Not your Knight in shining armour

Chapter 1“Meredith...We should break up” It was Zachary who uttered those words with no remorse or a hint of guilt to accompany his horrible five words. Meanwhile Meredith couldn't quite believe if the words she heard were a nightmare or a reality; if she were to blink, the water works wouldn't be far away but she had to maintain her dignity but she was finding it hard to do so.  “Why? Did I do something wrong? Can’t we just try to talk it out?” Her miserable pleas were pitiful even to her own ears, She was having a hard time breathing and she knew Zachary wasn't the kind of person to fool around, throwing the word 'breakup' carelessly.  “Meredith...No… it's not working out for us. Baby,listen We are just so different,I’m always

Chapter 3  A year later,  “Godammit Ruth! How could you wake up late today!?” Meredith cursed annoyingly under her breath,running across the street on her cheap four Inch heels,sweat trickling down her face in the heat of a summer morning.  It was decided last night that Ruth had to drop her at the office partly because she doesn't want her ex-boyfriend to see her sweaty and red after a year on her first day of work. Yet, She's going to present herself the exact way she was trying to avoid.  On the way to the company, She called Ruth who hadn't woken up but she was persistent. She wanted to murder her best friend because she's late for w

Chapter 5 Gray's office was as exactly as she had expected: still and completely soundproof,clean and coordinated with expensive sofas and tables sat in the middle of the spacious white office.  Perched up on the chair,typing away on his laptop were Gray Westmore who didn't even acknowledge the duo who just walked in. Meredith's stomach churned from the ball of nerves creeping up her soul, but she knew better than to alert him of their presence. She had never met someone as intimidating as the person who sat in front of her. Noah, however, had other plans, he rushed towards Gray with a squeal.  Her heart screams internally When Gray looks up; annoyed and angry. She kept her mouth shut, and stood straighter.

Chapter 7 Mondays are always the worst way to wake up knowing that work is only a few hours away. Meredith trudged towards the bathroom and took a cold shower,screaming in the process. Only when the shock wears off did she feel all freshen up and she's ready for the painful working hours of the day.  Dressed in a skin black tight pencil skirt and a maroon top, she tied her hair up with a silver hair pin. Applying a bare makeup on her face, She walked down the streets of her neighbourhood and hailed a cab, giving Directions to the cab driver. Most of her co-workers hated walking and coming to the office in a cab but she liked the simplicity of walking down the street and breathing in fresh air. Besides, She's too paranoid about getting comfortable without a walk, the fear of gaining weight being the sole reason. At Least she likes the idea of losing fats by walking.  When Meredith reached the office ten min

Chapter 9 Meredith I was the first one to slide out of the car and ran up to my apartment without needing to turn back to see if Gray was following. He did.  What was I thinking? Bringing Gray Westmore to my apartment? For a cheap fuck? That sounds so horrible when I put it that way. I am single for almost a year now but sex with my boss?....Who is insanely hot and dangerous!? I could hear my heartbeat in my eardrums, ba..dum..ba..dum. We are in the elevator riding up to my floor, he's behind me,his scent assaulting my senses that I could hardly stand straight. It isn't too late to back out but my guts told me that Gray Westmore wouldn't be ecstatic about my change of decision and I wasn't saying that because I wanted him or his body.Nope.  The elevator dinged, as well as my heart. Gray was the one to walk out,taking my hands in his and dragging me towards my apartment. I should b
