The private elevator to Rune’s penthouse opened with a soft chime, but the sound was swallowed by the apartment’s cavernous quiet. It's been weeks since the lawsuit and Runes was yet to bring himself to ever face the public again. Now he stopped by the office every other day like today and left before closing hours.

He had even had to propose to Posy again and move the wedding dates in a bid to save his company weeks ago and he couldn't be more furious.

The moment the elevator doors chimed, his eyes went over to the door and he froze.

“Yumi.”

Yumi didn’t pause to take in how dark and disorganised the apartment looked. Her heels struck the marble like gunshots as she crossed the threshold, the door sliding shut behind her

She had rehearsed this moment the whole ride up: how she would walk in, how she would say the words, how she would slap him hard across the face for taking her for a fool! But her pulse was a drum in her ears now, and her palms were damp.

  • Revenge In Silk Sheets   Wedding Bells

    Thea stood before the full-length mirror, her reflection gleaming back at her in soft ivory silk. The maid of honour's dress hugged her curves, completely different from the oversized dress Posy had sent over to her. She had to stop by a dressmaker's shop to resize it just so it could fit better. Posy's pettiness sure knew no bounds! Its neckline was a sweetheart cut and the slit along her thigh daring enough to make Seth lose his mind. She tilted her head, studying herself. She was Thea Balmero, the golden child. How could she have lived her life the way she did in the past knowing she was this intelligent and beautiful?Seth leaned against the doorway, hands buried in the pockets of his black tuxedo. His gaze roamed over her body, his expression hooded.Thea knew those eyes..and what those hands could do to her. “You look… dangerous,” he said finally, a smile tugging at his lips though his voice held no humor.Thea’s mouth curved. “Get your mind out of the gutter Mr Seth.”He pu

  • Revenge In Silk Sheets   Players, Take Your Spot

    The café was quiet, except for the low hum of the fridge behind the counter and the tick of the wall clock. Daisy had closed early for the evening, pulling the blinds halfway down and flipping the Closed sign, even though they technically had another hour before last orders. It wasn’t just any night.The three women sat at the corner table near the window, leaning forward like gamblers waiting on the turn of a card.On the table between them lay Thea’s phone, face-up, black screen reflecting their expectant faces.“What if she doesn't call?” Clara asked, chewing her lower lip.Thea shook her head, eyes fixed on the device as if sheer willpower might summon the notification. “She’ll call.”“She won’t,” Daisy said, folding her arms. Clara sighed. “I know I shouldn't say this but…I don't think Posy will call you, Ms Thea.” “Posy wouldn’t give you the satisfaction of standing beside her in a white dress. She’s not dumb enough to risk letting you into her fairytale ending.”“She’s spite

  • Revenge In Silk Sheets   Bridal Shower #2

    Thea stood in front of the full-length mirror in the room, hands smoothing down the silk of the dress. It was the kind of dress that made people forget their own names: a soft champagne-gold slip cut on the bias, hugging her waist and flaring just enough at the thighs to hint at movement. The hem ended scandalously high, grazing the middle of her thighs; one wrong step and it might flash more legs than polite society would allow. The neckline was a plunging V held by two delicate straps that crossed over her shoulders. Her hair, swept up into a loose knot, exposed the elegant curve of her neck. A single diamond drop earring glinted against her skin when she moved.Behind her, Seth leaned in the doorway, tie loosened, jacket over one arm. He had been ready for ten minutes, but he hadn’t stopped looking at her. All of this started when she got an invitation to Posy's bridal shower in the mail. It was unexpected and she knew almost immediately that this was a set up. But she shocked hi

    Bass throbbed through the club’s walls like a heartbeat, slow and heavy. The private booth in the far corner was set back behind a velvet curtain; inside, the light was warmer. Bottles of champagne sweated on the low table between bowls of olives, chips, and lobster. A half-empty platter of sushi teetered dangerously close to the edge.Camila, perched cross-legged on the leather seat, lifted her phone high for another selfie. Seraphine leaned in, mouth open in a playful scream, while Yumi sat a little apart, swirling her drink and watching the dance floor below. In the flicker of neon her face was unreadable.It's been ages since she's seen Thea in school or ran into her. Runes had so much going on for him and he barely even had time for her now. Was it all in her head? That Thea might know something? Yolanda sat opposite them, back straight, fingers curled around a glass she’d barely touched. She should have been buzzing like the others; the DJ was a friend of hers, the drinks we

  • Revenge In Silk Sheets   The Man Named Kent

    Thea arrived at the café before noon. The same café where she’d sat across from Reed a few days ago. She settled in the same spot as the last time, placing her bag on the table gently.The last time she was here, her nerves were drumming dangerously in her ears and now? She was relatively calm. Maybe it's just Seth's magic touch? Well, he made it his life mission to exhaust her last night and he did. She almost didn't make it here on time. Even now, her knees seem to buckle every now and then.Hopefully nobody notices.Thea glanced out the window, today the windows glimmered with light; inside, the smell of roasted beans hung heavy in the air. “Good day ma'am. Can I get your order?” Thea made her order and her attention returned back to her phone. She had called Reed the night before, finally using the card she had handed her the first time they met. We need to meet. She had said firmly and Reed had replied with her usual calm, suggesting they talk in the same cafe.The door chi
