Lillian "I'm having a flow, the type that happens monthly." I said clearing my throat not to look awkward. He dipped his hands in his pockets, straightening his stance. " You'll have to use more words, Mrs Ace ." I swallowed ,wishing the ground would open up and swallow me. " And please get up from the floor!" He scolded. As much as I wanted to, I couldn't because I was a thousand per cent sure that the white towel was stained. From the pain in my lower abdomen, I could tell I was leaking like my kitchen sink ."I...I...can't ". " You can't?... Mrs ace, do I have to remind you that we have a lot of work to do ?" I looked up to meet his stare; our eyes locked for a moment until his eye trailed down to my chest. I did my best to assume that he didn't just look at my boobs." You don't understand, I really can't ". I told him, a worried expression plastered on my face. "Then make me understand and do it quickly!" His eyes were still on my boobs. How can he still keep a

Zayden I was beginning to think maybe I should just dismiss her. Dealing with women was more exhilarating than with men. If I hadn't knocked then she probably wouldn't have come out. Even now she still had spent almost 10mins in the bathroom. I sighed heavily and set myself to work. I'll just lay the groundwork today and then begin properly tomorrow. And that's why I need extra hands, editing the template wouldn't be easy. Just then, she finally came out of the bathroom. The image of her wrapped in my towel suddenly flashed before my eyes. I had to shake my head to clear my mind of those thoughts. Standing in front of me, fidgeting with her dress, she spoke, " Umm, Mr Kent, thank you for the umm....stuff". My eyes went to her chest, something I found hard to stop doing since I saw her cleavage. "Get to work, start with editing the files I sent to you !" I said coldly. She stood there for a while before turning to walk away but paused. "Umm, is it alright to ask

Lillian There was no way I'd back down. One thing I hate is being aware of something bad and doing nothing about it. And now this jerk of a boss was too hard-headed to listen to opinions from others. I had to hold my breath as he cornered me. "You're saying that I made a mistake?" His voice was hoarse. I had to turn my face sideways or I would feel his breath on my face. "You're not Jesus, Mr Kent. So, yes you made a mistake". I told him.I could feel the anger emanating from him." If you'll just hear me out maybe you'll understand why you'll get rejected." I watched him grit his teeth, struggling to make a decision. "Fine, but if this proves to be a waste of time then you're fired ".I raised my chin, confident of what I was doing, or at least I thought so.He finally stepped away, returning to his desk. I could finally breathe properly. I cleared my throat, placing the iPad right in front of his face. " Well, the issue is your product is directed at the wrong audience

Lillian "Thanks for driving me !" I waved at Aiden. "I could wait till you're done getting ready and then drop you off ." He spoke, getting out of the car. "Oh...no, it's fine . You've done enough". He faked a frown. " You don't want to invite me in ?" "I don't want to take your time; it's still early . I'm sure you have other things to do ". If only he knew I wanted him gone because I was too ashamed of where I lived. I know I shouldn't be; some people were homeless, but still, this was my boss's brother. I didn't want him to think any less of me. He remained silent for a few seconds. " Alright, I'll take a ride and be back in an hour. How about that ?" I chuckled. At least I'll get to save money so why refuse the offer?" Alright then, see you in an hour". He nodded and drove off. I ran to my apartment hoping Jade hadn't gone to work yet. I missed her call yesterday because my phone was on silent. The door was open, indicating she was still in. I breathed in relief as

Lillian " Oh, it seems like your boss's brother is here ", Jade said, pulling us apart. My eyes darted to the clock on the wall. It wasn't even an hour yet, so why was he here so soon?" Oh shit, I haven't even had my bath yet!" Jade rolled her eyes "Relax, Lily, we are not even sure if it's him. It might be the neighbours or maybe someone else. I'll go check". She left the next second and was back in a jiffy. "It's Nico, he's here to pick me up. I'll see you later, Lily." She squealed.And just like that. She picked up her bag and exited the room. I didn't even get the chance to ask when she was moving out.Just then, my phone made a beep sound. I picked it up to see a text from the almighty Mr Stone's face. He was requesting that I dress properly for the conference at 3:00 p.m.I rolled my eyes; if the conference was at 3:00 p.m., then why did I have to go to work before 10. Considering that I had worked overnight. Sighing, I went into the bathroom to have a bath, after which I

Lillian."Mrs Ace, are you sure you have something suitable to wear?". He said taking a turn on 9th street. We were 10 minutes from where I lived." Well, yes ".He glanced at me and then back at the road ahead. " If this turns out to be a waste of time, I'm subtracting 20 dollars from your pay ". I swallowed." It's that black dress I wore on my second day ". The car immediately came to a halt and if I wasn't wearing a seatbelt, my head would have crashed on the glove box."Why did you stop so suddenly!". I shrieked in annoyance.He didn't even apologize; he just turned the car around and sped off."Where are you going now!" He remained silent. I finally snapped. " I hope you remain dumb forever". He finally turned in my direction, slowing down a little. His left brow was twitching indicating agitation."You are not dressing like a high school girl going clubbing to the conference !". I wanted to say something to counter his words, but I was at a loss. After a few minutes, we

Lillian" Mrs Ace ?" "Yes, Zayden ". I said wriggling my brows at him.You should see the expression on his face. I had to stifle my laughter, even his ears turned red. He cleared his throat. " What did you do with all that food? ". I wasn't expecting him to ask about that. "I've been munching on them little by little ". " All by yourself?" I nodded. " Yep, do you want some . I could get some for you, it's indirectly yours too ". He sighed. " We're here ". I then realized that we had arrived at the conference. I suddenly tensed. There were a lot of expensive-looking people and cameras and a long red carpet at the entrance. The flashlight was blinding "Umm, am I to wait here ?".He scoffed." Then why did you come in the first place ".I swallowed as I got out of the car. I was having cold feet. The air alone seemed intimidating. " Relax, all you have to do is nod and smile". He assured me. We began walking towards the entrance when we were stopped by a high-pitched voice.

Zayden Grabbing her hand, I dragged her forcefully away from that piece of trash. I despise her interactions with Aiden, it makes my blood boil. " Let go of me !" She tried freeing herself from my grip, but I wasn't going to stop till we were away from the crowd. I dragged her upstairs and onto the balcony of the hall.I finally let go of her hand, watching as she fumed."What is wrong with you !" She yelled freeing herself from my grip." I'm going to say this once ". I told her taking a step closer."Stay away from my brother !" She snorted." It's none of your business who I associate with ". I gritted my teeth." You are my secretary, not his; you are only allowed to spend nothing more than three minutes in his company". Crossing her hands over her chest, she flipped her hair over her shoulder." Care to explain why ?" "Because I said so !" She snickered, turning to leave." I'd rather keep company with someone who doesn't have anger issues"I grabbed her wrist, irritatio

Zayden I opened the door for her, my eyes never leaving hers. It's not something I usually do but I just can't help it. Her cheeks turned pink." This is the first time you're opening the door for me. Did you perhaps hit your head on something?" I was shocked at what I did." I'm trying to be a gentleman,here." She chuckled." We both know you're not." I shrugged, getting into the driver's seat. We just left the registry. We were now married, I somehow found it hard to believe but she signed the papers. I had expected it would be difficult to convince her but here we were. There was this bubbly feeling that had been messing with my thinking since last night. She was yet to sign the contract, though. According to her, She would make the rules, and I was to oblige. " Wait, do not tell anyone we are married. No one can find out about this." She grasped, worry written all over her pretty face. I took a left turn, heading for the office." As long as my dad doesn't request a w

Lillian The first thing I noticed was how tall Zayden was, he had to bend to pass through the door. And then someone followed behind him, shorter but he occupied space. I stiffened, my fingers trembling slightly. Why was he here?He smiled at me." Lillian, it's been so long." I gritted my teeth; how could he be so jovial after everything he put me through? " I told Victoria it was you I saw being rushed into the ward but she wouldn't believe me." He chimed. "What do you want?" I said, cooly.Jade and Zayden were watching. Jade had only heard fragments of stories about my foster family, but Zayden knew nothing, and I wanted it to remain that way. He glanced around." If we could have some privacy." I nodded at Jade. She nodded back and left, but Zayden remained sitting. I saw the hesitation in his eyes. He didn't trust Thomas to be alone with me. I won't blame him, my father had the face of a criminal. " Come on, Zayden, I need to speak with my daughter," Thomas spoke with

Lillian I opened my eyes to darkness. My back hurt, my legs were numb and I couldn't move my hands. I groaned, my body felt extremely heavy. I tried taking in my surroundings; despite the darkness, it felt familiar. Where was I? A noise startled me; I turned in the direction of the sound. Footsteps started approaching. I attempted to stand then I realised I was tied to a chair. I tugged violently, hoping to loosen the rope a little, but it was no use; they were the size of my palm. I tried calming my breathing but they came out loudly. The lights were turned on, almost blinding me and causing my vision to blur a little. I couldn't make out the silhouette in front of me immediately. Slowly, my vision returned; there was a man. He stood tall and broad. I couldn't see his face because his head was almost touching the light bulb casting a bright light on his face. " Sweetheart I've missed you." He spoke. I froze. I recognised that voice. He raised my chin to l

ZaydenShe trembled, her knees jerking violently. "Hey, are you okay?" I reached for her but she stumbled backwards, knocking over the wine glass that was on the island and onto the floor. The first tear trickled down her cheeks as she grasped violently. She was losing balance, I did not understand what was happening. My first thought was that she might be asthmatic with the way she was grasping violently for air."Lillian, calm down. Breathe, breathe okay!"I held her shoulders but they were stiff and cold. Her whole body was stiff." Noah!" I had no idea what was happening but it was freaking me out. Her whole body started jerking erratically. She slipped out of my hold and stumbled on the floor right into the broken wine glass. "Fuck! Lillian calm down!" I ran to her side immediately, trying to lift her but she was shaking damn too hard. Her whole body was sweaty as tiny cries left her lips. I cursed "Lillian, look at me." I held her face, trying to get her attention b

Lillian "You are not supposed to be in the kitchen, Miss," Noah complained for the hundredth time. I glanced at him and continued making dinner. "I find more joy in eating the food I made." He mumbled something but remained silent. When I was done, I set the table and sat to eat. It was almost nine and Zayden hadn't come out of his room. I didn't even know he had left the office I only asked that he leave my space, not the damn building. Noah cleared his throat and I glanced at him." what?" He had been standing there and giving me the strangest look ever. He hesitated but eventually spoke." I don't know what's going on between you two but I think you should let it slide, that's if he had properly apologized." I sighed, reaching for my wrist that didn't hurt anymore. I knew I was dragging this out too long. How long has it been, four days? Five? I was angry that he thought so low of me, a part of me bitter that he only wanted my body, as for my wrist. It didn'

Zayden Fuck!Fuck! Fuck! I'm an idiot, I messed up big time. I saw the look on her face before she left. Anger, disappointment and fear. I knew them all too well. First I had called her a prostitute when I was clearly the one seducing her, then I had hurt her. Maybe I should put a leash on my tongue and my temper since I had no idea how to control them. She did not come out till morning, and then the next two days were a living hell.She avoided me like a plague. It was goddamn frustrating. She didn't talk to me; she always stayed in her room till the sun rose, and she ignored my calls and texts. She refused to let me drive her and she always stood at least three feet away from me. When I tried to go closer, she'd move ten steps away. I was losing my mind. I hated it, I did not like the burning feeling growing in my chest each day. Today wasn't any different. She came in today with Aiden. I didn't want her to get more angry at me so I remained calm as I watched A

Lillian I was a hot slippery mess. Zayden knew how to use his tongue, exploring places I didn't know were sensitive. I grabbed his thick hair, pressing his face against my pussy as I arched my back in pleasure. "Ahh, Zayden!" I cried, my mind blurry with ecstasy. "Slower!" I moaned. My hips jerked as he hit a spot. My toes were curling, my eyes rolling back into my head as my whole body convulsed. The orgasm hit me like a tornado, my body trembling violently. I watched with half-closed eyes as he pulled away, licking his lips like a hungry beast. His eyes were filled with lust. The next thing I heard was the unbuckling of his belt. My eyes roamed his body till they went below his waist. His hands were moving swiftly and it suddenly occurred to me what was about to happen next. I suddenly panicked as he grabbed my hips and spread my legs apart. I can't do this. I can't, at least not now. His zipper came loose and he reached inside his pants. I could already picture h

Lillian I had never felt this relieved in my life on finding out that it was Zayden's house help that arrived. Aiden was already halfway through the back door when I called him back. " You should leave, I can't afford to have another heart attack." I chuckled as I collapsed on the couch. Aiden checked his watch." It's barely five, but I'll leave soon. Or my brother might have my head." We chatted some more with me nervously checking the wall clock every minute. He finally got up to leave."From now on, speak to me at the office." I walked him to the door. He pouted." You don't want anyone finding out about us ?" I rolled my eyes." Stop making it sound like we're doing something bad." He laughed, gently raising my hand to his lips." I'll see you soon, Lilian." I smiled at him and watched as he left. I could finally breathe like a human. Zayden returned when it was almost nightfall. I had prepared dinner myself despite Noah's objection, and I was stuffing m

Zayden I remained calm, my face devoid of any emotion, because that was what they wanted. Any flicker of emotion I let slip through would be their tool for manipulation. " You want me to step down?" I raised a brow, my teeth grinding against each other. My father kept his shoulders high." Yes, and we have valid reasons to do so." I snorted. "And they are?" The other members remained quiet, waiting for my father to speak. "We've thought this through and made a careful decision. You are no longer competent enough." He finished. I should have expected his vague reason. Why put me as CEO since I was eighteen, only to throw me out now? I didn't think this was all, there was more to it. " Did the deal with Hale Corporation fall through?" I asked Instead, trying so hard to maintain my cool demeanour. He retorted." They haven't given us feedback yet." I relaxed further into my seat, my eyes fixated on him. I stopped seeing him as a father a very long time ago. The on
