Sophie

Beatrice gave me a tour of the rooftop pool, the Sky Bar, the work pods and every angle that people would refer to as the “chill zone” here in WeillTech.

I can’t even lie or deny the fact that this place is unbelievably luxurious. Clearly no expense has been spared at WeillTech.

She doesn’t slow down as we walk, heels clicking confidently against the marble floors.

“Where’s Alexander?” I blurted out.

Shouldn’t he be around here? This is like the third floor and there’s been no sigh o

    Alexander When I wake up, I’m the only one in the bed. I stretched one hand out, feeling the cool fabric where Sophie should be. There’s no way on earth she’d be at work this early. I turned but groaned at the sensation from my sore knuckles. Both the main and the memories of how I ended up with injuries came back. After leaving Celine’s, I went to punch that bag. A glance at the clock on the bedside table tells me it’s just past three a.m.I said it— it’s still very much early. Sophie probably went downstairs, or to the kitchen, or maybe the bathroom. I flipped onto my back, trying to fall back asleep but I just couldn’t. Eventually, I gave up, climbed out of bed and pulled on a pair of athletic shorts. I took the hallway down and there she was.The lights are on in the kitchen and the door leading out to the patio and pool is ajar. As soon as I stepped outside, I saw her sprawled out on one of the chairs, holding a wineglass in one hand and paging through a paperback with the

    Alexander I stepped outside with Malik, the door swinging shut behind us and sealing off the noise, the music, the careless laughter we’d left inside. The night wrapped around us, cool and sharp, and for a moment I wished I’d stayed indoors where things were still simple, when questions hadn’t yet learned how to breathe. Malik leaned against the railing, completely at ease, like he wasn’t about to dismiss my sense of reality with a few sentences.“My intel confirmed it,” he said, smoke curling from his mouth. “The kid’s been with Celine since the day she was born. There are even hospital photos. Celine on the bed. Newborn in her arms.”I shook my head immediately. “Pictures can be staged. You know that. People fake things all the time.”He said it flatly, confidently, like a man reciting facts that no longer surprised him. My stomach tightened as he went on, explaining that they were photographs too. Celine on a hospital bed. White sheets. Harsh lights. Her face exhausted in a way

    Sophie Finish up, we need to talk. My heart hammered as I dried my body. After such a powerful torrent, I don't think I'd have it in me to argue with Alex.He hasn't said anything regarding the child and I'm hoping he doesn't. I don't want him asking who the child’s father is because I honestly cannot answer that.Once I finished applying the lotion on my body, I grabbed a shirt and wore it. I grabbed my laptop too because I have some work that I still need to finish up. I let out a deep sigh. My body kind of aches from all that spreading but it’s cool. I really don’t mind the pleasurable pain. Just as I stepped out of the room, the permeating and delicious scent of smoky salmon, lemon, and herbs hit me.Alex is right there at the counter, setting plates of food next to two glasses of water, each garnished with a lime wedge.“How was your bath?” he asked with a grin.“Quick,” I mumbled. I wasn't disturbed. “I hope you’re hungry.”“What do you think you're doing?” I waved at the d

    SophieIs Alexander avoiding me?I had expected to see him at the office but he was nowhere to be found. I’m exhausted when I get back to Alexander’s apartment. It was a long day at the office, and I hadn’t eaten since Beatrice shared her chicken club sandwich with me earlier this afternoon.Crazy thing is I'm not hungry. I'm thinking… about what Celine said. I know that girl looks like me… same eyes, same face but that's not enough is it? I need to brush and get ready for bed. I took my time brushing my teeth in the en suite bathroom and stared at myself in the mirror. I ran my finger across my neck, reminiscing his hands around my neck. My nipples tightened as I stripped off my T-shirt and underwear to get into the shower. My skin reddened with the thoughts.No man but Alexander could irk me so much and turn me on at the same time. He pushed me so close to the brink of my emotions.I turned on the water and let the water droplets run over my head until they were so hot, they ne

    SophieI woke up slowly, very reluctant to open my eyes. Everything felt at ease here and that was all I needed.Then I remembered where I was.I was on the same bed with Eve.That realization came first, before anything else. Before work. Before Alexander. Before the name Weillman sitting on my shoulders like a borrowed coat.I turned my head slightly and looked at her.She was still asleep, sprawled beside me like she owned the bed. One leg was thrown over the blanket, one arm tucked under her cheek, her lips parted just a little as she breathed, and for a moment, everything else disappeared.I just stared at her.I didn’t know how long I would stay that way. Long enough for my chest to ache. Long enough for the truth I carried to press against my ribs.If only you knew, I thought.If only I could tell you that I wasn’t just your auntie.If only I could tell you that you came from me.That I carried you. That I cried for you. That I chose silence because I thought it would protect y

    SophieDamn it. I took one deep breath and tucked my hair behind my ear. The moment I walked back in, Celine turned fully toward me, eyes sharp, drink forgotten in her hand. The music was still playing, people were laughing, kids were running around with balloons, but it felt like everything else faded into the background the second her gaze locked onto mine.“What was that about?” she asked. “Is everything okay?”I blinked, buying myself a second. “What was what?”She gave a dry laugh. “Don’t insult me. I know what I saw.”“I’m not,” I said lightly. “I just don’t know what you mean.”“You went outside to get Eve’s gift,” she said slowly, like she was explaining something to a child. “You came back looking like you’d seen a ghost.”“I was just surprised,” I said. “That’s all.”“Surprised enough to forget how to breathe?” she asked.I shrugged. “It was cold outside.”She narrowed her eyes. “Sophie.”I sighed. “Celine.”She leaned closer. “I heard a car.”My stomach tightened. “Okay?”
