"I wondered what he meant by that. I mean, who becomes that emotional in the middle of a meeting?" Oliver said as he walked me to my apartment.
I laughed. "He was probably the one who leaked the documents and felt under pressure when you suddenly questioned him about it in the middle of a meeting."
"I thought so too. We had to do more investigating before we could point fingers though."
"And how did that turn out?" I asked as we stopped in front my door.
"We found out that he did it, so I fired him immediately and made sure that other businesses knew about it."
"You are one scary businessman, aren't you?"
"I don't want him to continue deceiving people. It's either he remains unemployed for the rest of his life or starts his own business. Now that I think about it, I might have done him a favour."
"Destroy him then let him build himself from scratch? You're too kind," I teased, making him

_OLIVER_"How's Kim?" I asked as I looked at Lora, who was seated across from me. We were in the middle of lunch at a restaurant that Francesca had made reservations. The food was great but my worries made it difficult to fully appreciate it.I have been trying to reach Kim all week with no progress. She was neither answering my calls nor texts and I wondered if something was wrong. It crossed my mind that she might have gotten uncomfortable with the way I talked to her on Lora's birthday but her response to my advances was anything but repulsed."I don't know," she replied after putting a forkful of pasta into her mouth.Now that was an answer that I wasn't expecting, especially from Lora. The girl who talked to me about Kim everyday after ballet classes; whether I wanted to hear it or not. "Why's that?""She hasn't been to class all week."I chocked on my pork rib and downed my glass of water to wash it down. Were thing

_KIMBERLY_"Yes, saute," I instructed. "Relax your bodies and bend at the knees slightly. If it's hard on the knees, do it slower and use the barres for support."I didn't expect the kids to have a hard time after having done arabesques pretty well the last time we met. Well, I should not put myself on a high horse because I also found sautes a bit difficult the first time I tried them.They are kids. They needed time and care and I had the patience; but most were straining themselves and it was worrisome. Sending children home with strained muscles and throbbing joints was not on my to-do list."Remember the fluid, relaxed movements talk we had earlier," I said reminded."But we are not flexible enough," Whitney whined."You don't have to be flexible in ballet. It's an advantage but not a need. With enough practice, you'll be able to master the positions even though some of them need some degree of flexibility." I smiled

_KIMBERLY_I stared at the bookshelf in front of me and hummed in thought. Despite me coming to the nearest bookstore to buy some books, I had no idea of what books to get. I was here in hopes of finding a new hobby. I wasn't much of a reader but the internet told me that reading was a good way to pass time.Not wanting the usual experience of looking at my phone screen or laptop, I decided to buy a real life, paperback book and I felt damn proud of that idea. But here I was, at a loss of what to book to pick.Another reason why I came was to relax and get used to the environment. I wasn't new to this place but my past made it difficult to feel safe outside. Being with Oliver made me realize how lacking my life was. I left home to start afresh but I too caught up in my fears to realize that I was barely living.Also, I didn't want to depend on him too much so, I had to find reasons to leave the house that were not Oliver or work relate

_OLIVER_I stood in front of Kim's door with a bottle of wine and a bag of Chinese food in my hands. I didn't tell her that I was coming over nor did I tell her when I would arrive from my trip. Regardless of that, I hoped that this visit would not inconvenience her in any way.I rang the doorbell and waited nervously. It was already past 9pm and I figured that she must have been sleeping or preparing for bed. After a few minutes, the door opened and Kim stepped out. She was in a long, light pink rob and her hair fell down her right shoulder in thick, wet waves.Her eyes widened at the sight of me. "Oliver," she said with an amused smile. "You should've warned me. I'm just from taking a shower.""Surprise?" I said, more like asked, with a chuckle and her eyes dropped to the bottle of wine and the food in my hands. "I hope you haven't eaten yet."She laughed. "I haven't. I was about to cook something but I see that it won't be ne

_KIMBERLY_I held a pan tightly as I carefully flipped the pancake in it. My hair was tied in a messy bun and the only thing I wore was Oliver's shirt. I left him sleeping softly and I was glad that he didn't snore. Although that wouldn't make me like him less, I was a light sleeper so someone's snores could keep me up at night.I never thought that the great Oliver Woodling would be such a heavy sleeper and I expected him to be up before me. It was a struggle trying to untangle myself from his body without disturbing him but I figured that he was probably tired from his constant traveling.Last night was amazing and I cherished every moment that I spent with him. Waking up next to him was pretty amazing and it almost felt too good to be true. A part of me wondered if I was expecting too much from my relationship with him.What if he only wanted a fuck buddy? Was I overreacting by hoping for a long-term relationship? I shook my h

_KIMBERLY_It was a cool Tuesday evening and the air conditioning in the halls was warm. I clutched my cardigan tightly around me while I made my way out of the classroom and headed for the receptionist's desk."I guess it's time for me to call it a night, Wendy. Want to leave with me? I can give you a ride home," I said while putting today's register on her desk.She shook her head and offered an apologetic smile. "I still need to sort out the ledgers so, I will be staying a little longer.""I understand. With all the current renovations and projects going on, the work must be piling up. Please remember to take a break when you need to.""Regardless of the workload, you can rest assured that I've got it under control. By the way, I heard that you want a new floor to be built?""You heard right. It's getting crowded and I didn't expect other dancers to be interested in practicing here. Speaking of crowding, I hope that yo

_KIMBERLY_"Will you be staying with us forever?" Lora asked excitedly as she jumped on my bed."I don't know if I will be around for that long," I said after removing another bunch of folded clothes and packing them into the huge walk in closet at the end of the room.My room was amazing. The walls were a beautiful peach colour and near the large windows was a queen sized bed that had white and peach covers. There was a small, black mat in front of the bed and each nightstand had a lamp on top of it. At one end of the room was a small working space and at the other, an en suite bathroom."Bummer." Lora frowned and sat down. "It would be nice to have you here forever. Think about it, you'd probably marry Daddy and give me a baby sister-"I covered her mouth with my hand before she could go further. "I don't think that you should be thinking about that."She pushed my hand away. "Why not? It's pretty vali

_KIMBERLY_Before I knew it, a month had gone by with me living with the Woodlings and it was a great experience. I no longer came back to an empty and quiet apartment but a house that was lively and filled with love.When we could, we would eat breakfast together and share stories until it was time for us to leave. Dinner was my favourite part of the day because we hanged out peacefully without rushing to go anywhere. Oliver and I had turns concerning cooking and Lora would help out whenever she could.We felt like a family and I instantly lost myself being spoiled by Oliver. Our relationship was going great and we would occasionally sleep in each other's rooms. Waking up in his arms was a whole new level of happiness and I wished that this would truly last forever.Today was a free day and I didn't have any work. I got tired of watching TV and despite wanting to start a business course, I kept putting it off. I knew that I couldn't get an

Nothing could possibly go wrong... Or so they thought. Kimberly's death is way overdue and there is more than one person who agrees with this and is out to complete William's mission.

Being surrounded by the people who once shunned her, Kimberly doesn't know what to do or who to trust. Is Oliver going to manage to protect her once again or will her enemies finally achieve victory?

_KIMBERLY_I stirred in my sleep with a groan as I shifted my body slightly on the bed that I was sleeping on. My throat was dry and I felt like I was drowning in an abyss of darkness.I began to wonder what happened as I kept my eyes closed. The last thing that I remember was the sound of gun shots and the heavy footsteps that got louder as William got angrier. Did Oliver and the others manage to save me or did William get away with me?I could just open my eyes to know the answer. It was simple. That was sensible enough but I couldn't bring myself to do so. What if things didn't go according to plan? I did not want to be pushed into that harsh reality.William was never going to change. Knowing that saddened me but it made me stop hoping for it. During our conversation, he would twist my words in a way that made sense to him and I could see in his eyes that he truly hated me despite declaring his love.The gentle touch of cold

_OLIVER_ "How are her movements?" Detective Jun asked the other officer who came along with him. He hummed as he stared through the binoculars. "She's been standing there for a while." "They are probably waiting to see if someone is waiting for her." "Maybe, but we are too far to notice." He dropped the binoculars for a moment before looking through them again. "A car just parked a small distance from her." "Who's in the car?" I asked from the backseat. "Relax," Nick, the detective's co-worker, answered. "It's a blonde man." I hummed as I thought of anyone, except Ana, who was blonde. Detective Jun looked over his shoulder at me. "Are you sure about coming along?" I frowned. "I told you that I'm not going to stay home while this operation is going on." "You already have a broken arm. What will you do if something bad happens?" "We already went through those type of ques

_KIMBERLY_ I slowly opened my eyes with a loud groan. Everything was spinning and my head hurt. Sitting up, I took in my surrounding. My drowsiness immediately disappeared when I realized that I was in another place. I was in a small room with no windows. The walls were painted with dark grey paint and despite not being tied up, my joints felt strained. I sat up and stretched. How long was I out? I looked around the room and noticed a camera on the corner of the ceiling. "You're finally awake." William's voice echoed in the tiny space. "You've been out for two hours." "Where am I?" I asked with a frown. "Some place somewhere. Details shouldn't be that important to you." "Asshole." He laughed. "It's funny because you still don't realize the position that you are in even now." "You said that you would hear me out. Why are you breaking your word again?" "I'm sorry, Rose, I

_KIMBERLY_"Interesting," Detective Jun said as he looked at my phone, that lay on the table in front of him.Oliver and I invited him over to talk about the phone call that I had received from William last night. As agreed, I recorded the entire conversation. Now, we were all seated in the living room as I played the recording.Things were becoming dangerous so, Oliver sent Lora to stay with Olivia while we tried to get things under control. I sat next to him and his hand was over my shoulders while the detective sat across from us."What do you think?" Detective Jun asked me. "Is it worth it?""Of course, it is. I don't want any harm to come to the people around me," I answered, feeling insulted that he questioned the worth of the situation."Then what do you want to do?""I want to do whatever I can to ensure the safety of everyone including myself.""Do you want this man behind bars?""Of course.

_KIMBERLY_My body trembled as Oliver increased his pace. I moaned softly as he went deeper into me and my grip around his neck tightened. Oliver was seated on the bed as I sat on top of him.Our bodies faced each other as we moved together. Oliver's breath was hot against my chest and I panted as I leaned into him more. My mind was hazy and all my attention was where he pleasured me.He reached out and fondled my chest with his hand. A small whimper left my lips and I leaned down to kiss him. Our lips moved roughly against each other as as we pleased ourselves and I moaned loudly when my body reached its peak.My body slumped against Oliver as I tried to catch my breath. Oliver's hand dropped to my thighs as he caressed them softly while we both calmed down.I held his shoulders and pushed myself away from him. He stared at me with a goofy smile that I couldn't help but laugh. What a weird face to make after sex.

_KIMBERLY_I looked around the cafe that we agreed to meet detective Jun and saying that I was anxious was an understatement. This little cafe was warm and peaceful. The place had a cute nature design and it was filled with people, showing me that it was a popular place.Despite the soft atmosphere mixed with the sounds of conversation that was going about, these two things made me even more restless. This place was filled with people. What if William sent someone to spy on me?Oliver rested his hand on top of mine and I looked at him. "Are you okay?" he asked.I gave him a small, nervous smile and replied, "I'm not.""Still feeling nervous?""Yeah. I can't help but feel like I'm doing something wrong.""Sometimes we need more than our own strength to get things done. He's been tyrannizing you for too long and he needs to be stopped.""I understand that, but my family is on the line." I let out a deep sigh. "I don

_KIMBERLY_I was going to meet a detective and talk about my problems with William with him.I laughed softly. I couldn't believe it.I had to talk about something that I have failed to take to the authorities no matter how many times I thought about it. It made me relieved though. It gave me a certain sense of freedom, but at the same time, it scared me.William always found out things about me as though he has been watching. I almost feel like he is watching my every move. What if he finds out that I'm talking to detective Jun and he attacks me directly?I didn't want more blood on my hands and I was tired of carrying every burden of blame that he put on my shoulders.Despite my fear, the thought of having him behind bars made me hopeful. This was a gamble that could either make things better or make them worse. A gamble that literally had my life depending on it.Oliver had a talk with the detective earlier and they o

_KIMBERLY_I parked my car in the parking lot of Lora's school and leaned back into my chair with a heavy sigh. I was late. There were barely any cars in the parking lot and I was anxious about Lora's reaction to this after I had insisted on picking her up this morning.It was all Oliver's fault!"Let's take a short nap," he said."I'll wake you up so don't worry," he said.What was supposed to be a short nap would have kept us in bed until the evening if it wasn't for one of the maids, who called Oliver to ask for another day off, hadn't woken us up.I got out of the car and locked the door before walking into the building. I didn't know where to start looking for her so I peeked into every class I passed through.I kept reminding myself to calm down because I was only twenty minutes late and it could have been worse."Excuse me," a man called and I turned to face a short, slim man with brown hair. "Are you
