A Week Later, Boardroom

Xander and I hadn’t said much to each other lately. He knew I was working nonstop, so he gave me space. Part of me appreciated it, part of me wanted him to disturb me.

“Before we begin the earnings call,” Mr. Norris said, “I believe Mrs. Kendricks requested time to speak?”

I stood and handed each member a folder. “Inside, you’ll find analytics from our recent outreach campaign and the early performance report from the GenVest pilot program.”

Mr. Darnell raised a brow. “You pushed that through?”

“With internal approval, all within company protocol.”

Ms. Rowe flipped through the pages. “These numbers are strong.”

“Not just strong,” Mr. Darnell added. “This is the best engagement we’ve seen on a test product this quarter.”

I took a breath. “I’m not here to step over anyone’s authority. I’m here because I care about Global Holdings. And because I believe we’ve been underestimating the value of innovation and connection.”

They didn’t clap. This wasn’t that kind of

  • Double the sin   Jax

    I left the police station that day feeling more confused than ever. The police had promised to keep an eye on Kaia. But that wasn't enough, even with the guards and drivers,someone was still able to hurt her. I entered the car and drove back to.the hospital, to stay with Kaia. I stayed in the hospital for the rest of the day, I was too tired to even stay awake to keep a good eye on Kaia, I kept slipping in and out of consciousness. The next day, I was woken up from sleep by the sound of my phone ringing. I opened my eyes, without checking who was calling, I answered the call “hello,” I said sleepy. “Mr Kendricks, please we need you to come to the station right now. Something urgent needs your attention. The sleep immediately disappeared from my eyes as I stood up from the couch and ran to the door. When I got to the police station, the air in the police station was thick. The tension hung heavy, making every breath feel like swallowing gravel. I sat in the small waiting room,

  • Double the sin   Attempted Murder

    I placed my head in her palm "You have to wake up," I whispered. "Please. You have to."I didn’t sleep that night. The nurses came and went each time to check her vitals or adjust the drip. The machines beeped steadily. But I never moved from her side neither did I ever feel better. I stroked her fingers, “you have to be strong, Kaia,” I told her about the baby, about the press conference, about everythings that had happened within the last few months. "I love you, Kaia. I’ve loved you for a long time, I know I messed up. I know I made things worse when I thought I was protecting you. But I need you. I need you to come back."She didn’t respond, her eyelids didn’t flutter, fuck, her hand even didn’t move.But I stayed anyway, because I had no one else to blame but myself. And I knew she'd do the same if she were in my shoes, because Kaia is, she always puts others first. The nurse came in again. “Mr. Kendricks, it’s time you took a break, please. You’ve been here since yesterday,

  • Double the sin   Car Accident

    I didn't pay much attention to what Tom said about Jax. The next day, I left the office earlier than usual for my prenatal appointment. I didn't go with a driver since the hospital was close to the office. The checkup went fine, normal heartbeat, normal measurements. The doctor told me everything was progressing well and that the baby was healthy. While coming out of the hospital I suddenly remembered Tom, and I suddenly felt very uneasy. I blamed it on yesterday.Seeing Tom again, hearing Jax’s name. Being reminded of that twisted obsession I thought I’d left behind.After the appointment, I decided to head straight home. I wanted to lie down, just rest. As I headed out, a nurse called out “Mrs Kendricks,” I turned around. “Would you like me to call you a driver?” I smiled at her. “No, Katherine, I'm good.”“Have a safe trip back home ma'am” she said and turned back towards the hospital's entrance. I needed the air, it somehow felt very comforting and cool. My thoughts had been

  • Double the sin   Jax's obsession

    Throughout that day, Xander never left my side, he was always moaning sure I was feeling okay. The office was quieter than usual this morning. Everyone seemed focused, with their heads buried in their screens or walking briskly between departments. I had just returned from a board strategy session and was about to collapse into my chair when my assistant knocked and peeked through the door.“You have a visitor,” she said.I frowned. “Who?”“He didn’t give his name, but he said it’s urgent… and personal.”I rubbed my temples. I wasn’t in the mood for vague surprises. “Where is he?”“In the downstairs lobby. I can ask security to escort him out if you want—”“No,” I said, standing. “It’s fine, I’ll handle it.”I took the elevator down, expecting a client maybe, or one of the journalists who hadn’t gotten enough gossip last month. But the moment the elevator doors slid open, I was greeted with the familiar sight of Tom.He stood off to the side of the marble lobby floor, wearing jeans a

  • Double the sin   I'm going to be a father

    When I got home, I didn't find Xander at home.Then a text popped up on my screen “Hey love, I went to the office, I'll be back soon.” I made a U turn and went outside, back to the car.“Take me to the office.” I told the driver. “Are you okay Ma'am?” The driver asked while turning on the car. “Yes I am, just a little bit tired.” I said placing my head on the window of the car. XANDER'S POV I was going through spread sheets in my office when I heard Kaia’s voice outside. She was talking to someone outside the door, I smiled and continued going through the spread sheets She walked into my office with a smile on her face, and god, that smile was my weakness. “Hey,” I said, setting my pen down. “You okay?”She didn’t answer right away, her fingers toyed with the hem of her blouse, and she avoided my eyes as she closed the door behind her.That was weird, what's going on? I sat up straighter. “Kaia?”She looked at me and gave me a small smile, “I went to the hospital,” she said.M

  • Double the sin   You're pregnant

    I was lost in the sensation, in the way he filled me, in the way his hands held me steady as he took what he wanted. His mouth found my neck, his teeth grazing my skin as he whispered words that made me shiver with need. “You like this, don’t you?” he growled. “Being used like this. Being mine.”“Yes,” I gasped, my voice barely audible. “Yours.”The fear of being discovered only added to the intensity, each thrust more urgent, each touch more desperate. I could feel the tension building inside me, a coil tightening, ready to snap. “Xander,” I whimpered, my voice breaking. “I’m close.”“Me too,” he groaned, his pace quickening. “Cum for me, Kaia. Let go.”His words were all I needed. My body shook as I climaxed, my walls clenching around his cock, milking him, drawing out his own release. He followed moments later, his thrusts becoming faster, his grip on my hips bruising as he cummed inside me. For a moment, we stayed like that, his dick still buried in my ass hole.We were both brea
