My mind was in a jumbled mess when the car stopped in front of my mansion.

Thoughts of Chloe overtook my thoughts. The same went with my new found realization.

That maybe, just maybe, all these strange feelings could mean I'd fallen for her.

Thinking about that made me run a hand through my hair, because damn, this shouldn't be happening.

A guard sauntered over, opening the passenger's seat.

Just as I got out, Nora rushed over, a wide grin plastered on her lips.

What the heck was she doing here?

“Dale!” It was obvious she wanted to throw her arms around me, but didn't. “I've been waiting out here for you.”

“Why? Did I ask you to?”

Her lips parted, but no words came. Then a sigh escaped, before her smile widened. “I heard you went to the party to try get a deal with Mr Augen, how did that go?”

“Is that why you're here?” My expression was plain, emotionless which contradicted her seemingly cherry own.

“Yes.” She came closer, smiling from ear to ear. “I mean, isn't that what literally a

    ~ Emery ~I stomped out of the house as my eyes filled, not wanting to burst into tears in front of Donald or Chloe.Because the outburst and all I'd said reminded me of the pain and hurt my situation was.My feet wandered to wherever it felt, a drop of tear rolling down my cheek.This all was sad. Thinking about the fact I had to shout at Donald when he did nothing wrong only worsened my mood.That would be a first, and I really hoped it never happened again. I would have to make up for it all.But first, I knew I needed to think everything through.If it wasn't for the fact this was still morning, I'd have stopped by a bar and drunk myself to stupor.Anything to clear off my thoughts.Suddenly, a car stopped beside me, involuntarily halting my movement. The sun shone in my eyes as I turned, so I had to use a hand to shield its rays, watching as the car window rolled to reveal Sam.“Oh, I thought I saw you.” His eyes squinted as he observed me. “Are you— crying?”Was I?I touched m

    The moment I stepped in and saw Emery's frown, I knew whatever discussion we were going to have would likely be the most serious one we'd ever had.Which was why I didn't bother trying to lighten the mood with anything unnecessary.Instead, shut the door and headed to have a seat on the couch.“Dale.” That was the first thing she said. “What the fuck are you doing in his place? Of all places to be, you had to be in his place?” I wasn't even sure where to start. How to even begin explaining anything. Of course I couldn't say I was having sex with him or all that.But I didn't want to lie either, so I went with, “It's complicated.”“What on earth is complicated? You better explain something to me because at the moment I'm not in a good mood so please, don't further irritate me.” This was actually the first time I'd see her this mad.My brows furrowed slightly. “Alright then, I was at Dale's place because I wanted to be there. I don't see why it's any of your business enough to have you

    I woke up the next morning with not a bit of regret on all that happened.Dale was still asleep when I woke up, giving me room to stare at the beauty he beheld. Something I'd always loved and was certain I still loved even till now.He was very handsome, undeniably. My eyes travelled his face, the perfection of his eyes, nose that was likely created for him and him alone.Lips that defined beauty, reminding me of how damn sweet it had tasted.In fact, I found myself wanting to taste it once again.And then I thought, what was the wrong in doing that? I mean, he was the same person digging himself into me all last night while I chanted his name like it was my favorite thing to say.A smile crept up my lips remembering the scene. It ‘had’ been my favorite thing last night.I couldn't imagine myself being anywhere else. Seriously.“You seem to admire me so much, don't you.” He spoke, eyes slowly opening.I didn't care that he caught me unashamedly staring at him.Instead, rose to my fee

    Dale kissed back instantly, arm wrapping around me in a firm grip.I was grateful for that because at the moment, my legs wobbled slightly and his arm helped steady me in place.When his tongue parted my lips, slipping over, goosebumps jumped my entire body, desires coursing through me.The kiss deepened as he took to sucking the breath off me, my head tilting backward with as much pleasure shaking in me at that moment.Then he pulled back slightly, allowing us both to breath, though our faces stayed close to each other.“This isn't the right place to be.” He spoke in a low growl, like he felt exactly how I felt.“Let's go there then.” I whispered afterwards.“Are you sure?” He asked lowly, breath hitting me in a way that made him look so damn hot. “I'm asking because the moment this all starts, I don't think I will be able to bear it's end.”My hand moved to his cheek, wrapping into his hair so I pulled him for another kiss. “And what if I don't want it to end either?”Like that was

    “Because I love you.” Dale's words were followed by silence. Full, complete silence.We both paused, staring straight at each other.People passed by, cars zoomed off, the doormen greeted customers getting in.But we both stayed unmoving, no words said, no sound made.It took a moment before I got myself a little, but the shock hit harder than ever.“Do you know what you're saying?” I asked, my voice barely above a whisper.He sighed, shoulders seeming a little tense. “I-I didn't mean to say it this way, but yes. I've loved you for a long time, although I've refused to admit it, not only to you, but to myself.”My heart skipped a beat by those words, breath hanging somewhere up in the air.This was all coming to me as a complete shock.“The day of the event, when I saw you after so long, something stirred up in me. Seeing you again,” he seemed to hesitate slightly, “it brought something in me. And-And I realized I might've missed you. More than I thought I did.”“I—” was at a loss of

    ~ Chloe ~When Emery came back, she briefly explained what she and Sam had agreed to, then left to her room, which meant I was the one to put Donald to bed that night.“Why is Mimi angry?” He asked, his voice tiny and sleepy once he laid on the bed.“She's not angry, hon.” I gently ran my hand through his hair. “She's just very tired.”He nodded, his small eyes drooping. “The man that came… Is he really my daddy?”The question surprised me. I hadn't expected Donald to understand anything that was going on. “Go to sleep hon.” That was all I could say as offering an answer just didn't feel right at the moment.His lips spread to a cute smile before closing his eyes and going to sleep.After a soft sigh, I headed to my room, took a shower then changed into my nightgown before heading to bed.~When I woke up the next morning, my initial plan was to not head to work.At the moment, Emery needed me, so she'd let out whatever was disturbing her.I reached for my phone, sending a message to
