Sophia’s POV

Tiger glared at me for a while before he stepped out of the Villa. I stood stationary beside Dagnus, who kept smoking heavily.

I remembered the first time I just joined the organization, I wasn't used to their lifestyle. After several passing out sessions, being molested and mistreated before I stood for myself, I was finally able to adapt.

My phone vibrated in my pocket and I brought it out, only to see my worst nightmare number.

“Taking my revenge,” I read in my mind, what I used to save Alexandra's contact. Back when we were still in uni, we were both best of friends and everyone on campus envied our relationship.

We began having a series of arguments when Carlos befriended us. I loved Carlos with all of my heart and Alex knew about this, she was always trying to be the docile and funny person which got Carlos attracted to her.

This led to an argument, when I told her that I would make sure Carlos would be mine, and we didn't speak to each other for days. Carlos wasn'

I can't believe I have been really promoted as the chief strategy officer.The office was really spacious and I sat on my swivel chair, twirling around while giggling.“Aside from being rude, he knows my taste,” I affirmed, hitting the chair’s arm. Standing up, I went to drop my bag in the mini sitting area.I love how everywhere was painted in white, coupled with transparent doors. I went back to my desk, about to get to work when I heard footsteps approaching.Instantly, I got tense before the door suddenly opened and Sarah badged in. I defensively stood up, looking at her with expanded eyes.“You should have knocked, Sarah,” I scolded gently as she slammed the files on my desk.She scoffed, “The Favoritism recipient is now acting like a senior. Really?” She mocked, glaring at me and I was tongue-tied.“I expected you to do more than this, Alexandra. How can you stoop so low to even date t

    Alexandra's POV At The Hospital. “The wound has been taken care of before your arrival. Just add this ointment to it, that would lessen the swelling,” the doctor explained and Mr. Scott collected the ointment from him. I bowed at the doctor, saying thank you before he walked out of the room. I sat horizontally on the hospital bed, my back was resting on the wall. “See, I told you that it was fine,” I said to Mr. Scott, bringing my ankle closer to take a look at it. “Maybe. But I have to be sure,” he said in a matter of fact tone. He shifted his chair closer to me, giving my ankle a gentle massage. I was getting swooned by his kind gesture. My eyes fell on his hands, he was diligently doing it and a sheepish smile formed on my lips. He added the ointment to it before he glanced at me. I instantly looked away, he just caught me staring at him. I cleared my throat to get his attention. “Mr. Scott is this….” “Julian,” he interrupted me. My mouth went agape and a blush c

I get to meet you, hi!” She squealed excitedly and I looked at Julian, he only smiled before I turned to the lady before me. “Uhm… hi,” I greeted. “Hey, don't act all stiff and decent. I will be your sister-in-law soon so you should be free with me, alright?” She continued to squeal and I finally realized who she was. “You're Mr. Sc… uhm, J-Julian’s younger sister?” I stuttered. She nodded eagerly, giggling all the way before she hugged me again. “I'm so glad to meet you in person, girlfriend!” She hugged me tightly and my lips twisted, not expecting her to be this excited to see me. “Jasmine, be careful. She just hurt her ankle,” Julian cautioned, making us turn to him. Her expression changed i

He snickered, tucking the strands of my hair behind my ear and I bit my nails shyly. “My heart keeps beating faster whenever I see you,” he purred and blush crept on my cheeks, making me look at him with widened eyes. “Really?” I asked with a wistful expression and he nodded. “Oh my, why didn't you tell me all these while?” I whined, stamping my foot and pushed myself closer to him. “I was scared of what you might say to me,” he responded with the same expression as me. “You could have told me,” I faked a cry and he wiped my imaginary tears. “Stop crying, darlington. You're making me go weak,” “Darlington? I love it so much, call me that one more time,” “How about I show you how it feels to be a darlington?” He asked and I raised a brow. He smirked, leaning closer and I got the message. I pouted immediately for the kiss with my eyes closed. His lips didn't reach mine for the

Dangling behind her as she ran to me. “Geez, that's Julian's sister,” I said to Sophia in a rush, standing up and went to hug the running Jasmine. “I never thought that I would run into you here. Hi,” she was still the same, gushing brightly. Her eyes fell on Sophia and she bowed slightly. “Hello there,” she greeted politely. I invited her to our seat, smiling brightly at her. “Sophia, she said hi,” I reminded her. She hummed, nodding before standing up and walked out on us. “Huh? Oops,” Jasmine muttered, her face was flushed from embarrassment. My gaze was on Sophia's retreating back, wondering what made her act that way. “Sophia!” I called but got no response. “Did she leave because of me?” Jasmine asked with an apologetic expression. I flashed her a smile and chuckled. “Nah, n

Placing the phone on my ear, my heart kept beating unevenly in my chest. “Uhm… h-hi sir,” I mumbled stupidly, fidgeting. “Sir? Where is that coming from?” he asked. “Oh, no. I mean, hi. How is your day going?” I rubbed my thigh nervously, cursing the woman beside me for allowing this to happen. “Well, I'm good. How is your ankle?” He asked, making my heart blossom in my chest. So he remembered. A sheepish smile curled on my lips, gripping the edge of my top and dancing with my thighs together. “It's fine now. Thanks for asking boyfr-ff… buffer-off haha,” I bit my lips with a scrunched face. I'm screwed, I hope he doesn't grasp my words. “Buffer-off? What does that mean?” “Haha, just scratch that.

    Alexandra's POV “You wh*re!” the old woman spat out, slapping me across the face. I held my cheeks, more than shocked at what happened. I raised my head, looking at her with a disbelieving expression. She glared at me furiously, making me wonder what I did to her. My ear stung, making a tear sprang out of my eyes. I sniffed, my eyes were red at the humiliation, looking around the staff, who were looking at me with empathy and some were grinning. “M-Ma'am, I don't know you,” I stammered. My face was flushed from embarrassment, completely lost at what was going on. “Of course, you won't know who I am. All you care about is to sleep around with different men, you low-life imbecile! What right do you think you have, that made you believe that I would accept you into my family?!” she growled at my face. “I don't know you, Madam! Can you please tell me who you are?!” I screamed at her face. Her expression darkened and she raised her hands again, I shut my eyes in fear, bracing mys

I relented, swallowing my saliva. “I'm sorry,” I apologized. “It's fine,” her response was instant, making me turn to her. She crossed her arms, looking at her side. “Are you sure?” No response. “Do you forgive me now?” No response. “What can I do to earn your forgiveness?” “Can you just leave?! I wanna be alone, Julian. Please, leave….. ump!” I didn't know what came over me. What I wanted was to stop her from yelling and crying. I cupped her face and slammed my lips on hers. Her lips were soft and warm, I could taste the flavor of her lipstick in my mouth. I sucked her lower lip before pulling away, the kiss was brief and she didn't react to it. Her widened eyes were glued on my face. I wanted to tell her how cute she looked at the moment but this wasn't the right time. Letting go of her

Got it,’ she flashed me a smile, packing her belongings before leaving the house. I stood up and stretched my body, heading to where Julian was.He was with the event planner and I can't help but feel giddy with the way everything was going.“Hey, baby,” I greeted as I walked closer to him. He pecked my cheeks, pointing at the settings of the hall he was going for.“Do you like them?” He asked with a beautiful smile.The settings were simple, and elegant.Nodding, “I love it.

I rubbed my face roughly before fluttering my eyes opened.He was smiling at me sweetly before he kissed my forehead. Wishing me a good morning and I yawned soundly.I was stunned when he covered his nose, shifting away from me.“Really?” I scoffed, displaying a playful angry expression.“Your morning breath,”“I know right. But you shouldn't have made your displeasure known in that manner,” I said with a slight frown kiddingly.“It smells divine. But I just wanted to be sure that's why I covered my nose,” he made a lame excuse and that got me snickering. I stretched my body and the duvet fell off.I was totally naked! His eyes lingered on my chest before he made a funny face.“Meow,” I slapped his shoulder when he made that teasing sound. We both chuckled as I co

His eyes ogled my body with lust flashing through his eyes, I pulled him closer and kissed him more.The kiss was intense and sloppy, he gave my butt a gentle squeeze. And I moaned louder.“I think we need to stop,” he said huskily, kissing me back. I tried to collide our bodies together, my arms around his neck.I hummed in response without letting go of him. He tried to push me slightly but I didn't bulge. We were both horny and I see no reason why we have to stop now. The room was dark, dimly lit with blue light.“Baby listen,” he succeeded in stopping me, holding my hands. I pouted and he chuckled, pecking my lips.“I want you. More than you want me but we need to stop,” he cautioned. I wriggled my hands from hands hold, held his jaw and kissed him hungrily.He

I was all dressed up in a fancy silver dress, my hair was swept to the side with a jewel comb.And the diamond necklace on my neck sparkles under the bright chandelier light in the room, together with my earrings.My make-up was minimal which I was grateful for but I still see no reason for this. Julian called, and I was asked to dress up to attend a party.Now that we have arrived, my eyes were covered with a blindfold with my mum leading me inside the hall. My three-inch heels soft click sound on the floor was heard as we entered the grand hall.For some reason, I was jealous of the owner of the occasion. Perhaps Julian doesn't want me to know my way in or something. Whichever reason it might be, I still couldn't find one to support his decision.“Aren't we there yet?”“Soon, baby. Be patient,” my mum responded and I responded with a sigh.“Is Jasmine with Julix

Did Julian fight with you?” She asked me in a more

    Alexandra's POV “No, they don't,” Julian responded with a sullen expression, referring to his parents and my eyes widened in surprise. Even though I expected this response from him. I don't know why I'm still surprised. “It makes sense to me now. I tend to wonder why you chose to be a member of a so-called organization when you have influential parents that can get you to the top,” I said out my mind. “I was young and stubborn, determined and brave. I wanted to do this on my own, and I don't regret it at all….” He paused, turning to face me. My back rested on the bed bunk while he was seated on the edge of the bed. “Not until recently and the stripper thing came up,” he continued, explaining to me how he got to be a member without his parents knowing. I asked him. I heaved a deep sigh and stood up, going to sit beside him. His expression was seldom and I rubbed his cheeks with my palms. “Is there a way for you to back out?” “Yeah,” he responded and I raised a brow. “Really? W

Plus, I will be there with you so you don't have to worry. Okay?” He flashed me a reassuring smile and I nodded with anxiety written all over my face.We were currently in front of his parents’ room. After breakfast this morning, I decided for us to settle whatever that was between us. And Julian was here to accompany me.Taking a sharp breath, I knocked on the door and we were permitted to go in.

I have a lot of work to do, proposals that need my signature and many more.Since Alex's arrival, I hadn't had enough time to come to the company and get busy with work. I wasn't in the right state of mind to add work to my problems.Hearing no voice, I raised my head and found Marcus at the door. The pen I was holding fell from my grip and I leaned into my chair.A small smile formed on my lips before I stood up abruptly.“What's good, man?” We gripped each other into a manly embrace. How can I forget his kind gesture, watching over my company when I was away.“I’m good, I'm good. I expected you to have lost some weight,” he joked and I chuckled slightly, disengaging from the hug.I went back to sit on my swivel chair and he settled across from me.“How is she doing now?” He asked me and I sighed heavily.
