SELENE'S POV

I can't stop shaking.

The walls of Damian's office feels like they're closing in on me, the bright lights are too harsh, the windows, exposing me to the prying eyes of the city below. Aurora's lingering perfume still filling the air, a scent that is both luxurious and suffocating, reminding me of the pain she has brought into my life.

"Aurora was right," I finally manage to choke out, my voice sounding fragile and raw. "I couldn't keep anything…Not Xavier, not my baby, not even m

  • The taste Of Revenge   JUST BEFORE THE VERDICT

    SELENE'S POV I wake up in Damian's penthouse, still fully dressed, the sunlight streaming through the windows. It's late afternoon, maybe early evening. I wonder how long I've been asleep. Damian enters the room with two cups of coffee, looking all casual in sweatpants and a t-shirt. He sits on the edge of the bed and hands me a cup, asking how I feel. I take a sip of the coffee he prepared, and it's just the way I like it. Xavier never really made coffee for me despite knowing how much I loved it. “It's nice… the coffee.” I admit. "What time is it?" "Six-thirty," Damian responds. "PM?" I clarify and he nods in agreement. Panic washes over me as I remember the medical board hearing is tomorrow and I haven't prepared for it in the slightest bit. “ Babe… the medical hearing is in two days from now…jeez. Hoydif I forget?” Damian's usual composed demeanor cracks “Wait… what! Fuck I'm sorry…it… I'm sorry, I just didn't think it was this close all this while.” He says as he curse

"I couldn't keep anything…Not Xavier, not my baby, not even my…"My voice breaks, the words too heavy to bear.Damian's voice cuts through the haze, grounding me in the present. "hush.” he replies, gesturing his index finger to his lips. “Baby, look at me." I can't, cause I'm afraid of what I'll see in his eyes, but Damian's hands gently cup my face, his touch feels like a lifeline in the midst of my turmoil. He forces me to meet his gaze, and I see great compassion instead of pity."She's wrong about everything.. babe, listen to me.” he says firmly."Is

  • The taste Of Revenge   PROMISES WRAPPED IN LIES

    "What document?" Her voice is barely a whisper.I let the silence stretch for a little while as I lean back against the window, letting the cold glass press against my spine. "A surgical authorization which she signed for Mr. Gordon. The one that has to do with medical malpractice…you know what I'm talking about. Well, let's say I need that as evidence against her. The patient currently still in coma needs justice…or don't you think…?”"That's fraud.""No, that's survival." I soften my voice "Do you know what it's like to watch someone you love die, Rubi? Don't you think they deserve justice too? She needs to be brought to book. Look, I know you might not understand me, well you don't need to. It's just that I swore I'd never see people who are powerless like that die…because people like Selene think they can get their way out of this situation.” A beautiful orchestrated lie for such a naive vulnerable girl…but a useful one though."If I do this…" She stops and there's a brief silen

  • The taste Of Revenge   THE PRICE OF A DAUGHTER

    AURORA'S POVThe phone rings three times before Rubi, Selene's stupid assistant, picks up. I resist the urge to rush. Desperation is a telltale sign of weakness. Instead, I maintain a deliberate pace, careful not to give away too much."Hello?" Rubi's voice is light, professional, and utterly harmless.I pause before speaking, allowing the silence to linger just long enough to pique her curiosity. "Rubi… I know you're smart…smart enough to know I am Aurora, soon to be Mrs Adrian.” I can almost hear the click of recognition as my name sinks in. "Ms. Adrian," she responds, her tone guarded."I won't take much of your time," I assure her, knowing full well I will take precisely as much as I need. "I just need a small clarification.""About…?" Rubi's hesitation is palpable."Selene," I reply, getting straight to the point.The silence that follows is pregnant with unspoken weight, heavy with the things Rubi is choosing not to say. "I'm not sure I'm allowed to…""I'm not asking you to br

  • The taste Of Revenge   A GLASS OF CHAMPAGNE BEFORE THE WAR

    AURORA'S POVThe door closes behind me with a soft click that obviously doesn’t match the noise inside my head.The mansion is dim, the skyline stretching wide beyond the floor-to-ceiling window, streaks of gold and red bleeding into the dark like the city is slowly unraveling. Everything is exactly how I left it. perfect and empty. Stopping in front of the mirror by the hallway, almost by instinct, I see the faint imprint of her hand on my cheek. “Selene, you'll pay dearly for this.” My fingers hover over it, feeling the ache beneath the skin and recalling the way she had looked at me with a sense of finality. It lingers, burning in my chest. What's even worse, Damien throwing me out like I'm some sort of trash long overdue for disposal.This isn't about Xavier, or his need for some sort or validation, neither is it about Selene, or her mistakes. This is about me and my goddamn foolishness. I had one job…just one. Go to his office, make my irresistible moves on him and make sure he

  • The taste Of Revenge   THE SUBTLE ART OF BREAKING BITCHES

    SELENE'S POVWhen I stand to get the door, I'm already irritated at this point."Mr. Wolfe?" The blonde lady's voice bleeds through the door, strained. "I'm terribly sorry about…" The door swings open before she finishes, and the air turns to ice.Aurora standing in the doorway like a ghost I can't exorcise. For a second, just one second, she freezes. She definitely did not expect to see me, well neither did I. Her perfect burgundy hair cascading over her shoulders. Her designer blazers hugging the curves that Xavier chose over mine. That smile…the one she wore at the welcome party while she was tearing my life into million shattered pieces…stretching across her face like a wound. This bitch!The shock in her face disappeared as soon as it came, replaced by the fake composure she's currently putting on. Jokes on her this time. I saw the crack.“Well, well, well, look who we have here,” she says lightly, walking into the room like she owns the air. “This is…unexpected.” She's dressed

  • The taste Of Revenge   THE MARRIAGE CONTRACT

    Jade was already waiting when I walked through the gym doors at 9:07 AM. I could swear that she was ready to murder me, bury me in broad daylight and still blame the sun for daring to shine. She was standing with both her arms folded, one brow climbing to her hair line in such a precise way that t

Or maybe scream, it was hard to tell which anymore.‎"So that's it? That's why we're…” I gestured vaguely at the car, the driver, the entire situation"...running?"
