2021-09-09 23:17:28As I padded over to the sofa, the aftermath of my drinking hit me. Glancing around I felt like a slovenly pig. There were to empty wine bottles, one on it's side, the other miraculously still upright. A third bottle was lying, partially concealed by a cushion, looking as though I had tried to open it and gave up.
The discarded pizza box was open, soggy with grease, crusts and crumbs were scattered all over the table, a single slice with a bite out of it hanging over the edge. The glass I had been using was under the table, chipped and cracked, the straw nowhere to be seen.
The worst part though, except from not remembering the second bottle of wine, was the blood on the floor. There were smears and fingerprints on the leg of the table and spanning outwards from a small puddle that still looked wet and sticky in the middle.
Thinking that it would be better if my new employer didn't see the havoc I had created for myself, I turned back to him to try and stop him c

I had been expecting a reply from Anna before now. It was almost lunchtime and I'd spent most of the morning checking my emails more times than I had in the last week, unable to concentrate on anything other than her response. Lunchtime came and went, I was too anxious to eat so settled for a strong black coffee. What if I had scared her off with my last message? By the time mid-afternoon had arrived, I had gone from bubbles of anticipation to my stomach churning with apprehension. Even if Anna was having second thoughts about my proposed job offer, I believed she would've let me know in no uncertain terms, so why hadn't she replied? Looking through the details I had for her, I found her number and decided to call her after some hesitation. I honestly felt like I was losing my mind over her. No answer. I pushed redial and again let it ring until I heard her melodious voice asking for a message to be left. "Hello Miss Taylor, this is Mr Warner. I

"Uurgh....", my whole body felt heavy, as though someone had tied me down with weights. My eyes flickered but I couldn't open them. Attempting to roll-over, I must have tried to compensate for all the imaginary weights, because the next thing I knew was i was on the cold floor, landing with a dull thud. A sharp pain shot through my head as it bounced off the edge of the table as I went down. Lying there, curled up on floor, I waited until the pain was replaced with a dull ache before attempting to open my eyes again, managing a small crack but it was to blurry to see. Slowly, I bring a shaking hand up to the edge of my hairline, gingerly touching the spot where my head and table connected. I could feel hot and sticky moisture on my fingertips. Well isn't that just freakin' great! I'm bleeding, the smell of copper and iron now invades my nostrils, making my stomach churn. I attempted to push myself off the ground but my blood slick hand slipped, se
Painful Obsession Chapter 7. Aiden.
Sitting at my desk, I felt like hitting my head on it. I'd all but propositioned a complete stranger that I had quickly become obsessed with. I found my self willing her to reply, re-reading what little contact we have already had. I'm pathetic. I've worked hard to build my billion dollar empire, I have several research facilities, labs and dispensaries, properties that range fom modest and affordable to luxurious and down right extravagant. I'm the director of several charities and own hotels and restaurants and yet here I am, losing my mind over a beautiful girl. Apart from Warner Labs, everything I have bought and sold has been done so privately and anonymously. I value my privacy above all else. When you have an over abundance of wealth people expect or demand more of you. Keeping myself out of the spotlight, helps stave away the vultures and endless women wanting to become Mrs. Warner. Not that I don't want a wife, I just wish it was easier to find
Painful Obsession Chapter 6. Annalita.
Mr Warner,Thank you for your speedy reply. I am amazed that I am so high on your to-do list, given how in demand a high profile man such as you are surely is.You are absolutely correct in regards to my need for knowledge and I feel that the role of researcher will suit me well. I do not think that a change in career anytime in the near or distant future is in my plans going forward.I believe you wish for me to be more specific with what I want from our correspondence. Here are my wants as you desire:1. I want, most kindly, to be informed about which of your many facilities I shall be stationed in, specifically, to aid my knowledge quest.2. I want, most fervently, to know when I shall be needed to start my quest within your company. It would be most advantageous, as sat twiddling one's thumbs is not listed as part of my long term career goals.3. This is more of a wish than a want, but would you be willing to divulge any information on a
Painful Obsession Chapter 5. Aiden/Annalita.
I stared at the screen, I thought about the options laid before me. The most boring would be to come clean straight away, confess why I wanted her at Warner Labs and make myself look like a creepy douche. I scrapped that idea straight away.Maybe I could feign ignorance, see if I could get her to elaborate on what she thinks being on my private payroll would entail? That could be fun, seeing what path her mind would take her down. Definitely a possibility.Glancing once again at the words on the screen, I can tell that it was written with emotion. Her rage fuelling her words. Perhaps I shouldn't overthink it and see where the mood takes me.Rolling up the sleeves of my navy shirt, I set to work:Miss Taylor,I'm very grateful for your timely response to the offer I made to you earlier today. I feel that is a matter of great importance that requires my immediate attention.Firstly, I would like to commend you on your keen thirst for knowledge
