Eve's Temptation: Bound By His Obsession 067: Reconciliation
-EVE-The restaurant was quieter now. Most of the dinner crowd had left, leaving behind soft music and half-empty wine glasses.Alex sat across from me, fingers wrapped tightly around his glass like he needed something solid to hold onto.Our conversation had drifted from everything to forbidden territory. Vanessa. He told me how they'd met during his internship almost ten years ago. How they dated in secret till things got toxic. Till it got of control.“That day, while she destroyed the dishes at my apartment, I realized….I couldn't save her if she didn't want to be saved. So I called it off. For the first time in the seven years we were dating, I told her that was it.”He took a sip of the wine.“I left to clear my head. I asked her to leave by the time I got back. She did. And for a moment, I felt free. Relief. But it was just the beginning of the end. She called me, I've lost count how many times. When I finally answered, her voice was slurry. She mentioned a club and said bad
Eve's Temptation: Bound By His Obsession 066: The New Director
-ALEX-Monday.I was halfway through a presentation with the executives, with Jonathan Kingston glaring at me like we had until settled business when Richard Kingston walked in.Everyone, except Jonathan stood, I paused. “Sit, sit.” He waved a hand, but nobody sat until he did. He took the head of the table, clasping his hands in front of him.“I'm here to make a quick announcement, then you can carry on with your meeting. “ Then he went on to thank my department’s effort in beating Accounting for the first time in three years.“You've always exceeded my expectations, Alex.”The rest of the room didn't look too happy.“Thank you sir.”“Well, on the announcement. I have decided to create a new department to ensure the smooth running of the marketing department. Strategic Branding. The new director starts today. She'll work closely with Marketing, so I expect seamless cooperation.”A new department, a new director. The words didn't get the chance to settle before the doors swung open.
Eve's Temptation: Bound By His Obsession 065: An Evening of Awkwardness
EVE“Three cheers for the Marketing team!” Ana yelled.“Hip, hip, hurray!”“Hip, hip, hurray!”“Hip, hip, hurrayyy!”The noise bounced off the two tables we had pushed together. It had the same energy as the hours after a college game, only this time the air smelled like perfume instead of spilled beer.Alex sat next to me, and our hands were pressed together under the table where no one could see them. Ana sat across from us, with Dominic and Vanessa beside her.Vanessa should not have been here. Alex had told me the truth about them. They were exes. They had ended things amicably. They were friends now. But I did not like the way she looked at him, or laughed at him, or touched his hand. Even now, I did not like the way she slurped her drink in his direction.Dominic sat directly across from me, but he was hardly present. His gaze kept drifting to his phone and then back to the table.I was grateful for what he had done today. He had let the Accounting team taste their stolen victo
Eve's Temptation: Bound By His Obsession 064: Boating Regatta
-Dominic-“Dominic. Explain to me why the hell Grace Langley just called off your engagement?! Call me!” The voicemail sang.I wasn’t going to call. At least not now.I let out a small sigh, tucking my phone back into my pocket. It was finally Saturday afternoon, and the Kings Corp Annual Boating Regatta had transformed the docks into something between a corporate retreat and a county fair.Mini tents flapped in the breeze. Donation boxes for the company's designated charities sat at every intersection, painted in bright colors that didn't match.“You look unimpressed,” Seb said, coming from behind me.“It’s quite colorful.” I admitted.“I looked into the Accounting team’s designated charites,” Seb began. “Two of the three charities are linked shell companies. Those two charites have received the hightest donations in the last three years. I also have names.” He said handing me a tablet.“Most of these names were involved in my father’s hotel acquistion.” My brows furrowed trying to p
Eve's Temptation: Bound By His Obsession 063: Blood and Stranger
-Eve-I got a DM from my post. The one about Rachael.The text came in at 7:14am, but I didn’t see it until now—noon—while trying to drain water out of my ear after humilating myself in front of everyone because of Alex…and Vanessa.“Hi Eve Keller, I’m writing on behalf of Rachael. She saw your post. She’s the one in the photo. She’ll be in NYC from Boston today, Friday. She’d like to meet if you’re free.”Friday. Today.My heart slammed hard against my chest. Water finally flowed out my ears.Yes. I typed. Yes, I’m free. Please tell her.The bubbles appeared immediately. Thank goodness she was online.“She’s here until tonight. Here’s her number.”I copied the digits before my brain could catch up. My thumb hovered. I almost called Sal first. I couldn’t. We hadn’t made up.I was on my own this time to figure what out what to wear, what to say, how to breathe.I thought of what to do. If I delayed any further, I’d have to wait till whenever she was in New York again.I pressed call.O
Eve's Temptation: Bound By His Obsession 062: Training Season II
-Dominic-Vanessa and I never cared for these things, but with Alex and Eve involved, she wanted to be there—so much so that she dragged me out of bed yesterday and made me come all the way out here.Today, I was assigned to coach the team leads, which meant proximity to Eve and her blistered hands and her determined refusal to look at me for more than three seconds.I let her avoid me. It was more interesting to watch her try.On Friday afternoon, while I wandered around the marina, I found the accounting team captain and another member behind the equipment shed. There was something off about them. Their voices hummed low, head bent over a phone. I didn't announce myself, I simply stood in the shadow of the building and listened.“Yes sir, we're doing our best out here. Although the marketing team is quite competitive, they're no match for us,” the captain was saying.“Good stuff. Just make sure to do your parts and leave the rest to me,”I knew that voice anywhere. It was Mr Rogers

Eve-“Sal, again I don’t think I should do this,” I said, pulling the seat belt across my chest.“Relax,” her grip tightened on the steering wheel. “Tonight we club, and forget about, Mr. I kissed you or I want to kiss you but it’s complicated.”“It’s Wednesday, Sal,” I reminded her.“And tomorrow

-Eve-“Miss Turner, your vitals are good. There are no signs of internal injuries. It’s a miracle you came out unhurt,” the middle-aged doctor explained.Sal had to leave for work early, and I’d spent the whole day in bed, every muscle aching like I’d actually been run over. I felt useless, like a t

-Dominic-“Your caddie?” The words left my sharper than I intended.Their heads turned, I blinked, and Grace blinked. Siena smiled smugly.Caddie? How did she?“Funny story, she’s actually a model, she was doing a shoot at the clubhouse and I jokingly asked her to be my caddie.” He gestured for her

-Eve-Sally crossed the line.That was all I could think as I stormed through the reception area.“Eve!” I heard her yell through the tinging pulse in my ears. But I couldn’t care less.I caught my reflection in the glass window of a random store, red eyes, trembling lips. I barely recognized mysel
