My stepfather’s cold eyes bore into mine, unmoved.“Give me another chance!” I pleaded, my voice cracking with desperation.“I know I failed before, but I’ve learnt from my mistakes.” I pleaded again, my words tumbling out in a rush. ”I’ve changed, I swear, give me another chance.”“Hmmm.” He leans back in his seat, His expression thoughtful. “I don’t doubt that you’re a changed person,” His voice measured “My priority is, and always will be, the company’s well-being.” he said with a serious look on his face. “I know, all I’m asking for is”…“Enough! I’ve heard you.” “you may leave now”. I rose, relief washing over me “I won’t let you down a second time,” I promised.As I turned to leave, his words halted me. “Your decisions nearly ruined the life of this company” He said as I made for the door, “If you take one wrong step, you’re out for real this time!” Reginald Owen wasn’t the one to mince words or make idle threats, I needed no interpreter to let me know that he was serious.

He had swept me off my feet, and I had fallen deeply in love with him.My stepfather was against our relationship, feeling that everything was moving too quickly, But I didn’t care; he had no idea how deeply in love I was with Leonard.

MICHAEL’S POVI glanced at my watch, the silver Rolex gleaming in the fading light. “How long till the business meeting?” I asked as I reached for my cigarette pack.“An hour, sir.” Alex replied. I nodded, taking a long drag on my cigarette as I leaned against the car.Great, enough time to enjoy the cool evening breeze before listening to the ramblings of old men.Just as I was starting to relax, Alex spoke up again.“The Elite group also wants to meet up concerning the approval of that deal. They suggested meeting tonight as well.” I raised an eyebrow then turned to Alex, my eyes narrowing“So, you scheduled a meeting with them… tonight?” Alex nodded his expression neutral. “Yes sir”“Cancel it. I have another engagement.” What was he thinking? All day I've been in and out of meetings with different companies and groups nope, not tonight, I need to rest.“Your grandfather thinks it's better to finalize the deal tonight.” He paused“Think about it, they’ve been sending representat

Nora’s POV“You have nowhere to hide nora!” His voice echoed as I unsteadily made my way in the darkness.I couldn’t see clearly and for a moment I wondered where his butler and aid had gone. Had they abandoned me to face this monster alone? I stretched out my shaky hands, searching for a door or window, any means of escape. My fingers brushed against a door handle, I grasped it with all my might but my strength failed me, I had only managed to support myself up until then. “Help me! Anyone? I whispered as I struggled with the door handle with tears in my eyes.Suddenly, I felt a warm breath on the back of my neck. “Hmmm, someone is calling for help,” he whispers into my ears and my weak body grows cold. “Noooo!” I screamed, summoning every last ounce of strength in me as he grabs me by the throat “Let go of me you monster!” I kicked and struggled but he was too strong for me.Just as all hope seemed lost, I jolt awake, gasping for air. “It was all a dream” I sigh. I slowly open my

“You're not going anywhere… yet”My whole body trembled at that statement. His voice dripped with an air of control. Here I was thinking that he had no ulterior motive. Such a fool for trusting him.Michael’s POVI watched her as her eyes got darkened by that statement, her body trembling beneath my grasp. I immediately released her hand. she's probably thinking I have something up my sleeves, but really do I? I cleared my throat. “You’re still very weak, you can barely walk.”She looks at me, unsure of what to say “But if you want to leave, you’re free to. After you’ve had something to eat.”Her eyes narrowed, as if searching for hidden motives “And Why do you care?” Her innocent face is squeezed into a grin, She just can't be taken seriously.But why do I care? I won't have a dead body on my hands.Her attention shifted, she began searching for something. what must she be looking for?

Michael’s PovI gazed at the sea of expectant faces as I began.“The company is looking towards more developments in the area of Tech for the next two years, we plan on channeling the company’s resources towards this goal”.My words felt hollow as I forced a smile.My thoughts drifted off to last night’s event and the infuriating encounter with Nora this morning.I clenched my jaw recalling how she had stormed out after I offered reasonable advice. The memory totally changed my moodI refocused on the meeting, scanning the room to ensure I had everyone’s attention. My expression was stern.I highlighted specific company objectives that was crucial to the meeting and after 10 minutes of dwelling on them.

Michael’s POV****“I don’t care about the current rate, the goods must be shipped according to the terms of our agreement.”The young man seated in my office shifted uncomfortably as I finished my sentence.“You look hot, should I turn up the volume of the A.C?” The discomfort was exactly what I wanted.“Em, sir I am good. The thing is that with the inflation prices up, my company needs time to adjust before we could, ship the goods to Italy.”“So in essence you need time?”“Yes sir” came the fast response.I made a posture of someone thinking hard. “You have until thursday.”“Sir.” Please sir, consider the current state of the economy”“The Blackwood Conglomerate will not tolerate backsliding companies.

I turned to face Alex “You knew about this? You could have said something!” “I had no choice sir.” I clenched my fist. There was no use getting mad at AlexI made a resolved look at my grandfather “well, I won’t have you run my life for me, I won’t go on any dates.” I said with every resolution in my breath.He chuckled slightly “I guess the company isn’t as precious to you as I thought”.My face fell. I’m screwed! My grandfather sure knows how to get to me, without doing much!He knows how hard I’ve worked to maintain the company and my contributions to its growth since he retired.My grandfather could go any length to get what he want, but he went too far this time.“Seems like you don’t have a choice, boy.” He said, breaking the silence.

I can’t let him have his way!“Fine, give me six months to fi
