“You have really brought your bag?” Haven asked when she saw Lucas getting his bag from her car. She knew she was the one who said to him to get some spare clothes if he was going to stay back at her place. But little did she know that he would really come back prepared.
Lucas smirked at Haven’s expression, “Of course. How can I not when you said it yourself.”
He walked past her towards her house, “Come soon,” she heard him saying.
The bright light from the sun had peeked into everyone’s life. Just like any other mornings, the roads were filled with the early birds jogging, and shops opening.In the background played a song from the late 80s along with a light breeze syncing with it. Young people barely listen to any classics. But she does. Haven Miles.Haven Miles was a 25-year-old, working as an editor at a publishing company. She was a young lady with a seemingly lean figure and had wonderful assets which will make her look outstanding among the people with loads of artificial. Haven was too pure to anyone’s interest. She believed in simplicity and led her life in the same way.Haven is the only child for her parents. They live in Chicago and Haven in New York. She moved to the new city when she got the job. After all, it was her dream job. She loves stories: written, read, and watched. She just loves them. Period.Haven had woken up early today since it was a very sp
Haven stood near the doorway, dumbstruck. She didn’t know what was happening to her! She got back to her senses when someone shakes her by her shoulder. She looks at him, expressionless.James, her boyfriend of 3 years and lover, was having early morning sex with his colleague on his bed. Haven couldn’t believe her eyes. She hoped this was a bad dream.He downright cheated on her.Haven looked around his room. Their clothes and accessories were discarded everywhere on the floor. The woman, Ashley, with whom her boyfriend was having sex with, was still on his bed, naked. She made no efforts to cover her bareness.“Haven,” James whispered.Haven turned to him and said one thing, “We’re done.”She left his apartment immediately grabbing her bag. He could only follow her until his door because of his nakedness.All the tears she had held until she came out of his place, rolled down like waterfalls
“Stop crying, Sweetheart,” Mrs. Morgan tried to calm down Haven.Haven had been crying since this morning when she came across a situation where she had to tell Mrs. Morgan everything that had happened yesterday.At first, Mrs. Morgan didn’t believe what Haven said. Because the James she had known was a totally different man. He loved Haven and had plans for their future. This was abrupt.“He hurt me, Mrs. Morgan. I loved him so much,” Haven cried.Mrs. Morgan handed her a tissue to wipe her tears. That’s what she has been doing since morning. She couldn’t stop this young girl crying herself to tiredness.“I know, Haven, you loved him. But what can you do now? The milk has been spilled, it’s gone. Unless you want to…” her words were cut off. “No… no way in hell I would be with him again.”“Fine, then. Move on from him.”Haven had fresh te
Waking up to someone banging on your door isn’t ideal for anybody. It’s the same for Haven.She opens the door to an overly dressed Olivia. Olivia had worn black jeans and a flashy top matched with sneakers. Hair neatly styled and make-up, up to the mark.While Haven wore her flower printed pajama that was wrinkled every inch and hair nested and cocooned.“What’s your problem?” Haven asked, sitting on the couch, drawing her knees up to lay her head.“You.” Olivia pointed at Haven, walking inside.“What?” Haven asked slightly annoyed and confused.“You said you will be at work the next day. Now it’s been a week since you walked into the office building. I almost thought you died or something happened again,” Olivia said, pinching Haven’s cheeks.“Aw… don’t do that.” Haven rubbed her cheeks.“Come on. Let’s go out at
“Haven?” Olivia called.“I’m fine, Oly. Don’t worry. Just drop me to my home,” Haven replied and leaned onto the car window.Now they were in their car, going back home. After the revelation from Ashley, Haven was dumbstruck. She couldn’t process what she had just heard. Even Olivia was left speechless. Neither of them thought James would even say that about Haven to anybody.Olivia felt extremely bad for Haven for going through all of this shit. She had nothing to mak
Haven stood in her closet with the only towel draped around her body. She was confused about what to wear. It was her first time visiting a BDSM club. She had no idea what to expect about the club. She only knew she wants to know about BDSM and indulge in it and spice up her sex life.At last, after digging her closet for half an hour, she chose a solid black fit and flare dress. She did her makeup pretty bold and matched her look with high heels. She looked into the mirror. The girl in the mirror looked so much unlike her. But that didn’t matter to her now.She turned around and walked out of her house.
The bright sun peeked into the room and onto Haven’s face. She opened her eyes slightly and looked around the room. She felt like she wasn’t familiar with this environment. She was quick to get up and take down her surrounding.A sudden flash of yesterday night’s events came to her mind. For a moment, she thought she had a one night stand with the man with whom she had left the club.But she was fully clothed. So that didn’t make sense to her. Why would anyone dress up the girl with whom he had a one night stand with?
The night after they exited the club.The man dragged Haven out of the club despite her whining for another drink. He knew better. She was drunk already and he couldn’t risk anything.The bouncer from earlier noticed them and smiled at the man. “Such a brat.”The man smirked and replied, “Yup!”He dragged Haven to his car and made her get ins
“You have really brought your bag?” Haven asked when she saw Lucas getting his bag from her car. She knew she was the one who said to him to get some spare clothes if he was going to stay back at her place. But little did she know that he would really come back prepared.Lucas smirked at Haven’s expression, “Of course. How can I not when you said it yourself.”He walked past her towards her house, “Come soon,” she heard him saying.
After the mission was successful, the team reached their office and the people in their custody were locked in cells until the paper works are done to take them to the court.Lucas got off work immediately after they reached the office, it was pretty late at night. He got into Haven’s car and drove towards her home. He could not wait to reach her home. It was the first time someone was waiting for his arrival at home at the end of the day. He could not wait to see Haven’s reaction when she sees that he has come with a bag. Although she had said it herself, Lucas still wanted to see her reaction about the deal getting real.
Lucas dropped Haven off at her office building and drove towards his house to have a quick shower and change of clothes before going to his workplace. He felt full at heart for some reason. He wondered if it was because of the good night’s sleep or was it because he had been having a hearty breakfast for two continuous days or was Haven alone that was making him feel full and complete.He unlocked his house door and entered. He looked around the place only to find it a little untidy. He had not stayed back at his home for two nights and it was already messy. He suddenly remembered Haven’s words before she exited the car at her workplace, Bring some spare clothes if you are staying back at my place again. Uninte
“What are we buying?” Haven asked Olivia when they reached the mall. Olivia had recently moved into a new home and still had tons of things to unpack and do a makeover to the place. She wanted to buy some new stuff, so she had dragged Haven along with her to shop for them after the office hours.“Two sets of quilts and comforters, Table clothes, artificial plants and grass, candle holders and three lanterns and also a portable table and…,” Olivia named a few and tried to remember more.“You will remember more when you look around,” Haven said making Olivia
Sunlight peeped into Haven’s room. She stirred in her bed and felt a pair of hands holding close enough to his heart. Suddenly reality hit her. She turned around in a swift and saw Lucas. He was peacefully asleep in her bed, holding her close to him. Now that she had some time and Lucas was asleep, she spent her time to trace her finger tip on Lucas’ face and inspect him thoroughly. She noticed that he had a small mark on his jaw and a few scratch marks on his face, right below his left eye. She wondered how did he get them.“If you are done scanning my face, please let me know,” Lucas said, his eyes still closed.
When Haven realized they had reached her home, she looked at Lucas and thought if she should invite him. After two thoughts, she spoke, “Do you want to come in?”“Yes. I have fallen for you,” he whispered the last word.“Huh?” She was sure that she had heard him correctly.“I have fallen for your food. I hope you will feed me some,” he rubbed his stomach with his hands to explain with actions.
“Is he the guy who left your house this morning?” Haven heard Olivia’s voice from behind.Haven had totally forgotten that she was still at the office and Lucas had visited him here.She closed her eyes and held the edge of her skirt tightly. She can swear she heard Lucas and Olivia snort at her action.She slowly turned to Olivia and smiled, “He is Lucas. My..”
Haven knocked on her boss, Ms. Harris’ cabin door. She was asked to meet her boss by the assistant.“Come in,” Haven heard from inside. She opened the door inwardly and entered the cabin.Ms. Harris was a very well organized person. Her work table had no hint of dirt and no personal things except for her mobile phone.“Please have a seat, Haven,” Ms. Harris pointed the chair in front of her desk. Haven nodded and did as she was told.
Haven wasn’t really shocked to see Olivia in her workplace. It was expected of Olivia to wait for her friend for a few reasons. One, could be for a morning greeting. Two, could be that Mrs. Morgan had filled in about the guy who left Haven's house in the morning.Haven slightly smiled at Olivia, “Hey, Oly.”Olivia turned the chair to see Haven, looking as fresh and pleasant anyone could look. There was a hint of glow and blush on her cheeks.“Wassp?” Olivia blew her nails. It seem
