TYLERI was in my personal office, seated at my desk , my mind consumed by thoughts of Daniel Andrew's daughter. She was seemingly impossible to detect, an enigma, a female shrouded in absolute mystery. Despite my best efforts, despite the efforts of my abled men, with their best techs and all, I couldn't uncover any additional information about her or her family, than the ones I have already - worse still, there was nothing more about that bodyguard of hers - Sebastian. It was as if she had appeared out of thin air, leaving no trace of her past behind as Booker Greyson, and Sebastian had helped her delete it with his own.I even looked into the debt she said her father was owing and the amount baffled me. How did Daniel Andrew end up owing so much? The company must have hit its end at the beginning of the first two years of its establishment, yet, it thrived for a whole while, with loans and personal savings. I wonder how Daniel was able to keep his daughters, perform his duties as a
THEAI woke up with a smile creased across my face, there was a feeling and sense of accomplishment and happiness. The previous day had been quite eventful, as I had managed to sabotage Tyler's business in a day and put it on the brink of failure. With just few taps, I was able to bring everything down in minutes. This was exactly how Tyler destroyed my family in just one day. I was proud of myself for being able to sabotage his bussiness in such a significant way. However, my joy was short-lived as I remembered sleeping with Tyler's friend. It was a momentary lapse in judgment, driven by my desire for revenge.Somehow, I hated myself for doing that. and regret washed over me ike a tidal wave. I had slept with Tyler's friend, a man I barely knew, convincing myself it was an act of revenge. I knew I would have to risk my body to get my revenge on Tyler Blackwood and this was just the starting point, I was going far because Tyler must be completely destroyed. As I closed my eyes for a
THEAI couldn't believe my eyes when I saw Tyler sitting there in our living room like I got at least a dollar from him to get the chair. My heart started racing, and before I knew it, anger consumed me. How could Cora let him in without even giving me a heads up? Especially after everything he had done in the past. I felt betrayed, hurt, and furious all at once. I felt like she wasn't on my side.She was cleaning the mess when I stormed towards her, my voice trembling with anger. "Cora! What were you thinking? How could you let Tyler into our house without telling me first? You even let him sit, Cora, you entertained him."Cora looked taken aback by my outburst, but she quickly regained her composure, dropping the mop. "Thea, calm down. I didn't think it was a big deal. Tyler just wanted to talk, you know.""Just wanted to talk? Don't you have any idea what he's done?" I scoffed, unable to hide my disbelief. "You know damn well what he's capable of by what he had done to us. After e
THEAI had hoped the day would be productive considering the embarrassing events of yesterday. I had just taken my bath and it was refreshing, I walked out of the bathroom feeling fulfilled as ever. There were many things to worry about, but I chose to be sane today. I had learned that thinking about negativity affected the positive nature of things, I just had to accept things for what they were. My favourite people surrounded me and there was nothing more someone like me could possibly want. Except revenge of course. I still had that at the back of my mind. My phone started ringing, so I walked over to pick it up. Unknown caller? I hoped it wasn't one of father's misdemeanors again. I couldn't take care of anymore of his mistakes."Who is this?" I asked again, my breathing shaky with increased anticipation of who the caller might be.The caller said nothing. I waited for some seconds and asked again."Who is this?" I screamed this time, my uneven breathing patterns very much obvious
Tyler's PovFirst sip, second sip, third sip until I could sip no more. I placed the cup on the table and took a deep sigh.I can't explain the way I feel lately - in a more correct way, I couldn't understand the way I felt since Thea came back to Manhattan. All I think of was her and even when I want to be mean to her, the way she will look at me reminds me of the night I had her moaning my name. Now, this isn't about sex, thoughts of her just filled my head. It's like a wild rollercoaster ride inside my head rolling to infinity. Thoughts of her face consumed me, weaving through my mind like a never-ending maze. I found myself daydreaming about being with her, wishing I could hold her close and whisper sweet things into her ear. It's a strange sensation, one that I never thought I'd experience, I must have started this experience that night.But why wouldn't I think of her? She is the epitome of beauty, grace, and intelligence. Every time I see her, my heart skips a beat, and my mind
TYLERAfter he left, I went to the toilet to wash his blood off my hands. I looked myself in the mirror and realizes there was a little truth in what he said. Why was I so upset?Thea wasn't here so she was not going to see me fighting for her, she was just going to believe I told everyone. And even if I didn't, she'd hate me nonetheless. I punched the glass and it shattered on the floor. I needed a drink. I walked out and slammed the door hard, not caring about the consequences.I walked to the bar in a desperate attempt to clear my head, if I had to walk around with all this anger; I would end up breaking more than just glass. Probably Magnus's head.Grabbing a bottle of tequila from the cupboard and a shot cup, I took my seat at the bar and loosened my tie. If there was a word was than rage, that was exactly what I was feeling right now. How dare he? He really had some guts walking into my office to spew all of that rubbish."I slipped out information that," his words kept on repla
THEAI couldn't believe my eyes when I steeped into the large hall; my idea of a party was grand but not this grand. The hall was packed full of different people and personalities, some big ones I had been looking forward to working with and every other person I could think of. It was really crazy how it was almost impossible to walk freely in the huge space, Sebastian must have really outdone himself.Suddenly, a little bit of fear came over new. How would I face such huge crowd? Was I deserving of their audience? Would they listen to me? Why were they even here for me? All these questions kept swirling around in my head and my palms began to get sweaty.I mentally checked myself out recalling the reflection I had seen in the mirror earlier. Every person here was dressed to kill and my mind played games with me as to if I really fit in here.Cora had picked out a fitted but loose, corporate but a bit sexy red gown for me going on all about how it really suited my skin tone and I look
TYLERDressed in one of my best Tuxedos, I set out for the party with flowers in hand. Magnus had gotten rose flowers delivered to my doorstep and a part of me couldn't help but wonder if she really liked rose flowers or if this was another trick by Magnus. If it was, I would no doubt break one of Magnus's legs. I got into my car, the one I drove around myself, and headed to the location sent to me.All through the ride, I couldn't take my mind off the fact that this was a party for business Tycoons yet I, the biggest bird, didn't even hear about it. I felt insulted to say the least and the truth was gnawing in my stomach that Thea was eventually going to take the crown from me. She was growing at such an exceptional rate while I was here dealing with issues everyday with her on my mind. I couldn't blame her though, I deserved it; everything.****"The splash hall," the sign read, I had arrived at the venue. I pulled into an empty parking space, the last one; every other space was occ
