As she fidgeted, she didn't notice that everything around her seemed to fade away until she turned and looked right at the receptionist who had just walked up to her, Sarah turned the corners of her mouth up in a smile meant just for herself. She drew a deep breath, horrified that she'd ruin her interview if she didn't compose." you may go in Miss. Rosewood. "Sarah rose from the butter-soft leather sofa, but she’d been sitting for so long her legs gave a credible impression of belonging to a premature newborn foal. She smoothed her damp hands down the front of her skirt, hitched her tote bag more se

THE SECRETS

Sarah was torn between wanting to tell him where to put his deal and not wanting him to see more of this vulnerable side of hers. She could agree to the charade verbally but he could hardly hold her to anything without having her sign something.'‘I’ll go with you to the hospital because I’ve always liked your father. That’s if you think he’d like to see me?’''‘He would like to see you,’' Sarah said and wiped off her tears .Drake searched through the papers on his desk for something, muttering a curse word in the process.'‘Is this what you’re looking for?'’ Sarah handed him the pages that had fallen from his desk. He probably thought he picked all but he didn't. He took it from her and, reaching for a pen, slid them in front of her on the desk. '‘Sign here.’'She ignored the pen and met his steely gaze. ‘'Do we have to do it now? my father is—'’'‘Sign it.’'Drake could feel her will preparing for battle. Her spine stiffened to concrete, her jaw set to stone and her gaze sent a

FAULTED EMOTIONS

Drake followed Sarah ito the private room where her father was being monitored prior to the transplant. Strict sterilisation procedures were being conducted and, according to the nurse, they would be a hundred times more stringent once the surgery was over.The old man was lying in a bed with medical apparatus tethering him seemingly from every limb. He opened his eyes when Sarah approached the bed and gave a weak smile. ‘'You made it in time.’'Sarah gently took her father’s hand in hers and Drake was touched to see the warmth and tenderness in Sarah’s gaze. Had he ever looked at her like that? As if she mattered more than anything at that moment? She felt guilty for thinking such thoughts at such a time with her father so desperately ill, but how could she not wish Drake had felt something more than just earthy lust for her?'‘I made it,’ Sarah said. ‘And I brought someone with me to see you.’'Her father looked to where Drake was standing and his weary bloodshot eyes lit up like s

FRIENDS

LOVE/INFATUATION

The look Eniola gave Sarah could have shriveled ducks from a mile away. She moved closer to Sarah, and her voice lowered to an angry hiss." You are joking, right?" “I have signed the contract Enny, I seriously can't believe myself either and the last thing I want is a bunch of paparazzi mucking up around me. "Eniola sips her glass of wine slowly with a look that says speechless" Are you really not going to say something?" "That's a potential way to say you are getting married, and the Drake I know is never going to put a ring on any woman ."Well, that explained the growly bear act. Eniola put on her most charming smile. “Congrats, love. Let's just drink for now ,hun?”“You can't let me get drunk, I have to go to the hospital very early tomorrow.”“Now, that would be a shame. I’d have to drink all by myself and wouldn’t find it fun?” Eniola’s smile remained easy despite the menace she was throwing down. “I’d hate to see you drink alone, I will just have a glass or two.”Sarah’s gl

A NIGHT OF MISTAKE

Morning sunlight struck her eyelids, drawing sleep back to the suppressed piece of her brain and effectively awakening her. Slowly, blue orbs were exposed to the dimly lit hotel room, and as they adjusted to the light pouring into them, as well as to the feeling of being cast from the dark recesses of her once sleep-stricken mind, objects in the room began to show up through the faintly blinding sunlight.A dresser was cast across the room sat beside a door she could only faintly remember belonging to a bathroom used to it's full capacity the night before. Set across from the doorway to the bathroom sat a balcony.The curtains connected to the balcony, shielding the sunlight only slightly, blew faintly through the minuscule crack between the glass door and the wall keeping it in place. Like a silk blanket, the warm smell of cinnamon, sex - or rather passion and love mingled together in one wonderful scent - and what almost seemed like...A brief and tired smile struck her lips as she r

LOVE PRESSURE

" we leave tonight." Drake said to her face immediately she entered his office" You can't just order me around." She flared up with anger" If this is about your dad Sarah,I have everything in control, I want you to go back home and pick few things you consider important.” Sarah gazed at him for a long moment, trying to decide what to do. She hadn’t noticed him look this heartless before. Not only that but he was also inconsiderate.Then, she is so regretting her decisions now." You have something to say?" Is this about last night?"Drake almost lost balance on his chair as he coughed profusely“ Drake can I at least spend some time with my dad?”" I need you to get back home Sarah. We don’t have time , and like I said I have everything in control."Without any other word she walked out immediately with a face that reads regret, she knows him to be heartless but never this worst .Bad Shit, she looked terrible. All woebegone and miserable, and she felt so damn bad that she

DATE NIGHT

But she’d been more than a little exhausted when they had pulled up to the hotel but seeing Brown Brooke walk towards them almost took away her tiredness , she was grateful it had stunned her to turn around and see the man she’d once crush on before she met Drake right at her elbow.He was just as good-looking as she’d remembered, too. Handsome, with that dark hair, chiseled jaw, and those gorgeous eyes she could stare into for hours.He was also shorter than she remembered. That had been disappointing, No one wanted to date a string bean, as she’d been told a million times before. But her dream guy hadn’t commented on her height at all. In fact, he’d kissed her hand, charmed her figurative socks off, and invited her to dinner and then ended things in the room. And now, here she was with less than four hours of sleep, after the trip down here .“ Drake wants me to bring Sarah with me .”“But he just left without me.” Sarah answered sharply as Ashrof muttered something on his pho
