Elara's POV

I had to take the offer.

It was just too good to decline. All I had to do was stay and help with Amaya's father's birthday preparations. In return, she would pay me a reasonable amount of money, and then I could disappear like nothing had ever happened.

Although the offer didn't come with protection against Antoine and Luc, I refused to let those bastards get to me.

So, I decided to confront Antoine myself.

Not the best decision, but I had to show him that I wasn't scared of him and

  • RUINED BY MY BOSS AND HIS STEPSON    Dancing with fire

    Elara's POVI had to take the offer.It was just too good to decline. All I had to do was stay and help with Amaya's father's birthday preparations. In return, she would pay me a reasonable amount of money, and then I could disappear like nothing had ever happened.Although the offer didn't come with protection against Antoine and Luc, I refused to let those bastards get to me.So, I decided to confront Antoine myself.Not the best decision, but I had to show him that I wasn't scared of him and wouldn't hesitate to fight back if I needed to.As soon as Antoine returned from whatever hole he'd disappeared into, I followed him to his room.For the first time, I saw a look of shock on his face.“What are you doing here?” he asked, taking a step forward. “I didn't call for your services.”Just like I didn't call for this kind of life, I said in my head.“Do you need something?” he asked.“I just came to talk,” I replied.He inhaled deeply before pulling his shirt off.“Whoa!” I screamed,

  • RUINED BY MY BOSS AND HIS STEPSON    One word away.

    Luc's POV.“And why should I agree to this?” I asked. “She clearly wants to leave, and we can't stop her.”“Don't you understand?” Amaya frowned, folding her arms across her chest. “My father's birthday is in a few days. He deserves an unforgettable birthday. It's bad enough we had to postpone the wedding.”The wedding.The mere mention of that word made my blood boil.“Paris is a big city. You can hire anyone you want,” I said. “Do you realize that so many people would kill to be in that position?”“Do you realize that your fiancée is a picky person?” she shot back. “If only you spent as much time with your fiancée as you spend trimming your gray nose hair.”No. You're just a spoiled brat. Your friends are too scared to point it out.I exhaled deeply, pinching the bridge of my nose. “I've been busy, and you know that.”“You've been too busy to even look at your fiancée?” she scoffed. “I know this wedding is nothing but another business deal to you, but the least you could do is put s

  • RUINED BY MY BOSS AND HIS STEPSON    A bigger knife.

    Elara's POV.Amaya had successfully, unintentionally made the situation worse. I kept begging her that it was a slip of the tongue, that nothing happened between us, but she insisted that Antoine should be arrested.I haven't seen Antoine since the day she confronted him, but I knew damn well the only thing that was going to change was him boldly making my life miserable in the house.I wanted to run away, but I remembered I had no money, no friends, no family... basically no one I could rely on. And I refuse to go back to sleeping in tents to survive.After breakfast, I stared at the small knife in the knife block, dangerous and stupid thoughts filling my mind—ones I knew I couldn't bring myself to act on even if I wanted to.Antoine has been missing for two fucking days. A normal person would be relieved, but I wasn't. Anxiety gnawed at me from the inside out. I couldn't eat. I couldn't sleep. I couldn't even take a deep breath without being scared of making a sound.I hope Amaya go

  • RUINED BY MY BOSS AND HIS STEPSON    A war worth starting.

    Antoine's POV. “Antoine!”I heard Amaya’s voice before I saw her.She marched into the pool area, her fists clenched and jaw tight. She looked like she was a minute away from exploding.I slowly removed my sunglasses as she walked over.“What is the meaning of what you did?” she glared, placing her hands on her hips. “Do you really want to start a war with me? Are you that desperate?”I didn’t flinch.She was the one who came into my space. Everyone knew better than to disturb me when I was relaxing at the pool. She should know that.Yet, she ignored it, and I’m the problem.I shifted my body on the chair, getting comfortable, and slowly pulled my sunglasses back down over my eyes.“I have no idea what you’re talking about,” I said, my voice calm and flat. “Now leave before I make you.”She let out a sharp laugh. “I dare you, Antoine.”As much as I’d like to accept that challenge, it just wasn’t worth hearing Luc’s voice, moaning over the death of his fiancée.I turned my face slight

  • RUINED BY MY BOSS AND HIS STEPSON    I want out.

    Author's POV.“Gosh, your ring is so beautiful,” Amaya's friend, Ginger, blushed as Amaya waved the huge diamond ring at their faces.“One of a kind,” she beamed. “Luc got it customised. Which means there's only one of this kind in the world.”“I wonder how much it cost,” Marie, another friend, said, leaning forward to check the ring.“Does it matter?” Amaya laughed. “All that matters is that Luc and I would get married very soon.”The two women nodded and took a sip of their tea.“What's in it?” Marie asked, placing the rim of her teacup below her nose. “It smells so good.”“Yeah, we got a new chef,” Amaya revealed. “An American chef.”“American?” Ginger repeated like it was something bitter, her facial expression flicking to disgust. “Why would you get an American chef? Their food is bland. Have you lost your taste buds?”“Be nice, Ginger,” Amaya scolded. “Elara is a young, talented girl and she's good. She cooks well.”“Yeah, some carrot soup,” Marie added.The women laughed.“She'

  • RUINED BY MY BOSS AND HIS STEPSON    Caged by him.

    Elara's POV.I tried to push him away, but every attempt felt like pushing against a thick wall.He laughed, as if he found my discomfort amusing. For someone like him, it was completely normal.“I didn't mean to do that,” I defended. “My hands just clicked on the screen.”“Really?” He grinned. “Your hands just took you to my page and went through all my photos, only to like the two personal ones deliberately taken to show people there were two sides of me.”Evil and cruel.Yeah, they were both lovely sides.I inhaled deeply and looked away.It was obvious I couldn't get him away from me, so I should just ignore him and pray he got bored and let me go.“Your hands really know how to work,” he whispered, his lips brushing against my skin.I swallowed the lump in my throat as heat passed through me, moving rapidly to parts that shouldn't even be active in this situation.I closed my eyes to try and steady my racing heart. Then I opened them and turned to him, my expression unreadable—I

  • RUINED BY MY BOSS AND HIS STEPSON    Burned by morning.

    ELARA'S POV.The next morning, I woke up to the sound of low, tense voices. They were speaking in French. I didn’t understand a single word, but I didn’t need to. The tension in their voices made me know that there was something wrong. Terribly wrong. I kept my eyes closed, pretending to still be
