Rhys

I felt the pause in my system, "What is that sound?” I asked myself while standing and still wondering where the sound came from.

Having stood for some time gazing where the sound came from, I decided to let it go and proceeded to Tessa’s room, probably finding out later when I’m sure she’s in the house.

I stood at the door for quite a long period of time, still battling with my head if it was right to meet her or just let her be, ‘She disrespected me right? yeah so she definitely needs to apologize to me, imagine messing around with my enemy, I just can’t imagine what that monster must have filled her head with?’.

I got totally discouraged and was about to turn around and start going back to my room, when a voice screamed to me, "Rhys you're such a coward!" With anger in me, I just can’t leave my room to this place only to hear such a God forsaken voice, "No way!" I screamed out loud, held the door handle and forcefully opened the door even without knocking, "Knock? no way I hav

    RhysTessa stood right there looking at me with confusion written all over her face, I felt I was rather too forward, maybe I shouldn’t have said that yet I thought to myself regretting every step I had taken already. Maybe I could just return to my room with the same nonchalant attitude and I could leave her guessing, right?"Rhys?" She finally called out my name after a while staring at me in confusion, " What? Do you want to deny that too?" I quickly asked. There was no need to go back. I could deal with it once and for all."Deny what exactly Rhys, wait are you accusing me of having an affair with Bruce?" She asked quietly, I could sense amusement and disappointment in her tone, but It was too late. I couldn't undo it. All I needed at that point was answers, I wanted to be sure I hadn’t been a fool all the while. What if this was all a silly game and she was sent to set me up?" Yes Tessa you heard me right, is there something you want me to know?".She quietly moved close to her b

    DarcyThere was no sign of Rhys when I woke up the next day. My whole body felt like it was weighed down with lead weights. My eyelids were heavy and my joints stiff. It took me a while to get out of bed. And I had no idea when he even left.“Good morning Ma” A voice startled me when I made it into the kitchen.“Morning?” I was confused. It was the same elderly lady I had been seeing around the house. She looked uncomfortable with my presence, like there was something she wanted to say but couldn't.“Do you want to say something?” I asked when I noticed how she seemed lost in thought.Her face lit up then and her features softened. “Oh no I didn't mean to bother you... Just that I'm at your services and you are not supposed to be in the kitchen, I can make whatever you want” She said.Her gaze lowered to the counter top. Her cheeks colored slightly and her hands began wringing in front of her.I smiled at her kindly. “Making a cup of coffee wouldn't hurt me and it wouldn't hurt you ei

    Rhys“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.

    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.

    DarcyI was the first person to leave Rhys' room after our endless night of sex. I didn't want to deal with the aftermath of him leaving me again. He was going to be angry and confused but he could handle it. I knew how we worked together well enough to understand what he wanted from me. I’d get over it eventually, moreover my thoughts were on other things. As I returned to my room, I had a warm bath, I could still smell him around me like some kind of lingering scent. It felt amazing and I needed more. When I stepped out of the tub to dry myself off, an idea came into my mind.Maybe I could go to Cory and offer her a peace treaty in order to gain her trust. She'd probably not believe me but it's worth a try. My heart ached at the thought of the pain I was definitely going to feel if I found her holding my son. I couldn't bear the thought of him being in her hands, it was a constant reminder of what I needed but didn't have. And she wouldn't stop trying to rub that in my face.I

    Unknown POV“You haven't said anything, you didn't call me, no text, nothing. I thought we came to a mutual agreement to be partners” The blonde in front of me went on ranting ‘what could have gone wrong this time?’ she seemed to think and her eyes widened like comets when I took another sip from my coffee. I couldn't tell if she was angry at me or just startled because there was so much emotion in her voice when the words left her mouth. It was quite loud for such a small place.I focused on her red lipstick instead on trying to make sense of what she just told me and why she was upset with me. “Nothing new happened” I finally told her after taking a deep breath. She seemed to calm down a little bit but still looked angry enough to kill someone “The deal was that we would come up with something. They seem to be in love and Rhys hates me… I think” Her voice sounded bitter when she mentioned her ex and it made me uncomfortable. “Did you sleep with him?” I asked.Suddenly she looked

    Third person POVThere was a feeling of dread within Mr Stark, the kind that makes the hair on the back of your neck stand up. It’s so much more than just fear—it’s also confusion, and worry, and maybe even sadness, because if he wasn’t wrong…then something was truly off.First the death of his friend had come as shocking news to him, one that had nearly shattered the stability that Stark had left in his life. Jude had not just been a friend, he had saved his life multiple times and was someone close to his heart. He had become an older brother, a mentor, a confidant, a partner. But most importantly, he had been a mentor—the one who had taught him all about law, and life, and things that he still didn’t get the hang of like golf.He couldn't imagine how the world would feel without Jude. Without his constant smile and endless encouragement, he would have lost his way long ago. His presence brought life into Stark’s life when it needed it the most—when everything felt bleak.As Stark w

    Third person’s POVWhen Darcy’s mother knew that her attempt of peacekeeping was not working, she had tried other ways which had also not yielded any futile result. Her husband had come in after the plate incident, his face was red with fury, his hands clenched into fists like he wanted nothing more than to strike them against something, someone.Darcy had hid behind her mother’s floral print dress."We can't afford this," his tone was low, dangerous like a snake about to strike, "you didn't raise your child properly, she is wild and tainted by filth." He spat out each word as if it were poison on his tongue."This is my house, the first home we've ever owned," his words had turned hard and bitter like broken glass laying on the and Darcy felt an ache deep within herself that she hadn't known before."You must be sensible," his eyes were cold, calculating, like those of a scientist about to crack some important scientific truth.He had never referred to her as his daughter, then Darcy c

    Third Person’s POV“MAMA" she whispered, "can I go out?""Hmm," her mother had hummed in response as she stroked Darcy’s hair, “Is that a yes?” Darcy asked hopefully“No darling”. The answer came with finality.Darcy frowned and pouted and huffed ‘but why?’"Why can't I go out now? Are we waiting for something important to happen." Darcy protested. She was seven but she had always know what she wanted“That's enough Darcy,” her father called her.“But Mama always lets me play outside,” Darcy whined.“You spoiled her,” her father had said sternly to Darcy’s mother.Her mother rolled her eyes at the statement before looking away in shame and guilt, thinking of what to do about her daughter.“Please mama…just once I want to go outside. Just this once” Darcy pleaded.It was as if the whole place froze. The mood in the house changed instantly and everywhere was silent, it caused Darcy to shrink where she sat slightly under their piercing gaze. She knew something bad happened and her mothe

    Vincent“That asshole!” I cursed as I smashed the glass across the walk. The child began to cry.“Nicole! Nicole!” I heard Cory scream out. Nicole ran into the living room.“Make him stop crying” Cory ordered. Nicole took the child from her and left.“Can you tell me what is going on? You are overreacting” Cory demanded. She was not happy about being ignored.“The foolish old man did not agree. He rejected my money” I seethed through gritted teeth. “I should have known he would do that. He was always the same. Nothing was ever good enough for him” I continued ranting.“You can’t just expect him to jump on the offer immediately, my dear husband, greatness takes time and effort. You will need to be patient with him. He is still adjusting to your offer. It will take some time”“What if he doesn't agree to it before next week?” I huffed. “I cannot wait a whole week. I am in the market for something soon… Something special” I continued pacing back and forth. “Something that will last...”

His hair was greying and there were creases that made him look less like an intimidating businessman and more like someone whose life was more lived than most people’s.“It is. So why are you here?” he asked, putting down his fork. “Is everything okay?”I put down my glass of wine as well and took a deep breath before I answered “Yeah. Yeah. Everything's fine.”We stayed silent for about fifteen seconds after my statement until Mr Stark decided to break it: “And you're sure? You're absolutely certain that you’re okay?”I nodded.“Good”“Well y

Then it all went still. He released his content in my mouth and I took all of it panting heavily. His hand found mine and intertwined it with his.“Thank you” he whispered. His breath tickled my earI turned my head towards him so our noses were touching.“You are welcome” I whispered back before leaning up and placing a kiss upon his lips.Maybe he could taste himself there after all.He lifted me up from where I still was in front of him and placed me gently down on the edge of the bed. My back rested upon the mattress, he climbed on top of me straddling my lap. His fingers brushed against my cheek lovingly causing warmth to radiate throughout my entire body as he looked deeply into my eyes and smiled."God, you are beautiful," He said with awe evident in his tone of voice.I smiled shyly "I'm glad y
