Study You

“You don’t know why I quit in the first place,” I snapped. “It’s more personal than you think.”“Doesn’t matter. If you walk away now, you’re still a quitter. And I’m not going to let you.”I raised an eyebrow. “You’re not going to let me?”“That’s right.” His tone hardened. “You're useful right now. My second demand is simple: you’re not quitting Black Wind. You’re staying until our project is finished. Until you’ve completed the deal with Flagler Corporation, you’re not walking away.”I clenched my fists, my nails digging into my palms,“And when this project is over?”“Then you can quit all you like. But until then? You’re staying. So start thinking about work, Nina. You’re not done with me yet. You will be seeing a lot of me in the future.”“What is it with you?” I snapped, my eyes narrowing.Trey raised a brow, feigning innocence. “What do you mean?”“Does making me feel uncomfortable do something for your ego? Does it give you a high? Or what? Does it get you hard? Is that it?”

You'll Never Understand

"Why are you doing all of this? What is it that you want?" My voice was full of frustration. "Why don’t we just go to the heart of it so you can tell me what it is you want? I just want to give you whatever you want so you can leave me alone. Okay?"Trey's eyes didn’t waver. "I don’t think this is any way to talk to me.""You mean to talk to someone who’s blackmailing me? Someone who’s threatening me?""I wouldn’t put it that way.""Then what way would you put it?" My voice rose, "What way do you want me to put it? What was it that made you choose me? I wonder” I asked while thinking it through,“Was it because everyone at that table was a man and I was the only woman? Is that it? You couldn’t choose your mother—obviously. And you couldn’t choose Rita because she’s…what value does she even have to you? You don’t know anything about her. But me?" I leaned forward. "Me? You admitted yourself that you had been investigating me and that you were obsessed with me. But, You know about Emer

The List

We sat in heavy silence for a few minutes. Then Treyson broke it with a whisper."I’m sorry."I turned my head, giving him an unimpressed look before rolling my eyes. "Well, don’t get suddenly all soft on me," I snapped. "Blackmailers aren’t supposed to be soft, are they? You’re forgetting the role you’re supposed to play."A chuckle escaped him. "Then I guess I’m lucky I didn’t have a brother.""Well, I mean…" I paused, my voice softening. "I don’t know. Some people have sisters and brothers, and they’re actually happy to have a family, siblings. I just… I can’t believe I never saw it. I knew Rita was a little jealous of me growing up. I mean, I was jealous of her, too. I guess that’s normal with siblings, right? I was always envious of her bond with our mother, and she resented my relationship with our father. But still…" My chest tightened at the memories. "It was very painful. It still is. I don’t want to think about it."Treyson didn’t interrupt. He just watched me, letting me s

Besties

For reasons I did not understand, reasons I was not ready for, I was laughing with this person. He was the most maddening person in the world. And being in here, he has made me tell him how I was feeling, and laugh with him. Ridiculous!This must be the second time I was laughing with him. As I realized this, I looked at him again, and I thought, 'What’s up with this one? Is he a psychopath? Is he... Like, what is it about him that can be so maddening and makes you laugh at the same time? Is he a psychopath? A narcissist? A master manipulator?But also...I’m very confused.And as I thought this, I knew it. He was dangerous. He was trouble. He was not someone to be close to. He was someone I was supposed to keep a distance from and tell someone—anyone—about whatever it was that was going on here.So, out of nowhere, I just snapped."Is that going to be all? I don’t have to leave Blackwind? Okay, right, done. Can I leave now?"He looked at me, and there was this look.I caught him off

Not Serious

"Fine. What's the next one?" I decided to cut to the point."Well..." He drew out the word. "To be honest, I think I’m just gonna give you three.""Alright. Thank you, Your Majesty," I replied, sarcasm dripping from my voice. "What’s the last one?""I think I’m gonna keep this one to myself."I blinked. "What?"He smirked. "I feel like there’s a day when I’ll need to use this last card. So I’m gonna keep it. One day, when the need arises, I’ll cash it in.""What do you think this is, the Mafia?" I narrowed my eyes. "Are you like the mob, keeping favours or something?"He actually considered this for a moment, nodding as if he were seriously pondering his life choices. "You know, I could have been a good Mafia boss. I mean, I’m handsome after all. Strong. Charismatic.""One punch sent you to the hospital," I pointed out flatly.He winced, rubbing his jaw in mock pain. "Then I guess I just need to work harder."There was a pause."So... Rita’s gonna have a baby. And you’re gonna have

Apologize

Tina wasted no time rushing towards Treyson's side. Her hands went over him like a mother hen checking every feather. She touched his face, smoothed his hair, and examined his black eye with a gasp that could have won an award for most dramatic performance."Oh, my baby," she muttered, half-praying, half-cursing whoever had dared to harm her precious son.I watched the scene, feeling like a trespasser in some strange family drama."It's fine, Mom. It's okay. I'm fine. I promise I'm fine." Treyson placated his mother.Tina's face remained concerned, her eyes scanning him like she could somehow make his injuries disappear. "Are you sure, baby? Are you sure? Who did this?" Her gaze flicked over to me, and there was something about the way she looked at me—as if she was ready to attack at any moment.Trey sighed and laid back against his pillow, his voice soft."I hit my head pretty hard. I really don't know what happened. I went to the toilet, then I went outside the restaurant, the ba

Go Home

Tina shot me a sharp glare as she stared at me, and then she looked back at her son. Then with a calm, soft voice, she said, "Why don't you just look after your health? I just want you to get better. Let's get better so we can go home.""Go home?" Treyson asked as he looked at his mother. "What do you mean, go home? I thought you were leaving me here to head the project.""Yeah, well," she said as if she didn't want to have this conversation here or with me present, because she kind of gave me a look too. "We'll discuss that later.""No, there's no discussing that later. Tell me now or leave. What do you want to say that has to wait? If it's the injuries, it's just the eye, but I'm okay.""Your head is bandaged." Tina pointed out."I know, but the doctors told me it's not as bad as it looks. And as long as I rest, drink my water and look after myself, it will all be good in a couple of days. They are just concerned I might have a concussion, but I don't think I have it. So, what is r

Didn't Like It

I awkwardly stood up, brushing myself off and making sure I had everything with me with a quick glance around, Suddenly Trey's voice was heard commanding the room, and there was an edge and a threat in his voice as he said, “Mina, could you come over here for a second?”I looked at him, hesitant, knowing full well I was not going to follow whatever scheme he had in mind. But then, he pointed towards his mom with his eyes.He didn’t say another word, but he spoke to me through his eyes, and I understood what he was trying to communicate. I knew what he wanted.Reluctantly, I went closer to him.“closer,” he he said,I moved closer, hesitating but then, without warning, he grabbed my head, pulling me towards him.He whispered, “Do not tell anybody about our sacred agreement. One word out, and the offer is off the table.”“What are you two whispering to each other?” Tina said, her eyes narrowing as she first looked at me with an accusing glare, then shifted her attention to her son.Wi

The Need To Understand

Emmerson hesitated, his words faltering.“What?” I demanded. “What did you find, Emerson?”“I misspoke,” he said quickly, shaking his head. “I’m just tired.”“No,” I argued. “Finish what you were going to say. After you found him doing what?”He sighed deeply, running a hand through his hair. “After I found him kissing you.”“You mean when you found us kissing?” I gasped my voice filled with sarcasm.“I misspoke,” he said again, his words coming out in a rush. “I’m sorry. I’m just so damn tired, Mina. But after seeing you holding hands with him, you can’t fault me for wondering what’s going on.”I stared at him. The exhaustion on his face, the frustration in his voice—it all felt too much.“You don’t trust me,” I said quietly, more to myself than to him.“That’s not true,” Emerson said, his voice softening. “I trust you, Mina. But right now, I need to understand. I need to know what’s really happening here.”I didn't say anything. So, he continued."What's going on? Mina, talk to me.

Blame Me

I had to think quickly, "Because when I got there, the nurses told me that I couldn't leave him alone," I said, exhaling deeply. "He had a concussion. He's not supposed to fall asleep. So I was just there giving him company, and I must have lost track of time. And as you can see, I'm very tired, so I must have dozed off." "And holding hands?" Emerson shot back, "Okay, I cannot take responsibility for that," I replied, holding up my hands defensively. "I was not holding his hand. Maybe I fell asleep before him, and he took my hand, but I was in no way holding his hand. Okay, Emerson? I really need you to trust me right now." His expression softened slightly. "All right, Mina, I trust you. But still—what are you saying? You're saying that this is all over, and you’ve forgiven him? Is that what you're telling me?" I hesitated, knowing how this was going to sound. "I don’t know. But since we’re going to be working together, I don’t think it’s very good for us to have hatred towar
