** Spencer **

I relax inside the walls of the magnificent office, which is decorated to my taste. There is a glass demarcation with the other small space being carved out as my personal assistant’s office. Even with the sharing of space, I am satisfied with the size of my own office.

This proves how much progressive my company has made over the years of my absence. I sighed in relief that things were turning out well for me in the business industry, but the untold shadows of my past were lurking around my mind. I can feel it.

While I have not been contacted by anyone from my past, I feel like it would be best if I don’t come across any of them ever again. Because right now, I can feel the rage as it burns inside me. I call myself a coward for running away in the first place. I should have stood my ground and took back what belonged to me.

“Spencer?” A female voice called my name softly.

The first person that comes into my mind is Sydney. I have been thinking about her ever since we h

    “Max, do you think that Miriam really meant what she said?” I asked in deep thoughts.“About what?”“Getting married to me if she clocks thirty and is still single.”Max groaned in frustration. “Did you fall for that crap?”I ruffle my hair in confusion. Even though Miriam had debunked whatever she had just said, covering it up as a joke. I still have that feeling that she was dead serious about it. I got the chills because I’m aware that Miriam likes me, not just as a friend anymore. The likeness is slowly becoming more intimate but the issue is that it’s coming from her side, not mine.My heart has fluttered for only one woman and she was Sydney. The one night stand wasn’t like others that I forgot about easily. This one was still fresh in my mind and made me feel hard anytime I remember how beautiful her moans were. So even if Miriam opened several doors of opportunities for me to date her, I would choose Sydney one thousand times over her.Don’t get me wrong - I value my friendsh

    I stared nervously at myself in the mirror. I was scared - so scared - that I was going to make a tragic mistake and ruin everything. I don’t want to blow this up, this could be the only chance I have and closest to getting an interview let alone a job.Lydia entered the bedroom with a cup of tea - drinking coffee is strictly forbidden - and handed me a cup with a nod of approval as she assessed my appearance.“You look like the typical personal assistant,” Lydia said.“Are you sure that they are going to like my dress at all?” I asked nervously.“For goodness sake, you are going to an interview, not a date.”“But the skirt looks bigger on me, like the overall uniform of an apprentice,” I complained.Lydia sighed. “You are pregnant, Sydney. It’s not advisable to wear tight clothes to avoid certain circumstances that might not be good. Listen to me, you are perfect and I’m sure that if you worry less about your appearance and focus more on building your confidence, you will get the job.

    “Great! You can meet with Betty at the reception centre for more information about your new job,” he grinned at me and stood, returning to his chair and turning back to look at whatever it was.“Thank you,” I muttered and stumbled out. This interview was an intense one and I still feel hot from his close proximity. “How did it go?” Betty asked when she saw me.“I got the job. He said that I should meet you for more details,” I said, trying hard to contain my excitement. “Congratulations, Sydney,” Betty said.“Thanks.”“So here is what you need to know. Spencer Group Limited is one of the best business corporations in our city and since our CEO is back officially, double efforts will have to be made in order to keep the comps running on the top. Here is a daily schedule for your weekly activities, anything other important schedule or appointment will be conveyed to you later ,” Betty explained.I collected the paper and went through it carefully. “Thank you for this,” I said.Betty w

    “What?” I asked. Fear has engulfed me and my voice has surrendered to the fear that was in me.I don't understand why he is acting this way. Just last week, he was wrapped around my body and banging me like his life depended on it, he was also sweet and warm to me. Now, he was cold and I merely recognize him as the man I fucked last week. Snapping back to the present, I listen to him as he vents his anger on me.“What the hell is this?” He repeated angrily.I gulped and replied, “I served you coffee.”Spencer slammed his hand on the desk and groaned in frustration, he gave me a few murderous glares and I felt like the earth should open up and swallow me whole.We stayed in an awkward silence for about five minutes before Spencer spoke out, this time his voice was calm.“I don't drink black and bland coffee like the one you prepared for me. I prefer creamy coffees with a measured amount of sugar in them and it must be warm - always warm and mushy. Do you know why I like my coffee to be

    I walked into Spencer's with the most dreaded fear on my face. The lady who I clashed with earlier was staring at me with a mocking smile on her face. He should have briefed on the fact that he already has a girlfriend which I thought was the reason why he was suddenly acting cold towards me.“You asked me to come to your office, sir,” I said forcefully as I stood in front of them.“Yes. Miriam was telling me about how rude you spoke to her earlier today, why?” He asked.So Miriam was her name, huh? I thought in my mind. It was obvious since she was his girlfriend, whatever I said was never going to be a solid reason for her complaints. Nevertheless, I had to reply to him.“I'm deeply sorry for what happened. It was a simple misunderstanding between the both of us,” I replied.“Misunderstanding? You were acting like you are the boss here!” Miriam accused.“I wasn't aware that you portrayed my character like that, it wasn't in my intention to get such a bad impression from you.”She w

    ** Spencer **I returned home with a heavy feeling in my heart. I keep on thinking about Sydney and how the day went with her, it wasn't really what I expected it to be.Okay, I have to admit that I was mean and cold to her. I know how bad it made her feel but how can I come closer to her again when she was still putting on her wedding ring? This means that she was not getting the divorce or maybe she was just lying to me about how complicated her marriage was.Angry at myself for constantly thinking about her, I dash into the shower and run a cold shower. Her soft body wrapped around me makes me expel a soft moan from my lips.She was so fucking sweet that I keep yearning for her more and more, which I have never done for any woman before. What is so special about Sydney Talker, a married woman for that matter, and why can't I get her out of my head?It was obvious that she didn't even want me again and just wanted to get her work done and over with. But that magnetic force that keep

    While working on the documents that Maya had brought in earlier, Max came into my office. “Hey, you didn't have breakfast this morning. Let's go and get some food to eat,” Max suggested. I nodded and picked up my phone. I texted the card details to Sydney but she hasn't replied to me yet, I wondered if she was truly shopping since I've not received any debit alert yet. “Are you expecting something?” Max asked. “No, why do you ask?” “You are concentrating on your phone,” he observed. “You won't believe what happened this morning. When I came into the office, Sydney was looking so sexy that I almost banged her on her desk,” I told him. Max's eyes widened in shock. “I thought you said you were going to forget about anything intimate with her!” “I know that I promised but I couldn't resist her charming appearance. I grabbed her and kissed her passionately but then, Maya came in and interrupted our kissing,” I groaned. “Good thing that Maya came in. You would have done what is in

    ** Sydney ** Instead of going to the mall to shop as I was instructed, I went straight to the hospital where Lydia was working. She was on duty and was super excited when she saw me as I came in.“Sydney, what a pleasant surprise for me to see you here,” she said and hugged me tight.“I had a horrible experience with Spencer this morning and he had to even send me to the shopping mall,” I explained.“What happened?” “We kissed and almost banged in his office if not for the interruption of one of the senior clerks. He said it was because of my outfit, that it was too seductive and he couldn't handle the seduction so he gave me his credit card and instructed me to get decent outfits for work,” I sighed as I explained to her.Lydia shook her head. “Sydney, you can quit this job if you know that you can't handle the heat between you and Spencer. Instead of falling helplessly into his arms like that, you can avoid it by staying at home.”“I can't just do that, Lydia. Remember the reason

    Her eyes lit up as soon as the club lights were turned on. Tonight was going to be hectic, just like every other night in DaSilver’s clubhouse. Sophia silently prayed for tonight to be better than the past few nights since this week started. “Sophia Bennett! Are these guests going to serve themselves?” The sarcastic tone of her manager, Mr Meyers, hit her hard.She turned around swiftly to stare at him with her big doe eyes, “Not at all, sir.”A smirk curved at the corners of Mr Meyers’ lips, “Then stop staring at me like a confused deer and get to work!” He snapped at her.Sophia gathered herself and composure together and scrambled out of his presence. Once she was out of sight, she sighed and tied the apron around her waist. This was how a bad night usually begins with, a terrible scolding from her manager or a superior colleague.“You might want to stop zoning out and get to work, Bennett,” another scornful voice reached her ears. It was from Joanne, the oldest worker in the cl

    Elizabeth was sitting calmly in the living room, her legs were crossed and I could feel the elegance as it emanated from her calmness. My heartbeat was louder than the sound that came from the movie that she was watching in the television."Mom, you're here," Spencer said to get her attention.She turned around and smiled at him, when she looked at me, she maintained a mild expression before looking back at her son. "Yes, Spencer. I was bored at my place so I decided to come over and see you and Sydney," she replied to him.Spencer ordered a tray of fruits for his mom while we settled down to keep her company."You are looking healthy, Sydney," she complimented me."Thank you," I said with nervousness. I felt like my nervous system was going to break down any minute from now."Spencer, can you spare me twenty minutes of a private moment with Sydney?" Elizabeth asked her son.Spencer nodded and stood up, "Okay."As soon as he left, my heart sank further because I thought that Elizabeth

    ** Sydney**I felt his touch on my hair and earlobe and neck, his hands were all over my face but his touch was gentle, sweet and arousing. I stirred my eyes open slowly, I didn't want to wake up in the first place because the last few events have been exhausting for me.Learning the truth in the most painful manner was exhausting enough for me, I was glad that I was done with the Talker's family although it was not yet official. Aiden had really used my heart and broken it into a million pieces but in the darkest of hearts, I have found Spencer and he was willing to be my ride or die for life and nothing was going to change that forever."Good morning, sleepy head," Spencer murmured in my eyes and I giggled, that sweet feeling of being a loved woman has returned to me again."Spencer, why are you disturbing I and the baby so early in the morning?" I asked, pretending to be angry at him.He kissed my forehead and then my baby bump that was more visible now, we were almost at sixteen w

    ** Sydney**I stood on the balcony of my room, looking outside at the clear sky and sun as it shone bright this morning. My hands subconsciously rubbed my belly bump that was becoming visible as each day passed by. My mind was zoned out on the various events that had just happened in the past few weeks.The whole new experience I had when I was with Spencer and how it died down pretty quickly unlike how I expected it to be. My thoughts were randomly thinking of how strong I have been while going through the drama of being involved with Spencer Martins. The love I felt we shared - was it even real?Or was it just an infatuation? Was I too desperate or scared of being alone that I couldn't even shed a little bit of hope of restoring my marriage?Now look at me here, back with my Aiden and his family because no matter how far I run, I would still come back to Aiden's arms. That was the power of destiny and this was how it wanted its game to go.I only played along to it and probably migh

    ** Spencer **I caught her right before she fell flat on the floor, her sleeping face was looking so calm and peaceful. I make her sit on the chair and relax her body, then I part her lips slightly and place mine on it, pumping air into her lungs.After thirty minutes of this continuous attempt, her eyes fluttered open. I handed her a glass of water to drink so it could calm her nerves down.“You passed out earlier, I figured out that it could be a sign of weakness so I've decided to drop you off at home and let you rest for the day,” I said.I feel like this was what she needed most. A few hours of rest and she will be fine. I don't want to stress Sydney out that much especially since Max saw her in the hospital earlier. She might not open up to tell me what's wrong with her, but I know that she's feeling exhausted and needs rest.“I'm okay, you don't have to let me do this. I came here to work and get paid, I have to keep to that protocol,” she declined.“Why?” I asked.“Why what?”

    ** Collins **I parked in front of Spencer's Group company. I can't even remember the last time I stepped foot around this place. I haven't been around this area but because of my current mission, I guess I will be hanging around here for a while.It's not like I don't have a business to be busy with. Fortunately, I inherited the Martins company after Elizabeth and Spencer disappeared from the city. The company was handed over to me at a very young age, however, due to my mismanagement, it went over the hill.Currently, the company is on the verge of going bankrupt which is why old man Lee, who is my grandfather and Spencer's grandfather too, decided to put me into politics. The aim was to become the mayor of the city and rule over the people. With this new aim in mind, the bankruptcy of Martins's company did not matter to me or old man Lee.What would shatter us now if I did not make it to the primary elections, which is why we are set out to eliminate whatever it is that is on our w

    Sweet trails of kisses wake me up from my deep sleep. I stirred up in bed and opened my eyes slowly. Spencer kissed my lips briefly and smiled at me.“Good morning, my love,” he greeted sweetly.“Acting sweet really suits you a lot,” I said and he chuckled.“Better get used to it. Meanwhile, I ordered some foodstuff while you were still sleeping,’’ he informed me.I pouted like a child, “I don't have the strength to prepare a meal right now.”“You have to stress yourself or my baby. Few weeks of attending a cooking class when I was in my early twenties is going to pay off,” he replied.“Really? You are going to make breakfast for me?” I asked excitedly.He nodded and got up from the bed. “You can come and watch me.”I giggled and joined him in the kitchen, helping him out to prepare a lemonade for our meal. However, it wasn't long until I heard Lydia calling my name.“Sydney, where are you? Oh …” she said. The last part slipped out when she saw Spencer, who was wearing an apron and co

    I wanted so much more…So much power, so much fame…And I still wanted the woman I loved …“Are you crazy, Collins? How dare you text me after everything that you've done to Spencer?” Miriam asked me as she walked into the coffee shop that I invited her to.“It's nice to see you again, Miriam,” I smiled at her.She rolled her eyes and sat down. “Whatever you're telling me, better be quick about it and don't expect any favors from me,” she snapped.I grinned widely. She was always acting tough, trying to seal her fear and emotion. I like her for that but I wanted her to be free and open with me. I have to make her understand that I'm not the bad person here. If I could just show her the brighter side of things, then she would realize that it is me that she needs. Miriam might be acting cool but I know that she's still greedy on some things.“Relax, stop acting feisty. It doesn't suit you at all. I called you here because I've missed you,” I said.Miriam scoffed. She glared at me so har

    ** Collins ** There was chaos in the house. I could tell from how the environment was tense and awkward. I was angry at Tessa and in turn, old man Lee was angry at me. We met in the tea room to discuss. The servants poured out the tea but none of us touched it. The rage was too much to drink tea right now.“It was one simple task that was given to you to get done and you couldn't even do it. The deal here was to get rid of Spencer, not spare his life!” Old man Lee shouted at me.“This was all his fault. He cowered at the end and spared their lives,” Tessa said.“Mind you that hurting or killing my brother is something that I should be doing alone. I never asked you to do it for me,” I said to Tessa with gritted teeth.She rolled her eyes, “This is not a kid's game or whatever you think this is. There's a task to complete and the reward would get you millions of dollars but you chose to be a coward instead of fighting to get it done.”I clenched my fists in anger. My heart was burning
