Just Before My Wedding: Trapped By My Ruthless Boss Chapter 98
OCEANS.For a moment, I did not move from the doorway.If I moved too quickly, I would drag Jace out of that chair by his collar. If I spoke too soon, I would say something that would turn the room into a war zone, and Kisarel was too damn weak for the violence already collecting under my skin.So I slowly stepped inside and closed the door behind me.Someone had sent roses. I didn't care who.Jace’s hand stayed wrapped around hers. His thumb was moving over her skin in slow strokes. I wanted to rip his arm off, but I didn't.I fucking couldn't.So I stood there with my hands in my pockets, forcing air into my lungs with my jaw locked so tight I could feel it in my teeth, and I pretended that the sight of another man touching her did not make me want to commit violence.“What happened?” I asked.Jace answered before she could even part her lips."She got dizzy. She collapsed."My gaze slid to him.He sat straighter, still holding her hand like he wanted me to notice. “Elgin brought he

OCEANS.By the time I stepped into Stark Industries, I had already used up whatever patience the morning required.I had left the house before I did something cruel enough to make even me pause.The elevator doors opened to my floor, and the first thing I noticed when I pushed the door open was the silence.Kisarel’s desk sat empty outside my office.Her chair was tucked in.Her computer was off.The mug she loved using was not there.I stopped walking.For one stupid second, my chest gave a hard, uneven thud, and I hated it so much my jaw tightened.Then I moved again.She was late. That was all. She was emotional. Dramatic, maybe. Punishing me in the only way she could, with absence and silence and those wounded eyes she knew damn well had started getting under my skin.I pushed my office door open and threw my coat over the back of my chair. Everything felt so fucking wrong.I stood behind my desk and stared at the files waiting there. None of them was arranged in her order. No yel

KISAREL.The second time I woke up, the light was different and softer. The blinds had been adjusted, and the fluorescent overheads were off, replaced by a small lamp on the bedside table.Someone had tucked the blanket higher around my shoulders. My arm still ached, but the burning had faded to a dull throb.I turned my head, and the first person I saw was Jace.My heart dropped. I should have been relieved.Jace was my fiancé. Seeing him beside my hospital bed should have made something inside me soften.Instead, disappointment sank through me so fast I almost hated myself for it.Because a stupid, reckless, shameful part of me had expected to see someone else.Oceans.The thought alone made my throat tighten.Jace was sitting in the chair beside my bed, with his elbows on his knees, and his hands clasped together like he was praying.His eyes were red. His jaw was tight. The moment he saw me move, his whole body jerked forward.“Arel?” His voice broke on my name. “Baby? Thank God.

OCEANS.I was running late today. Not because I had anything pressing to take care of at home. But because I had stood in front of my closet for twenty minutes trying to convince myself that going to the office was something I still did.That was new. That was fucking pathetic.I had built four companies from the ground up. I had closed deals that made men twice my age weep with gratitude. I had never once woken up and wondered if showing up was worth the effort.But, going there and seeing Kiss? It was something my self-control had been warning me about, screaming that it couldn't handle it anymore.I was running out of ways to ignore it.It was hell. Staying in the same space with her and pretending I was not one bad second away from dragging her into my office, locking the door, and reminding her exactly what part of my entire being she possessed.Fuck.I fucking missed her. But staying away was necessary.Moon didn't hesitate to move in with me. And her parents had practically han

KISAREL.The first thing I felt was my arm. It was burning so hot and deep, like someone had lit a match under my skin and left it there.The second thing I felt was the cold, sticky sweat plastering my hair to my forehead, soaking through whatever thin fabric I was putting on.And at the same time, I also felt a kind of feverish warmth... It was not the normal fever... It wasn't the kind that required a blanket and a plate of hot soup to quench.I tried to open my eyes, but my lashes stuck together, and my head pounded so hard I thought something inside it might split if I moved too fast.I tried again, and I was met with a white ceiling, fluorescent lights, and the beeping of a machine somewhere to my left.Hospital.I was in a hospital."Arel." Elgin's voice came from somewhere close. It sounded wrecked. "Arel, can you hear me? Open your eyes. Please open your eyes."I turned my head slowly, and the movement made the room tilt.He was standing beside me the next second.He looked wr

KISAREL.Elgin leaned toward me as Nessa walked farther away from us. “She is good.”“I know.”“But, that worries me.”“Everything worries you.”“No, chérie. Bad people are easy. You see the teeth, and you prepare for biting.” His eyes stayed on Nessa as she stopped in front of a stall glowing under amber lights. “Sweet people are complicated. Sometimes the sugar is there to hide the poison.”I looked at him.Then Nessa turned and waved us over, her smile bright enough to make the warning feel far away.“Come on,” she called. “If you’re slow, I’ll eat yours too.”Elgin straightened his tie like he had just been challenged to defend his bloodline. “Well,” he murmured, walking ahead of me, “if she is poison, at least she comes with dessert.”I rolled my eyes and followed him.*“This woman with the recipe,” he said, after his first bite, holding the cake carefully, “must be protected by law.”Nessa grinned. “I told you.”“You did not prepare me emotionally.”“You looked too serious.
