~Owen~

Black knee skirt, cream colored shirt, and a matching blazer. The outfit accentuated her confidence while doing little to hide the grace in her movement.

The cream fabric softened her features, creating a contrast against the dark tone of the office. However, that wariness in her eyes, intensifying with every second did not escape me.

She was looking at me as if my scar had grown uglier over the night. Her eyes by now would have shot several bullets at me if they were designed to kill.

  • IN HELL WITH YOU    27— Ulterior Motive

    ~Owen~Black knee skirt, cream colored shirt, and a matching blazer. The outfit accentuated her confidence while doing little to hide the grace in her movement. The cream fabric softened her features, creating a contrast against the dark tone of the office. However, that wariness in her eyes, intensifying with every second did not escape me. She was looking at me as if my scar had grown uglier over the night. Her eyes by now would have shot several bullets at me if they were designed to kill.I looked at her like a total nut of surprise she hadn't expected to wake up to. A curse she wants to escape.Being away last night had given her the chance to escape the touch of my hands, which she dreaded so much.Apparently, seeing me seated here today as the new CEO was the least she'd expected. Watching her cower at my presence made my lips slide into a sly smile."Are you going to stand there all day and watch me? Aren't you going to formally welcome me to the company?" I spoke. She stif

  • IN HELL WITH YOU    26— The Fear

    ~Elowen~"Good morning, Mr CEO. It's a great pleasure to welcome you to our studio and have you as our new CEO."Director Mike stepped forward, offering him a bow and extending a hand.He acknowledged the gesture with nothing more than a nod of his head and hand received in brief handshake.Again, the whispers rose, and everyone was as stunned as I was to hear the MD address him as the new CEO.Even the reporters and camera crews present to capture the moment hesitated, too intimidated to raise their cameras.All stared at him bewildered."He looks vicious," A lady beside me whispered."Sure he does," Her friend approved under her breath."Why is he on mask?""Probably he is too handsome and didn't want us to see his face?" The other lady giggled sheepishly."Or he has a deep scar that he doesn't want anyone to see." Her friend deadpanned.My hands clenched tight beside me.Everyone as if in que held up a gaze at him. Someone brave suddenly raised her hand for attention, questioning.

  • IN HELL WITH YOU    25— It Was Him

    ~Elowen~"I'm fine Emy. At least for now. I'm perfectly fine." I spoke in a low tone so as not to let any other person hear our conversation as I already noticed a sharp gaze some steps away from me, shifting between me and the car with that menace ached in her eyes. She must be thinking I had made a hit on one of those S-daddies to earn me such a luxurious car— what she always assumed people do because that's exactly how she manipulates to get to any position she wants.She was one of the city's treasured actresses, sweet as they call her but I know even Lucifer was once called an angel."I was afraid, Els. I didn't know what to do when I saw the message. Please forgive me. I should have done something to save you from him." Emily's voice trembled.My attention returned to her looking genuinely concerned and angry that she had done nothing to help me get away from Owen."You shouldn't be sorry, Emy. No one could have stopped him. No one will succeed." I tried to calm and assure her

  • IN HELL WITH YOU    24— New CEO

    ~Elowen~I woke up to the throbbing of my head, the aching of my body, and light sipping in through the open window and shining directly on my face. My whole body ached, part from too much tossing and turning on my bed and part from thinking of my new fate all through the night.Good thing he had not returned last night, giving me the chance to spend the night alone in the room, thinking, wondering where he had gone, what he was up to, wary of him walking right back through the door and running his fingers on me again.I kept asking myself questions I could not bring an answer to. Who truly was he? What life had he lived to earn him that scar? Who were those people who visited him last night that he left without returning?It seemed darkness lurked just knowing he's there somewhere.My phone buzzed, cutting short my deep thoughts, reminding me I should have been at the studio yesterday.I took the phone, staring at the caller ID. It was my manager.I was supposed to have been at the

  • IN HELL WITH YOU    23— It's Time

    ~Owen~“I have no idea of all you're talking about, Mr Vitmoz. Please believe me. I speak the truth. I know nothing about him and all the accusations.” He denied.I scoffed. "Fine. Since you want us to continue with this game. Then so be it. You and I are going to enjoy it." "Lock him up," I ordered Melvin, walking out of the cell room. Instantly, Mr Walker's grunting voice echoed off the bars, begging to be freed.Melvin proceeded to lock the bars from the outside."Mr Vitmoz, please don't do this to me. Please don't keep me here. I can't stand it!" Groaning, he struggled to his feet gripping the bars with his chained hands but he still was not giving any information."If you want to be freed. You know what to do." Let's see how long Whitehead can keep hiding. Having Walker here will send a clear message to him."I brought a friend who would take care of you while you make here your new home. Bring him in." Again, I ordered Melvin.A man came shuddering in front of Melvin as he was

  • IN HELL WITH YOU    22— Always Very Mischievous

    ~Owen~ I let my fingers tap slowly on the iron bars, then silently walked the space closer to the man in front of me as his eyes slid open. Every time I saw his face gave me a reason to make him suffer. Those memories, fresh in every new day lived far beyond what I could get rid of even after rebirth. But then, fate had its way. Only if he had not been reborn into this world as the father of my mate, I could only imagine what would have become of him right now. Noting how his years of trying to live like a human affected his eyes, he blinked several times to get acquitted with the dimly lit room. However, I knew he saw nothing. He did not need to be blind folded to stop him from seeing. With his lenses removed from his eyes, it did the work without stress. I watched him struggle just to know where he is. Melvin dusted his hands on his pants, smiling at his efforts in fixing the flickering light in the room before moving aside to speculate on the scene. “I know you‘re l

    ~Owen~ "So how are you going to stop Elowen's plans from happening? The moment she does it and the news is out, that would be the end of her marriage with you. You wouldn’t want your image to be tainted, would you?" Melvin asked eagerly. I could only imagine the ruin it would bring to Elowen, on

    ~Elowen POV~ For the third time, he rejected the million-dollar compensation offered to him. Who the hell does he think he is?! I stared at the rejected document crumbling at the intensity of my grip on it, a bitter laugh escaping my lips at my own question. Of course, I know who he was. He was

    My eyes snapped open. My head jerked to the side, breath catching as his sleeping face flashed before my eyes. Close. Devastatingly close. He lay beside me, utterly unguarded, lashes resting against his cheek, chest rising in a slow, steady rhythm that mocked the chaos pounding inside of me. M

  • IN HELL WITH YOU    3— Plan B

    ~Elowen PoV~ A few hours later. I stood in front of Haven's hotel, its tower pressing in on me. I acknowledged the environment as it eased a little of the chaos in my mind. It was a place free of swarming fans trying to get a picture of you or making you sign an autograph, and the darkness of the
