STONE HEARTED C.E.O 66 Guilt
"You are late again or is that allowed because you are now the chair?", asked Irene in contempt."Sorry I got held up. It won't happen again", I said guiltily.For the first time in life Irene is right. But what was I supposed to do? I wasn't allowed out because my husband was a bone head. I don't know what I can do with that. He also happens to own this organisation so I'm basically helpless. All I can do is that manage being a wife and a chairperson the same time. It is not easy and sometimes it would overlap."If the small talk is over let us start the meeting", said André."We got a complaint that the volunteers are unable to do their work", said Renee."Why is that? Maybe we should stop their meal voucher then they will be able to do it", said Irene with contempt."Irene don't be mean at least try to listen what we are trying to say", said André."So are we trying to ignore everything like this guy standing right behind Ziva. Who is he anyways? Does anyone even think to ask? What
STONE HEARTED C.E.O 67 Brave the storm
An eery calm enveloped me as I braced myself with a big confrontation with my husband. As my home gets nearer it started to growing. Once I'm outside I saw him waiting his face was masked by rage. I slowly went to him and put a hand over his chest."Dane please listen to me", I tried to soothe his anger."Go to your room Ziva", he said not even looking at me. I watched Fathima and every other maid lurking nearby. What ever he wants to say or do he wouldn't want an audience at least. That would leave my pride intact. I went to my room and started to change into my pajamas. I was only wearing a bra and panties. Maybe my body will distract him from the fight I hoped secretively. I heard the door click open and close behind me. I turned around to find him standing behind me. He drew me into his arms with rough kisses. I sighed in pleasure.His fingers finding my wetness while kissing the hell out of me. I was on the brink of orgasm. I never expected him to reward me for my defiance. Then
STONE HEARTED C.E.O 68 Office politics
I had my dinner and walked to my room. My husband was still working. I didn't know even if he had anything for dinner. He was busy over the phone. I felt so tired that I lied down on the bed. I had zero solution for the problem of how to tackle Enzo? Dane wanted to discuss with Enzo. I couldn't even think of them being near enough to talk. Enzo was dangerous period. I can't let my husband go anywhere near Enzo. I knew the only solution was to call the cops. But my husband has some deranged concept of loyalty to Enzo. It only solidifed what ever notions I had for Enzo. He was extremely dangerous exactly because of that. My husband even after being an experienced and successful person still hadn't been able to shirk of his devotion to a mafia leader. Why would my husband even care for what happens to a criminal? I know why because my husband was saved as a young adult by that heinous man. Once you love someone that young you could hardly forget it.I still wanted an approval from my fam

I reached the hospital and Kyle was already waiting for me. We went with him. I was very nervous to meet who ever he wants me to see. I was sure it was someone special otherwise he wouldn't have asked. I excused myself to Herald who was extremely understanding and didn't question me at all. I went inside the hospital room. I saw a very pale lookig woman lying down. Kyle called her. I stood near the lady was a little old and I watched him gently shake her. I felt bad when I heard him refer to the woman as his mother. Her eyes blinked open. When she saw me she held out her hand and I took it. "Thanks for agreeing to see me. I know you are going through something. But I don't have much time as you can see. I'm delighted to meet the woman who had captured my son's heart", said she. I shuddered in surprise when I heard her refer me as such. What the fuck had Kyle told her."I know you need sometime for making it official. I only want you to know that time waits for none. Don't make the m

I was tired and dead on my feet. My sister and Ella left. They wanted to take a bath. My husband is still here somewhere attending the calls. I knew he took a break from work for me. But he needs to take rest. I'm more than enough to look after my father. I went to Dane who was still talking to someone on the phone. But he ended the call when he saw me. "Dane you have to go. Go freshen up or something", I said to him."No babe I know you want to wait till your father opens his eyes so I will wait with you", he said taking my hands in his."There is no need I'm not at all tired. I would be alright here", I lied to my husband."Fine I'm going to fresh up and come back here. Then you will go home and do the same while I stay here", my husband bartered with me."Fine", I said giving him a tired a smile.He went home. I sat on the uncomfortable chair. I prayed all the time my dad get better. Then a nurse came to me I eagerly stood up hoping that it is a good news. "Are you Ziva?", she a

I got dressed carefully. I put in my favorite blue dress. I always believed that dress was really lucky for me. Simply because I was wearing that when I first saw him. I knew he didn't see me that day in fact he saw me much later. I still remember running behind the car. He was a stranger then but how things change. Today I know him perhaps more than myself. Life had changed me too. I had faced the loss and gained my husband's love. Well you can't have it all I guess. My husband had already left to the office. I was a no show to the office at least a month. I wouldn't be surprised if they kicked me out. But it was practically impossible because my husband ran it.Fathima was exceptionally kind to me. She gave me my favorite meals and send me off with another generous lunch. We rarely has time for lunch. We will be always packed. Running a charity is not a menial task. I climbed inside the car after passing a small smile at Herald. He had held me while I broke down. I was alone while I

Me and Herald waited till Kyle left the building. It was an unspeaking agreement between us. I don't think I could slander myself anymore in front of my body guard who was hired by my husband.I saw Charlie in the reception. We rarely spoke while we were in the office. But I decided to speak anyways let people think what they want. Trevor was on leave and Agwa was in the washroom."What is it?", she asked noticing my solemn face."Kyle came to say sorry", I said."For what?", she asked me."He took me to the hospital where his mother is doing chemo and lied to her that I loved him", said I."That is messed on so many levels", commented her."I know", I said agreeing with her."You are still in contact with him?", she asked me."No. I blocked him right after. That is why he came to say sorry personally", said I."Ziva let it go then. People often fuck up when they are in love", she said."I feel so betrayed that he would do something. But I forgave him. I'm not interested in his frien

My hands shook as I took divorce papers in my hands. I never imagined he would punish me this way."Why are you doing this?", I asked."Because you would never be a mother and on the top you lied to me", he thundered."I'm sorry. I didn't want to lose you. I love you ", I said to him."I'm going away from you for ever", he stormed out. "Babe", I heard someone wake me up. I opened my bleary eyes to find my husband leaning over me."You are here", I said hugging him tightly. He was suited up ready for office. I knew it was six or six thirty hardly. My hard working man who wakes up early in the morning is still here. He is not leaving me. It was all but a bad dream. The guilt was eating me from inside out. I hate to feel like this."Got to go Babe. I came to give you a goodbye kiss", he said. "You do that? Since when?", I teased him. "Every day after marriage I guess", he said smirking at me. "What?", I asked with a gasp. "I like to take risks but not on lips. I'm not suicidal ", he

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

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

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
