Stranded on an Island with Mr. CEO The moment of truth
Ariana's POVI spent the entire day cooped up in Maya’s apartment, feeling like a caged animal. I fixed myself some toast and eggs, but my appetite was fickle, swinging between ravenous and completely repulsed. To kill the time, I flipped through the channels. Most of the news stations were still running "Miracle on Pulau Sigamat" segments, so I scrolled past them as fast as I could. I couldn’t stand to see my own face or Nathaniel's under those flashing headlines.I eventually landed on a discovery channel showing a documentary about the deep ocean. The slow, rhythmic sounds of the water and the sight of whales gliding through the blue were the only things that calmed my nerves. It reminded me of the nights on the beach.Later, I caught an interview with a man talking about remote data entry jobs. He was explaining how working from home had saved his life after an injury. I leaned in, memorizing the names of the websites he mentioned. It wasn't a bad idea. I could use my laptop, stay
Stranded on an Island with Mr. CEO A sister's encouragement
Nathaniel's POV I walked out of the hospital wing in a complete haze. My security detail had finally caught up, their heavy footsteps echoing behind me, but I didn’t pay them any mind. I felt like I was moving through thick fog.I’ve never felt so lost. I knew I had the resources to find her—private investigators, tech experts, enough money to buy the city’s cooperation—but the question wasn't how, it was why. Why did she leave? After everything we shared on that island, did she really think she had to run from me? I would give anything just to feel the brush of her soft lips against mine again, to hear her laugh at my stiff attitude. I wondered, with a sharp pang in my chest, if I was really destined to be alone for the rest of my life.When I reached the main lobby, the quiet atmosphere was shattered by a loud, brutish voice. I stopped, my instincts clicking into place."I want to see the CCTV! Right now!" a man was shouting at the reception desk. He was a large, scary looking man
Stranded on an Island with Mr. CEO Hiding out
Ariana's POVMaya’s apartment felt smaller than I remembered. Or maybe it was just that I had spent the last two months with the horizon as my only wall. She led me into the guest room, fussing over the pillows and checking the window latch as if I were a delicate piece of glass."Maya, stop it," I teased, sitting on the edge of the mattress. "You’re acting like I’ve never been here before. I’ve crashed on this bed a dozen times after our Friday night shifts."Maya paused, her hands hovering over a blanket. She looked at me with a mix of pity and anxiety. "I know, Ari. I just... you’ve been through a lot. I want you to be comfortable.""Don't treat me like a guest," I said, my voice softening. "I’m not even staying long. Just until I can get my feet under me.""Where are you going to go?" Maya asked, sitting down beside me. "Aren't you going back to your apartment? Your lease isn't up, is it?"I shook my head, staring at my hands. They were still tan, the skin toughened by the island
Stranded on an Island with Mr. CEO She's gone
Nathaniel’s POVI stood with my back to my mahogany desk, staring out the floor-to-ceiling windows of my office. From the twenty-first floor, Manhattan looked like a meticulously designed toy set. It was magnificent, organized, and entirely too loud. Even through the soundproof glass, I felt like I could hear the city’s noise.We had crashed on a speck of land in the Sulu Sea—a small, volcanic island called Pulau Sigamat. It wasn't on most tourist maps, and even the local fishermen avoided it due to the unpredictable currents. Now, looking at the busyness of New York, I missed the green of the jungle so much it felt like a physical ache.Since my return, I had been buried in a mountain of paperwork. Deals had stalled, signatures were missing, and the board had been in a state of mild panic. I was behind on everything, but at least the empire was still standing.A soft knock at the door startled me. My new secretary, a woman named Lily who seemed to vibrate with nervous energy, peeked
Stranded on an Island with Mr. CEO The miracle
Ariana’s POVThe doctor stood there, tapping his pen against the clipboard while the nurse, Tina, adjusted the monitors. The doctor looked like a man who had seen a lot of strange things in a New York hospital."Miss Tokes," he started, his voice calm. "We’ve been monitoring your blood work closely since you arrived. Your hCG levels are significantly elevated."I blinked, my brain still feeling a little foggy from the exhaustion. "Elevated? What does that mean? Is it a side effect of the scorpion venom?"The doctor offered a small, professional smile. "No, it’s not the toxin. Elevated hCG levels usually mean one thing. You are very likely pregnant."The world suddenly stopped. My jaw dropped, and I stared at him in complete, agonizing shock. I waited for the punchline. I waited for him to tell me he had the wrong chart, that he was confusing me with the woman in the next room."Pregnant?" I whispered. The word felt heavy and impossible. "That’s... that’s not possible.""It’s a true mi
Stranded on an Island with Mr. CEO Meeting again
Ariana's POV"So, what happened?"My father stood at the foot of my bed, his arms crossed over his chest, looking at me like I was a car that had been returned with a dent in the bumper."Why didn't you say you were traveling somewhere via flight before you left?" he asked, his voice low and accusatory.I leaned back against the thin hospital pillows, feeling a wave of exhaustion. "I had no time to tell you in advance, Dad. It was an emergency thing. I had to leave for the firm.""Hmm," he grunted, his eyes narrowing. "And didn't you worry about what I was going to do? You went on that flight without sending me the money I was expecting. I have bills, Ariana. People were calling me."I felt a coldness settle in my chest, a strength I didn't know I had before the island. I looked him dead in the eye, my voice steady. "Didn't you worry when you heard I was on an aircraft that crashed? Didn't you worry when the news said I was missing and probably dead?"He blinked, visibly surprised tha
