GLAM MAGAZINE

“You’re back safe and sound, Amber,” Ms. June gave her a teasing grin. “You did well. What were you so afraid of?” she asked.

Amber only forced a smile.

“Well, all you have to do is prepare it, send him the draft and let him approve it before we publish it. Who knows? It might become the Cover story of the magazine.”

Amber’s face lit up. “That… sounds amazing. That was what I was aiming for before sending the outline anyway.”

Ms. June chuckled. “You are a hard working lady, Amber. I believe you’re going to make me proud, just like you’ve always done.”

“You can count on that, Ms. June.” Amber smiled genuinely this time.

She walked out of Ms. June’s office and sighed before walking to her desk. When she was seated, Gina swayed her chair to Amber’s side, and cleared her throat. “Now is time for you to give me all the tea. What is Mr. A like?” she asked.

The rest of the employees perked up their ears, ready to listen to what Amber was going to say even though they prete

    011.“What did I miss?” Axel turned to face Maverick the minute they walked into the house.Maverick folded his arms and paced the room, massaging his temples. “I don’t think their relationship is public. Else, we would have known about it.”Axel got rid of his shoes and plopped down on the couch in the living room. His heart was aching badly, but he still couldn’t blame her. After all, he left her with no choice but to date another man when he let her go.But… he thought their love was strong, right? It’d been five years. Had she gotten over him for real?Maverick stood beside him, watching his mood switch from sadness to hurt then regret.“Hey, don’t you dare regret it.” he spoke up and Axel looked up to meet his eyes. “It might not have totally been the best way to handle it then, but what would she have you do, huh? You were unprepared and had no choice. Plus, you were young and lacked the capacity to protect her then.”Axel lowered his head and rubbed his eyes. He couldn’t bear t

    012.“The interview…” Amber trailed off and forced a smile. “It went well.”Jack watched her closely. He knew Amber too well. As much as she didn’t like to boast or brag about her efforts, there was a certain way her face always lit up whenever he asked about her successful interviews. This time around, she looked conflicted, and it made him wonder what must have happened.“Hey,” he called softly. “Didn’t it go well? I mean, you’ve been preparing for months and thankfully, your outline got picked. I was expecting you to at least tell me how the interview went.”Amber sighed and licked her bottom lip. “Well…” she cleared her throat and suddenly beamed. “It went well!!!” she exclaimed, causing Jack to laugh heartily.“Gosh, you almost got me there,” he took a deep breath of relief.Amber only chuckled and shook her head, but deep down, she knew it wasn’t over. She couldn’t hide the fact that Mr. A was Axel for long. Very soon, Axel might do a face reveal and Jack would find out. Why not

    013.Amber rubbed her jaw, her eyes fixed on the red lettered “Rejected” on the draft she submitted. She wondered what could have made Axel reject her draft. She checked to see if he stayed any reasons, but there were none.“Gosh, what the heck!” she facepalmed.Gina moved closer and stared at Amber’s laptop screen. Her eyes widened. “What? He rejected your draft?” she whispered.Amber nodded with a sigh. “And he didn’t state any reasons or modifications to be made.”Gina raised an eyebrow. “That’s not right. He should highlight where you got it wrong. Besides, no one has ever rejected your drafts before. This is a first.”Amber frowned and took her phone. “I’m going to call his assistant,” she dialed Maverick’s number and he answered immediately. “Good day, Mr. Maverick, I got Mr. A’s response on my draft. It was rejected, and no reasons were stated. Would you mind helping me notify him?” she asked.There was silence from the other end before Maverick spoke up again. “Mr. A would lik

No girl has ever been opportune to have dinner with the likes of Mr. A, and she got it on a platter of gold. What trick did she play this time?” Vera, Laura’s friend spoke, watching Amber in disdain.Amber was already clocking out due to the dinner she had, and they couldn’t help showing how much they loathed her through their eyes.Laura folded her arms, her envious and jealous gaze fixed on Amber, who had no idea they were already boring holes into her back with their glares. “I’m certain she must have done something.”“Of course she has,” Vera huffed. “She is just a termite who eats into other people’s lives. This was supposed to be you, but she stole it.”Laura’s frown deepened.“See you tomorrow, Gina.” Amber picked up her handbag.“Have fun and make sure you eat a lot. Mr. A is rich and can provide whatever you need.” Gina winked.Amber rolled her eyes. “Cut it out.

    015.“All I care about is how much I want you.” Alan whispered and Amber’s eyes widened.The rest of the world seemed to fade into the background as both locked gazes. Amber was dumbstruck as she stared at Axel. Did she hear what he said or was she hallucinating? What did she miss? Why would he want her when he was the one who ruthlessly left her?That seemed to bring her back to her senses. She broke eye contact and scoffed, looking out the window. “For someone as heartless as you are, you sure have some guts,” she spat, her face scrunched up in disgust. “Keep your want to yourself. I love my boyfriend. I want nothing to do with you anymore, Axel.”Axel smiled. “At least you still know my name,” he said and Amber adjusted in her seat. “I stand on my word, Cat eyes,” he whispered, and she swiftly turned to look at him. “I only lent you to that boyfriend of yours, and I’m going to take you back.”Amber folded her arms and glared at her. “Don’t make me repeat myself.

    016.The next day, Amber couldn’t concentrate on work as she kept zoning out, her thoughts drifting to what Axel said the previous night.Did he actually mean everything he said? She might not have given him a response then because she was unsure, but now that she thought about it, did he really want her? Did he approach her because he wanted her back and not because of the guilt?Amber shook her head to get rid of the thoughts and stood to her feet. She walked to the water dispenser to get a glass of water, which she took before returning to her seat.“Amber, Ms. June wants you.” Gina tapped Amber’s back.Amber nodded and headed for Ms. June’s office. When she got there, Ms. June gestured for her to take a seat which she did. “The deadline is approaching, Amber. Have you corrected the draft and sent it to Mr. A?” she asked.Amber shook her head. “I’m almost done with the corrections, Ms. June. You know, he made numerous corrections so…” she trailed off and lowered her head.Ms. June

Axel looked at his father, his expression showing he wanted an explanation. Candice rubbed her arms, waiting for Kevin to say something.“Hey, no need for the staring contest, come sit down,” Kevin smiled at Axel.Axel sighed and sat down, crossing his legs. Candice sat down as well and Kevin followed right after. He faced Axel. “Before you ask, no, she isn’t one of the ladies I kept for you. Besides, you already made it clear that no one can replace Amber,”Axel nodded, his gaze fixed on Candice, who looked away instantly. She couldn’t believe how more good-looking he had become:“You know Candice’s father has been friends with us for years. Candice just returned from overseas where she went to study theatre and arts.

Had he become a pervert? Why would he hold her like that?Axel’s eyes darkened and closed the space between them. He leaned forward, but Amber leaned back. Axel didn’t stop and leaned in again. Amber tried to lean backwards to escape him, but he wrapped his hand around her waist and used his other hand to support her back. “I do that to only those who come to my office uninvited, while I’m addressing my employees and asking us to talk.” He paused, his eyes locked with hers. “Now, shall we continue our conversation?” he questioned, raising his eyebrows suggestively. “You look a little hot, do you know that?” Axel whispered, sendi

    030.As they drove Amber back to her apartment, a soft music played in the car while Amber was lost in thoughts. She couldn't count how many times her heart had skipped beats tonight. And when Axel told her his wish, she felt a kind of warmth she hadn't felt in years; a familiar warmth only Axel could give.She turned to look at him and there he was again, staring at her, with those piercing blue eyes of his that intimidated other people but made her heart yearn for him. When she had asked why he wished for her and not for himself, his reply wasn't something she'd expected,"I wished for you because I want nothing more than to see you happy, loved, successful and full of energy and hope. For me, your happiness is my satisfaction. I want nothing more than that for you."And she knew she wasn't going to forget that in a hurry. "Axel," she called, her voice barely above a whisper. "Did you really mean everything you said to me five years ago?" she asked, her face filled with curiosity.A

Amber yelled in her head, but it seemed her body wasn't cooperating with her.Axel lifted her chin so she would look into his eyes and leaned forward, his eyes burning with an intensity that made Amber weak in the knees. Her grip on her bag tightened. "Cat eyes," he called and she blinked at him, knowing that if she dared to utter a word, it might come out as a moan instead. "Why are you so hot and tempting? I thought I could put up with holding myself during the day, and now you come here, all dressed up and tempting me," his voice was deep and husky, and Amber swallowed. "Do you have any idea how much I want to kiss this red lipstick off your lips and leave it swollen with a mark that I own you?"Axel maintained eye contact with her. He knew he had her right where he wanted her, but he didn't want to rush things with her. Despite the urge to show her that she was his, and he would never share her with anyone

"Cole, I've told you time and time again that this is very important. I promise to make it up to you guys on new year day. We will do whatever you guys want and it will all be on me." she pouted, giving him the cutest expression she could muster.Cole rolled his eyes, trying to ignore the puppy eyes but he couldn't. He finally gave in and raise his hand in surrender. "Fine," he said with a sigh. "But only because you said you'd do whatever we want." he smirked and Amber's eyes widened."Can I take that back?" she asked but he shook his head. "Please, let me take that back." she whined, knowing Cole was going to use it to his advantage.Cole shook his head. "Not gonna happen. A promise is a promise," he said and Amber sighed.

    026. AMBER'S APARTMENT Amber sat on the floor, her back rested on the couch in the room. Her thoughts drifted to how Axel had saved her from those thugs on the night of the gala. She couldn't believe she actually got butterflies when he called her his woman. She knew he was only trying to intimidate the men, but why couldn't she get that off her mind? Then, her thoughts went to her relationship with Jack. She should have opted out of it when she had the chance. When it hadn't gotten to this and when Axel hadn't come into the picture. Now, she didn't know what to do. She remembered her father's words, but it was easier said than done. Her doorbell rang and she forced herself up to take it. "Coming!" she walked to the door, peeped through the hole and was happy to see Melissa standing there. She opened the door with a smile. "Tada!" Melissa beamed, holding up a carton of pizza and drinks Amber's eyes widened. "Girl, I love you!" she exclaimed, taking the pizza from her and steppi

"You've been so busy working that you can't check on your mother anymore, huh?" she asked, feigning offense. "My little journalist." she pinched Amber's cheek.Amber chuckled and rolled her eyes. "Mum, stop it. I'm not that little anymore." she said, looking around to see if Cole was in."Oh, please, you will always be my little sunshine, sweetie." Loris smiled, causing Amber to smile as well."Where is Cole?" Amber asked, feeling all excited.Loris beamed. "He is upstairs in his room-"Amber didn't wait for
