His Sworn Enemy; His Deepest Desire /Aya Starr

WilliamPreparation was good most times, but amongst them, it was the most important thing I needed.I sucked in a breath, composing myself before knocking and opening the door to my father's study. The reaction I got always as expected Most if not all my family members were here, and all eyes were on me but not in a good way. Some of them huffed, eyeing me derogatorily.I paid no mind to it, ignoring it. I had more than enough time to prepare for this and get used to it. It wasn't new, especially now. It was expected of them.It had been that way ever since I returned. After over a decade of perpetual self imposed exile in the family, I had returned and I wasn't going back.The thought of the cause of that exile made me cringe, way more than any of their nasty stares would. It was so damn embarrassing to think about, even now.Pushing away the shame I felt from my thoughts I took my place at the seat, right beside my father’s.He was a great man and far stricter than anyone else.

WilliamTristan Richmond.I couldn't remember the last time I saw him but the memories if him were still clear as day.He was Caleb's older brother, and my sworn freaking enemy.Back in college when my relationship with Caleb was still new and fresh, I met him for the holidays the first time i stayed over. As Caleb's older brother I hoped he would give approval for our relationship.

He dismissed my attempts at friendship harshly and ig ores me otherwise, never failing to remind me of how much he disapproved of our relationship.At first I was confused constantly wondering what I had to do right but It was the intense stares he would give whenever he saw us together that tipped me off.Of course. It was clear what he thought of people like me and relationships like ours.So I gave up and things fell into place. Without any more pretenses our enmity fe

I slipped into the chair beside him, not bothering to Order.“You and Yarrus Corps aren't going to win. I'll make sure of it.” I spat out,He raised his eyebrow at me, “Are you talking to me?”“Are you celebrating early?” I jabbed, making him huff.“Well excuse me for having a drink.” he said, rolling his eyes. I clenched my jaw.“It's good that you're here though. Maybe you can call up a few women here to get drunk with you. Who knows? If you're lucky they might actually sleep with you.” I nonchalantly stated,The moment he froze, I knew I caught him. Shrugging, I continued.“You definitely need the advice. After all, it'll take someone getting a few drinks in before they can consider sleeping with you.”Tristan's face screwed up in an unpleasant expression and satisfaction filled me.“Say that again.” he demanded, his voice deeper and darker. I smiled to myself, ignoring him.“I freaking dare you to say that again.”Right before I was about to call the bartender, I suddenly felt a h

WilliamDays passed and I was feeling good about myself.Over the next week, I had spent nearly all of my money ,in dedication to sealing the deal.Every day I did something to try to impress the executives at Terra Corporation, making friends with all of the company staff and giving them gifts. I knew that my good work was surely going to reach the CEO and I would appeal as the better partner. For that, all the expenses were worth it.This was the most expensive thing I'd done however, spending the last of my savings on a Cruise party.I stepped into the ship, greeting the people around me entertained in my absence. I'd invited all the Terra Executives to a cruise party to relax and unwind to get in their favor. My work over the week hadn't gone to waste and the entire place was full.Happiness swelled in me as I greeted them, laughing at their jokes.“This party is amazing, Mr Bracknell. Bracknell Inc. is very fortunate to have you and I'm sure Terra would be pleased to have someone

WilliamDays later, the verdict was up and all I could feel was empty.I was sitting at my bedroom desk, the night’s darkness filtering in as I stared hollowly at the message in my laptop.‘Good day Mr Bracknell,Unfortunately, the board has ultimately decided to hand over the Partnership agreement to Yarrus Cooperation. We sincerely appreciate…’I couldn't read the rest of the email, constantly rereading that part over and over again.It was over. I'd lost.Tears bit against my eyes. I felt like crying but I slammed my hand against the desk in anger and frustration.How could this be? I had done so much, spent so much of my money to appeal to them and the CEO. I'd worked so damn hard to relate with all of them and this was what I got.‘No. It isn't over.’ I thought furiously, standing up.I quickly got dressed and drove to the Terra Corporations building, stepping out with anger and determination. If I was rejected, I was going to know why.I didn't smile as I reached the secretary.
