I wanted to pull my hair out while waiting for the elevator to reach the ground floor. How can I be so stupid? I didn't think this through. I don't even have a plan! What will I do once I get out of here? Where will I go? I have no money! I don't know anyone outside the ring.

I definitely won't go back there! Where will I go?

Damn it.

"But I'm already here," I whispered to myself. "I'll deal with it once I get out of here."

Just then, the elevator dinged, signaling it had reached its destination. As soon as its doors opened, I ran as fast as I could. I looked around frantically, trying to navigate where the exit was.

It seems like I am in the basement parking of the building. There were cars lined up in the well-lit area. I started running while looking around. I have to hurry. I don't know how much time I have to get out of here!

"Damn it! Why aren't there signs?" I huffed frustratedly, my head turning left and right. I couldn't see anyone I could ask either!

So I just kept running ai

    I'd been standing for quite some time under the cold running water, but the heat inside me was still very much alive!"Damn you, Vladimir!" I cursed him inside my head. Is this some kind of punishment? Because it's working! I feel so damn frustrated right now!I can still feel his lips on mine. His taste still lingers in my mouth. I closed my eyes to reminisce about the feel of his rough, calloused palm against my smooth skin.I shook my head when I realized what I was doing. What is happening to me? Did that old man bewitch me?I tried so hard to control my growing desire, but as I caressed my skin with the lather, the more I felt the heat between my legs. Until I finally caved into the devil.I closed my eyes once again and let my hands wander on my body. My right hand grabbed one of my taut peaks while the other moved further down to play with the sensitive nub between my core, imagining it was Vladimir's hands worshipping my body.I slumped on the bed, buried my face in a pillow, a

    "Hey, wake up," a deep baritone voice roused me from my deep slumber.My eyelids fluttered open only to be greeted by the deepest, most mesmerizing blue eyes I had ever seen. A smile stretched my lips. What a great way to start my day!"Stop smiling like an idiot!" he snapped, waking me up from any fantasy that I was having at the moment."Huh?" I jolted upright. Now, I'm wide awake! I wasn't dreaming. A gorgeous but nasty human being is in front of me. My husband, Vladimir Lewis. Why is he so upset already? Did he have a bad night?"Get ready. We have a flight to catch," he said."A flight?!" I echoed, suddenly getting excited. "To where? Are we going on our honeymoon?!""Enough with the questions," he said impatiently. "Just go and get ready. We'll be leaving in an hour.""But wait... I haven't packed anything yet!" I argued."I had Cora prepare everything that you might need. Your change of clothes are in the closet," he said."Oh, okay," I smiled.We're going on a trip! I'm so ex

    I can't help my grin whenever I think about it. I don't know why but I am so sure about it. We made out a few times and not once had I felt it. What else could be the reason?That must be it. I wanted to sympathize with him. He is a good catch. He looked so damn good despite his age. He has the money and obviously the status even though I don't know him. His aura exudes dominance and authority. To know that he is lacking in that department makes me feel bad.What a waste!"Have you lost your mind?" for the first time since we made out on his private jet, I heard his voice again."Huh?" I frowned, wondering what he was talking about."You look like a delusional bitch with that creepy smile," he snapped.Oh!I grinned sheepishly. If only he could read my mind. I'm sure he will be less arrogant."Don't mind me," I smiled. "I'm just having a good time. By the way, thank you for taking me here."I won't bring out my ace yet. This isn't the right time. I need to play my cards right."Whatev

    "Damn you!" I screamed behind his back but he had already left. I doubt it if he heard me."Argh!" I scrunched my hair in frustration! I never expected our confrontation to turn out that way! I really thought I'd have him at the palm of my hand after I dropped the bomb to his face!How can he be so full of himself?"Ugh!" I groaned. I squirmed when I felt the dampness between my thighs."What the hell is wrong with me?!" I snapped when I realized what happened. How can his roughness turn me on? We were in the middle of an argument and yet there I was salivating for him!I squeezed my eyes shut! This is so embarrassing!My only relief is the thought that he didn't know. But still... How can I lust about him when I know he probably can't satisfy me? Well, there are other ways but... Ugh!Stop it, Ava!I stomped my feet like a child while heading to the suite's bedroom. I jumped on the bed, recalling our conversation inside my head.He dismissed my accusation by blaming me! What did he sa

    How can I face him after that?Should I just go and drown myself in the ocean? Okay, that's being dramatic but really, I don't think I have the guts to even be in the same room with him.Why did he have to witness that? Heck, why do I even have to do that?! Should I get myself checked? I never had this problem before since I was in the syndicate. Every night, clients are willing to book my services for a night or two. Or worse, they book multiple clients for a night!I've never gone this long without sex. Maybe that's the problem. I have gotten so used to it that now that I'm not having any, I'm having withdrawal symptoms, just like what happens to people who use illegal drugs.But wait... Does that mean...Am I addicted to sex?!The thought alone made me horrified!That's impossible. How can I be addicted to something I rarely even find pleasure in? I was just forced to do it. Right. I can't be addicted to it.Maybe it was Vladimir. I'll admit that I am attracted to him. I find him ho

    He's awake!I tugged my hand out of his firm grab but he gripped it tighter, making me wince in pain."What the hell are you doing?" he queried, glancing down his exposed torso.Here we go again."Uh, nothing. I was just fixing this," I quickly pulled up the sheets to cover him all the way up to his face.He was taken aback. His grip on my hand loosened, giving me the chance to escape. I ran out of there immediately. People were looking at me as I sprinted my way out but I didn't care. All I want is to get away from Vladimir as much as possible.I was gasping for air when I finally made it out."Gosh, he would be the death of me," I muttered while trying to catch my breath.But what am I supposed to do now? That was my only hope to get my freedom back. I sat on the beach while staring at the waves gently rolling off the shore one after the other. What if I try to escape now? Where will I go? I don't even know where we were except that we are on an island.Should I just accept my fate o

    I don't know what to think anymore. Horrible thoughts are starting to overwhelm me. I took a deep breath, holding the air in before diving as deep as I could. My eyes stung as I tried to see underwater but I still couldn't see him anywhere."Where the fuck are you?!" I snapped angrily after swimming back to the surface.I did it again and again until my body couldn't take it anymore. My limbs are sore, and so are my eyes.I looked at the yacht from a distance. Is he already there? I didn't think he would be too heartless to leave me alone here without telling me but I'd rather have him there. My whole body is now trembling in fear and exhaustion but I tried my best to swim back to the yacht. I propped myself up the ladder despite my aching limbs. I was gasping for air when I made it."Vladimir!" I called him but just like earlier, I didn't get any response. He's not here either."Damn it."I ran to the deck to look around the area. I can't see anyone or anything on the water. Not even

    I groaned when his hand grasped the base of my neck to angle my face just the way he wanted so that he could deepen the kiss. The fine hairs on my back stood to their ends as fine shivers crawled through my skin.He held my waist and lifted me like I weighed nothing. The next thing I knew, I was already on his lap, straddling him. I cupped his face with both hands as I shoved my tongue inside his mouth. I wanted to taste him, to explore every corner of his mouth greedily. Rough but passionate.I sucked on his tongue making him groan like a wounded animal. The primal sound he made excited me more. I kept on kissing him as though my life depended on it until he decided to dominate it. He's like a ravenous predator feasting on its prey.All I could do was moan as he sucked and tugged my lips over and over again. My back arched when I felt his hand snaked inside my sweatshirt. He began tracing the curve of my waist while my fingers grabbed his hair, pulling him even closer.I threw my head

    VLADIMIRNo. This can't be right.I glanced at Blaze who was looking at me apologetically."I know it's hard to believe, but everything points to her," he said.I harshly wiped my face with my palm. It's unbelievable. I can't imagine how she was able to orchestrate something like this.Well, the apple doesn't fall far from the tree. I thought bitterly.I squeezed my eyes shut before looking at the files Blaze had given me when I arrived. I scanned them again, making sure I wasn't seeing things. I gritted my teeth while reading.They were complete with bank transactions, emails, and phone calls. I don't know how he got all of this but it doesn't matter now, does it?Everything was traced back to Riva. Riva!My seemingly innocent wife. Her sweet smile flashed at the back of my mind. How could she do this to me? I never once suspected her. Even now, with everything my men found against her, I still find it hard to believe.How could she do this to me?How? Why? Some of the bank transacti

    YVONNEMy head is reeling. I stood behind the closed door, replaying everything that happened inside my head. To say I was dumbfounded is an understatement.I'm in love with you.I can still hear his husky voice and feel his warm breath fanning against the sensitive skin on my neck. Speechless after he said those words, I didn't even try to look at him, even though I could feel his glances while driving back to my unit.I don't know how to process it. It seemed unrealistic. Did he really say those words? Was I dreaming?I pinched my arm so hard to prove that I am awake. I groaned when pain hit me.Shit. It was real!"Aah!" I screamed so loud that I must have woken up the entire building!Damn it! I jumped into the daybed and pushed my face against a pillow, trying to muffle my screams against it.I'm losing my mind!How can he be in love with me? I can't believe this. He must be playing with me! But why would he lie about it?I rolled to my back and stared at the ceiling as if his fac

    VLADIMIR"I promise I'll make it right."Her whole body became rigid in my arms when I held her. I know this sounds like an empty promise, but I meant it."I..." I took a deep breath. I turned her around to look at her. I wanted to see her face. I wanted her to see how genuine my feelings were."I'm in love with you," I told her while staring deep into her eyes. Her lips parted in shock. I had the strongest urge to ravish those lips, but this wasn't the time for that."Do you understand?" I asked when she didn't even blink.I cupped her face, pressing my forehead against her. I can hear her ragged breaths as if she was on the verge of a panic attack."I love you," I whispered. "But I need to make things right this time. I need to... end things with Riva so we can start on a clean slate."She remained dumbfounded. She was just staring at me as if I'd grown another head."Yvonne," I gently called her name. "Did you hear me?"She only nodded but still didn't say anything. I guess it was

    YVONNE"Leave," even I was surprised at how my voice turned out full of conviction. I stared at the darkness in front of us.We were still in the middle of the road when he suddenly stopped the car.He chuckled humorlessly, probably from my audacity to give him an order like that. But I don't care anymore. I just need to do what I have to protect my heart from further breaking into pieces. Because if not me, nobody will."Stop playing with me," I said."I don't know what kind of game you are playing right now," I told him, my voice dripping with raw emotions. I didn't even try to hide how I really felt.I am confused and devastated. His mere presence is enough to fuck me in the head. Every time I see him around, it gives me a glimpse of hope. I don't want to. God knows I don't want to, but my stupid heart couldn't help but assume.Assume that he was here for me. Assume that he missed me. The more I see him, the more I expect him to talk to me and tell me he wants me back.It was pathe

    VLADIMIR What was I thinking? I thought, staring at her as she obviously checked out everything in the room except me. How could I become so impulsive around her? I shouldn't have dragged her here in the pretense that I wanted to talk. I just wanted to be with her for a little longer and that's the only thing I could come up with when it seemed like she couldn't wait to get away from me. "What do we need to talk about?" she asked impatiently. I badly wanted to pull her closer, to wrap her in my arms and inhale her intoxicating scent to calm my shit down. But I stopped myself. As much as I wanted to confess to her, I wanted to settle everything first. I wanted to do it right this time. I should end things with Riva, before even thinking of taking her back. I owe it to both of them. What should I tell her though? My mind was blank. Fuck it. "What?" she muttered while looking at me with a puzzled expression on her face. It felt like I was saved by the bell when I heard a knock

    YVONNEI chose a semi-formal emerald green dress. I took it from the rack and held it in front of me, imagining how I would look if I wore it."It suits you."I gasped audibly when I heard his voice behind me. I turned to look just to find him standing at the closet's entrance. I gulped when I caught his gaze lingering on my body.My cheeks heated up profusely. I can feel the temperature around us suddenly rising. I couldn't help but glance at the air conditioning unit in the room. It's turned off. It's definitely the reason why it's getting hotter here.I'm sure it had nothing to do with Vladimir leaning languidly against the doorframe, looking so damn... Fine..."Uhm, thanks," I murmured, fighting the urge to bite my lip. "I'll take this for the opening ceremony. I hope you won't mind."He looked around the closet. I noticed his jaw ticked when he must have realized that everything was still there."I don't care," he looked back at me. This time, he stared into my eyes intently. "Yo

    YVONNE The silence that greeted me in the apartment was deafening. I suddenly wished I let Selene come with me again. I sighed as I plopped myself into the daybed. I stared at the ceiling as if it was interesting. I felt so exhausted after another day of pretending I was fine. I'm not. I even think I am on the brink of insanity. I'm barely holding on by a thread so as not to fall on the other side. I don't know what I want anymore. I want him gone when he's around, but my heart screams for him when he's not. Damn it. If that's not insane, then I don't know what else is! "Ugh!" I groaned loudly. I should seriously stop thinking about him! I harshly get out of bed to find something else to do to occupy my mind. I winced when I realized there was no food left. I was quite hungry because I had not eaten anything while in the shelter. I sighed. I had no choice but to go out. I can also drop by the store to buy some stocks. I just gathered my hair up into a messy bun, then grabbed

    VLADIMIRI woke up with a heavy feeling on my chest. I pried my lids open just to find Riva sleeping soundly. Half of her body is almost draped on my chest. Her arms were tightly wrapped around me as if she was afraid to let me go.I sighed. I guess she has the right to feel this way. It's my fault. I haven't done anything to give her the assurance she needed.I can't even if I wanted to. Not after finally accepting how I truly felt.I let out a long sigh before gently untangling her from me. I was careful not to wake her up. I don't want another confrontation. Not after last night.I still feel emotionally drained from our conversation. Today, I just want to breathe without the emotional baggage that's been weighing down my shoulders for a while now."Is there any update?" I asked as soon as I arrived at the warehouse.Our operation is back on track, although I refused to deal with clients who turned their backs on me in exchange for a few dollars in savings."We still haven't found

    YVONNEThe next morning, I woke up with a terrible headache. I already forgot most of what happened after finishing the bottle of tequila."Ugh," I grunted as I rolled out of bed. I barely slept last night but I still needed to wake up early to go to work. Dragging my feet to the bathroom, I went under the cold shower to wake my senses up.Selene was still sleeping soundly when I finished. I went to the kitchen in just my bathrobe to whip up a quick breakfast for us. To my dismay, my refrigerator was almost empty. I needed to go to the supermarket later. Luckily, I found a few strips of bacon in the freezer and still a few pieces of eggs left.I popped some bread into the toaster while I fry the bacon and eggs. I checked the pantry, waiting for the bacon to cook to take note of things I needed to restock.After I was done cooking, I set everything on the table and then proceeded to change into my work clothes. I pulled up a pair of stretchable pinstriped dress pants. Then I put on a s
