Stephen’s POV

I saw the expression on everyone’s face change the moment I showed my card to the doctor.

The Doctor froze.

His eyes widened as he looked at the card, then back at me.

“The… the…ownership card?” he stammered, almost panicking.

    She must not die Pain was the first thing I felt when I opened my eyes.My head was resting against the airbag of my Ferrari which had already deflated. Smoke floated lightly inside the car, carrying the sharp smell of burnt rubber and chemicals.For a few seconds, I couldn’t move. My ears were ringing, and my vision was blurry.Then I heard voices.“Sir! Sir!”The car door opened suddenly, and hands grabbed me carefully.“My God… Are you okay, sir?” several voices asked at once.My escort team.They must have caught up with me and saw I was involved in an accident.They pulled me out of the car slowly, checking my body for injuries.I didn’t say a word instead I scanned the road carefully searching for something.Then when I saw it.The other car lying at the other end.It was badly damaged, worse than mine. The front was crushed like paper, and smoke was coming from the engine.I felt pissed immediately.“Which idiot drives like that?” I said irritated. I lifted my hand and signa

    Deja-vuStephen’s POV.I am not the kind of man to leave my meal halfway especially when I am still unsatisfied. But for the sake of the Cheng group, I was about to abandon one of the most sought-after delicacies in New York: ‘Becca Throats,’ the queen of throat games.Her nickname came from her infamous escapades of giving the best blow job in the city. It had taken me three and a half months, countless strings pulled, and a huge amount of money to book a session with her.But it was all worth it when my hand gripped her soft silky hair, pulling her forward, while my my eight inch rod was completely buried in her throat, choking the last breath out of her. She gagged and choked struggling for her breath but I was just getting started. After all she was Becca the throat goat who prided herself in her reputation, she even swore to die with a dick in her mouth. So It wouldn’t be a bad idea if mine killed her. She even signs agreement stating her clients should not be held responsi

    AWAKENING I woke up in an all-white room, my head ached as I struggled to remember what happened. I looked around wondering where I was. The walls were spotless, the bed was sparkling. The air humidified and purified, a cool breeze blew from a corner and spread across the whole room. This must be heaven I thought.You are awake Miss Summer” A stunning looking lady dressed in white approached me, her voice was soothing. She must be an angel I thought to myself as I stared at her in admiration, my eyes rolling with her movement. That is when I noticed; the machines beeping steadily beside me, the syringe inserted into my arm and the stethoscope around her neck.It all made sense now, I was in the hospital and the lady I thought was an angel is a doctor. but I was still clueless as to how I got here. I watched the doctor pressed a stethoscope to my chest, listening with rapt attention.“You’re doing really well,” she said, flashing a smile. “Honestly, it’s a miracle.”Pain flared up wh

    THE CRASH“Ryan!” I screamed, my voice breaking the silence. For a moment, nobody moved.He spun around with speed. The shock on his face, he had no idea I was there. He’d had his back to me the whole time.“Why are you back so early?” he stammered, scrambling to put on his clothes. Sweat dripped down his forehead.“Oh, the hag returns,” Sylvia blurted, rolling her eyes like I was just an annoying fly. She grabbed her clothes, hissing as she dressed reluctantly.My anger boiled over just watching her, I felt like setting her on fire. And Ryan just stood there and let her call me a hag, like I was nothing.“Get out!” I shouted at her, my chest heaving.Ryan stared at me, clearly shocked by my boldness. “Summer, can we just talk about this?” “Talk about what?” I tried to sound authoritative But Sylvia snorted, like she found the whole thing funny. She slipped closer to Ryan and hooked her arm through his.“Ryan, sweetheart,” she purred, “just get rid of the hag so we can finish what

    BETRAYAL I woke to the treacherous sound of my morning alarm. I never intended to sleep till dawn, I thought Ryan would come home and wake me to his sensational touch but I was wrong. I checked my phone for a call or text message but I didn’t receive any. I tried calling him. Straight to voicemail, every time. “You didn’t come home last night?” I texted him Maybe he had a good excuse, I told myself as I dragged myself through my morning routine. As hurt as I felt, I didn’t want to ruin whatever moments Ryan and I might still have. The way he treated me the previous night, so gentle, so calm, gave me butterflies. He had never been that soft with me before, especially during an argument.I caught myself smiling as I put on my makeup, imagining how different things could’ve been if his phone hadn’t rung. I even thought about making him dinner tonight, something intimate, something to set the mood.Suddenly, my phone buzzed.Edna!.I’d promised myself I wouldn’t let her get between me
