Zane's POV.

I have learned many important things in life. How to build a company from nothing, how to sit in rooms filled with powerful men and never flinch.

I learned how to smile when I was bleeding inside but one thing I had never learned was how to pretend in my own home.

The only thing that had my attention was the laptop that was placed in front of me. I noticed that Laura was coming towards me, like she always did when she wanted something from me.

I knew that she was coming to demand more things from me because that is the only thing she ever does. She does all of it with a fake smile, I am the one who works but she's the one who spends all the money.

She stood in front of me and she intertwined her fingers with mine as though we were some kind of lovers who shared so much love between each other, and not two strangers that were trapped in the same space.

“Zane. You have been distant all day. Have you forgotten that you are my husband?” she said in the sweetest voice ever an

    Vanessa's POV.When I told my father that I was now ready to take over the company, I didn't expect my voice to sound so calm.I had rehearsed the words in my head a hundred times. When they finally left my mouth, they came out steady, like I had been waiting my whole life to say it.“I want to take over the family's business.” I finally said and my father lifted up his head to look at me, his reading glasses sliding down his nose.He stared at me like I had just spoken a language he didn't expect me to know. My mother stew maintained her position beside him but to me she looked as though she was frozen and couldn't speak at that moment.“What did you say?” My Dad asked for a second time, pretending as though he did not hear what I said the first time.I was very sure that he was just trying to understand that those words were coming from me and no one else.“I said I am ready to take over the family's business.” I repeated and silence took over.For a moment no one spoke, then my mot

    Vanessa’s POV.The restaurant Lucian took me to was exactly how I liked it. Very private and very warm. It wasn't loud. Neither was it crowded, I admired the low lights as the sound of the soft music filled my ears. Overall, the restaurant was the kind of place anyone could come to if they just wanted to feel safe for a few hours.“Are you okay?” Lucian asked and I looked up at him. Ever since he came into my life. He has been everything that I have ever wanted in a man, he was so observant and caring towards me.“Yeah. I'm okay, probably just a little bit tired.” I said and I noticed the way he studied my face like he actually cared about the answer I gave to him.“You know that you don't have to pretend with me.” he said and his words alone made my heart skip a beat.It felt as though there was someone else apart from me that could actually understand my feelings better than me.Lucian had been nothing but gentle with me since the day we reconnected. Probably he was just trying to

    Damon's POV.Sabrina slammed the car door harder than I had expected. The vibration filled my ears.I knew how her anger was so I had advised myself not to say anything to her. Instead I just started the engine of my car and zoomed out of the parking lot.I didn't fail to notice the way she crossed her arms and looked out of the window. Her lips were pressed together as though she wanted to say a whole lot to me but not at that moment.She needed me to ask her what was wrong with her and if I did not do as she wanted, then there was definitely not going to be any peace between us. So I finally spoke up. “Are you going to tell me what that was about?” I asked finally.At first it was silent, because she didn't give me an answer. And I knew better than to press harder.“Sabrina, I am talking to you. At least give me an answer.”“Don't.” She said and she turned towards me. When I looked at her I could see anger in her eyes and that single word she said just told me everything that I nee

    Vanessa's POV.I was seated in my car, lost in my own thoughts. I heard a knock on my car window and I turned to see Sabrina. Obviously, it wouldn't be anyone else other than her because she always showed up uninvited.I knew what she was coming for. To banter words with me just like always but this time around I was not ready to do all of that because my head was already filled with so many thoughts that I didn't even want to think about but I had no other choice.My chest felt tight because I had purposely refused to feel things anymore. And the last thing I needed was her voice trying to disturb my peace.“Well, look at you, you're still standing strong even after everything. I'm really impressed.” she said, her eyes scrutinizing my body intensely.I removed my face away from hers, because I didn't want to give her the impression that her words actually mattered to me.“Say what you came to say Sabrina. I'm already tired.” I said calmly and she chuckled at my words.“Hold on a min
