Her Return, His Regret 086 Is that a threat?
***~~Cameron~~***“Going after your brother's wife won't help your case Cameron,” my best friend Jayden tells me.I shoot him a look. “Ex-wife,” I hiss. “She's not bound to him anymore,”He laughs but it lacks humor. “That’s where you're mistaken, man. They're still married,”“Well, just on papers. Right now, Delilah hates him and I think that's my chance,” I say, trying to convince myself of my words.He studies me. “Do you like Delilah or you just want what Soren has?”I've liked— loved Delilah from the very moment I saw her.I met her first. I know she probably doesn't remember but I do.At that grocery store that mom owns. I had gone for supervision in her stead when I saw her.A beautiful, tall and a literal face card. She had thrifted clothes on but that didn't didn't her beauty and sculpted body.She caught my attention at first sight, when I asked the manager, he said she had been working here for over two years.I said hello but she regarded me with a nod, barely even looki
Her Return, His Regret 085 Twisted game
***~~Soren~~***Eden pulls the door open with a curt nod.I halt.“Can I have a few minutes of your time?” I ask. “It won't be long, five minutes.”“Yes, sure.”He follows me to my car because that's where I feel the safest.It's clear now that I need to be cautious especially where my family is.And about that tattoo, I need to look closely.I have a sinking feeling that it's same one.I turn to Eden as soon as we get to the car. He's the only staff I trust. “It's about my mom,” I let out, watching as his brows lifts. “I have questions, tons of them Eden, and you're the only one I can ask,”He scratches his chin. “That's over two decades ago. I— I'm older now, my memory is not as great…”I cut in, desperate. “I know. I…I need closure. I just want justice to prevail,”Something flickers through his eyes, but it's gone as quickly as it came, then he gives a slow nod.“Alfred says you were the closest to my mom. I don't remember much. But if that is true then you'd know who she went t
Her Return, His Regret 084 Guilt lives here
***~~Delilah~~***I want to sleep but I can't.I've been tossing and turning all night.Soren knows.He's bound to find out but I didn't think it'll affect me this much.Maybe it doesn't.It's just — the shock of hearing him say all that.He sounded hurt….like I've done half of what he did.What bothers me more is Liam's paternity. I don't know how he did it, but he's got his evidence on paper.I tore it but I'm more than certain he has more stashed up somewhere.He could run a million test, it changes nothing.I tell myself this but why can't I sleep?Why does his hurt face haunts me.It shouldn't.Tossing the sheets aside, I get myself out of bed, and head downstairs.My mother's room is just opposite from mine. I don't check in.I go to Liam's instead. He's fast asleep hugging his new teddy, the one Soren got him and with Ziggy by his side.I close the door back and head downstairs for a bottle of water, anything to get my mind off things.“Mom?” I call lifting my brows. “You're
Her Return, His Regret 083 Ripped off
***~~Soren~~***My thoughts has been reeling.I needed to clear my head.I still haven't figured out why Dr Frank would lie about Delilah’s treatment.He's not here to answer for himself.But that's not what has me wired up, it's how to get Lilah to let me into our son's life.I know I was a terrible husband. I was reckless — didn't treat Lilah like she deserved to be treated.And now, I have a sinking feeling she's here to hurt me back.I need to find a way to show her that I'm sorry for everything. That I can be a great father and a husband.I just want us to pick up from where we left off.My phone rings.I run a hand through my hair, exhausted.It's not my grandpa's assistant. It's Alfred himself.“Come see me at the house, Soren. Thought you might've something to say to me,” he lets out as soon as I answered.I pinch the bridge of my nose. “Ok.”****Eden nods at me with a big grin on his face. I pause. “How's your wife?”He gives me a look. “Grandpa mentioned you took a few
Her Return, His Regret 082 Stay off him
***~~Dahlia~~***Soren looks like he's about to shatter.His eyes hasn't left me.I face him with a defiant look of my own but my stomach turns.This was what I wanted — to break him, to watch him face critics. To make him feel half of what I felt.But why do I feel this strange tightness in my chest. A lump forms in my throat, I swallow it.I can feel Pa Alfred's gaze on me but I don't turn.I take a sharp breath. I won't cower. I'll make Soren pay for the pain he caused me and I won't feel bad about it.As soon as all the documents are signed, I got up and head for the door.“Dahlia…?” Someone follows me quickly behind me but my steps doesn't falter.I know it's him.I've got nothing to say to him. I haven't even done half of what I intend to do and he's already shaken?The corridor stretched ahead, polished floors, glass walls— too bright, too open. I focused on that. On walking. On keeping the rhythm of my heels steady.I quickened my step, trying to get into my office and lock h
Her Return, His Regret 081 Blind all along
***~~Soren~~***Two weeks later.I got to work and push the elevator button to the top floor. Board meeting day.I want to say I'm not worried, but that'd be a fat lie.I am, more than I'm willing to admit.The elevator pings and I step out into the boardroom. Looks like everyone is here and the room is buzzing.I see my grandfather and he gives me a curt nod.I still haven't told him about Liam, didn't want to disrupt his vacation.Now that he's back. I'll have to find time and talk to him.Then the whispers starts.Mrs Marie leans toward Frodd. “What's going on in here? It's never this energetic.”“You didn't hear?” The middle aged man with his glasses perched above his nose says and when Marie shakes her head he continues. “Apparently, some shareholders sold out to an unknown person that has now acquired quite a sum,”“What?!” The man next to her joins. “How does this even happen?”Frodd chips in. “If this continues, then L&S might not be under Lancaster ownership anymore,”I st
Her Return, His Regret 012 Breeze of chaos
***~~Dahlia~~***“De— Delilah,” the word breaks through his mouth, eyes wide.He looks terrified.The shock in his face is so loud it almost consumes the room.His eyes are on me, as if the ground has vanished beneath his feet.But I don't flinch.Let him stare.Let him wonder.I put my hand down

***~~Knox~~***I used to believe I had control over my choices.Over my impulses.Over the things I wanted.Until I met her.Beautiful, black wavy hair, a shape to die for and a face that belongs to a damn billboard.It was here, right at the center of my club.She had walked in, arm in arm with t

***~~Soren~~***I wasn't sure if I was still breathing right.My eyes are locked on the entrance.Everyone is staring, the room is quiet like it's holding its breath.Delilah is walking in, arm in arm with— Hunter.Every nerve in my body pulses.My throat is dry, the room suddenly feels so hot, l

***~~Ashley~~***“You know what's at stake, don't you?” Rebecca says, her lips pressed into a thin line.“I'm trying,”“It's not good enough!” She barked. “Soren's not agreeing to the engagement, that complicates things,”I swallow, my fingers coiled tight against the glass. “I'll get him to. I'm
