131. Slow Rejection 

 Elliot's POV Zia sat on the plush white leather stool, combing her hair in front of the large dressing mirror while I sat on the bed, taking sips of my whiskey. The large bedroom walls, adorned with rich velvet drapes, matched the sheen dark hardwood floors.  The light from the crystal chandelier hung from the ceiling, casting a warm, soft glow over the space. The dressing table was made of mahogany wood, and expensive perfume bottles sat on the table with her jewelry boxes.  Zia was engrossed in her reflection, combing her thick, silky hair with the blue comb. I raised my glass of whiskey to my lips, my eyes fixed on her. I looked down at my navy blue trousers as I changed my sitting position to hide my growing bulge.

132. Making A Deal With An Enemy

  Elliot's POV I sat on the sand, watching the horses run free on the ranch. It felt nice and quiet to be in the open. It had been two days since I made the call. Zia no longer had time for me. She acted differently and smelled of a different perfume anytime she came back from her business meetings or whatever she called it.  I noticed her spy, Pamela, wasn't giving as much information as before. I could only guess she had been discovered and changed sides, or she had other plans with Zia.  I checked my phone and dialled the number my Intel had sent me. Of course, this was an untraceable call. It rang, and he picked.  “That's odd. I was expecting him to be more difficult,” I thought. I had gotten

133. Smelt Trouble

Zia’s POV“Cling clang,” my heels clattered against the tiled floor like a metronome marking the time. I paced back and forth across the room. I stopped for a bit to check the time on my phone. I didn't like stress, and I was doing just that. My exotic designer attire, made of a sleek black Versace dress with intricate gold embroidery, shimmered on my body, nicely fitted to show my curves. Elliot sat on the plush sofa, doing nothing and being useless, sipping his wine nonchalantly. How could he be calm while I was not relaxed? He looked away from the glass in his hand and stared at me with a mixture of amusement and annoyance.“What?” I asked in disbelief.“Zia, darling. Can you sit down for a bit? You're making a lot of holes in the floor.” Elliot said, his voice dripping with sarcasm. I spun around, angry at his words. “Shut up, Elliot!” I snapped, my voice echoed off the walls. He raised an eyebrow but said nothing and took another sip of his wine. I continued to pace back and

134. Making Him Jealous

  Zia’s POV With burning anger, I stormed into my home office, slamming the door behind me. I let out a scream, showing my frustration.  It felt better after I did that, and I paced back and forth, my mind racing with the thoughts of Elliot not falling for my wimps. He used to be so obedient. What had gotten into him? My feet gave way, and I fell to the floor. “ouch,” I growled. “It's all his fault.”I rose from the floor, dusted my dress, and collapsed into my chair, exhausted and angry at everything. “This is not my day,” I thought.  “Elliot, what exactly are you playing?” I asked no one. My thoughts w

134. Her Doom

Elliot's POV“We? You honestly expect me to believe you have my best interest. Share what company? Zia, I know you. You're selfish as hell, and you're just looking for a scapegoat, but I will not be one.” I replied to Zia with a cold look and walked out on her. Once I got to my room, I laughed, not because I felt used, but because she was more stupid than I thought. Did she think her plan would go through? Without wasting time, I dialed a number. “Morning, boss.” He answered.“You did well with all the drama. I'll have the balance sent to you. Do well to keep a low profile.” I said with a relaxed mind. “Of course, boss.” The receiver responded and hung up. Zia thought she was so clever to double-cross me. She had no intention of helping me clear my name. I had seen her through the crack in her office door talking on the phone. For a person who loved to scheme, she wasn't fast to catch on to everything I did. I ruined her phone to have enough time to get someone repaired, and I ha

136. Touche

ToucheElliot's POV“I wonder if you'll be able to talk if your tongue is cut off,” Zia snarled. I stopped smiling as I noticed the men turn their gaze to me. “Bully,” I murmured and walked out of the room, climbing the stairs to my room.“Elliot!” Zia yelled. “What did she want this time?” I thought and shrugged my shoulders. Her heels kept making clunking sounds as she walked up the stairs, and with a huge force, she pushed my door open. “You!” She yelled. I looked at her like she had lost some screws in her brain. “You're behind this, aren't you?” She asked, her eyes flashing daggers at me. “Me?” I queried, surprised at her outburst. “And where are your manners? Shouldn't you know before entering?”“This is my house, and I can come here anytime and anyhow I want!” Her voice gave me the chills. “You're never going to stop reminding me, huh? Some rich helper,” I answered and went back to ignoring her. “Elliot! Listen to me. I am talking to you!” Her voice now raised in high pi

137. She's Down

Elliot's POV“How long do we have to wait? It's getting late, and we need her here before she makes other plans,” Zia's voice spoke behind me. She was pacing again. Why did she have to be so impatient every time?I adjusted my gloves and cleaned all fingerprint traces I might have made. “Be patient, Zia. Don't you love suspense?” I asked.Zia rolled her eyes and spoke coldly. “Right now, I don't need that. I need her here, begging for her life. I just eliminated two problems, and she won't be the third.”“Someone get me a phone,” Zia demanded and eyed me suspiciously, her hand outstretched.“What are you…?” I sighed as I realized what she wanted me to do. “You want me to make the move.” She said nothing and dialed a number. I raised an eyebrow and stretched my hand to collect the phone. “Why? You're scared?” I asked, playing along with her charade. “We’re in this together. Besides, I need to trust you more,” Zia responded in a fake sweet voice. I nodded, understanding her game. “Ok

138. Breakthrough Limelight

Rayne's POVThe sun's warmth peeked through the glass windows, waking me up. I stretched my arms and yawned. My hair was a tangled mess like Anna from Frozen. My hair never let me have a sweet and complete beauty awakening for once. My pajamas were wrinkled from a night of tossing and turning because I couldn't sleep. Nathan had to cuddle me before I could let him rest in peace. I swung my legs over the side of the bed, another yawn escaping my lips. My feet softly planted firmly on the ground. Nathan was still fast asleep, making light snores. His chest rose and fell with each gentle breath. He always looked handsome with his thick hair, and his jawline made me want to purr. “God, I married a fine man,” I whispered, and he smiled in his sleep. Was he awake? “Nathan,” I whispered to him, but he was still asleep. I didn't want to disturb him, so I gently slipped out of bed, put on my feather-soft slippers, and went to the garden. I needed the fresh air and gentle breeze to clear my

139. Make A Wish

Rayne's POV“Are you ready, babe?” Nathan asked, briefly taking my attention from the files with evidence of Zia’s shady deals. Dad had smartly made multiple copies, or I would have resigned to my fate. “Yes, I'm ready,” I answered, and Nathan picked up the files, clutching them at once with the recordings Pamela had provided us. “Good. You look tense. I'm going with you,” Nathan spoke softly to my ears, and I nodded. The drive to the police station brought more tension than the relaxation I hoped for. I kept letting out gasps of breath. Nathan held my hand to calm me. “I don't know why I am nervous,” I said between laughter. “It's fine, sweetie. Everything is going to be okay. Scared?” He asked, stroking my hair.I nodded, remembering the past incident almost costing Elvis and me our lives. Elvis was off duty today and was fully recovered. “It's okay. I'm here for you. Nothing's going to happen to you. I promise,” Nathan's soft voice sang to my ears. We arrived at the police st
