It’s been a week since Heira heard from Sebastian. The office hasn’t been the same without him. His desk which was always filled with files has remained neat and quiet.

She has left a series of voicemails, one each day since he stopped showing up but still hasn’t gotten a response from him. Only when she visited his apartment did she hear about him being involved in an accident.

She rushed to the hospital. His neighbour, Mr. Andrew, a middle-aged man with greying hair, gave her the address. Though he hesitated, which was strange since he knew her relationship to Sebastian, she didn’t dwell on it, being used to his behavior.

Mr Andrew lived alone. He always sat by his doorstep, observing his surroundings. He barely spoke to anyone and sometimes forgot what day it was. Some said he suffered from mild dementia and others thought he was just lonely. No one really knows or has ever seen his family around. And there are a lot of rumours tied to that as well.

  • Arranged To Be His   Grief

    “Yes… Yes!” Dante screamed in excitement, fisting his fingers as he forced down his hands. His joy knew no bounds. He looked like someone who had finally gotten what they wanted. His eyes wandered just to see Granny Mae and Heira sitting clueless, looking like they hadn’t been invited to the party.“Hughh,” Dante heaved a sigh when he realized he had to let them know. “The company had just secured approval to expand into Milan.” he said with all forms of happiness. Heira realized how big of a news this was. She smiled widely joining Dante who kept looking at his phone like he wasn't sure he had interpreted the information well.“Milan? Why do you need an expansion there? You already have enough branches,” Granny Mae exclaimed.“Nana, I have just five. New York, Los Angeles, Cape Town, Monaco, and here in Chicago, the headquarters. I’m nowhere near enough. Milan is the new goldmine where a lot of investors are. And the economy there has skyrocketed.”“That doesn't mean you should overw

  • Arranged To Be His   Absent

    Fred froze at the sight of Dante. His eyes widened and his smirk disappeared as he met his stern glare which alone could’ve cut through steel. Heira steadied herself, her heart pounding as Dante’s grip held her protectively. Dante turned his focus back to Fred. His face burning with rage and his hands curled into fist. Followed behind him was Charles, they had both stormed out from the boardroom where they reviewed their merger documents after they had been informed of Heira’s involvement in the commotion happening outside. The rest of the employees standing nearby fled when they saw Charles. “What’s going on here?” he demanded, taking a look around. “You should ask him,” Dante said while pointing to Fred. His deep voice rising louder than intended as he lashed out. “Is this how you run things here? How do you let your daughter be treated this way in your own company?” he said to Charles. Charles' face hardened towards Fred. “You think this company gives you the right to treat my d

  • Arranged To Be His   Confronting a Long-lost Enemy

    As the soft morning light spilled through the curtains. Heira made her way downstairs, her hair loosely tied in a messy bun. She saw Dante and Granny Mae already seated in the dining room, ready for breakfast. Dante looked like he was office ready. His black suit blended with the white shirt underneath showing off his broad shoulders. His soft hair was neatly combed back with just a few strands falling over his forehead. Granny Mae’s face brightened the instant she saw her. “There’s my beautiful granddaughter-in-law,” she said warmly, her voice coming out soft and a bit squeaky. “Come, sit with us, darling.” She signalled to Heira with a gentle sweep of her hand. She then shot Dante a knowing look that clearly said ‘Be a gentleman.’ Dante pulled out a chair reluctantly. A frown clearly written on his face making it obvious he didn’t want to do that. “You know, you reminded me so much of his mother.” Granny Mae said after she couldn’t keep her eyes off her as they continued to feas

    “You need to watch how you move, Heira.” Dante’s voice sounded from behind. He stood a few feet away, his hand in his pocket while the other hung loosely at his side. His firm stance gave away his attractiveness. His six foot five appearance complimenting how effortlessly he commands authority. There was no way anyone would object to him. He held out his hands and waved a finger warningly. His eyes narrowed at her. “I only held back because of my Nana. I wouldn’t next time, so it would be best if you stayed in your lane.” Heira refused to give him the satisfaction. She didn’t want Dante to think that he still had power over her. He has hurt her too many times, and she wasn’t going to let him see how much his words still affect her. Instead she walked past him, pretending not to hear or care. Anger flared through Dante. He didn’t like that he was being ignored. In two strides, he caught her wrist and spinned her around until they were face to face. He lifted her chin so her cheek

  • Arranged To Be His   Not Again

    Heira got up from the bed she lay on, her eyes catching something familiar. A charm bracelet lying on the table. She reached for it, her fingers brushing over the tiny silver charms dangling from the chain. It looked familiar. Then she remembered, it was the same one Sebastian had given her on her last birthday. She smiled as she caressed it in her hand. Each year, they exchanged gifts, a quiet ritual that had somehow become their thing. She had always looked forward to it, wondering what thoughtful gift he would come up with next. She remembered wearing this bracelet almost every day until she’d misplaced it a week ago. Sebastian stepped into the room, his expression easing when he saw her awake. “You’re up,” he said softly. “How are you feeling now?” Heira nodded, brushing some strands of hair behind her ear. “I feel much better.” “Good. You had me worried for a bit.” She couldn’t help but smile faintly. He had made her eat the meal he prepared, take her medication and rest a
