SEREIA

I stood outside the glass doors of The Golden Lily staring at my own reflection. My fake leather coat was peeling off and my shoes looked chopped from years of wear. I knew I didn’t look like I belonged here in the rich side of New York.

This part wasn’t for people like me but it was either this or two thousand a month at the hotel, and that isn’t even enough for me plus I had a child to take care of.

I swallowed my fear and took a deep breath as I pushed the door to the boutique open. The door bell chimed softly signifying someone was here.

Inside the boutique everything was white and gold, wedding dresses hung on the walls looking like expensive clouds and I couldn’t help but admire their beautiful state.

My eyes met the eye of a woman with a sharp bun and even sharper eyes she watched me from across the counter with a look that told me I didn’t belong here.

“What do you want?” She asked in a clipped tone as she pulled her glasses up her nose.

“Good afternoon— I’m here—f-for.

  • The Sister He Never Chose    CHAPTER 13

    SEREIAI sat on the sidewalk, the rain coming down in a cold, steady rhythm. My hair was soaked and it’s stuck to my neck, my feet were now bare and so I felt colder than ever.The cold was nothing compared to the weight in my chest. I felt like a fool— like something Lucas and Selena had stepped on and they couldn’t even care less about me.My hands tightened around my phone as I thought about the humiliation I faced at the boutique and as I stared at my white knuckles that were wrapped around my phone. I regretted calling Valerian. Why would a man who barely knew me even come for me?I was just a girl who he had a one night stand and I trust he knew better than to entertain a weakling like me.He probably hadn't even meant the offer and it was just said to patronize me.I stood up from the wet sidewalk as I decided to find my way home when a black SUV turned the corner. It wasn’t just a car, it was a beast. It was sleek, and the windows were tinted so dark I couldn’t even see anythi

    SEREIAI have the perfect position for my dear sister.” Selena said her voice sweet and poisonous at the same time. “I’m going to be trying on a lot of dresses Martha.” Selena added. “And what better way to do this than to use my dearest sister.” She continued as she walked towards me placing her hands on my shoulder.“I need someone to help me in and out of them, someone who knows how to shut up and do what they are told.” Selena murmured and I stared at her my throat closing up as tears rose at the back of my eyes.The manager looked shocked as she spoke. “Miss Selena, I can help with that, this lady here hasn’t been trained for such.” Martha spoke patronizingly but Selena just rolled her eyes.“I don’t care Martha!” “It’s either this or I’m out.” Selena retorted a smirk heavy on her face. I turned towards Lucas, my eyes pleading with him.“Please don’t let her do this.” I whispered and he turned away blatantly ignoring me.The manager dragged me towards that corner of the boutiqu

    "What's going on here?"I looked up and my heart dropped, embarrassment was nothing short of what I felt right now, wheter it was from the rude lady that kept shouting at me or at the fact that the person standing here is none other than Valerian.His words were calm and controlled and it seemed to make everybody in the lobby stand still. He walked towards the place where I and the woman stood, his steps heavy and intentional.His appearance seeemed to make the woman’s posture shift. She stood more upright and pushed her chest out, as her cheeks turned red while she stared at him.The air definitely changed, and pressure settled low in my chest because of all the eyes on me, especially his.I looked up and Valerian stood a few steps away from me looking as imposing as ever and the bodyguard behind him didn’t seem to make things better.His expression didn't change when his eyes met mine.But something in his gaze sharpened."This girl," the woman started, pointing at me, "has been inc

    SEREIAMy work days always felt repetitive and today was not going to be different, I laid in bed staring at the ceiling as I contemplated if this was all worth it. The stress from work, the insults and most of all the pay that wasn’t even enough. I had woken up before my alarm,which was nothing new as it had been happening a lot lately, and for the past ten minutes I’ve been staring at my ceiling, thinking.My train of thought was interrupted by my alarm finally ringing and I took that as the cue to get up. I stood up from my bed, walking into the bathroom to freshen up and after I was done I walked to Liyana’s room.Knocking on the door I entered with a small smile. “Good morning love bug.” I said but Liyana just groaned as she rolled around on the bed.“Time for school dear.” I said tapping on her shoulder lightly to wake her up.She groaned. “Mamaaa I don’t want to go to school.”I smiled and shook my head. “Well I don’t want to go to work either baby.”That got her moving.

    SEREIAIt’s like my body had forgotten how to work, because I stood still my hands on the door handle, staring at the man in front of me.My chest felt like it was being squeezed and I suddenly forgot how to breathe. The man at the door didn’t move either he just started at me his face stoic and void of any emotions and I couldn’t tell if he was as shocked at me.It’s been five years.Five years since we met.Five years since we hooked up.And of course five years since he ghosted me.He looked taller now his hair slightly shorter. His face was much more sharper and older. He wore a black coat that fit him too well and made him look like a villian.He looked expensive, powerful and of course rigid.But his eyes— they were thesame light, cold, focused and they watched me like a predator watching its prey. His gaze ran over my body causing me to fiddle with my dress as I felt a little bit self conscious.After having Liyana my hips had widened and my breasts had grown a bit. I wasn’t ov
