KEIAI was already feeling so bad before I went into work because the day had started out terribly and I was not in the mood for anybody's nonsense at all because of what had happened the night before. Even till morning, I will still unable to snap out of the anger that had taken hold of me because of the things he had done. I was so angry about his childish behavior and the fact that I did not get enough sleep was not even helping matters at all. The moment I stepped my feet into the company building, I could already feel the tension bubbling under the surface and I hoped there was nobody who was going to make it worse for me, somebody who was going to make the tension that I was trying to hold in to explode. I just hoped that was going to be the case because I would not hold back if anything like that happened. I was tired of not telling people to go to hell with their taunts and not putting them in their place. I was making my way to my desk when one of my colleagues decided that

KEIAI did not need a seer to tell me that I had annoyed her when I finished work that evening. I had gone to her office in the afternoon so we could get lunch but she was fast asleep and I did not want to make her anger any worse. And when I finished work late that evening, I expected to go back home with her but she was already out of her office and nowhere around when I got down. I knew what was going on and it was all my fault. I had been too hard on her late today and if anything, I had to apologize. That was because she did not deserve the way I had acted, not one one it. She was doing all she could to avoid me and as much as I hated it, I knew I deserved it. Before heading home, I stopped by a gift store but as soon as I got out of the car, I was confused because I did not know what she liked so I bought a little bit of everything. I got a bouquet of fresh Roses, a box of her favorite chocolate and even a small plush Teddy that seemed childish for sure but then I thought she m

KEIAFor some reason, the day at work felt like a decade. As soon as it was time, I was more than ready to leave the office and get home. Grabbing my bag, I made my way out of the door without caring if Sawyer had left or not. I was at least happy that I had been able to preserve myself from getting into any sort of argument with him or anybody else. The way I had behaved today in the office was not something I was angry about because at least I had been able to push everyone from doing anything that would make me angry. As I made my way down the staircase, I kept my head down even as I passed by some of my colleagues who were talking to themselves around the entrance. I avoided eye contact because I did not want to get caught up in their small talk or give him any reason to start asking those annoying questions later. At the moment, something inside me did not want to make him angry anymore even though I detested how much he affected my decisions. The past few days had been nothin

KEIAThe first thing that caught my attention the moment we walked into the mesmerizing Grand Hall was the warm glow of chandeliers shining down upon us like the night sky. The space below was filled with conversations as people conversed while carrying glasses of champagne on their fingertips. I stayed close to him so I would not get lost because of how vast and crowded the place was, brushing my hand lightly against his arm for a moment but I just allowed myself to enjoy the feeling of safety that his presence gave me. That was the moment the one thing that I had been dreading happened. The moment was shattered when I glanced back to see Artemis approaching us. For some reason, it seemed as if he was trying to catch up because he was moving swiftly and I clearly made out how his jaw was set and his eyes blazed with anger. I could only come to the conclusion that this night might not end well. I turned around and we continued to make our way towards the other guests with Sawyer obli

KEIAIn a trice, he was already standing beside me and without another word, he grabbed my arm gently albeit firmly before he pulled me away from the scene. I was so angry that if he had not restrained me, I would have dealt with her again. She could be disrespectful to anybody she wanted but saying those kinds of words to me to demean my worth was not something I was going to accept no matter what the consequences would be. I gave her a very hot glare as the guards quickly approached and surrounded her before walking her out of the room. We were already surrounded by people but the crowd did not stand out to me as we both hurried out of the hall. The only thing that kept ringing in my mind was how she had insulted me and how I would have done more if Sawyer did not grab me. I was glad also that I had shown Artemis that I was not the person I used to be when I was with him. Even with him walking seriously beside me, I could feel his anger as we escaped from the chaos that had alread

KEIAStanding there in front of him, I did not know what to say at first even though I knew and felt I needed to say something. The words wouldn’t just come out and I did not want to force it because you would not take long before things got awkward. But I finally broke the silence when I came up with something. "Thank you. For being there. For everything." He looked up at me and his eyes softened and for a moment, the harsh person that he had always been to me disappeared and the man I had Always Known before I returned from prison resurfaced. In that moment, that was all I needed, some sort of reassurance that everything was going to be okay. The look on his face alone was enough to give that promise. "You don't need to thank me. I also have to thank you for what you did back there. All right now we must make sure that we are doing okay." I gave him a nod and swallowed before walking over to sit beside him on the couch. I was already feeling better. Not long after, my phone start

KEIAHe let out a sigh before setting his phone down on the table in front of him. "Keia, you should understand that last night-" I raised a finger to interrupt and thankfully he took notice and stopped. "Don't, please don't don't it like it was nothing. Because it was something and no matter how hard you're trying to look, I know it meant something to you as well." When I was done talking, he hesitated for a moment and I saw something flicker in his eyes. I couldn't tell if it was regret, or something else maybe. However, it vanished before I was able to piece together what I'd seen and what it meant. Then he spoke. "What do you want from me, Keia." He asked. I made my way beside him and sat close. "I should be the one asking you that, Sawyer. Can you for a moment just let me know what you want." He shook his head subtly but I was able to see through the whole thing he was doing. "Nothing. I want nothing." He replied. I felt a pang of disappointment rip through me when he said

KEIA My phone buzzed with a message later that day and I opened it to see a message from Sawyer. There was really no message but a link to some kind of website. I clicked the link and waited nervously as it redirected me to a website. When the video and headline came into view, I froze. Artemis was sitting in a plush chair, and he looked so calm but the words he said were anything but calm. "I'll tell everyone the same thing. I don't care how she looks. Keia is not who she seems to be. She is very manipulative, vindictive and is a snake in the grass. I wouldn't trust her with anything. Why do you think she's she's ex-convict?" My heart jumped when he said that, calling me an ex-convict. The interviewer seemed thrown off when he said that. She leaned forward with her eyes wide. "Are you saying that she's dangerous?" Artemis gave her a nod that was both slow and deliberate. "Absolutely. We are going to see what's going to happen soon. A year, six months maybe but I promise you Saw

SAWYERThe moment we pulled up to the mansion, the sight of the report swarming the gates made me groan inwardly. That was one thing about these people. They were always breathing down your neck, trying to get the next information that would shatter the world, and in our case I didn't expect it to get this big. But considering that Artemis had gone online to call Keia names, it was like pouring fuel on fire. The cameras kept flashing like fireflies on steroids and from the car I could hear the muffled shouts of questions. "Are you kidding me?" I couldn't keep the words inside anymore as I gripped the steering wheel harder. I looked over to see a nervous-looking Keia. "I am sorry, I didn't think they would follow us all the way from the restaurant." "It's not your fault. And it's your first time. These people will do anything to get just a word from you." I replied sharply, even though my tone went soft the moment I saw the guilt in her eyes. "They are vultures, that's what they do

KEIA"Oh, God." I said before setting my phone down on the bed, letting out a sharp exhale. I tend to see Keia who was already wide awake. I guessed she had heard the shout. "Was that your mom?" She asked, sounding hesitant but I didn't mind. I just didn't like the way things had turned out between us this morning. Maybe if she had been a bit respectful, none of this would have happened. I understood that the paparazzi did a very good job at making sure we were restless but blaming it on her and calling her names was the last thing I was going to accept. I wasn't going to let her disrespect Keia like that and get away with it. She deserved to be spoken to the way I did, so I did not have any atom of regret in what I did. She could be angry all she wanted but I knew we were surely going to talk it out when we met. So it wasn't a big problem anyways. I turned towards her and nodded subtly. "Yep." I said before leaning back against the headboard. She sat there for a moment seemingly t
