“How’s it going over there? Need any help with that file?”She turned her head, her hair falling softly over one shoulder.“It’s okay. I’m just organizing the client notes. But… um, this one has a lot of details. Do you want me to prioritize the urgent ones?”I stood up and walked over, leaning over her shoulder to look at the screen.The scent of her shampoo filled the air, and I had to remind myself to focus

After about an hour, I couldn’t resist breaking the silence. “How’s it going over there? Need any help with that file?”She turned her head, her hair falling softly over one shoulder. “It’s okay. I’m just organizing the client notes. But… um, this one has a lot of details. Do you want me to prioritize the urgent ones?”I stood up and walked over, leaning over her shoulder to look at the screen. The scent of her shampoo filled the air, and I had to remind myself to focus. “Yeah, that sounds good. Here, let me show you a shortcut.” I reached for the mouse, my hand covering hers gently. She didn’t pull away, instead, she relaxed a little, her breath catching softly.As I guided her through the steps, I felt a spark, like electricity humming between us. “See? Just drag and drop like this.” I lingered for a second longer than necessary, then straightened up, but not before giving her hand a quick, reassuring squeeze.“Thanks,” she said, her v

~KELVIN~I watched as the security team carefully maneuvered Rose’s new desk and chair through the door of my office. They placed it in the corner by the large window, It wasn’t much—just a simple setup with a computer, a lamp, and a few drawers but it felt right. Having her here, close to me, where I could keep an eye on her and make sure no one else dared to hurt her again.“Thank you,” I said to the team, my voice steady but firm. They nodded and left quietly, closing the door behind them with a soft click.Rose stood there, her hands clasped in front of her, looking a bit lost. Her eyes darted from the desk to me, then back again. She was still shaken from what had happened in the secretaries’ department, I could see it in the way her shoulders hunched slightly, like she was trying to make herself smaller. But she didn’t need to do that anymore. Not with me.“Come on,” I said gently, stepping closer and guiding her toward the desk with a ligh

The elevator doors slid open, and the moment I stepped onto my floor, my chest tightened, I already knew what usually waited for me.The bully and whispers.The eye rolls.The fake laughs.The extra work dumped on my desk like trash.But today… Nothing, like the universe decided to bless my day.I walked into the secretaries’ department and the whole place was quiet…fucking too quiet.Sandra typed like she was in a typing competition.Hilda didn’t even glance up.Mia and Lissa didn’t smirk or say their usual nonsense.They just sat there stiff, pretending to work like the whole floor suddenly became a church.My footsteps slowed.Okay… creepy.Peace wasn’t normal in this place, If they were quiet, it meant something worse was coming…my stomach already had that heavy feeling like I had walked into the wrong place at the wrong time.Then I saw it.The way they kept stealing side-eyes at one another.Small sneaky smiles.

The moment those stupid words left my mouth, I felt my whole body freeze, I turned to Kelvin slowly, scared of what I’d see on his face.He wasn’t angry neither was he cold, he was just shocked, like I had said something that hit him harder than I meant.His jaw tightened. “Who told you that?” he asked quietly, the calmness in his voice scared me more than if he had shouted. “Where did you hear that from? Who told you I was gay?”I couldn’t answer, my throat locked up, and I just looked down, squeezing my hands together.Kelvin studied my face for a second, then unbuckled his seatbelt and moved closer and before I could react, he gently held my face with both hands, his palms were warm and steady.“Rose,” he said softly, “I’m not gay and I’ve never been gay.”I swallowed hard, still unable to speak.“I don’t know who told you that,” he added, brushing my cheek lightly, “but you can’t believe every rumor about me, there are too many of them and if you keep
Three faces of Rose CHAPTER 25
~ Rose POV ~When I opened my eyes that evening, something felt wrong.Not frightening, not supernatural… just different.For the first time in what felt like forever, my mind was quiet, I didn’t feel like I was sharing it with other faces.No Blaire’s sharp voice.No pressure behind my eyes.Just silence.Just me...Rose David!I didn’t know whether to feel relieved or terrified.I pushed myself off the bed, half-expecting a voice to snap inside my skull.But nothing.I barely took two steps before my phone vibrated.Unknown number.But I knew the caller.My stomach dropped before I answered.“H‑hello?”Kelvin Halt’s voice cut through the line like steel.“Dress up… send me your address,” he said sharply.“Sir? I—I can come to you myself, I don’t want you to stress—”“I didn’t ask you that,” he said flatly. “Send the address.”The call ended.My fingers trembled as I typed the location, It was late,

~ kelvin ~I didn’t go home.I didn’t even leave the building.Instead, I walked straight into the private elevator and hit the basement level…the one only Josh and I had access to. But today, I didn’t need comfort, I only needed isolation…I need to think.I need to breathe before I drowned in the storm clawing its way up my chest.When the elevator doors slid open, the air in the underground floor hugged me like an old, unwelcome friend. Dim light, soundproofed walls, restricted rooms, the low hum of the ventilation system vibrating through concrete and steel. A place meant for confidential files, emergency lockdown, and the kind of secrets no company ever admitted to keeping.A place no one would disturb me.I walked inside and shut the door behind me, letting the echo cut off the world above.For the first time in years, my hands shook, not from fear.Fear was easy, predictable…something I learned to master before I could even sp
