Jayden paced around Zendaya's room anxiously waiting for her to come out, but it had been hours, and she hadn't come out yet.

It would be a lie if he said he wasn't nervous to go talk to her, as he knew she was in a really bad mood due to what he has said.

He hadn't meant to insult her by mentioning Matthew, but he was trying to tell her that she should be careful of whom she trusted or opened up to. His words had just come out wrongly.

As he thought about the matter, he found it rather strange that Anil showed up out of nowhere.

He hardly believed in coincidences, and you didn't think it was a coincidence that the guy had showed up to the same coffee shop Zendaya had entered.

Without wasting his time, he brought out his phone to call Lan. “I need you to find out everything you can about Anil Loran.”

He said to his head of security after the latter had answered his call.

He came distracted when he heard the sounds of footsteps approaching him. Upon turning, he found Myra coming to h

    “I ruined your shirt,” Zendaya stated as she backed away. She didn’t have it in her to feel embarrassed about the fact that she had cried in front of Jayden. “It’s just a shirt,” he brushed off as he reached out and used his thumb to wipe the tears off her cheeks. Zendaya tensed due to what he did, and she felt her stomach tie in a knot once more while her cheeks turned red.Jayden stared at the woman in front of him. He remembered asking himself if what he felt towards her was a mistake or just lust. The answer was always the same.He didn't just want her, he needed her. He always felt his entire body come alive with just the simplest things she would do, and it had never been so with any other woman.Whenever he was with other women, he found himself unable to stand them except if it was purely for his pleasure, but with Zendaya, it was different, and he knew why.His bulge suddenly hardened just by looking at her, and he cursed his body for reacting like that in such a serious si

    Without wasting time, he turned to leave, but Zendaya held his hand as her chest heaved up and down due to how heavy she was breathing.Jayden smiled without turning to face her. She was either scared to go ahead or just being stubborn.Either way, she needed the push, and he was more than happy to give it to her. She was the reason he had gone a long time without getting intimate with anymore and unlike others who were strictly to help him achieve his sexual climax, it was different with Zendaya as all she had to do was breathe, and he would feel himself getting turned on.“Yes?” He raised his eyebrows when he turned to face her.“I-i,” Zendaya stuttered as she struggled to get the words out. She wasn't drunk this time, and so there would be no excuse if she decided to go on with what she had in mind.Jayden’s your enemy and your friend's brother! The rational part of herself screamed, but she paid no attention to it. “You what?” He tilted his head at her.“No strings attached!” Sh

    'Fuck, love!” Jayden cursed as his body clenched tightly, already aching hard. He had planned on torturing her by taking things extremely slow till she was begging for him to fuck her wildly, but that was punishment for him as well.He immediately backed away and unbuckled his pants, quickly removing everything else, leaving him naked.It was Zendaya's turn to let her eyes feast on his body, and Jayden felt more aroused when her eyes stopped at his standing member down there. The fact that her eyes widened in horror made him smile.He immediately crawled back on top of her to run his palm down at the centre of her chest and then on every part of her body.“Jayden, please just do it,” she moaned as the heat of desire was consuming her whole body just because of his touch, and it was torture. “Not so fast, love” Jayden hushed as he continued to caress her body, running his palm further south across her stomach.This time, it was not only his palm, but his lips that moved on her body a

    After he was done thoroughly licking her juices, he came back up and went straight to her neck. “You're driving me insane, and I can't hold myself any longer.”When he raised his head to look at his work, he smiled on seeing the hickey on her neck. The mark that clearly showed she was his and his alone. He then proceeded to seal her lips into a passionate kiss once again. No matter how much he kissed her, he couldn't get enough.Zendaya could taste herself on his lips, but she did not mind as that was coupled with Jayden's tender lips and his sweetness.“Jayden,” she called and he answered.“Please just put it in me,” she pleaded, not caring about the fact that she sounded desperate. He had mentioned reaching his limits, but he still didn't do anything about it.“As my queen wishes,” he stated as he positioned himself in between her legs.“This might hurt a bit,” he informed her as he slowly started to make his way into her. He felt Zendaya's nails pierce into his back, and she bit

    Matthew sighed as he made his way into his apartment. He had received yet another rejection for the job he applied for, and he ran his fingers through his hair roughly. Zendaya wasn't responding to his texts and this made him on edge as she was the only one who could bring him out of the hell he was living in. If things didn’t change, he would have to move out of the luxurious apartment, as he wouldn’t have the money to finance it. “Hello, Matthew,” he heard someone say to him, and he quickly turned on the light so he could see who it was. His mouth dropped wide open when he saw that it was Kiandra seated on the sofa in the living room. There was something that always unnerved him about Zendaya’s mother, and he couldn’t quite figure out what it was. Maybe it was the fact that there was more that met the eyes when it came to the matron of the Valencia family. As opposed to her husband, she seemed calm and nice, but there was something that told him she wasn’t as she presented

    What was she thinking when she decided to sleep with Jayden? She asked herself as she ran her fingers through her hair roughly.She had been overwhelmed by what had happened, agreed, but why did it have to be Jayden Gerano out of all people? She yelled into the pillow once more.A wave of emotions hit her, and she found herself unable to process everything. Regret, shame, anger, everything came flooding in at once, and she cursed in annoyance as she got out of bed to go to the bathroom.Unlike other times, she didn’t have an excuse for what had happened as sleeping with Jayden was what she had decided to do and so the emotions were as raw as they came.Getting to the mirror, she turned on the faucet and splashed water on her face as she needed to clear her thoughts in order to think of the next step.Her eyes then widened in horror when she looked at herself in the mirror to see that Jayden had left a glaring hickey on her neck.‘Come on!’ She hissed in annoyance as she examined it.

    Wait, that was all it took for Jayden to get off her back? Zendaya thought to herself, and she frowned over the thought.Did that mean he had slept with her without intending to have any attachments? Even though she was the one who had suggested it, it felt as though she was the one at the losing end as she was unable to get him out of her mind.“What?!” Jayden asked her when he saw her glaring at him.“Nothing,” Zendaya answered, even though she was thinking of ways to kill him in her head. Not wanting to be around him any further, she got up and left the dining table.His words from when they had first slept together rang through her head, and she wondered if he still thought she was cheap, hence the reason he didn't think too much about the fact that they had just slept together.Turning, she headed back to the dining table where he was still seated, and she sat back in her chair.“Tell me something, Jayden, do you plan on ever falling in love and settling down with a woman?” She

    “Zendaya!” Jayden called as he knocked on the door. It had been over an hour since he spoke to his father and he had spent it thinking of a plan to get Zendaya closer to him.“Zendaya,” he called again when she didn't answer him the first time. Was she sleeping? He wondered, and he shook his head at that thought.Knowing Zendaya, she was probably awake and avoiding him. “She isn't opening, Mr Valencia,” he then said and in less than ten seconds the door opened to reveal a wide-eyed Zendaya.“Where's my father?” She inquired when she didn't see Lucas anywhere around.“He's right where you left him, at the Valencia mansion,” Jayden told her and Zendaya realized what he had done. Without wasting time, she moved to close the door, but he was faster than her as he held the door down.“What do you want, Jayden?” Zendaya sighed in resignation when she saw that there was no keeping him out of her room.She however made sure she kept her distance from him as the last time he had been in her r

    Two Months LaterThe Gerano mansion was buzzing with energy as the family and other well-wishers gathered to celebrate Jayden's birthday. The air was filled with laughter, music, and the clinking of glasses as the sun began to set. Jayden stood near the center of the room, talking to friends when he caught sight of Lucas approaching him.“Excuse me,” he said to the men he was talking to and he walked towards Lucas.“Enjoying the party?” Jayden asked with a smirk.Lucas shot him a look, which showed that he had been forced to be there probably by his wife and daughter. “I still don't like you. Don’t push it,” he warned.Jayden pouted as he pretended to be sad. “Don’t say that father-in-law,” he said and he had to stifle his laughter at the horrified expression Lucas always gave whenever he called him that. After he was discharged from the hospital, he and Lucas sat down to have a chat about Zendaya and his relationship.Lucas' words were simple, “Hurt her and you die.”He wondered w

    Jayden's losing consciousness lingered in Zendaya's mind as Lucas led her out of the dark, suffocating room. Her heart pounded as she hoped Jayden was okay. “Get an ambulance here immediately!” Justin barked at an officer as they exited the building.Zendaya stumbled slightly, her legs weak from exhaustion and fear. Lucas caught her, steadying her with a reassuring hand on her shoulder.“You’re safe now,” Lucas said gently.“But Jayden…” Zendaya whispered, her eyes never leaving Justin’s retreating figure as he carried Jayden toward an ambulance that had just arrived.“He’ll be fine,” Lucas assured her. “You need to rest as well.”Paramedics rushed to Justin, quickly taking Jayden onto a stretcher.Blood seeped through his bandages, and Zendaya’s stomach churned at the sight. She tried to follow, but Lucas held her back.“You need to get checked too,” Lucas insisted, gesturing to another paramedic who was approaching her.“No,” Zendaya protested, shaking her head. “I need to go wit

    The deafening sound of the gunshot echoed through the room, and Zendaya braced herself for the end. But to her surprise, she felt no pain. Slowly, she opened her eyes, her heart pounding in her chest.Anil stood frozen, his eyes wide with shock. And her mouth fell open when she saw that he had been shot in the shoulder. Regardless, he proceeded to shoot her once again and another shoot to his legs brought him down on his knees."Step away from her!" a familiar voice roared with anger as he stepped into the room.It was Jayden. He looked disheveled, and her heart bled when she saw his physical condition. “Jayden?” Zendaya called her voice a mix of relief and disbelief.Anil snarled, raising his gun to fire, but Jayden didn’t hesitate. Another shot rang out, and this time, it was to his palm.Anil groaned in the weapon slipping from his grasp and Jayden kicked it away as he then pounced on Anil.“Jayden, he'll die,” Zendaya stated when Anil had turned into a bleeding mess.Her words

    Zendaya’s head throbbed as she slowly opened her eyes. She saw she was in a dark room and a frown appeared on her face. Her body ached as she tried to move, only to find herself bound to a chair. Her wrists were tied tightly behind her back, the coarse rope digging into her skin as she moved. Panic immediately set in as she struggled, her breaths quick and shallow.The faint creak of a door opening sent chills down her spine as she turned in the direction of where the sound had come from. “Who’s there?” she demanded, her voice hoarse. “What do you want?”The figure didn’t respond immediately, stepping closer until the overhead light flickered on. The sudden brightness made her wince, but when her eyes adjusted, her blood ran cold as she saw who was in front of her.“Anil?” she whispered in disbelief.He stood before her, a cruel smile on his face that sent shivers down her spine. He looked different his usually composed demeanor replaced with something sinister and there was a

    The fluorescent lights of the hospital hallway greeter Jasmine and Justin rushed toward the ER, their steps hurried and frantic. The receptionist’s voice on the phone had been calm but grave when she’d informed them of Jayden’s accident. Jasmine’s heart hadn’t stopped pounding since as her mind conjured every worst-case scenario about Jayden and how he was doing. Justin walked beside her, his face pale and tight with worry.“What do they mean someone hit him and then disappeared?” Jasmine muttered, her voice trembling. “Who does that? Who leaves someone on the road like that?”Justin placed a hand on her back, and he rubbed it gently. Though his expression was grim. “We’ll find out. Let’s focus on Jayden first.”The moment they reached the nurse’s station, a staff member gestured them toward a private room. “He’s stable,” the nurse reassured them quickly, seeing the panic etched on their faces, and it made them calm down a bit. “The doctors did a thorough examination, and his in

    Jayden drove aimlessly through the city, the steady hum of the car engine doing little to drown out the storm raging in his mind. As he remembered his father’s revelation, he felt suffocated. His hands clenched the steering wheel with such intensity that his knuckles turned white, and the faint creak of the leather beneath his grip was the only sound competing with his labored breathing.Jasmine isn’t my mother.The thought repeated itself over and over, echoing in his mind. He couldn’t believe it. She was the woman who had raised him, loved him, been there for him through every high and low. She wasn’t his real mother.Every memory of her felt tainted now, overshadowed by the truth. The fact that they had hid it from him for all of his life and probably wouldn’t have told him had the article not come out was a slap to his face.The betrayal hit him in waves, each one stronger than the last. Why hadn’t they told him? Why had they waited until the news forced their hand? He thoug

    Jayden drove home in a haze, his hands gripping the steering wheel, and he imagined his being someone's neck. He subconsciously tightened his grip on the steering wheel until his knuckles turned white. The article, the headline that Jasmine wasn’t his real mother, echoed in his mind. His mind struggled to make sense of it, but something deep inside him was beginning to put two and two together, and something began to shift. ‘You’re being unreasonable,’ he muttered to him as he shut those thoughts out of his head. The drive home felt longer than it should have been, and when he finally arrived at the mansion, the weight of it all pressed heavily on his chest. As he entered the house, a strange sense of heaviness hit him. It was more than just the eerie quiet that settled over everything; there was something palpable in the air. “Your parents are in their room, sir.” The helper who opened the door informed him. Jayden nodded, his heart pounding harder as he made his way up

    Zendaya stirred awake, the first rays of sunlight peeking through the curtains. The room was warm, and the faint smell of Jayden lingered in the air, a mix of his cologne and something undeniably him. Opening her eyes, she blinked a few times before turning her head to see Jayden sleeping beside her, his face relaxed and peaceful.Her lips curled into a soft smile as she took in the sight of him. He was lying on his stomach, the sheets were around his waist, leaving his broad back and a glimpse of his toned arms on display to her.His dark hair was messy, sticking up in different directions from her fingers running through it last night.Last night. Her cheeks warmed at the memory.Last night, he’d truly proven he was a beast, just as he’d promised. The passion, the fire, the way he’d driven her to the edge over and over, it left her breathless just thinking about it and the heat rushed to her legs even though he was sore. A smile appeared on her face as she brushed her fingers o

    The room was dimly lit, the only source of illumination being the faint glow from a laptop screen on a cluttered desk. .Papers and files were scattered, some bearing Jayden’s name in bold letters. The two men stood on opposite sides of the room, their faces partially hidden.The taller man paced, his hands shoved deep into his pockets as his mind raced. He finally stopped, turning to face his boss, who was seated behind the desk.“We’ve got something big,” the taller man said, his voice laced with excitement and malice. “Something that’ll change everything, boss.”The boss didn’t respond immediately. He leaned back in his chair, his sharp eyes narrowing as he studied the man before him. “What is it?” he asked, his tone calm but deadly.The taller man hesitated for a moment before stepping forward and placing a file on the desk. “It’s about Jayden,” he said, tapping the file with a finger. “Something that has been hidden.”The boss arched a brow, his interest piqued. He opened the
