Bella's POV.I woke up relaxed, the warm sunlight peeking through the window casting a golden glow that spread across the room. A wide smile beamed on my face in remembrance of the breakfast date with Alex.Still in thoughts, my phone buzzed. Picking up my phone, Alex's name popped on my screen , he was calling. "Hey Bella , hope you slept good?" He enquired."It was good." My voice low and soft. "I just wanted to know when you would be ready, so I can be ready by then." He questioned "Okay, give me 45 min to 1 hour." I replied "Okay cool" I ended the call and got out of bed. I began planning my outfit, I needed to look sexy but simple. The vibes needed to read _' Effortless beauty.'I chose a flowy white blouse with a hint of lace trim, paired with a pair of dark wash skinny jeans that hugged my curves. I complimented the outfit with a black leather jacket to give a touch of edge.I made sure to take my time, making sure I was not missing any detail, it had to be perfect. I style
Bella's POV.As I entered his bedroom my eyes scanned the room, taking in the opulent decor and lavishing furnishings, the bed_ breathtaking, a majestic four poister dominated the space, it's crisp white lines and plush pillows inviting me to linger. Alex, meanwhile sat majestically on the bed, his eyes fixed on me, his gaze admiring. "Nice room you have here." I commented. My pheromones( perfume) spread across the room as I paced around. I could see the growing desire in his eyes, I smiled to myself knowing I had his attention, I felt a sense of power and control.I acted indifferent as I continued moving , swinging my hips slightly, my hair rustling against my skin, I had to utilize this opportunity."You smell good, Bella." He said , his voice deep and alluring, his eyes locked on mine."Thank you." I replied my voice barely above a whisper, my eyes never leaving his. """" Maintaining eye contact was another skill""""His gaze seemed to burn with intensity, his eyes roaming m
Bella's pov. The sun shined brightly welcoming the new day. A normal Monday morning, In fact it was not just a monday, it was the first day of my phase 2. Yesterday's event still lingered and I was going to use that to my advantage. I stretched swinging my legs over to the other side of the bed, my feet dangling in the air. I headed to the bathroom, took a refreshing shower, after which I picked a lovely outfit. I stared at my reflection in the mirror and I looked good. I needed to charge up for the day so I prepared my instant coffee and toast. weirdly enough, I was in the mood for some music, I felt so good. I put on the television switching to a music channel. I hummed in sync with the song that was being played as I sipped my coffee taking a bite from my toast. After I was done eating, I felt energised and ready for whatever was out there. I put on my shoes carried my bag and headed out the door and ofcourse my hair was perfect. Getting to the office everyone welcome
Bella POV."I want you..." Hearing this a deep smile drew on my face, this was it_ Success. "to leave my office" he added "Alex you should have told me about your feel..." I paused on realisation of the added clause. What! He wanted me to leave his office! When did the plan fail?"Bella!" He yelled, " Hope you heard what I said, I said I want you to leave my office." he added."Yes sir, I, I did!" I said "Okay, Then why are you not at the door!" His eyes shifted from where I was to the door. "I need to prepare for the meeting, so..." He let out with no single expression .I quickly turned leaving his office with my head down in shame. 'What just happened?'This question replayed in my head countless times, was he never interested in me? I should have known, "Bella! Bella!" I called my name repeatedly hitting my head, this embarrassment had taken my steez from a 100 to 0my leg repeatedly tapping the floor and my fingernail in my teeth_ I panicked. I took repeated glances at Alex th
Alex's POV"pff, you act like you want me!" she questioned.I gazed at Bella, my secretary, standing in my office. Her usually composed demeanor had given way to distraction."I want you...to leave my office," I diverted, my voice firm. I couldn't let myself get swayed by weak emotions. If I wanted her, I would get her on my terms, not by being vulnerable. Moreover her attitude today showed she was uninterested.Bella's eyes snapped back to mine, a hint of surprise flickering across her face. "Bella!" I yelled at her lost self, my tone sharper than intended. She seemed distant, lost in thought."Did you hear what I said?" I questioned, my eyes narrowing."Yes, sir! I...I did," she muttered, her voice barely audible."Okay, then why are you not at the door!" I let out, frustration creeping into my voice. The scheduled time for the meeting was approaching, and I couldn't afford distractions."You are my secretary, you should know about the meeting in few hours right! So, why are you sti
Bella's POV. "I like you Alex" I blurted, my voice barely above a whisper. 'what did i just say! there are lots of other things to say, why a confession!!' I wept on the inside. " Does it look like I care!" He snapped. It felt like the ground should open and consume me whole, did he have to be so cold! well I blame myself for making such confession and I blame Jake _ Even when we have separated he still finds a way to mess me up. "Bu-" I tried saying when he cut me short. "Get out, Bella!" he shot. His voice cold, I swallowed hard. Did he have to be so cruel, does he think i'm doing this because I want him!_ I need to make a come back, I'm never allowing any man walk over me again. " Trust me Alex, I dont care either. I said I like you because you are a private person but I guess that has just been redrawn_ I dislike loud people." I spat out, given off confidence. "And I guess your not so private afterall, mixing personal emotions with work_ Not so proffesional, Alex. I'l
Bella's POV. I wailed, my chest tight. The very people I swore to destroy fed me their feets to eat, I even apologised to that bitch camilla putting myself in a state where she could step over me. "look who it is! The righteous bitch who thinks everything should go her way." she let out, they both chuckled, "how does it feel being in the very spot that suits you _ beneath me." she spat. I got up wanting to ignore and head to where Alex was, when she suddenly slapped me, pushing me to the floor. "ouch" my mouth gave out as my skin rubbed against the hard floor. "That is where you belong! Next time in executive hangers like this, watch where your going because everyone here is higher than you." She said her voice dripping with hate. 'How was this thing, ever my bestfriend?' I questioned. "you're just a joke Bella, ". Jake sneered. "A pathetic little nobody. You should have stayed with me, I was willing to manage you but your greed dragged you to that very spot." He dropped.
Bella's pov As the jet touched down on the runway, I felt a rush of excitement. New York City, with its bright lights and endless energy, it was a city I had always wanted to visit. Alex stood, his movements fluid as he helped me up from my seat "Welcome to New York, Bella." I smiled, adjusting my poise. We disembarked, stepping into the crisp evening air. A sleek black car waited for us, its engine purring softly. "Darwin's villa?" I asked, recognizing the logo on the side. Alex nodded. "My family's estate. we'll be staying there for this trip. The driver, impeccably dressed, greeted us with a nod. "Mr. Alex, Ms. Bella. Welcome." As we drove through Manhattan's bustling streets, the city's vibrant lights blurred together. We crossed the Brooklyn Bridge, the Manhattan skyline giving way to the tranquil beauty of Long Island. Then finally we arrived the villa. The gates swung open, revealing a majestic estate nestled amidst lush gardens. The Darwin family crest adorned t

Bella's pov.I pulled into the hotel parking lot, my heart still racing from the stress of the day. I was eager to get out of my wine-stained dress and into something more comfortable.I entered my hotel room, locking the door behind me. I kicked off my heels and began to peel off my dress, letting it fall to the floor. I slipped off my bra and panties, freedom was the best.I walked over to the mirror, examining my reflection. My hair was still perfect, my makeup still intact. I smiled to myself, feeling confident and beautiful.I grabbed a robe from the closet and slipped it on, tying the belt around my waist. I then made my way to the minibar, pouring myself a glass of champagne.As I sipped my drink, I waited for Alex's call. I knew it would come soon, and I was eager to hear his voice.I sat down on the bed, my phone beside me. I took a deep breath, feeling a sense of anticipation build up inside me.The phone rang, and I smiled. I knew it was him."Hello?" I answered, my voice h
