NOAH’S POV

Ethereal.

That was the only word I could use to describe her presence. She walked down the stairs with grace, her hand gripping the railing so tightly that for a second, I wished that I were the railing. I could see the angry lines on her face. This wasn’t how she wanted to treat me after I ghosted her for days.

But this was Sasha—too kind for her good and very forgiving. This was the part I had to protect—keep away from predators that would try to harm her. I had failed before, and I sat quietly and watched as she married the worst thing that had ever existed.

“Where are we going tonight?” she asked, her soft velvety voice reverberating through me. Even when they lacked her usual warmth, a dark part of me enjoyed this anger in her voice. She felt something too.

“Just dinner with a few business associates… nothing fancy, we should be back before you know it,” I said.

Her shoulders sagged, disappointment flashing through her eyes like lightning. The look sliced through my ch

    AUTHOR’S POVThe house was too quiet for the turmoil that was in Anastasia’s mind. Roland was on some fantasy game, chasing after Sasha. And her? She was sweating bullets, wondering how she would get such an amount without drawing too much attention.That and the fact that Roman and Maya had decided to move into the Conrad estate just a few days before her engagement party which was nearing. Each day felt like a trying time, the constant realisation that Petal Conrad was somewhere and would soon wake up to reveal the truth.“Tell me you have something good to say,” she hissed into the phone.“I am sorry, there is still nowhere to get into her room. I think…”She ended the call, for some reason, Petal’s room has not been accessible to anyone other than the personalised staff. Even Eleanor hadn’t tried to step into the room, it was like they had all agreed not to check in on the matriarch.She hadn’t made it far into the garden when Roman grabbed her hand, dragging her into the dark par

    NOAH’S POVPetal might be on the hospital bed, but I couldn’t ignore the viciousness in her eyes. I could see the wheels turning as she tried to understand what game I was playing before her.“Arthur…” she called out, refusing to acknowledge me.I held back the smile that threatened to form on my lips. She could act all she wanted, but I will be the one she has to talk to at the end of the day. There is no avoiding that.“I believe you both should have this conversation without me,” Arthur said, walking out of the room.For a second, a brief look of panic flashed through her eyes, she was eyeing the phone in the corner, “Relax, if I wanted you dead, you would have been dead,” I replied in a bored tone, settling into the chair that Arthur had just evacuated.A moment of silence stretched between us. She weighed me, trying to understand the twisted game she had just entered.And me? I was bored.“The craziest thing you ever did was trying to turn the industry against me,” I muttered, le

  • Divorced By My Ex, Accepted By His Step-Brother    It is time to end this

    AUTHOR’S POVPetal’s eyes stared at the ceiling, the movement of the fan did nothing to hypnotise her mind from the emptiness in them. The pristine white walls and the generous smell of disinfectants burned through her senses, reminding her of the mystery she still hasn’t figured out yet.She had been stuck in this room for a little over a week and there had been no visitation from the people she called family. “Scavengers,” she hissed.“Good morning, Mrs Conrad, how are we feeling today?” the nurse asked, smiling softly at her.Petal grunted, her eyes barely straying away from the garden view. “When do I get out of here. Because when I do, I will make sure that this is the last place you ever work in,” she growled.The nurse stood unwavering, smiling at the woman. “That is good to hear petal. I would love to see you leave,”Petal scowled at the woman who didn’t want to quiver. When people act like this, it means that they have a force behind them. The fear of the unknown tugged at he

    SASHA’S POVTHE NEXT DAYHe was punishing me. I could feel it deep down in my soul.His touch wasn’t warm; it felt like ice on my skin, leaving frostbite in its trail. The most I saw of a reaction from him was when he was between my thighs.“Noah?” I called out, knocking on his door.Silence.The house has become haunted by the ghost of sorrows past. How do you have someone so close and yet they are so far away? Noah raised his head, his cold eyes staring at me with nothing in them. My steps faltered; my heart lodged in my throat.“I was thinking we could do something fun today,” I said, crossing my fingers behind my back, praying that he wouldn’t think I was being clingy and look at me wrong.“I just fucked you, Sasha,” he bit out.I winced, the words cutting through my chest, smearing pain through my veins. “Noah!” I blanched, my feet barely holding me up.He smirked, a cold look forming on his face, “Wife, I am just teasing,”The word wife felt poisoned, twisted in thorns. That hur

    ROLAND’S POVIt was a dirty thing to do. But this felt like the right way to go about it. I watched as she writhed under me, her eyes dazed as her hands roamed my skin.“Noah,” she moaned, her head thrown back. She looked like a goddess, Aphrodite to be exact.I tried to fight it, the image of Roland's lips on hers. But when I had raced down to Nina’s apartment to meet Sasha, I found Roland, his hands on her face.She didn’t move. She leaned into his touch.I growled, my hips hammering harder into her. I was livid. She was dangerous, the way I let her play with my soul. That was dangerous.But yet, the minute her hand touched my skin, the way her lips wrapped around the vowels of my name. I lost it, hated myself for being weak. For kissing her.“Sasha,” I grunted, feeling my orgasm nearing.Her hands were on my black, her nails digging into my skin, tracing lines of pleasure on my back. She did it so well and so good that I became hooked on it. But I was all a game, some twisted thing

    SASHA’S POV“What?”My voice sounded weaker than I wanted it to. My brows creased, wondering what game he was trying to play.I chuckled, “Okay, I get the joke. Can you leave now?” I hissed. Nina’s home was a hideout, yet he found a way to find me. Roland, I am sure that whatever it is that you drank will wear off in the next few hours. Now leave!”He wasn’t budging; rather, he stared at me with that twisted smile of his, looking at me like he had information that I didn’t know. “Why do you keep on fighting us, just to circle back to me each time?” he asked, taking a step closer to where I stood.I took a step back in reflex, “Roland, you are the one who came to seek me out. There is no boomerang or circling back to you,” My patience was already running thin. And the crazy part? He didn’t look like he was done with the bull crap that he had in his mind.I looked up to the ceiling, wondering what I had done to be blessed with such a great day. Note the sarcasm.“I know that we had our
