ALVIRA’S POV“Yes, sweets?”“Um, I wanted to ask you something…..” I muttered, fiddling with the hem of my top as I looked down at the floor. He was not here but I could still feel the intensity of his stares and felt intimidated by it. It was like he could see right through me. Like he could see deep inside of me, into my heart and see my feelings and thoughts and secrets. “Sweets, you are going to have to be louder than that if you need me to actually hear what it is that you are saying. I can barely hear you. What did I say about speaking to myself?” He asked, his tone stern as though he was scolding a four year old child. “I- I -I’m sorry.” I murmured. I felt tears welling up in my eyes. I did not like being scolded. I know I should be stronger than this but sometimes, it’s just so hard to be strong. Besides, it’s Carter. I don’t know how to be strong around him. I always felt like a child around him. Safe. “What was that?” He asked, his tone still stern like a parent talking

ALVIRA’S povI stared blankly into space as I struggled to focus on the online class that I was currently participating in to no avail. My attempt was greatly futile. I sighed inaudibly as my mind kept drifting back to the last time that Carter and I hung out.I had been unable to sleep the entire night and he had come over to see me at my place. I had not even been expecting to see him.Apparently, he had had other plans other than just coming over for us to talk, plans that I knew but did not want to speak about.I remembered standing in front of my mirror, staring at myself while adjusting my hair for what felt like the hundredth time. I had spent the entire day thinking about my life and the one I was going to have with Carter, a man that I had met on my first night working as a waitress in a nightclub.He was no doubt charming and sweet. He always had a smile that made my stomach flutter with butterflies. But I knew that he was no ordinary man. He would also have a dark side to h

CARTER'S POV I was treading on very thin ice and I knew it. I knew that it was just a matter of time before it would all blow up on my rather handsome face. I know that all these shenanigans with Alvira were just a ploy only to gain my father’s trust, his approval and to quickly get back my inheritance. And I was so hell-bent on making sure that it would be what eventually happens. There were not supposed to be any real feelings or strings attached between the both of us, if only she knew. She was just a mere pawn in the game. She was quite unfortunate enough to be caught in the crossfire between my dad and I, and that was all that it entailed. There was really nothing more and nothing less.So why? Why did all of this thought leave a bitter taste in my mouth? Why do I continually feel like I have been stung by a million bees? And why does my heart feel heavier, weighing me down the longer I thought of just how broken she was going to be when the time would come for me to finally

CARTER'S POV I am still not sure how I got here. I was deeply stuck in conflict. I did not plan on this. Hell! I didn't even know it was happening until it was already too late. But now, here I was, completely stuck in a web of feelings that I could not untangle. Everything, it was all because of her. I needed to do something about her and I needed to do whatever it was swiftly. My father was going to be so pleased if he found out that I could not complete this one small task. I could already see him smirking at me with that evil glint in his mischievous eyes. He would be so gay with glee that he was correct about me being useless, me picking the wrong girl and me developing feelings for her on the mission.However, the thing was that I could not even decide whether I wanted to keep my distance from her or get closer to her. A part of me wanted to run in the opposite direction the second that she would walk into the room. But then she would say something to me or look at me in the

ALVIRA’S pov It has been about a week since I had spoken to Carter. Somehow, we had both been busy to have any spare time for ourselves due to our busy schedules. He had a lot of work that he needed to tend to according to him and I, on the other hand, was stuck to my neck with loads and loads of homework and essays. The exams were fast approaching and I needed to get back on track and finish up my work before the deadlines were up if I was to make it in time for my exams. However, between my increasing school hours and his ever growing tight schedule, we had found a way to keep in touch. Carter would always wake me up with a morning text and I would respond whenever I got up from bed. During the day, we would randomly text each other, going back and forth between our schedules. It was not much but it was enough to keep him going. At night we would have short conversations where we spoke to each other about our day and I would find myself falling asleep. Carter had been very sup

ALVIRA’S POVOnce again, Clarissa falls asleep mid way into the movie. I let out a soft chuckle as I tidied up, listening to get soft snores. I quickly but quietly packed up the bowls of popcorn and arranged the sitting room while making sure I didn’t wake her up. She was a light sleeper and the slightest noise would wake her up. I busied myself with washing the dishes and cleaning up the mess we had left earlier on. Yep, Clarissa and I had a funny habit of leaving our kitchen mess up after we finished cooking or making a snack and would only go back to clean it up after we were done eating. I took out the trash and cleared out the cabinets, unconsciously cleaning up the whole kitchen and dining area. Deep down, I know it was all just a way to distract myself from the myriad of thoughts running through my head. ‘Rissa’s question kept ringing in my head and I struggled to find a suitable answer for it. To an extent, I knew I was comfortable with my relationship with Carter and the p

ALVIRA’S POV“No,” I said a little too forcefully. I didn't want him to think that I was not interested in that.“Good," he said with another smirk. "Now, I would like to take my girlfriend out to a nice place to eat and chill for a while. Come on.” He said, guiding me to the passenger side of the car and guiding me in. As usual, he buckled me in and closed the door before walking around to his side behind the wheel. “Um, where are we going tonight?” I asked. “We are going to one of the finest restaurants in the city and perhaps, in the whole of the country, and I know this because it’s mine.” He said, a smirk on his face as he drove with one hand on the steering and the other on my lap. A few months ago, I would normally be avoiding me and keeping to myself all through. I would even have a panic attack whenever he got so close to me, not to talk of when he would touch me. I found myself getting comfortable enough around him to allow certain touches from him like this one. It was

CARTER’S POVLife was good. Or at least, that is how it seemed to me. I was enjoying life with my girlfriend, and for once in a long time, I found myself looking forward to meeting her and just being around her. She was like an escape from the chaos that was my life. I found myself unconsciously looking over at the time until when I could go over to see her and just do mundane things like going for walks, playing on a swing, taking ice cream, watching the sunset and other random flimsy things that she would always come up with. I would never admit it to anyone else but I really enjoy our time together. I still can not categorically explain what it is that I feel for her but I know that I care about her more than my brain would dare to admit. She is there when I woke up, she stays with me while I go about my day, and she is there when I go back to bed. I do not know how we got to this stage but I found myself comparing every other lady I meet to her. I keep asking myself what was so

ALVIRA’S POV“Miss? Miss?”“Maam?” Jane said, touching me and breaking out of my thoughts. I looked around, realizing that I had zoned out again. I shook my head, embarrassed as I noticed all eyes on me. “Ma’am, is everything alright?” Jane asked in a quiet voice. “Huh? Yeah. Um, sorry, I just zoned out for a second. What were we talking about?” I asked. “We were asking if you had any questions on the subject, ma.” Jane said. I blinked. I had no idea what subject they were even referring to. “Oh! Okay, um, let me see.” I flipped open my notebook, skimming through the pages for anything that I could ask only to come up short. I raised my head, seeing their expectant faces and I immediately felt bad. “You know what? How about we adjourn this meeting, yes? I’m so sorry but I just have a lot on my plate right now. I am really sorry.” I apologized. “Of course ma. Whenever you’re ready.” She replied, smiling. “Ladies, gentlemen, we will meet again next week to continue our review
Billionaire's Dark Desire Chapter 96
CARTER’S POVI stood by the bleachers watching as the players practiced. The playoffs were in a week and the tension was high as they played, going over the same routines over and over. One particular player stood out, holding my attention for more than half of the time I stood there. He was the man that now held Alvira's heart. The past month has been with me constantly trying to get her to forgive me and speak to me and every single time, I was met with a brick wall. But I was not going to give up anytime soon. I was going to keep up until I knew that she had finally forgiven me. I have already come to terms with the fact that she can never be mine again. I mean, I blew up any other chances myself when I broke her heart. The new private investigator I hired had told me of her relationship with the man and how she spent every Sunday evening at their family house for dinner. It tore at my heart that I could not be the one to provide her with the love and care that she had always
Billionaire's Dark Desire Chapter 95
ALVIRA’S POVHow could he have possibly found me? Oh my God, help me!I could barely sleep for days. Seeing Carter for the first time since that unfortunate night had brought back a flurry of emotions. I did not know how to feel or react and somehow ended up having a panic attack. I was grateful that Clarissa had been there to help me or I would have passed out. I could no longer focus at work or anywhere. I would find myself zoning out just thinking about him. He had not aged a bit ever since. He still looked as handsome as he was when he broke my heart. He had also grown out his beards just a little bit. Exactly how I liked it. But it was too late to think about that now. It has been a week and a few days since he showed up back in my life and I hate to admit that I have not stopped thinking about him. Truth is, I never stopped thinking about him. One doesn’t just forget about one’s first love. How could I? He was my first in so many ways, I had made so many memories with him and

CARTER’S POVGod, she was breathtaking.“Hello, Alvira. Where have you been? I have been looking everywhere for you.” I started.I looked at her, she looked like a breath of fresh air in the busy streets of New York. I could not stop looking at her. She had gotten even prettier, she looked plumper in all the right places and my God, did she look delicious. It felt like it was just us two in the world and all I could do was continue to look at her like my life depended on it. Oh! What a relief to finally set my eyes on her. I have been looking for her for ages and here she was, standing in front of me, looking just as radiant as she did a year ago, if not more in her simple but elegant outfit.She was dressed in a simple plaid shirt and plain grey pants, the outfit holding just the right parts of her. Her hair was in a sleek ponytail and she had some cute fancy hair pins to hold off extra strands or just to accessorize, I could not tell but they looked gorgeous on her all the same.I

ALVIRA’S POV“These are the files you requested for ma'am. I also added the due diligence report you asked for and dropped some of my notes for you.” Jane, my assistant, said, walking into the office and gently placing the folder on my table.“Thank you, Jane. I will go through them in a minute and then we will have the meeting with the finance and marketing department on the next step. Please schedule it for tomorrow morning. I want to have this project done and over by the end of this week.” I said. “Of course, ma. I will get to that immediately.”“Thank you. And one more thing, Jane..”“Yes?”“How are your studies? I hope you are taking them seriously?” I asked.“Of course ma’am. Trust me, passing my finals is all that matters to me right now.” she enthused.“That is the spirit. Keep it up.” “Thank you ma’am. Your support to me these past few months have been everything to me.”“Come on. It is nothing. You can go on with your work now.” I said.“Alright ma.”I immediately went th

ALVIRA’S POVIt had been three months since I was discharged from the hospital and began living with the Zimmerman family and all I can say is that, if it has been nothing but a blessing being with these lovely souls. I was able to not only see but to also have a first hand experience of what unfiltered love felt and looked like. It was such a breath of fresh air to see James continuously fawning over Cecil. I loved watching the way they would flirt with each other endlessly, her grin permanently plastered on her face. It was just so refreshing. Lucas always gagged and behaved like he was disgusted by it and it pleased me to continually tease him about it endlessly. The look on his face was always priceless. Clarissa had finally come back to the states and it has been a somewhat smooth ride all along. It was refreshing to be around people who were there to help me get out of tough times. I was not completely out of the woods yet but I could already see the light at the end of the tu
Billionaire's Dark Desire Chapter 91
CARTER’S POVEverything happened so fast. One minute I was living my best life in Greece, and the very next, I was boarding a ten hour flight back to New York, sitting uncomfortably and impatiently as I counted down the seconds before we landed. With the way I was reacting, one would dare think that I had a very loving relationship with my father and would be so devastated if anything were to happen to him. Well, a part of it was true but another part of it was also not true. True, my father and I were not the best of pals and hardly got along very well, but that did not mean that I wished any bad thing to come to him. I just wanted to stay as far away from him as possible. I was grateful to Larry for his ability to think on his feet. Ever since the call had come in, he had been the one making the arrangements and making sure that everything went smoothly. He had arranged for the plane to be ready in an hour and had the staff come over to help me arrange my stuff into the car bef
Billionaire's Dark Desire Chapter 90
CARTER’S POVLife as a self made multimillionaire was great. I got to have the most beautiful girls, make crucial decisions, spend money however I wanted to, traveled to places I wanted to around the world, and drove only the latest versions of the most expensive cars in the world. I mean, with a face and body like mine coupled with pockets as deep as mine, I was unstoppable. Business was booming and the profits were tripling. The investors were happy which meant more money was being reinvested back into the business. Larry, being the fuvking genius that he was, was relentless when it came to making deals and negotiating with clients. I could never have asked for a more perfect partner. Now, all that was left was to finally be able to cash in on the inheritance money that was sure to come in anytime soon. Although, with the amount of money that I now had sitting in my numerous bank accounts and investments, I wasn’t so interested in the will as much as before. But still, who wasn’t
Billionaire's Dark Desire Chapter 89
ALVIRA’S POVLife with the Zimmerman family has been nothing but wonderful. It felt good to finally get to have a glimpse of what being in a family feels like. I watched as Lucas and his family interacted and I had to admit, it kind of stung. All I have ever wished for growing up was to experience the joy of being in a loving family. As an orphan, I had been passed from one orphanage to another, always hoping to the forces that be that somehow, I would get accepted into a home where I would experience the love and care and acceptance of a family. But alas, that was not to be my lot in life. It was nice to finally experience a bit of love from a family. Cecil had been a sweetheart to me ever since she finally met me. I remember how she had held me c like I was some fragile piece of china. “We are going to make sure we help you get through this, okay?” I remember her words. It had taken every single part of me to hold back from bawling my eyes out. She just had the calmest of faces,
