It was so sudden that I literally jerked and almost fell if I hadn’t caught myself.“Oh my God, dad, you scared me!” I exclaimed as I turned around and saw him at the window. He was clearly waiting for me and then peeped at the window when he heard the car. “I’m sorry, I didn’t mean to. Want to sit and catch your breath?” He asked while I shook my head.“Nah, I’m so exhausted, I really can’t wait to get in my bed and sleep off.” I chimed in and he nodded.“Alright then, I’m glad you’re back home safe. We’ll talk in the morning.” He simply said and that was it.I went into my room and despite the deep urge to get under the shower, I didn’t. I jumped into my bed and the second my body touched the fluffy sheets, I slept off. By the time I opened my eyes, it was already morning but I still didn’t want to get up so I just stayed there, closed my eyes and tried to go back to sleep.After about ten minutes, I opened my eyes as sleep h
Vance “What?!” I let out and then burst into laughter buy I stopped when I saw the look on her face.“Don’t tell me you’re being serious right now.” I chimed in and she nodded with a smile.“I’m dead serious, Vance.” She affirmed and I shook my head.“You know that’s not serious. We made it clear when we broke up that it’s over for good. There’s no way you want us back now.” I argued while she just shrugged.“Why not? Is there another woman because that’s the only reason I can think of that can make you not consider your relationship of six years. I mean, don’t you remember the plans we made, the love we shared, and even if you forget all that, what about our intimacy, we always made sweet passionate love, Vance. I still remember it all, there’s no day that I don’t think about it and I want it back. I want you and I know you do too.” She insisted and I shook my head again.“No, I don’t. I have another woman now and I love her so much. I introduced her to my family today, I’m going to
Vance“I’ll call you when I get home.” I retorted as I pulled in front of lyra’s house. She didn’t say a word, she only nodded.“Thank you for tonight, I hope you’re able to forgive me though… and maybe think about my offer while doing so.” I added, trying to lighten the mood and it sort of worked because she finally smiled. “I have nothing to say to you.” She replied but I heard the undertone and it was a good one so I smiled. I watched her get out of the car and then walk into the house. I could barely breathe, my whole head, spirit and soul were all filled with her thoughts. When the door closed behind her, I took a deep breath and then finally drove away. Through the drive home, I kept thinking about her and I just knew I had to get her into my life. I love her so much and I’ll do anything to have her. I smiled as I pictured her walking down the aisle with me. I pictured how I’d react when I see her in her wedding dress, when our child arrives and how I’d love it with all my h
Lyra“Wait! Lyra! Please wait!! I’m sorry, please hear me out!” Vance kept calling after me but I didn’t stop. I kept walking till I suddenly felt a pull. He had finally caught up with me and once he grabbed my hand, he wouldn’t let go. “Please just hear me out, I’m so sorry, I know you’re mad at me, just let me explain.” He begged desperately but I wasn’t ready to listen to whatever lies he had to tell.“No, thank you, I have no interest in whatever you have to say, you’re just going to tell more lies and I’ve had enough.” I blurted and then tried to yank off his hand but I couldn’t. His grip was tight and even after looking at him, giving him a knowing stare, he still wouldn’t take the hint.“I’m sorry but I can’t let you go. You’re going to run off and I can’t let that happen without explaining myself.” He explained while I rolled my eyes angrily.“But you’re hurting me, you can say whatever you want without holding my hand.” I said and he stared at me for a long second before he
Lyra"Right here," a deep, familiar voice sounded from behind while I stiffened. I didn’t need to turn around to know who it was. His voice and the look on Rosemary’s face already gave it away. “Mom, dad. I’m sorry I’m late, I was on a call with the London office.” He chimed in while I finally tur
Lyra Just a week ago, the stack of hundreds had felt like a slap in the face when they hit the bed but now, they were my lifesaver. I looked up and saw my Birkin bag sitting pretty by the dresser. Of course, it looked out of place, it’s the only luxury I have left of my former life. I’ve spent t

LyraI froze as I stared at my phone. I couldn’t believe what was on the screen, but the notifications continued rushing in. “Andrew Vane accused of $900m embezzlement.”My hands started shaking when I saw people calling for my father’s head. They wouldn’t even give him the benefit of the doubt. T
