RHYSARIOEryn Valek Storm. Interesting name for an interesting woman. My hands flew over the touch pad of my laptop while I let out a huge sigh.What am I doing?I should be reading files, checking in on patients but here I am, doing nothing but stalking a woman I just met.All for what?She slapped the Alpha, she had guts. The kind you don't find so easily in others.“Trouble in paradise?” Dr Brown questioned, setting a cup of coffee on my table and I quickly pressed the off button.So he doesn't see me stalking their ex Luna's page and thinks I'm a creep.“Not really. Pulled an all nighter for the last 2 days, it feels like my brain is about to split in half. Thanks for the coffee.” I chugged it down immediately in one go and Dr Brown just stared at me blankly.“What? I really needed that caffeine shot.” I protested, ruffling my hair.Eryn Echoes.How did she not know yet? Or was she faking not to know? That I was—“Dr Vale, you're reading the file upside down.” Dr Brown's called ou
ERYNWho knew saving the world would come with the added bonus of messing with Torren's head?After returning Dr Vale's file back to him, I decided to make my first move.I accepted the government's offer concerning my N.G.OIf they were already gunning for the shares, then I had to act fast.A new mail was sent to me scheduling a meeting with the board for 10:30am and one thing I knew, Torren was going to be there.I smiled to myself, adjusting my silk top as I glanced at my watch briefly. 10:15am.I was currently standing just outside Torren's office as I watched him alight his vehicle with Kael training him behind.“Eryn. I didn't know I'd see you here especially after the humiliation yesterday.” I bit my tongue, concealing the smile that was about to spread on my face.“Torren, i—” He cut me off abruptly.“I'm busy. You and I can discuss once I'm done with my meeting and have time for you.” He brushed me off and walked in.He certainly heard me yesterday and ignored me. Oh, you w
ERYNI knew betrayal had a price, just didn’t think I’d be paying it with duct tape around my wrists.I was just about to leave the hospital with mom and dad when I got a text from an unknown number that Torren needed to see me.At first, I had doubts. If Torren wanted to talk, he could easily text from his number but then, I blocked him.Surely he might have just used another number.I excused myself from the doctor's office and went out to see Torren, his pride probably hurt seeing the way Dr Rhysario addressed him earlier.“Miss Eryn?” Someone called from behind me.I turned to the direction of the voice and— there's no one there.I raised a brow.“Who's there?” All the wards door were closed in the area, only one was open and—Strong arms immediately came over my mouth, dragging me through the open door.“Who are you?” I muffled, biting, struggling and kicking my feet. He tossed me into a seat and before I could even process, heavy duct tapes bounded my hands to the seat.“Miss Er
SAELAI slammed my hands onto the table once again, gritting my teeth.Torren had met up with his ex wife, Eryn. Again. For the third time this week.With every time she showed up, my heart did a little thump, a constant reminder that she wasn't fully divorced with him yet and might come to drag down everything I worked for.How could I possibly let that happen?“Can we meet up at a discreet location I text to you?” I said as the call I had dialed went through and the person on the other end answered in the affirmative.“Don't be late.” I said and hung up as I went over to my mirror and smoothened out my makeup.Packed my hair in a high ponytail and reapplied my gloss. You know what? I think I'm in the mood for a new bag.I ran fingers through the rack and picked up a pink designer bag.Perfect.Time to put an end to this.My hands flew over my screen as I texted the location to him and deleted it from my end.I might have to flash my phone once everything was confirmed, these kind o
ERYN “That's it? That's the doctor that's supposed to test my dad?” I asked in awe. Dr Brown nodded firmly and I chuckled dryly. “Wow. That's shocking. He doesn't even look like he wants to be here.” I commented, watching his retreating figure. “He's like that to everyone, Miss Eryn. Just wait a little longer and he'll attend to you.” I nodded as I finally calmed myself to go sit with my parents in the waiting room. I didn't even know how long I had sat there, aimlessly scrolling through my phone when I suddenly felt like raising my head. Torren was walking in alongside Saela and Asher. Just perfect, now I get to see them. He actually waved. I wasn't sure how to react and didn't realize I was squeezing my hands really tightly until I felt mum's hands on top of it and I calmed down. “Relax.” I was getting flashes of loosing Niko and it was really nostalgic in a bad way. He was coming over. Why? Just why? “Eryn? Fancy seeing you here.” He commented, locking eyes with my parent
ERYN “You're sure this is going to yield a good result, right? Else it'd be rather nice that I'm folded up in bed all cozy, when I finally die.” My dad teased and I turned to glare at him when he broke out in a laugh. “Just joking, Ryn. You look way scary these days.” He muttered and a small smile spread across my face. I swerved right, going past an incoming vehicle that would have slammed into me and let out a deep sigh. Today? I was taking my parents to the hospital for a full medical check up, my mum included. She wasn't diagnosed ill but I wasn't going to take any chances. After all, a woman her age drowning in sorrow of seeing her husband wither away and then depression? I hope it didn't stir up any bad health issues for her. There was no harm in checking anyways. I sighed as I pulled into the hospital's driveway and helped them out of the car, directly leading them into the hospital. “I see what you're saying, Amor. They sure are advanced in technology.” Mum commented as
