(Writer's POV)

"Ahhhghhh!" Jenna screamed angrily, throwing a glass of wine against the wall. The glass shattered into tiny pieces. Lydia, her friend, who had heard the scream, rushed out of the room immediately.

"What's wrong, Jenna? Why are you screaming, and why did you throw a glass at the wall?" Lydia asked, noticing Jenna was still fuming.

"I'm so angry I feel like killing someone right now!" Jenna spat. The veins in her neck were visible, indicating her rage.

"Relax, girl. No one is dying, and you're not going to kill anyone. What’s making you so pissed off? You were in a good mood just a few minutes ago," Lydia said, trying to understand why her friend had suddenly turned from cheerful to a furious tigress ready to pounce.

"I was in a good mood because I thought Scott was going to come here."

"Scott? The guy you went to London with but ended up cheating on?" Lydia asked.

"You don't have to remind me of that, Lydia!" Jenna glared at her.

"Fine. I'm sorry. I was just trying to c

    (Allison's POV) Scott's eyes were on me as we drove toward his house. I would have said no when he asked me to drop him off, but I didn't know why I had agreed. Maybe I was just returning the favor for how he always walked me home when we were together. The way he had pulled me away from that celebrity replayed in my mind, and I sighed, unsure if it had come out loud. I didn't mean to lash out at Scott like that. He was never a controlling boyfriend; I said it in anger, wanting him to know I was no longer the lovesick girl trying to please him. We weren't together anymore, and he had no right to meddle in who I interacted with. I wanted him to understand that. "Stop looking at me, Scott. I'm not comfortable with how you're staring at me," I said, finally shifting my gaze from the road to him. "I can't help it, Allie. You've always been beautiful, but you look especially stunning tonight," he said, his eyes refusing to leave mine. I was tempted to blush at his words, but I held bac

    (Scott's POV) While waiting for Allison to come out of the room, I prayed that the rain wouldn't stop anytime soon so I could spend some time with her. It felt selfish to always want her around, especially since I had taken those moments for granted before. I sat down in the wine cellar, slowly sipping a glass of wine, when Allison finally emerged from the room. She was already putting on my hoodie, which reminded me of the countless times she'd worn my clothes whenever she visited me. She was so funny back then. When she came to visit me at my condo before our breakup, she won't purposely bring her own clothes just so she could wear mine. "I love the way your clothes smell on me," she'd always say, jumping on me because she knew I would catch her. I missed those moments—when I could freely wrap my arms around her slender waist, scoop her up, and kiss her until we were both breathless. I missed the days I could claim her without her trying to stop me. But now, I couldn’t do any of

    (Allison's POV) I smiled in my sleep as I rolled over in bed. I lifted the huge duvet, covering my whole body with it, while I continued tossing and turning, lost in my dreams. I found comfort in this bed; it was so different from mine, and I could lay down on it forever. "It's so different from my bed!" the thought surged through my mind, and I quickly opened my eyes. I sprang up, my eyes widening in shock as I realized I had spent the night at Scott's house. What the heck happened last night? I was supposed to go home after the rain stopped, so how did I end up spending the night here? A portrait of him hung on the wall, confirming that this was Scott's room. I ran my hand through my hair as I tried to recall what had happened. Scott had insisted we talk about Liam. I would have declined, but since I'd do anything for my son's sake, I agreed to have a drink with him. My eyes darted around the room, my hair scattered all over my face, as I tried my best to remember what happ

    (Allison's POV) Bonnie immediately rushed to me when I arrived at the office. "Good morning, Allison," she greeted with a smile. "Good morning," I replied, knowing the reason for that smile on her face. "I'll help you carry your bag," she said, taking it from me. I chuckled as we entered the elevator heading to my office. The moment we stepped inside, Bonnie dropped my bag on the table. "Tell me, Allison. Where did you spend the night yesterday?" she asked, excited to hear the full story. "Nowhere," I replied as I sat down, and Bonnie frowned. "Are you trying to say you spent the night on the streets? I doubt that. I'm sure you spent the night at a man's house." "What makes you think I spent the night at a man's house?" "Because you don't have any friends apart from me. Didn't you say the friends you knew are all from Sydney?" she asked, and I smiled. After my parents died, my brother and I moved to California to stay with Aunt Hilda. So, the friends I was close with are all i

    (Allison's POV) "Order anything you want to eat, Allison," Jenna smiled at me as she handed the menu to me. At first, I didn't want to eat out with her, but after she kept insisting, I had to agree to her demand. And here we are, dining at an expensive restaurant meant for first-class people like her. It's no doubt that she is a rich heiress, with the way she carries herself and how she dresses. It got me wondering why she showed up unexpectedly at my workplace, demanding we eat out together. Faking a smile, I took the menu from her and placed my order. "Are you sure you just want cocktail? We came here to eat, so you can order any expensive food you want," she said, smiling at me, her legs crossed elegantly. "I’m okay with just cocktail," I replied, faking a smile back at her. My main concern was why she came to see me. "I'm going to have cocktail too," she said to the waiter, who nodded and left. "You're not going to eat?" I asked. "I want to be a copycat," she laughed at her

    (Allison's POV) "Stefan!" Aunt Hilda exclaimed as she stood up from the couch to give Stefan a warm embrace. "How have you been, Stefan?" "I've been good, Aunt Hilda," Stefan replied with a smile. I stayed where I was, unsure of what to say to him. Alex leaned against the wall, clearly unhappy to see Stefan. "I thought you'd be back soon, but you were gone for too long. I know New York is your home, but you shouldn't have taken so long to come back," Aunt Hilda said, caressing his palm. I could see the genuine love she had for Stefan—she didn't just love him as a son, but also as someone she thought would be good for me. Even though she didn’t say it to my face, I knew she wanted Stefan for me. She hadn’t pressured me in the past because she understood what I had been through. "I'm sorry, Aunt Hilda. There were so many demands for children's books, and I had to wrap them up before coming down to California to see you all." "You are such a handsome, hardworking man," Aunt Hilda

    (Writer's POV)Alex and Stefan ended up at a nearby open bar. It was the kind where passersby could easily glimpse inside. Alex had chosen this spot because it was quiet and different from the indoor bars that played loud, deafening music."Are you in love with my sister?" Alex asked coldly, his tone sharp and authoritative. From the way he spoke, one might mistake him for a spoiled little brat, but he was far from it. Alex loved Allison deeply and was determined to ensure that the heartbreak she had endured before would never repeat itself.He was only fourteen when Scott shattered Allison’s heart, and all Alex could do then was console his devastated sister. But now, as an adult, he had the strength and determination to protect her at all costs, even if it meant confronting anyone who dared to hurt her.Stefan smiled calmly and poured alcohol into Alex’s glass. "Have a drink?""I asked you a question, Stefan. It’s disrespectful to ignore me," Alex fumed, his irritation evident."It’

    (Allison's POV) "Where's Alex?" I asked when Stefan came back without him. "He went back to school," Stefan replied, and I frowned. "He went back to school without telling me? When did he start doing that?" I asked, though I didn't expect an answer from Stefan. "He said he had an early class tomorrow, and that's why he went back to school. But don't worry, Allison. Alex will be fine—he's not a kid anymore," Stefan tried to calm my nerves, but I couldn't stop myself from worrying about him. Alex is my younger brother, and I care about him just as much as he cares about me. I quickly grabbed my phone to call him, just to make sure he was back at school, but Bonnie beat me to it—she has a knack for calling whenever I’m about to check on my family. "What's up, boss?" Bonnie said loudly over the phone. She always calls me "boss" when she wants to tease me. "Hey, Bonnie. What's up?" "I'm good. I just dropped your younger brother off at his school." "Alex?" I asked.

    (Allison's POV) Bonnie held her cheek as she looked at me in surprise. She hadn’t expected me to slap her—neither did I. But she had gone too far, and I needed to make her think straight because it was so obvious she had lost it. She even dared to sleep with my brother! “Did you just slap me?” she questioned. “Yes,” I answered firmly. “I slapped you, Bonnie, and I will do it over and over again if you don’t watch your tongue. I came here so I could talk to you, but it’s obvious you’ve gone mad. You should see a psychiatrist because that’s what you need!” I snapped at her and turned to leave, but Bonnie held my hand. “Allison,” her voice choked with tears. I turned to look at her, and she was already shedding tears. “You were right about Peter. He doesn’t love me like he claims he does. He’s gay, and he was just using me to hide the fact that he’s gay. I was just so heartbroken when I found out the truth from him, and I didn’t know how to face you because you’ve been right all a

    (Allison's POV) I blushed hard as Scott slipped his hands around my waist. "Aren’t you becoming obsessed with me?" I simpered. "Yes. I’m madly obsessed with you," he whispered, kissing my cheeks, and I blushed even harder. "I’m going to try my best to make up for the times I wasn’t there for you," he whispered again, and I chuckled. "Aren’t you going to work?" I asked, even though I wanted him to stay at home with me. I didn’t have much to do at my clothing line, so I decided to take a day off from work. We had the house all to ourselves because Liam and Clara visited Aunt Hilda. "Work can wait. You’re more important than anything in the world." "Stop being cheesy." "Do you love it or hate it?" he murmured. I licked my lower lip with a smile. "I love it," I answered, and he kissed my cheek again with his hands hovering around me. "I want to eat you up right now… I just can’t get enough of you," he said as he turned me to face him. I blushed like a teenager in love. He pecke

    (Writer's POV) "Do you want to eat lunch with us?" a group of female interns asked Alex, who had buried his head in his work. Alex lifted his head from his computer and smiled at them. "No, I can't. I have to finish my assignment." "We all have assignments to do, but that doesn't mean we can't go out to eat, right? Come on, Alex, join us, it's going to be my treat," one of them said while the rest nodded their heads, smiling at him. Alex is the most handsome one among the male interns, so every female interns wanted to bond with him. "I'm really sorry, but I can't. Maybe next time." "That's what you always say. Why can't you hang out with us? Do you have a girlfriend who is so toxic?" another asked. "I don't have a girlfriend," he muttered. "More reason you should hang out with us. You never know, you might like one of us," another said and the rest giggled. Alex looked at them and sighed. He knew it would be impossible for him to love another girl who isn't Bonnie.

    (Writer's POV) Bonnie smiled sweetly as she designed the cake she had just baked with lots of love petals. She was planning on giving it to Peter because it was his birthday today. "I'm sure he's going to love it," she blushed. "What are you doing, Bonnie?" her mom asked when she entered the kitchen with her dad. Her parents came over to spend the weekend with her. "I'm baking a cake for Peter. It's his birthday today," she smiled. "Who's Peter?" her dad asked. "Peter is her boyfriend. The man she has refused to introduce to us," her mom answered on her behalf. "Mom, it's not like I don't want to introduce him to you. He's been busy and that's why I'm yet to introduce him to both of you," as always, she defended Peter. "No man is too busy for the woman he loves. If he really loves you, he would make time to be with you and get to know your family," her dad said. "Peter isn't like other men. Besides, he doesn't need to be with me every day before I can be convinced he loves me

    (Scott's POV) I stared at Allison, waiting for her to say something, but she remained quiet, just staring back at me with eyes filled with guilt. "When you said you spent the night at Elena's house because she was having issues with her husband... was that a lie? Did you spend the night in his hotel suite—and kiss him?" I asked again, hoping she’d say something—anything at all. "Yes, she did, Scott," Stefan answered on her behalf. "She lied to you. Gosh, her lips were so soft when I kissed her. Tasted like vanilla," he added, clearly trying to provoke me. I fell for it and punched him in the face. Anger and jealousy surged through me knowing he had kissed Allison—my woman. When she said she’d been celibate after we broke up, I felt honored. It meant I was still the only man who had been privileged to kiss her, touch her, and do whatever I wanted with her body. But now, I’d just found out Stefan had kissed her. Stefan laughed, wiping the blood from his lips. "You're so piss

    (Allison's POV) My aunt and my brother were beyond shocked when I told them how Stefan had lied about being crippled. Aunt Hilda and I had visited Alex in his condo, and I decided to tell them about it, but I left out the part where he tried to rape me. They wouldn't take it lightly, especially Alex. I didn't want more drama, which was why I deleted that part from our conversation. "I still can't believe Stefan could lie about being crippled. I thought he was a decent man," Aunt Hilda said, clicking her tongue. I also thought the same way, but now I understood who he truly is, behind the facade he was putting on. "I'm sure he did that just to get your attention, sis. Have you talked to him?" Alex asked. He wouldn't have asked such a question if I had told him Stefan tried to rape me. He would have been on his way to confront Stefan right now. I smiled and shook my head. Ever since the day he tried to rape me, I blocked his number. Scott had insisted we file a case agains

    (Allison's POV) I tried to form words, but I couldn't find the right ones to say. There was no way I could tell my son I just had sex with his father. He was too young to hear such things, but Liam being Liam would always want to know everything. Scott, on the other hand, was speechless and didn't know what to say. We could have left the hot make-out session and love-making for the night, but I was just too overwhelmed to bury myself in him, especially since it had been six years since I felt the touch of a man. "Mummy, Daddy, why aren't you both saying anything? Why do you have swollen lips?" he asked, his eyes darting between me and his daddy. "Liam!" Elena exclaimed suddenly with a smile, and Liam's eyes shifted to her. "Don't you think you should show your parents the award you got in school? You were talking about it throughout the ride, right?" "You had an award in school?" Scott asked, playing along, and my innocent son fell for it. "Yes, Daddy! I got a gold medal

    (Allison's POV) "Ouch," Scott whimpered as I treated the bruises on his face. "Don't be a crybaby," I said, purposely adding pressure as I tended to his wounds. "Ow! Allie! You're doing it on purpose, aren't you?" he laughed. "No, I'm not. You're the one who should stop being a crybaby," I rolled my eyes playfully. "Really? Crybaby, huh?" he said, then tickled me. I laughed and found myself sitting on his lap. We both stared at each other, smiling. I was over the moon that I was finally back together with Scott. What I did was unjust, but he was able to forgive me. If he hadn’t intervened, Stefan would’ve raped me. It's still hard to believe he was capable of that, judging from how nice he had been to me. But that doesn’t matter anymore. What mattered now was that I was back with the man who could tame my heart—no matter how badly he had crushed it. Scott's hand went to my hair, and he caressed it gently. "I love you, Allie," he whispered, and I blushed. "You’ve

    (Scott's POV) I had just finished a meeting with clients from Australia when Clara rushed into my office, informing me about Allison and telling me how she had been taking care of Stefan, who was pretending to be crippled. She gave me the address of the hotel where she was staying, and due to my connection with the owner of the hotel, I was given the room number of the suite he was in. Before I could get to the door, I heard Allison screaming from inside as she begged Stefan to let her go. Forcefully pushing the door open, I found Stefan on top of Allison, trying to rape her. I grabbed him and flung him away, not caring where he'd land. My eyes locked on Allison. She knew I was angry and filled with disappointment over what she had done, so she couldn't bear to look at me. "Scott!" Stefan spat my name, and my angry eyes fixed on him. "How dare you interrupt my moment with Allison!" he raged and rushed towards me. He managed to land a punch on my face, but I returned the
