The next morning, the house felt like a minefield. Richard was awake and insistent on sitting in the living room. He looked fragile, his usual commanding aura dimmed.

"Lena," Richard called softly as she walked past with a tray of mint tea. "Can you sit with me for a moment?"

She stiffened, her fingers tightening on the tray. "I should get this to the kitchen, Richard. You need to rest."

"The tea can wait. I feel like I haven't really looked at you in weeks," he said, his voice raspy. He reache

    That night, Lena couldn't sleep.She tossed and turned on her bed while Chloe snored softly from the next room.After several failed attempts at forcing herself to sleep, she sat upright.Her gaze landed on the package resting on her desk.The mysterious package.Curiosity instantly got the better of her."Fine."She climbed out of bed and carried the box to the couch."Let's see what all the fuss is about."Carefully, she opened it.The moment she lifted the lid, her eyes widened.Inside was a box of chocolates.A beautiful golden jewelry set.And a shiny preserved rose.Lena couldn't stop the smile that spread across her face.The gesture was thoughtful.Her attention shifted to the envelope she had ignored earlier.She picked it up and unfolded the letter.From Your Admirer to My Princess.Lena smiled.Then continued reading."I know we haven't been talking much lately.""That's my fault, and I take full responsibility for it.""I should have called more.""Or texted more.""My sch

    The next morning, Chloe wouldn't stop apologizing."Lena, I'm so sorry."She stood in front of her with a guilty expression."I should never have left you alone."Lena sighed."Chloe, it's okay.""No, it's not."Chloe crossed her arms."I left for one minute,and everything went wrong."Before Lena could respond, Chloe pointed toward the couch."You're not doing anything today.""What?""I'm making breakfast."Lena laughed."You don't have to.""I do."Chloe immediately turned and marched back into the kitchen.Lena shook her head and settled onto the couch.A movie was playing on the television while the smell of breakfast slowly filled the apartment.The doorbell rang."Yeah! I'm coming!"Lena started getting up."Hold up!"Chloe rushed out from the kitchen."I'll get it.""But your—""No worries."She pointed at Lena."Just sit your ass down for today."Lena chuckled."Fine."A minute passedCurious, Lena stood up and walked toward the entrance."Chloe, who's there?"Chloe folded he

    A few minutes later, Lena had gotten tired of waiting for Chloe.She glanced around the bar for what felt like the hundredth time before sighing heavily."Where could she have gone?" she mumbled.The alcohol buzzing through her system wasn't helping her patience.With a shrug, she pushed herself off the stool and stumbled toward the dance floor.The music blasted through the speakers as colorful lights flashed around the room.Lena laughed to herself and began swaying her waist to the rhythm.Then suddenly, a pair of strong arms wrapped around her waist from behind.Lena stiffened.The stranger pulled her closer against his body.She immediately turned around.A man she had never seen before was staring down at her.His smile made her skin crawl."Let go of me," Lena said, trying to pull away.The man chuckled.Unfortunately, he was much stronger."Relax, beautiful."His grip tightened."How about we go somewhere else so you can show me some of those moves?"A creepy smile spread acro

    Lena couldn't believe what she was seeing.She stood frozen in shock, trying to understand what was happening.Before she could react, Richard lunged toward her and grabbed her shoulders, shaking her violently."Bitch, what more do you want?" he shouted. "I regret the day I met you."Jayden immediately rushed forward while Chloe struggled to pull Richard away.The moment Jayden reached them, he shoved Richard so hard that he stumbled backward and crashed onto the floor."You bastard!" Richard groaned.Jayden stepped in front of Lena instantly, shielding her from him.Richard let out a bitter laugh as he slowly got back to his feet."Don't you see what she's doing?" he snapped.His finger pointed directly at Lena."This bitch wants to turn us against each other so she can take my wealth. Such a slut."A look of disgust crossed Chloe's face."Old man, you better get your ass out of here before I call the cops."Richard smirked."Cops? Sure. Do it.""Dad, stop this madness," Jayden said

    When they finally arrived, Lena realized it wasn't just another random place.It was a hill.Tall trees surrounded the area, their branches swaying gently in the cool night breeze. The path ahead sloped downward, disappearing into the darkness below."Whoa. Jayden, are you sure this place is safe?" Lena asked, peering over the edge from the top.Without saying a word, he held out his hand.She hesitated."Trust me," he said with a reassuring nod.After a moment, Lena placed her hand in his.Jayden carefully guided her down the narrow path. The terrain was uneven, and halfway through, Lena accidentally missed a step.A small gasp escaped her lips.Before she could fall, Jayden's arm wrapped around her."I got you."Lena let out a shaky breath."Thanks."He simply smiled and continued leading her forward.A few minutes later, they reached a clearing.Jayden spread his arms dramatically."Behold!" he announced proudly, sounding like a captain who had finally discovered a hidden treasure.

  • A Forbidden Affair    Girls Day Out

    Lena felt like she was slowly going crazy.And Chloe was not helping at all.She has always been her support system.Now she needed her; she was giving her cold shoulders.Meanwhile, Jayden had made it his personal mission to get her to agree to the dinner date. He called her in the morning, “casually” bringing up the dinner again, like she hadn’t already said she would think about it.Ethan, on the other hand, was amazing.They had been having light conversations for a while, teasing, and flirting like teenagers.It was confusing.Because part of her liked how simple things felt with Ethan, but another part of her kept getting pulled back into everything with Jayden.It was more like a hot and cold situation.Right now, she wasn’t even in the mood to think too deeply about it.“Chloe,” Lena called from her room. “Have you seen my gold heels?”“I haven’t,” Chloe replied from the living room without even looking up.Lena walked out slowly, already suspicious.Chloe was on the couch sc

    Jayden clung onto her, like she was going to wash away with the water.His erection was straining against her thigh.She turned around to pick up the shower gel, and he groaned at the sight.She stood giggling.You little tease, he said, biting his lips.She squeezed the shower gel and began rubbin

    When Lena woke up the next morning, the bed beside her was empty.For a brief second, panic gripped her chest.She quickly pushed the blanket away and stepped out of the room, only to find Jayden downstairs near the reception area, speaking into what looked like an old local telephone line mounted

    They remained that way for what felt like forever. The storm outside continued raging violently, the wind crashing against the walls while silence stretched between them underneath the blanket. It was Jayden who finally broke it. “Do you feel better?” he asked softly, concern laced clearly in h

    When they finally got back to the apartment, Lena let out a long sigh the moment the door closed behind them.
