Monday came by sooner than expected but also somehow longer than I would have wanted. The last thing I wanted was to be back in my office with Charles at my door every hour and annoying, stuck up, rich clients every other minute.

Thankfully my next client didn’t stay long. She didn’t have any serious issues; she just had a contract she wanted me to look over for any loopholes she might have missed and give her pointers for anything she could add to grant her better benefits in their deal.

As soon as she left, just before the door to my office closed finally, it was pushed open and Charles walked in. I forced down my groan of frustration and instead plastered on my most professional smile.

“Is it okay if I sit?” he asked

“Actually, I’m expecting another client right about now.”

“Don’t worry,” he brushed me off and sat down. So much for asking me first, “I won’t be here very long.”

I took a deep breath and counted to five, “What can I help you with?”

“Yesterday was kind of awkward,” he

    Talking to clients is hard enough but talking to clients when you’re turned on, sexually frustrated and have nothing on so you can feel the wetness between your thighs is even worse.Every single thing Winston said seemed to frustrate me more than usual and it was a conscious effort to not drag him by the collar, throw him out of my office and slam the door in his face. I unknowingly found myself counting down the hours until he would get out.The moment our meeting was done, I didn’t even wait for him to do his usual snobbish goodbyes; I just slammed the door and lay my head against it in frustration.Unfortunately, Winston wasn’t my last client for the day and I had to deal with that three more times before I was able to call it a day and hightail it out of there. On my way to the parking lot, I was ambushed by Charles. This time it took all the self control left in me for me to not scream.“Can I help you Charles?” I asked as I piled my things into the passenger side of my car.“I

    I was trapped in a blissful cocoon of sleep when I felt a hand softy brush my curls behind my ears. Normally, I would snap awake if I’m touched from sleep but the touch was so warm and comforting that all I wanted to do was burrow myself further into it and never get up.I heard a rough chuckle and a voice, “Nice try baby girl but you need to get up.”Awareness dawned on me when I heard Jake’s voice but I decided to pretend to be asleep for a little while longer. The last thing I wanted to do was get out of bed when I was more comfortable than I have been in a long time.“Why?” I called on the remnants of sleep in me to sound as tired as possible. “Please let me sleep.” “You have to eat dinner; I can’t have you not feeding well on my watch.”“You do feed me well,” I teased, “More than I need if I’m being honest.” “Nice try, but I meant actual food Hayley.”I smiled to myself as hands lifted me from under my pits and without opening my eyes, I latched onto Jake like a ko

    By the time I woke up the next morning, Jake was already up. His side of the bed was still warm so I knew that he hadn’t been up for a while. As I pulled myself into a sitting position, I saw him step out of my bathroom with a towel tied around his waist.“Well this is a sight,” I teased, “It almost makes me want to stay in bed all day.”“Nice try baby girl but we have work; I already drew a bath for you.”I was surprised by his last sentence. I didn’t know how to respond to him so I just smiled at him and pulled myself out of bed.By the time I got out of the bathroom, Jake was already dressed in his suit from yesterday. It smelled like my clothes softener so I’m assuming he put it in the washing machine while I was asleep.He stared at me in my towel and muttered a few choice words under his breath, “I’ll make us breakfast because if I stay here, neither of us is going to work.”He didn’t wait for me to respond before he walked out of the room. I couldn’t help but chuckle to myself

    I didn’t check my phone to see if Jake had responded because I was way too anxious. Time seemed to fly and by the end of the day, I couldn’t even escape to say that I wanted to go somewhere first; dad dragged me home so I could change for the dinner.I texted Jake again hoping he would respond but my message delivered and I didn’t get any response. I figured he was busy and decided to focus on the task in front of me which was dinner with my father.I didn’t want to do too much so I just settled for a simple black sleeveless body con dress. It was floor length with a slit that runs up my thigh (I’m not sure if I own any dress that doesn’t have a slit) and the back was bare with some criss cross patterns.When I was done with my makeup and hair, I went down the stairs to where father was standing in his own suit and tie. He held out his hand to me like a true gentleman and helped me down the last flight of stairs.“You look beautiful Hayley,” he said and I couldn’t help my smile, “I ca

    It took exactly twenty two minutes for Jake to walk into my room. I had ditched the cover up and was lounging on the bed in the lingerie when he made his way into the room. His eyes ran over my figure and I could see the vein in his head pulsing. I heard the door click shut and I knew that I was in for a treat.He crossed the length of the room until he was standing directly at the foot of the bed. I watched as he slowly stripped off his tie and his shirt. He undid his belt buckle but left his pants on. I made to sit up but he held out a hand to stop me.“How was the drink with my father?” I teased and he growled. “I take it that it didn’t go so well.”“You are such a naughty little girl aren’t you?” he asked and just like that, my thighs were slick. “I bet you wouldn’t have cared if I had slipped my hand up your legs while daddy dearest was in the room.”I didn’t respond but we both knew the answer- I wouldn’t. He leaned over and I expected him to kiss me but he grabbed my arm and lo

    When I woke up the next morning, Jake was gone and there was a dull ache in my chest. The bed was cold so I knew he barely slept in it. I hated the fact that we had to hide and sneak around but I knew the news would not go down well with my father.I pulled myself out of bed and went on with my day as usual hoping to see him downstairs. By the time I got down the stairs, he was seated next to my father and they were laughing about something. Both men were dressed in suits and ready for work and they were drinking coffee.Jake saw me first. He ran his eyes down my outfit and I could just tell the kind of thoughts going on in his mind as he watched me over the rim of his mug. I mentally patted myself on the back for choosing the pantsuit and when I walked past him, I knew his hands itched to grab a fistful of my ass.I kissed the top of my father’s head and went into the kitchen where Alana was busy buttering a toast for me. I thanked her as she handed me the complete breakfast tray but

    The first Friday rolled around and to say I was annoyed would be an understatement. I tried to plead with my dad to get me out of it but this was the one time that my last name could not get me out of a situation. Jake tried to assure me that it was fine and I just needed to get through the early hours of the night.Greg had organized a dinner at a restaurant. It was lazy if you asked me and it was obvious that there was no thought behind it. I didn’t mind because I knew dinner was something I could easily bail from if need be. It was nothing fancy so I went for a simple black dress and heels. Dad wished me luck to which I flipped him off.Dinner was set by 7 and I got there by a few minutes after. A handful of people were already there including Greg and Charles. Greg was the first to sight me and he gave a dismissive smile. “I’m glad you took time out of your busy schedule to attend Hayley. I was beginning to doubt whether you were going to.”I ignored his obvious taunt and took the

    I could barely focus as I drove to Jake’s house. I was the equivalent of a drunk frat boy because no matter how hard I tried, I couldn’t shake the taste of his lips on mine and it made me uneasy. I hated feeling that way. I briefly wondered if I was doing the right thing by going to Jake but I didn’t know where else to go. I knew I would have to give my father an explanation but for the time being, I didn’t want to think about it.Jake’s house was massive. It was roughly the size of my dad’s with a massive electronically operated gate, two floors and a large and open space around it. The garage itself was a completely different building and when I parked, I noticed a pool behind it. Jake was waiting for me when I walked out of the garage and from the look on his face, I could tell that he was concerned.Once I was within arm’s reach, he pulled me closer to him. “Are you alright?” I nodded. “Are you going to spend the night or do you plan on going home?”“I want to stay,” my voice was

    HAYLEY’S P.O.VGrowing up I always thought about what it would feel like to see my mother.My dad had no pictures of her, it had been a stupid fling and she never reached out to him. He could have found her if he did but he never wanted to. He told me that if I still wanted to find her when I turned eighteen then he would.I went through all the stages of grief. There was anger at the fact that she had abandoned me and never tried to come back. There was the sadness and the feeling of not being enough for my own mother. By the time I turned eighteen, I didn’t care anymore and I told my father not to bother. It had always been me and him and that was how I wanted it.Seeing the woman in front of me brought back all those feelings of anger and betrayal bubbling up to my chest“I don’t have a mother,” I said finally. “You should leave.”“Please,” she grabbed my arm. “I just want to talk. I came all the way here to find you.”“I didn’t ask you to come here,” I spat jerking my hand out of

    HAYLEY’S P.O.VI sat next to my grandmother in silence.I had her hand in mine and listened to the rhythmic beeping of the machines that were hooked up to her. The doctor said that it was only a matter of time but he had given her something to help with the pain.In the midst of all this, I couldn’t get a grip on my own emotions. There was so much swirling inside of me, too many things that I couldn’t get a grip on them. I hadn’t felt this conflicted in a very long time, probably not since I was a teenager.There was anger and pain and guilt. Guilt that we had all the money in the world and I couldn’t stop this, guilt that I was so focused on my own issues that I didn’t even see that she was dying right in front of me. She came back so we could spend time with her and I barely spent any, I spent it running around with Jake and worrying about Marie and his potential child that didn’t even end up being his.I felt stupid and incredibly foolish to say the least and I hated feeling stupid

    HAYLEY’S P.O.VMy hands were shaking but I fisted them by my side until I got home. I needed a minute to myself to catch my breath, what I was not expecting was to find my father and Jake in the living room. They were discussing something but they immediately stopped as soon as they saw me.I was glad that they were getting along again but for fucks sake, I wished they took their business to Jake’s house because I knew that between the two of them, nothing ever went unnoticed.“We had the meeting with Marie,” Jake began as soon as he saw me. “She was pissed to say the least but-”“You should be going home,” I told Jake and his brows furrowed in confusion.I knew I was being rude but right now, I didn’t have the patience to be nice. He needed to go home because I wasn’t sure if the question from the police was mere curiosity or if it was a threat but if they were going to follow the trail then chances were that they might officially ask me who I was with and that would mean implicating

    HAYLEY’S P.O.VThe sound of whispers woke me up.I tried to ignore it at first but it only got more urgent and I felt the covers shift as Jake got out of bed. With a small groan, I peeled my eyes open, the room was still dark, the only source of light was from the moon that spilled in through the drawn curtains.“Are you sure?” I heard Jake ask, the urgency in his voice taking away whatever remnants of sleep were left in me.I dragged myself up into a sitting position and my eyes found Jake. He was standing with his back to me, shirtless save for the boxer briefs he wore to bed and he was pacing. That was never a good sign because Jake never paced, at least not when everything was fine.“What’s wrong?”He turned to me, almost surprised and cursed. “Go back to bed, Hayley. Don’t worry about me.”“You’re pacing like a mad man and you look like shit,” I leaned over to turn on the bedside lamp drowning the room with a soft orange glow. “What’s wrong?”“The results are in.”If I wasn’t ale

    JAKE’S P.O.VThe bottle of whiskey almost seemed to mock me as it sat on my dining table.A few years ago, I would have drank the entire bottle until I forgot everything and taken the first plane out of the city- maybe even the country. I had a knack for running away from my problems. It was what I did when Marie left me for the first time. I was living in California at the time and I got on the first place to London.I stayed there for a few weeks and by the time I returned, I packed everything up and moved to Las Vegas. I moved around a few times before finally deciding on New York because I remembered that Michael stayed here.Now, however, there was nowhere for me to run. It wasn’t because I couldn’t, I had too much to leave here. I could always leave the office and go to one of the many branches over the country so it wasn’t about work, but I had Hayley. I wasn’t completely sure if I had her, she seemed ready to run but I couldn’t blame her.I had to leave her in bed this morning

    HAYLEY’S P.O.VI woke up with the knowledge that someone was in my room.I didn’t know who it was but there was a feeling at the back of my neck that alerted me to the fact that I was being watched. I couldn’t brush it off no matter how hard I tried so I reached out for the nightlight and turned it on casting the room in a warm orange glow. I found the person staring at me seated right opposite my bed.I glanced over at the clock beside me. It read one thirty a.m. “How long have you been here?”“In your room or in your house?” Jake asked not missing a beat.To his credit, he didn’t seem to be drunk but then again, he never drank that much. Even if he did drink at whatever time he arrived here first, chances were that the alcohol was already out of his system and he was sober.“My house,” I responded to his earlier question.“Eleven.”“My room?”“Twelve.”I raised a brow. I wondered how I didn’t realize he was here earlier. I was the kind o child who woke up the minute someone opened m

    HAYLEY’S P.O.VIt was amusing how many people were interested in my love life.I tried to keep my head screwed on straight, tried to focus on making my day run as smoothly as possible but everyone else had other plans. Everyone had an opinion about my relationship, even my clients would allude to it during our meetings. I tried to keep everything as professional as possible but by lunch, I was tired.As usual, Jake sent me lunch and Sienna brought it up for me. I had no idea why she chose to act like my personal assistant but I wasn’t complaining because I truly didn’t want to leave my office and face the crowd. It had little to do with fear and more to do with the fact that if I did and someone said the wrong thing, I was going to snap.“You can sit here if you want,” I told Sienna and her eyes widened in surprise. “Stop staring at me like you just won the lottery.”“I don’t know if you’ve noticed, Hayley, but you are not exactly a people person. You don’t invite people into your off

    HAYLEY’S P.O.VMy father was in my boyfriend’s living room.It took me longer than it should have it process what I was seeing because for a full minute, I just stood there staring and wondering if what I was seeing was an apparition or a figment of my imagination.Dad was in a tailored suit and he sat at the counter with Jake. They were looking over the files together and I just stood there watching until I felt a warm hand on my shoulder. Kate handed me a mug of steaming hot coffee with a smile.“You look like you’ll need that,” she whispered and I couldn’t help but laugh. I did need it.The sound caught my father’s attention and he turned to me with a smile. He walked over to me and placed a soft kiss on my forehead. I was suddenly so grateful that I decided to put on something before coming down. It would have been incredibly distasteful for my father to see me in nothing but Jake’s shirt.“Did you bring clothes for me?” I asked and his brows furrowed in confusion. “Work clothes,

    HAYLEY’S P.O.V“Hayley,” I heard Jake call my name but his voice sounded like a buzzing in my ears.I could hear my father speaking but I couldn’t make out his words. My eyes were completely fixed on the words on my screen. I knew it was Marie, it had to be her. No one else could have leaked the news to the press in record time.I wasn’t sure whether to be pissed or impressed. I had grossly underestimated her and that was my mistake. She was a cunning individual and I wish I had thought about that before I pissed her off and became her number one enemy.A warm hand settled on my shoulder and I nearly jumped. Jake looked pissed but also sad at the same time. He watched me with a fear in his eyes as if he thought I was going to run away and leave him. I could tell he wanted to do more than just touch my shoulder but he was holding back for my benefit.“She’s smart, I’ll give her that,” I said finally and I could see everyone’s faces twist with confusion. I lifted my phone to my ear and
