It was morning in HAVAN, the ambiance abuzz with anticipation of what the day was to hold, and at exactly 8:00 AM, the elevator doors slid open, as Skylar stepped out onto the last floor with elegance and poise, looking more gorgeous than ever. Dressed in a white three-piece tailored suit that accentuated her shape perfectly, she exuded sophistication as she walked down the hallway, her stunning heels clicking against the polished floor of the company. Her voluminous hair was no longer in its usual loose waves, but had been swept back up in a high ponytail, revealing the elegant curve of her neck, and her earrings which complemented her ears glinted beautifully whenever they caught the rays of light. To her, it was a mechanism to improve her confidence and be able to stand unfazed before Ivan, regardless of what he had to say about the uncomfortable situation they both had almost been placed in. She had also made up her mind to stop being so down, and being affected by his atti

Skylar had arrived minutes earlier than the time she and Carlos agreed to meet, and she sat comfortably at the spot in the classy restaurant that he had suggested via a friendly call earlier that morning before she left the house. Subconsciously, she adjusted the hem of her suit jacket nervously, smoothing out nonexistent wrinkles on her pants, as her eyes darted nonstop to the entrance which was miles away every few seconds. Her fingers tapped rhythmically on the table before, betraying her impatience and anxiety about the guy she was meeting, her mind trying to think of what to expect or how it would go. Earlier that day, Skylar had informed Ivan that she would like to leave as early as possible since she had nothing to do with Taylor around, but she was not sure that he was truly allowed to leave because he gave her a conflicting answer.“You can do as you please,” his response was curt, and she didn't know if he gave her permission or not. She had known Ivan long enough to kno

“Yes,” Carltos nodded affirmatively, “So I wanted to meet up with you, and Amelia was so willing. I wanted to know the real Skylar,” he had both his muscular hands resting beneath his jaws, as he continued to look at her without breaking eye contact. “Arh,” a knowing smile stretched Skylar's lips, as she broke eye contact with him, and quickly drank from the bottle of water she was taking initially, “There is nothing much to know. I am just still the same. Still working as much as before,” She chuckled nervously, hoping not to get him bored with talking about her work or life. She had a very boring life and nothing much to talk about even if she was asked about herself. She wasn't even sure she had anything she enjoyed doing in her spare time except working. “Amelia told me you work at a company, but that you will soon resign or something. Said you are job hunting?” He flashed her a questioning look, still fully focused on her. “Arhh. Funny,” Skylar mouthed, unable to believe t

The inner door of Ivan's house resonated strongly as he made his way inside, and slammed the automatic door so hard, frustration and weariness boiling through his blood like water. He hated how the day went so much that he was so stressed out from working, as he ran a hand through his dark hair, feeling the day's tension settling in his muscles. And not just that day. He hated the entire week. He sauntered up the stairs that led to his bedroom, and immediately stripped off his suit jacket, tie, and shoes as he headed straight for the bathroom to take a cool bath. However, the more droplets of water washed down his skin as he leaned against the tiled wall while letting the steam envelop him, the more his anger shimmered within him for reasons he had no idea. Still not feeling better, after he stepped out with a white towel around his waist, he oiled his body and changed into his gym clothes, ready to go and exercise in the gym room. ‘Hailey. Play some music,’ Ivan commanded, an

Skylar stood in front of the office of the doctor who was in charge of her mother, as she drew in a short breath, her heart pounding with worry and exhaustion. She hesitated briefly before knocking on the door, trying to steady her racing thoughts which speculated she would hear another disappointing news yet again. “Come in, please,” the doctor’s voice called out from behind the door, and she pushed it open to find Dr. Derin, whose demeanor seemed calm while awaiting her.“Hi, doctor,” Skylar tried to improve her mood, as she moved closer to the doctor's table. “Ms. Bailey,” Dr. Derin acknowledged her presence, “You may take your seat,” she gestured for her to sit down as she instantly brought out the medical charts of her mother to inform her of the progress regarding her health. “How is she, Doctor?” Skylar asked, her voice barely above a whisper.An insignificant sigh escaped the doctor as she leaned forward and adjusted her glasses, “Your mother is stable for now, Ms. Bailey,

Ivan sat at his study desk in his expansive, opulent room, being busy with some company work since it was the weekend. The room was so silent that one could hear a pin drop, the only subdued noise in the background was the sound of the ruffling file papers he reviewed through. All day, since he woke up and had berry and ricotta pancakes for breakfast, he had been working instead of his initial plan to go and see the ongoing volleyball tournament that was going on in HAVAN sports center. He just felt languid towards everything. Though he had been trying to keep up with working into the late hours of the night as planned, he couldn't continue anymore when he had been too weighed down by the weariness in his heart and just went to bed early. However, he was unable to sleep. He tossed endlessly with sleep, offering him no respite, as his thoughts meandered endlessly, unable to find a clear path amidst the mental fatigue that had gripped him. Arising from his bed with a hollowness

The vibrancy and vitality at the bar where Skylar sat was evident, with the club pulsing with the bass of the music which seemed to resonate in her ears, making her quite awkward in a place like that. It had been ages since she last set foot in a place like this, and the only thing she could do was allow her eyes to meander around, and observe everything that seemed to be going on around her. She had forgotten what it felt like to be surrounded by so many people, with each one lost in their world of fun and excitement.She was wearing a backless loop dress which was snatched by the waist by more straps, and a matching heel Amelia made her buy months ago, even if she ended up ditching the event that were both supposed to wear it to. It was the only dress she had that was eligible for that kind of setting, and Kali had complimented that it was fire. However, she was more interested in watching Kali, who moved effortlessly behind the counter, pouring drinks with practiced ease and exch

Amelia was fuming so much as she pushed through the door of the bathroom in the restaurant she was in, her heels clacked sharply against the polished floor as she stormed her way back to the table where Carlos was waiting, while sipping his drink with a relaxed demeanor. As she reached the table, she pulled out her chair with a sharp tug and sank on the chair so heavily, her breath coming in short, furious bursts which made him look up, surprised by her quick return, and the obvious rage scribbled on her face. “What is wrong?” his questioning eyes searched hers, “Were you not talking with Skylar a minute ago?” “You won't believe this! She is out at a club right now with a new friend she just met. I cannot believe her!” Amelia was so pissed as she struggled to contain her anger by chugging down the contents of her cocktail glass. Carlos raised an eyebrow, trying to process the reason for the sudden outburst with what she had said, and was still unable to comprehend, “Is that a pro

Skylar didn't even need to think twice as she returned to the club and whispered into Kali’s ears that she had to leave urgently. She barely had enough time to call a cab and just flagged another she saw, and told the person to go straight to the address in his neighborhood. After she confirmed her identity at the security post of the place, she dropped off in front of his house, and was allowed into his house without any hesitation the moment her biometrics was scanned.Her heels echoed through the empty corridors of his mansion, her pulse racing as she made her way to his room all while racing to the top. She had barely had time to change after her night out, still dressed in a sleek, club dress that clung to her curves. Her hair, which was still styled in loose waves, framed her face, and the makeup Kali applied for her, even if she didn't wear makeup, was impeccable, with smoky eyes and a bold red lip that completed her look.As she reached his door, she took a deep breath, and

Skylar sat at the edge of her bed, her hands clutched to the hem of the satin gown she was wearing, her heart, sick with anxiety and worry about what had happened in Ivan's house hours ago. The way he had grabbed her and kissed her was unexpected, and she got lost in it, forgetting that it was a line they were never meant to cross. Mortification overwhelmed Skylar the more she remembered how she moaned the moment their hot tongues entangled, and when he bit her lips, teasingly and tauntingly. It was so addictive that she didn't realize that she was far lost in what she was doing, until Ivan slowly broke from it, her lips carefully letting go of his lower lips that she had grasped between hers. She was thoroughly mortified. It was at that moment that it felt like the high ceiling would fall upon them because of the pressure that had settled in, that she stood up from his lap instantly without taking a further glance at his face. “Mr. Hamilton. It is late, and I must get going now
