The harsh glare of the sun did nothing to perturb me as I walked to the glass door that was the entrance to Trove Company. I looked up at the imposing logo of Trove in capital letters on top of building and a tremor went through me.

‘Finally, a corporate job’, I squealed a little to dissipate the nervous energy and I smoothened my curls and adjusted my bangs while checking my reflection in the door.

‘Deep breaths’, I pushed open the door and walked into the building.

‘Time to meet my coworkers’ I get in the elevator after asking for directions to the PR department from the front desk and pushed the button for fifth floor.

‘Wait! Hold it!’ I heard a voice shout and quickly hit open on the elevator.

The door slid open revealing a guy. He moved to enter then stopped dead in his tracks upon seeing me.

‘Creepy’ I thought.

He kept staring while fiddling with the strap of the bag hitched on his shoulder.

I gave my hair a pat down and looked myself top to bottom to make sure nothing’s wrong.

  • The Arrogant Billionaire's Redemption   Soliciting

    ‘Simon!!’, I flared up the next second,‘I had it under control', my voice explodes rising in anger,‘You had to go and ruin it', my voice broke as it dropped, my hand dropping with it and my anger died as quickly as it started as every person in the room shared tensed looks.‘I’m sorry', he sounded beaten, voice showing remorse but my heart was too battered to process it,I stretched one hand out till he placed my phone back across my palm, curling into a ball on my bed, and turning away from him.Staring at my phone screen was all I could do, turning it on and watching it fade to black was what got me through the minutes it took Adam to call back.The phone didn’t even get to ring before I picked it up,‘I want to speak with you Tina, and you alone', forget brightness, forget mirth,‘The next time I hear someone else's voice, the deal his off', his voice was manic and manic alone, dripping malice.‘I understand’, I spoke quietly, not wanting to infuriate him further,‘Alri

    Ajax’, his name dropped from my lips, like a strangled sob as I shot up in bed,My chest heaved, breathing wild, my forehead dripping with sweat,Simon stumbled from his bed, half asleep, staggering to my side.‘What happened’, his words were slurred as he blinked medication induced sleep from his eyes yet worry was evident in them,‘What happened’, he repeated, holding my face in his hands, brushing sweaty curls from my forehead,My eyes watered, sobs racking my body,‘They took him from me', my voice shook, whimpers escaping my mouth,‘He was here, with me, then he was gone'Simon drew me in, folding me to his chest like he had always done,‘It was just a dream', my tears flowed to his neck, a mix of my sweat and terms soaking his shirt,‘Just a dream', he whispered against my hair, stroking my head but my mind was still plagued by the nightmare I woke from.We were both in the playground, Ajax and I, and I watched him, intently, like I always did, while he jumped from sw

    The closest hospital was fifteen minutes away, and we met with shock on getting there.‘What’, shock dripped from my tone the second time in the same hour as I stared at the doctor assigned to me,I was alone in her office as she looked through the result of my X-ray.The first was when I heard that Simon had to be admitted just minutes ago,According to the nurse, Simon’s wound was infected and needed close monitoring,‘But I did a good job at dressing it when it happened’, I protested and she glances at me with a knowing smile on her face,‘You did, but according to your husband the shard stayed in for hours’, I couldn’t explain the giddy feeling, the sweet shivers that always spread through me anytime we were called husband and wife.‘The dressing was also wet like you let water get into it’, the feeling simmered, dying out as I turned a glare towards Simon.‘I told you, you need help bathing’, ‘I didn’t want to bother you’, he replied me and I eyed him up and down, my ey

    Well...not…not exactly’, my eyes narrowed at a spluttering Simon,‘We’ll discuss this later’, a glare on my face I whisper at him before I turned to Ajax‘You’re not skipping today’, I stretch my hands out for Simon to pass him to me,‘But I want to play with you and daddy’, he pouted at me, grabbing tightly to Simon’s neck‘We can play when you get back, school is important’, I glared at Simon again, watching a sheepish look take over his face,‘But daddy said…..’‘I’m sure daddy was just joking’ ‘Right Simon’, I turned a tight smile to Simon and he nodded quickly,‘Yeah, Ajax’, his face looked pained as he tried to force a smile onto his face,‘I meant if you fell sick, you could skip to go to the hospital’, Ajax pout stayed on a moment more before it resolved, it turned into a frown in seconds as his eyes fixed on Simon’s face,‘Daddy, are you sick?’‘Your face looks bad’ Ajax stretched his hand out, poking Simon face with a finger, ‘No…no I’m not sick’, a forced la

    The next morning finds it almost impossible to get us out of bed,We stared, cradling each other’s faces like we were making sure those whispered moments of the night before were real.‘Good morning’, bumping my nose with his finger, Simon greeted me,‘So we’re getting married or something’, ignoring his greeting, I poke his nose the same way he did mine, remembering the giddy feeling from being called Valentina Valero,‘Baby!, we’re already married’, sweet shivers fill my belly from the endearment used, but a little confusion rivals it, lop siding the smile on my face,‘Yeah, and then we got a divorce’, confusion spilled to my voice, but that smile, that silly smile that said “I know something you don’t” stayed on his face,‘Don’t be too sure about that’ Simon springs from the bed, a sly smile stretched across his lips.‘Explain that statement Mister’, I jump up too, wagging my finger at him,I’m interrupted by a knock on our bedroom door, the door pushing open almost immedia

    ‘Oh my God!!’, I shout, staring at the counter, at his back,‘Why didn’t you tell me’, I was staring at blood soaked tissues, a large piece of glass lying among them, blood streaming down a gash in his shoulder.I felt stupid, I had hugged him, yet I knew nothing of the large gash streaming blood.‘You carried me, helped me with my toes and all this while you had glass lodged in your shoulder’.‘I didn’t want you to worry’, he had a sheepish look on his face as he grabbed more tissues, stemming the flow of blood,‘What kind of excuse is that, do you want to die of blood loss’,‘It’s not that bad’, he replies me and I turn a glare towards him,‘I’ll be fine, I heal fast’, he smiles sheepishly,‘Don’t you dare use my word against me, this is more than just blisters’ I press against the wound with him’‘We’re going to the hospital’, I try to pull him with me.‘What of Ajax?’,‘You’re my priority right now’, I use his words too and a laugh drops from his lips,‘I just want to sleep now, w
