STONE HEARTED C.E.O 142 Save myself
They left me to rot in here and went on a date. I can't believe it. I wanted to shout but I doubt anyone would hear me. I had one option which is to climb down the window movie-style. But there is a small issue I'm afraid of heights. I don't want to take a risk of that level if it is not a threat to my life. I knew she can't keep me more than tonight in here. I don't have my phone with me and that was the biggest problem. If I had known her intention I would have kept it with me or hidden it. But I had no clue that I was walking into a trap.I didn't want to even think about what could be happening at home. I wanted to throw up or hit the pretty mirror that Heidi adored because I was so angry. But I was a calm person, not a dramatic one. I had never destroyed a property before and I wasn't going to start today. I tried to think rationally. I had complete faith in my husband. He would never betray me. I'm hundred and one per cent sure that he wouldn't do it. But I hated the fact that s

snoozing want me to come up with you?", she asked me."No. Thanks for coming", I told her while I hugged her."That is me your knight in shining armour", she said with a snicker.I slammed the door and ran to my home to save my knight's honour that is about to be compromised by my sister.The security watched me curiously and when they realised that I was alone I saw panic in their eyes. I didn't pause anywhere instead I dashed to the door and pressed the bell. Fathima came up to open the door. I knew he had knee pain. So my wait was a bit long."You said you would be staying back", she said."I don't have time to explain where is Dane?", I asked him."In his room", she said. I flew up the stairs at lightning speed it helps that I ran tracks in high school. Maybe I should have given that a shot. I went to his room and opened the door. I saw Heidi in her nightgown beside a sleeping Dane. I was consumed by rage. She stood there guilty but Defiance was seen burning in her eyes."What did

wrecked him no need to worry he is doing good. Sounds like he did quite a party", observed the doctor. I gave him a forced smile."Can we see him?", asked Jake."Sure he was asking about his angry wife", said the doctor.Jake chuckled while I sighed. He knew that he was in trouble. But he wasn't afraid I guess. He is ready to deal with my wrath. But he has no idea how much it is going to be.I stormed inside with Jake in tow. He followed me snickering. It wasn't even a remotely funny situation. He had endangered his life and as I said before it was now mine since I saved his life. "Good morning my love", he said. I saw shadows underneath his eyes. "Don't you dare Dane? You don't know what you put me through", I hissed at him. "Because I had a few drinks?", he asked me with a raised eyebrow."No, because I found you with my sister. She was wearing a nightgown of the thinnest kind if you care for details", I shot at him.His lips curled with distaste when he discovered that. I shudde

A nurse tapped on my shoulder. I looked at her she was very lively and young. If she was looking after Dane I would be instantly jealous."Excuse me Mr Dane said he was not feeling good", said the nurse.I stood up immediately and looked at Jake worried. But he doesn't look worried he had a knowing smile on his face. I had no idea why he was acting like this."Let us go", I said to Jake."I don't think he wants to see me again. Excuse me may I know your name?", asked Jake to the pretty nurse. I wanted to roll my eyes."I'm January", she said with a smile."Why don't you join me? I don't want to be alone right now", he said."Sure", she said joining him without any hesitation. I had already gathered my things and left them. I was a little irritated at Jake but Dane was OK and he was always there when I needed him. But he had a life outside of me and Dane. I can't force him to follow us all the time. I didn't bother to knock and got inside but I found him relaxing and eating an apple.

"I warned you that your queen is in trouble," he said with a chuckle. His hands moved on the board and cut off my queen easily with a weak pawn. "Oh no! I thought you were bluffing", I said unhappily. "You want it back?", he asked me. Was he serious? There is no way we can get back once we lost one."Are you serious? Won't it be too risky? With queen I may win", I asked him."I'm a businessman I love risks", he said leaning back. We were in my room playing aimless chess. I used to be a winner back when I used you play chess. But now I have some stiff competition it seems. My distraction when he opened a few buttons of his shirt cost me, my queen. But now I'm very much focused on the game. No more distractions. I had put my queen back and undid my last move. I was back on winning and I was about to make a critical move when he started to undo the rest of his buttons. My eyes refused to stay on the board no matter how much I willed. "What are you doing?", I asked him. "It is hot in
STONE HEARTED C.E.O 147 Revenge
Life is so peaceful these days and beautiful. I wake up in his arms and go to sleep right beside him. He goes to his work religiously but clocks out at five unlike before. He makes time for me and we are happier than ever. His treatments had been going crazy. Ananya is here every day and they are kind of friends now. She is not easily shocked or blushed like before. I'm not insecure but still I join them most of the time. Well, you caught me there I join them because I'm incredibly jealous. But I also knew I have nothing to worry my husband thinks I'm fucking Beyonce.I watched his plate it is mostly greens now. He is not a fan of this meal but he is doing it for me. I was thankful for him. He will do anything for me. But I love him regardless of that."Do you want to go on a vacation?", he asked me."I'm already on vacation remember I quit my work", I said with a snicker."I'm sorry for that. It is my fault that you lost your job both times. I can give you back your job in my office

"Tell me what did you do to him?", I asked. I couldn't keep it with me anymore. I knew he was very angry because he misbehaved with me. But I had settled everything then and there. He was dragging this too much and I was getting wary. He should focus on getting better and not some absurd revenge plan."You don't have to know this", he said."Excuse me? This concerns me and I have a right to know", I told him. "Fine. I will tell you. I did a background check on him. He is a convicted rapist. You are lucky that you weren't one of his victims", he said. I shuddered at the thought. I had saved myself otherwise the same fate would have befallen me. I couldn't speak for some time because I was afraid of how close I had been to him. "What did you do?", I asked him in a small voice. "I gathered the woman who had run a case on him. They said they will file a case again because he had threatened them while he was out. They didn't have financial support earlier. I'm going to remedy it and pr

"You know how embarrassing this is?", I complained to him."What?", he asked me, cooly."Walking around with three people in tow. I had to visit Charlie with Janine and they had dated before. It was beyond awkward", I told him."I can imagine", he said."Ananya is here", announced Fathima.I shut my mouth. I didn't want her to hear all of it. I was beyond embarrassed already but I didn't want to add to that."How are you feeling now Mr Wellington?", she asked."The same as before", he said wryly."Good. let us start the sessions", she said.Today physiotherapy was more gruesome. She made her walk with the help of parallel poles. He was putting all the weight on his hands and his face was red with anger and annoyance. This is the part he hated the most in therapy sessions. He felt extremely useless he once said. The sweat dripped down his face. I saw Ananya note things on her notepad. I wonder what she was writing? I wanted to ask about improvements but so far nothing had happened that

Charlie hadn't said anything to Dane. If only she waited for him to talk. Charlie pretended to say the truth so that Heidi comes clean before Dane. She had done it but I knew she will pay the cost for it. Dane now knows everything. The Wedding won't happen now. I felt a little sorry for my sister after all she had lost Dane again."You didn't say the truth to me. I'm angry at you too", said Dane."I won't blame you. I should have told you about Enzo but I was afraid you won't take it seriously", I confessed."His people had shot me and you think I won't take it seriously? Ziva please be mature", said Dane."I'm sorry Dane", I said."You made us lose our precious three years of life. I missed my daughter's birth and her significant mile stones. It is not something that I can forgive", said Dane."You are right. I was a coward and everyone used that knowledge to influence me", I admitted."You are not a coward Ziva. I wish you were a little more selfish. You sacrificed us for my life. I

When I reached the venue I was immediately ushered into the groom's room. I went to see Dane working on the laptop. My daughter screamed and went to hug him. He took her and lifted above his shoulders. Who knew my serious daughter was a fun loving girl ?"I miss you daddy", she said."I miss you too bug", he said."Don't get married", she said bossily."Why?", he asked curiously."Because mommy cries", she said shocking me.He looked at me with a hint of smile. I was dumb struck."I wasn't", I said to him.She climbed down from her father and took her place next to me. I gave her a warning look."Don't lie", she said to me."I'm not lying", I said to her."You said that daddy", she was about to say everything but I put my hand on her mouth."That is enough", I warned her."There is still time confess your love or it will be too late", he said with a smirk."No. Our life is not a rom Com Dane. Everything is not black and white", I said to him."Fine your wish", he said.I took my daugh
STONE HEARTED C.E.O 237 The heartbreak wedding
I'm a stubborn creature where the need arises. I'm not going to backdown even if he says that he can't live without me. But I knew he won't say it. I had hurt him enough but still he says he can't marry Heidi. I can't go home till we reaches some sort of agreement."Dane. I'm not going back where it all started. I want an out", I said painfully. I had a fair idea on how much I was hurting him."Fine. I will get married but you have to be at the wedding. If you decide not to come at the last moment the wedding is off", said Dane."You can't say that. Please I won't go back not with Enzo there", I said to him."The wedding is going to happen here and tomorrow. Remember to be there else there is no wedding. I had booked a cab for you. It is not a good idea for me to join you", he said. I nodded my head. I was ready already.I have to be there at Dane's wedding to my sister. The fate couldn't be any more cruel. It hurt me like hell to adjust to the prospect that my husband is going to get

The thing about mistake is that we don't have a desire to undo it constantly but I didn't feel that way. Sleeping with Dane might be a bad choice on my part but I never regret a second that I spent with him. I would do it all over again if given another chance. But I shall remain silent. My thoughts never should come out of my head. It must stay there safe and silent. Even after I insulted Dane he being a gentleman had gone to fetch me fresh clothes. I stay there waiting for him to get the clothes. He must have ordered it through the hotel. But it still hadn't come. So he had gone there to check what happened to my dress. He might have fired somebody too if the hotel was his.I heard a knock and Dane came through. I stayed there very still. All my instincts said to go towards him. My emotions were over the top plus the amazing sex we had destroyed any small amount of self-control I used to have."Here is your dress", he said putting it on the bed."Can you give me some privacy?", I as

"I'm sorry for hurting you. I want us both to move on for the sake of Angel. You are also getting married to my sister. Let us end this please. What do you want in return for it?", I asked him."I want you to give me back every kiss I gave you. Then I will forget you and move on", he said."Fine. I have a condition too. I want you to give me back every kiss I gave you as well. So that we can settle the score", he said."Done", he said. I was the one who charged at him he bent down the kiss me. We kissed each other like there was no tomorrow. His tongue duelling with mine. I gasped when he bit my lips hard enough that it hurt. I bit him too drawing blood. He chuckled when he heard me growl. You better stop provoking me. I said in my mind.His hands cupping my boobs. I moaned when his hands tore my expensive dress. I didn't bother to put aside the tattered dress. It lied crumpled on the ground. I stood there in my undergarments. He removed a single boob from the constraints of my bra. H

"You can't let go of me right? You wanted to play me even after leaving me. I just played you back", he said with tight eyes."It wasn't any game Heidi loves you. She asked my help I gave it to her. I have no other interest in you", I said to him."Is that so? Then why are you on a date with me? How does it help your sister?", he asked me crossing his arms."I'm doing what I'm told. You said you will leave me alone after this date", I reminded him."I said and you listened. Things are that easy for you? Our life together didn't matter to you isn't that right? You couldn't endure a life with a handicap so you left me. But still you are here they are right what goes around comes around", he said."Why do you ask me to this date? Is it to torture me?", I asked him."No. I'm on this date to say you goodbye. You might have meddled with my life a lot. But after today you won't do anything like that ever again. I wanted to destroy you initially but then I realised that you are also mother of

"And what do you think?", I asked him."I know my feelings never died for you", he said thoughtfully."You are only saying this to punish me", I said."Why would I want to punish you?", he asked me."Because I left you three years ago", I said."It is correct that you left me. I don't think I can ever forgive you for that. But that doesn't mean that I had lost my feelings for you", he said."I think you want to bed me that is why you are talking about the feelings all of a sudden", I said."I would always want to bed you. I'm attracted to you physically and mentally. I will always want sex from you. Even when we are both a hundred years old", he said."I don't want you", I shot back at him."I realised that three long years ago. But that hadn't deterred me from wanting you like a Madan", said he."You shouldn't say such stupid things. I have used you in the past and disregarded you as it suited me", I lied to him."I got that. It still hurts. I thought you were in love with me", he sa

"You look beautiful", said Charlie carrying my daughter on her hip."Thanks", I murmured putting on the necklace.My open-sleeve dress had so many boob's that I was sure Dane would drool. I knew the game that I was playing is a dangerous one for both parties. It was like fighting with a sword that has no pommel. It can cut both."Is this some kind of a reminder for him? To have an idea of what he missed?", she asked me."I'm only getting ready for the date as he asked me to. That is all there it is. A single date where we will behave like it was the first time I'm seeing him walking", I said."You mean like while you were married to him", she said."Yes for a single date. But there won't be anything beyond that. He is going to get married soon to my sister. She had already told me that it is OK. Dane said that this date night is all he is asking in return for leaving me alone. I have nothing more to ask for from Dane and he will only get what he asked", I said."That is going to be to
STONE HEARTED C.E.O 231 Weighing everything
I have decided to give him what he want. I know it will be a lie to confess that it is something that he only he wants. I want that too. A date that we missed three years ago. I couldn't help but imagine what would have happened if I hadn't met Enzo that day. I want to see him walk towards me for the first time again. He would have been romantic and flirty with me all night. We would have ended that night early each of us eager to go home. So that we could celebrate together at night.I was very nervous. Something inside my mind warned me from going through with Dane's idea. It is not only a worst idea but the after math of the said date would be incomprehensible. I won't be able to forget and move on while he ends this fantasy of date. I would be left with broken pieces of my heart.I called Charlie for clarity. I doubt she has anything new to supply. I already know consequences of my decision even though it doesn't make a difference to me.She picked on the first ring. She had alrea
