Mirabelle~I swam out of the water only to come face to face with Mariano. "Hey!" I blinked water out of my eyes. "Are you following me?""And why would I be following you in my own house?" He said smugly. "Hm. Stalker. Are you perhaps following me to see how much your words affected me? Would you like to look into my panties?""I'd be delighted to. But there's no need. Clearly, you're already too wet as it is. The only thing I'd be needing from now is that sound. That sexy sound you normally do make whenever I touch you.""What sexy sound? I do not know what you're talking about.""Well, how about we find out now?" He reached for me but I swam further away. "Don't. You. Touch. me." I glared at him.He looked at me smugly. "Why are you running away now? You weren't running away yesterday.""That was before I knew you were an asshole.""Stop calling me that. And by the way, you didn't compliment my cooking skills on the noodles I made.""It was horrible. I tolerated it to make you fe

~Mirabelle~When I woke up, he was there. He was seated, watching me."What? Is there something on my face? Why are you staring at me like that?" I asked him, sitting up."You looked so beautiful in your sleep, I didn't wanna wake you.""Ugh." I groaned, still trying to register the fact that we just had mind numbing sex two times in a row."Yeah and uh, someone's doing a cleanup in the house now and in your room...."My eyes grew big. "Oh my God! I think I forgot something in my room," I said, getting up. "I have to----"He pulled me back. "Relax, Belle. She's gotten rid of the sheets already.""Oh my God, look I'm sorry! I'm sorry, okay?! I didn't mean for it to happen...""Mean for what to happen? Belle, you can't be serious right now. I'm proud of you. Not because of anything else but just because you insisted on standing out. And for that, you may have just won yourself a fan. Not just a protector only. I'm proud of you, baby." He said and kissed my temple. "And about the food is

~Genevieve~"Doc, how is she now? How is my daughter?" Dad asked the doctor as soon as he stepped out of ICU. "It's a good thing we were able to stop the bleeding on time. She's fine now. Although there's something I'll need to ask her parents.""We are." Mom and dad said almost in unison."Oh," the doctor cleared his throat. "Which one of you suffered from dysthymia?""What?"There was a brief of moment of total silence."I did." Dad spoke up."For how long?""Seven years."I gasped. "Oh my God.""Was it how long it took you to overcome it?""Yeah. After my mom died, there was really no close person to help me apart from a woman who later betrayed my family, Bella Daniels. She was my therapist for years.""And I suggest you get a much better one for your daughter. I'll recommend some antidepressants for her but she'll also need a very good therapist. One who is wholely capable of connecting with her psychologically.""I don't understand, doc, what does all these mean? Mira's only hu

~Mirabelle~I couldn't sleep. I just kept tossing and turning and when I decided finally that this night wasn't going to be for me, I gave up and decided to go to the kitchen. Get to what I was good at to get my mind off of him. For the meantime, at least.I was already pulling out cups of milk from the fridge when breeze suddenly pulled the windows of the kitchen open. Sighing, I placed the cups down and moved to where the window was to close it when I felt a movement behind me. I stilled. And just I was about turning around, a hand slapped over my mouth and I shrieked, trying to wiggle myself out from whoever had me in their grip."Sh, it's me, Belle."I immediately stopped making a fuss. Mariano?He let go of me as I turned to face him. "What are you--what are you doing here? How did you get here? How did you find me?""Shh, keep it down. I've been following you for hours." He said and closed the windows.I furrowed my brows. "For hours? Since when?""Since you got out of your hous

~Mirabelle~"Do you really have to leave? Why can't you just stay a few hours? And perhaps, wait until nighttime before making your way out?" I asked Mariano who was getting dressed."Duty calls. And besides, who said I can't get out now?""Then everyone would find out that you spent the night here.""Wesley's out. Kaitlyn's busy. The kids are at school. What better opportunity could there be? And besides, you could just say I'm your visitor. No one would recognize me anyway.""Easy for you to say. Stay a little longer?""I wish I could." He kissed my lips. "Do me a favor and never wear that short out to anywhere. Not even outside this room."I got up from the bed and straightened up in front of the mirror. "Why? What's wrong with it?" Apart from my bum standing out from under, there was absolutely nothing else wrong with it. I was just thick."Do you really have to ask that? Come here." He ordered and I obeyed as I slowly crossed over to where he stood. Burying his head under my neck

~Mirabelle~"Good. Now those are all the staffs you need to know about for the now. There are hundreds lots more. And finally, Mr Lee Jung. The CEO of this branch corporation," Dad introduced. The mid-forties looking man standing in front of me smiled. "Mr Lee, meet my daughter. The apple of my eye. And now the acting president of Kgroup. Not just the Corp alone. Kgroup as a whole."The man held out his hand for me. "It's an honor to meet you, Ms. Kenton."I blushed. "Um please no. Call me Mirabelle. Mira, is fine by me." I said, taking his hand."Mira, it is. And uh, Mira, have you seen your office?""No, she hasn't, yet." Dad answered for me. I smiled. "Well, I think it's high time you see it. We've been waiting for a long time now.""Waiting for a long time? As in, waiting for me?" I answered with a confused look.He didn't answer but his silence gave him away. "So dad, you've been planning this for a long time now?""We'll talk about this later, Mirabelle. For now, I'd like you t

~Mirabelle~"Mira, you're back."Hell no. Her face couldn't be the first thing I see this evening. I turned and started for my room."Mira, I'm talking to you.""Please mom. Not now. Let's not start now. I am honestly not in a position to argue with you.""I just want to know how you've been and how your first day at Kgroup went.""Really? You really want to know that? Why? Is that more important than my well being? Is that more important than my mental health? Well, I guess it is.""Mira. I only wanted to talk.""Well, here's the thing. I don't want to talk to you. Ever." With that I brushed past her and started for my room.~About an hour later, a knock came on my door. "Who's there?""Gen.""Come in." The door pushed open and she walked in. "Hey,""Hey,""Dad told me today was your first day at Kgroup. How was it?"I pushed away my laptop and leaned back on my bed. "It was fine till I attended the board meeting."She moved round and sat on my bed. "Why, what happened at the board

~Mirabelle~Mason King. I typed search on Google and waited."Mason King. Twenty eight years old billionaire. Vice president to Mr Kurt Kenton; the president, founder and owner of Kenton's group." His long line of degrees and net worth were stated. I ignored it and scrolled further "Relationship status - Single. Other businesses - Owner and Chef; Y. Mel restaurant, owner of Davinos clubs and resorts. Known relatives - Mom, (Divorced), An aunt, A sister and a younger brother. Other information withheld.""But you just gave out all the information," I said and shook my head. I wondered if this what he wanted the public to know or maybe their life was built on the spotlight for such details to be uploaded online most especially the part stating his mom was divorced. Was that really necessary? A knock came on the door."Come in."The doors slid open and Sarah walked in. "Hey.""Hey,""I just brought the fruits you needed.""Alright, stack them up in the fridge." I told her and went to wh

~Mirabelle~Neatly tucked in a black gown and grey suit jacket, matched on with grey heels and black bag, I made my way into the boardroom for the so called fixed meeting."I'm sorry I'm late." I said and took my seat. They were all already seated and I could definitely see the look of impatience in their eyes."This isn't a fashion show, Ms. Kenton," Marie, Head of supplementary department stated. "At least, learn to be punctual to meetings like this.""Excuse you? But I just said sorry, didn't I? What's the fuss about then? And are you forgetting who you're talking to?""Mirabelle," This was the first time I had heard Mr Jung say my name and not the regular Ms. Kenton. "That's enough. Let's start now.""Mm hm," Mason King cleared his throat. "So we've come to a decision based on the K implantable bio-stimulant device." An awkward silence filled the room. "We will sell to the government and to the hospitals as well.""What?" Marie was the first to speak up. Fred Donald, chief officia

~Mirabelle~"Just put those over there, Greg.""Yes ma'am." He said and moved the files to the shelf."Thank you--" I was interrupted when Mason walked in. The door was open, lucky him, I would have made him wait the same way he made me wait the first time I went to his office to see him. "Hey.""Good morning." He greeted and dumped a couple of documents on my desk. "They need your signatures.""Oh. Well okay. I'll sign them later." He nodded and was heading out. "And Mason?"He halted. "Yes?""You could have just sent your secretary to deliver these.""I just wanted to see how you were doing.""Oh. You're pretty straightforward, aren't you?""What's the point of not being straightforward?""Well, it gets too boring, sometimes. And Mason?"He rolled his eyes. "Yes? Mira?""Thank you for yesterday. I don't usually express myself to random people so telling you all that yesterday, it was all so new for me considering the fact that you're someone I don't know. You could use all I told yo
