She froze.

Her eyes slowly shifted downward. An arm was wrapped around her. Her heart immediately began pounding.

Who's this? Where am I?

She inhaled a deep breath.

She remembered waiting for her boss to return before she fell asleep. For few minutes, she had already forgot her current situation.

He must be very mad at me.

On the other hand, Devian was still wondering what Vanessa was doing. He knew she was awake, but he heard no sound coming from her.

'Hold on.'

Then she realized

    [Azure Hotel and Suites - Devian's Suite] They had both started eating, but of course not without Devian having to practically force Vanessa to eat. She sat across from him, eating slowly while still looking slightly uncomfortable with the whole situation. She wasn't used to sitting down and having dinner on a dinning table at her home talk less with him like this, especially when she knew she was supposed to be working. “Where's your phone?” he asked. Vanessa immediately looked at him with an 'I don't trust you look' . Devian couldn't help but laugh a little. “I don't bite."he paused. Seeing she still didn't give a response, he continued." It's okay if you don't want to give it to me.” She simply nodded, no longer bothered by the question, faced her food and continued eating. She must admit that this is the best she has eaten in days or years? She stayed focused on her food trying to savor the taste and the feeling. For a while, neither of them said much. They were bo

    “Please, I really need to get home,” she said, hoping he would change his mind. Of course, he knew her trick.“That won’t work. You’re supposed to be with me until after my dinner, right?” She nodded. He slowly stood after releasing her hands, then settled beside her. Vanessa quickly sat up and turned her back toward him, hiding her blush. Devian smirked, already aware of her reaction.She quickly stood up. “I’ll go get your dinner ready.” He shook his head.“There’ll be no need for that. It’s already been taken care of. Let’s go.”He stood up, walked to the other side, and held his hand out to her. She hesitated for a moment before taking it. He then led her outside.As they headed out, Vanessa kept thinking about how much trouble she was in.'I’m so fired.' But then another thought crossed her mind.'Why is he so cool about all of this? And why is he holding my hand?' “You okay?” he asked when she sighed without realizing it. She nodded her head, still wondering why he was asking.

  • Bound by My Signature    Chapter Fifteen - He's so shameless

    [The Browns Residence] The house was unusually quiet as no one was at home. Mira had the place to herself. She was in the backyard, enjoying the swimming pool. The afternoon sun reflected across the surface of the water as she swam from one end to the other, completely lost in her own world. She surfaced, pushing her wet hair away from her face before taking another deep breath and diving in again. She had been there for more than an hour. She hadn't noticed that there was someone watching her and was very close to her sight of view. Ethan stood near the glass doors, his arms folded across his chest. His gaze remained fixed on Mira admiring her, but his mind was somewhere else entirely. He hadn't planned on coming here but couldn't help him self. He had tried several ways to approach her but she didn't budge. .l His thoughts kept returning to everything that had happened lately—the way Mira had been acting, the way she always avoided him. He sighed quietly. He really lik

On the other hand, Devian was still wondering what Vanessa was doing. He knew she was awake, but he heard no sound coming from her. 'Hold on.' Then she realized. This is my boss's room, but whose hand is this? Her heart skipped. It can't be. She closed her eyes and took her lips into her mouth. She began to turn slowly, trying not to wake whoever it was. When she turned fully and saw him. "Ahhhh!" Vanessa shouted out loud, unable to stop herself. As Vanessa screamed, Devian forgot his pretense and quickly sat up. The first thought that came to his mind was his mom finding out that Vanessa was in his room and had even slept there. He acted witho

    "Vanessa" No response. "Vanessa." He called her name again. Still nothing. He gently shooked her shoulder. She didn't even stir. He sighed. "You must have been exhausted." For a moment, he considered waking her again. Instead, he carefully removed her shoes and pulled the blanket over her. He was about standing up he lost his balance then fell on her. He looked at her hand she had already held unto him without him knowing. He tried to stand up, but her grip on his shirt was too tight. Very unexpected for a girl her size. "Please, don't go", Vanessa said as tears flowed out of her eyes. He softened at her tone. "You must be really stressed out" he held her chin. "I definitely would have loved to take you from here but you are too fragile for my dark world." he paused for some minutes. "But don't worry, I'll definitely be by your side always. This is a promise from your husband" he smiled so wide. He tried to adjust himself to the other side of the bed care

    While in Devians room, Vanessa was already done with her chores but she couldn't leave. She had heard his mom's voice. "Seemed like they were arguing about something". But she couldn't leave despite wanting to. She had heard about her, a very strict person just like her son is. "If I go, I might get fired for disobeying him and I don't want to meet his mom" she sighed in frustration. "What to do" she moved all her equipments towards the door and decided to wait for him to come back. She couldn't risk her job. "Where to sit"she then moved to the bed side and sat on it. "Wow it really soft nothing like the brick called bed I sleep on." "I'll just take a quick nap before he comes back," she murmured. Within minutes, she was fast asleep. ********** [Unknown Place] This place doesn't look like where anyone should be or live in. Around it paints everywhere, dirt lying on the ground, cigarettes scattered all around. But let's not forget, the smell. Stench polluting
