IVAN'S POV

I pushed my glasses up my nose as I side eyed Christian. We were both pulling all nighters because of a new building project we just started on. But once again, despite all of the chaos in my head, Reign still found a place for herself and settled there.

How did she manage to wrap me around her fingers so quickly?

Shaking my head as if it would help me get rid of the thoughts of her, I turned to Christian. “We will visit the site together tomorrow, along with Paul. Remember to make the necessary arrangements as well with the residents around to notify them that construction would be starting soon. We need to avoid any future threats.”

“Alright, sir.” Christian replied. “Paul has sent a few design concepts but we still need to assess the site before we decide and as usual we are working with Darshen Construction on this as well.” I nodded in response.

The next few hours passed by quickly as we both got engrossed with work. My phone vibrated on the table, drawing my attentio

  • Love in the Headlines    Soap opera

    REIGN'S POV I pulled away and stared back at grey eyes. They were the color of steel and the ocean on a stormy night. I couldn't look away. It sucked me in and didn't let go. I was enchanted….at least for a while because the next minute, my eyes widened as the weight of what I had just done collapsed on my shoulders. I scrambled back in shock and regret, unintentionally hitting the basin of the water and sent it crashing to the floor, alongside myself. It was simply chaotic. Ivan sat up and looked at me on the floor in shock. Everything was probably happening too fast for him to comprehend.I didn't waste time groaning and moaning on the floor as I rose up immediately and ran to the utility room, under the guise of picking the mop to clean up the mess.“Oh my God, I'm such a fool.” I cried into my hands when I was wrapped up safely in the small utility room. The first time, I could blame the alcohol, after all I was too drunk to make any wise decision but I had no excuse now. I kiss

  • Love in the Headlines    Once: a mistake, twice: intentional

    REIGN'S POV It was all I could think about all day. Even during the shopping with Henry early that morning, I barely remembered how it went, it just passed like a blur. I wasn't even sure if the gift we got was what I wanted. Perhaps that was why Henry left early, he must have felt my disinterest. Thinking about it now made me feel bad but I had more pressing issues on my mind.My lost blood? Who had referred to me as that? I had no family left in this world, I was sure of that. Then who was it?Finding out who received the package on my behalf might give me a clue, hence why I was downstairs, pacing and waiting for Ivan’s arrival. I had no idea where all the workers were so he was the only one I could run to.The clock on the wall showed that it was past 11. Why was it taking so long for him to return home? Henry had mentioned an annual CEOs meetup at our meeting but I didn't pay much attention to it. I wish I did now.The sound of the door had my eyes snapping to it and I ran to it

  • Love in the Headlines    Petty coward

    IVAN'S POV I had no idea what I was doing, really or what I intended to achieve with this. Was it to tell him to shut the fuck up? Or to tell him to stay away from Reign? Who was I to give that command? Her father? Brother? Boy…friend?“What the hell do you think you are doing?” Henry asked, glancing down at my hands that were holding his collars tightly before looking at my face.Yes, what the hell was I doing? Was I trying to put myself into more trouble than I already am with my father? He was already suspicious, based on how often I had appeared in the media in the past months. Why was I making it even worse?I released his collars harshly and stepped back, my eyes unintentionally clashing with that of Mel. She looked shocked, alongside a different emotion I couldn't place. I looked away and scoffed, I didn't give a flying fuck what she thought about me or this situation. Christian didn't look any less shocked. I was probably going to get an earful from him as well.“Don't you th

  • Love in the Headlines    Just Melanie

    IVAN'S POV “Give me a very important reason as to why I had to be here.” I sighed as I adjusted my suit jacket. I would rather be anywhere else.Maybe at home, in the kitchen precisely, chatting with Reign like we used to. We hadn't done that in such a long time. So much has happened between us since then and the distance between us has only doubled in size. Perhaps we hurt each other way too much.And that kiss….“It's the annual CEO banquet, Ivan. It's impossible for you not to be here. No two ways about it.” Christian scoffed beside me.“You could have stood in for me.”Christian side eyed me. “And why will I do that?”“You have been no fun since your break up.” I rolled my eyes, grabbing a glass of champagne from a passing waiter.“I decided to stop taking bullshit from people.” He shrugged. “So I was doing bullshit?” “I didn't say that.”“Come, let's fight it out, you—”“Are you guys forgetting that everybody can see you?” Christian and I both turned at the sound of the voice

  • Love in the Headlines    Lost blood

    REIGN'S POV I pushed the door open and sighed. Today had to be one of the longest days ever. Quite a lot had happened since I opened my eyes, I almost couldn't believe it was the same day. I glanced at the bag containing the gift box in my arms and looked away, the guilt weighing heavily on my shoulders. I was shameless. I shouldn't have accepted her gift knowing what I did to her.The door closed behind me with a click as I pulled off my shoes and trudged towards the stairs. However,the sound of the television made me pause in my steps. I sucked in a deep breath at the sight of Ivan sitting comfortably on the sofa. I was not ready to face him yet so I turned away in a hurry, hoping the television was loud enough to cover up the sound of my entry.“Reign.” He called out, making me close my eyes in trepidation. I had been caught.I reluctantly looked at me, tensing up as he switched off the television and walked toward me. His expression gave nothing away. It was the usual stoic and b
