Elliot'S POV

I walked into my office bearing my briefcase in one hand and making vast strides. All my employees were moving forward to greet me and quickly go back to their jobs, with the corners of their eyes looking up at me. The look of respect was mixed with fear; I was used to it, so their attention did not bother me.

Those men tried to suck up to me for their gains, yet I could tell they hated me and were jealous of my quick success and the fact that so many women at the office had fallen for me. But these were all in silence and with gestures. In reality, no one would dare show even a bit of defiance to back this up. I bossed the place with a strong hand; there was no room for slackness.

But something was different about today. Instead of my secretary, it was the director of operations in IT who ran up to me first when I arrived at the company. He collected my suitcase and then said to me almost immediately as I entered the company.

"Sir, I'm afraid we almost had trouble, sir; someone just tried hacking into our database. But it's totally taken care of."

I stared at him, as we both headed to the IT department.

"Taken care of? How far did the hacker go?"

He kept silent, arms kept behind him, head bowed.

"How far did they go, Tom?" I said, "How far did they fucking go?"I couldn't help but scream.

"99, sir, 99 percent." He quickly said, still cowering.

I also noticed that everyone else was listening to the conversation; all of them were also cowering before their computers, concentrating too closely on their various projects, but their ears were wide open.

"99 percent?" I repeated with a scoff.

"Who do I have working for me in IT? Bunch of kindergartens! Now listen up, everyone. I need the first five offices in IT represented in my office in the next 30 minutes. And God help the staff who doesn't give a comprehensive explanation of what just occurred, will be gone from this company."

I stormed away angrily, walking toward my office, adjusting my tie., I saw my secretary waiting for me at the entrance.

"Sir, Ms. Amanda has been waiting for you for a while; I think she has something important to discuss with you."

“Amanda? Why is she outside? Send her in.” I replied, walking into my office and sitting on my chair to begin work. I checked the document I was working on the previous day before getting up and walking to the glass windows of the highest building in the city.

I stared out the window of my office, sipping my coffee slowly. I had just completed the last of my work and was free.

"Elliot."

I turned to see the oval-faced Amada smiling at me. She wore a long suit that reached her calves. Her hair was brown and wavy. Amanda was our family lawyer's daughter, and we have been friends for a long time. There was a dutifulness to the way she carried herself; maybe that was what drew me to her. I could tell she liked me too; it wasn't hard to tell, but in her smile and her availability, I could still see that there was a yearning for something more than just friendship, and I wasn't sure if I could give that.

Maybe one day, one day.

"How is the bid coming along?" She asked, sitting down and placing the file she was clutching on the desk.

"Going great. I got the cover sheets typed up."

"If I let some of these things slide, we're done." She laughed an indulgent laugh and said,

"I know."

"Make time to rest." She reached for my hand, fumbled with it, and immediately let go like one who realized she had done something stupid. I stare at her, not knowing what to make of the situation.

At that instant, I received a call that the contractor secretary wanted a meeting held in Baton's nightclub.

"Speak of the devil," I said, putting on my jacket."

"What?" Amanda asked with wide eyes.

"They want a meeting at Baton's nightclub."

"A nightclub? Why?" she asked, raising a brow, and I smiled. Was she worried about me?

"I don't know," I said too excitedly. "I just need to get more information about the deal."

"See ya," I said, storming out with hasty strides.

At the club, after the meeting. I had started to feel drunk even when I had taken nothing more than three sips from the drinks served. My vision had gone blurry, and the loud music became even louder. I tried looking for a more quiet place for solace, and my leg led me to a small room with lights dimmer than the other parts of the club. Inside it was a lady in her nightgown. I don't know if it was as a result of the drink, but I had become quite horny upon seeing the lady and had staggered towards her. I couldn't even see her clearly.

I had touched her and kissed her, and she had returned my kisses just as passionately. I picked her up, took her to the bed, and we had one of the best sex ever in my life. I was already inside her when I realized she was a virgin.

I woke up the next morning still feeling dizzy but much more clear-headed. The woman from yesterday was still lying beside me, sleeping with her hair covering her face. Patches of blood from her broken hymen stained the bed. I felt so ashamed. I knew it wasn't ra**pe, but it felt like I had ra**ped her and taken advantage of her. Could this still be said to be consensual? I wasn't sure of a lot of things; however, the only thing I was sure of was that I had been drugged yesterday. Something must have been added to my drink yesterday. And to the bottom of everything, I will try getting up and making my head still ring like a doorbell. I dropped a bundle of dollar notes on the bed in an attempt to pacify my conscience before I got up to leave hurriedly.

I needed to get to the contract bidding as soon as possible.

After the meeting, I got two calls. The first was that I had gotten the contract, which made me happy but not as much as I would have initially been without yesterday's occurrence. The second was from my investigator, who said that the person who had booked the hotel room I slept in yesterday was a lady by the name of Olivia Mack. The next set of instructions I gave to my investigator was to trace out her location and also find out the identity of the people responsible for the drugging of my drink that very day.

    SOPHIE'S POVI shifted the thick, opaque curtains that fell over the window in my room to one side as I observed the gate of our house through the transparent glass upstairs.The Tesla had just driven out through the open gate, and one of the uninformed security guards had begun to close it up.Elliot, who had been raising fire and brimstone some moments ago, had finally resigned to the strong will of his daughter. He has finally yielded to her persuasion as well as that of her older twin, Amelia. I let out a small smile. Was it not funny that despite his so-called anger about the recent developments, he still insisted on dropping them off at the park, even when Amelia kept insisting that the park was not that far? Sometimes, I find myself debating again who actually pampered Isabella more between her father and grandfather. I let out a wider smile this time.I drew the curtains closed again and returned to my bed to sit quietly."Just like yesterday," I whispered.It was so hard to

    GENERAL POVOwen was sitting stiffly inside Michael's larger-than-life office space. While Michael reclined at the other end of the desk, his manner was a little more relaxed since the last time they met at his school. They were having a conversation about Isabella."Have you called my sister yet?" Owen asked calmly."No, not yet," Michael answered, almost blushing at the sound of Isabella's name.Owen shrugged weakly and said,"But why her? I mean, what drew you to her? She literally dresses like a guy. Though I know my sister is beautiful, if you're not close to her like us, you might never know."Michael let out an indulgent smile, readjusting his seat and leaning forward before he spoke again.Actually, I've seen Isabella several times without her usual regalia. Erm, you know, her usual regalia." He let out a gentle laugh.Then, a little more quietly, he added:"She is so kind and beautiful."Owen laughed too, in a way that said, "I thought as much,"Then Michael went on to tap h

    ISABELLA’S POVI opened my eyes faintly the next morning after a long sleep the previous night, rolling over tiredly on the hospital's compact bed. Then suddenly, my body brushed against the rigid weight of someone sitting with his back turned against me on the bed. I sat up immediately, rubbing my palms over my face and eyes to brighten my vision. The person turned over at once, and to my relief, it was the face of Dr. James.My curious expression softened into a smile. He smiled too, and with a soothing voice, he asked,"How are you feeling?"His gaze switched to my neck and arms.I involuntarily touched the plastered areas on my hands before I said,"I'm quite fine; it was just a slight accident."A small silence ensued. He stared at me with deep care in his eyes, and for a second I had to bite my lip and look away shyly.Then he inhaled and brought out my phone from the pocket of his lab coat. Then he made a weak gesture with his hand before he said,"Your phone; I charged it for

    Nathan arrived at the Epiloxx Club as directed by the address from Isabella's text message. As soon as he got out of the taxi, He walked towards the entrance and stopped for a moment to catch his breath before attempting to go in. He stopped again and flexed his wrist to see what the time was saying on his gold watch; it was exactly 11:30 am. He inhaled and exhaled to calm his nerves, trying to imagine the look Scarlett would have on her face the moment she eventually saw him, as well as the reaction of this so-called boyfriend of hers. Then he brashly waved his hand as if to say, "Whatever." Before proceeding finally into the building with slow but steady strides. While inside the club and standing awkwardly near the door with surveilling eyes, the first thing Nathan's eyes picked out from the crowded, noisy hall illuminated with dull multicolored lights was the sight of Scarlett kissing a guy at the back of the room, a man whom Nathan immediately identified as Kevin. He froze and

    General POVIsabella's apartment was located less than 10 minutes away from her school, immediately outside the terminating bar gate.She was in the house, sitting in her cozy blue-painted bedroom with the warm, masculine-looking decor and walls pervaded by the many photographs of bikers and popular sportsmen around the world.She was wreathed in blue tops and shorts, which also marched with the color of her room, sporting a pair of expensive trainers, leaning over to untie and retie the shoelaces with a meticulous expression on her face and taut lips. She lifted her head quickly to check the vintage clocks hanging above the arc when she was done and mouthed the words:"Five minutes past six already?" looking surprised and taken aback."Oh my God." She whispered again, springing up to her feet hurriedly. The event she was about to attend was actually a racing exercise organized by her teammates back in school and was supposed to begin at exactly 6:30; she had just 25 minutes left to
