********************
CALEB’S POV
******************
I am already fifteen minutes late for the meeting. I can't wait to see the shock on their faces when I arrive. From what my personal assistant has told me, the whole family is in the boardroom, waiting for my arrival.
I am also intentional about my dress code. Instead of the usual suit and tie, I decided to wear a shirt and ripped jeans; I look like the normal average guy, which to me is perfect. Brad, my chief operating officer, had earlier objected. He is from the school that believes that corporate events have a dress code, not me. I wear what I want to my own company. It feels great to be at the helm of so much power at this point.
Chidotthank you for embarking on this journey with me. please like and comment,. stay positive

When fools fall in love Selena knew nothing about love until she met Chris, two hearts became one. However, roadblocks existed that threatened their love. Being a dreamer, she never relented and gave her whole being to the one she fell in love with. “Your father would never approve of us Selena,” Chris repeated for the second time. He was skeptical and quite unwilling to dive into a relationship even though his heart was already captured by the endearing Selena with her luminous dark eyes and luscious lips. “Why do you say that, father has never denied me anything,” she whined. “I am daddy’s little girl and he would never say no to me.” Selena smiled. She has always been mesmerized by Chris, to her, he was the most handsome and lovable man in t

WHEN TWO HEARTS MEET ******************* SELENA’S POV ******************* I have always been a hopeless romantic and I guess it all stems from my fascination with romance novels and movies. The idea of loving someone had always fascinated me and even though I dreamt of falling in love someday, I never imagined that I would fall so hard and deep. Falling in love with Chris was by chance and in a short while I have come to love him more than life itself and I can give up anything just to be with him, anything at all. Our relationship was not that of love at first sight, rather we were just good friends that fell in love with one another. The first time I met Chris I didn't care about nor notice anything peculiar about his physical features, to me he was just another boy in school. However, with each passing day and as we began to spend more time together

LOVING YOU Seasons came and went and love between Chris and Selena blossomed. They were almost inseparable, both finishing off each other's sentences as if their minds were in sync with one another. On-campus, they were the ultimate couple, their relationship was a source of envy to some while a vast majority of the students had great admiration for them, to a few they were inconsequential. However, Chris and Selena were only interested in each other and cared less about what others thought about them or their relationship. “Promise to always love me, Chris, no matter what.” Selena cupped the face of the only man that made her heart beat faster than normal. They had been dating for two years now. Although Selena’s father did not approve of them dating because he hates Chris, still Selena would not give in to her f

DO I DESERVE HER LOVE ************** CHRIS POV ************** Selena is the sweetest and kindest lady that I know. She was accommodating and never one to judge you or make you feel like a lesser person to her, this endeared her to me. I was seen as a nerd and colored poor kid in school even though I made good grades and didn't dress shabbily, they judged me before they got to know me. Their myopic mindset about me made me feel like a lesser person and I struggled with my mental health till I met Selena. She was like a breath of fresh air in my life. With her, you know that what you are getting is nothing short of the best. I was not a peasant as most students and some parents would love to think. We were not rich nor were we beggars. What we had was enough and I also had a state scholarship which made it easier for my mom, so she could have enough for our feeding, rent, a

LET’S MAKE LOVE Selena was feeling disappointed. She had expected Chris to join her in the bathroom after his sultry remark about them bathing together. However, a part of her was relieved that he did not join her. She did not notice as he slid into the bathroom until he wove his strong arms around her, goosebumps filled her skin leaving a tingling sensation all over her body. “You are beautiful,” Chris whispered against her ear before biting her earlobe gently. Resting his bare chest against her back, his hands wove around her and circled her breast, he caressed her hard nipples with his index fingers. A growl she tried to suppress escaped her mouth. He lay still on her, she could feel the throbbing of his heartbeat against her and a boner difficult to ignore.

MY BUTTERFLY ****************** CALEB’S POV ****************** My heart is heavy and burdened as I watch the woman who has come to mean everything to me wither away before my eyes. I see her pains and how she tries so hard to hide them with a smile. Sometimes I want to break down and cry but for her, I try to be strong. However when she is not watching I go to a private place and cry. They say strong men do not cry but for Angela’s sake I agree to be a weakling for her sake I agree that I am not man enough. We have only known each other for a short while now but to me; it seems like forever. We both have never been intimate, as we agreed to only remain friends. Angela's choice, not mine.

His wife Ella cringed as she looked at her husband. He must have lost his mind, was all she could come up with. He was not a heavy drinker and seeing him drunk and in this state made her angry. And it was no one else's fault but Sophie’s and her parents. They feel on top of the world lately. The most annoying part was the grandparent’s sudden favoritism for them. “Bunch of lo

Meeting the rival **************** Sophie’s pov **************** Since after the party, I’ve been feeling woozy and sick and for the life of me, I can’t explain why. I hardly get sick and at first, I thought it was the flu but the symptoms I’m having, state otherwise. I would have called in sick today, but I can’t. I have a meeting with the head of sales of Delacroix enterprise and I have to be on my best behavior, that’s if I intend to get more business deals from them. I quickly shower and try to moisturize my skin, but the smell of the lotion makes me sick and I rush to the toilet and puke out the little breakfast I had this morning.

I wasn't keen on going but I realized that avoiding her and her family was not beneficial to my plans. As I contemplated on whether to go or not, Angela came into my mind and I decided to invite her. It has been almost a few weeks now since I last saw her as she traveled to see her parents. I decided to call her to know if she was back in New York or not. She didn't pick her call on the first ring and when she managed to pick she sounded off and this scared me a lot. I didn't understand what she was saying at first a

I had earlier refused to go to the Fernandez party with Caleb when he asked me because I was not in the right frame of mind. How do I go partying when my life was crumbling before me; when my life was enveloped by grief? It was indeed a sad phase for me. However, the more I brooded over my life and situation, I got to realize that I had to live before I die. I couldn’t spend the remaining days dying instea
