When Jayden got into his mansion, he found his father seated patiently in his living room sipping his expensive alcohol. “What brings you to my mansion?” He asked.

“The pictures of you and Zendaya, which have been trending since this morning,” Justin responded to his son.

The boy had just come back, and he was already getting into a scandal with none other than Zendaya Valencia, the woman whom Jayden hated more than anything in the world.

“You know how the media is, ignore it,” Jayden brushed off, but the look on his father’s face told him he wasn’t having any of it.

“I sent you away for two years because of the same woman. One would have taught you learnt your lesson,” Justin hissed in annoyance.

There was nothing he and his wife hadn’t done to get rid of the enmity between his son and Zendaya, but nothing seemed to work.

The last straw was what happened the last time, and he finally decided to send his son to one of their companies overseas to handle it.

He had done so with the

    When Zendaya opened the door, she found her helper standing in front of her. “Ma’am, Miss Tatiana is here to see you,” her helper informed her, and a frown appeared on Zendaya’s face. “You can go, tell her I'll be down in a minute,” she instructed the helper, who bowed and left.Zendaya turned to the closet where her gun was kept, and she wondered if it would be a good idea to shoot Tatiana for what she had done to her.No, killing her was giving her an easy punishment, and she wasn't going to do that. By the time she was done with both her and Matthew, they would be begging for death.With that thought in mind, she took a deep breath and headed downstairs. If Tatiana was there, it was either because Matthew hadn't told her she knew he was cheating or the fact that he did, but he was banking on the fact that she didn't know it was Tatiana he had been cheating on her with.Either way, it was a stupid decision to come to her, and she wanted to hear what the backstabber would say to h

    “What do you mean, I have to attend a party tonight?” Jayden asked in annoyance. He had gone through his schedule when he resumed back at the company, and it didn't involve him attending a party, especially one that was two hours away.He hated them as due to the family he belonged to, people would always try to talk to him and gain his favour, that was another thing he hated, socializing.It was why he had only one person he could consider his friend, and that was Arthur, his cousin. The only reason why that was even so, was because they had grown up together. “Your father called and asked me to add it to your schedule, and he said something along the lines of ‘After all, you're in charge now,’ sir,” his secretary told him and he waved, dismissing his employee.Without wasting time, he proceeded to call Justin in annoyance. “I'm not attending a party you were supposed to attend,” he immediately told his father.“Too bad you don't have a choice after all, you said you were in charge

    Flashes of what had happened between them the previous night rang in her head and her cheeks turned red in embarrassment.“Are you sure this is my seat, there's no mistake?” She asked, and the waiter shook his head while pointing to her name, which was on the table.“Thank you,” she said and the waiter left. Having no other choice, she took her seat and smiled at the rest of the people who were on the table. Not wanting to talk to Jayden, she pretended he wasn't there.“Are you really ignoring me?” He leaned in and asked. Her entire body became hot and all he had done was ask a question. What was wrong with her, and why was she reading this way?“Why are you at this party, I thought you hated parties,” she hissed as finally turned to acknowledge his presence.Why was he looking more handsome than this morning? She couldn't help but ask herself.‘I’m here because you're here,’ Jayden almost said, but he didn't.“I'm representing my dad,” he replied instead. “The same can be said about

    Jayden chuckled as he looked at Zendaya. “You know, I might just change my mind and let you fall into the fountain,” he pointed out, and he saw her glare at him.Did she really think she would escape him by coming here? He had come to the party only because of her, which meant that wherever she was, he would be there.“Jayden,” Zendaya called in a warning tone, and her soul left her body when he let go of her. “Ahh!” She yelled, but in the next instant she found herself clutching into his shoulders. The asshole had caught her waist and pulled her back up in the nick of time. Her heart pounded in her chest, and it took a few seconds for her to regain her composure.When she did, she saw Jayden smiling at her, and she became red with anger. “Let go of me!” She hissed. The moment he did, she was going to beat his ass up. First he followed her there, then he scared her not once but twice.“Have I told you how beautiful you look?” He asked her, and she was dumbfounded as it was out of no

    Coming back into the hall was a big mistake, Zendaya thought to herself as the moment she stepped in, the host took her around, introducing her to some huge people in the entertainment industry. These were people her father could get her into a meeting with, but not wanting to be disrespectful, she allowed the host to cart her away. It was what led to her current situation, as the moment she had concluded her talks with those notable people, she was bombarded by the people she was currently with. It was obvious they were just looking for answers from her so they could gossip about it and thankfully, Jayden had arrived As much as he was an asshole to her, he was more than capable of handling the people who had surrounded her as he had an infamous reputation of being cruel just like the rest of the men from his family.“We were just offering our condolences,” the woman who had asked the questions smiled nervously.“It's a birthday party and a fundraiser, why don't you all go over th

    “Do you need to go to the doctor?” He asked Zendaya, who was looking distantly at him. “No, I just need a moment to catch my breath,” she told Jayden as she subconsciously held his hand and squeezed it. Moments like this were when she wished to commit murder, as it was her father's ex-fiance that had been responsible for what happened to her. From time to time, she would experience weakness, as it was an after-effect of the condition. It was nothing too serious compared to when she had been younger and had the condition in full effect, but she still hated it. Taking in a deep breath, she did as the doctor had asked whenever such happened, and gradually she found herself coming back to normal. As soon as she was back, she realized that he had been holding Jayden's hand, and she proceeded to let go of it. However, he didn't let go of her. “Get up, we're leaving!” He deadpanned in a final tone, and Zendaya stood up. She followed silently and they headed outside. “I have my own ca

    Zendaya's eyes slowly fluttered open, and she found herself staring at an unfamiliar ceiling which looked strangely familiar. ‘What?!’ She mumbled in confusion as she sat up. When she looked around, she realized that the room looked like the one in Jayden’s mansion. As soon as that thought came to her head, she realized that she didn't remember getting home after falling asleep. Looking down, she saw that she was still in the same dress from the party.“Jayden!” She yelled in anger as she got out of the bed and stepped out of the room.When she was out, she was met by a helper who was cleaning a vase. “Where's Jayden?” She inquired. “In his room, ma’am” the helper answered and Zendaya immediately headed there. How dare he bring her back to his mansion, especially after what had happened last time. Upon getting there, she didn't bother knocking and she barged in. “Jayden, you…” she paused as she was met with a half-naked Jayden who had just stepped out of the shower.“Put some clot

    Either Matthew was dumb, or he was desperate to tell her such a thing. Shaking her head, she clutched her stomach when it growled angrily, and she was reminded of the fact that she had not eaten anything since last night.Eating outside was something she never did as she had fears of being poisoned as it had happened before. Without wasting time, she headed out of her room and headed downstairs so she could eat something.At least, if he was going to trap her there, the least she could do was eat. “Good morning, ma’am, should I serve the food,” a helper stepped forward and Zendaya shook her head.“Don’t worry, I’ll do it myself, you can go,” she dismissed and as soon as she was alone, her eyes widened in shock when she saw that all of her favourite dishes. Was Jayden behind this, or was it a coincidence. No, it couldn’t be the former, as Jayden didn't know her favourite foods. “Hmm,” she shrugged casually. Either way, she was going to eat, and that was what she proceeded to do.“Isn’

    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.
