Tristan

I wasn’t a stalker.

Let’s just get that straight.

I mean, yeah, I might've left the house about an hour before the time Allen said he'd come pick her up. And sure, I may have parked a few blocks away to wait like some creep in a blacked-out car.

But that doesn’t make me a stalker. Right?

This was... Just preventative for the fact that I was simply making sure the bastard didn’t get the chance to fill her head with whatever twisted fairy tales he’s been cooking up.

Definitely not because he looks at her like she’s some kind of dessert tray, every time, like he’s already chosen which part to sink his teeth into first.

Nope. Not because of that.

But I have to say the wait was miserable as several cars passed me by without any being his, but then I saw his car. The silver one, and the only one he actually has here, after all he possibly can't have his cars on the plane he took here.

He might look like it, even act like it, but he's the type who wants a quiet life, that is media o

  • His Reluctant Bride: Contracted To My Enemy    Delusions

    TristanI almost said something I wouldn’t have been able to take back. Honestly, I couldn’t be more grateful for the waitress’s interruption.After dropping Liora off at her apartment, I drove straight back to the office because, like she said, I actually had a few things left unattended. Dante’s been handling most of it, but it’s only a matter of time before the workload piles up again, and it’ll be too much for him alone. Especially now, with the sales from the current project soaring higher than expected.I parked in the company garage, and headed straight to my office.But to my surprise when I got to my office, Dante had already handled most of the major work, even the new ones that came in this morning. It was a kind of relief, really. He was efficient when he wanted to be.I was reading through the few files on the table when someone came knocking at the door. “Come in,” I said, not looking up from the file in front of me.Dante entered the office, straightening a little like

    Liora“What have you been meaning to tell me?” I asked with a faint smile tugging at my lips to hide my curiosity.“Umm…” He paused, his gaze shifting for a moment as if searching for an escape route. “Nothing… it’s nothing. Let’s just eat.”I narrowed my eyes slightly, tilting my head. He was avoiding eye contact, busying himself with the cutlery like it suddenly required all his attention. For someone who claimed to have nothing to say, he looked way too uncomfortable.He definitely had something to say.But if he wasn’t going to talk, I wasn’t going to pry as well for the fact that I’d had enough of chasing unspoken words.So I sighed softly, picked up my fork, and turned my attention to the steaming food in front of me instead.The rest of lunch went by quietly. We didn’t talk much, only when it felt necessary. Still, it wasn’t uncomfortable silence… just one of those quiet moments where words didn’t really seem needed.By the time we were done, he paid the bill and we headed bac

    LioraI blinked, still half processing what he’d just said. A date? With him? “Wait, what?” I managed, but he was already circling around to my side of the car.He opened my door like some kind of gentleman from an old drama and leaned slightly forward. “Come on. Don’t make me look like a creep standing here talking to myself.”I stared at him, still frozen in place. “But I didn't agree to this”He smiled, one of those small, annoyingly confident smiles that always seemed to have a story behind them. “That’s right. But you still got in the car with me.”Yes, which leads to the question; why the hell didn't I walk away but walk right into his car instead? Regardless, that doesn't mean I have this in my intention So I rolled my eyes, mattered “dick” under my breath before stepping out anyway. The restaurant sign glowed softly above the entrance, warm light spilling out through the glass doors. It looked... nice. Way too nice for something casual.Inside, the scent of something rich a

    LioraWhen I turned to him, he was already watching me quietly.“Now that I’m really thinking about it…” I paused, searching his face. “It’s been you all along. Isn’t it?”He didn’t say anything right away. Though I could see the faint tension in his jaw, the way his hand gripped the wheel just a little tighter. He doesn't look like he'll be saying anything, so I went on“You really didn’t think I’d notice?” A small, tired smile slipped out of me.He exhaled, leaning back in his seat. “You think too much,” he said in an almost teasing voice but I could tell he was trying to deflect.Thus, I let out a soft laugh that wasn’t really a laugh. “Maybe I do. But I’m not wrong, am I?”He turned his head away, eyes on the road, refusing to meet mine. That alone was the answer I needed.I looked at him for a few more seconds before whispering, “Why didn’t you just tell me?”He didn’t answer that either. Just gave a faint, crooked smile that looked more like surrender than denial.So I looked aw

    Tristan After leaving Florence’s apartment, I went straight to the office. I figured burying myself in work would help take the edge off the irritation she left me with.But when I got there and saw there wasn’t much to do, I found myself reaching for my phone instead.I sent Liora a quick text, nothing serious, just a small check-in. But to my surprise, she replied faster than I expected. I actually smiled, catching myself mid-thought.So I sent another message, asking where she was considering the facts that she’d mentioned earlier that she was meeting her friends this morning, but I didn’t think she’d tell me her exact location.Still, she did. I just didn't think she'll visit the company soon. Maybe I was just in a good mood, or maybe I just wanted to see her but before I could talk myself out of it, I told Dante to handle things at the office and got in the car.I drove down to the company, parked right outside, and waited.It didn’t take long before she appeared, and the pure

    LioraI left the coffee shop about an hour later.Cassie and Jasmine had gone off in their truck. Jasmine didn’t offer me a ride today, which I was oddly grateful for.I caught a taxi straight to the company instead of heading home.There were still one or two things I needed to finish up before I could call it a day.After paying the driver, I clutched my purse, took a deep breath in, then out, before heading toward the gate.It wasn’t locked like the last time. The place looked surprisingly clean, almost unrecognizable which made me wonder just how much work those cleaners had put in.But thinking about it.. it should've been getting dirty again. Right?I stepped inside, taking in the sight of the compound. Even the mold that used to creep along the corners of the walls was gone. Someone had clearly taken care of the place.But… who?The question followed me as I made my way toward the building. The floors were spotless, the glass panes gleaming faintly in the afternoon sun.
