로그인ALINA’S POVShe could feel the lasers that were glaring out of Paulina’s eyes. Her chest heaved in anger as she stared at her outstretched hand.She watched the pregnant woman turned her attention to Micheal and back to her outstretched hand eyeing her skeptically.“Who do you think you are?!” She asked through gritted teeth.“Exactly what I said. I’m his assistant” she replied as calmly as she could.“You guys haven’t heard the last of me!” Paulina yelled and stormed off.They stared at the door for a while before he cleared his throat bringing her attention back to him.“What the hell was that?” He asked.She winced as she turned to face him as boldly as she could.“So I told HR that I’m accepting your offer” she answered.“Why?” He responded.She opened her mouth and closed it again, unable to say something coherent in response.He narrowed his eyes at her.“You have to give me a reason why Alina. And do not give me that “I just wanted to' crap” he told her.“Well I just wanted to
MICHEAL’S POV“I want you to take down everything!” He roared and slammed the phone down on its receiver and tugged on his tie to free the tension around his neck.He stormed to the lounge for a glass of water and his meds. His migraines had beeen more incessant these days.He made a mental note to visit Jeff and his doctor for another check-up. His next appointment has been cancelled two times now because he had to rectify the issues he was currently facing at work.He could hear Jeff’s nagging voice now.“You need to put you first before the business!” He smiled at the memory.Once he felt the pain relievers kicking in, he headed back to his desk to resume what he was doing.He had an online meeting with some of his investors that were scared about the company and their ongoing projects.He had to reassure that public opinion has nothing to do with their company’s value and manufacturing.He looked up to see Donald standing… more like hiding by the door.He tried to hide the amuse
ALINA’S POVAs she awoke startled. The memories from last night came flooding back to her mind and instantly she was aware of where she was and what she had done. She struggled to get out from under Micheal’s heavy and naked body, but the action was proving futile. She grunted with one last push managing to slip out narrowly getting out from under him.She scrambled for her discarded clothes strewn in a mess in the living room.She hastily put them on and with her purse and heels in hand she tip toed towards the door.“Alina please don’t leave me.” She winced at the sound of his voice.She turned to see he was simply mumbling in his sleep.She froze. In that’s perfect moment. Her heart skittered higher.She felt her defences fall away and walked towards his sleeping figure, shirtless in nothing but his unbuttoned pants. She bent to her knee and stared at his sleeping face.He mumbled something incoherent and scratched at his hair but settled back.She reached out to brush through his
MICHEAL’S POV“Sir!” He turned back at the abrupt shout of his name.It was Donald panting, bent over dying to catch his breath. He adjusted his glasses and took on deep breaths before speaking. His finger stretched in the direction of the LED 22 inches Tv screen mounted on the wall in the middle of his lounge area of his office where he had had passionate love with Alina on a few occasions.He shook the traitorous thoughts out of his mind.“Have.. you… seen the news sir?!” Donald asked.His brows furrowed together.“What news?” He asked.Without speaking, Donald headed towards the lounge and grabbed the remote quickly.He stared back at him hesitantly before clicking the button.“You really need to see this sir” His attention was brought to the screen as Paulina's face lit up the screen.“What’s going on?” He asked Donald.Before Donald could open his mouth to speak, the Sanders came into view.“Yes, Mr Micheal Wheeler was my ex-fiancé. The reason why I didn’t marry him was because
ALINA’S POV“This can never happen again” she stated as she fastened the last button on her blouse.The satisfied smile on his lips faded. He stared back at her with a confused frown.“What do you mean?” He asked, his tone a little irritated.She threw her hands up and down but said nothing.“You don’t need me to explain Micheal. You understood what I just said” she replied and cleared her throat to cover the tremble in her fingers as she fastened the buttons on her shirt.“No, I don’t. Remind me again. Because I thought what just happened here just showed you that you can’t resist me” he said taking one step closer.She rolled her eyes. “It’s just sex Micheal” she stated and walked past him.His hand reached out to grab her.“Don’t do that” he warned.“Don’t try to brush this off as casual sex. You know we both can’t stay away from each other no matter how hard we try” he told her, his voice gruff and deep.She shut her eyes tightly to keep the tumult of emotions that washed over he
ALINA'S POVThe morning sunlight filtered through the curtains, casting long shadows across the room.I stared blankly at the ceiling.For several moments, I didn't move.Didn't breathe.Didn't think.I simply lay there, listening to the steady rhythm of another person's breathing beside me.Michael.The reality of everything that had happened the previous night crashed into me all over again.Slowly, I turned my head.His arm was draped possessively across my waist even in sleep, his face relaxed in a way I hadn't seen in months.Maybe years.There was no anger.No frustration.No arrogance.Just peace.As though all his battles had finally ended.A bitter laugh threatened to escape my lips.Peace.How ironic.Because while he slept peacefully beside me, my entire world felt upside down.Carefully, I lifted his arm and slipped out of bed.Michael stirred slightly.My heart nearly stopped.But he settled again.Relief flooded me.I quickly gathered my clothes from the floor and disapp
"I guess the surprise has already hit you"he observed.Unable to speak,she nodded her reply."I know that this may come as a shock to you but you were highly recommended "he continued.She frowned in confusion. "What is that supposed to mean?"she asked skeptical of his intentions. With a wide gri
As she stared up at the blazing hot sky,she wondered what her life was going to look like .The clouds floated around happily in humor to her predicament.Being fired from the only place she had worked so hard to get into after graduation was quite a comic story indeed.As she crossed the pathway lead
All eyes were on them now as they watched the scene unfold.She had heard many stories about mother in laws and how they were always opposed to their son's choice in women.Always.She'd seen them in all the telenovelas her mum had loved to watch before she got too Ill to watch anymore."Don't be worr
"You're such a vile person!"she spat out with as much venom as she could muster.She felt her eyes sting with tears and her throats constrict in discomfort.No way was she going to let him win.She wouldn't let him.So with a defiant stance,she stood from where she sat,glaring at him."This convers
