Serena

The sun splitting through the blinds makes me groan as it shines right in my eyes. My head hurts. Why did I drink so much last night? If I didn’t, I wouldn’t be hungover, and I would have gotten laid. I can’t believe Conall rejected my advances. I respect it, I really do, because not all men would have acted the same. However, I was not drunk enough that I didn’t have my wits about me. I was so horny. I haven’t forgotten his promise, though. I will be getting what I need today, well, once I come too, clean up and get some food and coffee in me, then Conall can be in me.

Slowly, I sit up. If I move too quickly, it won’t end well. I glance over, but the space is empty. Conall must be up already. I search for my cell to see what time it is. I find it next to me in the bedside unit. I am surprised when I see the time. It is ten-thirty. I never sleep until this time, even if I have been drinking the night before. The latest I get up is nine. I must have needed it. I take my time to

  • Dear Ex-Husband, Your Enemy Wants Me    Chapter Twenty-One

    SerenaConall is sound asleep next to me. We had dinner, sex and now he has crashed out. I can't sleep, thought. My thoughts are in overdrive—thoughts I don't want to be thinking. Sighing, I rest my hand on my stomach and close my eyes, my mind drifting back to the horrible day.~~~~~~They rushed me into the hospital, everything blurred, and my body ached. All I see are figures as they passed by. I opened my mouth, but no one can seem to hear me."My baby." I whimpered as I clutched my stomach. Why is no one listening?My face is soaked with tears and blood as I clutched my stomach."My baby," I repeated, but still nothing!Even if they could hear me, it didn't matter. My baby is gone. I can feel it in my heart and my body. It doesn't matter what happened to me now because the little one is gone. The only thing I have left in this world is gone. What is the point?~~~~~~"Serena, what's wrong?"The sound of Conall's tired voice pulls me from my memories. Only then do I notice I am so

    ConallI am eager to finish and go to Serena’s place to see what happened today. I did offer to go with her. It was probably a good thing she said no because I had meetings outside of the office. I haven’t had the pleasure of running into Henry today, thank God. He better not have acted like an asshole towards her. Even if he votes against Serena, as long as everyone else votes for her, she will get what she wants. Yes, Henry has a lot of pull, but in situations like this, he doesn’t have as much as he would like.I finish up what I am doing, sign off for the day and head straight for the elevator, hoping to get out of the building before I run into anyone. The doors seem to take forever to close, but thankfully, they do, and I am on my way down without any interruptions. Heading to my car, I take my cell from my pocket to call Serena to make sure she still wants me to come over and if she is hungry. I climb into my car before hitting the call button.It rings only a couple of times b

  • Dear Ex-Husband, Your Enemy Wants Me    Chapter Nineteen

    SerenaArriving outside of Henry’s office building, where I will be for my meeting, my nerves take over me. Conall wanted to drive me, but I told him that I had to do this myself. My stomach is in knots. I don’t want to be nervous, but I can’t help it. I take a few deep breaths, fix my hair, and top up my gloss, strolling into the building, seeming confident. No one needs to know how freaked out I am. I have my proposal in hand. I steady my breathing as I step into the elevator. I need to be on my A-game. I can’t let Henry get inside my head. He will try.The ride up feels like the quickest of my life. I am here in nice time. Everyone should be in the conference room already. It works better this way because it gives the element of surprise. I sign in at reception, people stare and wonder why I am back here again. I wonder how many of them think I am having an affair with Henry, there will be some. I am sure Felicity will hear about it. She will have a couple of spies in the office ke

  • Dear Ex-Husband, Your Enemy Wants Me    Chapter Eighteen

    SerenaI left Conall impatiently waiting in my bedroom for me while I am in the bathroom changing. It was never part of my plan for us to become fuck buddies while we are messing with Henry, but he is good! And why shouldn’t he get something out of it, too? It is beneficial for both of us. I went so long without sex. I didn’t trust a man enough even for sex after what happened, but I don’t have that issue with him, Conall. We can have sex without complications or anyone getting hurt. I would rather be doing it with him than a stranger. I strip out of my clothes and slip into the leather Babydoll that he carefully picked out. It wouldn’t have been my first choice, but it is sexy. It has things drips, a low dip at my breasts and cut-outs at each side, showing off the curves of my hips. It is short, covering down below and no more. Standing in front of the mirror, I fluff my hair up and apply my favourite dark pink lipstick, smacking my lips together. Giving myself the once over, I nod

    ConallI am bored out of my mind. I hate shopping, and Serena has been dragging me around the stores for three hours. Three damn hours! I understand she wants the perfect outfit for tomorrow, but she has tried many power suits on that have been perfect. What do I know, though? I only have myself to blame for agreeing to come with her. I didn’t want her to go alone.I am sitting on a seat, and Serena is in the changing room, trying on more clothes. I can’t even occupy myself with my cell because the battery died. I am twiddling my thumbs, my foot impatiently tapping on the floor and sulking. I lose myself in pointless thoughts.“Why are you sulking?”The sound of Serena’s voice and laugh brings me out of my thoughts. I glance up at her and smile. She is in a perfectly fitted black power suit. A red blouse is underneath the jacket, and she has red heels on to match, too. She looks good. Sexy, classy, confident, and professional.“Damn, sweetness, you look good.” I groan. Henry is going

    SerenaI stroll into the office building, where both Conall and Henry are working today. I’ll be back here tomorrow for my meeting. Today, I am here to meet Conall. He is taking me for lunch before I drag him shopping with me. I am on the lookout for the perfect power suit and killer heels for my meeting. I will walk into the conference room with confidence, looking sexy, but classy all at the same time. I won’t show any weakness.Walking by Henry’s office to get to Conall’s, I notice Henry in his office. I don’t acknowledge him and walk right back to my destination. Conall is taking a half day for me. I appreciate it. He didn’t have to, but when I asked, he said yes without hesitation. I lift my hand, ready to knock on the door, but before I can, something stops me, or should I say someone?“Serena!” Henry’s irritated voice calls from behind me.Rolling my eyes, I turn to face him. I place my hand on my hip, raising my brow at him. “Yes?” My tone matches his irritated one.Henry come
