LORETTA

One thing I came to learn about Elion was that he liked to have control.

No. He loved it.

He liked being the one with the upper hand, the one pulling the strings while everyone else danced to his tune, the one who made the rules and people followed. In the time I have spent with him, I learned that much.

I also learned how to push back.

Tonight however, I had no idea where I stood with him to fight this strong urge gripping me tight as he stands at the edge of my bathroom, telling me t

    ELIONThe second I felt her pulse jump beneath my grip, something beastly inside me strained against its leash.That part of me that I spent three days trying and failing to bury. “Tell me something, Rea,” I breathed into the space between us “Do you enjoy making me choose between my sanity and you?”Her eyes, those impossible ethereal eyes stared up at me with strong will and defiance, it made my blood hot for all the wrong reasons “If it means you'll finally stop avoiding me” Loretta tilted her head in my grip, her eyes ablaze with a fire I've never seen before “Then yes, go mad for all I care”A low growl rumbled behind my chest. What Loretta didn't know was that I had made that decision a long time ago, the one to choose between her and my sanityBecause, tell me why, despite knowing that she is the biggest security hazard in my life, I still can't stop wanting her. The distance was supposed to make this easier, three days of avoiding her were supposed to make me come back to m

    LORETTA The office fell silent. Not quiet, silentThe kind of silence in spooky graveyards at night, I was pretty sure that if an office pin dropped to the floor, we all would be able to hear itMy eyes swept over the spacious expanses of the office, past the four men seated behind the large hardwood desk, dressed in clean, pressed expensive suits, and landed in Elion's murderous gazeMy lips curled upwards into a satisfied smile. He was angry, Good. Let him be angry, so am I!For three seconds, no one spoke. I wasn't even sure if anyone breathed, and three seconds could be a very long time depending on the circumstances For three long seconds, I didn't look away from his coal black eyes, eyes so dark and dangerous it felt like I was being sucked up into a black holeMy hand was still wrapped around the door handle behind me, I let it go and stepped into the office, the sound of my heels loud in the silence Elion's jaw tightened to the point where it could and would snap, his expre

    LORETTABy the time I arrived at Fitzpatrick Holdings, my anger was hot enough to melt iron, steel, and diamond all at onceWaiting for Elion to come around hadn't worked.Apologizing or at least trying to apologize didn't work either. Playing nice, sweet fiancée has been a waste of my timeWhat did that get me? Silence, Distance, and cold shoulders. He wouldn't talk to me? Fine. He skipped breakfast? Also fineBut last night was where I drew the line. I was not going to be one of those miserable women who lost themselves in their marriages. Hell, Elion and I weren't even officially married, yet I was waiting all night for him to show up only to have Mrs Parks inform me that my fiancé, I mean the man I was getting married to in less than two months has decided that his office was a better place to stay inSo it was time to bring out my big guns of insanity and do something so reckless that Elion would have no option but to sit down with me and discuss our problems like adults The e

    LORETTAThe penthouse was quiet tonight. So quiet that I could hear the clock on the wall tick by I sat, waiting. That was all I had been doing for hours now...waiting.After Zoe and I practically buried ourselves under a mountain of work, I managed to clear most of the emails that had piled up during my time away. By the end of the day, my eyes ached, my head throbbed, and my heart was just as heavy as it had been that morning.I already knew there was no point waiting for Elion when we closed up. He had made himself painfully clear that he didn't want to see me.So I reluctantly came home instead.After a long shower, I changed into a simple cream camisole and a pair of loose cotton pants before wandering downstairs. I didn't even bother going to bed, There was no point.How could I sleep knowing there was this ugly distance separating Elion and me? We have always had our issues. We've argued, fought, pushed each other's buttons, and driven each other to our wits' end, but never t

    LORETTA I came downstairs as early as I could.The penthouse was silent, even the air felt heavier than usual. Outside, the dark sky was slowly giving way to the rising sun.A spark of hope ignited inside me.It was a new day—a new day to make things better than yesterday.I had decided to give Elion the space he needed. He was angry, and talking to him immediately would only make things worse.Inside, the lights were dimmed low. I walked carefully down the staircase in my work heels. This was usually the exact time Elion left for the company, and I had made sure to wake up early enough to see him before he went.Not that I had slept anywayEvery time I tried to close my eyes, my mind dragged me back to his bedroom, back to the look on his face when he told me he never wanted to see me in there again A short, pained breath rushed out of me. It hurt more than I wanted to admit., It hurt so bad that every second since yesterday was torture. Every time I tossed in bed at night, my gaze

    LORETTA“Elion” I repeated weakly.He..he was here. He wasn't supposed to be here but he was, dressed in his expensive black suit and black shirt that only made him look more dangerous Those coal black eyes zeroed in on me and the air in my lungs turned to stone. If I weren't already kneeling, I might have collapsedElion's scrutinizing gaze dropped to the floor, he took in the rug I folded back and the open safe in the floor then slowly back to me My stomach feels straight to the floor. “It's...it's not what it looks like” I scrambled to my feet so quickly I nearly lost my balance.One dark eyebrow rose, “No?”His expression and tone remained perfectly calm, the kind of calm that sent chills all over my body. ”What exactly does it look like, Rea?”My mouth opened and closed. My heart was practically begging to be set free from my chest. My brain shut down on me when I needed her the most because I couldn't think of any sensible lie to cover myself with “Why...why are you here?” I
