think of him as that man who had given her a chance when no one else had wanted to. And if she kept that up, perhaps, she would have an untainted version of him in her head.The moment she arrived at the venue with Zayn, the duo dressed in matching outfits, of a black suit and a

    A classical piece was playing in the background, the cello soothing and seemingly out of place with the cheers erupting from the guest. But Zayn didn’t look at any of that, didn’t even realize it, as all of his being was focused on Rina, waiting for a response to his question. She blinked twice before shaking her head. “I was just lost in my thoughts. It isn’t a big deal. We should go greet the couple.”Even after everything that had happened, Rina was still waiting for a change, an explicit one. She was done with denying her feelings to herself and even felt relief when she faced the truth. Rina was in love with Zayn Graham. She had no clue exactly when she had fallen that deep for him. Perhaps, it happened at the very beginning. But one thing was certain. She knew Zayn felt something for her. But after all he had made himself believe about love, he was not willing to see past that.“Are you sure?” he pushed, watching her intently. Rina nodded, feeling the full wealth of his gaze. “

  • A Broken Ex Wife's Revenge    Kidnapped!

    Zayn sauntered through the high gates he had grown behind, steeling himself for what was going to happen in there. He hadn't been careful enough when it came to this, only discovering mere minutes ago before his father's call came in. This was the reason he always said feelings never ceased to complicate things, and yet, he had fallen victim to it. Zayn should have known better. If he hadn't been so occupied with trying to make sure Rina was fine, even though he knew that was an excuse to be around her, perhaps, he would have noticed this development before it got out of hand. Now, he was left with the task of salvaging it, but his brain wasn't working in that direction. Zayn was worried about Rina, despite everything. He had whipped out his phone on his way to his father's house to call her, but changed his mind mid-way, deciding to call Susan instead when he was done with this little issue. He tried to think about a way out of this, his mind reeling and his eyes darting around the

    The moment the call dropped dead, Rina pulled herself off her bed, wincing slightly as she moved to the bathroom. She had a quick bath, and part of her was grateful that Zayn had decided to leave for his mansion. If he had remained in the villa, she wouldn't have been able to do what she had in mind. Zayn's clear instruction rang in her head, but Rina shrugged it off as soon as it occurred to her. She used her anger as her ammunition – anger that she had fallen in love with Zayn when she shouldn't have, anger that she had given herself a false hope that he would come around and admit his feelings knowing fully well that the great Zayn Graham doesn't give two fucks about love and whatever it came with. Walking out of the bathroom, Rina sauntered into her walk-in closet and pulled off something simple from the hanger – a pair of black wide-legged pants and a matching button-down shirt. Pairing it with white heels and a black tote bag, Rina applied light make-up on her face, almost unno

    Confusion set in Rina at once, wounding its arms around her so tightly that she didn’t think there was any route of escape. She sat up at once, pulling herself until her back pressed against the headboard, with her head reeling from what she had just heard. “I think you got the wrong person,” she said finally. “My parents are well and alive, and I know their lawyer as well, because it is the same lawyer I use. And his name definitely isn’t Marco.”“Pardon me,” the voice returned, sounding solemn and sad. “What I am about to do is probably not right since it is the first time we are speaking and it isn’t exactly a conversation to have on the phone. But at the same time, I know you wouldn’t meet up with me, unless you are entirely sure about what this is. You are a public figure here, so that means you are really particular about your security.”“You sure did your research,” Rina murmured. “No. Not exactly. I was just so surprised that all this time, you were right within reach while I

    Her door cracked open slowly, but it sounded so far off, like someone was making a scratching noise somewhere in the distance. She hissed and thrashed on the bed, willing whoever it was would leave her to her sleep. Just when she thought the source of the noise had gone, she heard it again, nearer this time. It echoed in her ears, pulling her out of an abyss she’d had no idea she had settled in. The space beside her on the bed dipped, and her eyes fell open slowly.“Hey.” His eyes appeared bothered, but at the same time, guarded, like he was trying so hard to be there with her, and at the same time, keeping something away from her. “How do you feel? Does your ankle hurt?”Rina shook her head, but the sudden sharp pain there gave her lie away as she winced. “You should stay in bed for as long as you want, until the pain subsides. Susan will ensure you have everything you will be needing for the three weeks the doctor advised that you remain in bed.”“But…”“Rina,” Zayn breathed. “List

    “What happened to her?” Susan asked later that evening after they’d put her to bed. The drugs she was given at the hospital for the pain were bound to make her drowsy, and despite how hard she fought to remain awake, because George had come to see her, she still had to succumb to the pressure of sleep. It was important for the healing of her ankles and Zayn was finally relieved when he closed the door behind her. “She tripped.”“But that isn’t all. Something made her trip.” Susan read it easily from his eyes, tilting her head and waiting for a response. “I’m not sure,” he sighed, running a hand through his hair. “I know you might think I am chasing shadows because of how much I have been trying to protect Rina.”“I don’t think so,” Susan replied. “If somebody was trying to hurt her, you would be the best person to know. Nothing I say is valid if you believe in your guts that what happened earlier wasn’t an accident. And you shouldn’t give it a rest until you get to the end of this.”

    All of Rina stilled with those words hanging in the air. She had thought about it a million times, about how it would feel when she finally told him. But no amount of mental preparation would have ever prepared her for that moment. She searched his face intently, even though she wanted to hide away from him at the same time. Rina waited for him to scold her, to tell her that their contract had fallen through because of her errant feelings, and that he was no longer interested in getting married to her. But the only thing that circulated round the small space was silence, loud enough to pierce through eardrums. “I am not saying this so you have to say anything in response, or feel a particular way towards me. I just wanted to have it out there. We have been through so much together already, or rather, I have been through so much with you standing by me all the way, showing nothing more than understanding. If this isn’t what you want, I think it would be unfair to keep it away from you

    Zayn was at Rina’s first run on set, at one corner of the stage, watching closely as Rina acted a scene for the third time. For some reason, the director had decided to start with the middle of the script, running it up to the beginning, and then down tlo the end. It opened with the scene where Zico and Rina found that they were in love with each other, finally giving their love a chance, much to the hatred of Mandy, who was now the second female lead. The scene played out in a cozy bedroom setting, with Rina walking in with Zico at the end of a long stroll. The plan was to get a bottle of water from his house and then move to hers. But their emotions got the best of them, the sexual tension in the room heightening. The director had asked that the scene be re-acted a thousand times because there wasn’t enough chemistry, and Zayn was beginning to lose his patience. His hands folded into fists by his side, as he glared at Zico’s hands wrapped around Rina’s waist. He could see the reso

    Kayla watched Rina speaking to Regina from the top floor and crossed her arms across her chest, wondering what their conversation was about. It couldn’t be anything related to acting, as the submissive look in Regina’s eyes and the haughty look in Rina’s didn’t exactly depict that. Angling her head, Kayla remembered she had seen Regina with her right-hand man just the previous night before he had taken her home from Scottsdale. They’d been out in the garage, talking about something, with their eyes hiding the beginning of a budding romance. Perhaps, that wasn’t all it was. She should have paid more attention, maybe even listened in on their conversation before interrupting them in that manner.Her right-hand man would never divulge any information about Kayla. Or at least, that was what she thought. But just to be safe, Kayla made the decision right there to play her last card. She had been holding on to it for as long as she could remember, but maybe it was time to let go. Smiling cr

    Rina got the news of her playing the lead in the new part of the movie, and excitement coursed through her as she made her way down to Scottsdale to sign some papers and get her script. George couldn’t go with her as he had a meeting outside town with a new client, so she went with Igor instead, sitting at the passenger’s side of the car while he skillfully navigated the traffic to get her there on time. Things had gone back to normal since Finn got arrested, and it was like the drama had finally come to a halt. Although, the one thing Rina wanted, which was for Zayn to tell her how he felt about her, was yet to happen. He was still measured and controlled in how he related to her, barely even grazing her skin each time they were in the same room. He'd stopped coming into her bathroom like he usually did each time she was having a bath but now stayed away from the villa as a whole, returning only when entirely necessary. Rina could feel him running away from something. She had notic
