Rogue’s POVI’m on my way to meet Levi Thompson, Brianna’s assistant, to talk about the current state of their company. I’m worried. Last night after misunderstanding Brianna’s intention at the bridge, I got so scared and hurt. After she left, I immediately told my secretary to schedule a private meeting with Brianna’s assistant to know what’s happening.Actually, I don’t wanna interfere in her life. She’s a strong woman and I know she can get through this but after seeing her like that, even without the intention of jumping off the bridge, I decided to silently find a way to help her with her problems.I was about to enter the VIP room when the door in the next room swung open. A familiar sweet scent filled my nose and even without looking, I immediately recognized the woman who opened the door. To confirm my hunch, I bore my eyes at her and my lips parted in shock because of her state.Her lips were so wet and bright red. Her hair was a little mess. Her cheeks are flushed although h
Brianna’s POV“I’m sorry, Miss Bree. I was incompetent.”I lifted my eyes from some documents to look at Levi’s regretful face. When I confronted him about my meeting yesterday, he was also clueless about the identity of the prospect investor. Cain used another name to lure me into that meeting. I was mad at Levi for not doing a background check about the person I will meet but I am well aware that I have my share of faults.I shook my head. “Forget it, Levi. What about the companies I asked you to make an appointment with? We have to find new investors or we’ll have to file bankruptcy.”He looked down. “I apologize, Miss Bree. The companies I contacted aren’t interested.”My forehead creased. “What do you mean? You contacted three companies today and yesterday, right?”He nodded and fixed his specs. “Well, the company yesterday set a meeting for next week, but today, their secretary called and canceled it.”I blinked and sucked my breath. This is insane! I know for sure that Cain has
Brianna’s POV“Wow!”I flashed a sweet smile at Blake who got out of his car and praised me. I noticed we’re wearing a paired color and I liked it. He walked towards me in a dashing suit and offered his arm. “Shall we?”I snaked my arm on his arm and he guided me towards the shotgun seat. He was careful and gentle as he closed the door on my side. I watched him go to the other side of the car. Before he invests in my company, he wants me to accompany him to his uncle's birthday party. I’m nervous, alright! I mean, Blake Lucas’ family is now one of the riches and his uncle was a legendary actor. So I’m certain there would be a lot of people, showbiz or non, in the party. They might even recognize me.“Are you nervous?”I glanced at Blake and smiled softly. “Kinda. People might recognize me.”The corner of his lips rose. “Of course, they’d recognize you. The luxurious Brianna Quinn, heiress of The Quinn’s Villa is seen with Blake Lucas, the handsome nephew of a legendary actor.”I smirk
Brianna's POVI thought I could easily change my life after I got reborn. I had the courage to change my fate because I know I have my resources. But after realizing the possible fall of my company, it shook me. It wasn't Cain who shook me, it was the situation of the company that my grandfather entrusted me with.I have three days left from a week that the shareholders gave me. I only have three days to find a way to at least assure them that the company won't fall. I only have three days left to prove that I can save the company. But I'm losing my hope.When Blake showed up, I thought I found hope but I was wrong. Blake has his own plans and it might affect my company.The project I approved before I filed for a temporary leave was kept on hold by my greedy uncle and instead, he used the remaining funds to start his condominium with a hotel project. He's indeed a gambler. A very stupid gambler. He would gamble everything on something that isn't even certain. He's dirtying the compan
Rogue Adams’ POVI was pissed right after I saw a stolen photo of Brianna in the Lucas family mansion. The caption was insulting and mocking her, saying she came to see Cain Hamilton. I was invited but I declined the invitation, now I found myself in front of the huge mansion of Blake Lucas’ family. I hate that dude. He’s a womanizer and a fcking pretender. I bet he was the one who brought Brianna to this birthday party.“I heard it! I heard Blake asking Brianna Quinn to marry him.”My eyes widened in fraction and I stopped in front of the group of women in the corner of the pool area.Marry him? I knew he had wicked plans. Damn it! Is he trying to take advantage of Brianna’s situation? I asked to meet Levi Thompson again and he told me everything about what has been happening in their company. It’s a complete mess and now Blake Lucas is trying to make things even complicated.My irritation intensified especially after I saw two women trying to intimidate the most intimidating woman I
Brianna’s POVBefore I could answer, Rogue lifted his arms and shook his head. He smiled apologetically. “You don’t have to answer that. I’m sorry for being nosy.”I shook my head. “It’s okay.”I actually want to tell him that I don’t love Cain anymore. I want to tell him that but I feel so nervous. He told me about his feelings. He confessed that he loves me. And when he kissed me, I felt his feelings, I felt his heart. He whispered that he’s in love with me. It almost took my breath away.I swallowed hard and hugged the pillow. I sniffed the pillowcase and gasped when I smelled Rogue’s scent. He smells so…handsome and yummy. Eh? Am I lusting over him or am I simply attracted to him?I lay on the bed straight and stared at the ceiling. I’m still in the condo unit of Rogue’s friend. He said he has his own room in this pad and this is where he wants me to sleep while he’s in the other room. I actually wanted to go home, but he insisted on letting me stay here because it’s already midni
Brianna’s POVI was taken aback. Last night he asked me if I still love Cain and after he comforted me, I told him I don't. Now he's asking me if I'll accept Cain again.He must've a reason. He must've been thinking that there might be circumstances or reasons that would make me accept Cain, but no… I don't have plans to take him back.“No,” I answered honestly.Rogue stared into my eyes after he released a sigh of relief. He looked down and when he lifted his face to look at me again, he smiled. “That’s good! Let’s eat?”I nodded and we started eating. Offered to wash the dishes after we’re done but he didn’t allow me, saying I’m a visitor. He sent me to the living area and opened the television before he went back to the kitchen. I just smiled and fixed my eyes to the movie. My eyes suddenly captured a photo frame on the cabinet beside the television. Slowly, I walked towards the frame and my eyes widened.It was a photo of Rogue and another man. Rogue was lying on beach sand, the o
Brianna’s POVI walked past Cain but he grabbed my wrist and pushed me against the wall. I groaned because of the impact and glared at him. My chest was moving up and down in irritation. He just has all the reasons to make me upset. This guy would never leave me alone. He would do everything it takes to get what he wants. But I won't let him.His burning eyes shot me glares. “Tell me! Who was it, huh? Was it the guy last time? Or was it Blake Lucas? Fcking tell me, Brianna!”I pushed him with all my strength. “I am not obligated to explain to you or even answer you nonsense and goddamn questions! Why don’t you just leave me alone? Leave me alone, Cain. How hard is it to understand? Are you stupid or your ego just couldn’t take it?”He gritted his teeth. “You can’t do this to me, Brianna! I will really pull my investments!”“Do it!” I growled. “You are not manipulating me again, Cain. Why are you acting like it was my fault? Let me remind you, you were the one who cheated!”“So that’s
Rogue's POV"Why don't you tell her about how you feel?"My forehead creased as I looked at Leon, "Can you see her happy face whenever she's with that frog? I can't ruin that."One of our college friends laughed and tapped my shoulder, "Man, that woman is so elegant and high. It will never be easy to get her attention."I groaned and pushed his hand away. "I know."I sighed and looked at my legs. I'm sitting on a wheelchair. I'm still recovering and receiving therapy because of the accident I had with Brianna. I talked to her grandfather last time and he told me that she couldn't remember anything.Mr. Quinn begged me not to remind her about the accident because it might affect her health. I understand. For me it's what matters the most too. Her health.But seeing her happy with another man, it breaks me. When did she meet him, anyway? In the hospital? Damn!My blood would boil in anger whenever I see them together but I have to endure it. I need to. For her health. For her safety.I
Brianna's POVWhen I woke up in a hospital for the second time after an incident, I stared at the ceiling for so long.I had a dream or was it a reality? I was brought back to the future again and in the future, Rogue saved me. It was like a continuation of what happened before. Rogue pulled me and saved me from Cain's shoot, but he was shot by Amber. Rogue died on that day saving me. He didn't care if he get shot by another bullet from Amber just so he can save me from Cain.That's what will happen in the future. I was brough back here not only to fix my life but to save Rogue. He's destined to die in Amber's hand. Amber will be the reason behind his painful death and it scares me now."Babe!" Rogue's voice brought me back to the reality. He held my hand, "I'll call the doctor."I shook my head. "Where is Amber?"He swallowed hard as anger ignite in his eyes. "She's dead. She died in her car."Am I considered evil if I say I'm glad she's dead? That only means Rogue is saved. I won't
Brianna's POVI forced myself to open my eyes to see what's happening and who dragged me. My elbow and head hurts. I caressed my head and looked at the person on the driver seat. I was sitting on the shotgun seat, tied and helpless.My eyes widened after I recognized the person beside me. It's been a long time since I last saw this face and it's making me so angry seeing how this person is trying to ruin my life again."WHAT THE HELL ARE YOU DOING, AMBER?"She smirked and glanced at me, "You will die now, Brianna."I shook my head, "Even if you kill me right now, you won't get your life back—""IT WAS ALL BECAUSE OF YOU!" She shouted hysterically. "YOU RUINED MY CAREER! YOU RUINED MY LOVELIFE! YOU RUINED EVERYTHING, BRIANNA!"Her hands on the steering wheel are shaking. I gritted my teeth and accidentally glanced at the side mirror. My heart kicked inside my chest after I recognized the car following us. Rogue has found out about my sudden disappearance."Your life is good now while I
Brianna's POVDays and months passed real fast. I gave birth to a healthy baby girl and she actually looks like her daddy. Her eyelashes were long, curled and thick. Her nose was pointed and proud. Her eyes are gray, probably because I've grown to love Brent's gray eyes when I was pregnant.I was lying on the hospital bed, wearing a hospital gown. I woke up early the next morning after I gave birth to our first born. Rogue didn't sleep though. Our parents told me everything right after I woke up.When I lost my consciousness after delivering our baby girl, Rogue panicked. He almost threw all the equipment inside the delivery room, thinking he'd lose me. Mom was so worried as she told me about that."She's so tiny." Rogue is currently staring at our daughter, sleeping in my arms.I smiled at him. "You wanna carry her?"He shook his head and swallowed hard, "Next time. I-I still don't know how to carry her."The door swung open revealing a female nurse smiling at us while holding a piec
Brianna's POVI ran to the bathroom early in the morning only to vomit. My body felt so heavy and I'm still so sleepy. A few minutes later, I felt a warm big hand caressing my back.I lifted my face and met Rogue's eyes through the mirror. I gave him a weak smile.He looked very worried as he turned the faucet on and washed my mouth. After drying my mouth, he kneeled beside me and caressed my three months baby bump."Baby, don't make it too hard for mommy, please…"I smiled even more and brushed my fingers against his messy hair. He looked up at me worriedly.I chuckled, "It's normal."He groaned. "I'll probably back out from my original plan of having many kids."We stayed in the beach house all throughout my pregnancy. Rogue was working from home while taking care of me. My pregnancy is so sensitive. There are times that I'd pick a fight with Rogue but my husband patiently calms me down everytime. He would always kiss me and hug me to calm me down. He was so patient, so understandin
Brianna’s POVIt was a sunny afternoon, under the bright and blue sky, with the calm waves of the ocean, the warm touch of the air and soft music playing. It was so beautiful to feel and to see and to experience. I could say this is one of the happiest moments of my life. One of the most beautiful. One that I will treasure in my heart.Carrying a bouquet of flowers, people smiling and praising me, wearing a white long and elegant dress while walking on a red carpet. My veil was so long and so elegant. I’m already in the middle of the aisle, but the tip of my veil is still under the floral arch.I roamed my eyes. This is so perfect. Our family members gathered here, watching this magical moment in my life.I never felt this happy and this priceless when I married Cain. I guess I wasn’t really in love with him. I was just blinded by my own fantasy of having a man by my side who will side with me and protect me without thinking twice. It was Rogue Adams Ryder. From the very beginning, it
Brianna’s POVTrue to his word, Rogue brought me to a beach house. It was so beautiful and fascinating. I was in awe while watching the calm waves of the ocean reaching the shore. It’s so refreshing and calming to be here.I took my shoes off and let my feet get buried on the white sand. I smiled as I lifted my face to look at Rogue. He was the one who operated the helicopter on our way here and now the helicopter is leaving operated by his guard.“You like it here?” He asked, smiling sweetly.I nodded, “Yes. Thank you for bringing me here, Rogue.”He wrapped his arm around my waist and kissed my temple, “Anything for my babies.”I grinned and took my phone out. I took a photo of my feet buried under the white sand. I also took a photo of us. Rogue’s face was serious everytime I included him in my shots. I frowned at him.He scratched the back of his head. “I’ll take a photo of you.”Now, I’m glaring. “Don’t be a killjoy and smile while I take photos. I wanna enjoy this moment, Rogue
Brianna's POVI smiled and waved at Brent and Diane after I dropped them off to their school. Diane just groaned and waved back lazily while Brent waved back while smiling from ear to ear.After dropping them off, I'm off to the company. I have to remain in my position for the meantime. Rogue doesn't want to take my position because he said I deserve it more than anyone else.It's been a month since Brent and Diane's school started. I've recovered from the traumatic incident that led me to sleep for three days. I'm okay now and I'm coping up with our current situation.When I reached the company, Levi greeted me. I smiled at him and went straight to my office.I feel so light and happy. Now, I'm free and safe.Cain is now behind bars. Also Uncle Aiden. Amber suddenly disappeared. Some say she's hiding from her haters, some say she's too embarrassed to face the people. About Andrea, she migrated to another country—I heard from mommy, Rogue's mom.A half week after I got discharged, Rog
Brianna's POV"OH MY GOD!"Rogue immediately covered my naked body with his large frame. I had a glimpse of who shouted and my cheeks burned again in embarrassment. It was Rogue's mom who immediately pushed her husband who's about to enter. I don't know what happened next because it covered my vision but I heard Rogue's father groaned."Mom! Dad!" Rogue growled at his parents."I'm s-sorry, okay. We didn't know. If we only knew..."I bit my bottom lip as I Rogue quickly pulled my pants up and locked its button before he zipped his pants.My lips twisted because of the uncomfortable feeling of my wet core against my panties. It's more embarrassing to walk in this state, especially since my legs are still shaking from the combined anticipation, embarrassment and lust.Oh Jesus! I can't believe this is happening to us."W-We'll just be in the living area." I heard Rogue's parents' footsteps.I bit my lips again as I looked at Rogue. His neck and face was red and his teeth were gritted."
