JENNA

Maybe I was angry when I shoved the door open and stepped in, but not anymore. Now I am simply amused. Both blonde women are staying at me with shocked expressions and their mouths shaped similar to that of a goldfish.

I flash them a cheery smile. "Oh, don't stop on my account. I'm just here to grab a bottle of water, nothing more."

The taller blonde, in a green blouse and black pants, tips her chin in a posture that should be defiant but really is just an attempt to save herself the embarrassment of being caught in the middle of a gossip.

"Then grab the water and leave. Or what? Do you have bigger plans? Like getting us fired for example?"

"How would I possibly be able to get you fired? Do tell. Last I checked, I am a mere intern. Or did I get promoted withiut my knowledge?" I ask with the most serious expression I can muster.

The same blonde gives me a smile that is anything but friendly. "You know exactly it is that you've you've able to manage our forced retirement. Don

    JENNA My mind almost shuts down as the implication of his words take root in my mind. I do the one thing that I can think of in this moment. I bite down on his palm that's covering my mouth, then stomps down on his foot with my heeled one. He groans in pain and immediately let's go of me. I take the opportunity to get the hell away from him. My feet are covering up space as quickly as my heels would allow and I focus simply on two things; breathing and getting the hell out of here. "Where the hell do you think you're going?" An angry Mr. Evans clamps down on my hair in fury and tosses me to the floor. A loud yell erupts from my throat as I cry for help, and then I aim for his balls and kick him as hard as I can between his parted thighs as he stares down at me. He doubles over from the pain and I drag myself to my feet again, racing away from him. The elevator is on the opposite side of where I am right now, and getting around him to it is the only option I have to get out o

    JENNA By the time the police get to the scene, my nerves are somewhat calmer, I have a cup of tea in hand and am doing any and everything possible to be on the other side of Mr. Evans at all times. "Can we take your statement now, ma'am?" One of the police officers who looks to be in his fifties approaches me with a kind smile. His name tag reads Benson. His colleague, who looks relatively younger, has taken Mr. Evans out of the room and down to the police car with Dylan in tow. I nod my head slowly. "Yeah, of course." My lungs expand as I inhale a large breath to calm myself before I start reiterating the play out of events to the kind looking man in front of me. "You say all of your co-workers had left for the night?" He asks after I finish explaining my near assault to him. My head bobs up and down in a confirming nod. "Yes. I was the only one in the office at the time. Or at least I thought that I was, until Mr. Carlson showed up." "Do you want to tell me what it was that y

    DYLAN After I hit her with the confession that I am the owner of the company where she works, she stays completely quiet. She doesn't utter a single word even when I help her gather her things, usher her out of the building and into my car, or when I put it in drive and start rolling down the street. I flick a glance in her direction, and she is simply staring out the window, with her head leaning against it. "You know you have to tell me where to take you eventually, right? I don't think you want your parents to see you in this state." I say softly. At that, she finally turns to look at me, her expression heavily dazed. "Can we just drive around for a bit? I don't think I can stomach being alone right now." I nod once. "I understand." We keep going round and round without a single destination until I look at the time and see that it's at 9 pm. "Jenna. We've been driving around for a while. It's time for us to go home and get some rest. You still have work tomorrow." She glares

    JENNA "What is wrong with you? Why are you sounding that way? All we had was a single night, Dylan; and it was supposed to end there. Don't make this into something that it isn't, and shouldn't even be." Even as I say the words I can feel my heart race at the way his arms are folded over his chest in a daunting pose, his eyes never leaving mine. "Are you done?" His voice is cold when he asks. "Don't you dare do that! I make a good point and you know it." I mimic his pose. "Or what? Why didn't you come clean to my father when you saw me if you knew you wanted to stake a claim on me?" I challenge. A single brow inches high on his forehead. "I don't think you would have reacted well to that, so I thought to save you the embarrassment." He points at me with an upturned palm. "I mean, look at how flustered you get now that I mention it. And we're alone." My cheeks heat up at his assessment and I close my eyes, rubbing my fingers against my forehead to ease the headache that's starting

    JENNA"She has to be a jinx or something. I mean I know that they weren't necessarily the best of people, but isn't it totally weird how they both lost their jobs mere weeks after she showed up?" A female voice carries from inside the machine room.I stop in my tracks, no longer sure whether or not I should go in.Really?! I groan inwardly. What kinds of people are these? Why am I the one who's constantly taking the heat when I'm the one who's constantly being wronged?"That might not be how it is. Maybe she just has a serious case of bad luck? It seems to be following her around." Another voice carries over through the door. "You make a good point. I could have sworn that she was sleeping with Mr. Evans. Who would have thought that he would get fired and arrested for almost raping her in the office?" Another female speaks up, this one different from the first two."Poor girl. I wonder how she must have felt after something like that happened." The first voice speaks again.She reall

    JENNAA WEEK LATER"Hey honey. How have you been?" Mom's excited voice carries over through the phone.I nearly break down in tears at the sound of her peaceful voice. She sounds so happy, like she doesn't have a single bother in the world. I can't deny that I miss having so little problems in my life."Jenna?" She prompts, and it's only then that I realize she has been waiting on an answer, and I haven't given her any.I clear my throat. "Sorry, I've just been really busy lately and...""Are you okay, sweetie? You don't usually sound this frazzled."My eyes squeeze shut and I struggle to hold back the groan that's threatening to spill from my mouth. "I'm fine, Mom. Just that you were right and this working thing can be really exhausting."She doesn't buy it, and her sigh rings with enough disbelief. "I'm your mother, Jenna. You should know better than to lie to me. What really is wrong? I can tell that something is, and it's not work."The tears I've been struggling to hold back come

My eyes fall back to the open computer in front of me, but even though I'm not looking in her direction, I know that she's still standing in the same spot."You have two simple options, Jenna..."She cuts me off in a hard tone. "I won't let you speak to me like that, Dylan. You have to decide whether or not you want me as an employee or as a lover."My eyes trail up to meet hers, and I continue speaking like I didn't hear her. "You either sit down like I've asked you to, or I'd fuck that attitude right out of you and put your naked butt in that chair myself."Her eyes bulge at the seriousness and vulgarity of my tone and words. "You can't say things like that."I raise a single brow. "I can, and I just did. I also mean every single one of those words."She stares at me with anger burning in her gaze, and folds her arms ov

You look lovely," I compliment her with a smile.She does look lovely in her short green dress that hugs her busts and then flares out softly at the waist. The gorgeous piece stops mid-thigh, showing off the delicate creaminess of her shapely legs.She beams up at me. "Thank you. I was supposed to be on a date, but the jerk stood me up."I cringe. "Oh? His loss. You look absolutely ravishing."Her face pulls into a very big smile, stretching her cheeks from side to side. I feel my heart swell with a certain level of pride for putting that smile there. Kimberly, although she has a sweet soul, smiles the least amongst everyone else in the office. "Thank you. I sometimes think a little bit differently about myself because these men have been rather flaky with me."My forehead squeezes into a frown. "What do you mean?""I have a six years old son, and my dates usually go great

I grumble out loud, my voice sounding tired and angry all at once."You love him, that doesn't make you a masochist."

    DYLAN "How did it go with Mr. Drako?" Dominika asks over the phone. She has been calling me non-stop for the last 3 days, and I would be a liar if I said it didn't bother me to no end that she was constantly on my case. "I don't see how that's any of your business." My tone is curt and filled with disinterest. "But more importantly, how did you know I had a run- in with Drako?" She laughs softly. "Oh for the love of God, Dylan. I know about everything that's going on there in New York. Don't insult me." "You can only have information like that if you've been conversing with Donald. And for his sake, I hope he has not been feeding you sensitive information like that." "You offend me, Dylan. Why do you choose to treat me like a common stranger after everything we've been through?" Her tone is infused with hurt. "Whatever we shared is over now, Dominika." "You never believed I had nothing to do with your family's disappearance, did you?" She sighs into the phone. "I swear

    RYEI smiled as the first rays of sunlight kissed my eyes this morning, stretching, with them still shut, against my pillow.It's been years since I've had such decent sleep. And I have the fiery silver head that spent the night curled up against me like a koala to thank for getting it last night. Sure, she had snuck out this morning - if you can even call it that - at the first crack of dawn; smelling a lot like fear and regret.There is something ridiculously special about that girl, and I have every intention if finding it out. I definitely do feel a tinge of regret for taking her virginity in that way, but it couldn't be helped. I didn't want her tied to me in ways that would restrict her freedom.My lounging is interrupted by the shrill ringing of my phone, and I groan. Who could it be this early in the morning?I roll over to grab the phone from the nightstand. "Father?""Lyrik. What the hell are you doing?" He thinders from the other end of the line."What do you think? I was

I complain into my phone, drowning Kim in my sorrows.I would totally call Jenny right now, but I don't think I can just call on her with all of my baggage after months of barely there contact.Her laughter travels into my ears, pissing me off with its sweetness. "What's so wrong with the weekend? I thought we all wanted to have the time to chill out after a stressful week?"A groan slips past my throat. "You know what I'm talking about, Kim.""What the fuck is so wrong with having some time to chill? You need the rest more than anyone else.""But...""But what?" She counters then heaves a huge sigh, probably exhausted with my whining already. "Look, Jenna, you need to get your shit together. Why haven't you told him about it yet?""Eva showed up.""I'm sorry, what?!" She yells into the receiver. "You know what? Hold on, this is not a phone conversation."With that the call cuts off. F

    DYLAN"Fuck." Jenna's soft mutter carries a lot of emotion, enough that I don't have to wonder if something is wrong. It most definitely is.I turn around to face the woman standing behind me. It was her voice and interruption that caused Jenna to freeze anyway."Can I help you?" I ask the definitely unfamiliar face.She looks down at me, dragging her attention away from Jenna, who looks positively unimpressed. "I'm sorry to barge in on you this way, Sir. But..." she pauses, her eyes wide and her mouth the shape of an o. "You are Dylan Carlson, the owner of Carlson's Inc. and our boss.""I don't see how you can call him your boss when you no longer work for the company." Jenna speaks up at the same time that I go..."In what department do you work?"She completely ignores Jenna and her question, choosing instead to bask me in all of her very unwanted attention. "I used to work for the marketing department, but I was unjustly laid off a few weeks ago, and I wondered why." Her gaze dar

I don't know the first thing about being a mother and I am fucking pregnant.""Yeah, you are. I don't see what the issue is." She looks at me like I've gone insane and it just makes my blood boil.I throw my hands up in exasperation. "I am pregnant, Kim." My voice wobbles a bit.She rolls her eyes. "So you've said the last I don't know... million times? I don't see what's so wrong with being pregnant." Her hand moves over her body in a dramatic way. "I am a single mother, remember? Not the end of the world.""You know who the father of this baby is.""Dylan Carlson. Your boss and ex-lover.

    Yesterday wasn't so bad. I mean it could have been so much worse, I can still remember the amount of embarrassment I was flooded with when Cat decided to rip my clothes to shreds, but then Rye had swooped in and saved the day; and that kiss at my dorm door? Boy! That kiss was heaven."What are you blushing about?" Diana comments from beside me, causing me to jolt back into the here and now.I smiled sheepishly at her. "Nothing. I was just lost in thought.""You never did tell me why it was that you left school before closing hours." She eyed me closely.My butt squirmed on the stool I was perched on as we had breakfast before heading for school. I think about all the different things I've had to live through this week, and it's only Thursday. "I ran into some trouble after P.E and I had to come back home." I lied through my teeth.Diana's face pulls into a grimace and she smiles at me. "Yikes. Only you would have such badluck to have your period immediately after your one night of fu

"I don't know what it is that is wrong with you, but it gives you no right to talk to me this way.""You ignored my texts."
