Kenna I watch as he frowns, something has annoyed him, his jaw is ticking. That wonderfully strong jaw of his, and I see his eyes are darkening. Xander swiftly types something back, I wonder who he is messaging with. “So,” he says, looking directly at me with his blazing, blue eyes. “Do you have anything to tell me, Kenna?” “Like what?” I tap my fingers on the table. “I have a message from Violet on my phone. She says she has something she knows about you.” I gulp and reach for my wine glass. I don’t even dare to glance at him. Instead I move my eyes to the table instead. I somehow don’t think a glass of wine will be enough, maybe I need the bottle. Or perhaps Violet is bluffing. Does she know I am with him? Does she know he is in Napa? How would she know my whereabouts unless of course someone within the Bodega business who works with me is a mole and telling her my every movement. Mm, I hadn’t thought of that but now my mind is racing with all sorts of theories. “No. Like wh

KennaI lean forward and place my hands in my head, I knew something like this would happen. Violet just simply cannot help herself. She is a bitch with a capital B. Loathing and detest for her seeps through my entire body, the anger mounts up. “Can I get you anything?” Herbert has knocked on the glass office door. “No, thanks, Herbert, I am fine. Did the walk through with Mr Staniopolis go well?”“Yes, Ma’am. I think he is mighty impressed with our outfit here. It’ll be a good business partnership.” He has a smile on his face, I notice how the skin around his eyes crinkle. “Indeed,” I lie because the last thing I want is to have to be at Xander’s beck and call on a business level. I want to just move on from him yet every time I am with him, no matter how much my mind tells me he is trouble for me, my body seems to have a different opinion. It’s frustrating and conflicting. For Isaac’s business, however, it is a good thing. Xander promoting our winery in his hotels will increase ou

Dante“Has anyone seen Kenna. She should have been back from Napa yesterday evening but her driver advised she didn’t need a pick up from the airport?” I am bewildered, it is not like Kenna to go missing nor to not contact me and I haven’t heard from her in forty-eight hours.My father looks up from the newspaper he is reading at the dining table, it’s breakfast time and father is still old fashioned and enjoys a real newspaper. “No, I don’t think you need to worry too much, Dante. She will be safe.” Why do I then have an unsettling feeling in my gut? Her mother looks up from her plate. “Come to think of it, Dante, she hasn’t contacted me in the last two days either. Isaac,” she turns to my father, “isn’t she supposed to be heading into the office today for your Excom meeting?”He closes the newspaper and folds it then places it beside his plate. “She is supposed to be taking part. Yes, I need her to familiarize herself with how our Excom team works and to meet the team. It’s been a

XanderI sit opposite Kenna, my legs crossed watching her come apart, I’ve never seen this side of her and I am completely lost for words or what to do in a situation like this. I am still wondering if there is an angle, since I am so distrustful of women these days. Not knowing what the hell is going on between Kenna and Violet.Kenna called me to say she needed to see me, that it was important and involved Violet blackmailing her. From the sound of Kenna on the phone, she had been drinking. Her words were slightly slurred and some of it did not make sense at all.Needless to say, I have had to delay flying out to Asia. Thankfully I have leeway as my first meetings with the contractors do not actually begin until three days' time. I want to be able to familiarize myself first with the layout of the land, the offices I will be working from when I am in Asia and also to get to know the feel for the place. It’s a whole new market arena for me and one that I want to succeed in. There is a

KennaShocking how exhausted I feel and my hangover is not relenting, whatever possessed me to drink so much. At least nobody recognized me from any of the pictures that are currently being posted on a regular basis. Isaac and his family are always in the limelight and sometimes I wish I could have total anonymity. My driver pulls the car up in front of the house, I retrieve my bag from the seat next to me and wait for him to come round and open the door before retrieving my suitcase from the back.And another thing, what on earth did I think I was doing by calling Xander and practically telling him about Violet blackmailing me? Shock of all shocks, I am relieved to say the least that I didn’t spill the beans. And Xander. Why Xander? It’s not even like I have any feelings towards him anymore other than his mere presence irritates the holy crap out of me.“Kenna, Kenna, you are back. Oh, my gosh we were so worried about you.” My mother comes running down the stairs as I enter the house.

KennaOh God today has been a total shit show. I managed to get to the Excom Meeting, of course the members were not especially receptive towards me. Isaac introduced me as the new solutions manager and that I was his stepdaughter and would eventually be assuming the position of CEO in six month’s time. Well, that went down like a lead balloon. There were plenty of raised eyebrows and some folding of arms. Of course they don’t want a young thing like me suddenly becoming the CEO of the business and having a handle on running the business.One man, Wilkinson, an older man in his mid-fifties even went as far as to say that he thought the leader of the org should be handed to one of them not to a young girl in her twenties and what did I know about the business. Isaac did stand in my corner, thankfully and explained that he wouldn’t consider putting me in charge if he didn’t feel that I was learning from the ground up. It was exhausting to say the least. Some of the women were a lot kind

KennaIsaac takes a seat behind his maple carved desk, on which sit three screens, his laptop and his mobile. I notice the picture frame which has a picture of himself with my mother, Dante and my stepsister. Interesting, I am not in the picture. “Take a seat, Kenna.”I sit down and cross one leg over the other and clasp my hands on my knee. “I called you in because there is something we need to discuss.”Okay, I inhale deeply and yes, I admit I am slightly nervous. “Sure, is everything okay? I am nervous, butterflies are swimming in my stomach and the thought of him knowing is causing me to feel nauseous.“Yes, but I am concerned that there is some backlash from my Excom team. It wasn’t what I was expecting.” My stomach drops. Where is he going with this? Will he decide not to make me the heiress afterall? I need to be because otherwise I will be stuck working the managerial role for a very long time, and though the pay is good it won’t be enough for me to ever be able to move out o

KennaMacey’s is packed when I arrive, so many people and now I am wishing I had just gone home and changed into my lounge pants, a hoodie and thrown myself on the bed and read but I don’t want to let Elsie down. During my so-called marriage to Xander, I hardly saw my best friend. I felt almost as if I was in a prison and even when I was allowed out, I was too exhausted from all the blood donations and the neediness and toxicity of Violet.I push forward causing many men to give me admiring glances as I head for the bar where I know Elsie will be. She told me to meet her at the right side, so that is where I head for. Having showered back in my en-suite bathroom in my office suite I do feel somewhat fresher. The day is still on me though, the stress of knowing I need to win people over, having to go on this damn tour with Xander when he is back from Japan and the threat of Violet blackmailing me. I spot my friend, it’s not difficult since she is wearing the tightest bandage dress in
