Entangled Hearts: The Forbidden Bond
"Isla," he called, his voice brutally stern, "you know it was a terrible mistake that shouldn't have happened in the first place. You're my best friend's daughter and he has entrusted you to my care for Pete's sake!"
"Is that your excuse? But that doesn't mean we can't feel something for each other," I retorted, my voice rising. "You kissed me back, Robert. You didn't stop me; infact, you seemed to enjoy it!"
Isla's dad had entrusted her to Robert Hardy, his best friend. His goal was for Isla to learn the core of handling business under the scrutiny and watchful eyes of a dear and very trusted old friend, who was to become Isla's mentor, and guardian, but Isla only saw this as an opportunity to finally be able to pursue the strikingly handsome man she has had a huge crush on ever since her young girly heart knew what it meant to feel.
As she settles into Robert's world as his office assistant, sparks ignite dangerously between them as a forbidden steamy romance evolves. Their secret office affair faces a huge threat from Robert's manipulative and materialistic Ex, who also works as his manager.
Amidst the uncertainty, Isla comes face-to-face with the heart wrenching secret of her very dear Robert. As she confronts this secret, her heart breaks into a million pieces on who Robert Hardy truly is. Isla also brutally finds out the most unbelievable truth about her always busy and hardworking parents.
How does Isla handle the emptiness she feels, and the bile life threw directly at her face?

Chapter: DinnerROBERT"Robert, could you believe? mom prepared all these by herself." Mia chuckled. She looked like some excited teenager that managed to invite their boyfriend over for dinner."Really? That's…." To be honest, I didn't know what to say in this kind of situation, but I knew I should be thankful at the heartfelt gesture, right?"... lovely, I feel honored. Thank you." I smiled at May and watch her cheeks color as she secured some strands of hair dancing on her face to the back of her ear. "I hope you like it." May replied, gesturing at the plate in front of me. I opened the cover. May had prepared a classic American style home cooked dinner. The centerpiece was a meatloaf—slightly burnt around the edges, its crust a bit too dark, evidence that she'd left it in the oven longer than intended. Alongside it were buttery mashed potatoes with green beans sautéed with almonds, and a fresh garden salad tossed in a light vinaigrette. There was also cornbread, just a little dry at the top, li

Chapter: UneaseROBERTAs I drove the SUV out of the garage, I redialled Mia's line."Robert," Her voice rang out on the third ring."Mia, what did you do that for?" I tried to keep my voice steady, but the anger still surfaced."What did I do what for?" She replied."You know exactly what I'm talking about.""I don't exactly know what you're talking about, Robert..please be clear."I knew Mia well enough."If you're going to be stooping so low to taunt her, you should at least remember your position." I said sternly. "Whoa, wait Robert, is this about your practicing secretary?""Isla.""I guessed so. This confirms it""Confirms what?""Never mind. 6PM. Don't be late, Robert."I ended the call with a sigh. ****I glanced at the full length mirror and noticed that one of the buttons of my suit was undone. My fingers tugged lazily in an attempt to button it. When I was done dressing up, I picked a car key from my bedside table. I studied it for a while and decided I didn't want to impress so I picke

Chapter: I Love YouROBERTMy hand lifted her chin till she was staring directly at me. Her eyes held a look of surprise. I wondered what was going through her mind this minute. It was a miracle that I had been able to control my fury when I saw Stiles gripping her hand with such possessiveness. Somehow, I imagined he was attracted to get. I mean, who wouldn't be? She was beautiful and had that pull that would lure any man in, but she was mine. I noticed Isla's eyes were closing slowly and her body leaning in against mine. Her lips were forming a small pout. I almost chuckled. Just how cute my baby looked."What are you doing, Isla?" I couldn't help shake the smirk tugging involuntarily at the corner of my lips. I seemed to have dragged my little girl out of her fantasies. Her eyes fluttered open, her lips parted and a small flush kissed her cheeks, making it a light pink shade. "Um.." She moved back a bit, her hand flying to smoothen some strands of hair to her pony tail. "I…"The words trailed. "

Chapter: Girl troubleISLAAs I stomped angrily back to my office, the only image playing in my head was the taunting picture of Mia and Robert. What stupid games was this? I tried to calm myself down. This was her main goal; to piss me off! And yes, it was fucking working, but I shouldn't let it work."Isla!" I heard my name echo through the corridor. I exhaled sharply and turned around to look. Stiles was walking up to me with hurried steps. What did he fucking want right now?"What?" I asked, sounding uncontrollably stern."Why are you so angry? What happened?" He asked, a look of concern etched on his face."I'm not angry, Why? Does it look like I am?" I snapped and mentally tried to calm myself down. 'Okay, Isla..breathe. This isn't the worst she has done.'"It sure looks like you're about to go punch someone, you're literally up in flames."I chuckled. "Well, that's not the case." I tried to move but he caught me with one hand. "So, mind telling me why you've been ignoring my texts all week?"I fl

Chapter: TauntISLAA frown settled deeply on my face and I hissed. I located Robert's mail on my computer. My fingers hovered over the keyboard, my pulse drumming in line with the irritation I felt. My eyes locked onto the name that soured my morning. "Mia fucking bloody Thompson" Because, of course, Mia had to be involved. She was like a stain on a favorite shirt—permanently clinging, refusing to fade no matter how many washes you tried to put it through. I sighed, a very deep sigh. Anyway, what started as a sour day had taken a sweet course. I smiled to myself as my cheeks flushed pink. With an exhale sharp enough to slice glass, I clicked on the "Compose" icon and began typing the message Robert had asked me to send. Subject:URGENT: Cross-Check Attached Details Dear Team, Please review the attached document and fill in your deliverables for the month with the provided prompt.Best regards, Robert Hardy.My fingers hesitated over the send button. Not yet.I stared at Mia’s email ad

Chapter: SecretaryISLAI began to move on top him, riding his dick slowly, his mouth uttering all sorts of pleasurable moan. He moved up, his broad chest glistening beautifully with sweat, whilst pressing against my boobs. He gripped my waist firmly with his strong hands, pressing me against him and helping me to meet his own hard thrusts. "Fuck!" He growled as I felt my walls tightening around his taut flesh. I was so close to seeing stars, so fucking close! The pleasure got me gasping for breath. It was just enough to kill and revive me. We began to move faster, the room was completely filled with the slapping sounds of flesh hitting each other, my moans and his growl reverberated through the entire walls of his private suite. "Oh fuckkkk!" I yelled as I reached my climax."That's it, cum for me." He commanded with a raspy voice, his lips crashing against mine and claiming me in a fervent kiss. He rode me through my orgasm, his tongue thrusting into every corner of my mouth. "Robert," I cried out
