Nicholas could feel the repercussions of his actions all around him, the brutal reality of his impetuous behaviour hitting him even harder than Jace's fist had on his face.

His heart sank as he looked around at the shocked looks on the women's faces. Because of his unrestrained jealousy and unprocessed feelings, the evening had descended into chaos.

Where there once was tranquillity now stood a wall of tension. As Nicholas struggled to reconcile his feelings, realization dawned upon him - things would never be the same again.

Seeing the shift in his expression, Kiera did not wait for what was to come and swiftly moved in front of Jace, her protective anger flashing in her eyes.

"Nicholas, what are you doing? Have you lost your mind?" she cried out, the words echoing in the tense silence that followed.

Immediately Nicholas tried to salvage what was left of the situation. “Kiera believe me, I did it for you.”

Sadly Kiera wasn’t having it. “Me?” she scoffed at his silly excuse. “Nicholas

    By the time the concert ended, they were all together and Iris took the chance to introduce Peter to me."Kiera, meet Peter," Iris said, her voice fluttering with excitement. Her eyes were alive with admiration for the man in front of them.Seeing this, a self-satisfied glint flashed in Peter's eyes, however, Kiera caught sight of it and it triggered unease within her.Soon after, Peter's friends joined them. It did not take long for their uproarious laughter to slice through the chatter of the bar, but the merriment was tainted with mockery.“Yo! What party should we hit tonight, Peter?” one of the guys asked, his smirk broadening by the second.“Huh, I do not know exactly.”“I know,” one of them, a lanky figure with brown hair and dark eyes voiced, leering at Iris. "There’s one I think the babe here would like. Am I right?” he asked Iris, playfully leaning towards her.Kiera sneered, sensing the play they were at.Innocently, Iris shrugged. “Umm, I do not know.

    Walking into the company, Kiera’s head was held high, her gaze forward, her stride confident as the heels of her shoes clicked rhythmically on the marble floor.Dressed impeccably in a formal green jumpsuit, her golden blonde hair caught the morning sunlight as it cascaded down her back in a tidal wave.Her recent endeavours had not gone unnoticed; winning the exclusive rights to the formula, securing investment, and steering the company through rough waters, she became sort after by companies and looked at with clear admiration by the company's shareholders.All eyes were on her, pride in their gaze, respect etched in their silent nods. When it came to matters of her uncle, the employees, once loyal to him, were now viewing her in a different light as they evaded her uncle to be on her good side.As Kiera reached her office floor, Lisa, rushed towards her. The colour had drained from Lisa's face, her eyes wide with urgency.Sensing something bad must have happened, Kiera's heart sank

    Kiera's eyes fluttered open to the sterile scent of the hospital room, her mind foggy as she tried to gather her thoughts.The hum of the medical equipment was the only sound in the room which in turn was only interrupted by her own steady breaths.‘Where am I?’ she asked inwardly, still trying to figure out how everything happened.To her surprise, she found Jace at her bedside as he pushed out in his seat, worry etching his handsome face.As she shifted under the thin hospital blanket, an IV line tugged at her arm, an unpleasant reminder of her situation.“Tsk,” Kiera tsked as the pain shot through her brain.Spotting her consciousness, Jace quickly rose from his chair, settling on the edge of her bed. His usually stoic expression was replaced with genuine concern as he softly asked, "How are you feeling, Kiera?"Finally, she settled on the bed and managed a weak smile with the corners of her eyes crinkling. "I'm fine, Jace. But why are you here?" Her question hung in the air, her m

It was a sight that could strangle the air from his lungs.And as he stepped into the room, each footfall echoed the trepidation in his heart. A cold gust of wind whispered past him as the door closed behind him, making the situation feel more real.In the room, Jace stood like a towering pillar, his stone-cold gaze fixed on Nicholas. His hands clenched by his sides, his hostility towards Nicholas visible in his stormy eyes.Why was it that each time they faced a situation, they were graced with Nicholas’ presence? It made one wonder if he had chosen to be a leech or something.Dressed in a well-cut suit, Jace tucked hi

    ~Jace's POV~As I stood there, gazing at Kiera under the moonlit sky, her eyes sparkling like they once did and suddenly memories of our first meeting flooded my mind.The image of a young girl, sitting by the pool, delicate hands caressing the floating petals, was etched in my heart forever. She had captured my attention from the very start, her beauty akin to a champagne rose adorned with dewdrops.At that time, I was a teenager at a dinner party hosted by the prestigious Campbell family. It was a grand affair, filled with adults elegantly dressed, their laughter and conversations filling the air with a drone of mundane banter that held little of my interest.I often found myself stranded at these events, a pawn in the adult world of social networking, my presence serving as a bridge for my parents to engage with other like-minded elites.Seeking solace from the clamour, I made my way towards the pool, drawn to its tranquillity.

Once it felt safe enough, Kiera gasped now being in the centre of nature’s beauty."Oh my goodness," she uttered in disbelief.Every place they had been to was different in its way, stealing her breath away an

    Taking her by her words, Jace inserted a finger into her wetness. Kiera threw her head back, a loud moan escaping her mouth as she shut her eyes, welcoming the invading feeling of his finger.“Aah, Jace.” Her body trembled underneath him, feeling his dick poke her stomach.“Yes love?”“Faster, please,” Kiera pleaded while stoking his dick faster.Jace obliged but he ignored his need and tried his best to delay his release just so he could bring Kiera over the edge, making her extremely wet and ready to accept his dick.He was painfully erect and knew she might not be ready.He added a finger back in, keeping up the pace and watched as she bucked against his finger, before lowering his body and adding his mouth to bite and suck on her clit then went back down to lap at her entrance.In no time he felt that familiar feeling of her walls tightening again and knew she was ready to come.Rather than stopping, Jace attacked Kiera with punishing speed till he felt her thrash wildly on the be

    The pristine beach stretched for miles, but the sight that captivated Kiera the most was the luxurious white yacht anchored a little distance away.Its majestic form cast a striking silhouette against the orange-hued horizon. Up till that moment, her experience at the beach had been nothing short of a surreal time.And now, staring at the yacht face to face, Kiera could only wonder what Jace had planned for her."You know," Jace uttered, drawing her out of her reverie, his hand finding hers, "when I first bought the island, this yacht was the first thing I got. It was the place where I'd imagined sharing some of our most intimate memories,” he hinted.Curious, Kiera gazed up at him, her sapphire eyes shining as she awaited more explanations. "Why the yacht when you have the entire island?"Jace shrugged, the mischievous glint in his eyes revealing more than his words."There’s something incredibly freeing about being out on the open sea. No land in sight, just the two of us and the va

    After spending some time outside, Jace led Kiera back into the house for breakfast.Quickly Kiera excused herself to brush her teeth and get prepared for breakfast.By the time she was done, she met Jace in the kitchen and headed over to assist him in carrying their meal to the dining table.“There you go.” She smiled softly. Her gaze locked with his, sharing a moment before they burst into laughter and took their seats.“I made three different types of eggs. Classic French Omelette, fried eggs with veggies, hotdog, foolproof poached eggs and soft-scrambled eggs.”“Huh…” Kiera counted with her fingers. She looked at him, her confusion slowly morphing into a smile. “I think that’s four different kinds of eggs. That is excluding the boiled eggs of course.”Jace let out a laugh at being caught. “I’m sorry love. I did not know which you would want,” Jace explained.“You should know, anything is cool with me. It’s the thought that counts mostly, Jace.” She swept her gaze across the dishes

It is going to be alright.’ She assured herself inwardly.With that, she placed her hand on the doorknob and opened it.To her surprise, rather than meeting Nicholas in his office, it was empty and cleared out, leaving nothing of his belongings nor work documents behind save for a white envelope sitting on his desk with her name on it.“You have got to be…”She shut her eyes, unclenching her fists as her mind raced to find the right words to use at that moment.When she couldn’t get the best of it, she closed the gap between her and his desk, picking up the letter.“To Kiera,” she read out before scanning around as
