Crandon’s POV

This week has actually been… good.

Mentally, physically, and professionally.

Since that whole mess in the office, I’ve stopped trying to avoid Carmen, and she’s stopped trying to avoid me. We give each other space, keep it professional, and it works. No tension. No walking on eggshells.

I didn’t realize how exhausting that was until it stopped.

I lean back in my chair, staring at my computer, thinking about how every single day this week I’ve had lunch with Tempest.

Every day.

Yes date rape is too much but the Crandon situation was a lot too and so was the assault on Sienna. These situations are real and unfortunate but they have a better endings. Thank you Shay.

You deserve it Crandon, Tester she's really into her. Date rape from the professor was too much.

    Maya's POV After dinner, we decided to take the kids to Dave & Buster's for a little while so they could burn off some energy and have some fun.We would've gone to Chuck E. Cheese, but it was getting late and they were already getting ready to close.The girls practically kidnapped Gabby the second we walked through the door, running off together while SJ wandered off to do his own thing.I slipped my arm through Shane's and smiled."Are you having a good night?" he asked.I laughed."I actually am. Even after the whole Stanley kerfuffle."He stopped walking and looked at me."Did you literally just use the word kerfuffle?""Yes," I said proudly. "I used the word kerfuffle."We both burst out laughing.The next hour flew by.I spent most of it dominating the giant Fruit Ninja game while Shane got way too competitive on some rope-jumping arcade game.For a little while, everything felt normal.No drama.No Stanley.No family stress.Just fun.By the time we checked the clock, though,

    Crandon's POVAs I ran around the building looking for Tempest, I couldn't find her anywhere.Not her office, or the conference rooms, or the break rooms.Nowhere.The uneasy feeling I'd had all morning was no longer a feeling. It was a full-blown alarm bell going off in my head.I turned to security."Pull up every camera. Right now."By then, Knox had joined me.A few minutes later, Kole showed up too.All three of us stood behind the security desk while Stuart pulled up the surveillance footage."Back it up to noon," I said.The footage rolled.There she was.Tempest leaving the building.Crossing the street.Walking into the café.My stomach tightened."Do you have exterior cameras access?" I asked.Stuart nodded."We have a long-range camera. Let me pull it up."A few seconds later, the view changed.We watched Tempest walk into the café.She approached the counter.Talked briefly with one of the employees.Then she raised a finger as if saying she'd be right back and headed towar

  • The Price of Peace: Book 3 In The No More Regrets Series   Eerie Feelings

    Crandon's POVAs Tempest and I made it to work on time, I couldn't shake the feeling that something was going to happen today.I didn't know what it was.It wasn't exactly a bad feeling, but there was something sitting in the pit of my stomach. An eerie sensation. Like the universe was holding its breath and waiting for something to happen.Maybe I was overthinking.Maybe I was just tired.Or maybe my instincts were trying to tell me something.As we stepped off the elevator, Tempest headed toward the associate floor while I continued toward mine. Before she left, I pulled her close and kissed her."Have a good day, okay?"She smiled."Okay. And remember, I'm picking up lunch from across the street. The stoves are still broken."I groaned."What the hell? That's ridiculous. Those stoves have been broken for weeks now.""I know.""I'm calling somebody."She laughed."Who?""The grandparents first. Then whoever owns that catering company."She shook her head."Okay, Mr. Executive.""I m

    Kole's POVBefore I hung up with Keisha, I finished telling her what happened with Maverick and Tiffany, she laughed so hard I thought she was going to lose her breath."My day started off really shitty," she said between laughs, "but hearing you talk about walking in on another employee having sex in their office just made my day ten times better."I chuckled and leaned back in my chair."I know it did, girl. Just let me know when the police call you. I'm probably going to check on you throughout the day anyway. I need to make sure you're okay."Her voice softened."Thank you, sweetie.""Always.""I'll talk to you later, honey bunny.""Okay. Love you.""Love you too."After hanging up, I decided to take a walk over to my brother's office. Hopefully he wasn't doing the same thing Maverick had been doing.Unlike earlier, I planned on knocking first.There was no telling with Knox and Sienna working on the same floor.I took the elevator down to the seventh floor and stepped out into th

    Kole's POV"Alright, my baby. Be good for Grandma."I smiled as I handed Mabel over to my grandfather."Granddad, what are you going to do today?"He passed Mabel to my grandmother and shrugged."Oh, I'm going to McDonald's, get my senior coffee, read the newspaper, and then come back home."I laughed."Do you do this every single morning?""Pretty much. I go in, talk to a couple of people who work there and some of the other senior citizens. They know me by now. Then I bring your grandmother back her senior coffee and her Egg McMuffin without the egg. That's our morning."I looked over at my grandmother."Wait a minute, Grandma."She glanced up from taking Mabel's jacket off."What?""Why do you cook a full breakfast every morning if Granddad brings you a breakfast sandwich and coffee every day?"She sighed dramatically."Because I have other people who come here. Sometimes my home care provider stops by. Sometimes Knox drops the kids off. Sometimes Kira drops the kids off. Sometimes

    Keisha's POV I pulled the sheet around myself as the alarm on my phone started vibrating across the nightstand.Buzz. Buzz. Buzz.Buzz. Buzz. Buzz. Buzz. Buzz.With a groan, I slammed my hand down on the screen and silenced it.Beside me, Kole rolled over and squinted."What time is it?"I blinked at the screen."I think it's 6:30. Give me fifteen more minutes."Kole immediately started laughing."I don't understand why you don't just set the alarm for 6:45."I frowned."What?""You set the alarm for 5:15 every single day. Then you snooze it all the way until 6:45. Just set it for 6:45."I sighed dramatically."No. I want to get up at 5:15.""But you never get up.""I be tired.""The reason you're tired is because you keep waking yourself up every fifteen minutes."I rolled my eyes and turned away from him.The worst part was that he was absolutely right.But I wasn't about to tell him that. So I pulled the blanket back up and closed my eyes. The second I got comfortable...Buzz. Buz
