Theodore:The cold evening breeze kissed my skin and I gently inhaled. It had been so fucking long since I had experienced this.The evening view was magnificent. The darkened sky and the twinkling stars, the cool breeze and the sight of the amber lights of the street lamps.Five years felt like forever and I felt tears pricking my eyes at the sight and feeling of freedom. I made a mental note to thank Pedro, the lawyer that had handled my case, for being able to negotiate my sentence and gain me my freedom.I had expected to see my husband's car and when I didn't see his familiar red Porsche, the pang of disappointment that weighed on my heart had my hands quivering but it didn't quell the happiness inside me. Perhaps Fred had gotten so busy that he had forgotten to pick me up. After all, it was his lawyer that had gotten me free from the shackles of hell.I dug into my purse and fished out my phone, groaning in frustration because my phone was dead. Sighing, I took off the stilettos

A week since I started my job hunt and seven companies down, all I had to show for it were rejection emails and a stack of coffee cups. It was beginning to become frustrating because their reason for not accepting me was the fact that I have been to prison.“Urgh!” I banged my head on the table as I just finished reading yet another rejection email and it said basically the same thing as the others but in different words.Life had been rather difficult for me since I had moved out of Fred's place on a whim and dropped an impromptu arrival at my beloved best-friend's place. Serena had been rather welcoming despite the surprise etched on her face, I figured the broken look on my face had told her everything without me having to speak.Serena has been by my side, encouraging me to keep pushing and I did. I was grateful to her because she has been nothing but my support since my messy divorce with Fred. She had connected me with a lawyer who was willing to prepare the divorce papers and p

I woke up to a terrible headache that threatened to blow my brain off. My hands flew to my head, afraid that it might fall off if I moved too much. I hissed at the aches that attacked my body as I tried to move, freezing at the spot at the restriction around my waist.I gulped with a racing heart and looked down. My heart lept out of my chest the moment I was met with the sight of a man with his arm around my waist. He had long curly black hair that was sitting in wild messy waves and long lashes that framed his lids. My breaths were knocked out of my chest when I leaned closer to get a better view of his face.He had high cheekbones and a pointed nose that led to slightly thick pale red lips. His thick brows held a natural arch. I could only stare in awe and surprise. How could such a handsome creature exist? He looked adorable as he slept, with his hair grazing his cheeks. I was tempted to reach down and tuck away the invasive strands but withheld myself. Something about him struck

KEIAI was a throbbing mess of excitement and nerves when I walked through the glass office doors. I'd landed the job even though a lot of people still asked why. From the foregoing, almost everyone had a relative and friend they wanted in this position. That was why they kept whispering and glancing at me when I was walking through the hallways. I had no idea what they were saying, but I knew for a fact that rumours were already going about. Letting out a heavy sigh, I gently closed the door behind me, murmuring under my breath while clutching the bag tightly. "Here goes nothing."I headed to my desk, and began to vet everything in order so I could start work. It all felt strange, sitting in a new environment and trying to settle in. I was prepared to take on it while hoping that this Job was going to help bring me some stability, and the revenge on Artemis after everything he had done to me. My heart twisted with a pang of hatred each time the thoughts sauntered back into my head. I

KEIAThe urge to say no to him was almost overpowering, but then I was struck by the thought. I remembered instantly why I was here, why I was doing this job. If this was going to work out, I needed him. Getting close to Sawyer was not just a job perk but it was also a vital part of my plan to make sure I got back to Artemis so I could show him that I wasn't the kind of person he could just use and throw away.He was going to learn this the hard way, and I would be there to look him in the face once everything began planting out for me. Taking a deep breath, I forced out a smile and nodded."Alright. Thank you so much. I'll take the ride." I climbed into the car before settling in the posh seat. He stayed silent, and kept staring ahead at the road. He didn't talk to me, unless. He was quiet most of the time, and that had me wondering why he had offered me the ride in the first place.I realised another problem as the drive went on. If we both stayed quiet this way, then there was no w

KEIAI did not stop watching his car until it finally disappeared around the corner. I was very confused about what he had just told me and no matter how much I tried to push the word out of my mind, it only kept coming back. It was impossible. "Welcome back." Why did you tell me that? What do you mean? Was it just a polite gesture or was he just for the years that I had lost? I thought about talking to him about it tomorrow when I would go to work but he really spoke to me so I knew he wouldn't even say a single word in a response.Thinking about it made me so angry for a moment but I finally forced myself to calm down because you're could be many explanations. There was a possibility it did not mean anything and even if it meant something, I was not going to let his words get to me in any way because right now, I had bigger things to worry about and not two words that probably meant nothing.After all, the reason I was here was not to win him over but to get back at his step brother

KEIAWhen the door opened and she walked in, I was completely caught off guard. I'd been expecting a potential secretary, someone who could fill in the spot without much trouble. But seeing her was the last thing I expected. Shocked was too weak a word to describe how I felt in that moment but I pushed the feeling down.All I noticed was her figure. It was confident and she had this kind of strength that immediately appealed to me, as if she hadn't hadn't come from a place like a prison. Her clothes were quite professional, but they did almost nothing to hide her curves. But that wasn't just it. Her gaze... the way she held her head high, was just so strange. She looked lower, maybe even more than she had years ago. However, when she got closer, the chill coursed down my spine. Her face. Her eyes. Keia. I'd recognized her instantly but there were a lot of questions I had.She used to be my brother's wife and back then, I'd watched her from a distance. I had a crush on her back when I

KEIAThe alarm buzzed right at six and this time, I didn't hit snooze. Thankfully, I'd gone to bed early, so I was sharp and ready to tackle the day. I quickly sat up but carefully also, not to disturb Liana who was still curled up beside me, fast asleep. She had been generous enough to let me stay with her while I got back on my feet and waking her this early was the last thing I wanted.I knew she she had stayed up late, thinning about ehat had happened last night with the landlord. It was stressful, I knew, but it wouldn't be long before she'd get over it, I knew. She had a way of handling things, perhaps a gift. That was why I didn't argue with her when she told me she would take care of the landlord. I just hoped things would happen like she had said and nothing would go wrong. We could only hope.Getting out of bed, I grabbed my clothes and walked ro the bathroon. Looking at myself in the mirror, I was quickly reminded that I was a sidereal person now- not the s

KEIAGetting bafk to my office and desk, I tried focusing on the work he had given me but my mind was not at rest at all. That was because I kept thinking. Was he angry at me because I was late, or was he disappointed?There had been no signs of frustration, but that only made things a lot harder. Considering how silent he was, reading his mind would be extremely difficult, almost impossible. Shaking my head in an attempt to smap myself out of the chaos my mind had gotten into, I better myself."Focus, Keia," I whispered to myself but the more I tried to concentrate, the more I kept thinking about Sawyer. The way he looked so calm, and composed, indifferent. I got to work immediately and began typing up the reports.When I was dome, I quickly checked for errors. But yet again, the words all seemed blurry and my fingers moved like they had something else that wasn't me controlling them, almost as if they had a mind of their own. I double-checked the figures but most times I got lost. My

Sawyer

v SAWYERStaring at the minute hand of the clock, it seemed as if each tick marked every second that she was late. I kept checking the wall of the clock, then my watch as though either of them would tell a different time from the other. But it was altering right in my face, she was late. Where the hell was she then? I wondered. I was worried, not angry. My mind wouldn't stop going over all sorts of reasons why this was happening. Did she quit the job or did this have to do with the morning traffic. Or maybe... the thought sent a chill running through me. Maybe Artemis got her. The thought of my brother interfering made my stomach roll. Artemis wasn't the type of person who left things alone, especially if he thought they gave him control. But I told myself that considering what she had gone through, she wasn't going back to him any time soon. I didn't think there had been any sort of communication or connection between the both of them lately. Even as I thought abou
