SERAPHINA

It was a miracle that I was able to walk into the office with the craziness that was going on right outside.

Tristan had been right in telling me to stay back.

The moment I stepped into the office I felt it instantly. That feeling when a fog just descends upon a land, except this time, it was a fog of silence.

The office that was usually alive with the hum of keyboards and quiet chatter turned into a vacuum of silence.

They are staring at me like I committed a fucking crime, I think

  • Mr Billionaire wants a bride   What if she knows the truth

    ANTONIO“So let me get this straight,” I said, my voice low as I stood up from the chair in front of him. “You’ve been a mole for the police force within the mafia for all these years?”My father didn’t flinch. He didn’t even look ashamed of it at all.If anything, he looked… tired.“Something like that,” he said, leaning back in his chair like we were discussing business over dinner instead of the foundation of everything I thought I knew about him. “I feed them information. In exchange, they don’t interfere with my work… or that of my family.”A hollow laugh left me.“Your work,” I repeated. “That’s what you’re calling it now?”He ignored that, as he took a quick gulp of his drink again.“Why would you even keep something like that to yourself all these years?” I asked, stepping closer, my gaze locked onto his. “You expect me to believe you just casually decided to play both sides and never thought to mention it to your own son?”His jaw tightened slightly.“It started after your mo

  • Mr Billionaire wants a bride   It had to be done

    ANTONIOPerhaps I shouldn’t have let her go like that, I thought, under my breath as I watched her disappear behind the door of her apartment building.For a moment, I just sat there. Hands gripping the steering wheel, as I prayed that she might just walk back out in her normal stubborn nature and demand an explanation for it all. Perhaps I would give her one then.But of course it never happened.I exhaled sharply, leaning back into the seat, dragging a hand down my face.I had fucked that up. But I knew it had to happen.There was one thing and one thing only that I needed her to understand and that was how dangerous my father actually was. She needed to stay far away from him at all cost.I let out a slight chuckle now, as I thought about how she was the only thing that was stopping me from plunging the knife on the table into his throat and ripping out that lying tongue of his. The fact that he sat there with that perfect, charming smile of his and fed her just enough truth wrappe

  • Mr Billionaire wants a bride   What is happening

    AURORAI watched as Antonio’s father cleared his throat and shifted his chair backwards. “Are you leaving already?” I asked, as the question slipped out of me before I could even stop it. The whole dinner had been a very enlightening one; enlightening in the sense that I now knew how much Antonio actually hated his father, and it was a lot. Even now, as I sat here I could still feel the hatred pouring out of his body in waves.His father paused midstep and smiled at me with that same polished smile that he had worn since the moment he arrived. “It was a pleasure meeting you, Aurora,” he said, his voice smooth like aged wine. “We should do this more often.”I smiled in return. “I’d like that.”I wasn’t even sure if I meant it.His gaze lingered on me for a moment longer than necessary before shifting past me.“See you, son.” He said to Antonio.I turned instinctively toward Antonio who was staring at him with those cold, blank eyes of his. His jaw was clenched so tight that I thoug

  • Mr Billionaire wants a bride   Touch her and I will ruin you

    ANTONIO“Why isn’t her phone going through?” I muttered under my breath, as I pulled the phone away from my ear for what had to be the fifth time.The call had failed again and that wasn’t exactly something that happened with Aurora. She was chronically on her phone, I remembered because I had to take it from her the day I told her to paint that apple.“Come on, Aurora…” I muttered, hitting redial again.Straight to nothing. Just dead.My jaw tightened up at this. Normally I would have ignored and went on with my day, after all it wasn’t like why I was calling her was so important. I had just wanted to check up on her and see if she was alright since I didn’t get the chance to turn in today.Even now, as I thought about it I wondered why I was doing it in the first place. I had to remind myself that this was a fake relationship after all, I didn’t necessarily have to talk to her every day or pretend in private.At the back of my mind I knew this wasn’t pretence though, I had just genu

  • Mr Billionaire wants a bride   You look just like her

    AURORAI squinted as the sun hit my face. I hated the fact that I didn’t come out with my shades today of all days.“Fuck this weather.” I muttered under my breath, as students passed by in clusters, laughing and arguing.I looked into my bag at that moment, as I pulled out my phone, tapping the screen for it to come on, but there was nothing.It dawned on me at that moment that I hadn’t plugged it in.“Oh shit,” I whispered, pressing the power button again like that would magically fix it. “I forgot to freaking charge it.”I let out a small groan, dragging a hand through my hair. Of all days for my phone to die, it had to be today. Antonio hadn’t shown up at school and hadn’t said anything either. I was about to call him to find out why, but now this.“Great,” I muttered. “Perfect timing.”I turned slightly, already thinking about heading back inside to plug my phone in for a few minutes. Just enough to get a little battery, make a call, make sure everything was…I stepped forward,

  • Mr Billionaire wants a bride   Get your house in order!

    “Do you think I am a fool, Hector?”The moment the voice came through the line, Hector Valera knew this was not going to be one of those courtesy calls. In reality, he actually knew from the moment that the call came in from Andressa’s father, his tone had just cemented it.He remained seated behind his desk, as his fingers tightened ever so slightly around the phone.“Thiago,” Hector said evenly. “To what do I owe the pleasure?”“Do not insult me,” the man snapped. “I have just received word about what your son has been doing.”Hector’s expression didn’t change, but something colder settled behind his eyes.Of course he had. Andressa had come back to the house yesterday crying and when he had asked her what was wrong, she had told him that it was Antonio's fault.It was always Antonio.Hector had already braced himself for this call since morning which was why he was seated now.“Antonio can be… impulsive,” Hector replied calmly. “He is young.”“Do not patronize me,” the man cut in s

    SERAPHINA“Half a million dollars,” I said, my voice steady despite the storm raging inside me, as I placed the black duffel bag on Pedro’s desk. “Exactly what you asked for.”I hated the fact that I was in this room again, especially after what happened the last time. But it was needed. This was g

    SERAPHINA“I can’t believe this is happening.”My voice had come out in a whisper as I stepped out of the hospital doors, the automatic glass sliding shut behind me. It was already dark outside and the evening air hit my face, cool and sharp, but it did nothing to calm the storm which was raging in

    TRISTAN“I’m not staying for dinner.”That was the first thing I said when one of the maids greeted me at the door. She had already begun to ask if she should set the table when I loosened my tie and stepped inside. Deep down I actually wanted her to because I could already feel the exhaustion gnaw

    SERAPHINA“You wanted to see me?” I said, as I walked into the office, feigning confidence like I had not just dreaded the whole walk here.The moment the door shut behind me though, I felt the air shift. It was heavier in here and I could feel the tension from him as he sat there behind his desk w
