“Nathan my baby boo, I missed you so much.” Lara whined coming forward and placed her plump lips on mine. Remind me again why did I invite her of all people?
Yeah my parents will have my head on a platter for dinner if I didn’t.
“Lara you have to pretend that you are my girlfriend in front of my parents, understood?”
“But baby boo you are my boyfriend.” I cringed like every time when I hear her say baby boo. But right now I am not going to argue with her since I didn’t want her to ruin the evening. She can be the evil bitch and the whiny clingy ‘girlfriend’ at the same time. I looked at her outfit which was a blue sequenced dress with a plunging neckline, it was hot but not exactly appropriate for dinner. I looked at my watch, it is already 7 now implying there was no time for her to get changed. I had already skipped lunch so if I am anymore late mother will be saying a

-Nathan-His smirk gave me the motivation to not let my anger out.“You will hear nothing again pops and I will make sure of that.” I said purposefully avoiding the taking and giving part and gave Peter a sinister smile. “You can rest assured Peter I won’t be handing my burden to you any time soon. You already have a lot on your plate that was mine.” I said making him red as well as his flustered fiancé. It may have happened two years ago but it hurts just like that day.“Natty why don’t you have some steak, you can discuss the rest later.” My mother said trying to diffuse the tension in the room. I stood up and gave her a kiss on the cheek and nodded at my father before taking my coat off the rack.“Thank you mom but I don’t really have an appetite today. I am sure Peter and Jocelyn would appreciate the steak.” I looked at Lara who looked confused w
The Inflammable Secret Dread The Devil
Dread the Devil-Anastasia-“Leave me alone you asshole.” I said trying get out of his grip but boy was he strong I could not move an inch from his grip. I glanced at the pizzeria hoping if Joe or Liam will come to save me from this maniac. There was an itch down my abdomen when his hand snaked around my waist gripping my hips to stop me from moving. A pleasant but torturous itch.What is wrong with me?“Mind your tongue with me, woman or else you are going to see the worst of me.” So this is not the worst side yet? He seethed and to be honest I did get scared but this man is not going to put me down today. I am strong girl and I can handle myself.“Honey, you are the one hurting me so if I want I can call the cops on you and let’s see what will then happen to your rich ass.” I said in a sickeningly sweet voice. I could swear his grip tightened for a minute but then he loos
The Inflammable Secret Pop!
-ANASTASIA-Okay I am freaking out! This is my first chance to present an actual interview on the channel and it is with none other than my new so called enemy if I can call him that. I am so tensed that I didn’t even put a post in the blog and I have never missed a day before.I had to make sure I keep my feelings under check and not lose my temper. Now I have to look presentable, so…..After rampaging my little closet in the apartment I found what I was looking for, my cyan blue shirt. This is literally my lucky charm I bought it around 6 years ago when I was writing an exam and I became the topper that year. Superstition I know…. but oh well!Also on my internship day wearing this shirt I was awarded with the best day of my life which is why you can’t blame me for picking this old but beautiful and stylish shirt. The only problem was that it was a little tight in the chest area over the years but I am going to
The Inflammable Secret Interview Down the Drain
-ANASTASIA-I am totally done for! She will get another reason to spread rumors about me to her yappy little comrades in the break room. By the way I thought this female was on vacation? What is she doing here and that too when I finally get the chance to be on air.“That’s you right Anastasia?” she said being too sweet when I know the reality. She suspects something is wrong otherwise she wouldn’t even think of talking to me.I had to turn, no way out. Closing my eyes I turned around and waited for her to laugh or any other person in the elevator to but no one did. I opened my eyes but all I see was a mop of brown hair. I am sure my burnt red brows are making the perfect ninety degree on my forehead. It clicked the minute I turned but what confirmed it was the khaki covered back and the strong husky cologne that covered my nostrils.Aww he covered you to protect you from embarrassment.I guess I ha
The Inflammable Secret Not a Typical Night
-ANASTASIA-“You were not bad.” My eyes bulged out of my socket staring at the lady in front of me. Is she even being serious? The pout on Kelly’s face from the sofa confirmed that I am not dreaming.“Really?”She nodded before showing me some of the comments that said I did a pretty good job and that I had managed to unnerve the ever stoic CEO. Wow!“I might consider giving you a slot but no promises. Now don’t you have a shoot at the central park regarding the protest to save dogs tomorrow? Deal kindly with those girls.” I nodded and scampered off feeling all giddy.I sat back at my desk and sighed relieved. See my shirt is lucky. I went through the shoot from the other day and edited few mistakes all the while chewing on my hamburger. All of a sudden I lifted off my chair and spun around making me laugh and almost spit out the burger I just had.“Cain put me down.&rdqu
The Inflammable Secret First Ever
-Anastasia-Aghhh… my phone. My phone where is it? And god damn why is it ringing so loud? Groaning I removed the covers and rolled onto the other side of the bed and took the phone from behind my ass. Priya?Its only 5 yet; I still have two hours before I get up. I answered the call and stood up wearing my pajamas and switching off the radiator. “Hello?”“Oh Tash.” She whimpered on the other side. remember when I said it is going to be a long day? Here it is. “He doesn’t mean what he said last night. He calls it a slip up. can you believe it?”“I told you so.” I murmuring sipping my coffee and taking out my clothes for the day. “Sorry. But I warned you yesterday and you didn’t listen. So,how awkward is it?”“Very. I don’t know what I will tell ma and babuji. They were so excited.” I wanted to ask her why she told them so early but kept
The Inflammable Secret Unexpected Offer
-ANASTASIA-“Do you know Mr. Dominic from other than your interview yesterday morning?” Cain asked as we settled back into the car after we paid a visit to the hospital. Apparently there was a sprain in my wrist and a few scratches on my ankle from the glass that should go within a few days other than that I am perfectly fine.Doesn’t he remember really? Or is he mocking me?“Yeah I kind of spilled coffee and then a pizza on him in the past few days. Remember? And furthermore he saved me from embarrassment when my shirt decided to pop open. ”Cain’s mouth formed an ‘o’ shape trying to imagine the entire scenario. “Right. I completely forgot about that. Sorry.”“It’s okay. It’s just that I don’t like the amount I am seeing him in the past week.” Nor the effect he had on me but I kept the last part to myself. Or that he stole my first k
The Inflammable Secret Blueberry Scone
-ANASTASIA-Standing in line for coffee at 6:00am was not exactly what I appreciated but right now if I didn’t get caffeine I might collapse. If I looked outside Starbucks just two steps away in bold letters the board hung. ND WATCHES. I am still on duty if that makes sense. She never said I had to guard him inside his office all I had to do was to check if something strange or interesting takes place wherever he was. The target is at his own company today. I wrote in my note pad and then took my iPad to post an update.And it is not like a missile is going to fall on him any moment now. I could take a break and this bitter espresso that I am going to order with the blueberry scone is something I deserve.‘How many of you think caffeine is bad for your health? I am on the no side. It just gives you energy to carry you stressful day forward. Just 18 days left for Christmas. My shopping is done what about yours?

The Inflammable Secret Epilogue
-ANASTASIA-“There you go.” I said pulling the t-shirt over my three-year-old and as always it was a green t-shirt, the boy didn’t like anything other than green. He gave me a cute smile before jumping off the bed giving me a heart attack and ran off to the kitchen to steal one of the cookies that Nathan made the other day. “Don’t take more than one, Chris.” I yelled but I know that it is off no use.Hurrying I changed into a maroon formal dress and did a half up and down before getting out of the room. “Come on Chris, I have a reading to be done with and then we have to go to your sister’s play.” By the time I reached the kitchen I was panting.Chris had cookie crumble all over his face, “Mama can I have another cookie?” I looked at the plate, out of six cookies that were there only four were remain, I gave him a knowing look which made him pout. “Two mama, yummy dada&rsquo
The Inflammable Secret I Love You
-ANASTASIA-Oof! All the bags were packed but I was only taking one with me, Nathan said he could send the rest to Philadelphia. No, he is not okay with me going but that is how it has to be. My bus comes at 10 which means I have to leave now if I want to catch that bus.I read my response to Philadelphia once again with a sigh. I guess I am happy with my decision, this is for the best. “Are you packed?” Nathan asked making me turn around and see him leaning against the door.Last night I thought he would not stay with me in the room but he did, he hugged me tightly almost as if I would get up and leave at night. Then again, I didn’t complain because I don’t know when I will get the chance to sleep with him again. “Yeah. Helena awake?”He nodded. I removed the shirt I was wearing noticing my belly, it was not showing yet, Dr. Melendez said I would have to wait for three months to see the bump but he sai
The Inflammable Secret His Version of the Truth
-NATHAN-“Why did you lie to me?” She asked tears filling her eyes. I thought she was bothered by me not being Helena’s father but her problem was that I lied to her.Sighing I pulled at the ends of my hair, I was going to tell her when we went on that date but then she felt insecure and the day went with that. I tried many times but backed off afraid of her reaction. “I was scared.”She scoffed. “Is that the truth? Because Nathan as far as I can remember from the time, we met you have only been feeding me with lies and me, like a fool believed each and every one of it.” Her words hurt but I deserved it and I won’t ask her to take it back or apologize.“I am now telling you the truth...” I said trying to reach out to her but she stepped away like I was a stranger, this hurt way worse than when Jocelyn cheated on me and I can’t imagine the pain I caused her. “Anastasia
The Inflammable Secret New Member
-ANASTASIA-My eyes widened. “Ar… are you sure?” I asked trying to remember whether we used any protection, all the times we did it but I am not sure. I didn’t take any pills but about Nathan, I am not sure.“Yes. WE checked twice since we were shocked.” Should I panic? No, I am not sad, I have a life growing in me, in nine months I will get someone like Helena there is nothing to be sad only happy. But I don’t know if Nathan felt the same. “Anastasia, we took your blood with you pregnant that is not good.”I frowned. “How so? The baby is fine right?”“For now, yes but I don’t know about the future, because as you can see you have intense pain and that is not going to reduce. During the delivery you are going to have complications and anemia is something you will have to suffer throughout the nine months.” I smiled at him, making him raise his brow. &ldqu
The Inflammable Secret Helena
-ANASTASIA-I had stopped listening to the doctor and had my eyes on a frantic Maria. Moving away from the others I walked over to her, somehow my mind kept telling me that something is wrong. But what could go wrong? Maybe Helena was being fussy so Maria brought her to me.Yeah, that is the best explanation. I touched her shoulder, she turned to me and heaved a big sigh of relief. “Tasha... Helena is not well.”I raised my brow before taking Helena from her, “What could be wrong? She was fine when we left her in the morning.” I said chuckling nervously. I touched her forehead, it wasn’t warm but she looked pale and wasn’t opening her eyes. “She doesn’t have a temperature but why is she so pale?”Maria shrugged. “She was playing with her toy when it dropped from her hand, I thought it was normal but when I looked at her, she was on the verge of fainting. I picked her up and calle
The Inflammable Secret Stitches
-ANASTASIA-Their eyes were wide like saucers when the door was bashed open and Nathan came in with the cops. “Surprised?”I smacked his arm. “Stop being so dramatic, they get our point.” Nathan glared at each one of them and I saw his clenched fists, I didn’t want him to fight in here no at least not in front of the cops. I took his hand in mine releasing the knuckles and then entwining our fingers.“You. Were. Alive?” Jocelyn asked still in shock.“Yes. If you only wanted to kill me and take my place in the company then why did you pretend to be in love?” Jocelyn’s head bowed in shame, his eyes were on Stella. Even when he says that he doesn’t care, I knew he did after all it was his cousin and first love.Stella was screaming and throwing her feet in air as they dragged her out. “Nathan we are cousins, why do you think that I would plot to kill you? I am&hel
The Inflammable Secret Making him Confess
ANASTASIA-Surprisingly Dave wanted to meet today, that is a week after our conversation. I wonder why he did that? “Park how long till we reach?” I asked him leaning over.“10 minutes ma’am.” Nodding my head, I continued to look outside. I knew Nathan was ten feet away from me but I couldn’t help but feel slightly nervous. If everything goes well, then according to the plan Nathan will announce that he is alive in the afternoon and from tomorrow I can go back to reporting and Nathan can go to his second home, his office.Dave wanted us to meet in a hotel, not a very pricey one but considerably cheap. It was a motel more than a hotel. When Park parked the car, I took in a deep breath before praying in my head. I am scared, I don’t want to do this. Shit! I am panicking. “Relax, I am right behind you.”Nathan’s voice calmed me and I smiled at myself. “Let’s go teach thi
The Inflammable Secret Trapping Them
-NATHAN-Jocelyn had entered my list as number three, yes, she managed to pass five other people. Seeing Anastasia’s shocked face, I could understand why she would think that I wouldn’t put Jocelyn’s name in the list. What she didn’t know was that I am way too rational and practical, I don’t trust anyone easily.And Jocelyn had stepped down from my trust list the day she cheated on me. Also, her sudden interest to be with me again was way too obvious, she wanted money which was actually greed but I knew what she wanted more and that is power. “Stop looking surprised, Monroe and tell me if you think of anything else. I will run this with Marco.”She nodded and went out of the room only to come back within minutes. I smirked at her, “Missed me already?”Rolling her eyes, she came near me past my desk and stood in front of me with one hand on her hip making her look sexy, the crop top she
The Inflammable Secret Confirming the Enemies
-ANASTASIA-“I am sorry but you are wrong.” They looked confused and Cecilia’s face suggested that she thought I was crazy. Standing up I took my purse and said to them, “Come on, I will prove it to you.”Without waiting for their answer, I left the office and Stella glanced behind my back, I hope they don’t talk to her about what happened inside. I watched through the open elevator doors as they came out of the office eyes filled with tears and passed by Stella. Thankfully, they did not speak with her. “We will follow your car, Tasha.” Michael said getting out of the elevator.Nodding I got in the car and asked Park to drive to the Dominic residence. This was a better idea because then I might get a chance to warn Nathan. He is not going to expect this which makes his reaction almost unimaginable. I don’t want him to be mad at least not after last night.Last night’s memories au
