“We have the HR Director in the business class. Do you want me to call her?” She punched him in the stomach. But he didn’t even bulge. He hugged her tightly. “You are killing me.” She smacked him. Graham sighed. “This is inappropriate, Reid.” She was so embarrassed now as Reid teased her further. “Just go inside the toilet,” Reid said and was pushing Graham. So, they are indeed brothers?She realized that now as she looked up at him, her chin pressed under his chest. She was that small around him. He grinned and twirled her around and gently pushed her forward. “Now, back to your nests.” “That was embarrassing.” She hissed at him. “It’s nothing. I should report you to the HR Director.” He said nonchalantly.“Hey, that’s unfair.” He laughed as he sat down and their drinks were served. Shortly, Graham came with champagne in his hand. “Okay, guys. This is advice for both of you.” He squeezed himself next to Reid since there was still space for two people. “Just get married so t

She ran her fingers through her hair as a big guy approached them with an umbrella in his hand since it was sprinkling from the sky and led them directly to their expensive-looking big van. It didn’t have a company logo at all. He sat next to her and placed a blanket over her thigh. She thanked him as she went on to check their hotel room. “Everything is perfect. Rooms are ready for check-in.” She said and called the hotel to confirm their late dinner. She quickly reached for a tissue and upon smelling some kind of car freshener, she sneezed. “I’m sorry. Please excuse me.” “Bless you,” Echo said as he sneezed out well with his hands on his nose and mouth. “Bless me.” She handed him the box of tissues as she sprayed her hand with the alcohol and the air. “Hannah, how about your dress for the events?” Graham asked. “Quinn is asking. You should coordinate with her.” “I will, sir. Checking in with her.” She said as Reid sighed and turned his head at Graham, glaring at him. “By the w

Their dinner was set up on the dining table by the presidential suite. Graham was trying to be the best employer by feeding Quinn more protein. It was an irony for Hannah. But it was adorable to see Graham taking care of his mate. She’senvious that such a man exists.Most people that she meets are assholes. Including her mate, her ex-boyfriend. She doesn't know if she calls him ex since their relationship was only a game. Reid and Echo seemed to be good guys. That also includes Graham who was busy taking care of Quinn. “Alright, next time you will not be left out,” Graham said. “You made me worried sick.” She was busy eating while glancing at him. “If you would stop canceling your appointments I wouldn’t have to work my ass so hard to get things done,” Quinn said in a monotonous voice as Hanna pressed her lips. Graham was silent as Reid and Echo seemed to be holding their laugh. “Hannah, let me sleep in your room, and let’s check on what they got you to wear for tomorrow.” “Sure,

That night she joked about them being together. He somehow comforted her. He was down as well and he was so stupid not to grab that opportunity. Now, here she is. She doesn’t even want to be touched at all. “You know,” She smiled but it cracked. “That night, it felt like my throat was closing and my chest was in so much pain… seeing him with another and not to the one whom he’s fated with. I would gladly accept it if he said it with words…” She shook her head. “I had known him for a long, but even back then, he was just a dream that I was unable toreach. We were together… we kissed… but I was the other girl. After my years of crushing him, I knew he was just a fantasy, but I just wished that I wasn’t crushed like that.” She exhaled. “Painful words were thrown at me, and I should get used to it. But hearing from him… like I was a toy?” Hannah now remembered that day just after her birthday.He stared at those eyes, it became cloudy. Her eyes were supposed to be siren… a little sharp b

She woke up feeling lighter. Her mood was light and she sniffed the room. She reached between her legs to see if she was bleeding since she felt wet. Her alarm started ringing and she slipped off, cleaning up half of her body. She brushed her teeth and instead of washing her face, she took her ice roller from her mini-freezer and rubbed it on her face and around her eyes to remove puffiness. Then, she quickly got to her vanity mirror and fixed her hair, with curls and hair spray to keep it intact. Then, she put make-up on. Quinn knocked and opened the door. She looked glorious. She gaped at her. “Wow, you are so beautiful.” She complimented with dazed eyes. Quinn turned around. “Of course, I do. Graham made sure that I slept well last night. He gave me a massage.” She said as she approached her.“Here, I’ll help you with makeup.” Quinn taught her how to do fast make-up and she introduced the products that she should use to have a flawless look. She then sprayed her face with water a

They left the venue for a while as she needed to breathe. As soon as they reached outside, he pulled her closer, without realizing that he saw her ex-mate. She looked up at him as he smiled down. “Let’s have some matcha.” “Sure… but I would like some fruit tea for now. Are you going to treat me?” She asked as he checked for his wallet. He sighed and nodded. “Oh, wait. I need to sell my body since I don’t have my wallet.” He said as she sighed. “Yes, that’ll do.” They laughed along as he placed his arm over her shoulders. They went to the bubble tea station to get their drinks. He removed his coat as she held it and while the cashier was waiting for their payment, he was about to remove his shirt. “Wait, you are damn serious?” She asked and frowned. “Yeah, I don’t have money.” She reached her head. “Damn,” She pushed him away as she rummaged through her purse. “I was about to strip to pay for our fruit teas.” He said as the cashier flushed bright red. “I’m sorry.” She apolog

He knew it. In his instinct, Ian still had a thing for the mate he rejected. Somehow Reid likes this little game. Somehow, he wanted more of her tongue and her laugh. He wanted her so badly that even her scent was like a drug. She checked her tablet while Quinn sent her things. To shop. She needs to go shopping and check for souvenirs. And it seems that he’s also going to meet many people. “Oh, this is tiring,” Reid said. “What? You ask for it.” Quinn said and flipped her platinum blonde hair. “Now, go and go…” She shooed them. “Make sure to take your time and just flirt.” She frowned as she shook her head. He knew well that she was being forced but it can’t be that bad? Could she be enjoying it as well? They headed to the ground floor while she was wiping her hands with wet wipes. He frowned as he moved closer to her. “Why are you wiping your hands?” “It’s sticky.” She said and handed it to her. “I’m fine. I don’t want to wash my hands. It still has the memories of you.” She

While she was busy gathering things and picking them up, Reid asked to be dropped off by some street and building. She didn’t know what it was called but it’s quite a luxury.“Pick me up in an hour.” He said. “Go take her to shop for more clothes.” He told the driver. She did not know the name of the driver. “I’m Brett at your service, Ma’am.” “Hi, Brett. Just call me Hannah. But I don’t think I want to go shopping.” She said. “There are a lot of souvenir shops here.” She tilted her head. She doesn't have that much money to spend. Besides, shopping in an expensive city? No, she won’tdo that. She sighed as she thought for a while. “And Alp~~Mr. King said to give this to you.” He handed her a small flat wallet. She took it and checked it. A black card. “King?” She creased her brows. “You mean Mr. Graham?” “Uhh… the other King.” he smiled as she crossed her arms and thought deeply. The other King? Could it be Reid? But his surname is Jaxon. Reid Jaxon. Or he’s hiding his identity.
