“You can't go in there Sir, he is busy” I heard my secretary protest outside my office and I knew for a fact that I wasn't expecting anyone. I also told her not to let anyone in.

Why the door slammed open, Vincent stood glaring at me.

“I am sorry sir, I tried to stop him” My secretary, a tall blonde woman with a pretty face apologized, she didn't look sorry at all. She looked angry and annoyed. he must have stressed her. That's usually my reaction to people interrupting my work.

“That's okay Vanessa, leave us”

She nodded patiently before leaving but not without giving me an apologetic glance as well,

Once the door closed behind her I raised an eyebrow. “What are you doing here Vincent,” I asked him.

He ignored my question.

And I focused on the screen of my computer. If he wasn't going to say anything, he could just stand there and glare at me. I'd rather that than the alternative. I couldn't be bothered with that right now anyway. My mind was too preoccupied with another matte

    RhysI kept pacing back and forth in the hallway of the hospital. Grandfather had been in there for too long.Vicent had an eye that was now purple and I could taste blood on the side of my lips but that was nothing compared to what Grandfather's fate was currently sporting. “What did you do my husband? What did you do?” Cory came running towards me as soon as she saw me. But Vincent held her back but that didn't stop her from yelling even at me, despite the stares she was getting, she kept shouting.“You asshole! You are insane you stupid fuck! What did you do?” Her fists were balled and all I could do was stare at her. I was never one to fight with a woman. “You are bad luck, haven't you noticed how everything you touch ends in ruins? You are a greedy asshole” She continued yelling and the anger in me kept growing unapologetically. What did she know about being greedy? I was a lot of things but greedy wasn't one of them.Somehow she managed to slip through Vincent’s grip and charge

    RhysThe first time I was called a bastard was when I was five. I didn't know what it meant but I had one of the kids say it to me and I thought it was funny. I laughed a lot. I used to love to laugh so much. I used to have lots of friends. I used to love playing with them. When I turned seven, the kids in the neighbourhood had begun to avoid me, and when I asked me, he told me his mom said I was a “bastard”. It was the first time I realized that bastard wasn't a good word.I had gone home that day to ask my mom what it meant and she just shrugged. “I don't know honey. That's how they talk now, you can’t change it.” She always tried to be comforting because I was her baby boy. But I knew after that day and I began to ask her for my father. One day I came back crying and she knew it had gotten out of hand and the next day we were driving to the next town with bigger buildings.“I don't know her or the child she is with, she's a liar!” The man who I later found out to be my Father yell

    DarcyRhys was not home and I couldn't exactly tell what the update was with his grandfather.He had been acting very off and I could recognize the smell of guilt that oozed from him. I didn't care, he wasn't exactly my problem, and the little time I tried to be empathetic, he acted as though I were the problem. My presence was annoying, it just didn't fit in here with his so I let him be.I stared at myself in the mirror and even though everyone thought of how perfect my face was, I could still see traces of my old self. Not all things change, but some do. Like the way I could feel pain somewhere inside me every time I looked into those big eyes, I could see myself staring back at them. My real self, the old one everyone hated.I went for a run because I needed one to come up with the next plan. The whole thing with Jude Madigan had slowed down what was supposed to happen next. On my way back from running, it was around evening around 7 pm and as I ran through the street of estate

    Darcy“Be ready before I get back”“Why are we going out just to eat?” Since the previous incident, I was really sure that something was off. I needed to figure out what it was.“Public appearances, Tessa. We need to keep up with that and make it look real”, he explained in the most convincing voice I've ever heard. “Okay... so where is this place again?” “It's a fancy restaurant I went to a few weeks ago, you'll like it”, he smirked slightly.I nodded.When it was time, I took out a navy blue dress I had never worn even though Rhys had already gotten me a dress, I wanted to feel comfortable in what I owned instead of the other way around.It had long sleeves and hugged my body perfectly, I then paired it with nude color heels, which were perfect for walking. I put some earrings in and left my hair down, it always suited my style. Then, I headed out of the door.Rhys stared at me when I walked towards him and I thought something was wrong. He nodded at me and opened the car door for m

    RhysShe was a strange woman and I noticed how often she would avert her gaze and how careful she was being. It felt as though the woman in front of me had two personalities fighting to be the one who spoke first because every once in a while they would fight for dominance over each other.I still could not tell how she managed to convince me, maybe it was because I wanted to win Vincent so bad, I wanted to prove to him like one of those numerous times that he was no match for me.I watched the blush spread against her cheeks and how she struggled to hide it with her hair. She looked beautiful, like a porcelain doll, delicate and pale but there was something about her that gave her an unsettling aura. I wondered why she seemed so familiar to me. When she finally looked up, there was a sudden urge to tug the hair that covered each side of her face behind her cheeks and I felt disgusted at myself when my hands clenched into tight fists and the desire to do just that burned inside of me.

    Darcy As I hurried into the restroom, my grip on my phone was even tighter as my heart raced.Truly I was not delusional, someone was stalking me and it had to be whoever was wearing that hoodie.The unknown number had texted me a picture of where I was seated at the restaurant that day, but not a name. A text followed, “I see you”.The message freaked me out, for who knew when they would show up? If they were here at this place right now, I didn’t have much time left in front of me, I didn't know what would happen next.As I made it to the restroom, I splashed water against my face, taking deep breaths to steady my nerves before running my hands through my hair. I was grateful that I had not worn any makeup.Somewhere from the corner, I heard a sound that sounded like a slight clutter, and I froze as a chill traveled down my spine. I looked around trying to trace the noise’s origin. As I turned my head toward another direction, however, I heard the same faint noise again, so I slowly

    RhysThere was no sign of any form figure wearing a hoodie on the CCTV footage, not even a single glimpse. It was like whoever the person was, he hadn't been there in the first place. Which is pretty much impossible with what I had just witnessed.“What incompetence is this?”I muttered under my breath as the video continued to run. “We are sorry sir” the manager replied, sounding more like he wanted to be doing something else than apologizing to me for whatever it was. “Sorry? Your incompetence got my wife harassed. What if I had not stepped in when I did? How would that have looked? If you are truly sorry, show it!” I yelled at him. “This has got to stop!”I said, shaking my head in annoyance as the video ended. “Find me a CCTV footage that has that figure in or you'll know why you shouldn't mess with a Madigan!” At the mention of my surname, the manager froze. “And one that's clear and has good coverage of the entire event. Otherwise, consider your position gone” I told him before

    DarcyHe was lying, he didn't hear me say anything! Nothing.Where did he get that from? It made me so angry that he had said those words, even if the truth, my truth was still with me, I still thought he had a little clue of what was going on.We didn't speak to each other after that day and I tried not to make him aware that I was always near him whenever we saw each other. If he was in his room we now shared, I’d be in the living room.As it was, all of our interactions were limited to small conversations or the occasional greeting when we met outside.I was tired of being in the living room and I just needed the comfort of a bed. I thought he was in his study room so I barged into the room without thinking or knocking.And there he was, skin glistening wet, a towel was wrapped around his waist but a little bit lower than what you should usually see. I don't know why. His back was turned to me and I should have gone back, but I stared at him like a hormonal teenage girl.When he tu

    Darcy My throat suddenly felt dry as I stared at this stranger hoping that maybe I didn’t hear him properly. I expected him to take back what he said but he didn't and he continued to stare at me.“Uhmm… my husband?”“Yes, your husband. What's your name?” He continued, unperturbed by my unwavering stare.“Dar…Tessa” I answered as meekly as I could, still not used to the fact that I was being questioned by a stranger.“Do you remember what happened last night?”Again my mind immediately jumped and I bit back the instinctive response, knowing it would just make this man more suspicious of me. I took a deep breath before answering him “I don't remember much…”“You don't?” His grey eyes bore into mine as if trying to dig through my skull to find whatever memory he was looking for. It was unsettling how he seemed almost fascinated with me, even though I had no idea what he wanted to know. I didn't think I should tell him anything about myself because his reaction to the name was too odd f

    Darcy The next morning, I moved after two days. I couldn’t stay there, not after the strange incident that had happened the first night I was there repeated itself.Claire called me several times but I didn't answer, I wanted him to call me.If I could just see one missed call from him, I would turn and go back to him but I didn't receive anything so I turned off my phone.I didn't know where to go next. Maybe I could go back home, but I left that house, my mother’s presence had somehow still managed to linger and it held a lot of bad memories.Soon it was nighttime and I was still roaming with a traveling box.I had decided that I was going to get a different room in another hotel when a car drove towards me, it was speeding off and I was too slow , the car's brake pads screeched and shock overpowered me . I hit the ground and rolled a few times before hitting the concrete. My back hit hard against the ground and pain flared all over. I groaned at the pain and tried to open my eyes

    RhysI stared at Claire as if she had just spoken a foreign language. The migraine and dizziness I had been feeling all week were starting to become overwhelming. I had never experienced anything like it before.“Why did you let her leave?” I yelled at the older woman in front of me. She looked scared and was trembling uncontrollably. It took her several moments to calm down enough to explain herself to my bewildered eyes and slightly throbbing temples. “She said her mom was sick Sir, I had seen her with a big bag but I didn't think she was leaving …”“She wasn't leaving, she left for good,” I muttered through gritted teeth, trying not to lose my balance.Everything felt strange, there was a loud ringing in my head and a stabbing pain in my forehead every time I moved too fast. I tried to focus on my breathing, which was becoming erratic. This was a completely new experience for me. There was no way this could be happening to me because of someone who I had just met.I could hear Clai

    Vincent You see, the best thing one could be in this life is to be rich. If you’re rich enough, you can have anything you want, you can go where and when you want without having to ask permission or ask for money—you don’t need to worry about anyone telling you no. But not everyone has that luxury. Some people live by their own rules and follow only their own codes and morals.After the bathroom incident, at the hospital, Cory and I found someone who would take care of it for us, one of the male nurses and it was barely 24 hours. We didn't search for long.You see what I said about money? Everyone wanted it and we had people who were more desperate than the others, people who would willingly do anything if they thought it would get them what they wanted. And this male nurse was among them.I had paid him of the money we agreed on, I was going to pay the other half when he completed the job.The next evening, I waited for the good news from our “partner.” A little after seven I ca

    Rhys Her bed was neatly made. The pillows were perfectly arranged on their respective corners, the sheets were smooth and her closet wasn’t empty except for a few spaces. There was nothing to indicate that any one of her possessions had been missing but I didn’t feel alright.I closed the door slowly and leaned against it. My chest was tightening with every breath. It wasn't the fear from seeing her room empty but something darker and colder. A chill ran down my spine. I shivered and wrapped my arms around myself, hugging myself tightly. I took a couple steps closer to the bed. I needed to breathe, just breathe.Tessa was probably just in the garden or in the kitchen with Claire but none of it helped with the way I was feeling.It was as if I was going to pass out. Why?I began to move towards the kitchen, the maids froze when they saw me.“Where is Tessa?” I said in a sharp voice. They all stood silent. Their faces were grim and fearful. “Where is she!” I demanded, taking another t

    RhysI returned to my room after leaving Tessa’s room. She had seen the newspaper, she had called me a murderer, she had gone through my stuff. How dare she? Rage led me out of the house. The last thing I wanted to do was something we would both regret.“Hello, Rhys…” That familiar voice that I had almost forgotten said from the end of the phone. It made me freeze but quickly recovered.Why was he here?“What do you want?” I asked, trying to sound indifferent, even though I was on edge. “Is that how to say hello to an old friend?” his voice reeked of fake sincerity and I felt a shiver run down my spine. “I thought we were friends now after all these years?”I didn’t reply and then added in a cold tone: “If you wanted anything you could have just told me.”He sighed, “Of course, of course...” and then laughed lightly. “Well I guess you don't have much time today anyway, so I'll get straight to the point. I called to congratulate you”I knew him too well, I was familiar with the sick g

    Darcy“Are you going somewhere?” Claire got up immediately I came downstairs holding my box.Her eyes moved between me and the box I was holding several times, I could see the questions running in her mind as well. She finally asked, “What’s all that?” when I gave no answer at first.“My mother…she is ill, she wants me to come home” I lied without meeting her gaze. I was ashamed of it, but I didn’t know what else to do at the moment. “But that's a lot, do you want me to rearrange them in a smaller bag for you?” Claire asked still looking at me with those eyes full of concern. I could tell how she wanted so badly to help me. But she was too kind to make assumptions about this situation without any evidence and she had no way to be sure whether or not the information I just shared was true. I stared at the smallish woman in front of me, I had grown fond of her.“No Claire, that wouldn't be necessary” By now my eyes were threatening to tear up so I forced myself to look up again. I swa

    Darcy“What is this?” Rhys's face was as stoic as ever, but a slight tremor in his fingers betrayed his nervousness. I was in deep shit.“Why are you going through my stuff?” I asked instead even though I was trembling terribly inside and had not yet taken the first breath. He'd been at it forever.He stared at me, looking like he might explode any moment. “I don't see why that should be a surprise to you, considering that you enjoy snooping around in my belongings! You've been prying into them since we got here! Now tell me what's going on in your little head! What do you want?”I tried to open my mouth but nothing came out so all I could do was gape uselessly. It made no sense, this whole situation. He'd never spoken to me with such vitriol before. This was different.“You can't say? Exactly what I thought”He said dismissingly and began to walk away clutching the paper tightly.I reached my hand out to touch him, but stopped myself because I didn't know if it would be received wel

    DarcyHe was there, on the other side of the street, staring straight at me, and if I hadn't known better I might have thought he was going to walk over to say hello. Then that truck drove past us in the middle of nowhere and he was gone. A gust of wind blew his way and I shivered, even though it wasn’t particularly chilly out. It felt as if I was standing on a precipice looking down at a bottomless pit, and no amount of willpower or will could keep me from falling off. There was nothing here for me except my own thoughts and memories. He had been there, and now he wasn’t, and it had all happened before I could even get started. The sound of the front door opening brought me back to earth. “Tessa! Are you ready yet?” Claire’s voice echoed around me but only made it worse somehow because I knew exactly what kind of energy she had to bring with her into a room like this. She came into view, her arms filled with plastic bags, and looked up at me expectantly. When she saw me standin
