NICHOLAS' POV

I watched her rise to her feet and walk out of my room. Picking up my phone to serve as a distraction so I would not gaze at her as she walked out, I tapped the screen and stared at my wallpaper.

As the door slammed shut behind her, I let out a sigh and stared at the door.

She must be feeling so perplexed about the Keepers and the upcoming party, if only there was something I could do or offer to calm her down.

But that should not be a concern for me, she could handle herself quite well when put to the test so she would have problem fitting in at such fine setting.

There were some unfinished tasks from last night so I decided to distract myself with that. I refused to let my thoughts be distracted by such a stubborn woman.

Picking up my laptop, I went into the living room just to stretch my legs. It was better than staying cramped up in my bedroom all day.

Several minutes later, there were still a few things to be done but I had covered up quite a lot as well. I mig

    REGINA'S POVThe sound of a continuous beeping echoed in my head as I opened my eyes. Looking around me, I realized I was laid down on a bed, a bed that wasn't my own. The usual white of a hospital bedroom stared back at me and I needed no one to tell me where I was. Trying to bring myself to sit up, I felt a sudden sting on my hand and I winced from the pain. Turning to look at it, there was a drip passed through my vein, the needle felt uncomfortable in my skin. I managed to bring myself to sit down, ignoring how heavy it was to carry my own body. The door as it pushed open caused me to look towards the direction and a slender brunette Lady dressed in the usual white of a nurse walked in. She seemed surprised to see me sitting down already. "Oh you're awake!" She said surprisedly. "Hold on, let me get your guardian." She dropped the tray in her hand on a wheeled table and turned around immediately. "Wait, I--" the sound of the door cut me off before I could even utter a word.

    REGINA'S POVI sat there, waiting for him to talk. But all I got was silence. This forced me to ask what had been troubling my mind ever since we left the hospital. "What happened to me? Why did I pass out?" "You have mild ulcer. Were you aware of this before?" His voice was calm as he spoke. I stared st him like he had just said Spanish. "Mild ulcer? How? Are you sure that's what the doctor said I have?" He stared at me without a response. Rising to his feet, he walked into the living room towards the couch where he dropped the package he was holding earlier then returned with it. Placing it on the table between us, he poured a glass of water and placed it in front of me then took out a sachet from the brown package. Taking my hand without my permission-- though I did not try to fight it-- he cut open the sachet and poured some pills into my palm. "Take it." He said without any explanation. I stared at him questioningly. I would not be ingesting something he did not bother to e

    THIRD POV Mary walked about in the walls of her own home, staring at the drafted letter in her hand. It read letter of resignation. In her other hand was a glass of red wine, one of the finest. If she could not afford other things, she ought to afford fine wine. She walked into the living room and took a seat on one of her couches. Staring at the printed letter one more time, she dropped it on the center piece and relaxed into her seat with a sigh. Raising her glass to her lips, she took a sip and played around with the wine in her mouth before flushing it down her throat. Her mind could not help but to wander back to the event that had taken place the night before. She had been commanded to go on her knees to apologize to Regina. Apologize! She scoffed a laugh. She was the one that was supposed to have the upper hand in a situation like that. How could things have taken such a turn so rapidly without any signs or warning? Why was a man like Nicolas Walton taking her side? Why

I am a bigger shot than when we last met, I am now one of the affiliates of the Keepers." My eyes widened even more. "H--how...?" How did he come to hold such a position? Someone like him! "If only they knew the evil things that you did!" He let out a wry chuckle, his dimples crinkling in. His light brown eyes fixed on me and I felt a shiver run down my spine. "What are you going to do? Tell them that I attempted to sleep with you? Who do you think will believe your words over mine? They would just see you as an attention seeking bitch who is trying to tarnish my image." It haunted my soul to know that he was right. No one would believe anything I would have to say against him no matter what. Especially now that he was someone important. His grip around my waist made me feel as stiff as a

    THIRD POV Regina and Julia sat together and discussed about so many things both work related and personal matters. So many times, Regina's focus would break as she would survey the place for Hans evil smile but she was surprised and confused to not find him anywhere. Thankfully, Julia barely noticed it when she lost focus. The woman had never had such a smile on her face for a very long time. Being the prominent figure she was, it was expected of her to always wear a smile on her face. But every single smile was beyond fake. It never came from her heart and never attempted to reach her eyes. On the outside, she was this beautiful and strong woman who looked like she was in her early twenties. Most women her age-- even with all their beauty skin care routine-- looked old enough to be her own mother. Many envied her beauty, her wealth, but what they envied most was her happy marriage. People believed she had the most perfect marriage with her husband, Jeremy Anderson, but people

    THIRD POVRegina summoned her courage and walked up to him, keeping a gentle smile on her face as she acknowledged the young woman he was talking with with a bow of her head. Then she turned to face him, "I am so sorry to disrupt your conversation but I need to talk to you outside for a moment." Nicholas had a gentle smile on his face. He excused himself from the lady's presence and went out of the hall with Regina leading the way. The night cloud had grown grey, the promise of a rain soon to come. The heavy wind pushed the trees to dance around in whichever direction it wanted them to. The moon which was shining brightly before had been clothed in dark stormy clouds, shielding how it shone before. Regina felt the effect of the chill wind on her skin, she shuddered from the cold but managed to stand straight without showing it too much that she was cold. Nicholas though, being as observant as he was, noticed her shudder but decided to remain quite. The look on her face made it

My hands were pressed against his chest, he was soaked from the rain. My eyes fell close, a single tear drop rolled down my cheek. I parted my lips and his tongue slipped in, exploring my mouth. My hands slipped around his neck, greedily pulling him closer to myself. His rich scent filled up my nostrils, filling me with a feeling of ecstasy. His teeth sunk into my lower lip and I moaned into his mouth. The way our bodies pressed together under the heavy downpour of the rain made me want to have more of him. His tender kiss filled my soul with a never ending craving. The more his tongue slipped into my mouth, the more his lips danced with mine, the more hungry I got for him. The way he kissed me, the way he touched me, it made me believe he was just as hungry as I was and no matter how long we k

    Regina’s POVI stood by the restaurant’s entrance, already regretting saying yes to this dinner.The place was too fancy. Too intimate. It wasn’t the “friendly catch-up” Dan promised. It screamed date night.I tugged at the sleeve of my dress, feeling like I didn’t belong.Why did I even come here?Before I could slip away, Dan showed up.Tall. Confident. Wearing that stupid smile he used when he wanted something. I wanted to hear more of what he had said earlier at work. What did he mean by having a meeting with the managing director!“Regina,” he said warmly, like he hadn’t ripped my heart out months ago.I stiffened but forced a cold nod. “Dan.”He acted like nothing had happened. Like he hadn’t humiliated me. Like he hadn’t thrown me aside for Kimberly without blinking.“I’m so happy you came,” he said, reaching for my elbow.I pulled back fast. His smile flickered for half a second, then he pasted it back on.“I almost didn’t,” I said, voice flat. “I’m only here because you said

    Dan's POV I was desperate now.Normally, I always had this special moment I shared with Regina whenever I had just found a new craving. It was a Japanese meal, and the last time I had it was what, when I was like fourteen? Now I was missing her. I decided to take a bold move and make it happen. And I wasn't going to take no for an answer."Are you done now? I want to make a reservation for tonight." I said to one of the attendant in the restaurant I had in mind. "What? Then just do as I've said. What do you mean am I sure this time?"I heaved in a deep sigh, frustrated one at that. It had happened two times now when I would try to speak to Regina, but she would just ignore me. This time, I was determined!"Yes. In the evening." I hoped I had made myself clear enough. The attendant muttered something before saying yes at last.I was standing in front of the building to her office now for about an hour. My car was parked outside so I'd been inside for a while first, before finally step

When would that girl ever learn!"I understand how raged you are now," quickly, Rita started to say. "But you have to be really careful Regina. Kimberly is a psychopath!" I knew what she was saying was the fact. "I know I know. It's just that...what did I ever do to make her hate me like this?""Don't think too much about it, but be careful around her for real." Rita said. You could see the stress in her eyes as she looked worrier for me."Thanks Rita. I'm so glad we get to do this--" my conversation was cut short as the waiters in the restaurant jumped and rushed towards the entrance.One man that looked like their boss was shouting.."Welcome miss Jenna! Our biggest customer. Welcome her." And then the rest began to sing a welcoming song.Rita and I exchanged surprised looks, trying to really wonder whether it was the same Jenna we knew or another one. "But what

    Regina's POV I didn't enjoy this TV series that much, but I was determined to be by myself without involving myself with Nicholas at all. I could do that. It was the weekend already and I was more than enough to..."Fuck!" I sighed, realizing how boring it was just being by myself on the weekend. I needed to go out, but where to?As if she read my mind, my phone rang and I saw it was Rita calling. Rita and I have been...talking. I mean, our relationship couldn't necessarily go back to the way things used to be before...but it was getting better. "Hey girl, I dunno if you're free this weekend. We should hang out sometimes." She said after we'd exchanged warm pleasantries and all."Oh that sounds nice. What about now?" I blurted out. "Now? Do you mean it?" Was her response. We confirmed the outing and met at a casual restaurant where we used to hang out before when we were all friends. Rita was already waiting for me so she called out my name as I walked in. "Over here," she waved

She was forced to ask again to Mary who stood beside her as they watched from upstairs, "What the heck?""Fine. I may have accidentally spilled where you were but I didn't know that she would--"Slap!Mary cried out, holding her cheeks. "I'm sorry!" She cried out. Even Kimberly seemed a bit shocked and just couldn't help herself."I'm just so angry that I'm starting to finally trust you, and you keep dragging her along. You needed to be punished." She said at last.."But we're friends. This is the second time you've hit me this week, what is going on with you, dear friend?" It was more or anger than concern that rested in her eyes. "Whatever. Just let's get over with this now. She said, walking towards the entrance to see her guest. Deep down, she knew she owed Mary some sort of apology. But her pride certainly could not allow it. Her action had caught a side glimpse of Jamie observing her

    Regina's POV The next few days, I wish I could say I didn't enjoy the series of sex that happened between Nicholas and I. They were so casual, in his bedroom, bathroom, in my living room,...even in his car one evening after work! They were fantastic! The other day when he had asked who was calling me when I was in his office, I had doubt for a split second as to tell him it was Dan or not. Then it occurred to me that he had clearly specified that it was none of his business who I was fucking with apart from him.My tone had kept him to quiet down and not ask me again, but we still had the best of time..I was still lost in thought, infactuating on the moments spent with Nicholas when there came a knock on the door. Excitement filled me hurriedly as I rushed to the door. Who else could it be if not Nicholas!"Hi, I'm coming in." Instead, I got Jenna standing outside, now already walking in like we were roommates or something. I had to look around just to make sure that Nicholas real

    Regina's POV The next few minutes, I really was in paradise. We just stood still, staring into each others eyes. I loved this moment and I was selfish enough not wanting to let it end.However the universe had other plans for me. The sudden knock on the door reminded me that we were not alone. We stared into each other's eyes once more, this time briefly. There was no way someone on the other side of the door could be knocking to see me, clearly, they must be Nicholas guest."Is Mike back?" I asked, immediately the idea came to my head. But Nicholas shook his head, almost looking disappointed in my question as he advanced forward to the door. Opening up, Jenna strode in, but she did not just walk in. Her eyes observed, every little details that I wouldn't had noticed.It was a good thing that I had quickly adjusted my bra and put on my panties while Nicholas had gotten dressed back quickly too."I thought I didn't see you since. I never would have figured out that you were back in y

    Nicholas POVShe nodded, her eyes filling with excitement. It was easy unbuttoning the rest of the buttons, and soon, she had been stripped into her bra alone. The sight of her cleavages made me hard instantly. I didn't bother to undo her bra strap and instead, revealed the pointed hard nipples by carefully unveiling her boobs from her bra. Starting with her left nipples, I gently played around the tips, licking around before putting it all in my mouth to suck. It felt so good I didn't want to stop. From her ragged breath, I knew she didn't want me to either. Her hands moved around my body, wanting to undress me instantly. While moving on to the next boobs, I put my other hand in motion parting her legs more widely to locate her pussy. She let her body relax more, waiting for my fingers inside her. Her moans increased, and so did her will to take of my shirt. Stealing glances of her, the look on her face completely made a soft groan escape my lips. She looked completely filled with

    Nicholas's POV The footstep of someone approaching quickly pulled us apart. I was fascinated by what had just happened, the kiss was exactly what I'd been craving for. She looked a lot relieved as well, like this was something she had been struggling with too. This prompted me to go ahead and ask about my offer. Her eyes made contact with mine for a while before she pulled away. Did this mean she rejected the offer? "What about the customer? The annoying Italian man looked like he was powerful and influential." Instead she said, completely ignoring my question. She did this a lot, and I couldn't explain it's effect on me. Still, I managed a cool composure as I responded. "Mike will take care of it. I'll text him and he'll get on it. This isn't the first time I've had to deal with people like him." She nodded to herself, then a smile began to form on her face. Lord knows what she was thinking about. "What is it?" I was prompted to ask. Her smile brightened again. "If that's
