Revenge In Silk Sheets Little Heart Skips
The night air was still and damp, the kind of evening that clung to your skin even in early spring. Daisy walked slowly down the quiet side street behind the café, hands stuffed into her coat pockets. She should have been wiping counters and balancing invoices. Instead she was walking in circles, trying to walk off the heaviness in her chest.She had thought getting out for a bit would clear her head, but it hadn’t. Her mind kept circling back to the same point: Arian.It had been weeks now, but it felt like it all happened yesterday. The bar’s neon sign, the sting of being stood up by her date, the shock of seeing him on the other side of the room. Thea was at home, fighting for her life and sanity but Daisy had gone out to “try dating” again. Pathetic. She had told herself she was ready, told herself she deserved someone. Then her date hadn’t shown up, and she’d been left with a poorly written apology and no promise for a second date. She had decided it was best to pay for an ent

Thea sat cross-legged on the couch in the furthest end of Daisy's cafe, balancing a mug of green tea between her palms.It had been weeks since she’d last been here and each time she visited, it felt more like home, a reminder of where she was coming from, where she started. “I still can’t believe it,” Daisy said, perched on the arm of the couch. “You actually had lunch with Sakisma Reed. The Sakisma Reed.”Thea grinned despite herself. “I know. I keep replaying it in my head. She was…nice. I thought she would be intimidating. I was nervous but she…listened. And she gave me her personal line.”Daisy’s eyes widened. “Stop! Are you serious? Her personal line?”Thea beamed, nodding earnestly. “Uhmuhm.” “Goodness. I heard only a handful of reporters have been able to score an interview with her! But she gave you her personal line?!”Thea ran a thumb along the edge of the mug. “I’m not trying to get my hopes up, but she asked my opinion about Balmero. And she seemed…impressed.”“You’ve e
Revenge In Silk Sheets Private Dinner
The VIP section of La Couronne was lit in soft music in the background, the chandeliers dimmed low enough to make the booths seem private but bright enough to pick out everything and everyone. It was one of those restaurants that didn’t list prices on the menu and didn’t take walk-ins. You came here to be unseen.Adam sat at the head of a mahogany table meant for eight, a half-empty glass of Bordeaux held loosely in one hand.To anyone looking in from the outside he was just another rich man having dinner. Inside the booth, the tension was thick enough to taste.Across from him sat the four board members he’d invited. They had all flown in under the radar, no press releases, no public schedule. The “Balmero Five,” as some insiders called them, now without Thea, were supposed to be united. Tonight it didn’t feel that way.Cyril Hartman, CFO, a lean man with thinning blond hair, adjusted his cufflinks and broke the silence first. “Mr Adam, the numbers don’t lie. We’re bleeding market s

Thea arrived at the student café fifteen minutes early. The weather was starting to feel warmer, light streamed through the glass walls, scattering across the rows of tables. Students were huddled in groups over laptops and steaming mugs, barely paying her any attention.Thea scanned the cafe, looking for the sitting area Reed had told her to meet her and when she did, she settled on the seat, hanging her bag on the arm of her chair. She exhaled, both hands on the table interlocked. Her palm felt sweaty and for some reason, her heart rate seemed to have picked up a little speed. “Ma'am…” Thea glanced up to see a waitress with a tray, a small smile on her face as she glanced down at her. “Good afternoon. Can I have your order?” “Actually, I am waiting for someone. I'll…” “I'll have a cup of iced frappe and croissant.” It was Sakisma Reed. She had walked in at exactly one-thirty. She moved like she was unaware of the room but somehow everyone shifted to make space for her. Crea

Thea paused at the main doors of Zean Business School. She didn't need to make eye contact with anyone to know she was a young woman with a bag on her shoulder and a hundred pairs of eyes on her back.It was her first day back since the court case. She hadn’t stepped into a classroom for weeks. She hadn’t helped Seth prepare but he told her it was best she stayed home until the case was done and over with. Now, with the headlines still fresh in everyone’s memory, she was back to finish her degree.The chatter in the lobby dipped when she entered. Heads turned. Phones tilted.“That’s her…” someone whispered.“Blackwood’s wife,” another voice said.“They won the case.” “What if Runes Sterling is really an asshole like it's been rumoured for months now?” “Hpw do you it's not a lie? She could be trying to get back at Runes for ending theory enagement..” “There was video proof at the court! Runes grabbed her first. See..” a girl replied, showing the doubting one a clip from the court th

Posy sat on the edge of her bed with her tablet still in her hand. The headline on the news app flashed again. “Court Rules in Seth Blackwood’s Favour. Billion Dollar Lawsuit Thrown Out.”Her thumb hovered over the screen. She read the lines twice more, as if they might change if she stared hard enough. They didn’t. Seth and Thea had won. Runes had lost. And with that loss, Posy’s careful plan began to wobble.She had hoped that this case would set Thea off, humiliate her but it only backfired and that alone, irritated her greatly She tossed the tablet onto the duvet and stood up. “No, no, no,” she muttered. She walked to the window and back. The sky outside was bright but she felt heavy. This wasn’t supposed to happen. Runes was supposed to crush Seth, embarrass Thea, and weaken the Blackwood Empire. Instead, the opposite had happened, and everyone on social media was laughing at Runes.Hell, what was she expecting? This is the Blackwood empire! It was a dumb idea to go against a
