Chapter eleven (date with Tyler)
Sapphire's Point Of View: “It seems it's time to open those legs for your fiance.” He whispered coldly. I shook my head. “No, no, no. You can't do that! You can't force me to have sex with you when I'm not willing to. First thing tomorrow, we go meet your lawyer to erase that from the papers. It's a contract, it should be no sex instead. I'm not cheating with my boyfriend again.”. "Your boyfriend or your fiance, who is more important.". I sighed, squeezing my eyes shut. “Don't get into my head. I am not letting you have sex with me.”. "And if I say no?”. "I can sue you for sexual assault, don't play silly games with me.” I said, wondering where I got such courage from. But yeah, I might have had sex with him before or allowed other shit but I wasn't myself then. I'm Sapphire, a baddie and I will not let a man use me like a slut like his other ladies. I grabbed my bag, “I'm sorry, sir. This meeting is going in a wild direction and I'm sorry but I have to leave now. We can have the meeting tomorrow.”. I got up without waiting for him to speak then left. I didn't need his words, all I needed was to leave. ~ I finally arrived home after a long hour of gridlock. Mum was home as usual of course. She complained about me arriving late but I didn't reply to all her ranting. We were eating dinner when my phone received a call from an unknown number. The same number from last night- the mysterious man I met at the warehouse. I answered the call, swallowing hard on the chewed peas in my mouth. “Hey." I greeted casually. "This is your last chance to change your mind, if you don't then you should prepare your mind for an everlasting regret later on.” He said slyly from the other end. I was feeling peevish tonight after Landon's taunts and I wasn't in for any crap so I simply replied, “Why are you posing yourself as the good guy? Why are you so interested in me and why do you want to SAVE me?”. "I'm Landon's business rival and he's using you as a pawn, wouldn't it be a great idea to join an alliance with his pawn to make the biggest comeback?”. "mhmmm….. so?" I asked. “This is your last chance to choose this path. I know what Landon wants from you but I won't disclose that until you decide to join me on this side.”. "And how does his business RIVAL know his secrets?”I scoffed. “We once were best friends. Landon's a traitor. He betrayed me and I won't stop until I get my revenge and watch him hit rock bottom.” He verbalized. "Uhhh…..permit me to say this… " I paused, “I am not interested. Leave me be with Landon. You can plan your comeback alone, no one fucking cares about you and your stupid comeback, it doesn't matter, it won't matter, you don't matter and you won't matter!”. I then ended the call and blocked the number immediately. First of all, rude. But chill, chill, don't blame me. Blame Landon for making me peevish. “Who was that?" Mum asked. I shot her the scowl that soothed her perfectly and she immediately minded her business without uttering another word. ~ It was finally Saturday, a day I could rest. I planned on resting throughout but that was when I received a call from Tyler. “Hey, babe." I groaned, letting out a sigh. “Hey. Sup." His voice sounded so bright and enthusiastic. “I’m good, I'm good. And you?” I asked back, raising my body from the bed to rest my back against the headboard. “Same. Busy?". “Nope. Not really. It's Saturday, remember?". "Oh, yeah, it is. Can we go on a date in a coffee shop? It's been a while since we hung out so I'll come pick you up in ten.”. A smile found its way to my face and although I was tired, I would gladly go on a date with Tyler, it's been about a whole week I've been stuck with Landon at work and our wedding would be next week so I wanted to have my best memories with Tyler even if it would be the last. I really hoped he would understand and these memories won't be the last. I really loved Tyler. He's the person I love the most currently in my life, not even my mother. I quickly got up from bed and grabbed a casual outfit; a black sweat pants with white tank top and black short denim jean jacket that was a bit shorter than the tank top. Tadaaa….adore my slender figure! “Honey, Tyler is here!!" I heard Mum's voice from the living room. I quickly brushed my hair and let it cascade down my shoulder before pulling on my white Lanhard Luxe sneakers(that I got from Landon for free) and grabbing a black mini-purse. I ran down the stairs, skipping one at each step I took.Chapter eleven(who's that?)Sapphire's Point Of View:I walked into his spread arms, grinning as I inhaled his astonishing aroma.“Babe." I called, dissolving in his arms. He planted a kiss on top of my head, “Yes, honey. I know you miss me. I know you do, darling. I miss you as well.”.His words made my smile become wilder.“Love birds!" Mum's voice interrupted from behind me. Of course, as usual, the fun killer.I broke the hug, turning to face her. I let out a scoff before turning to Tyler again.He gave Mum a small smile before stretching forth his arm for me. I linked arms with him, following his lead to the exit.We soon arrived at a coffee shop, settling at our table. We both got a cup of coffee each, drinking slowly as we stared at each other, waiting for one of us to say something.Tyler cleared his throat before finally breaking the silence, “I really missed you and I wanted to hang out with you but the predominant reason I asked you to hang out with me, Sapphire, is general
Chapter 12(gala)Sapphire's Point Of View:“Who’s that?” he asked.“Who?" I asked before pressing my lips into a thin line, hoping it wasn't what it seemed to be.“Who?" He asked me back.The cat got my tongue. “It's Tiara." I lied, faking a smile.“Your fiance?" He said.My smile wavered, "I…it's just a little game we're playing and I was dared to do that. Don't bother, you trust me right? I don't become a lesbian, Tyler.”."Oh. I see. You should call her then. She seems to need you. Call her, I'd also love to speak with her. It's been a while you know and besides, I didn't send her greetings on her birthday.” He spoke.I pressed my lips into a thin line again, grabbing my phone from the table before opening Landon's text.'Where are you? Can we go on a date?’ I saw his message.'No, fiance. I'm on a date with my boyfriend. Besides, those fake feelings should also go on holiday on weekends, please. You just got me in trouble.’.I waited for a while then he replied, 'We'll be attendin
Chapter fourteen (it's over)Sapphire's Point of view:'BAM!’ My head hit against the airbag. I breathed heavily, raising my gaze as I pushed back the airbag. “Are you okay?!" Tyler asked. I nodded, sighing.I returned my gaze to the front of the car, luckily for us, our car didn't hit the truck. We were safe. The airbag only came out due to the sharp brakes.Pedestrians were on the road side, staring in shock.I heard a knock on the window of the car. I slowly rolled it down as I saw two cops looking in through the window.I raked my fingers through my hair, making the scattered strands slick back.“Sir, ma'am. We're sorry, but sir, License and registration, please. Do you know why we're here?"“Yes, cop, we understand. We were chasing a car. We're sorry, it'll never happen again.” I apologized.The second cop took over, "Chasing a car? At that speed? You're lucky you didn't collide with that truck. You were doing 80 in a 40 zone."."Officer, it-”.Tyler cut me off, "I know, officer
Chapter fifteen(The ride)Sapphire's Point Of View:My heart squeezed in my chest.“It's over.” He stated.What?!"Tyler? Really? Just a little misunderstanding and you're ending a four year relationship?!” I raised my voice.He didn't respond or spare me a glance.“I should have known. I made a big mistake. How did I even expect such a pretender to put a ring on this finger? I wasted precious years of my life with you and I now regret every second!” I spat. He still didn't respond. I grabbed my bag and exited the car.“Are you going with me to the fucking gala or not?!" He shouted.Fucking fuck him!As I walked down the road, fighting back my tears, I could still feel his eyes on me but I didn't bother looking back, I didn't want him to realize I actually still cared.A midnight blue car slowed down by my side as I walked, ignoring it.“Hey there, pretty. Need a ride?" I heard a guy's voice from inside the car.I didn't bother looking at his face as I didn't want him to notice my te
Chapter one(the night stand) Sapphire's Point Of View:“Drink up, Girl. It's my birthday!" Tiara, my best friend, shouted, her voice barely heard as the music was blasting from the speakers loudly. I nodded, clashing my glass against hers. I gulped it before letting out a sigh as it burned down my throat. She poured me another shot and was pouring hers when she immediately halted. She beat my arm repeatedly as her gaze was fixed behind me, her jaw hanging in the air. I slapped her hand off me before turning my neck, only to see three guys stepping in. They were triplets and I needn't lie, they were absolutely hot but not just my type. They seemed like the arrogant type which was exactly what I hated. “Oh. My. God!" Tiara squealed, getting a groan from me. I returned my gaze back to her, rolling my eyes. "Don't tell me you're drooling over these ones again. You literally crush on every single guy you set your eyes on! Know your worth and stop chasing these roaches!” I shoute
Chapter two(Get married)Sapphire's Point Of View:“Where are you at?" His question made my heart skip a beat.“I…went to get something.”I lied."Oh. I see. I'm at your house now and I didn't find you. Your mum said she hasn't seen you since last night.” He replied.I waved at a taxi and he stopped before me. I stepped in.“Uhh….yeah, yeah. I was at Tiara's birthday party. I lodged into the hotel last night since it was too late to return home. But I'm heading home, I stopped to get something on my way home.”I lied again."Sure. I'll be waiting.” He responded."No, no. You actually don't have to wait for me. I'll take quite a long time before I return. Besides, you should be at work, shouldn't you?”,“Oh. Okay then, see you tonight, okay? And get home safe, your mum is worried sick.” He said."Sure. No problem. Thank you.”,"Bye. Love you.”.I blushed, "I love you more.”.Did I really? Did I actually love him? I just lied to him twice and I just slept with a man, a stranger at that. A
Chapter three(intertwined with the CEO)Sapphire's Point Of View:A sharp gasp escaped my lips in shock as mum's voice came from behind.“What are you doing here?" She asked. I turned immediately, closing the file.“I- you left your door open…” I stuttered."thanks.” She said, I left the room immediately. My phone rang with a notification. I took it out and saw a message from MI AMOR.I read, 'Hey, Sapphire. You acted a bit off today, are you okay? You can always talk to me. Love you.’.My heart jumped as I read the content of the text. I took deep breaths before replying, ‘Nothing, babe. Thank you. Love you too.’.~“Oh. My. God! Yes!!" I screamed as I read the email.'Hello there, we hope this email finds you well. After much consideration and deliberation, we're pleased to announce to you that you successfully secured the job with us. You are to resume work by 8am, March 1st. The location is below:’My heart skipped a beat at the date. That was today! Crap, I saw the email late. It
Chapter four(sex with a stranger) Landon's Point Of View: I rose up quietly, searching for the sheets, only to notice that bitch had left the hotel. I planned on having another round with her today but she left. Last night was amazing, that bitch wasn't so skilled but she made me feel what really great, the way I never felt with other ladies probably because this was my first time not using a condom. She seemed to be drunk last night which was an extra bonus for me, I did things to her, things that made me feel guilty of attempted murder. My phone rang as I got into my car. “Drive," I ordered the chauffeur who nodded before starting the engine. I answered the call. “Hey, Kai.". He replied, “Hey. Meet me at that popular bar. What's it called? Yeah, liquor bar.”. "It's too early to be at the bar.”. “I know you're mad at me. But just meet me there,”he said before ending the call. "Liquor bar.”I said to my chauffeur. He took a sharp left turn immediately. I arrived
