He smirked and shifted a bit from his position, his eyes delving deeper into mine. “Don’t you remember? I told you I wasn’t going to rest until I made you mine.” He moved closer. “And yesterday…”

He was so close to me, the only thing that prevented our bodies from touching was the picture. He reached for my face and he stroked my right cheek with the back of his hand.

I closed my eyes to relish the effect of his touch. “Yesterday, I made you mine.” When I opened my eyes, I saw victory in his eyes. “And I don’t regret it. You are not giving me a reason to regret it either.”

I certainly did not see this happening. The air around us was so tense as he claimed me with his smooth yet ferocious voice.

“Um…” I gulped as my spell bound self tried to break out of his enchantment. He cupped my cheeks and leaned in a bit closer, his eyes watching mine as though to read my reactions. “Mr Powers?”

With darting eyes, I gulped again when he leaned even closer and made our lips only a few inche

    GRACEWith my latest addiction - a cup of the hotel’s specially crushed orange juice- wrapped around my fingers, I stared into the night, thoughts running through my head.A few seconds later, I unlocked my phone and scrutinised the bold headline staring at me.Business + Glamour: Is the ever-riveting Dominic Powers dating again?The headline was followed by a picture from the event. It was taken when I was searching for that table with drinks in my hands. Mr. Powers’ arm was linked with mine, his head was slightly tilted in my direction and from the image, one could tell that he was saying something to me.After that image was a write-up that initially assumed I was a waitress. But when Mr Powers was seen taking a seat next to Ruby and I, they had to wonder if I was the new woman in his life since Diane who he was married to for a year.Apparently, they had no idea about Regina or any other girlfriends, if there were any.The issue right now is that I can’t afford to be in the limeli

    GRACE“Oh come on,” I muttered as I could sense that his intention would involve a lot more teasing.“Did you say something, Miss Sands?” His hand found my thigh and he tickled his fingers against my skin. That brought back the feeling I have been yearning for. I let out a sigh of relief.“No.” It was becoming hard to control my breathing. “I said nothing.”“I thought so.” His lips which were in a smug shape soon fell onto mine and fiercely, he explored. His tongue joined the party after a while, sending waves of pleasure into my craving system. As his kiss got fiercer and as I managed to keep up with his pace, his grip on my thigh squeezed before sliding a bit upwards to tease me further.“Dominic,” I called softly as his lips went to my neck region. My hands clenched his soft hair. His teeth ground softly on my tender skin and my body writhed in reaction.His hand that was around my nether region was also working on driving me to get the ultimate pleasure as it kept circling every a

    GRACE Just like on several occasions, hearing Kyle’s name triggered something in me, and in a jiffy, I retracted my hand from Mr. Powers’ hold and sat up. I gathered the sheets to my naked body and glared at the man who had just taken me to new heights of pleasure. “Grace...” he called and I held out a cautionary finger as I got out of his bed. “Don’t...” As soon as my feet hit the floor, a huge ball of not-so-necessary realisation hit me and I faced the man with a frown on my face. “Wh...What am I even doing here? I...” I searched for my clothes frantically. “I shouldn’t be here. We... We shouldn’t be doing this.” “Grace...” He sat up, reached for a towel folded at the end of his bed, and wrapped it around his waist once he got to his feet. “Grace, please calm down.” “I can’t calm down. You know I should not be here, I should not be doing this.” My eyes widened with unusual fear as I ranted on while I struggled to keep the sheets around me intact. Seconds after I located my nig

    GRACE Tears began to well in my eyes and I knew that it would be hard for me from that moment on. But according to Jeremy, it was time I got my burdens off my chest. “After two years of dating, Kyle proposed to me. And I still remember his proposal.” I let out a light laugh. “It was sort of cliché, but I loved it anyway because I loved Kyle so much. He proposed just right beside the Empire State Building.” While biting a small portion of my upper lip, I faced Mr. Powers with a teary face and released a sad chuckle while my heart wrenched some more. After I wiped off the waterworks which were bound to show up again, I looked down at the tiles, the tone of my voice heading to a more serious one. “That day... I said yes. I still remember the ring. It was so freaking... beautiful.” My shoulders carried the depression that befell me. “I was happy. Very happy. The happiest I had been in a while. But not for long.” My throat instantly felt heavy. My eyes welled more tears. And I slowly

    GRACE“Okay Ruby,” I leaned closer to ensure that eye contact was maintained, “you have to come clean.” I have to remain stern and show her my seriousness. “Did you eat out of the chocolates?” With puppy eyes, Ruby shook her head. I glanced at the brown smudge on the side of her lips and scoffed in disbelief.“You did not eat out of it,” I uttered, the tone of my voice barely carrying a whiff of inquiry.And she sharply responded with, “No.”“How do you explain this then?” I slammed two wrappers of Snickers chocolate onto the kitchen counter and stared squarely at the little girl whose eyes widened in shock. She started to struggle with finding an explanation but I continued my questioning.“And how do you explain this?” I pulled out a little mirror and placed it in front of her so that she could see that I had irrevocable evidence against her. “So, tell me, Ruby, did you eat the chocolates or not?”“Uh...” Her voice became timid and her eyes evaded mine while I cocked a brow and I aw

    GRACEOnce I ended the call, I tucked my phone into the front pocket of my grey joggers and approached the man who was back from a long day at the office.“Mr. Powers,” I called the man who stood still after a few steps up the stairs, his full attention on his phone. “Mr. Powers?” I raised my voice.The man ignored me. And I scoffed in disbelief as he maintained his focus on his phone.Once I took a few more steps closer to the end of the staircase, I called him again. “Mr. Powers?”I am sure this man can hear me, so why isn’t he responding? “Mr. Powers? Dominic?”“Grace.” He swiftly faced me, a grand smile on his lips. “There you are.” He finally responded and I just had to roll my eyes at his silliness.The man began to walk towards me. As he moved, I admired his exceptional dressing. The light tones of his clothes blended with his skin and I found him more alluring.Once his feet were barely inches away from mine, he asked, “Did you just roll your eyes at me?”“Uh...” I looked up a

    GRACE “Are you and Mr. Powers dating?” I sent a pointed look at the figure that eased his way into the penthouse. “I have seen the tabloids.” “Jeremy, I don’t know what you are talking about.” I chose to deny it because it would be weird for me to talk about my dating life with a man who never ceases to show signs that keeps saying; I am interested in you! “Just hurry, you are late. Ruby doesn’t like it when people waste her time.” “I just wanted to know.” I glared at the complaining man as I pulled his arm and directed him towards Ruby. “Please, I want to know.” Jeremy tilted his head and a small pout grew on his lips. When I stopped moving him, I asked, “Will you stop stylishly trying to hit on me if I answer you?” “Uh... What are you talking about? I don’t hit on you.” I rolled my eyes and resumed pulling him. “Okay, okay!” After three nudges, he swiftly turned to face me. A little crease formed on his forehead and he said, “I will go and teach Ruby.” “And?” I crossed my arms

    GRACE Once our kiss was paused, our foreheads met and our eyes dived into each other’s. While we remained in that position, Dominic reached for my hand which was still resting against his face. He brought it to his lips and began to kiss each finger, the hotness of the contact sending bliss down my spine. His kisses made my heart grow fonder and they spoke his emotions to me. As I interpreted the softness of his kisses in my head, I counted myself lucky that I was the one he chose to create beautiful memories with. “I am still working on getting rid of the tabloids. The articles have become a virus that might take some time to contain.” He kissed my palm then dropped my hand gently while he made our eyes meet again. “What about the guy that came over? He got pictures of me.” “I will have the security team look into it. Enough of all that.” He closed the space between us. His lips brushed mine lightly, I jolted slightly in reaction. “I am going to miss watching you react to my tou

    GRACEWe were all in front of Mr. Powers’ ward and swimming in silence after the doctor informed us that the older man was lucky to have survived the cardiac arrest he suffered.After hearing that, I can only imagine how strong the love he had for her was.But I just hope he is okay at the end of the day. He doesn’t deserve to suffer because a particular person could not make a decision that is befitting a person with sense.A sigh left me and I grabbed Dominic’s hand to continue encouraging him to remain strong."What will happen to the wedding?" Quintin asked.Janet, who already joined us, looked at the clock above us. "It is almost midnight," she stated."We can always reschedule the wedding till Father gets better, " I said since that was the only reasonable thing."Maybe." Janet sighed.After a short silence, Dominic said, "We are getting married tomorrow.""How?"Even others found his statement a bit odd. They carried confusion on their faces."Pops won't be able to attend, Domi

    GRACEA lot of minutes filled with silence passed before I finally said something.While my mind failed to fully imagine the kind of chaos that could be going on in Janet’s mind, I asked, “Does Dominic know?”She shook her head and set the plate aside. "Neither does Pops. And we need to let him know before that woman does something rash. But I am a little scared.” Her breath shuddered, her jaws tightened. “I know this will be harder on Pops and Dominic.”I took steps forward and said, "I'm coming with you.""No.""Come on, Janet. Now is not the time to follow wedding norms. This is an emergency, Janet.”"I just"I cut in. "I can't sit back and talk about makeup and wedding gowns when something this huge is happening."Janet sighed and the next thing I knew, she was holding my hand. With that contact, she led me out of the room while others stared at our backs in slight confusion.As our feet rushed, Janet asked, "How do you think she found out about the wedding? We made sure to keep t

    GRACE“Did you guys plan this on purpose?”“What are you talking about?” I turned to face Tiffany who was heading for the huge closet that came with my suite.“Your wedding is a day before Valentine’s. Did the two of you decide to ditch the official lover’s day?”“I doubt we saw things that way. We just picked a date that seemed fine because we didn’t want to drag things out.”Tiffany smiled. “You two sure are lovebirds.” She dragged out the bag where my wedding gown was resting and I left the dresser and walked to the bed in the middle of the room. “Have you tried your gown since the last time?”"Why? Isn’t it foolish to keep wearing the gown when its moment of service is yet to come?" That question remained on my lips as I grabbed a plate of cake from the food tray that was just delivered to my room.But as I bit in to enjoy the bliss of the pastry, Tiffany gasped and rushed to my side. After snatching the plate to my surprise, she asked, “Why? What do you mean by why? What if you g

    GRACE“So…” It took some strength to stop my eyes from twitching with confusion and slight anger. “All that time, I was speaking with your sister? How did I not notice? How…?”Samantha got up. “How could you have noticed? Sandra always managed to fool our parents. Anyway, I need you to see something. It is the reason I asked us to meet here.”She motioned to a nearby guard and the man led the way until we reached the end of the corridor that branched to our left. My legs felt heavy as we moved, but I pushed myself because I still desired to know the full truth.I also need to find an answer to the part of me that keeps wondering if there’s a chance that the woman with me is Sandra and not Samantha. After all, from what I have heard, Sandra is good at impersonating her sister.At the end of that corridor was a heavily barred room. No doubt, it was a prison and while I tried to figure out who the occupant was, Samantha stepped aside and gave me a full view of the room beyond the bars.T

    GRACEA few hours later, we arrived in Manhattan and I found my way to David’s place. And without wasting time, David drove me to a rarely used state prison yard where I was supposed to meet Samantha… or the person that’s Samantha’s sister.When we arrived at our destination, my eyes carried a certain weary and I became concerned about the next few minutes of that day.“Is she really in there?” I asked David."Yes. Samantha is waiting for you. She is going to explain everything in detail.”“Can’t you just tell me what you know?” My mind could experience a change. I was becoming hesitant and perhaps, I was not ready to face the crazy truth.It seems coming down to Manhattan might be a waste of time."Grace,” David must have sensed me holding back, “you can’t grow cold feet right now. You need to know the truth and you need to know it now.” I darted my sight to him and I was certain that my entire being was screaming silently that I was sacred. “Grace,” his tone softened, “you have come

    GRACE"Okay, Dominic. I think it is your time to wear our traditional sweater," Janet announced as she whipped out the said sweater."Oh no, no." Dominic's voice boomed across the room and for some reason, he reached for my hand as though I was a very strong bodyguard that would ward off preying hands that would force him to wear the sweater. "I am not putting on that hideous thing.""But someone has to wear it every Christmas," Janet pouted and I wondered why anyone would want to wear something that looked and smelt like a disaster.Yes. It is that hideous.It possessed a terrible shade of red that failed to blend with the bright green that sprawled over the chest of the sweater in the form of a potato. Or… Santa Claus? The shape was hard to read.So, I squinted my eyes to attempt figuring out what the sweater was all about.Then, Janet asked, "Grace, do you want to put it on?"I didn’t think. I didn’t hesitate. My hands waved frantically and my lips rushed out a response. “No. No. N

    DOMINIC“What do you think Father wants to say?”Janet shrugged while her focus remained on the last bit of the cookie in her hand. After a deep swallow and some mouth-twitching noise I chose to ignore, she said, “He might just want to appreciate her. What?” One of her brows jerked with a touch of teasing. “Do you think he will try to convince her to leave you?”“Why would he do that?” My frown was very huge. “He wouldn’t dare.”“Relax. I am just joking. Pops would never do that to both of you. Or any of us.”“I know.” I scoffed. “I was joking as well.”Janet shook her head. “You still suck at making jokes. Some things never change.” I smiled at her words. “Hey, brother?” She looked up at me while noise from the living room hit our ears harder.“What is it?”“I shouldn’t have blabbed about the New York thing. I almost ruined things.” Janet was almost mumbling her words. She still doesn’t work well with portraying her feelings when she is in the wrong. “I am sorry.”“You almost ruined

    GRACEChristmas period came within a flash and I discovered that I was especially excited to be going to Dominic’s family house. Perhaps the memories I created in that home were dearer to me than I thought.I wonder if their field of flowers would have a lot of flowers in bloom. I know winter is not so friendly to certain plants. I should take a look anyway. It would be nice to feast my eyes on something beautiful and rare."This place looks peaceful," Ruby commented as she admired every part of the houses we drove past.“Right? Everything is beautiful as well.” Every house and street we drove past carried a touch of celebration decorations and that view made me certain that the whole town would be a great beauty by nighttime.As minutes passed, we became closer to Dominic’s family house and since the route we were taking was quieter, I decided to sit back and enjoy the amazing view.“Daddy, are we going to come here often?” Ruby asked, the joy and enthusiasm in her voice almost conta

    GRACE“I can't believe this man,” I muttered under my breath. “Why did he leave these here?” With anger, I picked up the socks Dominic sprawled all over the floor while he was searching for his special socks.It has been many months since we moved and I still don't understand his infatuation with those socks. I won’t deny the beauty of the black and red material, but the fact he only wears them to huge business partnership meetings makes me dislike his love for the socks. If the socks were that special, he would wear them to our dates as well.But no. He would rather turn the house upside down because of those socks, leaving me to take care of his mess.With a gradually dissolving anger, I approached the drawer where Dominic just disarranged and dumped all the socks without care. He can sort out his mess when he gets back.I turned from the dresser and the image of Dominic comically rushing out of the house to escape my nagging tugged in my mind, causing me to erupt peals of laughter.
