“On my way,” Ranya replied, walking out of his apartment.“Everyone is waiting, Ranya,” Damian said before ending the call.It was Wednesday night, the night his father had organized a final dinner for his send-off. It was the last day in Texas before moving fully to the White House in Washington. Damian had just called to remind him of the dinner party.The press had been publishing nothing but stories about his engagement. Sometimes he had to battle his way into his office through numerous paparazzi, trying to avoid any questions.As he closed his apartment door, a tiny piece of paper slipped to the ground.He furrowed his brow as he picked it up. Ranya might be the richest bachelor in Texas, but he led a very simple life. The only people with access to his room after Vivian left were Madam Danielle and two other domestic staff he hired to keep the apartment clean.He owned a large estate where he would need to hire many people to keep the house in order, but he loved his privacy, e

“I’m glad we get to travel like this again,” Emily said, walking with Calista to the terminal. She was wearing a slinky white dress and sunglasses.Calista smiled, pushing her little box of clothes. This time, she decided not to spend Anthony’s money since she had no intention of going out with him.Calista wore a sophisticated, flowy maxi dress, gracefully navigating the airport line as they stood in the not-so-long line for their papers to be verified.“Why did you choose to travel by plane when you could use the private jet?” Calista asked as she stood beside Emily in line.“Because I can’t now,” Emily replied. “It’s under maintenance, and we really can’t afford one at the moment. The company is going through a lot of crises as we speak.”“Really?” Calista asked, shocked. “I’m so sorry, dear. I had no idea.”“It’s fine. No one knows except you and my grandfather,” she replied, taking a step closer to the attendant. Calista followed suit, dragging her luggage with her.“You did not

“The aircraft is available, sir,” Greg announced the moment Ranya stepped out of his office into the reception area. Valerie followed closely, holding a work tablet.For a moment, Valerie stared at Mr. Windsor, shocked. Were they going somewhere far enough to warrant using his private jet? How come she wasn’t informed?“I don’t need it, Greg. Get the car ready,” Ranya replied.“But sir...” Greg tried to say, surprised that Ranya intended to go to Washington without the private jet.“Is the car ready?” he asked, interrupting Greg.“It is always available, sir,” Greg responded, and Ranya nodded, signifying that he could leave.Valerie finally found the time to talk to her boss. “Sir, where are we heading?”“Washington,” Ranya said, turning to her and smiling.“What for, sir?” Valerie asked, baffled.“What do you mean, Valerie?” he asked, furrowing his brow. “My wedding is happening in Washington.”“Okay, sir,” she replied, unable to understand her boss any longer. Ever since the lady re
Fading Embers: The Search For Lost Love Conflicted Hearts
Calista’s mouth fell open at the words she heard. Her heart stopped, and she felt a rush of conflicting emotions—shock, disbelief, and a pang of guilt. She stared at him, wide-eyed. “How can you say that?” she whispered, her voice trembling. “You’re getting married to my best friend!”“I know it sounds impossible, but it’s the truth,” he said, pushing his hands closer to her. “I can’t explain it all right now, but I need you to believe me.”“Believe you?” she questioned, still finding it hard to grasp the words he was saying. “Believe you, Ranya?” She shook her head, disbelief overtaking her as she watched him mumble. “Ranya, this isn’t fair. To me, to Signoral, to anyone. You can’t just drop this on me and expect me to—”“I had to tell you,” he interrupted gently. “I couldn’t keep lying to myself. I love you, and I want to be with you.”“Shut up!” she roared, glaring at him. If he thinks he can buy his way into her heart with his words, then he better take a full course on being a jo
Fading Embers: The Search For Lost Love The Rose Garden
“What do you mean by that?” Signoral asked as everyone turned to stare at Ranya.He shrugged, not wanting to cause further speculation that might implicate Calista. “Why share a room when there’s enough space to go around?” he asked, disliking the idea of Calista being in the same room with Anthony.Calista remained silent, unhappy with the arrangement of having to share a bed with Anthony.“Well...” Signoral started as they walked alongside Damian, Ranya, Anthony, and Valerie into the elevator.“The residence only has 16 rooms,” one of the workers said, walking alongside them and pressing the button. “It won’t be enough, considering the number of people attending.”“We can lodge at a hotel. Damian, Anthony, and I will,” Ranya suggested again, causing Signoral to frown slightly.“If that’s what you want, sir, we can actually place the men in separate rooms,” the worker repeated. She seemed too finely dressed to be a domestic worker, hinting at a different role.“Perfect,” Damian said
Fading Embers: The Search For Lost Love Stolen Moments
Her body surged with adrenaline as his lips met hers, leaving Calista stunned and motionless, her eyes wide with shock.He isn’t kissing her now, is he?She felt a rush of sweetness as he kissed her, a sensation she had never experienced with him before. Her legs trembled at the unexpected gesture.Ranya’s lips on hers felt like a shockwave. Calista’s mind went blank for a moment, her heart pounding wildly in her chest. As much as she wanted to resist, there was something magnetic about the way he held her—the heat of his body pressing against hers. But the reality of the situation crashed over her like an icy wave. She pushed against his chest, breaking the kiss, her breath coming in ragged gasps.“Stop!” she exclaimed, her voice trembling with anger and confusion. She stumbled back a few steps, her fingers brushing against her lips where his kiss still lingered. “What do you think you’re doing?”Ranya took a step towards her, his eyes softening with a mixture of victory and determin
Fading Embers: The Search For Lost Love Confrontations and Confessions
“Ranya,” Damian called, walking briskly towards him. Ranya wore a displeased expression, glaring angrily at Damian for his untimely interruption.If he had known it was Damian, he wouldn’t have stopped, and now he had lost Calista. As much as he wanted to stop chasing after her, he couldn’t seem to breathe when she wasn’t near him.“Goodness, Ranya, you walk so fast I can hardly keep up with you.”“And what in the world is your problem?” Ranya asked, gritting his teeth as he marched angrily towards Damian.“My God, chill, man,” Damian said, raising his hands in defense while stepping backward, trying to escape Ranya’s hateful glare. “You’ve been acting so impulsively lately; I just had to call you to order.”Ranya stopped abruptly, raising an eyebrow at Damian’s comment. If chasing the woman he wanted so badly was impulsive, then he wouldn’t mind doing it over and over.“Whatever I do, Damian, is none of your business!”“Do you want to cause a rift between two friends?” Damian asked c

“The Oval Office is located on the outskirts of the building. It faces the Rose Garden, one of the most peaceful and beautiful gardens in the White House.”The tour guide’s voice seemed to fade with each passing minute as Signoral struggled to concentrate.Ranya was no longer with them, nor was Damian. Signoral’s phone beeped, indicating a message. She clicked on it.Penelope had sent her a file about the car she intended to gift Mr. Lewiston for his election success.Signoral stepped away from the group to a quieter area and placed a call. Penelope picked up on the first ring.“When will it be in Washington?” Signoral asked as soon as Penelope answered. “The ceremony is in two days, and I need him to have it that night. Everyone must know I’m not with Ranya for the money.”“Tomorrow, ma’am,” Penelope replied. “It will be on the move as soon as you sign the documents.”“Okay,” Signoral replied, walking further away. “Is there something else you wanted to say?” She knew Penelope wouldn
