I walk down the hallway and try to shake off the icky feeling that clings to my skin from meeting Skye.I can’t believe i ever thought the reason Malachi wanted her was because maybe despite all odds, she was just genuinely a good person. Someone better than i am.Skye is nothing but a snake and a b
A question slips out of my lips before i can stop myself, “Are you sure you want to leave with me after this?”Ever since he suggested it, the questions have been brewing at the back of my mind.Disappearing after my fashion show is one thing. I might be the talk of many shows right now, but i’m sti
I almost run as i make my way towards the general hall. Tieran is fast on my heels and i can see the slight confusion in his eyes - i can see the immediate recognition at the sight of that baby.What in hell’s name are they even doing here?I get down and my heart drops into my stomach. She’s making
Why didn’t i see something like this happening?”Watch your step.”Malachi’s voice pulls me out of my thoughts again and i feel a shudder course through my spine. This fashion show - the runway - everything is being broadcasted which means if Grandfather was paying any attention, he must have seen w
Antonia’s pov. My boss and husband Malachi Finn chats excitedly with his first love in the office. I stand outside, and through the glass door, I can see a warm smile on his face. It’s a smile I've never seen before. I know the right thing to do as a competent secretary would be to leave, but as h
Anguish and pain rip through my already raw heart, and for a while all I can do is look at him. I stare at the annoyance on his face and the rage gathering in his eyes. I look away as tears well in mine and I stare at the floor as I blink them back, asking with a steady but tired voice, a voice th
The funeral draws something out of me. From the fact that no one in the Finn household seemed to care that my grandmother had died, down to Malachi’s nonchalance about her death and his sustained anger at what happened with Skye. My heart throbs and aches while I have to carry out the preparations
Malachi’s pov. “I’ve filed for a divorce.” I storm into the office and thoughts of Antonia saying she’s filed for a divorce flash through my mind. I grunt in anger as I drop my phone and settle into my chair. Antonia… Antonia would never behave like this. I understand she’s angry at her grand

The floor shifts and rolls. The very image of fluffy clouds and radiant light.I can see people discussing, talking. Armed with cameras, all of them.Tonigt is going to be a defining night.”Well if it isn’t the talk of the town.”I turn immediately to see a female walking towards me.It’s been a lo
Bridget jacks me away the moment she catches the sight of me. She downright ignores Malachi and glares at him when he tries to follow us. He glares right back but relents and walks off, but not before he directs a look my way.Not before he stares at me long and hard and so well i know he’s doing it
Malachi pulls back almost immediately, and as his eyes turn to me i see something shift in his expression.He smiles. The act is rare enough that i’m stunned but the look it gives him also lights up his face quite well. Malachi’s vopice is tinged with some humor as he responds, “I wouldn’t resort t
Antonia's pov.The sky is rippling with stars and i begin to fidget in the car as we drive out to the Starlight hall.I’m dressed in a simple gown.Long flowing silk is sewn in with some of the moon’s tears fabric, and embossed with a subtle but ripping waterfall of diamonds and jewels. As estravaga
I have something important to do here. I’m not leaving it and going off to have sex with him, especially not on a day like today. It’s too important.”Is there ever a day you’ll put yourself first?”The question makes a line of static ring in my brain for a while but before i can respond Ian goes o
