Sarah’s Point of view:After breakfast, I offered to clean up after us."Since you did the cooking, it's only fair I clean up after," I said.Ethan smiled."Okay," he replied. "I'm going to have a bath."He pushed back his chair and stood up."I'll see you afterwards," he added.With that, he left the kitchen, leaving me to tackle the dishes.I began loading the dishwasher, lost in thought.The morning had been surprisingly enjoyable even with the restless night I had.Ethan's unexpected cooking skills had put me at ease.After finishing the dishes, I wandered through the house, deep in thought.My feet carried me to the library, a room I hadn't explored yet.I pushed open the door and stepped inside.The musty scent of old books enveloped me.I walked over to the expansive bookshelves, running my fingers over the spines.Thumbing through the titles displayed, I discovered classics, bestsellers, and rare editions.I picked a fantasy book from the bestsellers - "A Court of Thorns an
Accidental Love 45. Ethan: Girlfriend
Ethan’s Point of view: As I walked out of the theater room, I couldn't shake off the tension between Sarah and me. That almost-kiss had left me reeling. I had wanted to kiss her, to see if the spark between us was real. But duty called, in the form of an urgent business call. I took a deep breath, composing myself. My assistant's voice on the phone brought me back to reality. "Ethan, we have a situation with the Smith account." I listened intently, my mind shifting gears. After the call, I headed to the office. My thoughts drifted back to Sarah. She was getting under my skin. I couldn't deny the attraction. But our agreement was clear: no strings attached. Why was I suddenly craving more? I pushed the thoughts aside. Focus on work. As I walked into the office, I was greeted by the familiar hum of activity. Our logistics company, Grey Empire Shipping, was a well-oiled machine. But today, a critical issue needed my attention. "Ethan, we have a sit
Accidental Love 46. Sarah: Overwhelmed

Accidental Love 47. Ethan: Fragile
Ethan’s Point of View: As I held Sarah close, feeling her tremble in my arms, my heart swelled with concern. What had happened to her? Who had caused those tears? I gently guided her into the car, careful not to jar her. Ben's curious gaze met mine in the rearview mirror, but I shook my head. Not now. Sarah needed me. I settled beside her, cradling her in my arms. Her tears soaked through my shirt, but I didn't care. Her face buried in my chest, and her body relaxed, trusting me. As she slept, I stroked her hair, trying to calm my own racing thoughts. What had triggered this breakdown? How did she get here? Why did she leave the house? Was it Emily's condition? Or something more? I glanced at Ben. "Home, please," I said softly. Ben nodded, his eyes never leaving the road. The drive was quiet, except for Sarah's occasional sniffle. I held her close, whispering reassurances. "I've got you, Sarah. You're safe now." As we pulled up to the mans

Accidental Love 49. Ethan: Regrets

I quietly slipped out of the room, leaving her to her rest.I entered my room to change from my yesterday’s wrinkled clothes to my gym wear.In my gym outfit, I headed to the home gym, ready to blow off some steam. My workout was intense – stretches, dumbbells, treadmill. But it was the punching bag that truly unleashed my frustration.As I pounded the bag, my mind wandered to Sarah's heartbreaking story. Her struggles, her pain. I wanted to help, to protect her.I thought of something to do to help and support.I went up to my phone to send a message to my assistant.“Get me a security company that offers bodyguard services”“Okay sir, anything else?”“Book an appointment with Mrs smith for an hour therapy session”“Under whose name?”“I’ll get back to you on that, just get me the security company”“Alright sir.”After my workout, I quickly showered.

Accidental Love 50. Sarah: Lesson
Sarah’s Point of view: I stormed upstairs, slamming my door shut. Tears of frustration and anger streamed down my face. How could Ethan do this? He promised to listen, to understand. But instead, he took control. Decided for me. Disregarded my feelings. Just like Alex. The similarity stung. I felt trapped again. His words echoed in my mind. "I've hired security details to escort you everywhere." "I've booked a therapy session for you today." As if I couldn't make my own decisions. As if I needed a savior. I paced my room, trying to calm down. But the anger lingered. I needed space. Time to think. To process. Ethan's text arrived, apology in tow. "Hey Sarah, I'm really sorry. I didn't mean to disregard your feelings and make decisions for you. I was in the wrong." I read it, but couldn't respond. Not yet. I needed to understand my own emotions first. Why did Ethan's actions hurt so much? Was it the control? The assumption? Or the

I asked."Why did you take control?"Ethan's expression turned thoughtful."I wanted to protect you," he said."But why did you think you had to?" I pressed.Ethan's gaze dropped."I know I messed up," he admitted."Explain," I urged.Ethan took a deep breath."I was scared for you," he began."I thought I could fix everything.""But you didn't listen to me," I pointed out."I know," Ethan said.

I didn't feel like getting out of bed, and the thought of facing the day ahead felt overwhelming.As I lay there, tears began to well up in my eyes. Today was my parents' death anniversary, a painful reminder of the loved ones I've lost. It's been three long years since I last heard their laughter, since I last played chess with my dad.

Accidental Love 62. Sarah: The party
Sarah’s Point of view: I stood transfixed before the mirror, mesmerized by the reflection staring back at me. The stranger's fiery red hair and captivating features were unmistakably mine, yet utterly transformed. The navy blue gown hugged my curves in all the right places, its sculpted square neckline framing my face. The twisted waist detail accentuated my slender figure, while the dramatic long cape sleeves and subtle shoulder padding added an air of sophistication. A daring thigh slit added a touch of sass, balanced by the elegant maxi length. The invisible zip closure ensured a seamless silhouette. I paired it off with black strappy heeled sandals with diamanté chains. I looked like a goddess, radiating confidence and poise. "Stunning," Treyvon breathed, stepping back to admire his handiwork.
