LOGINFreya.Jade’s face went deathly pale, her skin losing all color in an instant, leaving her looking ghostly and shaken. Her voice came out trembling, high-pitched and desperate, cracking at the edges as she spoke.“I’ve been working in this mall for the past fifteen years and the mall had a huge sale today because of me. Do you think they’d fire me just because you said so?”I just smirked, a slow, cold curve of my lips, but didn’t respond. We’d see about that.My fingers flew across the screen as I quickly texted Ryder. The reply came almost immediately, as if he had been waiting for me.“Done, baby.”My cheeks flushed red instantly, a hot wave of embarrassment and something warmer rushing through my body. God, this man. My heart skipped a hard beat, fluttering wildly in my chest as heat crawled up my neck and spread down to my belly. Another reply came in.“I saw everything that happened. Zoey sent me the video.”My eyes widened in shock, my breath catching in my throat. No wonder s
FreyaWhen Vivian stepped forward, with that mischievous smile playing on her lips, I knew she was up to no good.The moment she finished spitting out those humiliating words, my eyes widened in shock for a split second. The loser has to kneel and beg like that? My stomach twisted with a sharp, almost painful mix of disbelief and dark amusement. Well… this is going to be more fun than I had anticipated. Helene, this little maggot puppet of yours will be the cause of your doom.Beside me, Zoey was already fuming, her fists clenched so tight her knuckles turned white, her face flushed with barely contained rage. She never lets Vivian off. “Spineless rat, can’t you just keep your mouth shut?”I quickly grabbed her hand, squeezing it hard to stop her from saying more. I gave her a firm look, my eyes warning her silently. I’ve got this. She understood immediately, though her jaw stayed clenched, her body still vibrating with anger.I turned to Vivian, folding my arms across my chest with
Helene.My stomach twisted nervously, a sick, churning knot that made bile rise in my throat. Cold sweat broke out on my forehead despite the icy blast of the air conditioner everywhere in the mall. My hands felt clammy, my fingers trembling as I clenched them into fists at my sides, nails digging painfully into my palms. This bitch here definitely has some tricks up her sleeves. Because why the fuck would she suddenly bring up buying the most expensive jewellery in the store just to get the Lumiere Duo?And she just stood there with her little minion, both of them smiling and laughing softly as if she had just suggested they buy some cheap fifty-penny worthless jewellery. The calm on Freya’s face made my blood run colder. My chest tightened, each breath feeling shallower, harder, like the air was thinning around me.The manager came into view, and God, that only increased the pounding of my heart by tenfold. Behind her were the five sales girls that had accompanied her, including Sar
Manager Jade.My heart was beating so fast it felt like it wanted to jump out of my chest.Nervous didn’t even begin to describe it. My palms were slick with cold sweat, my stomach twisted into painful knots, and a heavy pressure sat on my lungs, making every breath feel shallow and forced. This Miss Freya is something else. Is she really serious about buying this jewellery? Does she actually have the money?And what I saw in her eyes made a cold chill run down my spine, dread settling deep in my bones like ice water.Her gaze was calm… too calm. But beneath that calm was something sharp, dangerous, and unyielding, like a predator who had already decided how this hunt would end. No fear. No hesitation. Just cold, calculated certainty. She’s fucking serious. Have I tampered with the wrong person this afternoon? Oh God of mercy, please help me.On the other hand, Miss Helene looked just as scared as I was, but she was doing everything to hide the tremor in her hands, forcing her chin up
FreyaVivian, as always, wouldn’t keep her mouth shut even after the heavy slap she had received. She turned to the manager, her voice loud and blabbering.“Ma’am, does she look as if she can afford this piece? I feel you should sell it to Helene now.”The manager, of course, agreed to her request and nodded.She turned to me, her expression polite but firm. “I’m sorry, ma’am, but we can’t sell this to you.”“But I asked first.”“But you haven’t paid yet.”“And she hasn’t paid either.”The manager exhaled deeply, her shoulders rising and falling with exaggerated patience. “Look, Miss Freya. Everyone knows about the recent rumours flying around that you’ve been sleeping with men around. Selling this to you would betray the meaning of this piece and our jeweller, Tiffany Caldwell.”Wow. So now she’s looking for means not to sell it to me. And she still had the guts to say I’m sleeping with men. What does she know?"Oh, I see." My voice came out even. Almost pleasant. "I wasn't aware tha
FreyaZoey started laughing hard, holding her stomach as she doubled over, her shoulders shaking with unrestrained amusement.“Wow,” she gasped between laughs, wiping tears from her eyes. “Babe, I didn’t know you had such a sharp mouth! That roast was lethal. You just cooked them so bad I’m surprised they’re still standing. I’m loving this drama!”She straightened up, still grinning, and quickly pulled out her phone, set it to record, and placed it discreetly on the jewellery rack, angling it to capture everything.Helene’s face twisted with rage, her cheeks flushing an ugly red as she stepped forward, her voice dripping with venom.“You shouldn’t forget this piece of shit was once your fiancé.”I shot back without missing a beat, my voice calm but cutting.“He stopped being my fiancé the day I caught you both fucking each other.”Her expression cracked, her eyes widened in shock, her perfectly painted lips parting as color drained from her face. For a split second, she looked exposed
Freya’s POVI froze the moment the email notification popped up on my phone.My eyes stayed glued to the screen as my heart skipped a beat, my brain struggling to process the words staring back at me.“Congratulations. You have been selected for an interview.”For several seconds, I just stared at
Freya's POV "Stand up," he commanded, his voice dark and rough with barely restrained desire. I obeyed, rising on trembling thighs, knees weak, heart hammering against my ribs like it wanted to come out of my chest. My body felt foreign, liquid, like it no longer belonged to me. Every nerve endin
Chapter 10: Get out! Ryder's POV The bathroom door slammed behind me with enough force to rattle the frame. The sound echoed in the small space like a gunshot. I stood there for a second, dripping, still half-hard, cock slick and heavy with her. Freya’s sweet, musky scent clung to me unmistakable
Ryder's POV I hadn’t been able to get her out of my head since that night.The moment she left my house, still flushed, still trembling, still carrying the scent of me on her skin, something shifted inside me, something I couldn’t name and didn’t want to examine. I told myself it was just sex. Jus
