BELLE “Jamie can't breathe!” Jordan cried, and a forced air escaped my lungs from the outburst. My knees buckled slightly, and my body betrayed me as I tripped. Before I could fall, Rowan lunged forward, catching me by my arms.“Hey… What's going on?” He asked, voice laced with worry.“Mommy…” Jordan's voice crackled through the phone, snapping me back to reality.I straightened instantly. “Hold on, baby, mommy will be right there.” I ran out without another word, my heart pounding, whispering the same line over and over again.Jamie is fine. She will be fine.I kept on repeating the word as I rushed out of the club to find a cab. I stood there for the next five minutes, and all the cabs I saw were already filled.God, please.Just then, a car pulled beside me, and the window rolled down. “Get in,” Rowan ordered.“Now is not the time for your games,” I hissed.“You'll get there faster with my help. Is your kid not in danger?” He asked. I looked around to see if there was any cab com

BELLE I was in the middle of my shift, trying to attend to the customers when my phone began to vibrate in my pocket.Oh god. Not now.I pulled out my phone and stared at the screen. It was an unknown number.“Hello?” I answered the phone, but the loud music blasting in the club made it impossible to hear anything.“Pass our drink!” One of the customers whined, and I ended the call to attend to him.The club was unusually wild tonight, packed with a bunch of rich kids celebrating God knows what.“Here you go,” I forced a smile as I served their table. “We ex… expect m-more treatment from y-you… this is the vip lounge,” one slurred.“Do you need anything else?” I asked politely.“Y-yes… you,” he grinned, and his friends burst into laughter. Fucking asshole. I signaled to my colleague who came to my rescue just before the conversation could go any further.“Go, I'll take care of this,” he offered, and I gave him a grateful smile.“Can I have a shot?” A familiar voice called. I look

AUTHOR'S POV It's the weekend, and Rowan decided to pick Faye up from work since they have not seen each other in a while, and when they do, they end up arguing.“Hey babe, did I keep you waiting?” Faye asked as she slid into the passenger seat.Rowan shook his head, his eyes crinkling at the corner as he replied. “Not at all, I just got here too.”“Oh, great,” she fastened her seat belt as he relaxed a little. “I had a really crazy day. Who would have thought that bitch leaving would only make things harder?” A frown formed on her face as she spoke.“Who are we hating this time?” Rowan chuckled as he listened to her rant.“Who else? It's Belle. Since that bitch left, Mr. Marlowe has become even more cold and sensitive. He fired his fourth secretary today. Can you imagine? It feels like we're all walking on egg shells at the office. Just a breath in his way and you'd be the next to receive his wrath,” she hissed.“Interesting. Do you think he has fallen for Belle? I mean, that would

ZALDEN “You disgust me!” She shoved me off. Her face flushed red, and I couldn't tell if it was out of anger or embarrassment.What the hell am I doing?“You want me,” the words just kept slipping out of my mouth as if I was being controlled by a fucking remote. “There is no point denying it, Belle.”The chemistry between us is undeniable. And I hate to admit that I want her too.She scoffed at my words, and for once, I wanted to know exactly what was going through her head.I was used to people living up to my expectations. Doing everything I asked. Trying to please me even in uncomfortable situations, I don't know what to do when someone acts up.If she wanted money, why was she playing hard to get? She's not expecting me to chase her, does she? That sounds even more ridiculous.“I am sexually frustrated. So what?” She shook her head, like she couldn't even believe she was saying that out loud.“Are you going to use that to mock me? To claim me? Like I was some fucking dog who ha

BELLE “You weren't just hired, Belle.” His hot breath fanned my neck, waking every nerve in my bones, as goosebumps rose on my skin. “You're mine.”That is it?I snorted at his words, and whatever I was feeling was instantly replaced with anger.“I'm yours?” I took a step back, leaving a space between us. “Since when?” A humourless laugh escaped my lips as I stared at him in disbelief.“Because the last time I checked, I was just a loose woman who sleeps around and pretends she earned it, isn't it?”A surge of rage coursed through my veins as I recollected the look on his face when he said those words. And now, he thinks he could claim me?Is this all a joke to him?Of course, it is. I was just another puzzle he needed to solve. He couldn't accept me quitting on my own. As if humiliating me wasn't enough, he just had to come here to finish what he started.“Look, you weren't supposed to hear that,” he rubbed his hands on his face and sniffed his breath. “That was fucked. I know I s

ZALDEN “You're fired.”This is the third time I'd be repeating those words in the space of a month. Turns out Belle wasn't as bad as I thought. “S-sir… please,” She fiddled with the hem of her dress, with a pleading eye.“I'll call the security if you make me repeat myself,” I warned.She ran out of my office in tears, and I released a breath. I didn't even bother learning their names anymore. They're not worth it.Why apply for a job if you can't get it done?Just then, the door cracked open and just before I'd snap at her, Andrew walked in.“Not good enough?” He sighed.“Where do you keep digging those dummies?” I hissed.“You don't even give them a chance. How else are they supposed to prove themselves?”“By working.” I snorted. “They're either too slow or too dumb… how do they pass the interview?”“I interview all of them like I did to everyone else in the company, and trust me, they're good…” Andrew trailed off before giving me a look.“Do you want me to call her back? If we of
