A CHALLENGE.

SIENNA’S POV.

Although he had hung up the call on me, what better way to make an announcement if not show up when a predator least expected his prey to?

“Are you sure about this, Sienna? You’re risking it all already.” Harper spoke softly as if she was being careful. I stopped in the middle of packing my clothing into my suitcase as I straightened up and took my hands to rest upon my chest while my eyes rested on her face.

She shrugged and after some silence, Harper walked up to me with concern lacing on every part of her face as she patted my hands with hers gently when I spoke jokingly yet taunting.

“See who asked me to move in with Julian just some hours ago.” I mouthed with my chin tight and brow furrowed as I didn’t break any contact with her eyes.

“No babe. This is so unexpected and different.” she groaned in defence as she pulled away from me gently while raising my head with a finger to my jaw so our eyes met.

Her eyes stayed wandering, soft yet daring and r

    THE GALASIENNA’S POVA cold air fanned against my skin as I swallowed dryly and from the way he stared at me, it felt like taking back the daring words I had spilled and that I just had to turn back or find an excuse away from those words. But I stood firm and rigid enough that I saw his eyes waver with a flicker in his eyes. I was daring and he — as he rose from the couch and found his feet meeting the cold marble floor, I perceived the challenge. Yet…It was only one person who needed to winI formed my feminine hands into a promising fist as I could read the fragile strength it had in them. He hissed and I smirked. It was alright, he could just look down against a queen and think it was the usual pawn and always, meanwhile - it had all changed. I stared at his back with disdain as his presence faded from my sight. I let my lips curl into a slow crawling smirk as my mind drifted to Nathaniel. That night I had spent at his home felt so peaceful except the rigidity that always

    BY MY RULES. JULIAN’S POV"Hello, Sienna," My cold voice cuts through the phone, I put both my hands to my ear as I gripped the phone tighter as I felt my veins threaten to shoot out of my arms.Silence reigned for a moment as none of us spoke except from the stillness of the house and the air wave that passed while I stood by the window that seemed as if it fell like a rhythm to the nervousness I could feel despite breathing rigid as I looked out like I expected something from the scenery outdoor. I took out my hands from the phone after I had found my composed self as I aided it to my pocket as I let out a cold breath before speaking. "I want you to come back home. I am going to personally take care of the investors. I don't want you bothering about these things. Just... tell me your location and I'll send a driver to come pick you." I said as if in a rush or maybe I was. I could not keep my calm anymore and if I had to entice her with somethings, I’d do it but with the deafeni

    SIENNA’S POVI took my hands to my mouth as I muffled my tears calling unto Harper who didn't cut off the hug as she pulled me in closer and tighter letting me place my head onto her shoulders as she spoke to me in comfort. “Cry all you want, baby.” her voice came off calm and soft spoken as always and although it was meant to keep me from crying, my broken voice echoed in the apartment as tears kept slipping down my eyeballs. They soothe me just as they ought to and did. I had stopped crying that the only thing that reigned in the house was my mumbling stomach and sniffing the tears I had shed back in. My eyes darted the room as I watched her figure pace the room for a while as she kept cursing out. “Those motherfuckers really have no idea what their prey goes through, do they?” although it sounded like a question, it was one not to respond to. And with her fist pressed tight to her chin like the one she would punch to the jaw was just right around when she spoke the unbelievable

    CHASING HER BACK. JULIAN’S POV“You’re pregnant.” I muttered while standing up to meet her level and still ended up staggering backwards as she walked closer to my reach and leaned in for a while. A wave of heat rushed through my body as the tension thickened with secrets but she stayed not saying anything, yet she remained still with her breath fanning against my face as she replied nonchalantly. “Yes” she replied as my grip on the briefcase tightened, my brain spiraled in a daze as surprise took a hold of me like some joke and without warning, yet even though I had always felt that she was capable of just anything, my shoulders tensed at this realization or maybe not?Was this a result of one of those many nights? Confusion took a stance within me as I stared at my eyes filled with disbelief and my chest? It tightened with a feeling of betrayal that I could feel a glint of sadness fall at the edge of my lips. But I was getting to the root of things. I raised my eyes to meet her

    A RISING QUEEN.SIENNA'S POVI walked into Harper's apartment lazily as I closed the door softly behind me before taking off my coat and folded it as I laid it onto the couch. I groaned lazily as I threw my bag to the end of the bed and tucked myself in with a blanket over my head.All of a sudden, the cold air was not biting through my skin; instead, it was a rush of heat. Hot, sweaty and uncomfortable yet I could not raise the blanket away from me.Sweat clouded my face and neck that I could feel them even in my palms and feet, my body shivered for no reasons per say and when I forced myself to sit upright even though I saw fever already knocking in — first thing I did was drag in my bag as I scrolled the online space.My mouth opened wide, there was me and Nathaniel in Harper's apartment and I in his home. My body stiffened as I stared at the photos that were taken of us — the angles well proportioned and anyone could tell it was no fake photos or even photoshopped.I threw my pho

    THE OUTBURST ( I AM PREGNANT!)SIENNA'S POV.I walked into my father's office with a shrug on my shoulders as meeting at his office after every board meeting has become constant and an almost everyday thing to do. I was in a well tailored carton colored suit with a loafer on my leg as I strode down his office floor. He unlocked the door and there it was — revealing his majestic office. I let a smirk crawl into my face as I rolled my eyes before sitting down. “The company is burning at a loss and we'd need you in for that.“ Now he knows to accept there's nothing to do without me. He should have given it unto Julian or even Elliot and his convoy, Dominic. Why call me now that the shareholders were turning against him?And there was just one person. One person to put these whole things in order. I raised my head to look at him as my gaze fell on his face while darting to his lips and then he blurted out..“Mr Philips.“I flunked my eyes open, wide in surprise. 'The same man Julian

    THE GAME CHANGES.JULIAN’S POVI was seated at my desk when my Intel walked in, taking permission to come in and I nodded slightly like he could have seen me before I allowed with a groan. It was supposed to be the usual daily reports about work and spending or even Dominic’s outings since a secret on him had just been known even though I fought so hard not to believe it. I groaned lazily just again as if to send him out of the office but he shifted uncomfortably, I saw hesitation flicker at the end of his right eye. Something was wrong, yet I wouldn't bat an eyelid until I knew what it was. He spoke just immediately, as if following a cue, I looked up to match his gaze and meet attention when his voice rang in my ears like a joke yet his words were well calculated and spoken to clarity and much certainty yet I shook my head in disagreement, my face laced with disbelief. “He couldn’t have been right about this, yeah?” I said within me as if finding means to regard my insecurities
