"The bride was fake…"

The words that came out from Steve's mouth resounded in the secretary's head, for a moment, he froze and glanced at his boss.

"You… boss, are you playing on my intelligence?" He blurted out finding it hard to concentrate on driving, his gaze drifted to his boss at often times.

Steve moved his brows and said nothing but, his expressionless face was enough of proof that he was speaking the truth. The secretary nearly choked on the information.

"This…" James was left speechless after he found out about what happened to his boss. If he had not heard those words from Steve himself, he would never believe it and although it was the man that told him, he still had a hard time accepting the piece of information. He was so shocked that his boss's bride was switched and no one even found out on that day.

He was sure that it was the model that he saw but on second thought, it could have also been that the person wore a mask too.

He looked through the mirror and was ab

    Serene sat absentmindedly in from of the dressing table, her eyes glared at her reflection in the mirror expressionlessly. She was not exactly looking at herself but it seems more like she was lost in the space. A wooden comb was in her hand and she brushed her hair in a daze. She was rather slow and sluggish and no one knew what was in her mind. "Beep beep…" it was the familiar sound of her phone that drew her back to reality. "Ah!" She snapped out of her reverie and dropped the comb on the table. She looked around for her phone and when she saw it, she picked up the call that came through. It was a call from Paige. "Hello, Rene!" Paige's sweet voice rang out through the speaker of the phone and it feel on Serene's ear. Just as usual, Paige had her pleasant and happy go aura that could even be felt over the phone. "Hi, Paige" Serene answered, she looked away from her reflection in the mirror and pressed the phone closer to her ear. She was trying to put all of her attention on th

    Serene felt her throat was dry and patched, she placed the book that she was reading on the table and stood up. She pushed the door of the room and walked out of the room. She picked her steps and walked in the direction of the kitchen. She grabbed a cup from the cabinet on getting to the kitchen and poured warm water into the cup. Serene lifted the cup to her lips and sipped the water slowly. Just then, she heard the sound of the door bell and her brows arched slightly. She was not expecting anyone and neither did Steve tell her about anybody's arrival either. She thought to ignore the sound of the bell at first but the person at the door was quite persistent. Serene carefully placed the glass of water on the table and walked out of the kitchen. She reached the door and first peered through the security camera to see who it was that was by the door. She was being careful because at the moment, she was using Amy's identity. If it was someone that she knew, she would not need to hid

    Just as soon as she donned on the pearl earrings that came with the dress, she heard the sound of a knock on the door. She hurried threw away the thoughts in her head and kept her phone in the purse. She pinched the sides of the dress, lifted it and walked out of the room. Serene opened the door and saw James who had come to receive him. He bowed slightly when he saw her and then lifted his head until his eyes fell on her face. Seeing the familiar and unfamiliar face before him, he was stunned speechless, his jaw fell and for a brief moment, he could not find any words to say to her. "Miss Ser– Amelia?" He coughed lightly. At that point, he had no idea on how to address her. He was so shocked that a person can switch appearance so easily. This trickery that was played on his boss had been well planned out that even he could not tell the difference. He could not help but wonder what his boss's thoughts would be at this point. Serene had no idea of what the Secretary was thinking in

    After the dinner ended, James drove the car over and came to pick Serene and Steve after they had bade the old chairman farewell. The car was awkwardly silent all through the drive back to the apartment. No one uttered a word till the car halted in front of Steve's apartment and they got out. Serene quietly walked behind Steve as he took long strides into the house. She did not know why it felt as though she was sitting on pins and needles behind him. She was nervously staring at his back. She could not tell why but his attitude towards her since the evening was so cold and unusual. It made her feel uneasy. Serene mindlessly walked behind him until they got to the bedroom. Steve did not even give her a chance to react when he suddenly turned around and in the next second, his sturdy arm wrapped around her waist and pulled her closer to his body. Her body jolted and she froze from the sudden contact. "W-what are you doing?" She stuttered. Her voice came out as a tiny squeak that she

    Serene's attention quickly drifted to the direction of her phone. She brought it out of the small purse that was with her and clicked the answer button. She did not even check who it was before she picked the call. "Hello" she voiced and pressed the phone to her ear. "Where did you go today?" A sweet feminine voice reached her ear and she froze. She was familiar with the caller's voice and of course, she was could guess who it was already. "Amy" she uttered with a bit of uncertainty. "Ah, Miss Serene. You are just as smart as I remember you to be. Even though I switched number, you can still recognize me. That is good" Amy voiced, a hint of laughter sounded in her voice as she spoke. Serene's face remained expressionless, she merely made a nasal sound in response. "So… since you already know who it is that a calling, I want to know how our deal is going. Are you playing my role properly?" Amelia snickered lightly and questioned. The light in Serene's eyes dimmed involuntarily,

    Serene opened her eyes at dawn according to her registered body alarm. She had not been able to sleep the entire night and the dark circles around her eyes were obvious. A light yawn slipped past her lips and she tried to lift her hands but she found out that she could not. She frowned and slanted her head. Her eyes fell on a slightly opened chest that was revealed to her eyes. Her eyes popped open instantly, they enlarged almost to the size of a saucepan. She wanted to run away but she found out that she was trapped in those scalding embrace. She looked at him carefully and saw that his eyes were still closed, probably he was still asleep. She inhaled deeply and tried her best to calm her palpitating heart. She raised her hand that was not trapped in his arms and touched his hand that was wrapped around her waist. Her thoughts were that if she could peer his hand away from her waist, she would be able to slip away from him. Everything she could think about at that moment was how s

It jerked my froze heart awake and I could hear my heart beating and rocking hard against my ribcage. I have never felt so alive in all my years of existence. I peered down at the woman who was struggling in my hands, her eyes were closed and her face were thoroughly flushed. Even the shade of a ripe tomato could not be compared to the taint on her cheeks. It was at the moment that I know what I really wanted. This woman, I did not intend to ever let her go. I lowered my body again and kissed her tender lips once again. Her lips were simply so soft that I just want to keep biting. Like grapes, the sweetness melted in my mouth, I sucked and swallowed. "Mhm…" she sighed softly. Her sweet noise cause a pool of warmth to rush to my groins. I inhaled deeply and ground my teeth. I can feel my veins pounding with aggressive blood. My blood became h

    After she escaped his clutches and rushed into the kitchen, Serene's mind was constantly filled with the flashes from the kissing scene. Her face was tainted with a bright shade of pink and she seemed to be in a daze. She did not even realize when she took out the vegetables from the refrigerator and how she began cooking. Her heart was pounding within her chest and her head was messy. She could not think properly. The kissing scene kept on reoccurring in her mind and she swallowed. She picked up a carrot and stood blankly without cutting it. Why did he kiss me? Was the question that she kept on asking herself over and over again. She did not even find an answer to it instead, it was the man's face that popped into her mind. The feeling of not being able to control her thoughts was becoming scarier. She raised her hand and touched her lips slightly, she flinched. It was almost as though she could feel the surreal sensation from the moment he kissed her again. "What are you doing?

    After Serene and Paige had separated ways, the words of Paige kept on resonating in Serene's head, no matter how hard she tried, she could not just stop thinking about it. A soft sigh slipped past her lips and she pinched the space between her brows in exasperation. She pressed her back against the seat of the car and closed her eyes. "Miss, we are at your stop" after a while, the voice of the driver reached her eyes and she opened her eyes. "Oh, thanks" Serene mumbled gently and got out of the car. She paid her fare before turning around and walking away. It was a good thing that the area Steve bought his apartment was a private residential area, if not, she may have been noticed by someone each time she went out but because of the privacy of the area, she could move around easily as much as she wanted without having fear of her identity being discovered.

    "Are you hiding something from me?" Paige asked after a moment of silence. Serene did not raise her head to look at her, she tightened her fingers around her cup and shook her head. "What can I be hiding from you?" She mumbled. "Rene… I know you" Paige uttered with a soft sigh. Serene raised her head and arched her brows. She was only quiet for a moment before she opened her mouth to talk again. "You are not allowed to lie to me" Paige suddenly pointed and said. Serene arched a brow before she helplessly closed the mouth that she opened. She fell speechless. Paige sighed softly and pushed her cup aside, she leaned across the table and faced her best friend. "Rene, did anything happen lately?" Paige asked. Serene lowered her eyes and did not answer immediately, she could not help but think about the question Paige asked her. Did anything happen? Yes, something did happen and it had been making her filled her mind with uneasiness. The man… Steve, he has been treating her diffe

    Laughter filled her ears as soon as she walked into the ward and she arched a surprising brow. She looked in the direction of the bed, she saw her brother was sitting straight and Paige was sitting on a chair close to him. She had no idea what Paige must have said to her brother that made him have such a beautiful smile on his face. The smile was gentle and it brightened his dull face. This scene that she saw when she walked in melted her heart. "Sister" Jordan said as soon as noticed Serene's presence. Serene smiled when she heard her brother's voice and she hurried towards him. "How are you doing?" Serene asked. "I am very well, look at me, I feel so good already" Jordan answered. "Mm" Serene nodded, "that is good". "How are you doing, bestie?

    "Where were you last night? I saw that you called me but I was busy and only saw the call this morning, did something happen?" Amelia asked. In the past, it was always her who called Serene first and because she had instructed Serene to only call her if something happened, she assumed that it was the case when she saw Serene's missed call. Serene's body stilled when she heard the question. She remembered calling Amelia once out of panic when she got the summon from the old chairman. She had even forgotten about this. And after the event of the day before, she did not even remember about the model at all. To think that she even slept with her 'husband' again, she felt a jolt in her heart. "Hey, are you listening to me?" Amelia's voice rang into her ear again. She blinked and pushed back her thoughts. "Mm, I was called over by the old chairman yesterday, I was at his place" she answered truthfully. "You went to see the old chairman? Is it just you or did Steve go with you?" The lady

    For a split second, Serene froze with her eyes wide opened. She never expected that he would suddenly kiss her and what's more, he kissed her quite aggressively. She placed her hand on his chest and pushed but, he was too strong for her. She clenched her teeth indignantly, the rim of her eyes reddened in anger but Steve did not consider any of her emotions. Seeing that she would not stop struggling and would not allow him to get into her mouth, he bit her directly on her lips until the metallic taste of her blood hit their taste buds. Serene flinched, she involuntarily parted her lips and the man delved into her mouth. His tongue, hot and slippery overbearingly squeezed into her mouth and swept through every corner. He encroached and attack every part of her mouth and placed his mark on her. Their tongues moved together and their breathe mixed. He licked and sucked, stealing her breathe away until she forgot how to breath. After what seem like forever, Steve eventually let go of he

    Serene walked to the house and reached for the door. She walked in and just as she was about to turn on the light, she was pulled into a warm embrace. At first, she was shocked and wanted to scream but when she inhaled a familiar fragrance she calmed down. Serene only allowed him to hug her for a few seconds before her eyes widened and she suddenly pushed his chest. Steve however would not allow her to push him away easily, he grabbed her wrist and looked intently into her eyes. "What are you doing?" He questioned and in return, she stared back at him with her glossy orbs and thought for a moment before returning the question. "Why are you here?" She calmly asked. Steve narrowed his eyes slightly and tge air dropped around them. Serene blinked, she realized that she asked something wrong, she cleared her throat and paraphrased. "I thought your trip this time would be for a few days, did you finish early?" She asked. The cold air dissipated and the man fixed his gaze on her. It

    "We are here, madam" the middle-aged man voiced. Serene raised her head and her eyes widened. Where in the world had she come to?! She yelled in her heard when she saw the vast green area, she saw a few old men hanging around the place holding some sort of sticks and a familiar white ball. She had almost even forgotten about the reason that she was there when she looked at the vast land. Who would have thought that behind the mansion, something like this existed?!The golf course was unexpectedly large, it occupied a vast area of land and it stretched over with a green grass carpet. She saw a few of the old men in the area hitting the golf ball with the stick and looking expectantly as it rolled into the hole. It was this scene that she saw and it made her slightly lost."Old Chairman, it looks like your granddaughter-in-law that you invited has arrived!" The sudden announcement cause Serene to snap out of her thoughts and she trembled slightly. Ah, she had arrived…How could she
