POV(FREYA),I dozed off and wished morning came late, so I could have a good rest. There's no way I'm missing work. Things might have been bad between me and Kaiden , but work is work, and personal business had to be put aside. I woke up very early and dressed neatly, avoiding flaws. This time, I didn't have a morning smile on, since the previous night still haunted me. I just want to work with Kaiden for the time being before I see another well-paying job. A moment with him wouldn't be a good thing.I got to work on time, and Kaiden looked at me with a kind of new look, a version of his look I had never seen before. I ignored him and started the day's job. He looked calm and didn't ask me any personal question, and we both pretended that anything ever happened.Just after the morning meeting was up, the afternoon was a free time for all employees. I rested my head on my table and dozed off. I was woken up by the loud sound of the telephone ringing beside me. "Come to my office righ
POV(FREYA),We held the eye contact for almost a minute before I finally decided to break it and look away, well I admit I got flattered by a man who used to be my biggest nightmare.Well, memories with Alan weren't the best but I couldn't forget the tiny bit of happiness I felt around him back then. Even now he seemed to spark a little glitter in me whenever he gave me that look.I'm actually the last person he's supposed to be seeing right now because I'm the reason he went to jail, and I'm also the reason why he got sent abroad."When did you get back?" I tried to keep the conversation going but Alan is never casual, he added a little bit of spice to the situation."Where's your wedding ring?" His expression was neutral, I couldn't really figure out if he really had no idea I got a divorce with Kaiden."Kaiden and I got a divor-""I know." Alan bursted out laughing and I bit my lower lip at how foolish I was for believing he was clueless."Then why did you ask?""I'm just really c
POV(FREYA),"You have a thing for going against my words now right? What happened to being professional and keeping personal things private?" Kaiden asked me immediately everyone left the meeting room until it was just him, me and Bianca.I was so disgusted by his words but I didn't want to overreact since we weren't married anymore. "Professional? You think I'm not being professional? You're the one bringing your unqualified wife into the organization without any test. I agree she used to be the star face of the company but that doesn't make her the star of the company now. A lot of things has changed and new models deserve a chance, 100 qualified models are working hard just to earn this position and you want me to tell them the position has been taken by someone who didn't even take the exams? Let's be logical here Kai- i mean 'sir', we know-""That's enough miss Hilton, whether I decide to bring my wife into organization without prior notice is my decision and I believe I have ful
POV(FREYA),I scrolled through my phone, looking for a perfect spot to have a date. It's not real but does that really matter? What matters is having fun.I got a text from Alan and I clicked on it immediately, he sent me the date and it was a working day.I wanted to tell him I wouldn't make it on a working day but then I thought about the sacrifice he would be making, I'll just get a day off then.I wrote a one day sick leave letter and wanted to give it to Kaiden myself, I didn't want to avoid him anymore. Probably make him aware that I won't hold onto memories we had together, ready to work professional and keep things business.I knocked gently before entering his office and Bianca was sitting next to him with some files, they seemed so perfect that I couldn't think of hating.I was the problem, if only I hadn't gotten married to him and made it harder for him. If only I didn't let my feelings get in the way and force myself to be with him.I snapped myself out of my daze and wa
POV(FREYA),I sat in my office the whole day fantasizing about Alan without realizing how obsessed I might be getting.I was too eager for a date, probably because it's been almost 4 years since I had experienced something so sweet.I smiled sheepishly as I sent the pictures of the good locations I found to Alan but but he didn't reply my text after seeing it.A knock, Alexa walked into my office with a heap of files that seemed too heavy even for her to carry."I think you got the wrong office, i-""Nope, these are the pending jobs that had been overlooked by your secretary. You have to get them done by tommorow's noon or... Things might go very wrong." Alexa dropped the files on my desk and I it was just too much for me to handle even if I spent 2 days."Is if fine if I refer some of these to Laura?" I asked and Alexa smiled sheepishly as though she had a solution but ended up saying "No""These documents are very sensitive and needs to be checked and done by you, yourself. They're
My pupils dilated as I glared at my husband's ex wife sitting gracefully on the couch in my living room. My blood boiled in rage but I couldn't do anything about it and just watched her in silence. Perhaps it never occurred to me that my husband's ex wife would come back 3 years later with a toddler and tell him he's a father. I don't even have the chance to be mad at him, she's giving him a child I couldn't give him for three years. He was surprised and angry but in a minute, he was holding the toddler in his arms like he had been expecting it all along without even considering my feelings. At that moment, I felt hurt but the fact that my husband wasn't even looking at me or explaining things properly. made me irritated. "What's going on? Are you just going to stand there or are you going to tell me what's going to happen? You can't just expect me to take her in do you!" I yelled but Kai's expression was not satisfying. "I'm so so sorry Freya, I can leave if you want me to but I
POV(FREYA),I woke up to the smell of pancakes hitting my nose very early in the morning, I slowly sat up and found Kai missing. He wasn't by my side Anymore, a slight giggle escaped my lips as I imagined him making breakfast for me. He has never done it but maybe I suddenly got high hopes this morning since I thought he was making breakfast. I hurried out of bed and rushed downstairs in my pyjamas. I was shocked when I saw numerous foods displayed on the dinning table and I found myself wondering if Kai really prepared all these. I followed the smell of the pancakes to the kitchen and Bianca was holding up my kitchen spoon, flipping pancakes in my pot. With my ingredients? Without thinking twice or considering anyone's feelings. I yelled, "get the f**k out of my kitchen!" The hot pancakes landed on the frying pan handle and the pan flipped and fell on her leg, it burned her and she yelped in pain. I hurried to her and immediately held up the pan. Kai rushed into the kitchen and
POV(FREYA)I woke up and Kai's heavy arm was resting on my waist. I was too angry to feel happy about it. I tried to sit up but his arm was too strong and it pulled me back down. "can't we just stay this way? For a while?" His voice melted my heart but I still protested and tried to sit up, with a little grunt after some efforts to sit up. He made me turn to him and I stared into his metallic eye that seemed to see through me. "What's wrong?" He asked, I just stared at him. Wondering if I should say what was on my mind or just pretend it's all fine like I've always done. But his eyes made me want to tear up, his face. The same face I fell in love with, I just wanted to tell him everything that was wrong. His hair was damp and he had a very unusual sweet scent coming from him, the scent from Bianca's child. "Did you stay with Bianca's child the whole night?" His face told me he did but I wasn't willing to try further. "Do you love me?" I knew it was a was a wierd question but

POV(KAIDEN),I arrived too late to work and I felt uneasy about Freya's Absence, maybe I should have used nicer words. I had never seen her this strong, she would always cry her eyes out.Alexa met me at the door to my office and she had a very sad expression like she had some bad news."You just missed your flight sir," she announced and I sighed, "a Ten million dollar contract down the drain, oops!" I Said and stormed into the office with a smile."Sir is everything okay?" She asked and I felt too excited that I finally got a burden off my shoulders."Why do you ask?" I asked her and sat at my desk."It's just that I've never seen you smile so brightly unless you won a contract," she said and I realized I was still smiling."Oh really? I guess you're right then, but something good just happened to me." I said before switching on my computer screen."Do you mind sharing sir?" She asked and took a seat."I'm not sure..." I said and I tried to keep my smile on as I typed away on the k
POV(FREYA),I headed home straight after work and thankfully, no one was home. I tried to think of where it all went wrong as I stared at my naked body through the bathroom mirror. The cold water hit my skin and cascaded down my body, I could feel my nipples hardening against the strange sensation as I closed my eyes.I felt a hand grab me and pull me in, I tried to fight him off but Kai was stronger. He kissed my neck first, then he started exploring my body all over with his lips.I almost gave in but the thought of him choosing Bianca over me made me angry, I pushed him away angrily and grabbed my towel.I sat down in front of my bedroom mirror backing him, I hated him at this moment because he knew how much I loved him and how much I'm trying not to let go of him."Can we talk?" Hearing his voice only made me more angry. "yeah sure, let's talk about our marriage. The one that seems or is on the brink of falling apart." My voice was low and calm."It's not my fault Freya, you shou
Morning came swiftly and faster than I imagined, I couldn't sleep a wink the whole night. I thought about what would become of me after the announcement of the arrival of Bianca's child is made to the family.I immediately dressed up and headed to work to avoid seeing Kaiden, he is surely not Someone I want to meet after all that has happened.I stood in front of the company with a worried look, I had the urge to turn back and go home. But I got in anyways.It started with a silent giggle from the staffs until it evolved into a loud scream. "Welcome back!!!" They exclaimed and lara(my secretary) showed up with a cake in her hands.We had a little blast before I finally decided to get to work, "where is Damien?" I asked Laura as we headed back to my office."You mean the Vice president? He's In his office." Laura's answer was quick and I rushed to the elevator, leaving her alone at the doorway."Knock knock! Can I come in?" I teased closing the door behind me as I entered the office."
POV(FREYA), My eyes flickered open and the sound of the ECG beeping made me realize I was in the hospital, I slowly turned and Kai was holding my hand. "Kai, what's going on?" I managed to sit up and Kai gave me a sad look, I decided not to bombard him with questions so I just waited to hear it from him. "It's okay, I'm glad you're safe. The results will be out in an hour, we'll know what the problem is then." Kai assured me, I looked outside the window and my gaze landed on a pregnant woman sitting on a wheelchair. Life dosen't go as planned, and we can't change it either. The more we put our hope into getting what we want, the more impossible it seems. "The doctor requests for your presence sir," a nurse informed us and I sighed heavily. "Let's go Kai..." "The doctor said only the husband can go in." The nurse said and I knew what that meant, a sign of bad news. "It's fine, I can handle anything." I assured the nurse but Kai's expression said otherwise. We both entered the do
