Warnings and discoveries

Dominic POV I was in my office when my secretary called to tell me that Alexa had called. When I answered the phone, I received the most shocking news of my life. Zenobia never showed up at the dance studio, according to what I was told. I was perplexed and attempted to contact Charlene to find out why they were not attending the dance studio. Charlene refused to pick up my phone, and when I tried calling my daughter, I received the same response because she refused to pick up my calls. I couldn't figure out what was going on with her at the time, but I knew they had to be together because they were ignoring my calls. "Teresa," I called out. "I would like you to cancel all of my appointments today because I have something I need to deal with," I explained. "But you have an afternoon meeting with the investors, and they are already on their way to the hotel," she reminded me. I rubbed my brow, remembering why the investors were coming to see my company, but I needed to know what wa

Family bonds

Charlene POVI was still shaken up from what had happened in the garage earlier. I couldn't believe that I would be the reason why Dominic and Zenobia wouldn’t talk to one another any longer. When it was time for dinner, Zenobia didn't come down to eat. I could understand her reasons for not coming down, but I couldn’t figure out why she had decided not to eat. I wished I could get them to sit together again to talk like a normal family.I fidgeted in my seat, my fork hovering over my plate. Despite the mouthwatering aroma wafting from the food, I couldn't bring myself to bite. Not with Dominic shooting daggers at me from across the table. I wished he could speak up and speak his mind rather than stare at me as if I had done something terrible.I tried not to let it bother me. I knew I was in the wrong for keeping the secrets about the garage from him, but his cold silence was almost suffocating. I glance at him from under my lashes, taking in the clench of his fist and the way his fi

The project

Dominic POV As I finished telling Alexa about my daughter's decision to withdraw from dance school, my phone rang. My mother's name flashed on my screen, and I answered it immediately. I knew that Alexa had reported to her immediately since they both worked in the same place together. "Hello, Mom," I said, trying to sound cordial. "Good afternoon, Dominic," my mother replied a hint of disapproval in her tone. "Why have you changed your mind about Zenobia's dance lessons?" she asked. ‘’I thought that Alexa would be the best coach for the international competition, and since Zenobia wanted her, she might as well learn from her. Why did you change your mind about it so fast?’’ more questions were thrown at me, and I heaved a sigh before answering them. "Mom, Zenobia is not comfortable in Alexa’s dance school, and she told me she wanted a change of coach. She's starting to like Charlene, and Charlene might be the one to train her for the competition." My mother didn’t say a word un

is this real?

Charlene POV "If you let me down on this deal, I can assure you that you will be sorry for everything," Those were Dominic's words to me as we drove to the small town for the dance festival. Since they were on break, Zenobia offered to be a part of the festival, and Dominic had no choice but to accept her request. I couldn't believe I'd agreed to be the orphanage dance coach. I hadn't danced in a long time, but something about the kids' enthusiasm had convinced me to take on the challenge, and thanks to Zenobia for putting her faith in me. Dominic was beginning to see me in a new light. Dominic and I traveled to the small town where the orphanages were located, along with Zenobia. I couldn't help but notice Dominic's gaze on mine every few seconds as we drove. "What?" I inquired, looking over at him. I was perplexed why he kept staring at me as if he wanted to say something. "Nothing," he said quickly, his gaze returning to the road. But I could feel his gaze burning into my sk

Stay away from Edward.

Dominic Maximus Pov I clenched my fist as I watched Edward and Charlene speak. They were utterly oblivious to my presence, as if I didn't exist. My frustration boiled over, and I groaned out loud, unable to contain my anger. I had no idea why they acted as if I wasn't there. For goodness sake, I was in charge of the dance festival.What was Charlene doing with Edward? Did she not know he was the last person I wanted to see her with? And why did Charlene have that smug expression on her face?"what the hell are those two discussing?" I seethed. I frowned deeply, my mind racing with a million different thoughts. My jealousy and anger took over, and I could feel my blood boiling.But as I took a deep breath and tried to calm myself down, I realized that I couldn't let my emotions get the best of me. I needed to figure out what was happening between Edward and Charlene and why it bothered me. I was not supposed to be jealous of them. What the hell was this feeling? I thought. I stepp

The Tension between us

Charlene POV I stepped into the large, empty room with wooden floors, the excitement in my heart barely containable. Today, I'm here to teach ballet to the children of the orphanage, and I can hardly wait to start. As I lead the children to the floor, classical music begins to play. They start moving, their arms and legs extending in perfect unison, and I feel my heart swell with pride. But then, I noticed that one of the girls, Mary, struggled to maintain her balance. Her legs wobble as she tries to follow the movements, and her expression is one of frustration. I stopped the class and moved to Mary. "Mary, it's okay. Don't worry if you're having trouble with your balance. Dancing ballet takes practice, and it's okay to fall sometimes. Let's work together to find your center of balance." "I'm sorry, Miss Charlene," Mary said, her voice trembling. "I want to do it right, but I keep falling." "That's okay, Mary. You're doing great. Let's try this - place one hand on the barre and

The desires intensified

Dominic POV I sat in the conference room, trying to focus on the presentation in front of me. But my thoughts kept drifting back to Charlene. She was a constant distraction, even though I hated her. There was something about her that I couldn't shake, no matter how hard I tried.The kiss that we shared yesterday was something I never expected would happen. I was supposed to hate this woman for everything she had done to me but instead, I was thinking about her. I leaned back in my chair and closed my eyes, taking a deep breath. I couldn't afford to let my emotions get in the way of business, especially not when it came to Charlene. She was a thorn in my side but that thorn was starting to become a rose. "Mr. Maximus, I have Charlene on the line for you," my assistant said, interrupting my thoughts.I opened my eyes and nodded, reaching for the phone on the table in front of me. "Put her through," I said, my voice sounding gruffer than I intended.What the hell was she calling me fo

The Dance of Love

Charlene POV I stepped into the dance studio, the sound of music and laughter filling my ears. The children in my class greeted me with cheers and smiles, and I couldn't help but smile back at them."Hi, Miss Charlene!" they shouted."Hello, everyone!" I replied, trying to keep my excitement contained.As I walked around the room, I noticed Mary headed towards me and when she reached my side, she smiled at me. "Hey Mary," I greeted her, and she didn't reply instead, she moved closer to Zenobia and grabbed her hand. "We have something that we would love to show you," Mary announced. My eyes widened and I exchanged looks with Zenobia who nodded in response. "watch us as we dance Miss Charlene," Mary announced and then the music started playing in the room. I sat at the back of the dance studio, watching Mary and my stepdaughter Zenobia show off their dance routine. They moved in perfect synchronization, their bodies gliding across the floor as the music filled the room.I couldn't h

A failure?

Charlene POV I heaved a deep sigh as I stared at the group of children behind the curtain. It was the final rehearsal before the festival that was going to take place the following day, and I wanted everything to be perfect. As their teacher and mentor, I had been working with them tirelessly for weeks, and I wanted them to do their very best. "Are you all ready?" I asked them and they all nodded their heads at me. "you already know how it will go so, Zenobia and Jackson will go first then the rest of you will follow okay?""yes, Miss Charlene," They all responded. I gave the children a high five, telling them to give it their all. They all cheered for me and hugged me, and I couldn't help but smile. Seeing them happy and excited made all the hard work worth it. when I looked through the curtain for the second time, my heart skipped a beat. Alexa had come, and I never expected to see her there. My eyes widened as I took in her presence. It made me wonder who had invited her. Was

The Dance festival 1

Charlene POV The dance festival was finally here and I couldn’t be happier because I was able to teach the children for three weeks and bond with all of them. I never expected that someone who was rejected by society's few backs was starting to get back on her feet. I had thought that I wouldn’t be accepted by anyone but the accident that brought Zenobia and me together changed everything. It made me feel like a different person and I was grateful for that. ‘’I am so ready!’’ Zenobia shouted to Jackson as they both stretched. I smiled as I watched them and then I looked around me to see how the children were conversing with one another. The ballerinas had pink dresses on and the hip-hop dancer had a jean and white round necks on. They were all ready to dance that night and so was I. I joined the girls in dressing in a pink dress and it was the first time that I was going to dance on the stage again after five years. ‘’hey miss Charlene,’’ Jackson walked up to me.’’I am so gratefu
