Sienna’s POV

“How could you do something so cruel to me?!" Theresa’s voice shook with anger and her face streaked with angry tears. "I trusted you, Candice! You were my best friend!"

Candice stood frozen, one hand pressed against her reddened cheek that Theresa had just slapped, her own tears slipping down.

I pushed my chair back, ready to intervene, but Candice subtly shook her head, stopping me. Slowly, she dropped her hand from her cheek and straightened her posture, her eyes filled with regret.

“You have every right to be mad at me, Theresa," her voice was visibly heavy with emotions ss she spoke. "That’s why I couldn’t bring myself to tell you what I did. Because I knew that what I did was unforgivable."

Theresa let out a sharp, bitter laugh.

"You’re damn right it is! I will never forgive you. Not in this life, not in the next! You knew how broken things were between Ethan and me, and you still did that? Why?! What did I ever do to deserve this?"

    Sienna’s POVSitting at my vanity table, I stared into the mirror, carefully applying mascara and a light layer of lip gloss. Once I was done, I pulled my chestnut-brown hair into a messy bun, letting a few loose strands frame my face.Standing up, I checked my reflection one last time. My lavender floral dress was simple but elegant, paired with matching heels. I figured that the party wouldn’t be a fancy one. Just probably a small dinner, so there was no need to overdo it.The sound of the front doorbell rang behind me, and I turned, already knowing who it was. Taking a deep breath to steady my nerves, I walked to the front door, forced a small smile. Reaching for the doorknob, I pulled the door open.Roman stood before me, dressed casually in a fitted Armani shirt and jeans, his hands tucked deep into his pockets. Even in simple clothes, he looked just as good as always. His broad shoulders and defined muscles were very much impossible to ignore.Ugh! Focus, Sienna. This isn’t why

    Sienna’s POVAs soon as Roman parked in front of Ethan’s penthouse, I stepped out of the car. Glancing at the towering building, I admired the way it stood tall against the night sky, with its glass windows reflecting the city lights. There were also neatly trimmed hedges lining the pathway, giving off an air of quiet luxury.“Thanks.” I said to Roman, bringing my attention back to him as I stood by the window, waiting for him to drive away. But he didn’t. Instead, we remained locked in a tense silence, with unspoken words pressing down on us.Finally, I broke the silence. “So…”Roman’s piercing gaze didn’t waver for even a second. “Do you like him?” Although his voice was calm, it was easy to perceive the underlying jealous beneath that calmness. “Ethan. Do you like him?”A laugh almost slipped from my lips, but I swallowed it down, the sound stopping just at my lips. I watched as Roman’s brows lifted slightly, his serious expression contrasting with my amusement.“What’s funny?” H

    Sienna’s POVThe kiss happened so fast that my mind barely had time to catch up. His lips were warm against mine, moving softly, but I remained frozen in shock, my heart pounding in my chest.As he kissed me, Candice’s words echoed in my mind.“I think my brother likes you.”My eyes widened even more. Did he…? Was Candice right? Did he actually like me?Snapping out of my daze, I quickly pulled away, stepping back as my face heated. Ethan looked just as stunned and his expression was unreadable, as if he couldn’t believe what he had just done.“I should go,” I said hurriedly, hearing my own unsteady voice.Ethan let out a breath, running a hand through his hair. “Sienna, I…”“Just drive me home.” I cut in, regretting my sharp tone the moment the words left my lips. He was still my boss, and no matter what had just happened, I had no right to speak to him like that. But my mind was a jumbled mess, and right now, I just needed to get away.To my relief, he didn’t seem upset. He hesita

    Sienna’s POV“No!" I screamed as the man shoved Roman off him and used the opportunity to bolt for the door, escaping. My heart pounded as rushed to Roman and dropped to my knees beside him. He was lying there and groaning in pain with blood pooled beneath him, and the sight made my own blood run cold. My hands trembled as I hovered over his wound, unsure of what to do.“You're hurt.” I choked out, my voice shaking. Roman’s face had gone pale and his breathing was uneven. Yet, somehow, he wasn’t panicking. How could he be so calm with a wound this deep?!Instead, he gave me a weak smirk and said, "You're welcome, by the way."“Not funny.” I snapped through my tears. Pressing my hands against his wound, I tried to slow the bleeding. My other fingers fumbled as I grabbed my phone from the bed and quickly dialed 911.The call was answered after a few rings. "911, what’s your emergency?""Please, I need help!" I sobbed. "A man broke into my home and attacked me. He stabbed someone and

    Sienna’s POV I didn’t leave the hospital all because that psychopath Sabrina was there. And she had asked the doctors not to let me into Roman’s hospital room either because apparently, I was a ‘threat’. And so, I sat and waited at the waiting area. I couldn’t leave without seeing Roman. At least, to confirm the doctor’s words that he was fine. Plus, I didn’t trust Sabrina with Roman. That bitch was capable of anything. As I waited, I eventually dozed off on the bench. I wasn’t sure how long I had been asleep when I suddenly felt something light and feathery brushing against my face. I jolted awake in panic, my breath hitching, stopping as I was greeted by beautiful and concerned forest green eyes, his fingers caressing my face. “Roman.” I whispered, my voice light with relief. Without thinking, I jumped to my feet and pulled him into a tight hug. A wave of emotions crashed over me, making my eyes misty. “Ouch.” He grunted, followed by a low chuckle. Realizing I was pres

His voice was calm, but his eyes never left mine.Our handshake lingered a second too long until Candice’s cheerful voice shattered the tension.“Now that my two favorite people are finally meeting, I think this calls for a celebration!

    Roman’s POVLying her back on the bed, I kept my eyes locked to hers in a hungry stare that mirrored hers. Then, I knelt before her and proceeded to strip off my shirt. My cock was hard as fuck. Harder than ever. And as much I couldn’t wait to fuck the daylight out of her, I wanted to savor every moment. Knowing how unpredictable Sienna could be, I knew that opportunities like this were rare. Yet, there was something hot and thrilling about the chase —the uncertainty only added to my attraction to her.I claimed her lips once more, my fingers quickly released the buttons of her corporate shirt. Her soft moan hummed against my mouth as my fingertips grazed her bare skin. Smirking, I deepened the kiss, my hands drifting down to her skirt, which I slid off, leaving her in lacy black lingerie. Then, I pulled back, my gaze raking over her. Seeing her half naked in front of me did so many things to my head and body that I couldn’t explain. The evidence of my desire lay in my swollen and

    Sienna’s POVBy the time I finished fixing the campaign file, the office was almost empty. Everyone else had already gone home except for me.I made sure to complete everything and send a copy to Ethan’s email before leaving. I couldn’t afford to make him any angrier with me than he already was. Once I was done, I cleared my desk, shut down my computer, and grabbed my handbag. Exiting the company building, I stepped outside, letting out a deep breath as the cool night air brushed against my skin.The streets were quieter now and the usual New York city rush had wind down. I stood by the curb, waiting for a cab when a sleek black SUV slowed down in front of me.The tinted window rolled down, revealing Roman’s ever-handsome face.“Need a lift, sweetheart?”His voice was teasing and his lips were curved into that signature smirk of his.I couldn’t help the small smile that tugged at my lips. A faint blush crept up my cheeks at his cheeky line, but I kept my posture firm and crossed my a

My team and I are visiting orphanages this weekend to distribute donations.”We were all seated at the dining table, having breakfast. Livvy and Riley were dressed in their school uniforms, ready to leave after eating. I was also preparing to head to work. I couldn’t wait to escape this awkward meal.And it made me wonder how much longer I would have to endure mornings like this while I lived here momentarily.“I’ll wire the money to your account when I get to the office.” Roman replied flatly, taking a bite of his food.“Here.” Livvy’s gentle voice came from beside me. She picked up the juice jug and leaned toward Riley’s cup. “Let me fill it for you.”I was just about to smile at her thoughtfulness when Riley’s cold response caught me by surprise.“I don’t need your help. I can do it myself.” Riley shoved Livvy’s hand away a lit
