A shameless woman

Alexis woke up in the morning only to find herself wrapped in strong muscular arms. It shocked her to see the person was Maverick. As much as she knew there was an attraction between the doctor and her. She panicked and tried to get away..how on Earth did she end up in such a predicament"Oh no," she mouthed as she fixed her eyes on Maverick. He had refined features, from his thin red lips to his beautiful closed eyes. The contours of his face were rare and exceptional. She had seen handsome men before but Maverick was something else. So peaceful and caring. Recalling what had happened between them the previous day. She felt her cheek burning up from embarrassment."Stop staring"Maverick mumbled in a sleepy voice unexpectedly startling Alexis who was caught staring. She quickly averted her eyes from him and prepared to run away from the bed when the man suddenly trapped her. A warm shiver ran down her spine feeling Maverick's hands on her shoulder"Good morning...did you sleep well?"

A single father

(Vivienne)"So is the little miss here for some work or is she stalking me?"Mauricio said with a smug plastered on his face. The man was trying hard to be in my good books but the fact that he was Victor's rival put him at a disadvantage"No...if you excuse me I have a friend to see" I said faking a smile and was about to walk past him when he grabbed my arm and pulled me back "excuse me" I shot him a warning glare and he chuckled nervously and removed his hand from mine"My apologies but I just wanted to invite you out for lunch...you intrigue me every time I see you, "Mauricio said, still smiling at me. I disliked his friendliness. "No...look here, Mauricio...I'm not interested...I have a man already so it won't work"I told him straight without giving anything away. I didn't have to entertain him for so long because he was starting to take advantage and think I obliged his advances"So Victor is the one you want... Vivie, why do you want to involve yourself with such a man?" he sai

Manipulation

(Vivienne)"Do you know how important that was to her...how can you be so careless", I watched as the man vented his anger on me. Monica was yelled at to leave and she left immediately. I noticed one thing. Victor had anger issues, he got angry very easilyThere was no such thing as a perfect man because the man was something else"Do you know how devastated she is…" the man said and I looked at him with a blank expression. For a second I thought he found out about Skylar being my daughter but it turned out it was about Skylar's school function. I was such a fool to forget about thatDamn it I completely forgot about that. I didn't even take the newsletter her principal gave me because of that mysterious call. This was bad. Victor was angry because our daughter was left out,"Sir...I didn't mean to forget...I had…""Your job as a babysitter is to make sure you know exactly what's happening...you are failing me, Ms. Payton, "Victor said, cutting me off before I could say anything. I no

Spending time with her daughter

"Leo...thanks for the ride, but…" Cassy said with hesitation. Leo had been nothing but kind to her just like before, it seemed his kind nature hadn't changed one bit...she appreciated that more than anything. He defended her when it was needed, but he had to know this wasn't before. As much as she was happy, he was willing to be the agency model. He didn't have to do it because of her"Won't you let me in...for coffee?" he said showing his billion-dollar smile making Casey even more uncomfortable. He dropped her off at the hotel where she was staying, and she was avoiding letting him in. "No...well, Leo, I'm too exhausted now...it's late and I…" it was hard to give a valid excuse to keep him away. She asked her babysitter to stay for a few hours more before she got back, but now it was nearly 8 PM which was overtime"I know but just coffee, and I'll be out...let's chat and catch up"Leo still insisted. He didn't even let her say anything when he dragged her away from the parking area

She forgot herself

Vivienne was woken up by a sharp strong suffocating smell which made her unable to breathe causing her to jerk up from her slumber panting and gasping for air. Her hand ran over her face and rubbed her eyes which seemed to be burning as she tried to figure out if she just had a nightmare. As her eyes opened fully, it came as a great shock for her to find the room in total darkness..it was like a forest filled with fog making it impossible for her to do anything..fear rushed through her as she jerked up only to realize what was happening"No...no..cough...what's going...on,?" the burning sensation on her throat caused her to cough violently as she patted on the bed and found "Sky...no no...baby" she reached for Skylar who was fast asleep. She didn't know if she was just sleeping or had gone unconscious due to a lack of oxygen in the room. Something was burning and she had no idea what to do..she didn't remember leaving anything on so where did the fire come from"Ahh," a scream left h

In critical condition

"Mavi, tell me she's alright...how...how did this happen?"Alexis panicked as she came running. Maverick was fast enough to stop her from crashing into anything. It was rare to see her so worked up but what had happened earlier had left everyone shaken. Vivienne was in critical condition and Victor was doing everything possible to save her life"She suffered a lot of burns and inhaled too much smoke...I'm afraid…"Maverick said hesitantly as he scratched the back of his head awkwardly knowing full well things had turned out bad"What's it...is it bad...tell me nothing should happen to Vivie"Alexis couldn't take it anymore as tears flooded her face. The thought of Vivienne getting hurt was something she couldn't stand. Who knew what happened so suddenly. How did her apartment catch fire when she recalled talking to Vivienne? She was happy having Skylar's sleepover. Both talked over the phone for a while and she knew how her friend was happy. Vivienne was always careful. "She suffered fr

Avoiding everyone

It was shocking how Victor walked right past all of them. Even when Maverick, who came back just in time, asked him how Vivienne was doing... Victor ignored him and left from there. Leo was twice as surprised by Victor's behavior. They all thought something bad had happened to Vivie and hence got tense however when Justin came out. He told them the good news"Did something happen...why is he like this...when Vivie is stable" Leo whispered only for Maverick and Justin to hear. The three men stood outside Vivienne's room. Since Alexis and Cassy went in to see her. They stayed wondering why the man was ignoring everyone."Not sure...he's been like this for quite some time...he didn't even let me help him, "Justin said, still confused. He knew Victor was a formidable doctor when it came to serious matters but during the entire process, they were attending to Vivienne. He didn't seem like himself"Maybe...he's just worried about Vivie...this was sudden for him"Maverick chimed in and said h

Suppressing anger

Leo's eyes were glued to the reports in his hands. This was something else. How did this happen? Yes he spent a night with Cassy that he recalled but the two never spoke about itHe wanted to talk to her about what happened between them but she was avoiding him. He thought she regretted the night they spent together with how she was acting as if nothing happened"Leo, you know what to do...I know you love Monica but...it's a child we are talking about"Vivienne's voice brought him back from his trail of thoughts as his eyes shifted to her. When Cassy came back to London Vivie was the first to see her; later he was informed by his manager that he saw Cassy with a little boy and he was her son. Of course, Leo didn't believe any of it until Vivie said the same thing to her. When did Cassy have a child? Did she get back to her ex-boyfriend? He knew she had a boyfriend but they broke up. He did a little digging but unfortunately, he found out Blake, Cassy's ex, was already married. He had t

The biological mother

(Vivienne)"So...why are you sad huh?"Cassy asked as she sat beside me. I was dying to get out of the god-forsaken bed and leave the damned hospital. This was bad. I didn't want to stay here any longer. Of course, services were top-notch, VIP and all the nurses and doctors were at my disposal but I just didn't like hospitals...they gave me chills and all"Is little Archie okay…."I asked instead, ignoring her question. I wasn't sad but worried. It had been like a week plus days of being in the hospital. Everything seemed normal...I had my friends visit me, it was heartwarming to receive so much love from these people..Alexis practically spent her nights here since she had to go to work. It was impossible to get rid of her, I asked Maverick to reason with her unfortunately she didn't want to leave me alone"He's fine...I took him out for ice cream yesterday... Cassy, hasn't he tried ice before?"Alexis answered instead as she turned away from the window she had been standing at and Cassy

A need for fresh air

Monica's world came crashing down as she feasted her eyes on the DNA results in her hands. This wasn't happening. This isn't what she hoped things would turn out. "No...this can't be...sobs...sobs...this is a lie...no!"Monica shouted, throwing the papers away as tears rained down her face... "Skylar is my sister's child, not that girl's child…"Monica said furiously as she wiped her tears with the back of her hand. Martha smirked as she leaned back to her chair and fixed her eyes on Monica weeping hysterically"Of course...she deceived everyone... Moni, what did you expect from a girl like her?"Martha said bitterly..her eyes sharp as a blade that could pierce through anything. Monica was shattered, she never knew everything would turn out like this. Skylar was the only one keeping her sane knowing her sister left without a word."She saw a wealthy man like Victor... depressed and without a wife...she did this to trap Vic" Martha added with a hand slam on the desk such that the deafeni
