LOGINJessica's POV.It has been a while since I saw Ben. He has been silent. The last time he came with a file at my place and the other day he met Kennedy in my office. He hasn't come around since then. And Kennedy has been acting off. Ben hasn't been in office recently. I stayed in my office that morning, my mind was restless. I kept going through the files from the clients that I had to attend. As a knock came on the door, talk about the devil. It was Ben.“Come in.” I said.He walked in and sat down without me asking him to. “What is the meaning of this?” I asked as I looked at him.He stood up immediately as he now sarcastically said.“Oh my Boss, my bad. Please can I have a seat?” He said with a smirk.I didn't say anything as it was obvious that he was getting on my nerves. “You haven't been working lately, I hope you know.you were employed to work and not to mess around.” I said. “Well I have been looking for ways to fix what you didn't have the guts to handle.” He said with a
Jane's POV It was morning already but I was just feeling as if it should not be morning yet. I was in pain, physically, mentally and emotionally. I now rolled on my bed as the light that was coming from the sun of the morning was following me. I looked up at the ceiling as I placed my hand on my forehead. The fever had now gone down. I now started to force myself to sit up and I felt pain on my wrist, it just made me remember what happened yesterday evening. When Ben came to threaten me to stay away from Kennedy. He held my wrist till it started hurting. I looked at it and I saw a red bruise, he also held my neck. I now started to slowly remember everything, his words, the look that was on his face, the fear that was in my eyes. I kept my hand on my neck as I stood up from my bed and went to the mirror.I now started looking at the person that was looking back at me, she was looking as if she was very tired, pale, stressed. When I started looking closer, the bruises that were on my
Kennedy's POV It was morning. The light from the morning sun was bright but it did not outshine the heavy feeling I woke up with. I was awake before my alarm rang as sleep refused to come. I stayed up all night as I just kept tossing and turning on my bed. I wasn't able to sleep after everything that happened last night. I haven't spoken to her since then. I saw her walking out of a man's car when she told me she bailed out on me, telling me she was going to be busy at home.I couldn't bring myself to listen to her explanation without thinking of her being in his arms. And I said something that made her sad. And I couldn't even go after her afterwards. What was I even doing? Was I being selfish? I could only bring myself to text her saying I was sorry but she didn't reply to it. I dragged myself out of bed lazily as I looked at myself in the mirror. “What are you doing to yourself?” I muttered.I could not remember the last time I felt like this for a woman. I was cold and heartl
Jane's POVA knock came on the door when I was about to fall asleep.I felt too tired to stand up and soon the knock came again. I stood up as I was dragging myself gently. I opened the door and immediately I saw him. Ben pushed his way through and I was shocked.“What are you doing here?” I said as I was shocked.“Shh, don't make a sound. Step back slowly.” He said as he closed the door and locked it behind him.Fear filled me immediately. The look in his eyes made me shiver from fear. “Ben, what are you doing?” I said as I refused to move.“You are still as stubborn as always. You never listen.” He said as he brought his palm to my face.“Get your filthy hands off me.” I said as I smacked his hand.“I just want to have a conversation with you, as lovers like we always do.” He said with a smirk on his face.“I can see that you are finally going crazy.” I said.He laughed. He was acting very weird today. There were times like this in the past where he acted this way towards me and m
Jane's POV It was morning already. My head felt heavy and all my body was aching. I felt as if I was run over by a truck. The morning sun was so bright that the light slipped through the lines in my curtains, I reluctantly stood up and closed them properly filling the room back with darkness.Sarah and Hannah laid beside me putting me in the middle as if I was a chick that they were protecting from being carried by an eagle. They stretched as my movement from when I went to close the curtains woke them up.“Good morning Jane.” Sarah said as she stood up.“Good morning to you too.” I said as I sat down back on the bed.“Give me the last piece of the cake.” Hannah mumbled in her sleep.We all burst out into laughter as I held my head immediately. “Are you okay?” Sarah asked me immediately with concern on her face.“I honestly don't know,” I said. “I feel sick.”“Oh dear,” Sarah said. “Dont you think you should at least visit the hospital to know what's wrong with you?” “I think so t
Jane's POV Kennedy was parked outside my apartment, I had no idea he was there or how long he had been there. I was already tired and needed a warm shower but I could not just go inside addressing whatever was now going through his mind.I walked towards his car and I knocked on his glass, he didn't open it and then I knocked again. He opened the door to the passenger seat and I entered inside and sat down.He didn't look at me, not even for a second. There was silence for what felt like a minute until I finally spoke up. “How are you doing?” I asked, looking at him.But he didn't say anything and at that point I knew what I had gotten into. “What are you doing here? I told you I was going to be busy.” I said and immediately he replied.“Busy? Did you just say busy?” He said, “You told me you had things to do at home, you didn't tell me you had to be in another man's arms.” “Stop it, just stop it.” I said with anger in my voice.“Fine, explain what you were doing in another man's
