‘Checking with you to ensure the cake is delivered at the earlier agreed-upon time. We will be sending the cake on your wedding day.’‘Happy Married life in advance, Ms. Beckett!’Zoe held her phone in her hand, reading through the messages over and over again.First, the flower decorations had placed a call, now the baker for cake, the event center also reached out and her event planner had sent tons of emails to her inbox.Zoe didn’t blink. She knew what they were after.Their balance. These people wanted their balance more than they cared about what was really going on with her.It was obvious.Zoe scoffed.Some of them like the event planner had gone ahead to subtly ask if she would still get her balance if the wedding would no longer take place.Zoe leaned her head back on the couch, closing her eyes, allowing her annoyance wash away.Her mind went to her savings.Now that she had cut off Rogue cosmetics and Aurelle had done the same to her, she had three brands remaining.Two

“What ….? Wh … How?” Zoe spluttered.She jumped from the couch, her feet narrowly missing the sharp leg of the middle glass table.“Hey, take it easy. It was just a joke.”Nathaniel stretched his right hand forward.Zoe brushed his hand away.“Just --- Just stay here! I’m going to freshen up!” She yelled and ran into her room.In her room, Zoe hit her head with her palm over and over, only stopping when she caught sight of her red forehead in her dressing mirror.She winced.Nathaniel’s bright eyes flooded her mind, his teasing smirk as if there to show her that she could really not keep to her promise.SLAM!Zoe rushed into the bathroom and slammed the door behind her, ignoring the loud sound the slam made.Her feet crossed the short distance to the washbasin, turning the faucet open.Her palms curved underneath the faucet, bringing water up to her face.She splashed cold water on her face.Her eyes widened in shock.“Ow! That’s really cold. What was I thinking?”‘About how hot Natha

Heavy silence settled in the living room. Eclipse's jaw shifted, her teeth clenching for a moment, some visible internal argument playing out behind her eyes.Her shoulders finally dropped, the fight draining slowly out of her posture."You're right, Mr. Quest" she said finally, the words coming out stiff, clearly costing her something. "I'm sorry. I've spent the last week fielding calls from every brand that ever touched Zoe's name, watching people who claimed to respect her drop her the instant it became inconvenient” She shook her head, a tired sigh leaving her lips.Zoe clenched her fists tightly, refusing to say a word.Eclipse look moved her.Huge dark circles stood proudly underneath her eyes, and now that the fight was out of her, the adrenaline holding her straight also seeped out quietly.Zoe felt moved to hold Eclipse and guide her to rest.But she hesitated.Eclipse had just insulted Nathaniel and allowing one of her own to insult an important ally would make it okay fo

Eclipse had not actually left.Zoe realized this only after she hung up the phone, her hands still faintly trembling, and found her assistant standing frozen, her laptop bag half slung over one shoulder, watching her with the sharpened attention of a woman who had heard enough of one side of a phone call to create a concluding statement."You told me thank you for staying loyal to you," Eclipse said before Zoe could speak, setting her bag back down on the console table with quiet finality. "I'm not here for only the good times, Zoe""Eclipse. That's enough, I appreciate your loyalty but it's not enough to drag you through this."Eclipse shook her head, placing her laptop bag on the marble counter set to separate the living room from the other living spaces.It's marble color glistened in the light, the little black dots on it twinkling in the light.Eclipse snorted in annoyance.She palmed her face for one second."You went pale, Zoe. Actually pale, the kind of pale I have never once
CONTRACTED TO MY EX-HUSBAND’S ENEMY Do not leave your house
"Not at all." Eclipse's answer came immediate and firm, no hesitation at all. " I am saying the world will punish you for reacting even when the reaction is completely justified, and I hate that""I am furious on your behalf, and I am also the person whose job it is to keep the lights on in your business while you figure out how to be a different kind of Zoe Beckett than the one Aurelle signed a contract with." She exhaled slowly, some of the fire draining out of her posture. "I'm not angry at you, Zoe. I'm angry at how fast and how cruelly all of this happened, and I don't have anywhere else to put that anger except into fixing what I can still fix."Zoe reached across the space between them and squeezed Eclipse's hand, an unfamiliar gesture between them, the two of them having spent years keeping their relationship strictly professional despite genuine mutual respect underneath it."Thank you for staying loyal through this," Zoe said quietly. "I know it would have been easier to
