THE HEAT BETWEEN US Secret Past (2)
Alright!” I said, trying to get off the bed. With my mom stubbornly insisting to assist me, we walked towards the private car park built only for VIPs, especially celebrities hiding from paparazzi. While Daniel was trying to open the car door for me to get in, I did a quick survey of the magnificent hospital with my eyes. It’s one of the corporations' hospitals, but this particular one belongs to my mother. “Alright son, do take care of yourself! Thanks Daniel!" My mom said, "It's nothing, mom!” Daniel replied before zooming off immediately. “Take me home, dude!” I said and he smiled. It seems he already knew what was in my mind. Still feeling dizzy and tired, I slept off. “Wake up man, we are at home already” He said, with a gentle tap on my shoulder. “Oh! That was quick!” I said before getting out of the car. Still feeling lightheaded, I lean against the car for a few seconds. “Welcome sir!” My housekeeper hurried out towards us. “Is it ready?” Daniel asked her, and she nodd

I arrived at the office very early, with red eyes, and dark circles. Quickly, I arranged the documents for today's meeting with the stakeholders. After which I ate what I carried along. “Good morning, sir!” I heard Andrus's voice. Quickly, I walked to his office, knocked twice and entered when I heard his voice. “Good morning, boss!” I said on getting in. “Good morning, Alexandria! Are the documents ready?” He asked calmly, and I wondered what got into his head this morning. Or maybe it's too early to be grumpy. “Yes, Boss! And the meeting is scheduled to be held in about two hours time” I said. “Wonderful! Alright, remind me in one hour thirty minutes!" "Yes, boss!" With that, I walked out. I saw the looks of surprise, and shock on the faces of the stakeholders the moment he stepped into the hall. Only for me to realize some seconds later, that it was because of the mask. Two hours-thirty minutes later, we were done and it was already time for pre-lunch break. “Miss Alexa

“Come join me!” I said, not bothered by what I did. “Nah! It's for you alone!” “Come on, Murphy!” I insisted, my mouth already filled with rice. “Alright!” With that he sat closer to me. “Alex, ain't you going out for pre-lunch? Oh! Mr Murphy is here?” Andrus smirks on seeing us eating together. I watched Murphy narrowed his eyes at Andrus, who swallowed hard, and then walked away without anymore words. “Why did you do that?” I asked, while taking a bite on the crispy fried chicken. “Did what, Milady?” “You scared him off with your eyes? Ain't you worried he might report you to the CEO? You are kind of breaking the company's rules about visitors. “Not on pre-lunch break hours! besides, he is my cousin and would do nothing!” He replied with a smirk. “Says the cousin to the nasty CEO!" I said without thinking, he paused to stare at me. “What?" "Why do you hate my cousin brother so much?" "Hate is a strong word! Nah! I don't hate it! But I don't like him either!” “And I am

“Let me get the report!” I said and she left immediately. Breathing out softly, I thought of how I can put an end to the other identity of mine. ******* The rest of the day went smoothly until closing hour, I saw her laughing at what Andrus said, and I suddenly felt like dragging her away from him, or put a slap on Andrus's running mouth. “Why does he like chatting with her? I hope it not what I am thinking?” I saw her suddenly laughing hard at whatever he is saying. Quickly, I entered the restroom in my office, and changed my clothes. After ensuring that they both went into her own office, I came out… “Murphy! You kept to your words!” She said, turning to my direction, while Andrus eyes opens wide in shock. “Why are you looking at him like that? Or, wait a minute! Are you the one that informed boss about his cousin's bost during pre-lunch break” She asked, and I turned to stare hard at Andrus. “Why will you think of a thing like that?" Andrus said, looking shocked at her acc

“Can you just calm down and listen to me, please!" I said with my icy tone which always works effect on anyone, and it did worked, because he kept quiet immediately. “Thanks, man! Listen, like i was saying earlier on, I am coming with someone. It's my new employee. I just want you to officially know her better. But the problem is, she doesn't know me as CEO Chester…!” And he quickly interrupted again. “What do you mean, man?" I could feel him frowning now. "What I mean is that, i am interacting with her with two identities. One as Murphy who she knows, and the other as Chester who she also knows but as her Boss!" I said, and he yelled out loudly. "What the hell is that, bro? What do you think you are doing?. Wait a minute? Are you in anyway wanting to date her?. Okay, this thought of mine is silly though, but are you in anyway falling for her?” He bombarded me with questions. “Yes…, i meant No..!, I just like her as a person!” I said, getting more confused at my own words. “You

“Murphy my man! How are you doing bro? Wow! You must be Alexandria? I have heard a lot about you! But Murphy never told me that you are more gorgeous than he described!” Daniel said with a smile while holding her hand. Mouthing my deep appreciation to him, I breathe out, deeply relieved of my anxiety. “He did? And he is just telling me about you!” She said, smiling at him. “Come sit Milady!” Daniel gillies her to one of the couches. “You are dutch too!” She said, already sitting down. “A dutch from my maternal side, and a Spanish from my paternal side!” He replied before pouring juice into a glass cup for her. And I wonder what has gotten into him acting super nice to her now. “Wow! What a great hierarchy you have got there!” She said sipping from the juice. “So how did you met my friend? You know he can act like a pear head sometimes!” He said, and he laughs softly. “Ladies first! So how did you became his bestfriend?” He say, andDaniel smiled widely. “Well.. I happened to re

“Is it that obvious on my face?" "Why won't he be scared of your cold Aura?" She said, after entering the car. "Why are you not scared of me, then?" I finally asked the question bothering me at the office. “Beyond your cold demeanor lays a kind hearted man! I know you are not heartless, Murphy!” She said softly, touching my chest. Staring into her bewitching sea blue eyes, my emotions went wild while carelesing the strains of her hair lurking out of place. Swallowing hard twice, I look at her naturally red lips, again. Suddenly, I kissed her. And i heard her gasps out in surprise, but that didn't stop me from kissing her soft lips. Those red lips have been driving me crazy ever since we arrived at the club. And I could still taste the sweetness of the juice in her saliva. Titling her head closer to mine, I deepen the kiss while her resistance, broke off. Returning the same gesture, I got full access to her lips, and God! She taste so sweet, so fucking sweet! I murmur inwardly, wh

“Bro, I thought you have gone home?” Daniel said, looking surprised on seeing me back at the club. “Yeah, but changed my mind! Give me a drink, bro!” I said before snatching the bottle of champagne from his hand. He slowly raises his head up with his gaze fixed on me. His eyes, carefully searching my mind for clues to my restlessness tonight. “It's about her, right?” He said, still looking at me. “About who? What are you talking about, dude?” I said, already draining the third glass of champagne. “Calm down dude! I said, enough of the drinking, bro! What is wrong with you?” He said, snatching back the bottle and keeping it away from my reach. “What is wrong with you? Do I look like a wannabe drunkard to you?” I said with a icy glare and he swallowed hard. “I am sorry, man! But I really hoping this is not about that girl? I mean that stripper?” “Don't call her that!” “She is a stripper, dude! That is the fucking, bitter truth!” “I said, don't call her that!" I said more coldly

THE HEAT BETWEEN US Madeline Brooks
CHESTER BLACKWOOD POV I barely paid attention as to my mother's finalized the details of my first meeting with Madeline Brooks. The so-called “perfect match” my parents had chosen for me. I knew I was expected to play along, to sit through dinner, smile, and pretend to care. But deep down, there was only one woman on my mind—Alex.... Despite all my efforts, she remained a ghost, slipping further away with each passing day. My private investigators had failed me. My mother’s words about Alex being dead still haunted me, but my heart refused to believe it. She was out there. She had to be. The night of the dinner came faster than i expected. Seated in an upscale restaurant, i barely glanced at Madeline as she spoke animatedly about her family’s businesses. “I know your mother wanted us to meet,” she said, swirling her wine glass. “But honestly, Chester, you look like you’d rather be anywhere else.” I smirked, leaning back in my chair. “Observant.” Madeline sighed. “Look, I’m not in

Meanwhile… Across the country, I sat hunched on the edge of my bed, my head pounding violently. A cold sweat drenched my skin, my entire body burning with fever.I clenched my fists, struggling to breathe. muscles ached, my vision swam, and my limbs felt unbearably heavy. My mother’s words from earlier haunted me. "Maybe she’s truly dead…my breath hitched, with chest tightening with agony. No. Alex wasn’t dead. She couldn’t be. But as my fever worsened, my mind began playing cruel tricks on me. I could hear her voice....soft, distant ...calling out to me.

THE HEAT BETWEEN US Strange Feeling
Daniel, who had been silently watching, let out a deep breath. "She’s right, you know," he muttered. I remained still. "You should’ve treated her better," Daniel added. "You had everything, man. And now—" He shook his head. "You’re just letting yourself rot." I didn’t respond. I barely noticed when Daniel left, the villa falling into silence once again. Then, as if moving on instinct, I stumbled toward my bedroom. My feet felt heavy, my chest tight, as i entered the dark space, and headed straight for the bathroom. Without removing my clothes, i turned the shower on, stepping beneath the cold water. It hit me like a shock to the system. Memories flooded my mind. Alex’s laughter, her soft voice, the way she used to look at me when she still believed in me. Then the pain. The way her eyes darkened with betrayal. The way she flinched whenever i raised his voice. The way she walked away, leaving me with nothing but regret. A deep, strangled sob tore from my throat. I pressed my

THE HEAT BETWEEN US Becoming A Mother
CHESTER BLACKWOOD POV I couldn’t breathe. The moment I walked into her apartment and found it empty, a deep, suffocating panic took hold of me.Alex, was gone!. There was no forwarding address. No goodbye note. Nothing. My hands trembled as I gripped the back of a chair, my entire body feeling cold, hollow, shattered. I lost her. I really lost her this time. The pain in my chest was unbearable, a sharp, twisting knife that dug deeper with every second. I had fought for her. Begged for her. Waited for her. And she still chose to leave?. A bitter, hollow laugh escaped my lips as I collapsed onto the couch, staring blankly at the ceiling. For months, I had believed that if I just tried harder, if I just proved myself, she would come back to me. But now? Now, I was nothing but a miserable, broken man, still madly, crazily in love with a woman who didn’t want me anymore. I pressed my hands over my face, my chest heaving as the suffocating truth settled in. If Alex was t

And I will spend the rest of my life proving that to you, whether you let me back in or not." I swallowed, looking away. I wanted to believe him. I wanted to hold onto my anger. But then, his voice softened. "I don’t just want to be in the baby’s life, Alex. I want to be in yours." I met his gaze, my heart hammering fast like a wheel. "Say the word," he whispered. "And I’ll walk away. But if there’s even a part of you that still feels something for me—tell me, and I’ll never stop fighting for us." The weight of his words crushed me. Because the truth was… I still felt something. And I hated it. "I just need time, Chester." His expression flickered—hope, pain, frustration. But he nodded. "I’ll wait." His voice was steady, but I could see the strain in his eyes. I swallowed hard. "This isn't just about us. It’s about our child. I need to be sure." He exhaled slowly, running a hand through his hair. "I understand, Alex. Take all the time you need." And with that, he left, but not
THE HEAT BETWEEN US A Mother's Plea
I never thought I’d find myself in this position again—sitting across from Chester's mother. She has to come over to Manhattan. Defended me from Natasha and her endless emotional torture. This woman has always looked out for me and I am grateful for her love. I can't just ignore her call anymore. She sat before me, her posture composed as always and her eyes… they held what I have come to love her for.Genuine concern. For me. For the baby. And also, for her son. The private dining room of one of Manhattan’s most exclusive restaurants was quiet, save for the distant hum of conversation from outside. A setting fitting for a Blackwood matriarch, but I felt so much warmth sitting before her. Strangely enough, I felt at peace. I felt this feeling I had missed for some months now. And I regret putting her in the dark. I wish I didn't pushed her away when she offered to help. "Thank you for meeting me," She said, her voice cool and kind. I folded my hands in my lap. "I almost didn’t.
THE HEAT BETWEEN US Natasha Romanoff Last Gamble
I stared at the screen in disbelief. Natasha stood behind a podium, her expression carefully crafted—vulnerable yet poised. "I know the world sees me as the villain," she began, her voice trembling just enough to be convincing. "But I never meant to hurt anyone." Liar. I gritted my teeth as she continued. "CEO Chester Blackwood and I have history. A deep, undeniable connection. And while I’ve made mistakes, so has he." She exhaled, her eyes glistening with fake tears. "The truth is, Chester has always come back to me. Even after Alex left, he—" I shut the laptop. I couldn’t listen anymore. I had been through enough. She was trying to break me. To make me doubt everything. But I wouldn’t let her win. Not this time. Ava stormed into my office, her phone clutched in her hand. "Boss, you need to see this." I tensed. "More headlines?" "Not just headlines." She turned the phone around. It was a live feed. Of Chester. Standing outside Natasha’s press conference. With a microph
