Brienne“That BITCH.”Curses left my lips as I drove through the streets. I wanted to rage and destroy shit just to make myself better, but I couldn't. Thinking of her face alone filled me with so much rage already. Sucking in a breath I closed my eyes.“Calm down Brienne.” I muttered to myself. This was not the time to be so riled up.So what if she knew or suspected anything? Whether it had anything to do with what happened two days ago or back then, There was nothing she could do.I forced myself to calm down, focusing on driving to my destination to meet HIM.My nose wrinkled as I spotted the building I was looking for. The place he'd reserved wasn't one of our usual spots, less luxurious but I wasn't gonna to complain so long as it fit the bill. He knew my bottom line requirements. So long as the place was covert enough and had as much class to suit my taste, it was enough.This place fit the bill, at least from the outside. The place was at the edge of the city and it looked is

BrienneI leaned in to kiss him, moaning a bit too exaggeratedly as he soon took charge moving himself over me. This time I actually rolled my eyes. It was okay though, Geoffery wouldn't notice a thing.Despite having fun with him for years, there was no way in hell I was going to let anyone find out and break my engagement. I could and would never marry Geoffrey. Geoffrey was funny when he wanted to be, average in bed and he kicked up a good entertainment when he wanted to, helping me with our ‘gamed’ and plans, but he was also incredibly wild, reckless and a wastrel, spending his money on gambling and extravagance. He had nothing to show for himself yet wondered why the hell he couldn't compare to Viktor.Viktor was a thousand times more superior to Geoffrey in every way. Handsome, charismatic and hot. Geoffrey liked to think himself a savant in bed, but it was nothing compared to how absolutely generous a lover Viktor was. Most of all was his position. As the heir to the RFC, he wa

EvaTWO WEEKS LATER “So these are all that's left?” I asked.“Yes.” Camille, one of the workers in Reynolds Corps and my acting temporary assistant nodded, passing the document to me.I looked down at the document, a strange feeling coming upon me as I roved over it, looking for any mistakes.There were none. Looking over it for one final time I swallowed thickly.Four weeks. A full month of working, of sharing my time between here and my company, bearing everything that took place in the past. All of it had culminated into this.Every process and change regarding the merger was done. I had done my part to the best of my abilities and completed my work to ensure the merger went smoothly. Now it was going to be in Jon's hands as it originally should have been and all that was left was for an official announcement of the partnership to be made public.This was it. This was the end of my stay here.Tearing my gaze away from the document I looked up at her, giving her a tight smile.“Tha

Eva“Cheers!”The clinking of glasses filled the room alongside raucous noises and laughter. I smiled, my chest as warm as the lights illuminating us.The ending of my work in Reynolds Corps demanded a celebration for the employees on my floor and I was nothing but a generous boss. For the celebration I took everyone on my floor for a dinner celebration. Including Jonathan.He'd come to my office not long after I arrived back from Reynolds headquarters to ‘congratulate’ me personally— the congratulations which included a slew of kisses and compliments that nearly made my heart burst. After our make out session, I told him of my plans to take the entire floor to dinner and he desired to join. I was shocked and wary of the idea. His constant visits to my office were already an item of question. That the CEO himself came over to celebrate with us would be a hot topic amongst them.I was more than aware of the gossip between them, some wondering how I'd gotten to a high position at such

Eva News was normal. The press was normal, as essential as breathing air and with enough skills, an advantage. Whether in entertainment or business or simply about the mundane happenings of life, it was nothing new. It was NORMAL. But for the first time in my entire life, my heart raced painfully in my chest. This wasn't any normal news. It was gossip. A scandalous news. And it was about ME. It took reading it the first time to comprehend, yet it took the next two tries of tracing over the headlines for it to sink in. The headline was simple and direct. ‘TALES OF A SOCIAL CLIMBER: THE RISE OF EVA GREENE’ Despite S. Corps sudden rise and Jonathan's popularity, nobody put themselves in the spotlight. It was an important rule in business. My name could be easily overlooked amongst other big names, but the main question was how it even got here in the first place. I scrolled down, reading through the article. They completely eviscerated my past, barely touching my past by s

Eva My breath hitched as he cut me off. Suddenly everything stopped, the rushing feeling in my ears stilling to nothing. “You…what?” I shook my head, unable to believe it. Was it just my imagination? He'd said…he believed me? I stood in place as he stepped towards me. “I believe you Eva. I've known you for the past six years haven't I?” He asked, taking another step closer. “I've seen how willing you are to put in the hard work. I've seen how you refused to ask for help, afraid and eager to prove yourself. I've seen your quick wut, how you adapt so quickly and grow, gain confidence and beat others in their game.” he said. As he spoke, I found nothing but sincerity in his eyes, a small smile written on his face. “I've seen tasks thrown your way, some of them I did myself and yet you proved yourself each and every time, making me fall for you with every win. I saw you overcome difficulties despite the scars in your hearts to get to where you are now.” Another step. He

EvaHalf an hour later, the entire apartment was dead silent. After resolving to tell him, we had moved from the floor to the couch of the living room. There I explained everything that went on in the past and what happened now. Viktor's infidelity, kicking me out and everything that happened while he'd traveled, leaving the deal to me.Almost everything. I couldn't bring up Viktors insults, threats and attempts to corner me. Not when I knew he wouldn't take it well. Now that all was said, I remained silent as I looked at him, waiting for him to finally speak. He sat in one place, the stillness in his body and face akin to that of a statue. Under the lights illuminating his sharp cheekbones and deep blue eyes, he almost looked like one. I couldn't focus too much on his appearance however with the anxiety swirling in me.He didn't look angry at all, his face neutral to the point that I couldn't identify any actual emotion. Goodness knew what he was thinking right now.The air seemed

Was it so out of reach to think she would do this to me? Definitely not.Yet there were still little doubts. Two weeks had passed. Two weeks without any trouble. I hadn't seen or neared her, letting go of any suspicions of the past. Why would she suddenly spring up and hurt me? Was it my suspicions of her that day that led her ? Was this planned? Did she do it alone?Was I thinking too much?“You need to sleep.” Jon said, his voice springing me out of my thoughts. I looked up as his hand cupped my cheek.“You've had a long day. You need to rest. Don't bother coming to work tomorrow and stay inside as much as you can. Log off all social media too. I don't want you getting hurt.”It all made sense. I nodded, savoring his kiss to my forehead. Panic slipped in as he pulled away from our embrace.He was leaving? I swallowed thickly.I knew it was necessary for him to actually follow his word and yet…Before he could stand up I stopped him, holding his wrist.“Don't leave. Not yet.” I rush

ONE MONTH LATEREva“When are you coming back?” I asked, rifling through clothes as frustration brewed up in me.“Soon.” Jon’s voice rang through terse and neutral. It made my brows furrow.“So, in a week? Cory and Anthea miss you.” I said, trying to ignore the coldness in his tone.“I…Eva I don’t know yet.” His words gave me whiplash, making me flinch.“Okay.” I said.Frustration brewed inside me but I kept silent.The moment the call ended I dropped the phone like a dead weight, clenching and unclenching my arms for control. What the hell? This wasn’t the first time, at least not within this month.After telling him of my decision to include Viktor and Grace into the children’s lives the day I'd made the decision, he was completely supportive. I still sensed displeasure, however no matter how much I tried to assure him, he said that it was fine. Although he was never present while Viktor and Grace were around, he still looked well.It happened so gradually. At first he wasn’t pr

EvaI was completely frozen under the scrutiny of my best friend’s stare as she flickered between us. Even if he wasn't touching me like before, his closeness was suspicious enough.For a moment everything was still…until the moment the twins slipped out beside her.“Mom!” they chorused and my gaze shifted to their innocent smiles. Without he's they rushed to greet me and I pushed my panic away, forcing a smile. “Hey, babies. Did you enjoy your time at Aunt Penelope?” I hugged them, ruffling their hair to make them giggle and nod in agreement. Looking back up to face Penelope felt sheepish. Her expression said plenty, a mix of disbelief and recognition. I could hear her unsaid words without thinking.I tried to pass a pleading one of my own to tell her that I'd explain after this. “Mom?” I tore my eyes away to meet Anthea’s stare but she wasn't looking at me but behind me, no doubt at Viktor.‘Oh,’ I quickly stood up, looking at him before turning back to the children.“You…you re

82EvaThe doorbell rang. I was ready, sucking in a breath before standing up.I tampered down any impulse to clean aside anything within the room more than necessary despite the urge to hide it away. He needed to see the reality of their natural environment.Passing by the strewn toys I left alone made me think back to Cory and Anthea.A swift call from them moved the sleepover Penelope spent with them to them staying with her for the entire day while I sorted things out. It was already evening and they were still with her. Considering it was evening she was no doubt also on her way to my home.She wasn't the one standing by the door at the moment however.I forced myself to relax before opening the door, his cerulean eyes meeting mine immediately.“Hi,” Viktor said.The air felt awkward yet I let him slip inside, murmuring a greeting before stepping back. He looked overwhelmed as he looked around and I couldn't blame him when I was the same way.If it wasn't for what happened earli

EvaI worked up to darkness and dim lighting engulfing me. My eyes felt heavy and my body ached but the smell of food woke me up further.It didn't take long for the past memories and pain to seep in. Swallowing hoarsely, I nearly broke down in tears again until“You're awake,”Jon's voice jolted me. I looked up to find him moving towards me, a plate in his hand along with the familiar aroma of pasta.Sitting up, I tried to smile when he reached. “Are you okay now?” He asked,“Yeah,” I nodded my voice hoarse from unuse.After crying for so long, I didn't know when I just…passed out. But looking around I was sure that a few hours had passed.I should have considered it a relief compared to holding it in, but looking at him only made more guilt swell into me.“I shouldn't have…I'm sorry for coming here unannounced.” I shifted uncomfortably. “It's okay.” Was all he said.“I'm sorry,” my voice cracked as I spoke. Even still I shouldn't have to use him as a crutch.“What happened? Or is

Viktor The drive back to the mansion was silent with the tension so thick yet non-existent at the same time. I spied glances at her on the passenger’s seat throughout and every time, she was simply looking at the window, looking deceitfully calm. It sent a different trill of fear through me, especially when I knew she was anything but. After Eve left, she hadn't said a word since. I comforted her the best I could, letting her sob in my arms. Moments after her tears were gone, she hadn't saud a word. I was the one to suggest that we left and she silently nodded following me. The sight of her reddish eyelids despite the calm facade gutted me. Id never seen my mother that angry, that sad. And this time, it wasn't focused on me. My grip on the steering wheel tightened. If the feeling from seeing my mother cry hurt, then the ache was twice as bad when I saw Eva crumble right in front of me. In the few times I'd seen her, Eva had never failed to show her strength, even months ago when

EvaMy heart raced as I reached the door leading into the cafe.My words the day before were like a fever dream. It wasn't until hours later when night had fallen that doubts and panic of what I'd done began creeping in.It was still the weekend and Penelope had snatched the children away to play for the day. Jon had left to the penthouse leaving me wearing down the floor of my room alone.‘I should have waited a little longer. I wasn't prepared yet. Why did I say that?’ doubts filled my thoughts. I’d made that declaration still high on the feeling of reciprocation, to equal his determination. It was cowardly yet I was second guessing everything. ‘Maybe he hadn't told her. Maybe he would postpone it.’ All the possibilities that he wouldn't take me on my word reared its head and for a moment I nearly deluded myself into thinking that it wouldn't happen. The text I'd gotten twenty minutes after rid those thoughts away. ‘‘We’re on our way to the cafe.’’ he said.The ticking time I

Eva“Is he going to still keep us waiting?”“Jon,” my voice came out harsher than I expected, but it was rightfully so. Jon looked trite immediately. He looked away and set his jaw, making me deflate instantly. Out of all the words I could use to describe Jonathan, insufferable wasn't on the list yet it seemed that way now more than ever. I couldn't blame him for how he's been reacting though.It was my fault for making the decision so abruptly, especially when I had so confidently told him that I wouldn't let Viktor into their lives. Despite his attempt to be supportive he hadn't expected me to go through with it, hence his reaction now It had taken a day to come to terms with my decision and another day to muster up the courage to tell Jon. It took a few days more for us to talk about it.He was far from happy once I told him my decision but he'd accepted it, or claimed to at least. Despite his veiled irritation and his attempt to pick on things, he was still here for me. For all

Viktor “Did something happen?” My mother asked, her worried tone filtering through the phone. I smiled even if she couldn't see it, trying to muster.“Nothing bad happened mom. It's just some extra documents to sort out in the office. I'll be coming home later than normal is all.” I said. It wasn't necessarily a lie, yet it still sent a sliver of guilt to me that I would miss dinner with her. I didn't want any setbacks on the relationship we were rebuilding.The anxiety eased as she sighed,“Okay…” my mother trailed off, “Don't forget to eat.”“I won't,” I quickly assured her, “I love you mom.”Despite time and efforts bringing us closer I was still half expecting her to hesitate and not day it at all. It made it all the more relieving when she chuckled.“Love you too.” she said and the call ended. Putting my phone down I turned to the empty street from my office window. Only a few hours ago, I was recieving what felt like the best and worst news of my life.A part of me still couldn

EvaI entered the cafe booked for this meeting. It was a new place, unfamiliar to me unlike my regular spot with Penelope’s Cafe or the growing familiarity of the Greenhouse cafe. It was exactly what I wanted for this occasion.I needed a neutral spot, free from any influence to meet him. This time, we were on equal grounds.“Good day, what's your order?” The unfamiliar waitress smiled at me. I ordered a random pastry and some water to pass the time. I wasn't planning on staying for long.The noises around helped keep me calm but I kept on questioning if this was the right thing to do.‘We’ll see,’ I told myself.The door opened and this time I looked up to meet a familiar face..he was right on time.Viktor entered the cafe, looking around. I silently nodded the moment he spotted me, waiting with bated breath.Less than a few days ago I'd finally solved the conflict brewing in my mind with a single call to the RCF office. They recognized me and amidst my issues, forwarded my call to h
