After what felt like an eternity, Alex finally reached the hotel where he was staying. The moment he stepped into the presidential suite, he locked the door behind him and made a beeline for the bar. Without hesitation, he grabbed a glass and poured himself a generous amount of whiskey. Still standing, he took a few quick sips, the burn of the alcohol doing little to calm the storm raging inside him.

He pulled out his phone and scrolled through his recent calls, stopping at his best friend Greg’s number. He hit the dial and put the phone on speaker, setting it down on the counter.

Greg answered almost immediately. “I was just thinking about you,” he said, his tone light but curious.

“Why?” Alex asked, his voice low and tense.

“Because I haven’t heard from you as soon as I expected. Please don’t tell me you’ve done something insane.”

Alex hesitated, then muttered, “Thank you.”

Greg groaned. “You’ve messed up, haven’t you?”

Silence.

“Christ, Alex! After all the warnings I gave you!”

    "You won’t believe what happened!" Gennie exclaimed, her voice a mix of frustration and disbelief.Lara raised an eyebrow, leaning forward. "What now? And what did Jamie say?""He was furious. I told him it’s over and I want nothing to do with him," Gennie replied, crossing her arms. "And before you start defending him, you know how much I hate office drama. I’m done with all of it."Lara sighed. "That’s so sad. I was really rooting for you two. He must be crushed."Gennie shrugged. "That’s not all. I also had a talk with Alex. I’m sure Darlington already told you about it.""Yes, he mentioned it. I’m so sorry, Gennie.""Don’t be. It’s fine. Love just isn’t for me," Gennie said, her tone resigned."Don’t say that," Lara protested. "I don’t want you to give up. I don’t know how, but I know you’ll get your happily ever after."Gennie chuckled. "You need to cut back on those romantic movies. I’m good, really. As long as I have Jasper, I’m fine."Lara hesitated, then asked, "So, what’s th

  • My Ex-Fiancé's Regret    I’m so sorry.

    The room was quiet, save for the soft rustle of fabric and the faint sound of breathing. Alex’s eyes locked onto Gennie’s, his gaze intense, unwavering. He could feel the tension between them, thick and unspoken, like a storm waiting to break. She was trying to pull away, her hands pressing against his chest, but he wasn’t having it. Not tonight. Not after everything.He leaned in, his lips brushing against hers in a way that was both gentle and demanding. Gennie’s resistance faltered for a moment, and that was all the opening he needed. His hand slid up to cradle the back of her head, his fingers tangling in her hair as he deepened the kiss. She tasted sweet, like the wine they’d shared earlier, and he couldn’t get enough.For a moment, she stiffened, her body tense beneath his. But then, something shifted. Her hands, which had been pushing him away, now gripped his shoulders, pulling him closer. A soft sound escaped her lips, something between a sigh and a moan, and Alex felt a surg

  • My Ex-Fiancé's Regret   Does it sound like a joke to you?

    Genevieve’s breath came in sharp bursts as she gripped the bathroom counter, her damp skin still tingling from the heated moment they had just shared. The air was thick with tension, his presence behind her like a shadow she couldn’t escape.“Look, Gennie…”“Don’t touch me!” she snapped, spinning around before he could even lift a finger. Her glare, burning with anger, locked onto his eyes, making him shift uncomfortably.Alex exhaled, raking a frustrated hand through his hair. “Fine. I won’t, but please, calm down. I hate seeing you like this.”A bitter laugh escaped her lips. “Oh, do you?” she mocked, folding her arms. “You hate seeing me like this? That’s funny coming from the man who tossed me aside like garbage in front of his entire staff. I begged for an explanation, some kind of mercy, but you…” Her voice cracked, but she quickly steadied herself. “…You treated me like I was nothing. And now you stand here, acting like you care? Spare me the hypocrisy.”His jaw tightened, but

    Alex felt the weight of Victoria’s words hit him like a punch to the chest. It was not just what she said, it was how she said it. Cold, sharp, and without hesitation. But what hurt him the most was the look in her eyes. Pure hatred."You are being unreasonable," he said under his breath, swallowing the lump in his throat.Victoria folded her arms. "How? You said you wanted my forgiveness, and I gave it to you.""Only so you could throw me out.""Exactly." Her voice was steady, firm. "I do not want you here, Alex. Do not make me repeat myself."Alex clenched his fists. "This is the problem with people like you. You think you can just throw someone away when you are done with them. Like they never mattered.""You did this to yourself," she snapped. "You are the one still stuck in the past, acting like I belong to you. I do not. I never will."Alex let out a bitter laugh. "What more do you want from me?"Victoria’s glare did not waver. "I want you gone.""I have apologized. I have admit

    “Look!” She finally pulled her hand free from his grasp, relieved that he let go this time.“What happened earlier was a mistake. Do not overthink it because it meant nothing to me. I have had better moments than that, and if I have been lost in thought, I promise you, it is not because of you.”“You know I am not going to believe that, do you not?”“You never believe anything I say, so why should I be bothered?”“I am glad you made that clear. We both know you have not been with another man for a long time. And before you get angry, do not think I am saying this to insult you. The thought of it gives me the strength to keep fighting for you, and I am not going to stop.”“Do not ever claim that what happened between us was a mistake because I will prove you wrong if you do.”“How?” she challenged, folding her arms and watching him closely.Alex chuckled, his lips curling into a knowing smile. “I miss this. I miss the way you challenge me. It has been too long since someone put me in m

  • My Ex-Fiancé's Regret   What do you mean?

    Alex Woods clenched his jaw as he pulled out his phone, his grip tightening around the device when he saw the name flashing across the screen. "Jami." A slow burn of frustration settled in his chest. He did not need anyone to tell him who it was. He already knew.For a split second, he considered rejecting the call or smashing the phone against the nearest surface, but the nagging thought at the back of his mind stopped him. His son. He had to know where he was. That mattered more than his anger, more than his pride.Genevieve’s voice cut through his thoughts. "Give me my phone." She was calm, too calm. And he hated it.Alex turned to her, his dark eyes filled with an unspoken challenge. "You told me Jasper is not with him, so why is this bastard calling you?" He held the phone up, ensuring she saw the name on the screen.She sighed, reaching out. "Give it back."Instead of handing it over, Alex swiped to answer. He was not in the mood for her games. He needed answers. Now."Hey, babe

    Alex’s gaze flicked to Genevieve. Her plate was empty, and she sipped her drink with an air of indifference, as if nothing unusual had just taken place."Give me my phone," she said, placing the glass back on the tray."Why was Jamie calling you?""Why ask me? You were the one who answered," she replied coolly.His fingers tightened around the phone. "When will you stop treating me like this?""When you stop forcing yourself into my life.""That is not going to happen. You should start accepting that."She exhaled sharply. "Stay away from Jamie. Block him and never speak to him again.""He is my colleague.""Then keep your distance.""I will talk to someone about hiring more staff so you will not have to work closely with him."Genevieve let out a dry laugh. "That would be a waste of effort because if I want to see him, I will. If I want to sleep with him, I will. Your opinion does not control my life. I am not a child."Alex dragged a hand down his face, his shoulders sagging. He lea

  • My Ex-Fiancé's Regret   You were so tight

    Genevieve leaned back on the couch, her lips parting slightly as Alex’s fingers brushed her arm. Her mind slipped into a memory, hot, bold, and impossible to forget.She had been making coffee that day, humming softly, when Alex came up behind her. His hands had found her waist before moving up, teasing her in a way that made her knees weak. The kitchen had never felt that dangerous… or that exciting. With every touch, the thrill of someone possibly walking in only made her crave him more. Their bodies had moved quickly, his pants down, her dress pushed up, until the sound of footsteps ended it too soon.Genevieve blinked, pulled back to the present as Alex’s lips trailed along the curve of her ear. A soft gasp escaped her when he kissed the sensitive spot below it.“You remember that day, do you not?” she asked, her eyes still shut, her head tilting slightly to the side as if offering him more of her skin.Alex’s voice was close. “I remember everything.

    She did not plan for this. But the moment Alex dropped to his knees and buried his face between her thighs, everything else faded. Her hands clutched the edge of the kitchen counter, hips rolling on their own as his mouth drove her wild. The grip of his tongue against her body made her legs weak. A deep, aching need took over, and she could not help the way she pressed herself closer to his face.Alex knew exactly what he was doing. And he knew the moment she was close, he stopped. Before she could complain, he stood, his lips slick with her taste. His hands found her waist, and with one slow, teasing thrust, he filled her. She gasped, holding onto him tightly as he began to move inside her, slow and deep, like he wanted to feel every inch of her.“You like that?” he asked, breathing heavily against her neck.She let out a shaky breath, her fingers digging into his back.“Missed me?”No answer.He slowed down, almost pulling out.“Say it,” he demanded.She let out a soft cry. “Alex…”
