POV: Miguel

My table tipped offer and a waiting approaching my table stumbled on the chaos and fell with the foods she was carrying on a tray. Another waiter fell next to him and before you knew it, it was a pile-up, a disaster indeed.

“I’m so sorry, I’ll pay for damages, whatever it will cost me I’ll pay, I promise. But that’s my sister, Marisol, I need to get to her before she leaves with Raphael.” I told the manager in a hurry as I searched my pocket, trying to get my wallet and pay for the accident I just caused.

“Asshole!

That’s not Marisol!

That’s Raphael Hawkins beautiful Fiancée, Victoria Kendall!

Look what you caused because of your hallucinations, you need to see a doctor quickly!” An angry customer who had been involved in the accident yelled furiously at me. One of the waiters must have spilled soup on him because he is covered in it. I couldn’t respond to his accusation because I caused this accident and everyone is already so pissed off at me. Besides, he just called m

    POV: Miguel “You actually thought the Hawkins would stop and come over here to speak with you?” the arrogant guy asked me rudely. I sneered at him, trying not to punch him in the fucking face. If he had said one more thing to annoy me, I would have given him a good beating right here. But I wasn’t in the mood for trouble, the last thing I want is to start a fight that would delay me and keep me from catching up with Marisol. I forced my way through the crowd, maneuvering through the excited men and women who kept trying to catch up with his car. I managed to catch up with the last car before it zoomed off, but one of his guards stepped down and pushed me off roughly, warning me to back off. I tried to explain to him, but he still pushed me off, refusing to look at me twice. He was delaying me and Marisol’s car was already going too far for me to catch up with her. I left him and ran back to my car, and I zoomed off immediately, ignoring the valet and security guards who tried to s

His eyes were fixed on me, he looked so dumbfounded and I couldn’t help smiling in his direction because he looked so beautiful.I smiled and he smiled back at me, his eyes lighting up like a Christmas tree. I couldn’t stand and stare back at him for long because we were finally going to Dominic’s house to see Claire.

    POV: Victoria “Quite playing around, Claire! We went through hell to get him to listen to us and let you go. Now he said you can leave on your own terms and you say you are not leaving? What the hell is wrong with you, have you gone mad?” I asked her furiously, yelling at the top of my voice. But she couldn’t care less about my anger, she made her decision and stuck to it. I couldn’t get her to listen to me, not even Mom could get her to change her mind and come home. It’s been two days since we spoke to her and I was getting so restless and worried about her, that I didn’t even get the chance to speak with her after she hung up on Mom angrily. It has never happened before, not even when she was forced to break up with Kyle before Mom was hospitalized. She had never been this furious with anyone, and now she is blaming me for Kyle's death, blaming Mom, and even blaming Raphael who wasn’t there when Mom and I forced her to break up with Kyle and took her phone away. But we l

    POV: Victoria “What were you saying to Mom earlier today, why did she speak with you and not me?” I asked him out of the blue, breaking the silence between us.“You have got to be kidding me right now!Are you fucking kidding me?!” He yelled angrily. “First you were drooling over some stupid boy you just saw and now you want to know what I discussed with your mom?How did we go from that to this, were you thinking about it the whole day?Why didn’t you just ask me the moment you thought of it, why wait until now when we have other important matters to attend to. You could channel all these energies into taking back the company from your father and becoming an independent woman like your mom always wanted.” He told me angrily. “So that’s it then?” I let out with a smirk.You know, I was wondering why you were so upset with me. I thought it was my mom or the guy I was staring at earlier. I even thought it was because of what Dominic said earlier. But it seems I’ve been wrong and stup

I know everyone thinks he is a bad person because of his job, but he is not as mean as they make him out to be. He is so cute, so nice and loving.” She told me excitedly, a blush creeping up on her face. “Remember when you stuck with Raphael and agreed to be with him despite the rumors flying around about him and his relationship with his family?That is exactly how it is with Dominic and I. Everyone just looks for his flaws and not his good side. He is not as bad as they make him out to be, he is the best man I’ve ever met,” she confessed excitedly, making me laugh at her silly comparison.Like, how does she c

She handed it to Victoria with a warm smile on her face, “Dominic wants you to have this as a sign of good will. He said to tell you that it’s just a little gift from your sister, Claire.” She told her, making her teary all of a sudden. She turned around, and she spotted Claire by the window blinds staring at her with tears in her eyes. She is not happy with her sister, I could see it in her eyes. But she sure as hell didn’t plan to leave so angrily and cut off ties with her sister. That wasn’t the plan when we decided to come over here, the plan was to get Claire to calm down and not to get Victoria pissed off as well. She is just too pissed to be reasoned with.

Just keep him away from me, I’m not related to him and I don’t want to be!” She called out from the top of the stairs, giving orders to Dominic as if he were her bestie or something. I opened my mouth in shock, and I didn’t need anyone telling me that it was all her. Whatever she is doing to her family is not an order from Dominic. It’s all her!She fucking hate their guts right now. It’s as if she suddenly changed into a completely different person, she doesn’t even want to hear anything I have to say, and she used to be so cheerful and chatty around me, what changed?“What in the world did you do to her?” I asked in shock, looking at him as if he were some strange creature from another planet. “Really, Raphael?Really?” Dominic asks in annoyance. “Did you forget about our plans to help the girls already, are you going to side with your girlfriend and blame me for making her sister bold and fearless?” he responded an

It’s on the same road as the restaurant where we had met Dominic earlier today. I wonder if she went back there to meet with that guy. Is she planning to have an affair with him?“Wait, how do you know she came here, how did you know where I’ll find her?” I asked him curiously. I know he didn’t just point it out of the blue. He looked as if he knew exactly where she was before we even got to that spot. “Of course I had her followed, what the hell is wrong with you?Do you think I would let her walk away without a guard? That’s stupid!And you need to do better, Ralph, you need to take better care of your woman and treat her special!” He warned me sternly, trying to keep a straight face but failing at it.“Really?Are you really going to give me a speech on mor

  • Flirting With The Boss   Epilogue

    POV: RaphaelIt took a few days for the girls to get back on their feet. Turns out the poison Eloise used on them is a deadly chemical that could turn them invalid for the rest of their lives if not handled properly. If they had stayed there longer for her to administer another dosage, it would have been detrimental to their health. Good thing we got to them on time, good thing we took her out before she could hurt them more than she already has, especially Victoria who is a few weeks pregnant with my child. She had no idea she was pregnant, I had no fucking idea. It was discovered during her body exam at the hospital, and I couldn’t be happier in my life. This changes everything…It doesn’t just validate our relationship; it’s going to keep every other man away from her; it will be the one reason why I will fight everyone, including my grandfather, just to keep her. I couldn’t take my eyes away from her, even when she fell asleep on the hospital bed. It’s amazing to know that a lit

    POV: VictoriaSo it turns out that Eloise Kendall was still lying and playing games with us down to the last minute. After the building exploded, Raphael got up as fast as he could and ran up to me, making sure I was okay. Miguel was here the next second, and they smothered me with love and care, checking to see if I was not hurt. “Claire…My sister…Where is my sister, where is Claire?” I managed to ask in my confused state, turning around to find her. They heard me asking for her, and they turned around with me, searching for her. We spotted her in Dominic’s arms as he struggled to get her to wake up.“No! No! No! No!Claire!Wake up!Claire!” I called out to her, struggling to get up but failing miserably as usual. Raphael took one look at me, and he turned in my direction, and he knew I needed my sister. “Stay with her; keep her safe!” he told Miguel as he left my side and ran to Claire’s side, administering mouth-to-mouth while Dominic called out to her, yelling at the top of h

    POV: Victoria“Move away from here; she has a bomb; she is going to kill us all!” I yelled in Carl’s direction as I saw him approaching us slowly, thinking that my Mom was not seeing him. Of course, she is seeing him through the device in her hand; she knew the moment they took off the power grid that they were here. She came up to us and smiled excitedly, clapping her hands as if it were the happiest day of her life.“The guys are here to save you. Your Prince Charming has arrived, and they came prepared to save you. Are you not excited?” She asked us, smiling so happily. I turned to Claire in fear, and she had the same look of fear on her face, too. “Let them go, Mom; they don’t have to die because of us,” I begged her.“Of course, they do. Why the hell would you ever think that they deserve to live, why would you think that?” she asked me angrily.“I have been waiting for them for so long, they are the reason why we are still here. Of course, they would get what they deserve; the

    POV: Raphael“How is he?” I asked Miguel a few minutes later after he spoke to the guys he put in charge of his parents. We have been waiting for their report and for a minute there we thought that something bad has happened, we thought they were under another attack from Eloise. We were contemplating whether or not to cancel the mission tomorrow and go back to Havana to save the Myers and get them out of town before coming back to face Eloise. But the call came in just a few minutes before we made the decision to cancel the mission. Turns out that the guys are even more efficient than we thought. Immediately after Shaun came out from surgery, they moved him and the Myers out of the hospital and took them to a safe house outside the city. “You did good, guys; I’m proud of you. Where are they now? Where did you take them?” he asked the boys after confirming that they were safe. “I’m sorry boss, but we can’t disclose our location to anyone yet, not even you, Mr Myers.” They told him

    POV: RaphaelWe were all awake all night, going over the plans over and over again, looking for any flaws. Dominic and I did not have any misunderstanding as we worked together, in fact, you will never know that we even had a fight before we started. Saving the girls is more important to us and that’s what we focused on.We could not walk up to the front gate together because that was where she was expecting us to follow. We flew a drone over the property, and we saw that half of her security guards were stationed at the entrance, waiting patiently for us. I’m sure that she must be expecting us to show up at her gate any moment from now. I mean, she wasn’t expecting us to back down, was she?“Get the helo ready, we leave two hours after the ground team,” I instructed Carl. We decided to split the teams into two so one team could create a diversion while the second team sneaks into the house and saves the girls. We agreed to use a helicopter to drop a few guys on the building while th

I’m too busy to deal with your attitude, Raphael, I mean it!” He told me furiously, glaring daggers at me. It’s obvious to everyone looking that this guy is angry with me for a completely different reason. I mean, he cannot be this furious because I said I wasn’t helping, right?“I’ll do anything to save Victoria, even if it means putting up with your bullshit!” I told him, repeating my earlier response and ignoring his earlier comments about my attitude.“Are you testing my patience? Are you trying to piss me off?” he yelled at me, letting the others turn to us curiously as they wondered what was going on between us. I turned to face him and he came to stand in front of me, glaring at me as if he wanted to punch me.“If you have something to say, why don’t you say it to my fucking face, Dominic. You keep saying you have moved past my betrayal, but

    POV: Raphael“Shaun, what is going on over there, Are you hurt?” Miguel asked him in a panicked tone as he got up immediately and viewed his body to see where he was shot. I’d already seen it when the nurse took his phone but I didn’t say anything because I don’t want to get him more worried and upset than he is presently. He was shot in the chest and stomach, and I could tell that he is in pain, but he is just faking it to put Miguel’s mind at ease. It would break Everyone if something bad happens to him. I know I only just met the guy today, but trust me, I would feel it too because he is such a great guy and he doesn’t deserve to die. I see him like Carl, he is loyal to a fault, just like Carl. I could see it in his eyes that he would do anything to protect the Myer’s, even putting his life at risk for them. He is still bleeding from the gunshots, the bullet has not been taken out and the bleeding has not stopped. He must have lost a lot of blood while waiting for Juliette Mye

I wanted to refute his decision one more time, but he stopped me with a wave of his hand, dismissing what I had to say as if it didn’t matter. “Save it, Ralph, I don’t want to hear it!” He told me angrily, glaring at me. “Tomorrow, I’m saving the girls and bringing them home to their family and loved ones. You can keep planning and stalling for as long as you want, I don’t care. But I’ll advise you to stay the fuck out of my way before you get hurt!” he warned me, walking past me and heading back outside. He turned around when he got to the door and he turned to Miguel and said,“I'm going out there to make plans on how to save your sister and my woman. You can

I have not been sending updates to him as he instructed. I’ve been too busy to even think about him. As expected, he was angry with me, and his tone was so rude when I called to inform him that Miguel and I were crashing at his house tonight. I thought he was just being unnecessarily angry. I mean, I know I didn’t call him to give him updates, but he should have called me to, right?When he didn’t hear from either me, Carl, or even Miguel, he should have known that something was wrong, and he should have called to find out what was happening. He knows the enemy we are facing is so cunning and evil. He should have called us to check up on us and see if we were okay. But he didn’t call either, and now he is pissed at me for nothing.I was getting ready to give him a piece of my mind, but when I set my eyes on him, I immediately felt guilt
