Outside, Reid shamefully bowed his head, picking up the sounds of hand hitting flesh and painful groans from a muffled mouth.

He only could stay there for ten seconds before he stalked away from the door.

Just as he took bare ten steps, before the door reopened behind him.

"Leaving so soon? I thought you'd like to be a part of the fun a little while longer?"

With his back turned, Reid stops walking. "No, thank you. I'd rather go and start soliciting for better investors. Ones who won't have me kidnapping women for them."

Alec laughs mockingly behind him, tutting to himself right after. "I hope you find one that will give you a hundred billion for nothing. You've done the work for me, just take the rewards already."

Without giving him any response, Reid just keeps walking, tightening his fists so hard that his knuckles turn white. He trudges swiftly back to his car, fires up his engine and speeds out of there, deliberately avoiding the car parked haphazardly by the side of the driveway

  • Seducing My Husband's Arch-enemy!   Glowing Diamonds

    The restaurant glowed softly in the evening light, all warm amber glows and the low hum of a pianist in the corner. It felt even warmer with low lighting, candles flickering on each table and the sound of soft jazz in symphony with the piano, floating in the background.Raees smoothed down her dress for what had to be the third time since they walked in, a flutter of nerves in her chest despite the confidence she wore on the outside. Reid, beside her, tugged at his collar like the fabric was strangling him.Again and again, Reid adjusted his collar as they walked in, and Raees gave him a quick sidelong glance, amused, even though she was no better.“They’re not going to bite, you know,” she teased, slipping her hand through his arm. “You look like you’re about to go in there to stand trial,” she teased.He muttered, tugging the edge of his jacket, “King of feels like it. Only this jury knows how to scold, and we are running just a little bit late too.”Raees bit back a laugh, leaning

  • Seducing My Husband's Arch-enemy!   Some Cracks

    The bar was dim, heavy with cigar smoke and the low hum of jazz spilling from hidden speakers.Rowland Flanagan hated the smell, hated the chatter, hated being seen here at all. But Alec had chosen the place, and Rowland wasn’t in the mood to argue. Not after the disgrace he’d been forced to swallow at the inauguration just a week before, one that he’s only just recovering from.He spotted Alec in the corner, lounging like a man who owned the entire world. His suit was tailored to perfection as always, dark hair slicked neatly back, a tumbler of whiskey swirling lazily in his hand. No one would ever suspect the shady dealings the man had in the plam of his hands with the way he always looked clean cut and normal.He looked up the moment Rowland approached, a slow smile tugging at his lips.“Rowland Flanagan,” Alec said smoothly, rising just enough to clasp his old friend’s hand. “Still standing tall after all these days of no contact. I was beginning to think you’d stopped calling bec

  • Seducing My Husband's Arch-enemy!   First Meeting, First Mission.

    The glass-paneled conference room gleamed under the late morning sun, every surface spotless, every eye in the room waiting for the meeting to actually begin. Cecelia did a quick observation of everyone in the conference room as she stepped in, clutching her folder of notes tighter than she meant to.With every step she took to the chair at the head of the table, she reminded herself over and over that she has to show them all, that she is not just a figurehead but can be pretty capable to be their Director.The heads of department were already seated, from Marketing, Operations, Finance, and even down to Logistics. A few glanced at her directly, others tried not to, but she could feel it all the same.Even she is still adjusting, how much more them.Cecelia set her folder down at the head of the table, at the Director’s seat. For a heartbeat she hesitated, but then she pulled the chair out and sat down with quiet certainty.“Good morning,” she said. Her voice was calm, carrying just

  • Seducing My Husband's Arch-enemy!   Show of Authority

    That blatant and unhidden disrespect continued every day of the week until the day of the rescheduled meeting for Friday.Cecelia stepped into the office building and all the way down to the lobby, with her arms full. Her handbag slung awkwardly over one arm, a slim transparent folder tucked beneath her elbow, phone balanced precariously in her arm’s grip.While Clara walked briskly ahead of her, clicking her heels like she was the one leading the meeting instead of the Director herself. All she had in her hands was her phone and nothing else, leaving all of the other effects of the meeting in Cecelia’s hands.Out of nowhere, the phone slipped from Cecelia’s grasp and clattered to the marble floor. The sound echoed loud and sharp down the spacious reception. She froze for a split second, shifting her folder and bag so she could bend sideways to pick it up.Clara didn’t even pause in her stride, rolling her eyes.She momentarily glanced back once, eyes flicking to the phone on the floo

  • Seducing My Husband's Arch-enemy!   Secretary in Heels

    Cecelia stepped out of the elevator with her chin high, blazer pressed sharp against her shoulders, and her heels clicking smartly against the marble floor. Every step echoed down the hallway like a reminder that she’s not a secretary anymore, with all the greetings left and right.The plaque gleaming at the end of the hallway with her name imprinted on it was good proof as well.But, knowing this still did not alleviate the weight at the lower part of her stomach.She spotted Clara, her newly promoted secretary immediately, leaning back in her chair outside Cecelia’s office, long legs crossed, and her phone in hand as she tap-tap-tapped away on its screen. A lollipop stick jutted from the corner of her mouth like some kind of badge of honor.Clara didn’t bother to rise, she didn’t greet Cecelia either and neither did she even look up, it was just as though it was another random gust of breeze blowing past her.The two interns standing awkwardly nearby exchanged glances, shifting thei

  • Seducing My Husband's Arch-enemy!   Marry Me!

    She was leaning against the arm of the sofa, her red hair slightly tousled from him running his hands through it earlier, her arms wrapped around herself as if holding in the same storm of emotions that twisted inside him.“Gosh, staying away from you, being a gentleman can be quite draining.” He whispers as he went to stand by the large mantel, sneaking glances at her however.“I didn’t ask you to be a gentleman though. I want you too, so damn bad.”One of those glances, her eyes met his, soft and understanding, the kind of look that didn’t need words to convey everything they both felt.Reid didn’t hesitate.He closed the distance between them in two long strides, his hands finding her waist, pulling her up against him with a quiet desperation.Raees melted into him instantly, her arms sliding around his neck, her fingers threading into the short hair at the nape of his neck. She pressed her cheek to his chest, feeling the steady, familiar thump of his heart beneath her ear, the war
