The cigarette dangled lazily between her lips as she flipped from page to page, trying to read the words written on them.

It was useless.

Her eyes were heavy and sore, and she could barely see clearly anymore.

"Fuck." She muttered, taking a last puff from the cigarette before quenching it in the ashtray.

She tossed the papers on the table and ran her fingers through her hair.

Her eyes went to her table clock.

6:44pm.

"Renee should be arriving in-"

"Ma'am?"

"Punctual little bitch." She murmured as the assistant's heels clicked swiftly on her office floor, her hands bearing three heavy files.

Her eyes were still on the files as she approached her desk, her tight-fitting skirt hindering her from taking large steps.

Finally, she got to the desk and placed two on it as she flipped through the other.

"These are the daily records, Mrs. Moneau. Gregory at the finance department said he'd drop off his on his way out," she explained, flipping to the last page. "He said the company is expecting

    Thane swallowed and took a step further into the room.Lena didn't move-she couldn't.The trill on Sandy's face suddenly wiped away as the tension in the room dawned on her. She looked from Lena to Thane, then back to Lena, then back to Thane.This was not her scene, and she didn't plan to remain in it. She hurriedly closed the door behind Thane and disappeared to where she'd come.Lena's eyes never left Thane's, and she just remained on the sofa she was sitting on, her neck turned towards him, her heart thudding loudly in her chest.'What the fuck is this clown doing here?''Isn't he supposed to be in jail or something?'Thane took another step forward, and she finally lifted her back off the sofa.She should shout and scream and push him out of her house. But her reflexes seemed to have shut off, so all she did was stare. Thane, on the other hand, was too stunned to speak. When Dante had given him her address, and he started his car engine to drive down, he had no plan, no expect

    Beep!!!"Come on!" Lena groaned as the alarm blared relentlessly. She shut her eyes tightly and yanked the pillow over her head and turned the other way just as it stopped. But as she was about to fall back asleep, it began again."Shit!" she screamed, but before she could throw herself off the bed and toss it across the room, it went off abruptly.She frowned and slowly turned to where the clock stood, her eyes meeting a smiling face.The day was already so bright and the light seeped in through the dark blue curtains."Good morning ma'am." Sandy greeted, gently taking her hands off the silver clock.Lena sighed, partly out of tiredness and out of relief as she turned her head to the other side, her eyes still heavy with sleep. "You're already here." She murmured, feeling herself crawl into the dream world once more.Sandy just smiled and walked away from the bed. "I made your coffee." "I don't think I'll go to work today." Lena mumbled, her eyes still shut. Sandy flipped on the

    As soon as Dante opened the door, a thick cloud of smoke hit him, going straight to his nose and tightening his lungs. "Oh, come on." He said in between coughs, trying to wave the smoke away with his hand. "What the hell is going on in here?""Quit whining. It's just a little smoke." Thane muttered, taking another drag from his cigarette and blowing it out like he was proud of it.He was lazily swiveling in his chair, then he stopped facing his left-hand side where the shelves housing decade old books sat.Dante didn't argue. He just shut the door behind him and made his way through the hazy room lit but only a dim table lamp.His eyes scanned Thane's face, noticing his demeanor wasn't ecstatic, though he wasn't frowning.Plus, why the hell was he smoking this much? Something just had to be bothering him.'What's up this time?' he thought to himself."How'd the meeting go?" He asked, leaning back into his seat."Someone's trying to kill me." Dante remained calm, his face void of emo

    "Bring the car around." Thane ordered as he strapped on his wristwatch. This was his second meeting with another lawyer whom his lawyer had recommended, and he was ready to hire more if that was what it took to bring Anna down.He walked over to the body mirror when he was done to check himself out-something he'd formed as a habit, trying to make sure all of his drunken face was gone. He stared at his reflection, his expression serious with no atom of amusement, and let out a satisfied sigh.Still handsome. Still in control.In a few minutes, he was walking down the stairs, heading for the exit.Marie blocked him on the way. "Breakfast?" She asked with a small smile, which Thane knew all too well. Thane paused and turned to her, searching for a good excuse to skip. As he remembered her scolding him, saying he should stop skipping his meals."I'm in a rush, Marie. I'll eat while at the meeting." Marie's smile faded a bit, and she tilted her head. "You're sure?" Thane's lips curled

    Thane shut the door behind him and pressed his back against it as he downed the last of the liquid in his glass.A frown formed on his forehead as the liquid slid down his throat, burning along the way."That's enough work for today." He murmured to himself as she peeled himself from the door and staggered toward the half finished bottle at the foot of his unmade bed.He dropped noisily into the bed and reached for the bottle to pour himself another round. The sound of the liquid echoing round the house. Just as every sound did around the house for the past three days.The house now felt empty to him-incomplete.He took a sip and placed it on the ground before falling flat on the bed with his eyes to the ceiling.He felt too lazy to do anything these days as he felt no motivation to do them. Everything seemed pointless and unreasonable.And though deep down, a voice whispered for him to get off his ass and be a man, he couldn't fight the stronger force that made him cling onto the em
