Pen & Passion All Three of Us
The pad was quiet when I padded out of my room, the clock blinking close to midnight. I couldn’t sleep—not after the fight with Joaquin. My head throbbed with every replay of his words, his hesitation, the way he looked like he was being torn apart from the inside.I wanted peace. Just a glass of water, maybe some silence.But then I saw him.Javier.He sat on the couch in the living room, a tumbler of amber liquid in his hand. The dim lamplight caught on the sharp lines of his face, the scars of a man who’d lived a hundred lives since the boy I knew. Normally, he’d greet me with some sly remark, a smirk that made me want to roll my eyes.Not tonight.He looked… tired. Raw. His dark eyes lifted to mine, and for once, there was no teasing in them. Just something heavy, something that made my steps falter.“Couldn’t sleep?” he asked, voice roughened by the drink.I shook my head, hugging my arms around myself as I crossed the room. “You either?”A ghost of a smile tugged at his lips. “S
Pen & Passion Breaking All of Us
The ride home from the signing was suffocating.The city lights flickered past the tinted windows, but all I could feel was the ghost of Joaquin’s words echoing inside me. None of it was just for show.They replayed over and over, sinking deeper with every repetition, until my chest was tight and my lungs refused to fill properly.When we stepped into the bachelor pad, Javier wasn’t around—thank God. The silence made the air heavier, though, stretching taut between Joaquin and me as he hung his jacket on the back of a chair and loosened his tie. I stood by the couch, still clutching my bag like it could anchor me.Finally, I spoke, the words ripping out of me before I could second-guess them. “You can’t keep giving me half of you while the other half belongs to her. Don’t make me repeat myself over and over, I already sound desperate and it hurts my pride.”The sound of his name caught him mid-motion. His hands stilled on the tie, his head turning toward me slowly. “Haven…”“No.” My v
Pen & Passion A Fleeting Moment
The bookstore was already buzzing when we arrived.Bright lights, a sea of faces, the air thick with the scent of paper and ink. Joaquin’s latest novel had just hit the shelves, and the turnout for his signing was overwhelming. Fans lined up against the walls, clutching copies of his book to their chests, their chatter a constant hum.I’d attended plenty of his events before even when I was still Jessy’s editor. But today was different. Today, I wasn’t just Haven, his editor. I was Haven, Joaquin’s fiancée.And I hated how much my heart raced because of it.“Ready?” Joaquin asked beside me, his voice pitched low enough that only I could hear.He looked maddeningly composed. Gray suit perfectly fitted, silver tie knotted just so, his dark hair swept back with casual elegance. Not a hint of nerves showed in his face, though his hand brushed mine with the faintest graze.I jolted at the contact, but he didn’t withdraw. Instead, he laced his fingers through mine as if it were the most natu
Pen & Passion Wanted that Clarity
The pad was too quiet.Too quiet for the storm clawing inside my chest.I’d slipped out of the bedroom, hoping that moving—anything—might keep my thoughts from spiraling back to the dance, to the way Joaquin carried me in front of everyone like I was fragile glass, to the weight of his arms that had felt both real and unreal.But instead of peace, I found Javier.He was lounging on the living room couch like he owned the place, dark slacks and a plain shirt half-untucked, a glass of whiskey balanced carelessly in his hand. The TV glowed with something he wasn’t even watching. He looked up as soon as I entered, that damned smirk tugging at his mouth.“Well, well,” he drawled, lifting the glass slightly. “The runaway princess is back. Couldn’t sleep?”I froze for a heartbeat, then exhaled sharply and turned toward the kitchen. “Don’t start, Javi. I’m not in the mood.”“Not in the mood for what? My company? My charm?” His tone was teasing, but his eyes followed me with an intensity that w
Pen & Passion 1Most of All
I went to the bathroom. However, what I did not expect, was that he followed suit and watched me, as if seeing if I was okay.My reflection in the mirrored wall looked pale, eyes rimmed red, lips swollen from a kiss I shouldn’t have allowed.Joaquin stood beside me, calm as ever, hands in his pockets, gaze fixed forward. He hadn’t said another word after that. Not after that kiss. Not after I pushed him away.And I hated myself for it.Because the taste of him still lingered, and my heart was still beating as if he were holding me against his desk, whispering my name like a prayer.But instead, here I was, arms crossed, chest tight, suffocating in silence.The doors slid open. He stepped out first, striding down the hallway with his usual controlled grace. I followed, clutching my bag like it was the only thing tethering me to the ground.Inside the apartment, the city lights bled through the windows, bathing the living room in soft gold. I stopped by the door, watching as Joaquin shru
Pen & Passion Me... or Still Her?
The day stretched long, words blurring together on the page as the soft hum of the city seeped in through the office windows. My pen scratched idly against the margin of Joaquin’s manuscript, but my attention kept drifting.To him.He sat across from me, one leg crossed over the other, his focus sharp on the screen before him. For a while, it was just the rhythm of silence between us. His typing, my note-taking, the quiet companionship that had somehow become our routine.Then, as I reached for another stack of pages, my hand brushed against his.A spark shot through me, quick and treacherous. My breath hitched. His fingers didn’t flinch away immediately. In fact, they lingered, grazing against mine like he was weighing the choice of whether to pull back or… not.I dared a glance at him. His jaw was taut, eyes fixed on the screen, but I felt it. The awareness humming between us, thick and unspoken. For a heartbeat too long, neither of us moved.Then he cleared his throat softly, his ha
