STONE HEARTED C.E.O 159 Home after vacation
The best part of the vacation is that I get to spend some time with Dane. I spend all the time with him when he was at home but still, it is a lot better when he is lying on the bed carefree and possibly naked. When at home he works a lot whether it is for his office or to teach me shooting. I love my husband but I can't approve of his workaholic nature. I want him to take some time off for him and not for me. Maybe he can visit his parents instead of hyper-focusing on walking.When he stops thinking about it altogether he could do it some day. Even if he can't do it at least he is not damaging his health further."Why are your sessions now becoming secretive?", I asked him. I knew he is trying to walk for me and after we visited the hospital post my encounter with Greg he realised that he could move a bit with the help of crutches. He is keeping it a secret. So that he can surprise me fully walking before me without any support. I heard him talking to his family but I hasn't confesse
STONE HEARTED C.E.O 160 Surprise encounter
I left soon after I met Tip. I know he is a friend of Dane. But something told me that I shouldn't tell Dane that I saw him. I don't want him to worry when there is no reason. Charlie decided to stay and wait for the shift of her latest conquest. I rolled my eyes. She is a playboy among lesbians. Sometimes her lesbian girlfriends were insecure about our friendship. I tell you some girls can be so mean that one of them stole my passport. I had to reapply for another one. Janine was so cool I wonder why she didn't settle with her.I and Herald left the pub. I went to see him immediately after I was home. He was icing his body by himself. I walked to him fussing he never tells me these things. Why was he so independent?"Why do you never tell me to help you do this?", I asked him annoyed."Because I don't want to be my nurse. You are my wife and I want to keep it separate", he said with a chuckle."I don't know why I bother to argue with you. You always win them", I said irked."How was
STONE HEARTED C.E.O 161 RIP
"How was the funeral?", I asked him."A small one", he said. He rarely answers my question if it is related to Enzo. Today is no different. I bit my lips nervously. He had lost someone who was his friend in a way. He had always alerted us whenever Enzo planned anything. I knew that must be the reason he is dead now. In a way, we had a hand in his death. I know it must be hard to admit it but that is True."Does he have any family?", I prodded.I knew it is hard to get information out of him like pulling a tooth but I wanted to know. I can't know who all are going to be affected because he made the mistake of saving my life and Dane's."He has a wife and two small kids. His parents already passed away", said he."That is so sad", I said to him."That could have been avoided if you hadn't talked to him", he said still joyful for giving me."Are you blaming me for his death?", I asked angrily."No I just want you to be careful in future", he said nonchalantly. "I know I owe my life to h
STONE HEARTED C.E.O 162 Escapade
"Ever since the shocking death of Tip. The rest of the month had been going uneventful. I wanted to thank God for that. We had been busy with our lives. I even started to work on my passion which is what I wanted to do. I realised that very recently. If Dane hadn't fired I wouldn't have known it. I was lolling on the couch which was now my favourite place in this whole world but that would be a lie. There is no perfect place like a bed when Dane is near me. Our sex life had been going amazing. Apart from the usual banters there are no big fights between us.He stopped forcing me to go out with Charlie. He had slowly accepted that we had now turned into an old married couple and there is no going back. Except there are no kids to fill our lives with colours. I hope that Dane doesn't miss them. I knew that wasn't possible but I hope that doesn't exceed his love for me.Fathima had been plaguing me to do a face mask. This is the day I decided to give in. Dane is working and he hardly loo
STONE HEARTED C.E.O 163 Invitation
"Something arrived by post today", said Fathima. I looked at Fathima. We were eating the wonderful pie she created for breakfast. Nowadays we exercise more caution than ever before. We know that our life is in danger and we live by that knowledge. The letter in her hand must have gone through some heavy testing then only it might have reached us. I accepted the letter it was addressed to Ziva. I was highly surprised no one has sent a letter to me other than a few office letters. I took the already opened letter."Dear Ziva,I want to invite you to my wedding. You are a good friend of mine. I don't want us to remain strangers anymore. I accept your decision and had completely moved on. Paisley has forgiven me and consented to be my wifeTrevorThe letter might look formal on the outside but it wasn't on the inside. It held the story of me and Trevor in it. I was glad that he had moved on and was marrying Paisley. She was the best thing that might have happened to him. I wished them all
STONE HEARTED C.E.O 164 Wedding date
I was dressed in a beautiful gown courtesy of my husband. He had showered me with jewellery already. Some of them I haven't even worn once. I absently played with the necklace. I felt him near me. He looked very dressy and handsome as always."Are you dressed?", he asked."Yes", I said to him."Why are you worried?", he asked me.He is always good at reading people and especially me. I gave out a sigh. I didn't want to confess it to him. But I have no other choice."Tell me", he prodded."Should I go? I don't want Paisley to get mad", I told him."Why would she be mad?", he asked me.I was silent. I would rather forget that kiss. I didn't want to remember kissing anyone other than my husband."Listen he invited you and it was his choice. I'm. Sure he wouldn't do it if Paisley didn't consent to it. I don't think it was your fault that he tried to make a pass at you", said Dane. His eyes suppress the anger. I held his hands. It was a closed chapter for me."Let us go", I told him. He no
STONE HEARTED C.E.O 165 Disagreement
"Hey baby", said Dane kissing my shoulders. I moved away from him putting more distance between us so that I can think clearly."What happened?", he asked."Have you changed your mind?", I asked him."Regarding what?", he asked. His voice was calm. I knew he had an idea of my thoughts."About your wild manhunt for Enzo", I told him."You have no idea what you are talking about", he said."On the contrary, I know exactly what I'm saying. You can't do it", I said as an ultimatum."I will do whatever to protect you", he said."You can't protect me by doing illegal things", I said."I'm not doing anything illegal", he said."Not at the moment but you will soon. I know it", I told him."Ziva I will only eliminate Enzo. The law will thank me for that", he said."No, you are mad if you think you can escape from the death penalty by killing someone. They don't care who you kill. It will only matter that you ordered him to be killed", I said."You need some rest. We will talk in the morning",

"Mr Wellington hadn't come home yet", said Fathima.Her disapproval was very much clear but I had no response. What will I say? I banned my husband from the bedroom. I won't talk to him until he puts behind his ridiculous plan of killing Enzo. It is better if I don't say anything to Fathima she won't understand. She hardly sees anything past her blinding loyalty to Dane anyways.Speaking of Dane he avoids me just as I avoid him. For him, it is very easy but for me, it is very difficult. He works more at the office. I'm sure his already soaring profits might have skyrocketed post our fight. Jake called me once or twice but I didn't pick up. I don't know whether the bounty was already out or not. I haven't asked him yet. I'm afraid that I don't want the answer.My day and night are filled with reruns of Bachelor just so I could punish myself. I wanted to watch all the bad choices contestants make and get some form of sick pleasure. For them, it would be easy to correct it in the next epi

STONE HEARTED C.E.O 239 The end
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
STONE HEARTED C.E.O 238 Interference
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
STONE HEARTED C.E.O 236 Tangle
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
STONE HEARTED C.E.O 235 Settling the score
"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
