Reconsidering the Future

DESTINY"What? Why would you keep quiet about it?" I exclaimed, my voice filled with shock and disbelief. My fingers clenched tightly into the armrests, feeling the cold, smooth texture beneath my fingertips. How long had he known about it and never told anyone?"Destiny, love, it wasn't me! I just found out a couple of nights ago when I went to my father's place," James explained, his voice filled with urgency. I could hear the desperation in his tone as he reached for my hand, seeking reassurance."What else are you keeping from me, James?" I demanded, my frustration mounting. The weight of his secrets and lies had become unbearable. The file he had on the kidnapper, the photographs, everything. And now, to find out that Ronan, his best friend, was also involved. It was too much. I stood up abruptly and made my way to the door, my footsteps echoing in the room."I just need a minute," I muttered as I stepped out of the office. The bustling sounds of the city filled my ears as I stoo

The Viper

JAMESI burst through the glass door, entering the sunlight flooded office. Ronan and three officers, of which Inspector Gordon was one, turned around to stare at the unwelcome intrusion.Ronan rounded his steel and chrome desk to approach me. “Jimmy? What the hell…” He gaped at me, a deep furrow forming on his forehead.“Yes, Ronan. What the hell indeed!” All my intentions not to throttle the truth out of him went flying out the window and I couldn’t give a rat’s ass who was present as I bore down on him. My fist curled around the front of his shirt, crumpling the smooth fabric as I forcefully brought him down to my eye level. He was half a head taller than I, his presence dominating the room.Even though Ronan was bulkier and more muscled, I surprised him by my sudden attack. I intended to headbutt him, but he gripped my wrists, his grip strong and unyielding and pushed back. Our eyes locked in an intense battle. Grunting and panting, I struggled with him, the adrenaline coursing th

Father and Son

DESTINYWe drove back to the house in tense silence, the only sound being the hum of the engine. James occupied the front seat, his gaze fixed on the road ahead, while Luke took the wheel. The atmosphere made me acutely aware of the growing distance between James and me.As we approached our gate, a sense of unease washed over me. To our surprise, the gate stood wide open, and Lord Barrington's sleek limousine was parked in the driveway."What the hell is he doing here?" James muttered, his impatience evident. Without wasting a moment, he leaped out of the car and rushed towards the house. I followed suit, with Luke trailing behind me."Luke, please wait outside," I pleaded, not wanting him to be involved in the impending confrontation."I'll be within shouting distance, Destiny," Luke replied reluctantly, his apprehension palpable. He reluctantly obliged my request.As soon as I stepped foot into the house, angry voices echoed through the air, assaulting my ears. I quickly made my wa

Revelation

JAMESStart acting like a father, she said. What a laugh! The words my father said echoed in my mind, their bitter taste lingering on my tongue. I destroy everything I touch, according to him. Maybe he was right. Strange now that I think about it, I never really cared for the Barrington fortune, nor for the company. But now that everything might be taken away, I am left with a nagging worry, like a knot tightening in my chest. How would I be able to provide for Destiny and this child if I lost it all?“She’ll take your child and you will be left penniless and alone.” Those words stuck in my mind on repeat like a broken vinyl record, the scratchy sound echoing through my thoughts.But when I look into the depths of those green eyes, looking at me with all the sincerity of her soul, I want to believe her, to believe that no matter what, she will stay. The soft touch of her hand on my arm sent a shiver down my spine, a gentle warmth seeping into my skin.“You should stop obsessing, James

Repentant Ronan

DESTINYRonan's face bore the unmistakable signs of truth, etched with a mixture of pain and guilt. James, sitting on the edge of the couch, seemed ready to snap like a tightly wound wire. The atmosphere in the room was thick with tension.With a strained voice, James cut through the silence, his body tense and ready to pounce. "You'd better be lying. My grandfather?!" His words hung in the air, heavy with disbelief.Ronan winced, his face turning a deep shade of crimson. "They blackmailed me, Jimmy. There was some damning footage of me with two girls. They threatened to expose it to the media." The color drained from Ronan's face as he continued, "I swear, I didn't know they were underage.""Jeezus..." James hissed, his voice a mix of anger and shock. He stood abruptly, facing the window with his back to the others in the room. The weight of the situation was unbearable, and I found myself unable to meet Ronan's gaze."Goddammit, Ronan! Why didn't you come to me? I could have helped

Nothing to Hide

JAMESThey meticulously combed through every inch of my study, running their hands over every surface. The sound of drawers being pulled open and papers being rustled filled the air. Mrs. D stood nearby, with a disapproving scowl as she observed the chaos they left behind. The smell of dust and must lingered in the room, a result of their thorough search."Master Jimmy, do they really need to turn everything upside down?" Mrs. D questioned, her voice filled with concern. "Who do they think is going to clean up this mess?"I reassured her with a pat on her shoulder. "Don't worry, Mrs. D. They're just wasting their time," I said, giving her a playful wink. Luckily, Luke had taken care of disposing of the burner phones, ensuring there was no evidence linking me to Jenna.Time seemed to drag on as they continued their fruitless search. Hours passed, and my once orderly house now resembled the aftermath of a tornado. But just as I thought their invasion was over, they found something.“Eh?

Family Emergency

DESTINYI watched the police take James away, with so many unanswered questions and doubts roiling through my mind. Has he been taking drugs all this time without me knowing it? I had no experience in drug abuse, wouldn’t even know what signs to look for. Alcohol abuse was my only reference thanks to my dad, and James certainly didn’t fall into that category.Ronan’s heavy hand on my shoulder snapped me out of my thoughts. The weight of his touch on my shoulder made me acutely aware of his presence.“Destiny, I’m truly sorry for everything.” His voice held just enough remorse to sound sincere.“You know, I don’t think I’m ready to discuss this with you, Ronan,” I replied, my voice sharp with frustration and confusion. I shrugged off his hand, feeling a mixture of anger and vulnerability.“I just want you to know that you can rely on me for whatever you need. James isn’t the right man for you, Destiny.” And there it was, his true colors finally showing.“And you are?” I said cuttingly,

Problem Parents

JAMESI don’t know how Smythe did it, and I didn’t ask too many questions. I was just relieved to get the hell out of that god-awful cramped room. My first appearance would be in two days.“Just answer the questions as honestly and to the point as you can, Mr. Barrington,” Smythe had said during our long consultation.Honest and to the point. I was concerned. What if they asked questions I didn’t want to answer?***It was pitch dark when the Uber dropped me off at my gate. I didn’t have my phone or my keys with me. Feeling like a stranger lurking in the dark in front of my property, I pressed the intercom and Luke’s deep voice answered. “Yeah?”“It’s James. Open up.”Imagine my surprise when the lights turned on and I saw the old beaten-up Datsun parked in the driveway. Not this again! God knows I wouldn’t be able to stomach Aurora Johnson after all that happened. I thought we were rid of her. The gate slid open, and I dragged my feet, thinking of the best way to handle this situatio

Love You like the World is Ending

DESTINYWhile I busily prepared our dinner, James kept hovering around me, his eyes never leaving my every move. It felt as if he was afraid I would suddenly vanish. Once, I caught him staring at me with such a profound sadness in his eyes that it tugged at my heart, filling me with concern."Are you alright?" I asked, abandoning my tasks and rushing to his side, wanting to comfort him.But he swiftly composed himself, his expression instantly changing. "I'm fine," he replied, a faint smile gracing his lips. "You're overcooking the steak."Just then, Luke entered the kitchen, his overnight bag in one hand. "Hey, guys," he greeted us. "Will you be okay on your own? Thought I'd give you some alone time. There’s a friend nearby where I can stay tonight. I'll only be five minutes away if you need me."I couldn't help but smile at his considerate offer, as it reminded me of a child seeking permission for a sleepover. "I'm sure we can handle it. What do you think, James?"James winked at me

Lucky Break

JAMESWhile Destiny slept the sleep of innocence, restlessness consumed me as I tossed and turned. Eventually, I surrendered my futile attempts at sleep and retreated to my study. In the dimly lit solitude of my sanctuary, I contemplated and prepared in case everything went south, because fate had a cruel way of fucking with my life. Mr. Smythe appeared optimistic about the outcome of the trial. But knowing that my father was to testify against me had my mind in turmoil. I had to make provisions for Destiny and my unborn child. I wasn’t about to let them suffer because of my fucked-up family.Determined to protect them, I breathed a sigh of relief as I opened my banking app. It was a minor comfort to see that my accounts remained unfrozen. Thankfully, we had a prenuptial agreement safeguarding Destiny's funds. With a sense of satisfaction, I transferred a substantial sum into her account, ensuring she had enough to embark on a new life if something were to happen. Closing my laptop,
