ELION

Control was a non-negotiable tool in my world

Everything I did hung in my control. I prided myself on being a man who isn't easily fazed. Even when I was sentenced to three years in prison, nearly lost my company to my greedy family, and watched as my life went downhill in a split second, even then I didn't lose control

Not in suffering, not in pain, not in business, and most certainly not over a woman

Not just any woman, but the one I spent years plotting on how to take revenge agains

    LORRETA The taxi lurched forward, pulling into the road before I could hurl out a very colourful insult towards HeathHe leaned back against the seat, his notes crinkling as he glanced around the taxi. “You could have ...”“Did you seriously just pull the 'I'm the man, so I decide' card?” My voice came out sharper than I have ever used with him, I stared at this stranger who was seated beside me with new eyesHeath sighed softly, “Look, I didn't mean to...”“How dare you come at me with that sexist crap?" I snapped, not caring about what else he wanted, and planned on saying I was done hearing him out. I was D O N E. Genuine remorse crossed over his face, he reached a hand to touch me but I swatted it so fast and hard that Heath flinched, shifting backwards and away from me. “Lo, what's wrong with you?”Shock and agitation rippled through me “What's wrong with me? You dare ask me that question after this foolishness you just pulled?” My hands shook, not from fear this time but fr

  • Married To A Billionaire Nightmare    Chapter 69

    LORETTA FIVE MINUTES EARLIER Heath's hand was extended out, hovering between us in a pregnant silence, hope lit up in his eyes “Come with me” he said again, as if he repeated it enough times, I might agree to I looked at his hand, then at his face, the boyish face I once admired years ago, and my heart softened for him “Heath…” I started gently, choosing my words with care. “I appreciate that you're looking out for me. I really do.” His eyes brightened even more, a slow smile spreading across his face. “So you'll come with me then.” It wasn't a question. “There's this new Michelin-star restaurant close to my place. We could check it out if you're up for a date.” His gaze drifted toward Rosa's, his nose wrinkling in disapproval. “It's a lot better than... whatever this is.” A sad smile settled on my lips. In some ways, Heath wasn't a bad person. He could be thoughtful, caring, and even incredibly kind to the people he considers his friends, but his biggest flaw had alw

    ELIONI pulled up to Rosa's so hard and recklessly that my tires screeched against the pavement.I was out of my car before the engine fully turned off. My heart hammered so violently it felt like it was trying to outrun me, to find Lorreta himself before I make another mistake and screw us up like I did in the office The bell above the café door chimed as I shoved it open without enough force to break the fragile glass. Every conversation paused, every single movement froze, and everyone watched me as if I'd just dragged a storm in behind me. They wouldn't be wrong to think so.My eyes swept the room with quick desperation. Past the students, an elderly couple, a woman typing on a laptop, a mother trying to keep her toddler from taking off his shoesNo Lorreta My heart skipped beats I scanned the room again, slower this time, hoping this time, hoping that I had somehow missed her, that if I looked close enough she'd be right there, sitting by that empty table close to the windo

    LORRETA“Heath?”I blinked— twice, just to be sure that the person across the street from me was infact Heath and not some doppelganger who looked exactly like him His honey brown eyes lit up in surprise the minute he spotted meMy father had told me Heath would be returning to Seattle, but I hadn't expected him to be here of all places. I wasn't even supposed to come here today...at all. So meeting my past friend, and ex-boyfriend, across the street in Seattle was very unexpected. I guess the day was still full of surprises after allHe tried to cross the street, but a truck sped past immediately making him halt. That single second was enough for the knots in my stomach to pull tight. While a part of me was glad to see an old friend from my past, another part of me dreaded what Heath's presence would bring He finally crossed the street, covering the distance between us. “Lo" A grin spread on his face and before I could answer, Heath pulled me in a hugInstinctively, my body stif

    ELIONI had read the same report four times and my comprehension of it had not improved the slightest bitIt wasn't that I didn't know what I was looking at, the numbers were there – revenue projections, acquisition margins, third quarter adjustments, everything was nearly arranged in the precise order Dennis always prepared them in, and yet I could understand nothing of itI set the report down, picked up my pen, and set my pen down Outside my office windows, Seattle was doing whatever the fuck Seattle did in the afternoon, going about its life with ease like mine wasn't tearing down right before my very eyes*Things changed* I could hear her voice viscerally as if she was still here with me. Ache spread over my chest like venomI tried to convince myself that I'd made the right call by keeping her at a distance, that whatever Loretta Sterling said in the aftermath of being caught was just some acts of self-preservation to save her skin, damage control even It was the same instinct

    LORRETA The question hung in the air between us like thick smoke, the kind that choked the life out of people Michelle didn't blink, just sat there with her elbows on the table and her eyes on mine waiting for an answer “That's ridiculous” My voice sounded almost breathless. Why did my voice sound almost breathless?“You sure about that?” she chipped pleasantly “Yes,” I answered too quickly. Michelle's brow arched, leveling me with a suspicious look. My fingers balled into a fist at thinking that I could be in...love with Elion. The idea of it all was laughable. Of course, I no longer wanted to shove a knife into his eye every single time we were with each other, but that doesn't mean that I love himWhat we have...had was nothing more than a small tolerance that happens when people live with each other, love was out of the books for Elion and meNot in this lifetime at least, we have too much history and bad blood to ever fall in love with each otherEver!“Mm," She hummed, pick

    LORETTAMy heels clicked on the marble floor“Hello, Ma'am.” Daniel— Elion's assistant greeted me when I passed his desk. I gave him an answering smile before passing him and the waiting area. My heart threatened to burst out when I got to his office The CEO of Fitzpatrick's Holdings: Elion Fitzpa

Although we shared the same floor, that didn't mean we ran into each other during work days, or at allWe have practically turned into stra

    LORETTACeleste didn't know when to shut up“And to the right, you will notice the hand-laid Italian limestone statue of a cherub. There are only three of this craving in existence and this one right here—” she swept her hand over the odd-looking thing “—has been imported specifically for your upco

    ELION My hand was around her throat. Her delicate, fragile throat. All it would take was one flick of my wrist and I would never have to endure her presence ever again But then, I would never see her ethereal eyes come alive with hate and rage, Loretta would be gone for Good. There would be n
