He definitely works out.
I shook my head, trying to get out of his embrace and his intoxicating smell. “Vince-”
“Shhh, just for tonight.” He rested his chin on my head as he got comfortable while my heart pounded against my ribcage. “We’re okay. We’re going to be okay,” he murmured.
Oh my freaking God.
I attempted to move his arm again but he let out a weak groan and tightened his hold around my waist even more. His rock-hard pecs weren’t doing anything to calm the images in my mind. It was a struggle shutting them out especially being this close to his face. When

“Vince.” Lysa looked surprised at seeing his fiance. Lorenzo’s eyes widened. Clearly, they didn’t expect he’d be there. She immediately left Lorenzo’s side and rushed to him, giving him a firm kiss on the lips. Vincentio’s mouth thinned.“You told me you’d be busy.”“I am busy.” His eyes flickered coldly to his brother. “But I see my brother is keeping you company. He’s always been a family man.”I stared back and forth at the drama unfolding before me. The tension in the air was palpable. I knew I shouldn’t be there but I couldn’t take my eyes off of them. Lysa’s parents were oblivious to this as they smiled when Vincentio put a hand on Lysa’s waist. What they didn’t notice was the warning grip he had on it as his veins popped.“Why don’t you join us, Vince? It’s your wedding too, you know. I’m sure your assistan

“I wish I’m rich.” Andrew, my best friend, moaned tiredly across from me. We just finished up cleaning every inch of the flower boutique. “Don’t we all?” He narrowed his eyes on me. “You’re Lucy Silvera. So, no, you don’t.” “No, I don’t,” I agreed, perusing through some old documents. “I’m just humoring you so you’d shut up.” “I still can’t believe you rejected her offer. We’re talking about a thousand dollars here!” I rolled my eyes. 'Here we go again.' Ever since my grandma has left me the boutique in her will, businessmen have come and surveyed the property for their ne

“What do you say, Miss Silvera?” Vincentio’s eyes lit up with a predatory glint. “Nope,” I said with no hesitation. A sense of pleasure went down my spine as his smugness crumbled in less than a minute. He seemed very offended by the word as if I just insulted his mother. “Nope?” “Nope," I repeated, popping the p. He shook his head. “I’m sorry but are you comprehending what I just said?” “Yup.” “Then-” “The answer is nope.” My grin widened as a vein protruded on his temple. “Mi

It was Andrew's turn to wave a hand at my frozen face. When I didn't respond, he sprayed water at me from one of the garden spray bottles littered in the place. "What the hell, 'Drew?" I spluttered. "Just be glad I didn't slap you. So, who was it?" I can feel an oncoming headache on top of the stress of meeting with Vincentio Longoria. I put my fingers on my both my temple. "Loan shark." His eyes bugged out. "Your parents managed to borrow half a million dollars from them?" Addicts are the favorite clients of loan sharks. Drug addicts, sex addicts, gambling addicts, or any kind of addicts for that matter. They all have one thing in common: they'd do anything to get off. Cons

The receptionist scratched his head in confusion. “What interview would that be for, Ma’am?” “For an assistant,” I said, feeling dumb. I cleared my throat, determined not to lose my straight composure. “Right on the dot,” the guy noted, impressed. “Please, have a seat. I’ll inform the HR.” VINCE’S POV (3rd person) A limousine rolled to the huge glass building. The logo of the Longoria brand was recognizable enough that a small crowd had gathered to get a glimpse of the son of "The" Lucius Longoria. Those working in the corporate industry had already caught wind of the new acquisition deal. What was unexpected was that the heir took over himself. Women (and some of the men) braced themselves to see the ge

“I don’t recall reading this in the job description.” “Turn,” Vincentio simply said, making a circling motion with his finger. I gritted my teeth. I ought to throw these high heels at his stupid face. He brought me to a high-end boutique and all afternoon, I had been trying work clothes and dresses for him. The experience would have been pleasant if only he threw some compliments here and there but he seemed more likely to choke before he could tell me I look beautiful. “You can't expect that I would let you wear cheap crap while being seen beside me, can you? That would kill my reputation.” When I didn’t turn at his command, he stood up from the couch and circled me like a shark. His intense green eyes almost held a pre

“Are you wearing perfume?” Vincentio asked as I put this month's schedule on his table for him to sign. When I just stared at him weirdly, he clarified, “You smelled different from yesterday.” “Thanks, I guess.” “I didn’t say it smelled nice.” He handed me back the schedule after he signed and went back to reviewing the company’s metrics. I bit back my tongue from retorting. “Your secretary has compiled these from your old office to be disposed of.” I put another file in front of him. It took all of my willpower to resist slamming it on his face. “Should I throw it away?” Vincentio opened the thick folder gingerly, and sifted through it, his eyes seeming to search for

“AHHH!” I screamed. I took another long deep breath before I let rip another one into my pillow. Sleep did not come to me easily. I’ve gone to bed at eleven on the dot. It was now three in the morning and I was wide awake. All because of Vincentio Longoria. 'That damn billionaire.' I’ve been short-sighted. I was so focused on getting this over with that I forgot who I was dealing with here. There was just something about his presence that intimidates me still.

“Man, this sure brought back some memories.” Fabian chuckled as he sauntered to the pitiful figure. “Vince.” He nudged him with his foot. “Dude, are you still alive?”I couldn’t stand to watch Vincentio’s body on the floor while Fabian just nudged him around so I moved towards them. I threw my bag on the couch and removed my blazer, rolling up my sleeves as I prepare to lift my boss.“Let’s get him into bed.”Fabian hauled him to his feet and almost toppled over from the effort. They were almost the same height but Vincentio clearly had a bigger build compared to his friend’s slim figure. I put his other arm around my shoulders and helped him move to his room. I was just glad his room wasn’t upstairs as his unconscious body was too heavy f

“Vincentio’s missing?” “Shh!” Fabian glanced around the lobby and pulled me along down the stairs leading to the parking lot. “What do you mean he’s missing?” “Gone. Lost. Presence unknown. Cannot be reached.” A chime echoed around the hollow lot as he pushed the button on his car key, unlocking it. He opened the passenger door of his sleek sports car before I could and I meekly got inside, still processing his words. Was he kidnapped? Fabian seemed awfully calm to consider the possibility. Maybe this has happened before? I have a hunch that this is related to Lysa and Lorenzo's affair. A small twinge of guilt suddenly went through me. When Fabian pulled out of the parking s

Vincentio had been avoiding me after our conversation in the cafe which was very inconvenient for me as my work revolved around him. I’ve been demoted to my desk all day, receiving people for him like a doormat. When I told him the news, I didn’t expect to get a silent treatment. I expected he’d get angry but that it wouldn't affect him that much as he seemed to detest Lysa during the charity gala. I had a feeling then that their engagement was just out of a business deal. It’s common in wealthy families, right? But he wouldn’t have reacted the way he did if that were the case. And yet, he was aware of it before I even told him. Is it also normal for marriages like that? To have their significant other cheat on them? Can it even be considered cheating when there’s no love in the first place? Vincentio didn’t seem like a man who would let himself get cheated o

It felt nice having someone to confide in other than my sister and Andrew. I clicked with Oz faster than I mostly do with people. He could be flirty at times but I chalked it up to be part of who he was. Plus, he's hot so it helped boost my self-esteem. I never knew having an attractive heterosexual male friend could be this beneficial. Days passed by fast and before I knew it, it's already Monday and I was at the office. I came bearing coffee and a bagel for Vincentio only to find out he wasn't there. I debated texting where the hell he was but I just ended up eating the bagel and washing it down with his no-sugar black coffee as I waited patiently for him. It tasted like sh*t. The door suddenly opened. "Is it true?" A furious voice bellowed and I quickly threw the cup of coffee in the bin. The man's brown eyes landed on me when he realized Vincentio wasn't in the room. I gulped. His angry expres

“Where were you?” I jolted back hard as a hand grasped my arm. “Whoa, calm down. It’s just me.” Vincentio’s green eyes suddenly appeared before me and I started to calm down but then I remembered what I just witnessed, and my heartbeat spiked up again. His eyes narrowed. “You look terrible. What happened?” After seeing Lysa got devoured by a man who was not Vincentio in the middle of the forest, I ran back to the hall and knocked back a few glasses of champagne, trying to erase the image from my eyes. I had been walking mindlessly around the place since then and that’s when Vincentio grabbed me. “Oh I was just- just looking around, you know,” I chuckled nervously, avoiding his eyes. “Like to stroll around? Yeah, I’m familiar with the concept,” he said dryly, “I’ve been searching all over. I guess it’s an oversight on my part. I should have saved your number. Give me your phone.
