A Dark Corner

Elara Winterfell.

My clothes were beginning to stick to my skin due to sweat that poured down as I walked tiredly under the hot sun. I was roaming the streets while trying to put my mind together. There were numerous people who saw me and had taken pictures and videos to mock me.

What would I do at this point? A face jumped into my mind and I jolted in my trance. Tricia! I could call her for help. She still lives in the state, maybe she could help me out for a few days until I could find my feet.

I took out my phone and looked for a shade to stand under. I dialled her number and she picked on the second ring.

“Hello? Hello? Who is this?” Her voice filled the speaker and I breathed a sigh of relief. At least she picked up the call.

“Tricia… It's me.” I said softly. “It's Elara.”

“Oh…" I could hear the disappointment in her voice. “How are you doing, Elara?” She asked with no hint of warmth in her voice.

I could picture her standing in her house with her weight r

  • My Baby Daddy   Help Me?

    Chapter 27Help me?Elara Winterfell.“Behave yourself!” He growled at me with dark eyes as his thick brows furrowed in concentration to thoroughly clean the wounds of my sole.I gulped. But it was ticklish when his fingers grazed them! I tried to stifle my laughter, instead it came out as a moan, and I couldn't help but feel my cheeks redden in embarrassment.“You seem to be enjoying this, don't you?” He eyed me.I shook my head immediately. “No sir. No sir. It's just ticklish, and…"“Did I ask you?” He snapped at me, his eyes boring holes into mine.“I'm sorry, sir.” I whispered and tried to relax my legs.I wanted this over as soon as possible. He was my boss, and he also had a woman — a stunning one at that. Why was my heart racing as he carefully held my legs to clean up the bleeding leg? After he sent Natasha back to the room, he had asked me to follow him to his study as he needed me to finish some office work for him (promising to pay for overtime, of course), but my blood tra

  • My Baby Daddy   She Froze

    Chapter 26She Froze.Natasha Reeds“Is this how it usually is?” Isabel asked wide-eyed as she made herself comfortable on my bed, scooting closer to me as much as her bulging belly could allow.“What do you mean?” My forehead pinched together in a confused frown.“I mean… " She tried to find the right words, and when she settled on something, she asked. “I don't mean to butt into your relationship life or something, but Rowan just sent you upstairs as if you were a petulant child, and you just obeyed.”“What good will it do if I opposed him?” I didn't understand what she was getting at. “He is obviously tired and stressed from work, why would I want to compound that by starting a fight with him?”I reached out for my bedside drawer, drawing it open to take out the alcohol wipes in them. I was really getting itchy under the makeup I wore. Furthermore, I casually wiped the makeup off my face and turned to Isabel who had a flabbergasted expression on her face.“What?” I eyed her.“I'm s

  • My Baby Daddy   Double Trouble

    Chapter 25Double Trouble.Elara Winterfell.I finished cleaning and was disinfecting my wounds when the doorbell rang. Miss Anna was still helping Ma'am Natasha out in the room, and that meant I had to get the door. I took deep breaths as I slipped my feet inside the soft foam slippers that Miss Anna had kept for me. Ignoring the sharp pains in my legs, I made my way towards the door.“Good day, and welcome—” I felt the color drain from my face as I stared at her in shock, the cruel smile she always wore was plastered to her face. “Is…Is…" I couldn't even say her name as I felt my knees go weak in her presence.I held on to the door for support, leaning into it. The smirk on her face widened as she let herself inside the house.“Hello, Elara.” She smiled, her features melting from the evil smile to a genuine one. “It's been a while since we met, ayy?” Her eyes glinted.“What do you want here, Isabel? What are you doing here?” My voice was barely a shaky whisper as I gripped the door

  • My Baby Daddy   Shards Of Glass

    Chapter 24Shards Of Glass.Rowan Nightshade.“Can't this car move any faster?” I barked at my driver who was moving the car as if it were a snail. I had to get home immediately. Didn't he see I was in a hurry? “Do you want to lose your job? You can quit right here and now and get out of you can't press your legs harder against that accelerator!”“I'm trying my best, sir,” he said helplessly. “There's traffic up ahead. It seems like there is an accident. That is what is causing the hold-up, not me. I'm really sorry for the delay, sir.”I knew it was the hold up, but I couldn't help but get even more tense. The longer I stayed in the car, the more agitated I was getting. Natasha was a bully, and any woman who looked remotely young automatically became a threat to her. It didn't matter who the person was. She was basically jealous of my own sister before she died! One thing I feared even more than the bullying was if she connected the dots herself. If she linked Elara's last name to her

  • My Baby Daddy   Girl's Company

    Chapter 23Girl's Company.Isabel Reeds.“Why can't you be more like Elara, huh?” The irritation in his voice made my heart clench in pain. “You copy her in everything she does, yet you can't be like one percent of her!”His face was red with anger as he buttoned his wrinkled shirt. I sighed to myself, looking at the stacks of well ironed clothes that I had prepared for him this week, but he deliberately chose to wear that brown shirt.“Connor…" I sighed out tiredly, my back was aching from the pregnancy and I couldn't stand much longer. I settled myself on the bed beside him. “If you want to wear this shirt, let me iron it before you leave.”He quickly pushed himself from the bed, as if disgusted by my presence. With hard eyes, he warned me seriously. “Don't you ever touch my clothes with those puny dirty hands of yours! I'll have to trash those and get new clothes because of you.”I held the tears that threatened to overwhelm me as he gave me a look of disgust. Where did I go wrong

  • My Baby Daddy   An Unpleasant Situation

    Chapter 22An Unpleasant Situation.Rowan Nightshade.“How did this happen?” I snarled at the small man who cowered in front of me. My rage knew no bounds. “You are aware that he is one of our most important clients, why did you have to make such a silly mistake?!”“I'm so sorry, sir…" His voice was quivering as his knees grew weak, and he fell to the ground in front of me. “Punish me, sir! I have done a terrible deed.”“Terrible is an understatement!” I sneered. “You've made us lose hope of future deals with them!”“I didn't want to. I didn't want to. I didn't want to.” The tears were falling from his eyes this time which thoroughly disgusted me.“So it was intentional, wasn't it?” My forehead creased into a deeper frown. I rolled the sleeves of my shirt, my veins popped out showing how angry I was.“I would never betray you, sir!” He kept on pleading. “You have to understand! They took my wife and children! They said I had to sabotage it! Please sir! I beg you. Have mercy on me! I h
