The days following our visit to his granny,he became more busy. I didn't get to see him anymore,he is always with Zia, and I am busy with sorting out the dresses for the models and taking care of the kids.Lilac has been a good help to me.But today is the day we've all been waiting for, Paris fashion week begun on Monday and Mr. Ruine schedule his own for the last day, Sunday.And now here I am, feeling overwhelmed at the feeling of experiencing my first ever fashion show.There alot of designers and celebrities around. I see Anna Wintour through the slightly open curtains.Now I am staring at Mr. Ruine smiling and laughing with Kendall Jenner, Kia, Barbara Sprouse, Gigi and Bella Hadid.I never knew he could laugh like that. A ghost smile touches my lips."Casma! Why are you standing there doing nothing!Attend to the models"Zia yells from beside me snapping me out of my gaze.Now all eyes are on me, feeling embarrassed,I walk to a model who is having a struggle with her dress."Is a
We are now on our flight back home. Ty and Rhynara are sleeping in the bed,Lilac has been on her laptop doing God knows what for hours,Clark is dozing off and Mr. Ruine and Zia are having their small moment.Having small talks and she giggling like a teenager and giving each other small kisses and pecks.Me? I am just there sitting in the chair, listening to music and my eyes occasionally moving towards them.I don't know what is wrong with me but I shouldn't be feeling what I am feeling right now.Jealousy and Greed,two deadly feelings which shouldn't be here.I don't have any sought of feelings towards Mr. Ruine and he doesn't even see me because I am not his type of woman. I am not sophisticated or classy and I am plain and simple.I may be finally over Rhys but I don't think I want to move on with another man.They are all the same, cheating and lying bastards.My eyes move towards the couple again and this time they are now in a full blown make out session.I sigh and close my ey
"I am sorry I can't make it today. The rouges have been spotted around the pack borders lately and I need to be on duty"~RhysI groan when I see the text. I can't believe he bailed on like that. I am not doing well today, no, I am really sick. It might be a fever or the flu because my stomach hurts and I feel like I am dying.Today is Friday and kids are on vacation and it is Rhys' time to have them for two weeks. I haven't been to work for three days now because of this sickness.I need to check into the hospital but who will take care of the kids, my cousin Gia is out of the country for a whole month.I need someone to drive Ty to and back from his training sessions.I need to text Lilac, she is back in town and pray she comes to my aid because I need to go to the hospital like now.With shaky hands and drowsy eyes, I pick up my phone again and search for her name and text her."Hey Li, hope you are fine. I really need a huge favor from you. Can you please come watch my kids while
In the midst of everything that unfolded, I found myself in a whirlwind of emotions that I couldn't quite grasp.As I watched Ruin seamlessly slip into the roles of caregiver and nurturer, something shifted within me. The admiration I held for him begins to transform into a deeper sentiment, a feeling that tiptoed on the edges of my awareness, hinting at a connection that surpassed our professional ties.In a moment of introspection, I acknowledged the stirrings in my heart, recognizing the kindness and empathy that emanated from Ruin's every gesture. The way he engaged with my children, the tenderness he showed towards me, and the genuine concern that reflected in his eyes all contributed to unraveling the tapestry of my emotions.As I grappled with this newfound realization, I navigated uncharted waters where admiration bloomed into something more intricate and profound. The boundaries between gratitude, friendship, and affection blurred, painting a portrait of emotions that gently

A moment of silence later, the door opens to reveal him, looking so tall as ever, his alpha genes being prominent.He looks so collected and calm at the same time dishelved."Casma, what are you doing here? In fact I am so glad you are here, come inside"he says stepping aside so I can enter.I walk in and turn to face him,"Actually I wanted to say thanks for Saturday, I didn't know what I would do without your help"I say softly."Like I said, I would do it over and over again, if it means keeping you healthy"he says and I blush."I have a very important and exciting message for you Casma"he says and takes out a brown envelope from his desk and hands it over to me." I just got this from one of my investors and they want to do a collaboration with Chanel for this winter and spring collection.He actually loved the wedding grown and after party dress you designed for Lilac and he wants to meet you for a coffee to discuss some partnership"he says and I look at dumbfounded.No way!

"Mr. Ruine please slow down, you are going to get us killed" I tell him calmly,I felt a surge of fear as Ruine's anger took over behind the wheel. The car raced over the speed limit, each moment feeling more dangerous than the last.My heart pounded in her chest as I realized the gravity of the situation - my life and Ruine's were in jeopardy due to his uncontrollable rage.He is clutching on the steering wheel so hard that his knuckles are turning white."Ruine! Fucking calm down!" I yell grabbing onto his thighs once he passes the traffic light almost running a cat over.The screeching tires and the blurred scenery outside the window painted a picture of imminent danger, leaving me to grapple with the realization that sometimes anger can lead to irreversible consequences.He finally stops and there is moment of silence in the car. My heart pounding like crazy.What just happened?I turn to face him but I couldn't get anything out of my mouth before he did the unthinkable.Ruine's
have been hiding and avoiding Mr.Ruine ever since the kiss happened a few days ago.My mind keeps on replaying the kiss,and each time I close my eyes I can feel his minty breath on face and his soft lips on mine.I have never felt this way about a kiss before, even with Rhys, who was my mate. This is so new to me, I get butterflies in my stomach each time I think about the kiss.But today out of all days I can't avoid him because I have to show him and Zia some of my lastest designs and know their critique.I adjust my file against my chest and knock on Zia's door, I open it to reveal people putting things into boxes and she herself putting the things on her table into a box."Good morning.... What--what is happening here?" I ask in confusionZia turns to face me, now noticing my presence, her face morphs into an evil look and she gives me the dirtiest glare,"Don't pretend as if you didn't know. I know you happy now, you get to have Ruine all to yourself." she says walking up to me.
