Zayden

I stepped on the gas; the faster I got home, the better. I had turned the mirror away from her or I might end up running into a tree.

Her white dress was lying on the passenger seat beside me, which only meant she was in nothing but her underwear. The thought of her half-naked made heat rise to my ears.

From the first day, I laid my eyes on her when she bumped into me, her red hair and freckles caught my attention.

I won't lie to myself, I'd been attracted to her since then, but I masked it every day with my usual cold and indifferent personality.

I don't do love, but I sure as hell want her in my bed. Her little snores filled the silence as I drove down the highway.

It took twenty minutes to finally arrive at my house and then I was faced with another problem - Getting her out of the car.

She was half naked, assuming I was a gentleman, I should show her some respect and not sneak glances at her body. But I'm the complete opposite, every nerve in

    Lillian The throbbing pain woke me up. I knew this pain all too well.Hangover.This was why I hated drinking. The only thing I remembered was sipping more glass of that delicious wine than an average person should and now it feels like my head was about to fall off. I sat up and took in my surroundings. This wasn't my room, my room was three times smaller than this. This place was screaming luxury. I don't know where I was or whose house this was.There was only one way to find out. Trudging towards the door, I came across a lobby. It was spacious and grey. The tile was pitch black. Whoever lived here loved dull colours. I kept walking till I found myself in the kitchen.“ you're finally awake ?” The hair on my back stood erect as the voice filled my eardrums.Slowly I turned to meet my boss. He was wearing a plain t-shirt and grey sweatpants. He looked different, he looked extra handsome. His muscles clung to the shirt like magnets. He raised a brow, a sly smile on his

    LillianMy life changed for the worse after we kissed. Zayden kissed me. Yes, he kissed me. And this was how it happened. I came to work that day in a good mood, Aiden had dropped me off that morning and zoomed off. We had a nice conversation, and I laughed a lot. I came into the office to meet a frowning boss.“He's dropping you off now? ” he had hissed at me as soon as I stepped in.“umm, well it was a kind gesture .” I don't even know why I was explaining myself. I don't need to.He got up and closed the distance between us.“He has been driving you home every day and dropping you off, is that what you call a kind gesture.”He seemed irritated, more like jealous.“well, yes.” I shrugged.He raised a brow, obviously not convinced.“what's your deal anyway? There's nothing wrong with your brother driving me home.” I furrowed my brows. Maybe if he had been nicer then he would be the one driving me home. He placed both hands on the wall behind me, our bodies merely inches apart

    Lillian Helena didn't leave immediately, she stood behind the closed door.I was already at my desk, my face burning like Furnace. I was so embarrassed; what made me think office romance was romantic?“ I'm just here to tell you, Mr Kent, that the board members are requesting you submit the project today for review.” She yelled behind the door and then the clacking of her heels indicated she had just left.Zayden remained unfazed like we didn't just do something obscene. “you're done, right? Lillian.” He asked walking over to me.I shuddered as he said my name.“ yes, everything is ready.” I packed up the files we had been working on for almost a week now and handed them to him. “Good luck.” I gave him a small smile.For the first time, he smiled. That small gesture almost took my breath away. I never knew he was this handsome, coupled with that bubbling feeling in my belly.“if this works out, I might double your pay.” He spoke cooly.“Might?” I snorted.“ I deserve a trip to Pa

    Lilian I cried myself to sleep. When I woke up, it was almost dark outside.I had missed calls and messages from Zayden, but I was too scared to open them. He was getting married, I should have known. It shouldn't hurt this much , I had zero feelings for him but I didn't understand why it felt like my chest was on fire. Like I was deceived and used. He called and kept calling and I just watched it ring. He texted asking where I was and why I left. I switched off my phone ,not being able to stare at the caller's ID.I felt numb, my eyes hurt. I didn't want to even think about where I go from here. It was as good as saying I was now jobless. The only thing that made me smile was when I received a credit alert. My first salary.I went to bed on an empty stomach and waited for sleep to drown me.A knock on the door caught my attention. At first, I panicked but then remembered that only Aiden knew where I lived."Mr Finn?” I felt my stomach roil. Why would my landlord come to

    Lillian"Where have you been, Lillian? Why did you leave the office? What's going on?" Aiden yelled from the other end of the phone. As expected, the news that I was a whore had spread like wildfire.“ I'm at my house.” I couldn't help it, my voice broke.He must have sensed something was wrong." Are..are you okay?“ I sniffed, tears beginning to cloud my vision. " Are you crying? What's wrong?” I swallowed the lump in my throat." Can you come over to my place? Please.” There was a pause." Well, yeah. I'll be on my way.”I whispered a thank you before ending the call. He arrived sooner than expected and I was already with my luggage outside waiting for him. "What happened?" He yelled as soon as he saw my swollen eyes.I gave him a fake smile." I got kicked out." He looked from my luggage and back to me. He reached forward, placing his hands on my face."Your face, why is it red and your forehead? Did someone hurt you?” Great! I had completely forgotten that I had a br

    Zayden I watched as he pulled over and then opened the door for her like the perfect gentleman.Bloody bastard!My blood was boiling; I was itching to punch something, preferably his face.She smiled at him. She was wearing a blue body con dress. It hugged her figure perfectly. I knew she did this on purpose even after I told her not to let Aiden drop her off.From where I stood watching them on the second floor I could see Aiden run his eyes over her body, over my body.Mine, she was mine.I don't know how it started, but after I gave in to my cravings and kissed her, I started craving more of her.She smiled. She shouldn't smile if I wasn't the cause. The first thing I noticed was the light purple spot on her cheek and forehead.I watched the footage yesterday, and I saw what Sage and Oliver did to her. I made him bleed a little, I only broke his nose. That was the least of what I was going to do to him. As for sage,I sighed. My dad was furious that my secretary put her i

    Zayden Nothing was more frustrating than her silence. She had refused to talk to me for five days straight and just stared into space while I tried to get her attention. It was more frustrating to watch her leave with Aiden every single day and watch them come to work together. God! I felt like killing him.He always had this mocking scowl on his face. I had to control myself not to confront them both or I might make her more mad. I knew she was doing this on purpose but I didn't like my reaction. I shouldn't be jealous; it was just a ride; they wouldn't be doing anything else, right? Yes, I knew I fucked up, but here I was trying to make it right, but she won't stop giving me the cold shoulder.It was a lot easier to convince a client to sign a contract than to convince a woman to stop being mad at you. I haven't given her any workload, I made Helena do all of it. After all, it was her fault Sage got to hear of our make-out session. So basically, she only came to work

    Zayden Spank her.Finger fuck her.Eat her cunt like it was a desert.Choke her and take her from behind.And many more lewd suggestions from Google.As if she'd let me touch her. I'd gone no day without fantasizing about her underneath me in my bed. In the end, I had to call Oliver. He suddenly had difficulties making the muscles on his face stop extending his lips into a grin."Wipe that grin off your face or I'll do it for you." I breathed, irritation ticking my jaw.His grin only widened." From now on I'll be your love coach." "Fuck off! We are not on good terms." There was a dim in his expression for a moment but then his grin was back on."Now listen carefully and do exactly as I say if you want to win her back." He spoke with a hint of pride.And he told me what to do. I almost did the face slap. Why didn't I think of it earlier? Of course, women loved flowers and sweet little talks.I spent the next hour staring at the note Oliver had given me. He says to memorize the wor

    Zayden I pulled the trigger as fast as I could, aiming at his hand holding the remote control. It flew out of his hand, a hole appearing on his palm. He grunted loudly, clutching the hand I just shot. If I had delayed for a second I'd probably be ashes by now. I trudged over to where the remote control was and picked it up, tucking it safely in my pocket. There's no way I'm letting him have it again. I stared at him on the floor, blood dripping down his hand and neck. I could end it right now and not be accountable for it. The cops had given me the go-ahead; I was doing this city a good if I shut him in the head right now, but what I didn't get was why the fuck I was holding back. I cursed silently, something was wrong. I could feel it, something was wrong with me. I placed my finger on the trigger and urged every fibre of muscle in my body to pull it, but I couldn't. He noticed my resistance." What's the matter? Don't want to get more blood on your hands." " Shut the

    Zayden Ahh fuck! Fuck! I knew this was a bad idea from the start. I knew I was making a big mistake. We should have just waited for him to come to us, now we were stuck in the middle of nowhere with that bastard having the upper hand. Lillian stiffened; she didn't as much as moving a muscle. " I'm not going to repeat myself, Zayden. Disarm yourself." His voice echoed again. I scanned the room quickly as I reached for the revolver at the back of my pants. It was pretty dark here, and my best guess was that he was sitting in the hallway, which was directly opposite us. We can't see him but he can see us. I placed the revolver on the floor. He chuckled again."I know you're not dumb enough to come with just a revolver. If you don't want your pretty little wife swimming in a pool of her own blood, then take everything out!" I hesitated, and then my eyes fell on Lillian. He might actually shoot her so I brought out the knife I had in my pants and dropped it on the floor. " Th

    Lillian "I haven't told you my story, at least not all of it yet," Zayden spoke as we snuggled in bed. I ended up giving him a blow job after I got out of the bathroom. I only did that because, well he kind of seduced me. I didn't even realise I was already sucking his dick until I started choking. Sigh. That's what you get for marrying a perv and then that perv influenced you and corrupted your sweet little soul. " Are there still more stories to tell?" I pulled the covers so that we were both covered to our necks. " Not really but I might have left out a tiny detail." " What is it?" He turned to face me, his grey eyes boring into mine." My birth name is Reign, not Zayden." My pupils dilated. I remembered Aiden mentioned something of this sort." What? But Zayden is what everyone knows you as." He traced his fingers along my cheekbone." Yeah. My father changed the name on my birth certificate. It was around that time he locked me up. According to him, it would make it ea

    Lillian. I know, I know. I no longer have a flat tummy, and it was now filled with stretch marks coupled with a few scars that I had. " No, don't." Zayden breathed, walking over to me." Don't cover yourself up from me ever again." I couldn't meet his eyes. For a brief moment, I thought he would no longer find me attractive. I had stared at the mirror a couple of times; the pregnancy left a ton of stretch marks and my belly had only reduced in size a little. The doctor said it might not go away completely, but it would reduce to a considerable amount. As for the stretch marks, there are various essential oils I could use on them. " You are still the most beautiful woman I have ever set my eyes on. Those marks are a symbol of your strength; they are beautiful." He knelt down and placed a kiss on my belly. "And I don't mind if you never get a flat tummy back. Bitter truth? You won't" He raised an amused eyes to look up at me. I snarled." You were supposed to make me feel bette

    Lillian. A few days later after Zayden was discharged and we went to visit Brenda again. This time she welcomed us warmly. I'm a woman so I know when a fellow woman is trying so hard to mask her emotions. I could see the eye bags under her eyes. I could sense the sorrow and grief she was trying so hard to hide. She probably had been thinking about how she was going to raise that little boy on her own. " What's his name?" I asked as I sat down on the couch with Zayden sitting beside me. The little boy was shy, as he kept hiding behind his mother. I got a good look at him once when Brenda pulled him to sit properly on the couch. He looked so much like Falco. " His name is Frederick." She replied a warm smile on her face. " Hi, Frederick." I gave the kid a playful smile. He lifted his small hand and waved at me. He didn't utter a word and just hid his face behind his mother's hand. " He's very shy around strangers," Brenda noted. It was cute though. "I came to thank you again.

    Lillian I pressed myself up against his chest so tightly that I heard him groan. " I know you missed me but You are going to reopen my wound." He breathed on my cheek. I shifted back immediately, my face wet from tears." Zayden!" I whimpered, my voice echoing in the room." I thought you were going to die, I thought you left me. You died!" He wrapped his hands around me." I did, but then I had a nightmare that ten years later, you remarried a blonde fucker and forgot about me. No way in hell am I letting that happen." I heard Oliver chuckle in the background, I couldn't help but laugh." Why did you do that again...you shouldn't have stepped in." He rolled his eyes." Are you seriously asking me that?" He placed both hands on my face, caressing my cheeks." I'll do anything for you even if it means dying." I burst into another round of tears as my heart warmed up. The relief I felt right now was so overwhelming. " You're weak, you wouldn't have survived it. And I have my child

    Lillian As soon as I got to the house, I contacted Oliver. He arrived sooner than expected then I handed him the recorder. I had secretly recorded my conversation with Aiden and now this was enough proof that he was responsible for my kidnapping. "Wow, I've got to hand it to you." Jade praised. I blushed." I just couldn't sit back and do nothing." " I'm still surprised he blurted it all out just like that." Oliver added." Maybe he is as dumb as sage after all." " This should be enough right?" I asked Oliver but he only sighed. " It should be but this was Aiden we were dealing with. For him to freely confess right in front of you, then it means he has backup. And then his father would also back him up. Bringing him down wouldn't be easy, especially with just this recording as our only evidence." Jade sighed heavily, collapsing on the couch in the living room." If only there was a witness then this would have been a lot easier." I crunched up my nose, my mind running over s

    Lillian Two weeks later... Zayden still hasn't woken up but the doctors said he was doing better. We should be expecting him to open his eyes any moment from now. Meanwhile Jade and I had done some research for baby girl names. She had suggested something rare and unique like Iris, Calisa and Salomi. But, honestly, I won't be picking a name without Zayden. Noah came to visit, and when I finally got discharged, he followed me to the new safe house Zayden bought before he went to prison. Oliver hired more bodyguards around the house, and I had at least two of them following me everywhere. Tyrell attempted to get close to me once, but once again he slipped away before the cops or my bodyguards could catch him. He finally sent me the location and time for our meeting. He requested I come meet him in Denver alone ten days from now and I was to come unarmed. He was stupid if he thought I would follow his orders. So right now, preparations were being made by the cops since I was t

    Lillian. For the first time, I prayed to God. This was beyond me now. Tyrell was giving me a very hard choice. At this point, I don't know if I should be scared or not. " What do you want with me!" I dared ask, while trying to stall hoping a nurse would walk in. "What do I want with you? I'm obsessed with you, Lily." He brushed a hand on my cheek. " I'm obsessed with the way you whimper when I hurt you. The way your face crinkles when I cut across your skin with my knife. The way you stare out the window hoping to get freedom. The way you tremble when I'm around you. You grew up with me, you should be obsessed with me by now. I saved you from death. I took you in when everyone abandoned you, you should be grateful." I stared at him in disbelief." Took me in?" I scoffed." I was no better than a prisoner. You took advantage of me when I was at my lowest." I raised my voice a little hoping that someone outside would send the distress in my voice. He's worse than a monster. How c
