The Beginning of the end

Connor made way for his office and he couldn't help but be proud of Scott because of how he handled the company in his absence. There wasn't any loss of any sort and instead, the company rose in stocks. Scott Rogers came inside the company with his head ducked while folding his hands behind his back as he fiddled with his fingers. Connor's eyes traveled from his face to his shirt that was unbuttoned and as much as Connor was proud of him, he couldn't help but lash out at him for being so oblivious to the fact that a button was missing.Connor swirled slowly in his swivel chair before making the chair come to an abrupt stop. Connor stood from his chair and sauntered toward Scott Rogers who quivered in fear. He placed his hands on his shoulder, patting him slowly on the shoulder."I am curious about something. Is it because I left the company in your care and that made you think that you are the new boss?" Connor said in an eerily calm tone that sent shivers down one's spine.Connor's

Burn

The smug smile that stretched on Liliana's lips ended up infuriating Connor as he raised a brow and glared furiously at Liliana with his fist clenched by his side. Her words kept resounding in his ear and no matter how much he tried to process what she meant by the beginning of the end.Connor leaned in the chair with his hands crossed over his chest as he nibbled on his lips. He kept his gaze fixed on Liliana who stared at him with eyes devoid of emotion. For a second, he was starting to wonder where she got the sudden boldness from and how she went from pleading for mercy to being embroidered in the apparel of boldness."What do you mean by this is the beginning and not the end?" Connor asked as he cocked his brow to the left with his arms still crossed over his chest.Liliana chuckled lightly as she expelled a sigh and shook her head slowly. "Why are you curious? Do you think that I would be defeated just because you got me arrested? Do you think that a mere arrest would stop me f

The one

The bomb blast was still a mystery to Connor as he stood at a distance watching how the remains of Liliana were lowered six feets under the ground. His throat suddenly went dry and that was because of the guilt that he felt inside of him.Different voices kept screaming in his head that he was the reason for her death because if he hadn't gotten her arrested, then she would have been alive till this day. It was such a miracle that he was there to witness her burial because her father dared to end his life if he ever spots Connor.However, after much pleading from Connor's parents and Connor trying to justify why he got Liliana arrested, he was finally allowed to witness her burial and that was on the condition that he must watch her being laid down from a distance. Carolina came in the company of Roseanne who held an umbrella for her and she stopped on her track when she caught sight of Connor who stood rigid on the same spot. She brushed her hands through her neck and motioned for R

An introduction

Connor's mother cocked her brow to the left as she glanced back and forth between Carolina and Connor. The look on her face was so deadly that if looks could kill, then she would have been long dead. Carolina's voice hitched as she brushed her fingers through her neck. Her stomach tied a knot and that was because of the state of nervousness that she was thrown in.She knew that if she didn't say a word, then would find herself in a situation that she doesn't want to find herself in. She was about to say a word when she suddenly recollected the word that she heard Connor say. Carolina turned to look at Connor as they both locked eyes together."The lady that I want to get married to?" Carolina repeated. When Connor caught on to what was going on at the moment, he pulled Carolina by the shoulder, squeezing her gently on the shoulder while flashing his white dental at his mum in an awkward manner.He leaned by his side a bit as he whispered into her ear."Just play along and don't say a

A joke

Carolina bit on the corner of her lower lips as she swallowed the heavy lump that formed in her throat. The same venom and coldness in his eyes that were evident on the day she had encountered him were still in his eyes. She suddenly felt cold air gushing through her skin and that was due to the cause of the cold aura that he exuded.Connor's father averted his gaze from Carolina and fixed his gaze on Connor."Isn't this the lady that I told you to send out of your house? Don't tell me that you later kept this lady by your side. Didn't you take my words seriously when I told you that you shouldn't keep an outsider by your side" Connor's dad yelled at him.Carolina was surprised as her mouth was slightly agape, wondering what was happening at the moment. She kind of wondered why Connor didn't tell her that his father disapproved of Connor keeping her by his side. Assuming she had known about his father's stance on her, she would have made sure that she met with Connor's father and told

His First Love

Connor's father blinked his eyes a couple of times as he retracted his step backward. As much as Connor was proud of Carolina for putting her father in his place, he didn't like how she addressed his whole existence as a joke. He wanted her to defend herself but he didn't expect her to be this disrespectful about it."Do you know who I am for you to talk to me like that? Do you have any respect? Do I look like your age mate that you can insult and go scot-free?" He yelled at the top of his lungs as Connor buried his face in his hands. Squeezing his eyes shut frustratedly.This wasn't how he was expecting his day to be. He wanted to mourn Liliana's death peacefully and from afar, but he didn't sign up for all the drama that was happening before him, and worst of all was that it was happening on the day of Liliana’s burial. He might have never loved her but he didn't want her to be disrespected like that and he knew that if he doesn't stop his father as fast as possible, then the issue

Human flame

"Mirabel?" Connor repeated as he stared intently at her. She smiled back in return and stretched her hand forward for a handshake. Carolina saw the way Connor's face lightened up on seeing her, causing her to wonder who Mirabel was.The lady whom Connor had addressed as Mirabel had long dark hair that fell on her back. Everything about her screamed class and with the way her simple outfits accentuated her curves, someone would know that she was drowned in luxury. "Yes, Mirabel" Connor and Mirabel both exchanged a handshake while Connor's eyes lit up as if he had seen a unicorn as he laughed awkwardly.Carolina raised a brow, wondering what was funny for him to laugh like that because if she could remember vividly, nobody talked about anything funny so why was he laughing like that?All of a sudden, it dawned on Connor that Mirabel shared a striking resemblance to the lady that he met at the hotel when he went on a business trip and she also shared a striking resemblance to the woman

Hate to love

Days after Liliana was buried, everything went back to normal and Connor apologized to his father about everything that had happened although he still hid the fact that Carolina was his mate and that he wanted to get married to her. Except for his mother who knew about his plans, she refused to support him despite how he tried to explain things to her.Connor came to the conclusion that the only way Carolina would be able to be accepted by his parents was for her to slowly bond with them, the same way Liliana did before her death. Connor adjusted his glasses as he sat on the chair in the study room. Different thoughts coursed through his mind as he slipped his hands through his hair and ruffled it with his hands. He wasn’t the type to always care about people or most especially about people who had stabbed him in the back. However, he was concerned about Luc and that wasn’t for the fact that he cared about Luc in any way but that was for the fact that he knew Luc cared for Liliana a

Past Memories

Carolina cringed at his statement as he buried his head on her shoulder and kissed her slowly on the neck. “You love me?” Carolina muttered, causing Connor to raise his head as a bright smile formed on his face. He was glad that he was finally able to confess that he loved her and every part of him ached to tell her about how he felt about her.Down to her hair, the way she smiles, and the way she talks except for when she talks to him rudely, he wanted to confess his feelings to her and let her know how he felt about her. He wanted his confession to hold more meaning and depth and not just the three words “I love you.”“Yes, I do. More than you can ever imagine. I love you and every part of you because literally, you are the reason why I can experience what it felt like to be in love with someone after a long period” Connor slurred as he pressed his lips against her neck.He placed his lips on hers but she quickly broke the kiss while she tilted her head slowly, lowering her head be

Clash of rage

Jerking forward, Carolina heaved an exasperated sigh as she typed on her laptop. A memo regarding a scholarship popped up on her phone and as much as she wanted to return to school. The fear of Connor held her back from doing what she wanted. Carolina held him in resentment but she was still scared about what he would do to her if he ever finds out that she was planning on going back to school without talking it with him first or maybe she was just overreacting and the only thing she needed was just to put her hope in him and strike a good conversation with him.“What do I do?” Carolina muttered under her breath leaning forward with her forearms as she cradled her head in her hands. She was in a dilemma that made her wonder if she would ever escape. She wanted to be free and happy but with the way things went, she doubted that she would be ever free and happy. It wasn’t that Connor had mistreated her in any way. Instead, he was the one who tolerated a lot of things from her without
