Darian Woods

The sun had not yet risen as I hurriedly made my way downstairs. Jack had gotten a call from the security at the headquarters that they suspect an infiltration as the CCTV cameras and database connections in the building just went down all of a sudden. It was a few minutes past 4 am, and they were trying to access the company's database already, indeed my enemy was serious and it seemed as though the danger was lurking around.

"What do we do, Darian?" Jack said to me as he caught up with me in the sitting room.

"I don't know for now. Let's go there," I replied making my way outside.

"Which progress has been made", I asked him as we stepped into the car. The driver had already been alerted and he swiftly rolled the car over to us.

"Every hand in the ICT dept is on deck and they're trying to break the barrier that has been created. With what the security said, no one had successfully entered inside as they have all been on alert, but there's a high chance that they won't

    Darian Woods"He had been here," I whispered to myself again. As much as I tried running and going away from wherever didn't feel safe, a part of me still came searching after me. My eyebrows furrowed as I quickly scanned the environment, checking to see if he was still around or if there was another trace of him somewhere.Walking closer to the table, I picked up the red pearl brooch pin antique that had been placed on my table. "Was it me just overthinking things?" I spoke out, my voice sounding like a whisper. If I was certain, that was his signature mark as he had always loved brooch pin antiques, and pearl turned out to be his favorite jewel.Still not certain if it was him, as I did not want to conclude, I raised the brooch pin to my nose, and the smoldering scent of woody oud mixed with the scent of lavender oil wafted through my nose.Even if anything could fail me, the scent was enough proof. It was his usual fragrance, with the same type of brooch pins he wore and it was

    Raising Adrian as a single mother was not totally my problem as I was financially stable and could fall back on my family who was in the middle rank in society, though I chose to not depend on them. My only fear every day was him asking for his father and the sadness he may develop if I can't show him someone as a Father figure. I picked up the remote, and switched the television over to the entertainment channel I enjoyed watching, with my hands holding on to the toasted bread, I picked from a plate.Biting on it, I giggled continuously, watching everything in front of me. It was a family reality show, with the Dad, Mom, and her triplets that intentionally disturbed her like they were devils."I'm thick skin for you, your tricks won't work," the woman from the reality show yelled out frustratedly, making me smile even further.Imagining that a time will come when Adrian will be so grown up, and causing me to raise my voice to him, freaked me out.Finally, he was in school, and I had

    Darian WoodsOne year later..."You are saying that there is still no news about Brandon?" I asked Jack, with my brows raised in inquiry."There's still nothing, President Darian," he said, nodding his head to me.I did not even know if I was going to yell at him, or just bring in new sets of the workforce as I no longer understood anything that happened anymore concerning the office, and their capability to bring down my enemy, Brandon."And Gazel? You are still in touch with him?" "Yes, President Darian. It seems Brandon kept the evidence in a place so secure, that it feels difficult to access. Also, we don't know if he has any duplicates, as it seems like he is well prepared for this fight," Jack stated.I almost screamed out, "cut the crap" to him, but I decided to hold it in, as it was not worth it, shouting at Jack. I needed to vent my anger somewhere, just anywhere else, as I have never felt so frustrated at a moment.My hands went up to the corners of my ears, rubbing slowly

    Swiftly moving through the steps at the first wing of Peng Technology, as I had to meet with my boss since I was running late, my breathing increased rapidly.The elevator of the first wing area in the office building just suddenly stopped working and I had to use the stairs. It turned out that on this particular day, I got to work late and still had to fix up everything from the previous day's work that was carried into the new day. Coming late only worsened things as the company had a meeting with some other company which I wasn't sure of the name since I was not the one in charge of handling those particular documents, by 2 pm. I had to finish the previous day's work and helped tidy the conference hall too. My boss was used to keeping things in order, I just did not understand why he specifically requested that I help arrange everything, and I could only wonder who the people were that had the meeting with Peng Technology, as my boss paid much respect to them from his actions."

    "Hello, Miss Bianca," I greeted out loud at a staff that works at the office. I was supposed to work alongside Bianca to fix the conference room for the big meeting my boss talked about.Bianca was the assistant secretary to the CEO, so she worked under me. She began to work at the office about three years back, and I also thought that she will be promoted to the position of a secretary while I was away. For some reason, the boss did not get along with her, even though he kept her as a staff.Before my relocation away from Carlton, she had this bitchy attitude, and always wanted to get on my toes. It just seemed like she knew better than that since my return because her attitude had changed for good, even though it felt like a pretense to me.Bianca hurried over to where I was, spreading her arms for a warm embrace, which got me squeezing myself into her warmth. She was just walking into the conference room to meet me. I had finished setting up the laptops and projectors and was onl

    Darian WoodsThe air around the entrance room carried the very familiar scent of Moriah, and I could swear that she had been around there.Looking around the conference room, I did not see any face that was hers, so I shoved the thoughts away. Besides, her same flowery scented cologne could be used by just anybody.My eyes took notice of the women around the room, while I was getting bored of the introduction that was going on. Two things were my concern at the moment, even though one wasn't that important.Closing up the deal that had brought me there was one. And the other, checking for a lady I could pass the day with. I did not want Charles getting call girls all the time, so business meetings were a good avenue. As I believed the ladies there were quite sensible enough to not cause me any stress.While my eyes roamed around the room, I noticed that something seemed amiss, even though I was not sure. My eyes went through the sitting arrangement, moving from seat to seat, trying

    Darian Woods"Moriah," I muttered, and she stared at me, startled.One thing I would not have believed even if I was told at any point earlier than this, was that I was going to meet Moriah not just in Carlton city but in Peng Technology, a company I had my eyes on. While she stayed with me, she was a staunch housewife that did not even step out into the outside world frequently. The workers did most of the shopping duties, and then she was left inside, suffocating in the locked walls of my mansion.My little mind refused to accept she was a staff there, so I raised my chin to her. Squinting my eyes, "what are you doing here?" I asked. After all, there were cases of people who went about trying to gum themselves to CEO's of big companies. I for one, have experienced it in the major part of my life. Besides, why did she have to jump, I thought internally with my eyes taking me to the window that was opened far above."Miss. Moriah," Mr. Gun called out, and I turned my face to him. Was

    Coming to face with Darian was one terrible thing that happened to me. I could feel my body shiver, and the hair on my skin stand from the emotions that rushed through me. How I got locked in the closet, I had no idea. But I was definitely going to address that issue later. Struggling for so long to open the door, without any help coming through, and my phone left behind in the conference room, I had no other option rather than to jump. My eyes caught hold of an open window inside the closet that was wide enough to accommodate a person that did not have so much body weight. A person likes me.After maneuvering my way around the walls of the toilet, and jumping down to the next room which was the tech room. My eyes came to face with Darian's.His cold, aloof expression was still the same, with no hope that he had become a better man. I could see the contempt that quickly gathered in his eyes on seeing me, and I had no other option but to raise my head low, avoiding his gaze.The co

    My heart kept hammering against my chest and it felt like though it would burst out any second. I glanced at Darian, then Jack and heard them talking about the company and how to improve the company's product. The way Darian sat down relaxed and talked with so much authority made him look so hot and I wanted nothing more but to be in his arms all day.My eyes widened in surprise at the nature of my thoughts and I immediately looked away.What the hell was wrong with me?I should be thinking about how to stay far away from him and not how I wanted to be in his arms all day.Was it possible that he charmed me?"Stop trying to act like you didn't like everything that happened between you guys," my conscience pricked me.No I didn't like it one bit but my traitorous body did like it. If only my body would cooperate with me, there was no way he'd have that much effects on me.I nodded my head, certain of the fact that I didn't like him one bit. Only my body did.I took another glance at t

    I couldn't help but wonder what I did to Karla to get such treatments from her. She had never acted rude the way she did today. She looked really mad at me as though we had been having problems before. I felt a little tempted to draw her back and ask her what the problem was. But I decided against it and thought to let her walk away instead.I stepped into the company building relaxed, aside from the worry about what Darian might do to me for leaving without his permission. Although I was worried, all that mattered was that Adrian was okay and he was in good hands. I found it hard to believe that Karla was the one talking to me that way. What if someone was impersonating her to make us at loggerheads with each other.Crazy thoughts. I scoffed. Once I entered, I saw him. Darian. He was lost in thoughts and I doubt he was aware that someone came in. His soft lips morphed into a frown and he had his hands on his jaw. He was deeply in thought.I wondered what he was thinking about tha

    "How is my son? Where is he?" I asked hysterically the moment I saw Ms. Juliette.I literally ran into the hospital the moment I alighted from the cab."Calm down Ms Moriah, the doctor is taking a look at him," Ms Juliette held my hand trying to calm me down."Don't tell me to calm down Juliette, I don't know how my son is doing and until I know how he is doing I won't calm down," I glowered angrily and she just backed away."What happened? How come he is suddenly sick? He wasn't sick when we left the house," I cast an accusatory glare at Ms Juliette. I had a feeling they had something to do with his sudden illness."We didn't do anything to him Ms Moriah. Please, try to understand and relax so the doctor will do his thing. Your son will be fine, it is the same thing that I want.""How am I to believe that," I huffed."You can ask his classmates.

    Darian WoodsI watched in both surprise and shock as Moriah rushed out without my permission, shutting the door loudly behind her. She really did have a child just like Jack speculated. I didn't believe Jack, when he said it but she confirmed it herself right in my presence.She looked so worried and she even had traces of tears in her eyes. I've never seen her this worried for anyone before, not even for me. She was disorganized and didn't even know what she was doing. All that was on her mind was her child and it made me jealous and a little pissed.Her eyebrows were drawn together in worry and her face was wrinkled. She was also tapping her feet anxiously as she asked me for permission to leave.Is she married? I asked myself. But when I went through her records her marital status was tagged single not married.Did she have a child out of wedlock?Did she remarry?Or did she go for a test tube baby?I was curious and jealous at the same time.Jealous because of the possible probabi

    Fear gripped me as I stared at the number, but this time, I did not take the call.I went around the house in my pajamas ensuring that everywhere was securely locked.I couldn't risk leaving any entrance open as I was suddenly scared of what I had no idea about.Falling to the bed, I sighed tiredly in relief. Another day with Darian completed and I was still alive.Staring up at the ceiling, I reminisced about my younger days. I was always hopeful that I'll end up with a loving man that will treat me like a princess and make me feel special.It was every young girl's dream them to end up with a man that will treat them like Cinderella. Blame it on too much fantasy.I was one of those girls. There were so many things I wanted to try out with the man I would get married to. So many trips I wanted to make with him. So many memories I wanted to create and one day look back on and smile.Unfortunately life had other plans for me and gave me Darian. Aside from his handsome face, he was the o

    "Moriah, can you bring the sausage for Adrian on your way back?" Jane yelled from the dining room."Alright," I yelled back. I washed my hands and dried it with the kitchen towel before searching for the sausage Jane asked for.I looked around and eventually found the sausage on the table. I didn't notice it before since it was wrapped in foil paper."There you are," I grabbed it and left the kitchen for the dining."It sure took you hours," Jane rolled her eyes and I ignored her. Taking Adrian's plate, I dished out his meal for him."Mommy hates searching for things and can be very lazy," Adrian giggled and I huffed."I'm not that lazy, the sausage just didn't want me to find it," I defended myself and took a seat opposite Adrian who sat beside Jane."Yes, obviously," Jane said sarcastically and I moued. I felt tempted to throw my shoe at her but I couldn't due to Adrian's presence."Quit grimacing at me like that," Jane said and I scoffed looking away. I could not believe that even A

    The blaring noise from the alarm woke me up and as much as I wanted to sleep a little more, I had to get up to dress Adrian up for school and get ready for work. I stretched my hands out and stopped the alarm. I sighed in relief, loving the silence again. I decided to sleep for just a minute before getting up. A minute wouldn't hurt anybody. "Mummy, wakeup!" Adrian barged into my room yelling and I groaned in frustration. "One minute baby," I mumbled, my eyes closed and he kept quiet. Exactly after a minute, he jumped on my bed shaking me. "It's one minute mom, I counted up to sixty. It's time to wake up." I reluctantly opened my eyes to meet with the beautiful eyes of my son, staring right back at me. He had the same eyes as Darian. His eyes were as blue as an ocean and I tend to drown in them whenever I stared too much. "Morning baby," I pinched his cheeks and he giggled. "Morning mommy," he kissed me on the cheeks and I smiled. Adrian was my joy and my reason for living. W
