“Are you out of your mind Serenity?" Gabe nearly yelled from the other end, causing me to subconsciously cover both my ears with my fingers for a few seconds.

Why was he overreacting so much? It wasn't weird that I'd developed feelings for Shawn. He genuinely seemed like a changed man.

He was still the same playboy from high school, but he was also super sweet to me.

Even when we were captured by Justin Xane, after he'd found out about my betrayal, he still risked his life to make sure I was safe. If that wasn't proof that he was a changed man, and truly wanted my forgiveness, I didn't know what was.

"I'm perfectly sane Gabe." I tried not to sound annoyed, realizing just then that I was nervously gripping the steering wheel tightly. "What I said is the truth. Yes, I know it wasn't part of the plan, but a lot has happened this past month and a half. Enough to make me change my mind about him."

I heard Gabe scoff. I understood that he was probably upset that I was letting Shawn 'get

    I finally got home.I tried my best to hide my tear-stained face, bursting the door to the living room wide open, startling Alice in the process."Oh, Snugglebug!" Alice held her chest, breathing out in relief. "I forgot to lock the door. You scared me!"I wish I could banter with Alice right now and forget all my worries, but she was able to read me too easily."Serenity?" For the first time in a long time, Alice called me by my name. I looked at her eyes, seeing the worry behind them. "Your eyes... have you been crying again?"I felt my body tremble, my body weight suddenly becoming too overwhelming. The tears poured out freely soon after, as I fell to the ground sobbing."Oh, Snugglebug!" Alice rushed to hug me, moving faster than one would expect from a heavily pregnant woman. "What happened? Is Shawn okay? Are your parents okay? Please, I hate seeing you like this, talk to me."I felt like I was suffocating as I struggled to breathe. I sniffled as I tried taking in quick deep bre

    Exactly five days after Shawn broke up with me, I decided to move to my home state. It was where Gran Gran resided, and was also where the firm I worked for was located. I just couldn't bear living so close to Shawn anymore. Alice had been heartbroken about my decision, but luckily her husband was back to be with her in these final weeks of her pregnancy. I promised to be there when she went into labor, and only then did she let me leave. Gabe on the other hand, seemed glad that I had moved in so close to him. He was also happy that me and Shawn were no longer together and told me it was for the best. . . I got back from work that evening, feeling exhausted. However, once I stepped into Gran Gran's house, the heavenly smell of her cooking washed away almost half of the stress I felt. "Oh, Serenity! You're back!" Grandma Carys turned to face, her wrinkled face brightening with a smile. "You're just in time. I made you my special chocolate chip cookies." I was already salivating

    SHAWN DONNELLY ~~ It had been days since he broke up with Serenity. Back at Gadget Inc., the board had attempted to vote him out as CEO because he compromised the company's secrets for a woman. However, he knew that it was merely a facade from his rivals within the board to bring him down, making it easier to take his seat. Fortunately, he had the support of some board members, and with their help, he was able to plead his case and retain his position as CEO. Now back at work, Shawn felt that something was missing. Serenity. . . It had been exactly five days since he broke up with Serenity. Shawn was in his office, lost in thought, reminiscing about the memories he shared with Serenity, both good and bad. He was the one who ended things, but now he regretted it. He thought it was the right decision, but not being able to see or hear from her was eating him up inside. Suddenly, there was a knock at his door, and Gina walked in, holding a few files. "These are the doc

    SERENITY {CALISTA} ~~ As Gabe's lips pressed against mine, I froze, unable to think of anything. It felt... comforting. His lips were warm and tasted of the apple pie we had just eaten. I didn't know when I kissed him back, closing my eyes as I felt the warmth running through me. But then, something hit me. It felt good, but it didn't feel... right. My eyes shot open as I shoved Gabe away from me. "Gabe, stop!" I was pissed, and rightfully so. Who would've thought that Gabe... Well, I guess Grandma Carys was right after all. Gabe got up, rubbing his lips like he hadn't kissed me just now. "Serenity, listen I'm sorry." I felt my heart pounding. I felt used! "So this is why you called me here? To warm your bed?" I spat, wishing I could smack Gabe on the head. "I've always had a thing for you, Serenity," Gabe suddenly confessed, reaching across the table to take my hand. "Even when you were with that jerk, I couldn't help but admire you from afar." My heart poun

    Shawn's gaze was fixed on mine, his eyes showing a spark of vulnerability that I hadn't seen before. "Serenity, please listen to me," he began, his voice low and surprisingly soothing. "I know I screwed up. I shouldn't have let our past get in the way of our present. When I said I love you, I meant it. And I want to make things right. I want to spend the rest of my life with you Serenity." Suddenly, he knelt on one knee, opening the small velvet box in his hand, revealing a beautiful diamond ring inside. "I know this might seem crazy. After everything I put you through, both in the past and present, it's crazy of me to still come back asking for your forgiveness. But if being termed 'crazy' means I get to spend the rest of my life with you, then I'm willing to be called that and more."The meeting hall felt suffocating at that moment. I looked around, thanking the heavens that the hall was empty. Even my boss was nowhere to be seen. We were alone. My palms began to sweat as Shawn

  • Reunited With The Bad Boy CEO   We Would Have Fun

    It was about five weeks since Shawn proposed to me. That day, there was a surprise party thrown at my office, with all my coworkers attending. A lot had happened within the span of those five weeks. Alice had finally delivered a healthy baby boy. She insisted I give him a name and even her husband agreed to it. Eventually, I named him 'Oliver', which means 'olive tree', since they represent peace and friendship and I've always felt like Alice was a safe space to go to during my troubles with Shawn. Also, I moved in with Shawn, and quit my job at the construction firm to plan our wedding perfectly. It was so exciting, and the intimacy and lovemaking felt even deeper now. Oh, yeah...we were getting married in three days! It felt kinda weird...I would've never imagined getting married to Shawn of all people a month ago. . . It was eight PM. Shawn took me to a five-star restaurant close to Gadget Inc. just to spend some time outside together. The restaurant was dimly lit, hav

He knew that look all too well."We should get some rest." He chuckled, looking away from her eyes awkwardly.However, just as he was about to make his way to the bed, Serenity pranced slowly towards him, like a lioness stalking its prey. "Hmm...but it's still so early." She uttered with a low voice, her hands delicately landing on his chest. He gulped and his eyes landed on her boobs. They were peeking out of the V-neckline of her dress, basically begging him to release them from their prison. He stayed silent as Serenity's palms traced down hi

He decided to make a quick visit just a few hours before the ceremony to ensure everything was in place.Shawn stepped down from his car, accompanied by Gina, who had a tablet for taking notes on her hands. Shawn's eyes wandered around, taking in the view of the church compound. He couldn't help marveling at its grandeur.The stone walls loomed high as if defying the ravages of time for centuries. Statues of saints and angels stood at the entrance, seemingly watching over those who entered the church grounds.

"So, Sir, the decora

Love, children of my own, peace of mind after everything that happened in the past...it was all a dream come true.After Ava, I had another child, a son who we named 'Donald', after Shawn's grandfather. We'd been living life together, exploring all the hurdles that came with being young parents. But yet, something still felt missing....On a warm spring morning, I ate some toast, skimming through my phone. Ava was in school, while Donald was sleeping soundly upstairs. Shawn had gone to work, leaving me, the unemployed housewife here.It's been two years and I still didn't know what career path to chase. I had been so comfortable all these while cause Shawn kept assuring me I didn't need to work, but I didn't want to work simply because I wanted to help with finances. I wanted to work for me. As I scrolled through my phone, an ad suddenly popped up, showing a video done by some kids to sprea

    Seven months after our honeymoon, it was finally time. The due date was here.I was currently in Shawn's room, his maids surrounding me and trying to get me to breathe. I bit my lips, struggling to hold in a scream that was going to come out any minute now.Just then, Shawn burst into the room, rushing to my side in an instant. "Doctor Ryan is close now. Hang on babe." Shawn parted my hair slightly, looking into my eyes as if trying to get me to stay. To not slip away.I shook my head repeatedly, trying to pull myself together. But then, I felt a sharp pain inside me, and I couldn't hold it in anymore."Ahhhhh!" I screamed, holding– or rather, squeezing– Shawn's arm for support. A maid came to face me, holding my hands gently."Ma'am, look at me. Look at me." She tried desperately to get my attention. When I finally managed to look at her, she took in a deep breath and then breathed out. "Take in deep breaths. And exhale." I nodded vigorously, before following her words. Breathe in,

    Warning: Mature content ahead!Shawn's eyes bulged, as he looked at my face and then at my belly, and finally at my face again. He covered his mouth, his eyes beaming with pure joy and excitement."You- you're pregnant?" He repeated, placing a palm on my belly. I nodded in reply, my face flushing from all the excitement. "It's almost around two months gone now. I went to do a test two days ago but wanted to surprise you." I admitted, my gaze diverting away from his eyes. I was afraid he would get mad at me for keeping it away, but his reaction completely took me off guard.He drew me in for a hug, making sounds that further showed his excitement. It was almost like he was squealing. "And surprised I am." He whispered into my ears. "But next time though, maybe keep me involved with the delivery, okay?"I ended up giggling, nodding in agreement. "It's a deal."We finally broke the hug, as I looked into Shawn's eyes again, seeing the love in them. He seemed like he'd gotten a few years

    After Gabe was arrested, Shawn and I decided to give it another month before we had another wedding. With that time, we were able to make the right preparations, as well as apologize to all our friends and family about the drama at the last wedding. It was necessary after the... traumatizing things they witnessed thanks to Sage. Speaking of Sage, she was paid off by Shawn, who also placed a warrant on her to never be within a hundred meters radius of either me or him. ..The wedding venue was nowhere else than our hometown...the place where it all began. It would be held on a beach, and this time, we'd decided to invite all our old high school classmates.At a hotel, which was about a twenty-minute drive away from the beach, I was getting ready for my wedding, with help from Brielle, Alice, and my whole bridal train. I was anxious, fidgeting constantly as Alice helped me with my make-up."Snugglebug, could you just relax for one second?" Alice groaned In mock annoyance when I move

    The next day, I and Shawn set out to find Gabe. Reaching his house, it was obvious that he'd escaped, probably after hearing Brielle's announcement on the radio.I low-key felt bad that our trio had lost a friend, but it was for the best. Gabe needed to be stopped and held accountable.With help from a hesitant Sage, we were eventually able to find Gabe at an airport, about to book a flight. But we'd brought some police officers along and were ready for him."Gabe!" I called his name when I spotted him trying to enter a queue. He turned to find me, and when our eyes eventually met, I felt my heart stop. This man, someone I'd seen as one of my only friends, had tried to ruin my life... all because he wanted to get me for himself.While I was lost in my thoughts, Shawn pointed at Gabe, recognizing his face from some pictures I showed him."That's him, officers." His tone seemed to carry a mix of amusement and irritation, giving off a chilly vibe. He definitely wanted to get back at Gab

    After minutes of hugging, I and Shawn finally let go of each other. His warm smile met my gaze, but I could see that his eyes were a bit swollen, likely from crying.I felt guilty seeing that, knowing I'd been willing to abandon him forever because I didn't trust him. But yet, he was still just glad to see me."Where did you even run off to?" Shawn finally asked, squinting his eyebrows in worry. But before I could begin explaining, he spoke again. "You know what? Never mind that. What matters now is that you're okay and you're here, in my arms."I smiled wryly, gripping his shoulders, subconsciously caressing them. I noticed that they'd gotten leaner, and I instantly knew why."Hey, how come you haven't been eating for a whole week? All because I was ignoring your calls?" I couldn't help but frown at the thought that he had starved himself because I was missing. Shawn chuckled awkwardly but tried to shift the subject. "So, you admit to ignoring my calls?" He pulled me closer, sniffi

    It has been exactly one week since the unexpected turn of events on what was supposed to be my wedding day. Everyone had been worried, but I wasn't in the mood to pick up any of their calls, only sending a few texts assuring Alice and my parents that I was okay. I felt awkward talking to Brielle now, especially after what Gabe tried to do a few days back. I didn't go to work, I rarely stepped outside except at night to get some basic needs... my daily routine had become a depressing bore of me spending long hours on the couch watching TV. My mind was slipping away, I could feel it. The feeling of hopelessness, the finding peace in solitude and isolation while also feeling like the world had turned its back on me. I felt alone.Today, I went through some of the stuff that I'd managed to smuggle out of Gran Gran's place. Most of it was stuff from my college days, but some was also stuff that reminded me of Shawn. Amongst those things, was a videotape, containing clips of special mo

    SERENITY FAIRCHILD {CALISTA}~~Everything had been going just fine. I had prepared in the mansion for my big day, with help from Brielle and my other bridesmaids. I'd driven to the church compound, entered the church, and received a reception like a princess, and then stood in front of my love, Shawn, waiting to become his wife.Until she showed up...Hearing this 'Sage's' allegations, I wanted to defend Shawn, I wanted to cling desperately to the hope that it was all a lie. But this bitch came prepared. "Oh, honey, I have proof," Sage had said with a sly smile on her face, pulling out her phone.At that point, my heart had begun pounding in my chest. Nothing could beat video evidence. When the painful clip of my so-called fiancee and Sage having sex played on the church's LED screen, I couldn't take it anymore.I ran off the altar, ignoring Shawn's pleading voice and the pitiful gazes from the congregation on me. I felt my breath cease and my heart felt like I was suffocating. Bef

    It all felt like a bad dream. Shawn watched as Sage got closer to the altar, a mocking look on her face. "So, this is Serenity Fairchild." She had her eyes on Serenity. "Or, should I say 'Calista Whitaker '?"Shawn clenched his fists, trying to quell the anger boiling inside him. He looked at Serenity, watching her eyebrows contort into a frown. She turned her gaze to him now, "Shawn, who's this?" Shawn felt his mouth quivering, as he struggled to come up with a perfect way to explain all this. However, Sage beat him to it."I must say, after spending that night with me, I was quite surprised that you didn't try to reach out." Sage feigned a dejected look. The woman deserved an Oscar.Shawn glanced to see Serenity's reaction and watched as her face turned pale. But then, she took in a deep breath, as she faced Sage with renewed confidence.“Excuse me, but who are you? And what do you mean you 'spent a night with Shawn'?” Her voice was oddly calm and calculative, but laced with an u
