The Seductress CHAPTER THIRTEEN
Vanessa’s POVI was finally trying to have my rest after a long and stressful evening. I came out of the shower with my bathrobe, taking out a fresh towel from the cabinet to dry my hair as I stared at the nightlife from the balcony, drinking champagne straight from the bottle.“They all seem happy” I said aloud followed by a long sigh, watching from the balcony as people moved freely and enjoyed themselves even though it was close to midnight.Dropping the unfinished bottle of wine on the credenza, dragged my entire body to the bed as I crawled my drunk self to the middle, stretched out both my arms and legs to the north/south, east/west respectively of the bed, while my body was stayed at the center, I stared up to the ceiling counting sheep before I got bored and closed my eyes to sleep.I drank not because I wanted to, the problem was that my nightmare will haunt me if I tried sleeping normally. I dread having to wake up each night like that. Two days ago was the same but when I h
The Seductress Phase 2: Getting a job
The next morning already screamed violence as I hummed a sound while I bathe…… won’t tell you what song, could be wrecking ball though.I wore a simple red dress, don’t want to outshine the bride, and by bride I mean Carlos. Poor poor Carlos, he should be going crazy by now having to deal with his personal assistant resignation and all.When I arrived at the company I followed the yellow brick road to the wizard castle, just kidding, I went into elevator and stopped at his office floor. The personal assistant chair was empty but her desk wasn’t, which only means one thing, Danger has done his job…… let’s leave the other option for now, no negativity please.Think about the dramatic way I opened the door to Carlos office, the smile that appeared on my face having to see how distressed he was, his table filled with different files, he is too busy that he isn’t even aware of my presence, how pleasant is that? This is what I call a mission complete.Danger will surely get his reward for t
The Seductress CHAPTER FIFTEEN
Today which was Sunday, I thought I needed to pay my visit to someone who has been special to me. Since I had return all I did was focus on my revenge plan but I never once visited her to learn whether that was what she wanted.I know that I needed to find out what exactly caused the explosion that day, was it intentional or just a mere accident, there has to be something behind it because the case was closed too early and my body was never found.I don’t exactly have to point out people I believe might have been involved because they may not have actually done anything like that.Standing before my final resting place made me want to cry, this was were the house Carlos and I built our first home together, now it was a structure that held my memorial on. The whole building was gone with the flames and the ruins had been vanquished.At the memorial ground, names of the people who died in the fire were written on different stones, I read through each and everyone of them and had only my

I wasn’t kidding when I said I plan on making an entrance today, this was a chance I have been given and wasn’t planning on throwing it away. There were ways that I plan on winning Carlos back to my side and making Laura feel what I felt but I decided to go subtle but in a harsher form not obvious to the eyes.I wore a white shirt and buttoned it down below my neckline, so it didn’t expose my boobs but sent a clear message. It was my skirt that did the most talking, though it wasn’t short it was tight and hugged my ass perfectly and then that split at the side of the skirt, showing off those fresh legs of mine.Too bad all of this will be hidden behind a desk until I am called to his office.When I arrived at the office it was quite early, so I used that time to arrange my desk and look into schedule which was formerly handled my his secretary, made a couple of calls and reminded them about the meetings.When I was done with all of that, he finally came. I stood up immediately, pullin
The Seductress The Mole
I was quick to arrange everything back as it was, though not having much time to think about where I could hide or what to say if caught. I still did not know who had walked in but there was a ninety-nine percent chance it was Carlos.Looking at the room and also weighing the minutes before Carlos get to this table, I know my only option was to hide under the desk I was close to----- it may seem like today was desk day.For some reason I just wasn’t afraid. I held my breathe as I leaned closer under the desk after seeing the person’s shoes, my legs were bent and my head, slanted in a bad manner, it was an uncomfortable position to be in but I managed since getting caught was no longer an option.I watched Carlos footsteps as it was only his shoes I could see, his shoes were different from the ones he always wear when we got married, I guess he upgraded his wardrobe with my money.Then again, there is also the prenuptial agreement at his drawer, if he indeed signed that without me know

Days went by so quickly and the only progress I could make was with my work, I know I was impressing him but he was yet to let me know. Carlos too had been busy, he barely even looked at me for a second and I was his secretary.How would I be able to charm him when he won’t even look at me, it was tiring to be honest and painful because I know I was doing the best I could.I have been nice and chosen not to keep my head up high because I know my hus…. I mean Carlos doesn’t like proud people, if not I would have gone the other route which needed me to be rude at all times, yet gorgeous.Besides I haven’t gotten used to the role I was playing, also do not want to rush things at the same time.“Carl….” I got up to call for his attention but he wasted no time out as he return back to his office, it’s the same everyday, with this new launch I don’t think he is going to ever notice me and my time was running out.The only person who was able to notice me was this frequent visitor who was co

When the short hand of the clock touches eleven and the long hand was at the stroke of twelve, I packed my bag and got ready for the time Carlos will leave. I wasn’t doing anything peculiar before and even now.Carlos wasted no time coming out as he looked shocked to see that I was still at the office, I explained to him that I was just about to leave but forgot something…… him.Things weren’t going according to plan as I had wanted but it is fine which is why you should always have a back up. Whilst he went to pick up his car from the parking area, I waited at the front of the company trying to holler for a cab to pick me up, of which I was trying so hard.I stood out in the cold still waiting for his car to pass by and then he would offer me a ride and I would inexcusably accept, which he knows I have turned down several times that he offered.Today was different, it was too risky for me to go home by myself and my phone was broken beyond repairs for me to order for an Uber, apparen

I didn’t know when we arrived at his mansion as I had fallen asleep in the car, Carlos was right about me needing some rest. As promised, he woke me up and waited till I was wide awake before helping me out of the car. He was acting like I was a sick patient or something, at least it was working in my favor so I shouldn’t complain.When we both got the doorstep, Laura had been waiting for us even as the time was way past midnight, I figured Carlos must have called and told her everything while I was asleep.I tried to look pitiful and tiresome as Laura pulls me into a hug, I still do not like her close to me not to think of her touching me but I couldn’t resist and just played along. Just like Carlos had asked if I was alright several times, Laura had done the same.I don’t understand what their problem but I am sure I made it clear that I was fine, maybe they just love to get into people’s good books all the time.Laura asks if I had anything to eat and that she could ask their live-
