PIERCE' POV.For someone who thought today was going to be a good day for me and my woman, i'm very disappointed.What did I do wrong? I mean I just greeted Sonia and we talked for a bit. We've known each other for a very long time, we are like best friends.She's has been there for me every step of the way, always encouraging and advising me. Even all those times when Stacey left and I was really down and broken, Sonia was there for me.Well, I don't expect Stacy to understand but why on earth would she think that I would cheat on her? I mean, it's not like I'm Dexter.As I walk into the private bar, memories from before I left the house floods my memory. How she begged me and tried to explain, how she was sorry about she compared me to Dexter.Lunch? she even made lunch. When she hugged me in the bedroom, it took everything in me not to respond to her. Staying away from her is best, maybe she would realise that I'm not Dexter and I would never do to her what he did.I need time an
Anastasia's POV7 hours, it's been 7 hours since Pierce left the house and I haven't heard any word from him. I've been trying to call and text but still, I'm not been able to reach himI don't know any family. I don't know any of his friends. I don't know who to call except the one person that has always been there for me, SofiaIt hurts me to say how she has done so much for me. She is always here to comfort me, to calm me down, to advise me. Pity I haven't been able to do much for her. So much for being her best friendI pick up my phone and dial her number, on the first ring she pick up. "I know it's pretty late but can you come over? I need you right now".I wait a little to listen to her reply."Sure bestie".A sigh of relief. "I'll send you the address".Sofia arrives our apartment, I mean, Pierce's apartment at midnight and I cannot begin to express how grateful I am.As she steps into the apartment, I slam the door behind her and pull her into a very tight hug. She hugs me
Pierce's POVI move to my side on the bed which I slept in 3 hours ago. Uncomfortable. Uncomfortable is the word I would use to describe this bed.Maybe because it's a bunk bed and I'm not used to sleeping in bunk beds or maybe it's the fact that i didn't wake up beside Stacey.I haven't been home since yesterday and I haven't been taking any of calls either. I just wasn't in the mood yesterday. She's been trying to call. She even sent multiple text messages to tell me how sorry she was.I replay yesterday's conversation with Sonia in my head, thoroughly thinking of every word she said. I didn't want to rely on them too much else I'd go crazy thinking of what is right and what isn't right to do.I wonder what time it is now. Taking a short walk towards the window, I pull the curtain open just to see the sun setting already. Shit! Must be evening by now.I've been away from her for too long. No wonder why my body and my heart have been yearning for her. I turn on my cell phone and it'
Pierce' POVMy legs move on their own towards Stacy. I just want to grab her and take her home right now, because if i stay here any longer, i might actually kill somebody.Maybe killing him isn't such a bad idea after all but I can't do that here. Like I've said before, I'll take care of everything later.As I reach her presence, she holds out her her hands to me. "I can explain. Please let me explain".I didn't let her utter another word before lifting off from the ground onto my shoulders. I make my way to the other section of the VIP where I came from."There she is". I gently grab Sofia' arm and pull her to myself heading towards the entrance of the bar.We reach Sophia's apartment in no time and i help Sofia up to her room while I take Stacey to the other room we stayed in, the last time we were here.As we enter into the room, I take off my shirt and pant, heading to the bathroom for a cold shower. I need something to calm myself down.Right now what annoys me the most is tha
Anastacis' POV.Finally it's Monday morning time to prepare for work, although we left Sofia's house very early to give her privacy, we still had a little time to sleep.When I finally wake up at 7 a.m, I discover that Pierce isn't in bed with me. Where did he go so early in the morning? The bathroom? I stretch my neck towards the bathroom door as if looking right through it"Pierce, babe, where are you"? I call out to him but no response.Something begins to creep into my heart . I push the odd feeling away. Getting up from bed, i walk towards the bathroom and push the door open only to find it empty and dry.The creeping becomes more intense as I pick up my phone to check if i have any missed calls or messages from him.I decide to call his phone and just when I dial the number, my eyes find the phone on the cupboard sitting right beside the bed.Where the hell did he go without this phone?Okay, Anastasia, calm down. I can't begin to make assumptions when I haven't confirmed an
Anastacia' POVRadisson corp from the outside, gives the impression of an imposing and impressive entity. The building itself is a towering skyscraper adorned with the company's initial 'R'.As we approach the entrance, i see encounter some security personnel and other staffs who have access to the building. The entrance itself is grand and impressive, with polished floors, high ceilings, and large display screens featuring the company's branding and advertising.As we approach the receptionist, a familiar look lingers on her face as if trying to recall whether or not she had met me before. "Good morning Ma'am, good morning Sir". She greets. Rising from her seat. "How may I help you".?"Good morning Miss Robert". I reply using her second name.Miss Roberts started working here shortly after the death of my parents. So, it's fair to say that we are a little bit familiar with each other.She becomes confused. "I'm sorry but have we met before".?"It's me Anastasia, Anastasia Greene. Dex
Anastacia' POV.I sit at the head of the table in the boardroom with the other directors staring at me intensely, as if expecting an explanation for what they just witnessed in my office earlier.Damn! How was I not expecting a couple elderly director to show up in my office after the sudden change i made this morning.They are sitting opposite each other on either side of the long table, papers and files sitting in front of each person with microphone to their faces.What the hell is going on? All these changes without my permission. Everyone here is new, except for two people whom i have known since my childhood; Mr and Mrs Detroit.I've known them ever since i was little, although not personally, they were on and off friends with my parents and also a huge part of this company.Everyone else on this table is staring at me with uncertainty in your eyes, a look of distrust being the most visible, but Mr Detroit and his wife have nothing but love in their eyes, or am I wrong.Mrs Detr
Pierce' POVMy eyes snap open and the blur gradually clears away. I take in my surroundings and it is a bit strange. Where am I?I try to raise my head but a quick wave of dizziness hits me and sends me back on the surface where I lay.Someone places a palm on my forehead. "Relax. Just stay down".I look up to see Stacy with a worried look on her face.A little game won't hurt, right? "Where am I"? I ask, making my confusion very evident.A frown appears on her face. "What do you mean by 'Where am i'?. We are in my office at Radisson"."I'm confused. Where is Radisson corporation".?"Oh no". She whispers. "You must have hit your head. Do you remember me? Do you know who I am".?Gosh, so cute. How can I ever forget her? Still playing along to my script, I hit my head with my palm as if trying to remember certain information. "I can't I.....don't"Tears fill her eyes. "Okay babe, what is the last thing you remember? Do you remember coming to the office with me this morning, or do you
