Chapter 101

KennaI stare at Isaac as if he has two heads, he may as well have. Is he out of his damn mind? Get back with Xander? What has possessed him? What was a perfectly wonderful morning is turning out to be the worst morning since I can remember.I can’t even respond but I do remind myself to pick my jaw up off the ground. His eyes are still boring into mine, his expression poker faced yet his arms have a glint of something in them. What? I can’t exactly say. “I don’t understand,” my try at being diplomatic and not saying what is actually on my mind. Like, what the fuck are you talking about? You know how much of a shit show my marriage was. There is more that I could say but none of it will put me in good stead and I do know Isaac. He is stubborn, authoritative and way too used to getting his own way. In some respects he and Xander are exactly the same. Driven and focused on their empires. “Don’t play dumb, Kenna. You are smarter than that. You heard exactly what I said. I need you to b

Chapter 102

KennaI am still wound up like a tight coil by the time I go to meet Elsie at Caprice’s Italian coffee shop in central Manhattan. My driver negotiated the busy traffic with ease whilst I caught up with emails and messages. My mother and I still plan to go shopping later this afternoon, when we will talk more about my situation. The driver pulls up parallel to the sidewalk and comes round to assist me in getting out. He gives me his hand which I gratefully take and step out into the fresh air. The sky is that wonderful bright blue with no clouds in sight. It's a crisp morning and I am glad that I put on my cream pea coat and changed into a cashmere sweater underneath, teaming it with some wide-legged Chanel trousers and my pumps. Inside the cafe there are already a few people sitting around in groups, there are students, older aged people, a few teenagers and plenty of moms with their children on their laps or in their buggies. It smells of freshly ground coffee and hits my nostrils

Chapter 103

KennaIt was a huge fun morning catching up with Elsie and having coffee. She told me all about her dates that she had been on recently. And boy has that girl been having some fun. Not that I want to be in the dating pool, and besides it is not something I have time for. Isaac and his bombshell has still left me reeling. My phone vibrates in my coat pocket. I pull it out and check it. Xander. Again. Honestly, the man is insistent I will give him that much. But right now I am mad as hell for him merely existing and all because of Isaac.I am looking forward to seeing you this evening, Bella. I have made a dinner reservation at Diamonds exclusive VIP club. For eight p.m. I sigh, since I don't want to have dinner with him. Yet, I still have Isaac’s words in my ears burning my ear drums. There is no way I can make a relationship with Xander, not when my heart wants to be with Dante. My mother is coming towards me as I agreed that after my coffee date with Elsi, I would meet her at Trump

Chapter 104

DanteI can still feel Kenna’s lips on mine, my lower region starts to swell just thinking of our evening together. I want to message her and tell her how much I miss her already and she hasn’t even left New York for Dallas yet. Crazy, right? I know she is busy with her best friend and her mother today. Then she has to meet up with Xander. I want to get on the jet and punch him in the face, I know what he is up to. Schmoozing with her. Listen, I am no man’s fool. The mere fact that Xander specifically asked for Kenna to be the one handling his account, is only to get close to her again.What kind of man ignores his wife for three years and then decides he wants to fight to get her back? Well now he has to go through me. I know Kenna has feelings for me, our connection is strong, the electricity that passes through us is not like anything else I have ever experienced.My phone rings, dashing to it on the kitchen Island I grab it and see it is from my father. “Good morning, Father. Eve

Chapter 105

KennaThe restaurant is filling up, I spot many people that are celebrities and of course the tourists. New York is full of them and I can see why. Although, I personally would prefer to have a bolt hold property somewhere like New England. Maybe I can wrangle it and buy somewhere. I will ask Dante to help me. Mother is making small talk. Really I just want her to get to the point where she tells me what she has on Isaac. But, like I said before, there is no rushing my mother. “Have you found a young suitor yet, Kenna?” She says between forkfuls of her green salad with no dressing. I knew this would be coming. Ever since I have been divorced from Xander she has asked the question several times. My mother is keen to have grandchildren. And since I am her only child it rests on my shoulders. I am guessing that she knows Dante isn’t going to produce any for a while. He is building his own empire and also he is a confirmed bachelor. Although, things may change between us when we can fina

Chapter 106

KennaI watch as my mother wipes her mouth with the napkin and places it down. The waiter comes over and removes our plates. We thank him and order two coffees. “I found some papers,” she begins. My interest is piqued. “I didn’t get a chance to read them fully, however, one was the will from his deceased sister.”I nod. “Okay, and what else? That isn’t exactly enough to have anything on Isaac.”“I wish we didn’t have to have anything on him actually, Kenna. I don’t want to force you to marry or go back into a relationship with Xander but it would be the easiest thing. Can’t you see, if you don’t, Isaac will divorce me and disown you. You need to remember, Kenna, he put us where we are.”Exasperated, I let out a deep breath. I fold my arms in front of my chest. The coffees arrive with some cream on top and chocolates on the side of the saucers. I thank the waiter who gives me a gracious smile. “Just tell me already, God, Mom you are being so frustrating right now. I will not remarry

Chapter 107

KennaI land in Dallas at seven in the evening. My eyes feel like someone has thrown grit in them. Lack of sleep is making my head woozy and the words of Isaac and my mother won’t leave me alone. Anxiety floods my body, it is all consuming. How can they possibly consider me going back with Xander? I need to call Dante, it’s been such a runaway day that I haven’t even had a proper chance to catch up with him.The driver awaits me at the bottom of the steps of the jet and takes my luggage that the attendant has already brought down.“Good evening Miss Bodega, welcome to Dallas.” A different driver, a different city. I am already fed up with this tour. I guess if it were with anyone else then maybe I’d not have such feelings. I would be excited to have this massive opportunity to shine and show Isaac how impressive I can be. “Thank you, straight to the hotel.”He nods and opens the door for me before placing all my luggage in the trunk of the black Mercedes. I rest my head on the headre

Chapter 108

XanderI am waiting at the entrance to my hotel, it is plush and luxurious like all the hotels I own. Money is no object to me and it is the experience I aim to give to my guests. A bell boy stands to the side with his trolley at the ready. I have instructed him already to be waiting for Kenna’s car to arrive. A woman stands behind me with a bouquet of plush, red roses to hand to Kenna upon arrival. We have decorated the hotel with more flowers than usual, I want it to be like a paradise for when she arrives. My heart is picking up pace knowing that her eta is in around five minutes. I check quickly behind me to ensure we are ready for her. Kenna is like royalty to me now and I am pulling out all the stops for her. “Miss Bodega will not need to check in, she will go straight to the elevator to her penthouse suite.” I tell the woman behind me. She nods.“We have everything under control, Mr Staniopolis. Your electronic signature against her suite is already on record.” “Good, thank

Chapter 109

Kenna“Xander, I am warning you, do not touch me. We cannot be anything to you. Do you get that? I have someone else in my life now.” He raises his eyebrows, something he does on a regular basis. Why does he look so surprised? What, like can’t I get anyone else after he mentally ruined me?“Who?”“It is none of your business, Xander.”“It is all of my business. Isaac and I have a deal, Kenna and that involves you.”I move away from him and take a seat on the turquoise sofa that has white fluffy cushions strategically placed. I have to admit, the suite is perfect. There is a low level oak, square coffee table that sits between the sofa I am on, and two easy chairs opposite.Xander remains standing with his hands in his pockets. He looks like a mafia man with his hand tattoos and the scowl on his face.“Who? Your stepbrother? You know that is wrong don’t you Kenna? And what would Isaac think if he found out?”“Tsk, like I care anymore. And exactly what new arrangement do you have with

Chapter 110

KennaI am horrified with his tone as I watch his back exiting the suite doors. My heart is racing and alarm fills me. What if he is being serious? I have to think of all my options here. Because this doesn’t just impact me anymore. It will impact Dante if we try to make a go of it. Isaac could disown both of us and whereas I know Dante is making a good deal out of his own business, it is nothing like the billions that he stands to inherit from Isaac. God this is cluster fucking mess, one I wish I wasn’t caught up in.Not only that, Isaac and Dante are pretty close as father and son. It could destroy their relations, and that would be so hard to deal with. Dante looks up to his father, he respects him. Although him knowing about the whole Xander thing, may just have changed that. And why does Xander want to have me back again? I just can’t figure it out. It’s almost like he wants something he can’t have. Let’s face it, he surely can't love. I mean why would he threaten me if he sincer
