“Look, Damien, please don't try anything stupid in there,”

I'm sitting in the backseat, gritting my teeth, as Eros just keeps going on and on with his non-stop blabbering words as he drives us down to the club. I mean, seriously, it feels like he's got an endless supply of words stored up in there! I can't help but roll my eyes and wonder if we'll ever arrive at our destination with all this unnecessary chatter going on.

He cast a glance at me through the rearview mirror before asking, "Hey, bro, do you understand me?"

I couldn't help but roll my eyes at him, my fists clenched so tight, that I thought I might burst. The anger inside me was simmering, ready to explode. With a hiss escaping my lips, we made the next

    She forcefully yanked her wrist from my grip, and I watched as she quickly moved away from me, creating a small but noticeable distance between us. I snarled, my eyes fixed on her as she poured the wine into the glass tumbler on the table. Her seductive gaze met mine, intensifying the tension in the room. Holding the glass, she sauntered towards me, her perfectly slender legs on full display. Ignoring the palpable tension in the air, she stopped right in front of me, a seductive grin playing on her lips. Her eyes sparkled as she extended the glass towards me. Glaring at her with a mix of anger and frustration, I couldn't stand her misplaced confidence any longer. In a fit of fury, I forcefully knocked the glass out of her hand, the sound of it shattering against the floor echoing through the room. Without hesitation, I grabbed her chin, my grip tight and commanding. But to my disbelief, she let out a seductive triumph, her voice dripping with desire. "Come, Damien, I love my men r

As I neared the half-burnt building, my anger surged, boiling within me. The sight that unfolded before my eyes was haunting, sending shivers down my spine.The charred remnants stood as a somber reminder of the destructive force that had engulfed it. The thick smell of smoke swirls around the place, creating an unsettling atmosphere. Damn it….. This is one of my profitable warehouses!I clenched my teeth as I glanced at the building. The once majestic structure now wore the scars of fire, its walls blackened and crumbling, its windows shattered and empty. "I got the news late," Pasito said as he came to stand beside me, his right hand gently resting on my shoulder."What happened here?"

My mind keeps searching for answers, but nothing seems to make sense.Who hacked my account? How am I going to explain this mess to Damien when it's clear that I was the only one who knew about the announcement, besides his friends?Is it his friends? Holy shit…… not possible!I rubbed my palms nervously, what about my father? Has he seen the news? Damn! I could feel the anxiety building up with each step I took. A sigh escaped my lips as I heard a faint knock at the door. "Aurora, just go!" I screamed, not caring to see who it was. "I've already told you that I'm not hungry... Take your lunch away," the words rolled out in a muffled tone as I sobbed uncontrollably, my hand instinctively covering my mouth to stifle the sound. “Is Emily, ma,” “Dinner is ready,” she announced behind the closed door.My heart

    Olivia “Is your leg still paining you?” "Just a little," I hum in response before letting out a tired sigh.Mason nodded and pulled a chair forward, sitting in front of me with his arms crossed."What!" I snapped, raising my brow at him.Sighing, he cleared his throat before speaking up, "You might hurt yourself.""He's just acting, he'll give in as time goes on," I said, giving him a wink. A mischievous smile played on my lips, though my own words didn't even seem that convincing to me.He acknowledges her as his wife and even fights the urge to have anything to do with me. Who in their right senses would reject this alluring body? “But the way he pushed you says otherwise,” "Mason!" I snapped, slowly massaging my ankle. "It's my business, I don't care!"Shrugging, he rested back on the chair. "Not my business though, I'm just caring because your target seems like a hard crack."I snarled at him, glaring.

Smiling.I had left earlier to attend to urgent matters concerning the silly gadget announcement. Sighing, I heaved out a breath as I multitasked, scrolling through my phone, my eyes darting between the screen and my computer monitor. I effortlessly switched between apps, checking emails, messages, and my social media notifications. And just then the corners of my mouth curled upward in satisfaction as I saw the news online. “Breaking News: The Gadget Innovation Company declines business partnership with Alexander Smith and welcomes an exciting new business partner with the well-known Damien Albrecht, the recent owner and CEO of PowerTech Innovation Company”I paused on what I was doing, smiling as I dialed

    Ashley I couldn't contain my excitement as I walked into the company, my mind consumed by thoughts of Damien, the man who had completely ravished me the night before. Stepping inside, the usual silence enveloped the workplace, with everyone seemingly pretending to be engrossed in their tasks, acting like they didn't see the juicy gossip spreading like wildfire on social media.Without paying any attention to their pretense, I hurriedly made my way upstairs, a wide grin plastered across my face that seemed to irk them. As I approached Damien's office, I could hear a heated commotion, filled with discussions about killing someone and taking legal action. Initially, I assumed it was just his friends engaging in a heated argument, so without giving it much thought, I forcefully pushed open the door.And there, look and behold, stood Damien and, to my utter astonishment, my father!My face twisted into a scowl, a mix of confusion and surprise reflecting in my eyes."Da...mien!"

Damien sat across his desk, engrossed in a phone call. Pausing, he raised his brow at me, seemingly surprised by my sudden entrance."I need an explanation," I exclaimed, completely ignoring the phone pressed against his ear. At that moment, I must have appeared like a complete wreck, my disheveled appearance matching the chaos of my emotions.Ignoring my presence, Damien abruptly ended the call and carelessly tossed his phone onto the desk. Leaning back in his chair, he closed his eyes as if trying to shut out the world. Frustration boiling inside me, I raised my voice. "Damien, I am talking to you!" I exclaimed, my voice filled with exasperation."Why didn't you tell

    Ashley Time flies and before I knew it it was morning already. I spoke with Sebastian yesterday and he told me that he will be coming with a surprise package. Knock. Knock“I am coming," I shouted and perked Mrs. Catherina in the cheeks and hurried to open the door. “Hey Sebastian," I greeted with a warm smile and he smiled back. “How have you been?" “Just there," I replied, my eyes curiously trailing all over him for any present or anything but he came empty handed. Where is the surprise package?" Hey, you said that you have something that will cheer me up,” I pouted and he laughed while walking in."

    AshleyThe airport is full of people leaving and entering from arriving flights. I sat down on the bench there waiting patiently for my flight, when suddenly the airport's public address system crackled to life. The air traffic control personnel announce, their voice echoing through the terminal..."Attention all passengers and airport personnels, due to severe weather conditions, all flight departures are currently suspended. Please check with your airline for further updates and instructions.""What?!" I gasped, shocked. Which weather? I thought, glancing up at the small opening up there to see the sky but to my surprise, it was clear. Not a cloud in sight, no sign of rain or even a hint of turbulence.What are they now talking about? I wasn't the only one perplexed, my fellow passengers exchanged confused glances, and a low murmur and noises started rising and that’s when my phone beeped.

    amien. Swirling my office chair around, my mind kept drafting to different directions. I won’t deny the fact that I am kind of scared about the abortion that Ashley is about to go through but then again… . I rubbed my face, and let out a deep sigh. What if I lose her? God forbid! I don’t think I will survive that, picking out my phone to dial Ashley’s number when suddenly the door to my office opened and Lucas walked in. "Good evening, boss," he said, but I just raised an eyebrow in response. Noticing my expression, he added, "Someone is here to see you, boss."Someone is here to see me? Who? I am not expecting anyone.“Who?" I asked, eyeing him up suspiciously. He gulped hard and scratched his neck nervously, “I think is best to see him," Him?Giving him a suspicious glare, I leaned back in my chair and nodded for him to let the person in. He nodded and went back to the door. My curiosity widened as the door opened, and I readjust to see the person but to my surprise, Seba

    Tears were rushing down my face as I hurried down stairs. All my world seemed to be crumbling before me for real this time. My heart was full of pain, and hurt.I haven’t felt this broken before all through my life. It feels like I am suffocating. I held my chest, feeling a painful tug against my heart. So all the time I have been living with that monster from that very night. He was the reason that my life was full of pain, bruises, suffering and trauma. I was almost downstairs, when a hand suddenly grabbed me from behind and pulled me into an empty corridor in the restaurant.

I wailed, and Sebastian pulled me in a tight, comforting hug.

    “And how is this related to the stranger?" I turned to Sebastian but Layla was quick to answer. “I just wanted to tell you how everything happened,” she said, attempting to look pitiful But I am not buying those cheap looks on her face. She had betrayed me, and I wasn't about to forget it. " Then be fast, I don’t have all day,” I snapped, my patience wearing thin. Sebastian patted my hand to calm down. "After I caught them, I threatened to tell you," Layla said, tears streaming down her face. "Honestly, I wanted to tell you, but they used my grandma's condition against me." She sobbed, but I raised an eyebrow at her. "He offered to treat her for free if I kept quiet and went along with their plan. I was devastated...," she trailed off, sniffling. Sebastian handed her a tissue across the table, and she took it, turning to face me. "They threatened to kick my grandma out if I didn't cooperate.

    My ringing tone pulled me out of my sleep, and I yawned, stretching out my hand to grab the phone from the nightstand beside the bed. Again, Damien hadn't slept here last night. My head pounded as I tried to sit up straight in bed. I picked up the call without checking the caller ID and placed the phone to my ear. "Yes?" I sounded drowsy, my voice husky from sleep."Are you just waking up?" Sebastian chuckled from the other end of the line. Startled, I pulled the phone away and checked the caller ID. "Fuck," I hissed under my breath. "It's still morning," I said, yawning. I heard him chuckle again before saying, "When you're done, come to the eatery at Street 10 by the roadside." "Why?" I asked, my curiosity piqued. "It's about our last discussion," he replied. My gaze widened, and I instantly sat up straight in bed, my heart racing."Did you find anything?" I asked, clinging to the duvet in fear. I heard Sebastian sigh before saying, "Just come out, at least by 10 o'clock.
