Lana Monroe has it all. A social life? Maybe she’s still struggling with that. A nice and comfortable apartment in Brooklyn. Two very 'not sane’ bestfriends, more like a pain in her ass but she can live with that. A good paying job with a boss she gets along with. Most of all, Lana has her ego. Everything comes crashing down the day he shows up. Aaron Carlsen. (Okay, maybe not everything but still) Eugene decides to retire thus making Aaron the new CEO of the company. Aaron who is Lana’s enemy. Lana finds herself in a dangerous loop when all she can think about is Aaron and his stupidly gorgeous face. Lana is not only fucked, she’s extremely fucked. Aaron wants Lana by all means even if it means doing the unthinkable.

Maybe but it’s been too long and I can’t let it go on even more. My phone began to ring again, I glanced at the caller I’d to see Kai’s name displayed on the front screen. I put my AirPods into my ear and swiped right.“Where are you? Are you almost there?” Kia rushes out. I roll my eyes just as I take a turn. Why in God’s name does the police station have to be so far from her house. I let out a frustrated growl when I approach the traffic light, stopping the car.I have less than five minutes to go. “I’m almost at hers. I really hope she’s still there. God, I can’t take it if she’s not there.” My heart beat was going a hundred mile per second on the thought of not meeting her there. I would simply not be able to stand it.“Good luck!” Kai cuts the call. I gnawed know my lower lip as I look out the windshield, the numbed still going slowly. I
Aaron~The next day I woke up to a my phone incessant ringing. A grunt escapes my lips as I open my eyes, struggling to sit up and then reach for my phone. An unknown number was displayed on the screen.I furrowed my eyebrows, wondering who it could be. I swiped right, placing the phone against my ear.“Is this Mr Aaron Carlsen? We are calling from Area one police station regarding your complaint. We have arrested one miss Andrea Dawson for drugging against consent. Your presence is required." The person tells me. I felt my heart beat hike up to a thirty just on hearing Andrea has now been arrested. I remember spending the night speaking to Kai and telling him what had happened. I didn’t think she would be arrested so fast too. Oh well."Thank you, I’ll come soon.” I cut the call and got up from the bed, walked to the bathroom and had my bath. I stepped out a few minutes later, changed into something more comfortable for today and walked out of the room when I was done. I put my car ke
Aaron~“Where are you going to?” Father holds my arm, eyes boring into mine.“Where am I going to?“ I scoffed, jerking his hand away from me “I’m going to lay a complaint about your wife and Andrea drugging me, your son. Not like you care.” I rolled my eyes.“We’re coming with you, Aaron.” Asher piped up from he says with Rue.Father sighs, running his hand through his hair. “But, how and why would Melanie want to drug you?” He asks again“I don’t know, why not ask her since she’s standing over there.” I point at Melanie who had her arm wrapped over her chest, definitely not going to back down easily.“Fine! Call the police but I’ll tell them the same thing I told you, I had nothing to do with whatever is going on with you.” She counters and I chuckle“Really? That’s what you’re still going by? You did nothing but you met up with Levi and asked that he keeps what he saw that night a secret. You met him at the coffee shop and yet you’re lying through your rotten teeth. You do know that
Aaron~“What the actual fuck!” Kai exclaims, I couldn’t help but chuckle bitterly. “Yeah, she turned my life into some sick ass soap opera. Andrea managed to drug me and Melanie paid the one person who knew it about off. I mean, I knew she was vile and all of that but never did it cross my mind that she’s actually this crazy.” I shudder internally on remembering just how surprised she was when she found out Lana broke up with me. Such a silly fake person.“So what are you going to do? Talk to Melanie? Andrea or Lana?” He asks and I sighed over the phone, I look up at the house I was currently facing.“Looks like it’s Melanie. I’m tired of her bullshit and it’s time she knows that."“I wish I was there for emotionally support and also see the tea. I wish you the best.” I chuckled over the phone, pushing the car doors open and stepped out, placing the phone properly against my ear.“Yeah, yeah, do you.” I cut the call, placing it into my pocket and walked towards the door. I had texted
Aaron~“So what you’re saying is, you think your stepmother might have something to do with this?” Ellie deadpans. “Well, she’s always wanted Andrea for me and it just seemed weird that Andrea was at the same place as I was and I’m sure you know it’s very weird that Melanie was with Levi, like what could be the relationship between them?” I ask, watching every of their faces.“Man.,this is more complicated than I thought. I’m sorry but your stepmother is a fucking wimp. If this is true and she’s toying with your life then it’s better you call her out on it. This is fucking ridiculous.” Sasha exclaims.“And what if it isn’t? What if you did cheat on Lana and all of these are just some fucked up reasoning you came up with? What if you did cheat on her, then what?” Ellie asks instead. I felt my resolve crumble as I look at her.She’s right. What if I did cheat on Lana. What if I’m not innocent and Melanie actually knows Levi from somewhere, then what? “I doubt that he did. Even before t
Oh sweetie" Sasha blurts out as soon as she sees me, immediately rushing to my side. She holds my arm, Pulling me closer to her."Hey." I whisper, voice hprase from all the crying ive been doing all day."I heard what happened and just so you know, he will get what's coming to him for even daring to look at another when you were in a relationship with him. I really can't believe the nerve of men."I couldn't help but chuckle on seeing seeing her talk so fiercly about it. "I'm sorry this is happening to you because you on't deserve any of this."I glance at Ellie who was staring at Sasha and I, her arms wrapped agaisnt her chest, she had the softest yet saddest smile on her face."Will you eat something?" Ellie voices out and just at that moment did i realise just how late it ws already, my eyes straying to the wall clock hanging on the wall."I- It's so late." I state but it coes out as a question instead. I sihed, shaking my head "Im not hungry,." I reply, manuvering my way to the co
Aaron~The next day, I wake up very much out of it. A grunt escapes my lips as I sit up, supporting myself with my hands. My head feels like it’s been pounded on severally. I squinted my eyes, rubbing my hand through my face. I went to the club with Kai and… I struggled to remember what happened and once again, found myself cursing at my memory. Why the fuck won’t I remember anything. This is very much embarrassing and tiring. Just how much did I..I didn’t get to finish that train of thought as the images of yesterday night came flashing through my head. Kai forcing me to stop drinking. Kai bringing me back home. Kai helping me to the bed. I tempered everything but it cost me another rush of headache.I sighed, getting up from the bed only to see that I am still in last night clothe. Kai could’ve at least helped me to change. I walk to the bathroom, stripping off my clothes and stepped into the shower to take a cold bath. My head still banging so hard.I finished bathing and stepped
Aaron ~“Hey! Watch it. You’re drinking way too much than you should.” Kai says, taking the bottle of alcohol away.“Just leave me. I’m so fucked, Kai. I’m so fucking fucked. I have no idea what to do so please, leave me to do what I want.” I snapped, grabbing the bottle back from him.We are in our favorite spot, we’d usually come here whenever we need a break from things. Whenever we feel tired and just need a moment to ourselves, you’d usually find us here.“Drinking isn’t going to solve half of what is happening to you now. Get your ass up and stop drinking so much.” He grabs the bottle back, his tone made it clear that he wouldn’t be giving me back,“Kai, things are so bad right now.” I tell him and he hums.“I feel so choked up. I spend nights trying to think and remember what happened that night. There is this huge burden on my shoulders. Lana refuses to speak to me. There is father, Melanie , the company’s new Mr Chen of Thai. I feel so bad, I’ve been working so hard on that c
Lana~“Do you have the silver hoops? I need it for my dress, it would look magnificent.” Sasha bursts into my room, already dressed and and missing a earring. My eyes sweeped over her Look, a smile making it was to my lips."Whoo.” I whistled, watching Sasha’s face burn bright pink. She had a short blue dress that settled just below her ass, showing a lot more cleavage. Her hair was rolled and brushed down, lips coated in red."If you weren’t in a situationship with Kai then be sure that I would date the duck out of you right now. How can you look so hot?” “There is no situationship with Kai. I thought I liked him and that’s all there is to it. I don’t like him anymore though so it’s fine.” She says and I pause for a second, the silver hoop she was asking for was in my hands.“Sasha..” I trail off, removing our conversation in Grenada. I don’t know what’s happening with her especially with Kai and her. what I do know is that Sasha is very scared and with good reasons too.“Let’s not
“Please be professional, sir. I’m only here to help with the work assigned to me as your personal assistant and that’s it. I’ll appreciate it more if you were to conduct yourself in a professional manner.” He seemed taken aback by my words, eyebrows raised, lips pursed in a light frown.He huffed lightly. “I only asked if you have someone waiting for you at home, considering the fact that we are going on a business trip out of the country for three days and might need to come back abruptly or perhaps extend our stay. I’m not asking for your hand in marriage, Ms. Monroe. I promise, if I were going to make advances at a lady, it definitely won’t be you.” His voice came out short and snappy, eyes boring into mine as though daring me to speak further. I bit back my tongue from saying something sharp back at him. Inhaling deeply and exhaled.“May I be excused.” “You’re excused.” I wasted no time in leaving his office. Aaron fucking Carlsen, barreling into the company like he owns it. Well...
