YVONNE'S P. O. V

Mr Voss seemed different, uptight today, more closed off.

He hadn't smiled once or thrown a casual compliment my way. This morning, I made an attempt to start a conversation, but his phone rang and I lost the little courage I had summoned

I fumbled with my purse as we entered the sleek black car waiting outside the villa. Today we were meeting with some jewelry designers who wanted to merge their brand under the SilverThorn group to gain more sales and reputation.

Mr Voss ended his call, a frown formed between his perfectly arched brows as he read a text message. I tried peeping to see what had him so unsettled, but I couldn't make out the tiny words on his screen.

Today, a quiet tension clung to Mr Voss like a shadow, It shouldn't have bothered me this much, but it did. I tried thinking of what to say to lighten his dull mood today, but no idea came to my head. So I just leaned back as the driver drove us to the meeting destination

    CLAYTON'S P. O. VI couldn't sleep.Not even a damm wink.My throat felt dry again. I lay in the dark, the soft night breeze rustling the trees outside. A sliver of moonlight crept in from the window, illuminating the otherwise dark roomI turned again, willing my mind to rest, but it wouldn't listen. The sheets were tangled at my feet from how much I had tossed and turned, and I brought a hand over my face like it could shut out the images I've in my head since noon.But they kept coming. Each one more visceral than the last. When I closed my eyes, it felt like she was here with me, lying besides me, with her hair splayed over the pillow as I buried my finger in the inky strands, while she slept and murmured quietly after I would have loved and worshiped every inch of her beautiful body.I groaned and sat upright, then I stretched over to pick up my phone from the nightstand. It was a few minutes past midnight.When I close my eyes, I see her standing in front of that mirror, her ski

    YVONNE’S P.O.VMy body was something I had long stopped caring for.What was the use, anyway? When my father always made me feel worthless, when Edgar would always talk down to me, and point out my flaws‘I wish I had a son’‘A boy would have been more useful to me’‘Are all girl children always this dumb, or is it just you Yvonne?’‘For once in your life, you can finally be useful to me. Marry Edgar and prove your worth’ •‘Your teeth aren't white enough. Go to a dentist’‘Your hips are too broad. Fix it’‘Your right breast is bigger than your left, you should do a surgery’‘You are never wet for me and you don't moan properly, don't complain if I sleep with someone else’Those words from my father and Edgar used to ring in my head like a broken record without a pause button, but since Italy...since him, their voice quietened.The girl her father had looked down on and the woman her husband had looked down on were different from who was standing in front of this

    YVONNE’S P O V“A healing spa?” I asked, cautiously.Mr Voss undid his seatbelt as the driver parked in front of the spa. I undid mine as well, not quite believing this was where he meant us to beWe both stepped out of the carMy brow pinched, the late morning sun warm on my skin. ”Is this where we're meant to be, sir?”My eyes darted to the wooden sign that read the place's name. Terme d’Argento – Home of Exclusive Holistic Retreat.Mr Voss came over to my side, I could feel his eyes on me, looking at me the same way he was doing at the gazebo.My throat dried up. The way he looked at me sometimes...I know I shouldn't feel this way; he probably doesn't even see me past a timid employee, but still, I couldn't help the way my toes curled or the way my breathing stalled whenever he glanced my way.That moment at the gazebo was the best and worst, because for one moment, I had thought the look in his eyes was admiration, or maybe even more—Desire?But during our drive here, I just reali

    CLAYTON'S P.O.V“I'll be waiting for you at the gazebo,” I said and softly clicked the door shut I stood outside her room for another minute or two, listening to the soft rustling as she likely scrambled to pull herself together. It made my chest tighten. AgainThe way she cried and kept apologizing, I was ready to pull the door down if she hadn't opened it.It wasn't just embarrassment—even though she had no reason to be.Her tears were born from years of breaking; it was the kind that came from someone who was chastised too much, who had been made to believe that they were small and insignificant.I recognized that kind of broken. I had lived like that before...before she came into my life and filled it with rays of sunshine.Now years have passed, and our places are reversed. I fisted my hands by my side, my jaw tightening as I difWhat the hell had they done to her?The Yvonne I knew was bold, and cheerful, with the brightest of smiles that can chase away the darkest clouds.Thi

    YVONNE'S P O VSlam.“Holy flying fish brains, Yvonne!” I slapped a hand over my mouth, my eyes as wide as saucers. “Yvonne” Mr Voss called softly from behind the door.I slammed the door in his face. My very rich, very powerful, very Capable to fire me by the end of today bossA sob slipped out from me but it was muffled by the hand over my mouth “Yvonne” Mr Voos called again, softer than the first time. The sound of his voice suggested he was leaning close to the door.I forced myself to speak. “Sir”Somebody kill me now and slowly too, I deserve it. How can I be making mess after mess all the time? It's been barely three days and I've managed to earn myself a lifetime of shame and humiliation.Tears welled up in my eyes. How do I explain his photo on my laptop? How do I explain slamming the door into his face?“Yvonne are you alright?” He asked, his voice rising with something like worry.I shook my head, opening my mouth to speak but my throat was clogged. I couldn't get any wor
