Craving For Her Agent Pierce
Louis' POVI finished signing the last bit of paperwork I had left. I checked the watch to see that the clock had just struck seven. It was time to retire for the day. Today was different from the hollowness I had grown accustomed to. Today was interesting. It had not gone the way I had wanted it to go. I pulled open my table drawer and pulled out her file. I opened it and scanned its contents. The résumé was impressive. I had always caught myself wondering where she disappeared to that night she had come to my doorstep. She had always been the type to never give up but not even that could make me forget what her mother had done. In crutches and drenched from the rain, I had slammed the door in her face. On the tenth anniversary of my father's disappearance, my mum had a breakdown after seeing her again. I saw her too, in a car. I found out she had a good job and dared to be living well. She was the object of my anger after that. At least I had something to take my mind off of my Jen
Craving For Her Victor
I waited for the bell. His bell. The bell he had been using to summon me to his office. The general consensus was probably that office/desk jobs were relatively boringSince you hardly ever get off your seat but Louis and his bell begged so much to differ. Throughout the day, I had not had a moment's rest. Every second the cringing scream of the bell would slash through the air and raise me from from or from whatever I had been preoccupied with beforeAt some point, I had waited about six times contemporaneously. He had raised his head deliberately slow to look at me and quirked a dark brow in question. I thought better of explaining myself to him and left instead. He wanted me to regret getting hired, that much I knew. But even this had too damn petty for a grown man. But the ringing had ceased miraculously after a particular visitor had arrived and entered his office. I had only caught a glimpse of him as he had entered Louis' office. I didn't know yet what it was but something ab
Craving For Her Bruises from another life
Louis' POVI stepped into my office again after accompanying Victor. I stalked to my desk. My pulse raced beneath my skin as I held back every urge to walk into her office and do something that I might regret. I sat in my chair and sagged against it. The past few months have been a rollercoaster. After my discovery about the company that could ruin everything I had ever worked for. I got more information from the man with ears everywhere, the viper. He led me to Victor. Victor had been an unlikely ally during my time of need in the past and again he had proven useful. He had helped me bubble more things up to the surface. And now I knew that no one else was to blame other than Agatha Carter. Now, Zoe's motives were clear. I often found myself wondering why the hell she would have come to my company for a job after everything. I wanted so badly to believe that I had killed so much of her spirit. That I had broken her down well enough but deep down, I was not that delusional. Zoe was p
Craving For Her Secrets and Suspicion
Zoe's POV The next day was usually but I could sense more tension than before. It was though he was radiating heat, his eyes seemed darker and irritation pitched his tone. He could not have had a worse night than I did, I mused to myself. I placed some documents which he had asked for on his desk and pivoted on my heel and stalked towards the exit. "Miss Pierce," I turn back to face him. "Yes?" Silence reigned in the office and despite its expanse, it felt cramped. When he did speak, his tone was not void with apparent hostility. In contrast, it seemed to lace every word. "Why are you really doing this?" he asked but it sounded as though he already had a good idea why. Bile rose in my throat at the thought. had I in some way blown my cover? I ran a quick comb in my mind over my actions since the mission had started, trying to pick out the moment that I made some horrendous mistake. On the other hand, on the surface, I kept my expression carefully neutral. "Doing what, sir?" I ask
Craving For Her A Break-in
Zoe's POVThe day ended with the office's tension unsatiated. We could not look each other in the face. I left the office long after he did. I entered my car, feeling severely mentally drained. The radio was not an option, I had a headache that would only get worse. I had talked to my family for a while and I felt the guilt like a pang in my stomach. They would be so worried about me. I had to concentrate, knowing that once my mission was accomplished, we would have all the time in the world to bond. Of course until I would be dispatched for another mission. The road was fairly busy and the sun had completely bowed out. The night was brightened by the orange car lights. I arrived home about twenty minutes after I left the office. I switched off the engine and sighed deeply, I still had a report to make before I could finally snuffle up in bed. I froze. My heart rate quickened, my former exhaustion had vanished and given way to alertness. I opened my glove compartment and retrieved
Craving For Her Amnesia
Zoe's POVEverything after that was a blur. I called an ambulance and I rode at the back with the paramedics and called the authorities. The echoes of the sirens still rang in my mind. I held my head in my hands, my headache was doing way more that just ebbing now. Which only inhibited me futher from thinking. I fighting sleep, my head was heavy and my neck was about to snap. I knew if I had soon much needed sleep, when I woke I could be able to sort out the chaos of the last few hours. It just to to make sense of everything, my exhausted body was effectlively shutting down."I am looking for Regina," her last words kept replaying in my mind. It could not be a coincidence, her voice, her eyes and even the name of her daughter. It all fit right into my mother's profile. Had she just been lying about her name? Where the hell did she get the name from. Who was Catherine D'Amato? Even if she was my mother, how come she had not recognised me? Had so much time passed? At the thought, a pai
Craving For Her Invitation
Zoe's POV I thought of not picking up the car and was about to slip it into my pocket but I thought better of it. I would not give him the satisfaction of punishing me just because I broke one of his stupid rules "Hello, sir," I answered in a monotone , knowing that it would irritate him. "Miss Pierce, we need to have an urgent discussion," He said at the other end"Alright sir, can we have it on the phone?" I asked, mustering all the politeness I could muster. "Tomorrow at the office, please." "No," His voice was resolute, giving no space for compromise. "Where can we meet?" I asked."I am coming to pick you up." There was a tense silence as I said nothing for a moment."I am not home," I drew out slowly. "Where are you then?" Failing to hide the irritation in his tone."Out." I replied simply, giving no room for further inquiry."Where can we meet?" He asked. I glanced through the little window on the door to the woman's room to see her still being questioned. Whatever he w
Craving For Her Cathy
Zoe's POVBy the time I return, the police officers are on their way out. "Miss," the older man tipped his hat. "We'll be on our way. We are going to question her further tomorrow." "We will be sending some guards to ensure you both are kept safe, just in case her kidnappers come looking for her. They will be on night watch just outside." I nodded and muttered a thank you before they finally left.I made my way back to her room to find her still looking out into space. I half-expected that she would be asleep, she looked as exhausted as I felt. After a bath and medication, a bit of colour had returned to her skin but it did nothing to reduce the effect of the probable last ten years has done to her. She still looked like an estranged sister of a zombie."Mu…" The word comes out to my utter bewilderment before I shove it back in. How tired am I? I face-palm myself which does not help my case because it only aggravated the pounding in my head. I took a deep breath before I spoke ag
