Tasha's POV Never knew picking up an outfit was this hard, after much deliberation; I settled for a fitted gray shirt with its knee length skirt and short jacket coupled with gray heels. I walked out, and Mother was wowed, but then a frown followed. " You've got a spoiler alert" she complained. " Really, anything wrong with my outfit? " I checked myself out to fish out any mistakes I might have drafted in a hurry. I was nervous. This is my first job since college and I wasn't really looking forward to it. Job hunting hasn't been easy, but getting a job at Quinns feels like a reward for all my troubles. I really wished to become an established writer. My unpublished books felt so good to me, that I'll never understand why I keep getting rejected. " Everything is perfect but you need a bag. Have some breakfast before you go" Mother sure had a way to lift up my mood. I released a deep sigh of relief, knowing that there was no fashion error. I had stayed up, watched endles

Tasha's POV " Dear Tasha, I'm so sorry about the misunderstanding. Please give me a chance to explain? I still love you. Yours Jesse" Misunderstanding? Love? Wow! Who does he think he is? Zoey warned me several times against having anything to do with him, but I had other plans. I smiled to myself as I swiped my pass ID at the recognition machine, which granted my access as the barricades slid off, walked in the direction of my new office and stopped at the entrance. I took my mobile, which sat nicely in my left pocket, and texted Jesse to meet up during lunch when someone brushed past me without an apology. Miss JamesWhat a sly woman! I will not be her slave for the rest of my working hours, and I've decided to spit on her grave. My desk was filled with a pile of tattered books, and I began to check what they contained. Short hands! Who still writes in short hands in the 21st century? Nevertheless, this was the job of the intern. I signaled to Adam to pick up the pil

Ethan looked at the figure standing in the entrance, waving at him. " Look who's here " he said, waving back at Tasha. She walked over to where he was seated, and crashed into a seat herself. A group of staff stood behind them, with boxes hanging in their arms; Tasha glanced at them, trying to get what they stood for when Ethan coughed. " Oh, you aren't going to Binge today. The makeover will be done here" Ethan added, seeing her confused scrunched face. Tasha squeezed her eyes tight, while clenching her teeth. Her plan with Zoey had just been nipped in the bud. She brought out her phone, texting Zoey. ' Hey, our plan fell through, the makeover is at Ethan' she typed, and Zoey replied almost immediately. ' Then, Activate plan B then! Good luck' " Ma'am?

The gala event was still at 9pm, so she had plenty of time

" A movie date? Why would he ask you out on a movie date? Ethan furrowed his brows, disgusted at the fact that Lucas had asked Tasha out on a date. " Why are you so worked up about this? I thought you would be happy that I'm finally getting his attention on me. " Ethan cleared his throat, trying to hide his bittered face from her, " I know, but.... " " You're jealous? " Tasha cuts in, concealing the laughter that was piling up in her lungs, waiting to burst. " Jealous? I mean, movie dates should be out of the question, even if you were to go on one. It should be for you and I? " Ethan poured himself a drink, and swallowed it down his throat. " What is wrong with both of you? Lucas, the supposed bad boy was acting all nervous while we were having a conversation, and then you are jealous he asked me out on a date. " Tasha taunted. " That son of a bi*ch! Nervous? Ah! " Ethan scoffed, his sweet face turned into anger., making Tasha curious about what could have happe

I checked my mobile. No texts. No missed calls. I knitted my brows at the unusual occurrence. Jess probably forgot to, yet my instincts kept screaming at me not to let this slide. I sighed heavily and opened my personal computer to check my email for reviews on my new book. Furthermore, I smiled when I saw two new emails.Sure, it was a rejection and this will not stop me from my dream of being a successful writer, but the second mail was something else. I clicked on it, and it was a final interview invitation from a publishing company I had recently applied to; Quinn's House. My mouth fell open, and I screamed. I picked up my mobile to text Jess about the joyous information. I did not care that he hadn't called or texted for two days, twenty minutes, and seven seconds. ' Jess, I've been called over for the final interview at Quinn's. Call me when you see this. Love you! 'My door flung open, and she walked in, flinging her bag and shoes all over.The ultimate best friend has

8:35Good Gracious! , I'm late. I scrambled from my bed, distorting the sheets that covered my naked body, and climbed down the bed hastily. Biggie's going to kill me! I ruffled through the pile of clothes on my stranded sofa, picked up a skirt and a gray shirt, which was originally blue. Took my courier bag and shoved whatever I could lay my hands on from my closet into it; lipstick, concealer powder, mascara… No, No! I had forgotten to stitch up my mask. Getting another one would have cost me more money, I burped. Eww! That stinks. I dashed into the toilet to brush my teeth and found myself staring at a ghost in the mirror. Placing both hands on the sink, I breathed heavily. My hair was messed up. I rushed back to my room to get my hairbrush and straightener. My room was messier. I had to shuffle between piles of both clean and dirty clothes to get my brush. Phew. Then, I rememberedStraightenerI checked my closet and my bed table, but it was nowhere to be found. I squeez

I felt my head banging, as I turned the door knob to the office, where the final interview was being held. The secretary's face expression had lowered my self-esteem the more I was late, that being considered. All eyes were fixed on me, as I took the last available seat out of three meant for applicants. Four judges sat opposite side, three females and one male. I knew I was done for as females are notoriously known to be more fierce. Soon, it was my turn and everything went upside down. I could only give jumbled answers to some of the questions asked. This was the end of me, I thought, when a female judge lit up the tensed mood and asked if it was true my mother ran a fried chicken shop. I gave an affirmative answer, wondering how that question was related. " I dislike fried chicken" she gave a huge mocking smile as she left while the other judges dispersed. I left the office, letting out a deep sigh as I walked down the hallway when a thought popped into my mind. " Jesse"He

Lucas Quinn walked into the conference room filled with heads of departments and directors, who in turn stood up immediately after his entrance. Bowing their heads, he sat down and gestured for them to do the same. They had gathered up for the preparation of the mid-year appreciation party for Quinns House, a proposal which they were yet to draft out. Lucas had denied all of their proposal ideas for the party and everyone was drained. It was one of the many things they dreaded about him. His unflappable spirit. They had a month until the event, and they have not come up with a theme or concept for it. Knowing that kept them on edge since they knew he was going to keep them them on their toes soon. The conference lights went off, leaving the projector rays the only light in the room. He cleared his throat and all eyes were fixed on him awaiting his speech. Tired eyes and frustrated expressions laid under the guise of their focused eyes. " No one with any more concept for the eve

The Woman He Never Wanted Not What I Expected
Lucas POV I could swear with my fortune that I never thought I could see her again. This time, she looked curvy, but she didn't seem to know me, or she played that way. Her eyes, the structure of her face and the voice were so familiar! Everything looked so surreal. I touched her, she bled! She looked somewhat fat or curvy, I don't care about the body type, but every other thing was familiar. I don't know why I had to throw myself at her at that event, the magical attraction I felt towards her was still there. Till now, Lyanna hasn't shown up, not even in my dreams. She had always been my shadow ever since her death, and I feel guilty for that, but she showed up again? I bet if she had shown up in her skinny skin, she would have been noticed by my friends at least. I sunk into the chair holding my head in my palms as I began to flashback to the day Lyanna died. I had caught her in bed with someone else; that act would not have made me so mad if it was somebody I didn't kn
The Woman He Never Wanted The fundraising event
Tasha walked in elegantly, all eyes fixed on her, while some murmured as she walked past them. She spotted Lucas at the end of the hall and struggled to find her way to where he could see her. She knocked over a tray filled with glasses of wine, which a male server carried, spilling them all over him. " Oh! Sorry I.... I didn't mean to" she muttered in a low tone, while a female server comes to his aid, picking up the broken pieces of the wine glasses. Tasha looked around and no one was concerned with what had happened. Instead, they had moved further from them to avoid getting spilled on. Tasha bent down to help the female usher in picking up the broken pieces when a shard got stuck in one of her fingers. " Fuck! " she cried in agony, releasing the piece of broken glass she held in her hand. She raised her head to see Lucas staring at her from afar, but turned away when she saw him. Instead she asked the server where the bathroom was situated and ran towards it. She tri
The Woman He Never Wanted An Awakening Desire
Tasha's POV Waiting for him to grab my lips with his enticing mouth, he stopped abruptly, making my knees weak. He walked away from me, this time further, fist clenched. " I'm giving you a chance to prove yourself to me, it's not too late to back down. " " No, I can do this. " I could see his ears turning red as he walked out of the room. 'Was he the one seducing or the other way round?. " He returned almost immediately and threw a bag at me. " Change into that and meet me at the pool outside. " He maneuvered his way out of the room through the petals, which served as a closing. It was a swimming costume which I had to change into. I had hoped that I was up for grabs. He sure took me on a long journey during the lesson. I had held myself from grabbing his lips while he teased me. It was pure torture. Seduction is pure manipulation! I came here thinking seduction was mainly flirting and would have ended up in bed with Ethan before realizing that the deed was done. '

" Miss Rowan, " a voice called out, and Tasha quivered. She held her fast-beating chest with her left hand. It was Ethan's secretary seated in a fancy car. She entered the car and slammed the door loudly. She had just dodged from the man who had chased her with a car the other day. She could have never imagined him coming to look for her at the library. She had managed to recognize him in the last few minutes. She could have made the mistake of bumping into him, before she covered her face with the scarf, which she had brought along and tiptoed out of the library. She could have sworn her heart was torn in pieces when Ethan's secretary called out to her. Rubbing her temple, she turned to him and commented, " You can call me Tasha, please. "Formalities made her seem older, and she hated that feeling. " Call me Nate too", he replied, and laughed. Releasing a long yawn, she drifted off to sleep. He nudged her arm, waking her up " Tasha, we're here. "Tasha and Nate laughed heartil

The only contract Tasha thought she would be getting was from a publishing company, but here she was a contract to seduce the most eligible bachelor in the state. She thought about it while she filled in for her mother's part-timer, who had flunked out a minute before the store opened for a toothache excuse. Her mother noticed her gloomy expression and her deep sigh for the millionth time. " At this rate, we might as well start eating salt itself, " she whispered sarcastically, and Tasha sighed again, realizing that she had been rolling the pieces of chicken in a large bowl of salt instead of flour. " I'm here you know, you can tell me anything " Mrs Rowan smiled affectionately at her, which she faked back. She could not even tell Zoey about it. She could never let her mother in on the contract issue. She'd know about the assault charge and things would go eerily. She was going to figure this out on her own. She packed the left overs of the last customers, washed all the plates
