My CEO's Baby Mama The Masquerade Ball
Bella I glanced at my phone where it sat on the center table. That was my twentieth time that day. Yep! I was counting. It had been a week since I had to move out of Xander's house. Since then, I have looked at my phone at least a hundred times— per day. Waiting— just waiting for a call or message from him. I hadn't spoken to Bruce either. I told him to stay away after the picture thing happened. I couldn't have Xander thinking it was true and I had something to do with him. I had lost both. The light tapping sound which came from the door startled me as it cut through the quiet like a blade, jerking me away from my thoughts. I sprung up to my feet from the couch. I had zero energy since Xander pushed me away but anytime there was a knock, my battery was restored. I ran to the door to see who it was, my fingers crossed that it was Xander. You needed to see the disappointment on my face. The knocks were coming from the room opposite ours. I waved absentmindedly at the kno
My CEO's Baby Mama I Found it
XanderThe muscles around my eyes and forehead were tense as I gazed piercingly at the cut in my hand which I got from the broken glass.I closed my eyes, groaning in pain as I pulled out the bit of glass in my thumb and watched my blood drip to the floor of the empty room.I heard moaning sounds coming from the opposite room and it only made me angrier.“She is here and in another man's arms! Does she ever stop?!” I said, clenching my fist.“That's not Bruce so who is it?”I wanted to go out and throw whoever it was a hard punch. I didn't care if it was the president's only child; I wanted to squeeze his neck until he ran out of breath.I paced around the room, thinking about my next move, when the door opened slowly. My eyebrows were drawn together as I turned quickly towards the direction.“Hey, hottie,” I heard the masked lady say. She took slow, deliberate steps towards me, swaying her hips in a quite abnormal manner. She maintained steady eye contact with me, her eyes telling me
My CEO's Baby Mama The Enemy Within
Xander My eyes moved from her buttocks to the back of her head with my jaw clenched tightly and she didn't seem to have realized what she had happened. She turned to look at me with her butt still touching my groin. I felt a nauseating disgust churn in my stomach as I glared at her through my narrowed eyes, giving her a piercing look. "Well?" She said, opening her hands in question while she anticipated what was never going to happen between us. First, she tried to seduce me and I suddenly realized that she was infact the one who tried to kill Bella. Not only that, she killed my baby! My lips pressed into a thin, hard line as I contemplated what to do to her. "Should I rip her organs apart? Or feed her body to the wild animals I owned?" "You're so boring," she said, after a few seconds of pushing herself into me. "I thought Bella said you were awesome." She picked up her torn dress and found a way to wrap it around herself in a way that didn't look like a lunatic was amo
My CEO's Baby Mama Rat Race
BellaI saw him alone, sweating profusely in a well air-conditioned room. "Why is he a little jittery though?" It was a sight I had never seen. Even when he lost his grandmother, the emotions were only found in his eyes; he was still as cold as ice.I had realized that my dance partner was infact Hardin. He increased the intensity of his grip on my waist when I tried to go after the person who caused a scene with the broken glass to find out if it was truly Xander. That sneak little bastard. He had tried to kiss me after staring into my eyes for a while. People be kissing just anybody these days, huh? I pushed him away and I pulled away his mask. I didn't understand why Bernice would pay Hardin to dance with me. Maybe she didn't know it was him?I bit my lips to punish myself for enjoying his company in the first place. I hated him! I should have recognized those devil like eyes through a tiny mask.He tried to stop me when I tried to walked away from him, holding me so tightly, I c
My CEO's Baby Mama Tied up
BellaI didn't care at that moment who spoke. I was glad it wasn't Hardin. I had three men after me and I had favourites. It was all fun and games as I simply watched, until..."Two hund—" Bruce began but was rudely interrupted by Xander's growl."Stop it, Bruce," he charged in Bruce's direction, ready to strike. He did have some kind of anger issues that only popped up when it had to do with me. He became a hungry tiger."No, you—""No! All of you, just stop!" I shouted with my eyes closed. "I am not some property to be bought and taken home. I am not your slut! I have had enough of your rants." I said on a final note, walking out.They could have killed themselves in there and I couldn't have that. I had gotten their acts up to here and I was done. Xander didn't want me anymore but he wouldn't let Bruce either. Hardin would never stop and I let reality hit.At that point, I did what seemed right and best. I left. After calling Bernice's phone a million times over and receiving the a
My CEO's Baby Mama A Rivera
Mr. RiveraI paced the full length of the not so large barn, my freshly polished shoes crunching on the straw covered floor. I wrinkled my nose and flared my nostrils slightly at the stench of the environment which I wasn't used to.I stopped right in front of the young woman as I watched her fearful eyes follow my every move."I'm sure you are aware of the very reason why you are here," I said in a low and intimidating voice. I took a step closer, towering over her. I leaned over her chair, grabbing both sides and bringing my face level to hers. "You have been a thorn in my flesh for the longest time but Xander— oh that boy; he won't let me have access to you but you know what, he finally did," I said with a sense of authority, letting out a triumphant laugh into her face.She nodded weakly with her eyes pleading and it only infuriated me even more.I stood up and snapped at one of men. He brought out a stick of cigarette and lit it while it was in between my teeth, the loud clacki
My CEO's Baby Mama The Rescue
XanderI glanced at my cracked phone on the floor like it was the cause of my misfortune. I proceeded to break it off completely as I stomped on it with the hard sole of my shoes, grunting in frustration with every step.My father sure knew how to get to me and I was never going to play right into his stupid trap! I paced around my office again, running my fingers through my hair.It had been hours and nobody could tell me where Bella was, every lead was a dead, empty end. The news came on again— a young lady was abducted right in front of the Cuisine restaurant.Everyone had heard the story and watching it made me even angrier. I had made sure the restaurant was closed down until she was found!I ripped the television off the wall and flung it aside. I grabbed my keys from the table and stormed out of the office, making my way to the underground parking lot. "Get me a new phone," I instructed one of my men.I drove to the 'den'. It was a bar but not the kind that was visited by the
My CEO's Baby Mama Bamboozled
Xander"Argh!" A deep, resentful groan escaped my throat as I struggled to surpress my rage. He was one step ahead, but not for long. "When I see that man, I'll kill him!" I said through my tightly pressed teeth."Take a deep breath, Xander. We have to focus on saving Bella. The man is deadly. He could kill her first."I wiped my face with my palm in frustration as we proceeded outside the barn. "If he dares, he'll eat his own body parts for dinner until he gives up."I said it and I meant every word."We'll find her. The man can't hide forever," Luke said, placing his hand on my shoulder.My phone pinged again and this time, it was a call from a number with no caller ID. I stared at it for a moment before answering. I waited for the caller to speak first, not uttering a word."Hey, Xander. This is Beck. I heard about Bella. Meet me at the old factory close to the river. I have some information you might need," he said in a hushed tone."But how did you—?" I began but the line went d

My CEO's Baby Mama Mystery
Daniel Scarlet Vine loomed before us as we stepped out of the car, its neon sign pulsing in the night like a heartbeat. A club for the elite, it was said that a night with one of its infamous escorts could cost more than a middle-class man earned in six months. Courtney slipped her arm through mine as we approached the entrance, her touch light but possessive.“Please protect me from the men in there, Tom Cruise,” she teased, her voice laced with irony.I ignored her, keeping my eyes ahead. We navigated through the throngs of dancers on the floor. A tall man in dark glasses materialized without uttering a word. He nodded for us to follow, and we did, threading our way through the maze of bodies until he led us to a secluded game room.The room was empty, save for the remnants of someone else's night—a pool table with a triangle of balls still in place, a table tennis setup with the net discarded, and empty cups scattered across the surface, the aftermath of a game of beer pong. Anoth
My CEO's Baby Mama An Act
Daniel I pulled away the moment the car started moving, scrubbing my lips against my sleeve as if it mattered. The woman beside me, who I'd just kissed, was smiling widely, her eyes dancing with amusement."Don't even think about saying anything," I snapped, but I knew she wouldn't care."You really know how to put on a good show," she chuckled, her voice light, teasing."Oh, shut up.""Is that how you treat a woman you just kissed so passionately?" she mocked, her expression exaggerated, almost playful.I didn't respond. Instead, I turned to the window, watching the city blur by in streaks of neon and darkness. It was a Friday night, after all. People were pouring out of office buildings, heading to bars, clubs, wherever they could lose themselves for a few hours.But I couldn't stop thinking about what happened in the office. About that text from Bella.Bella had texted me earlier, asking me to come by. I wasn't planning to—there were more urgent things on my mind. The text above h
My CEO's Baby Mama Murder
Bella I spun around just as the door flew open, and the sight before me made my heart drop. There she was—Lilian—bound and gagged, struggling to speak but only managing muffled, frantic noises. A huge man with a buzzcut was dragging her inside, his muscles bulging as if they could snap her in half. He was trailed by a much smaller, wiry man, nervously shifting his weight from one bony arm to the other, his tank top a strange choice for someone so frail. “Here she is,” Buzzcut announced, tying Lilian to a chair with a roughness that made me wince. Xander slipped his phone back into his pocket, nodding in approval like this was the most normal thing in the world. “What’s... what’s the meaning of this?” I stammered, confusion and horror swirling inside me. “Why is she... Oh my God, is that her bone sticking out of her leg?” I gasped, the sight turning my stomach. “She’s the one who sabotaged my dad’s company,” Xander said, his tone cold. I shot him a glare. “You mean my compa
My CEO's Baby Mama Proof
Bella“What are you doing here?” My voice came out in a breathless whisper, shock rendering me immobile.Xander was in my apartment, perched on a chair as if he'd been waiting forever. His disheveled hair and bloodshot eyes told a story of their own. He was still wearing the shirt from earlier, now stained with sweat, as if he’d thrown it on in a rush after our... encounter. But if he was in such a hurry, why hadn't he followed me? Why was he here now, looking like someone I barely recognized?He didn’t answer. Instead, he toyed with a loose thread on his sleeve, eyes cast downward.“Answer me, Xander!” I demanded, my voice rising. I wasn’t in the mood for one of his games, but there was something off about him. Something... different.Finally, he spoke, his voice low. “As you were running after David, I asked you something. You never gave me an answer.”My shoulders relaxed, just a little. “His name is Daniel.”“And I don’t give a fuck what his name is,” Xander snapped, his voice sud
My CEO's Baby Mama An Endless Circle
Bella“You pushed me away like you always do, Xander. You make me feel like I’m someone to you, then trash me. I’m a woman and I have needs. I want surprise flowers and a new dress with a note that says, ‘Dinner at nine’. Daniel was there for me. It’s the least I can do.” I said all of that in one breath before dashing out. I made for Daniel’s house, speed walking without taking a single moment to see how Xander reacted. I kept scratching my hair like I had lice. The rain wasn't helping either. I was drenched but it didn’t matter. I didn’t know what I was going to say to him when I found him. I just wanted to look into his eyes and feel them.I didn’t have to walk too far. I stopped at the glass doors to the popular bar. I watched him take a huge gulp of his cheap beer before yelling at the bartender to get him three more. What had I done? I broke him.“Daniel, I didn’t know you drank,” I said in a low voice, standing a little away from where he sat at the bar counter. He didn’t look
My CEO's Baby Mama Daniel Or Xander
Bella“Ma’am?” Rita, Xander’s assistant, called out to me, and it looked like she had been watching me for a while but I was so lost in thought that I didn’t notice. “What are you doing here? You have someone here as well?”Thank goodness she gave me the sweetest lie ever. All I had to do was nod slowly in agreement. Nana was someone to me too so it wasn’t really a lie.I gave off a sigh of relief. I should have known Xander was never one to give away flowers to random women. I gave her a quick smile and turned to leave. I couldn’t face Nana after lying on her grave and I didn’t have any flowers to offer too.“You’re leaving?” Rita called out. She clearly wasn’t someone who knew how to mind the business that paid her and that was to drop off the flowers.“Yeah, I remembered that I left something really important at the office. I’ll need it tomorrow. You know how the boss gets.”I didn’t really forget anything at the office but I wanted space and I didn’t want to go home. Lately, the a
My CEO's Baby Mama A Broken Promise
Xander“Hi Xander,” the private investigator I had hired two days ago, said over the phone. “We have found the person who sabotaged your wife’s company. What should we do with her?”A woman, huh? I didn’t think it would be a woman. I pulled the phone away from my ears slowly. “Maybe Beth?” I thought, peering out the window. I thought it was Hardin for sure. I guess I judged too quickly.Whoever it was, I decided that I had to teach her a lesson. Just a small one to teach her and everyone else, to stay away from my woman. “You know what to do. Hand her over to my men and they’ll take it from there."I hung up the phone and dialed another number immediately. “They’ve found her. I want her alive but in a state that will please me. If she can still walk, you’re fired.”I was about to leave the office when Hardin pushed the door open and walked in. He appeared furious but I really didn’t care. “What?” I asked him, grabbing my keys off the desk. I had somewhere to be and I could sense that
My CEO's Baby Mama Working With Him Is A Hassle
Bella"You're late!" He roared when I got to the company three minutes after eight. "This is why your company's struggling. Work starts by eight. What are you teaching your employees?"What the..."It's only a few minutes after—""It doesn't matter. I see you grew lazy when you stopped working for Versa Link. I'll have to teach you discipline, again because I won't have you acting however you want in my company." His company? Isn't it our company? I ignored curious glances from everyone as I walked to the board room for the introductory meeting. I took my seat at the designated area and took a deep breath.I was about to open my laptop when the doors opened and he walked in. He was late by a minute. I squinted my eyes at him but I couldn't afford to let my emotions show so I fixed my face."Good morning everyone. You are all aware that Versa Link now has control over Rivera group. I look forward to working closely with you all."I noticed exaggerated giggles and smiles from some of th
My CEO's Baby Mama Terms And Conditions
Bella His name is Daniel! I shouted in my mind but that was the least of the current problems. “Unless of course there’s a reason why you can’t?” He continued, leaning towards me. What was he trying to get out of me? “He’s one of the best people on our team.” I really hoped that was going to cut it. “He’s hardworking and intelligent and—” “I have a head of operations myself and as you know, I don’t employ lazy or unintelligent people. Mine will serve excellently.” Damn it! “Unless there’s another reason why—” “I can’t, Xander. He has been loyal to the company. He stuck with us through the good and bad. I can’t just kick him out. That will be utterly unfair.” My palms were already sticky from the sweat I produced in the well ventilated room. This man drove me crazy. How do I tell Daniel that he's fired from the company? I hope Xander changes his mind and there’s some humanity in that broad chest. He stood up and buttoned his suit. “I have a meeting soon so make this quick.”
