Alex lounged on the living room couch, fresh out of the shower, dressed in nothing but his boxer shorts as he waited for Michael to return.

Even though he was worn out from looking after Jaxon, he wasn’t too tired to catch up on everything he’d missed during Michael’s absence. The TV buzzed in the background, keeping him company—until the knock he’d been waiting for finally came.

He jumped up and hurried to the door, heart pounding with anticipation. He’d missed Michael deeply and couldn’t wait to show him just how much.

The moment the door swung open, Michael threw his arms around Alex and pulled him into a tight hug.

“Oh!” Alex breathed, hugging him back just as eagerly. “You really missed me, huh?” he teased.

Michael chuckled, “More than you know,” he said, pressing a kiss to Alex’s lips. “I’ve got something to show you.”

Alex raised a curious brow, intrigue lighting up his face. He nodded, closing the door behind them as they walked hand-in-hand back to the couch.

    Michael was fast asleep, and Alex needed him to stay that way for at least another hour. He had somewhere to be—specifically, a visit to Idris. And the less Michael knew about it, the better.In under twenty minutes, Alex had showered, dressed, and slipped out of the house without a sound, leaving Michael undisturbed. As he stepped outside and made his way to the car, he dialed Jaxon.“Hey, boss,” he said, fastening his seatbelt with a click.“Alex, talk to me,” Jaxon replied on the other end.“I’m heading to that bastard’s bar. Idris,” Alex said through gritted teeth as he started the engine.“Idris? I thought we were choosing to let him be—for Isla’s sake,” Jaxon responded calmly.Alex shook his head. “This is different now. He crossed a line with Michael. I’m not letting that slide.”“What exactly do you plan on doing when you get there?” Jaxon asked, still composed.“I’m just going to talk some sense into him,” Alex replied. “And if I can help it, make sure he gets the hell out of

  • The CEO'S Long-Lost Love   Screw you, Idris

    Isla held the door open as Alex helped her wheel Jaxon into the house. He sat quietly in the chair, his expression unreadable.“Thanks so much, Alex. I’ve got it from here,” Isla said, slinging her bag over her shoulder as she took hold of the wheelchair.Alex gave a small nod and stepped back, letting her take over. “You should head home now, Alex. We’ll talk later,” Jaxon said, turning his head to look at him.Alex offered a faint smile. “Take care of yourself, boss,” he replied, dipping his head slightly before turning to go.“Alex?” Jaxon called after him. Alex paused and looked back. “Thank you,” Jaxon added.Alex smiled. “Anytime,” he said with a nod, then stepped out the door.“Jaxon!” a familiar voice called from the living room.He glanced up, surprised. “Maggie?” he frowned. “What are you doing here?”“What am I doing here?” she echoed incredulously. “You got shot, and I had to hear about it after the fact—and you're asking me that?”Isla let out a soft laugh and walked ov

  • The CEO'S Long-Lost Love   The cycle

    Isla slipped quietly into the room, her eyes immediately locking onto Jaxon’s, which were barely open.“Hey,” she whispered gently.Slowly, Jaxon turned his head toward her. “Isla,” he murmured, weakly lifting his hand. She reached out and clasped it without hesitation, sinking into the chair beside his bed. She brought his hand to her lips, kissing it softly as her eyes brimmed with emotion.“How are you feeling?” she asked, her voice trembling as tears rolled freely down her cheeks.Jaxon gazed at her intently, though his strength was fading. “Come closer,” he murmured. She leaned in without hesitation, tilting her ear toward his mouth.To her surprise, Jaxon summoned the strength to lift himself just enough to press a tender kiss to her cheek. “It’s not your fault,” he whispered, and Isla squeezed her eyes shut, her tears flowing even harder. She turned her face to look at him, her heart breaking.“You ran because you were scared… I could never blame you for that,” he murmured, his

    Ivy was seated in the living room, nursing her baby, when her phone began to ring. She reached over to the couch, grabbed it, and saw her mother’s name flashing on the screen. With a sigh, she answered and switched to speaker.“Hey, Mom,” she greeted, her tone flat and unbothered.“They found your sister, Ivy!” her mother’s voice burst through the speaker, trembling with excitement.Ivy rolled her eyes, clearly unimpressed. “And let me guess... was she with Jeremy?”“Jeremy?” her mother repeated, confused. “Why would he be with her? Isla was kidnapped!”“Or she ran off with my husband,” Ivy replied dryly.Her mother gasped. “What are you even talking about, Ivy? I called thinking you'd be happy your sister’s been found, and this is the reaction I get? Don’t you even want to know how she is?”“I’m sure she’s fine,” Ivy muttered. “She just wants attention, and I’m not giving her any.”Before her mother could respond, the front door creaked open. Ivy looked up, her brows lifting in surp

  • The CEO'S Long-Lost Love   Photo Booth

    Idris pulled up at the bus stop where Michael had told him to meet for their date. For good reason, Michael had no intention of letting Idris anywhere near his apartment.Truth be told, he was hoping this would be the last time he ever had to see or speak to him again.“Pim Pim.” A car horn sounded, snapping Michael out of his thoughts. He looked up from his phone to see Idris parked right in front of him, grinning and waving excitedly.Michael forced a smile and got up from the bench, making his way to the car. He opened the door and slid into the passenger seat."Sorry for keeping you waiting," Idris said warmly, reaching out to take Michael’s hand.Michael glanced down at their hands and subtly pulled away, shaking his head slightly. “It’s fine. I just got here too,” he replied. Idris gave a small nod, his brows knitting together in concern.“You okay?” he asked, sensing that something was off.Michael shifted in his seat, meeting his gaze with a reassuring smile. “Yeah, of course.

    Bianchi began to pace restlessly in front of Isla as he expected his men. Isla, who was still extreme weak, seemed to have hope seeing her capturer disoriented. She let out a smirk and flicked her brows. “I told you Jaxon would find you and kill you.” She muttered admist laughter, loud enough for him to hear. “Shut the fuck up!” Bianchi growled as he stormed closer to the chair where she was tied, his shivering finger pointing to her face. Isla kept her smirk, refusing to look away in fear. “You know…” he whispered, a smirk curling up the side of his lips. “I thought I would just have to kill one girl to get what I want, but…” he pulled out his gun from his back and traced it on Isla’s face, causing her breath to etch. “...why not add her bestfriend to make things more fun?” He grinned, and Isla’s heart skipped a beat. The smirk on her face instantly disappeared. “What are you talking about?” She asked with gritted teeth, and Bianchi let out an annoying laugh as he moved away fro

  • The CEO'S Long-Lost Love   Poster

    Sophie wandered the streets, tears brimming in her eyes, clutching posters of Isla. Bold red letters screamed “MISSING” above Isla’s picture, and beneath it, a ten-thousand-euro reward.She moved from one wall to the next, plastering the posters wherever she could, stopping passersby to ask if they had seen her.She had called and texted Isla multiple times, but got no response. She even tried Jaxon’s number, but for some reason, he wasn’t answering either.When she finally got through to Ray, he confirmed the worst—Isla was missing. The words hit Sophie like a brick. Panic surged through her. She wanted to report it to the police immediately, but Ray stopped her, assuring her that they were already handling it.Still, Sophie couldn’t stand feeling helpless. Sitting back and doing nothing while her best friend was out there—possibly in danger—wasn’t an option. So, she took to the streets, hoping that someone, anyone, might recognize Isla from the posters.Just as she was showing anoth

    “Please… let me go,” Jeremy murmured as one of Jaxon’s men stepped into the room, the door creaking open. He carried a tray of food in one hand, a gun steady in the other.“I just need to speak to Jaxon Waverly. Please, I’m begging you,” Jeremy pleaded, his voice cracking. “I’ve got a wife and a kid waiting for me. I’ve been gone for days, they’ll be losing their minds by now. Please.”But the man said nothing. He crouched and set the tray on the floor, his gun never straying from Jeremy’s face.“Just let me talk to him. One phone call,” Jeremy said, his voice trembling now. “I swear, he’s probably forgotten I’m even still here. I’ve learnt my lesson. I just, look, my wounds are getting worse. If they don’t get treated properly, I’m gonna die from infection. Please, man.”Still, no response. The guard turned on his heel and walked out, unfazed, as if Jeremy hadn’t spoken at all.“Please!” Jeremy shouted, stumbling up from the narrow bed squeezed into the cramped room. He rushed to the
