STONE HEARTED C.E.O 172 Change is the only constant
"It is good to see you Jake", I told him."Thanks for agreeing to see me", he said. Why was he being so formal? Our relationship wasn't anything like this before. What had changed between us? Had Heidi already been successful in breaking our friendship?"Why do you say that? This is your home too", I said mildly."I have come to see Dane and try to talk to him about us. I don't want to lose him", said Jake painfully. Has he already decided to lose his best friend for a fake beauty? It hurts me to even admit Heidi had seduced Jake away from us."You won't lose him Jake", I said to him."But yet he didn't come down to see me", said Jake."You know him well Jake. You have hurt him and Dane doesn't react the same way as us when he is hurt", I reminded him."You are right. I will wait for him then", he said with a shrug."I don't know how to say this so that I'm not offending you. Are you sure that Heidi is in love?", I asked him."I don't know about that but she cares for me deeply. I had

"Thanks, Ziva now I know who is my True friend", said Jake."Ziva don't trust him", cautioned Dane."Let her decide man it is her choice", said Jake."I want to be friends Jake no matter what happens", said I."Ziva I can promise that Heidi won't do anything like that ever again. If you give her another chance I can promise you that everything is going to be alright", said Jake."That is enough man. You better stay away from my wife. I won't allow anyone to hurt her ever again", said Dane."So it is alright with you if the hurt is caused by you? You are such a hypocrite Dane", said Jake."Boys stop fighting", I admonished him."Dane I have come to invite you to a double date. I will text you the details", said Jake."I'm not coming to your fucking date. It will never work out grow up man", said Dane.He just shrugged as though he wasn't affected by his comments. But I knew the sharpness of Dane's words had cut him real deep. But Jake would never show it. He is like me that way."We wi

"Talk to me Heidi what is happening?", I asked her."I have nothing to talk especially to you", said Heidi with a shrug."Are you kidding me? Jake is going ballistic over how much in love you both are", I told her."Why don't you go and ask him if you are not going to believe what I say?", she hissed at me."Heidi it is not my fault I stopped believing you. You have always lied to me", I said."There must be some reason for that because you always ruin things for me", she said."I have always tried to help you", I said to her."Stop lying big sister. You can't stomach my happiness", said she."Are you happy?", I asked her."Yes", she said."Is this because of Jake?", I asked her."Yes", she said with a shrug."Then I'm happy for you. I thought you were using him for money", I said to her."You always assume the worst in me. You think you are the only one who is perfect", she said with a laugh."I'm sorry to say Heidi that is because of you. I only wish you all the happiness now that y

"What did she say to you?", I asked curious."I didn't listen", he shrugged."What did Jake say?", asked Dane."I didn't hear as well", I told with a huff."Babe please be serious. I want to know", he said."We just chatted that is all. I told him that Heidi didn't love him", I said."What did he say in response?", asked Dane."He said he already knew it. Maybe he was working on it. He sounds pretty confident that he will be able to beat you ultimately and find his way to her heart", I said."What the fuck? Did he say those things?", asked Dane. Disgust was evident on his face."Well not in many words but that was the gist of our conversation", I told him."I don't care what they do as long as they stay away from you", said Dane."I don't think it is easy for Jake or us. He is our family", I reminded him."He used to be our family now he is an enemy", said Dane."You didn't just say that. He can't help whom he falls in love", I told him."Sounds poetic but is utter nonsense. Would you

"It is a bad idea", said Charlie."I know", I said with a sigh."You can't simply warn a person about their death because you saw it in a dream", said Charlie."Yep, but it was very scary. I would be a bad friend if I didn't tell him the truth", I confessed to her."But being a bad friend is better than being a liar because that is what you will become because dreams don't happen unless you make them come True", said Charlie."I don't want this dream to come True. It is already very much scary", I told her."Fair point. So what will you do?", asked Charlie."I will try to make her see the truth. Maybe then she will see how happy Jake would make her then I don't have to worry about the dream", I said to her."But you are going way Overboard for a dream", said Charlie."You think so?", I asked her."Yep", she said nodding her head."Fine I will let it go", I said reluctantly."But I like your idea of being friends with Heidi again. So you will get a better understanding of her devious m
STONE HEARTED C.E.O 177 Verdict
"Herald will take you to hospital", I heard the order as soon as I pressed my ears to the phone."Dane that is very unnecessary. I'm perfectly fine", I said to him."No, you are not. A doctor should check you out. You don't know half the time what you are doing", said Dane."Come on stop being so obtuse. I know my mind very well. Stop making it sound like I was crazy", I said with a sigh."Baby I didn't mean it in a bad way. I want you to be in good health", he said."I'm doing great. I will consult a doctor when and if it is necessary", I told him."Fine, you win. But the next time you throw up I will send you to the hospital in an ambulance", he threatened me. He knows how much I hate being loud."OK", I said ending the call. Thanks, Fathima for doing this favour. I was launching on the couch nibbling on the Citrus fruits. I was watching the Turkish series which is all rage now. They are much better than watching Bachelor.I was bored there is no point in waiting around. I felt alre

"I can explain", I said as soon as I saw Dane lounging on the bed. He gave me a hard look. I took a heavy breath. This is going to take a lot of time."I'm waiting", said Dane."I was afraid that we will lose Jake. He is now my friend too. So I was making sure that she didn't have any plans of leaving him", said I."Leave Jake? You don't know Jake at all. He had left women enough times perhaps the same number as your age or maybe it is double or triple if I'm being accurate", said Dane."That must be different. He wasn't in love those times", I argued back."Jake is always in love with a beautiful woman", said Dane."I can't lose Jake. That is why I decided that Heidi should be allowed back into my life. Jake had assured them that she won't try anything like that ever again. Her desperation drove her to do that madness", I told him."I don't care Ziva. I don't want to know the reasons why she tried to fuck me while I was sleeping. It is sick as it is. I don't wish to be involved with
STONE HEARTED C.E.O 179 Another big news
It has been a month since I saw Heidi under cover now things had changed a lot. Jake is back in our life and so is Heidi. Her Instagram account is in full swing. She had gained back every follower that she lost. I was very much happy for her."Hey", said Dane.I opened my eyes to his beautiful face. I kissed him soundly on his lips. He kissed me back. His hands caressing my tummy."I think you have gained weight", said him."I have?", I asked him in surprise. I was often body-shamed as a kid. Now is no different. I was very slim but I had put on some extra pounds."It is a good thing. Don't stop eating", he said worriedly.He had a right to be scared. Most women had a love-hate relationship with food thanks to body shaming and eating disorders."I think it is all Fathima's cooking. She often makes these lip-smacking dishes I always take a second helping", I confessed."As you should", said Dane."Do I look good?", I asked shyly."You always look good baby.

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

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
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

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
