“Mr Winters?” It was Pepper again. She poked her head through his office timber door, nervously grinding her fingers against the stainless steel fixtures on the doorknob.
“WHAT?” Daniel looked up from his files, a perpetual frown on his face.
“Um..don’t forget the gala at seven tonight.”
Daniel groaned, he hated charity galas. He didn’t understand why he had to go, he’d already sent them a cheque. Why couldn’t they just leave him alone? The only thing good about the galas were the women but he didn’t have a –
Partner.
He raised his chin.
I’m married. I have a partner.
“Pepper, call Jane. Tell her to get ready for the dinner tonight.”
A look of utter horror crossed Pepper’s face. “She doesn’t have a phone, Mr Winters.”
“WHAT?!!” His voice boomed across the room.
His PA&rsq

The massive double door opened to a grand hall where brightly lit chandeliers hung from a sky-high ceiling with cloud murals, bringing life to the elegantly decorated ballroom. All around, people in evening gowns and suits swayed to the melodious tunes played by violinists and cellists.Jane’s eyes widened as she marvelled at the tastefully decorated interiors of the ballroom with a sea of red carpet and golden sculptures of angels complete with engravings at the sides of the circular walls.“You like it?” Daniel’s deep baritone broke through Jane’s awe and she blushed, embarrassed by her obvious ogling of the ballroom.“Yes, it’s beautiful…” she gushed before her inner nerd surfaced and took over. “Artio Palladio was only twenty two when he was commissioned to design the interiors of this great hall. His work is famous! No one’s ever come close to matching the magic he weaves whenever he &hellip

Jane was torn between two men. Like literally. On one hand, Daniel was holding her with a vicelike grip, and on the other, Wayne was still holding onto her outstretched arm. She felt like a stuffed doll in the middle of a tug of war between two children. Yes, the two grown men were behaving like little children. What was she? Some toy? Pfft. “Excuse me, gentlemen,” she said through gritted teeth and wriggled herself free from both their grasps. Both men’s eyes fell on her, confused by her sudden reaction and as if on cue, they both frowned. Oh boy Jane, you’ve done it now. You’ve just offended two Mr Winters. You’re in deeeeep shit. She forced an awkward laugh and stole a glance at both men but none of them returned her laughter and she quickly clammed up and gulped. A drop of sweat trickled down her neck and she scrambled to find a way out of the sinkhole she had dug herself into. Her saving grace came when her eyes fell on a lanky waiter wi

Daniel clenched his jaws as he continued stroking Jane’s silky mane. Who was the bastard who defiled Jane when she was in a vulnerable state?“I’m sorry, I wet your shirt,” Jane mumbled, pulling back from his embrace and wiped her eyes. She had calmed down slightly and was trying to stifle back her sobs. He finally understood why she pushed him away during their first meeting. Deep within her subconsciousness, she was still haunted by the monster.“It wasn’t your fault,” he said, wishing he could take away the darkness that was eating her alive.She lifted her head with the faintest smile and even with her puffy reddened eyes, Daniel thought she still looked breathtakingly beautiful. She pointed at his shirt, chuckling a little. “I made you look like you’ve been dunked in a water tank and you say it’s not my fault?”“You should change out of this. You might catch a cold,” she co

So much about being seen and not heard, Jane thought as she stepped into Daniel Winters’ office. The place was huge! Daniel could easily fit in an extra five more office desks and there would still be more than enough space for everyone to mingle around.Even baby Timmy seemed to appreciate his surroundings. Gurgles of bliss came from his little mouth as Jane laid his carrier down on the sofa. She straightened back up and took a peek at Daniel. With his back facing her, he shed off his dark blue jacket to reveal a perfect V-shaped back and hung them on a silver rack.Butterflies fluttered in Jane’s stomach and she had to consciously peel her eyes away. Strange, was she blushing? Jane quickly cupped her cheeks, feeling the hot flush that pulsated from her skin. She couldn’t understand why she was suddenly so nervous to be in the same room as Daniel Winters. Was it because of last night? She was surprised at how comfortable she had been in his

The glass doors slid open to a luxurious open space that was bustling with energy and activity. All around were staff sketching drawings on large pristine white desktops as luscious green wall plants behind them filled the room with fresh air. Other staff sat around an island table debating over their designs in hushed tones but animated movements while a few others lounged at the bright yellow and light grey bean bags as they worked on miniature models of houses. Next to them, a staff jumped onto an adult-sized slide and zipped all the way down to the floor below. Wayne watched as Jane took in the surroundings, gasping in amazement.“This place is an interior designers’ heaven!” she whispered in bated breath and a smile crept upon him face, happy to see the excitement in Jane.A young man with dyed green hair and a nose ring popped out of a glass encased office cube. It was a sound cancelling corner for designers to think in peace. Pulling down his h

Half an hour later, Jane ran back to Daniel’s office as fast as her feet could carry her and breathed a sigh of relief to see little Timmy sleeping soundly on the sofa without a care in the world.“What? Did you think I’d gobble him up while you were gone?” Daniel stopped typing and peered at her from behind his flat screen desk top.She placed a hand to her chest, feeling her engorged breasts. They were swollen, tender and screaming at her to feed her child.“Oh no, no, not at all,” she said, flashing him a nervous smile and quickly scooped up her baby. Daniel cocked his head and curled his mouth downwards in his trademark frown. “Where are you going?”She spun around, the nervous smile still plastered on her face. “I need to feed Timmy…” she replied sheepishly. The nursing room was two floors down and she would have to carry little Timmy past a great number of departments to reach

Daniel Winters felt like slapping himself silly. What on earth was he thinking trying to kiss Jane? Sure she had looked so vulnerable standing like an innocent lamb in his office, but that was no reason for him to lose his senses!For goodness sake Daniel Winters, she was unwell and you tried to take advantage of her! He blasted himself internally as he stormed into the office pantry only to find the place void of any human presence. The place though simple and sparse was tastefully designed with a lone concrete island table in the middle and an L-shaped countertop at the side which housed a mini bar, a microwave oven as well as an open cabinet full of junk food.Daniel’s eyebrows arched slightly at the sight of stuffed nachos and cheese rings. He had no idea his staff ate junk. He almost never mingled with his staff and usually got Pepper to make his coffee, and therefore had never set foot in the office pantry before.I need caffeine to clea

TWO WEEKS LATER“Prepare dinner, do the laundry and clean the house!” These were Daniel Winters’ daily orders every time they came back to the penthouse after an exhausting day from work.Why on earth did she think that Daniel Winters was prince charming anyway? For the past two weeks, he had been anything but charming. In fact, Daniel was insufferably mean to her, often working her to the bones without giving her any rest whatsoever. The only time she got to sit down and rest her aching feet was when she breastfed little Timmy in the nursing room, but apart from that, she had become his errand girl; making coffee, printing papers, delivering files, ordering lunch and even dusting his office!“Oh, and wash the bathroom too,” Daniel said as soon as she came out from the maid’s room after having bathed little Timmy.Jane blinked. “But..I just washed your bathroom last night,” she answered, frowning. She was ex
