Beep! Beep! Beep! Beep!Ugh that noise again, why can’t that woman turn of an alarm?My thoughts are jumbled, and I am struggling to focus.Why can’t I move my body?My body feels heavy, and I struggle to open my eyes. Finally, it begins to respond, and my eyelids open but the bright light makes me snap them closed again. I squint and try to make out the features of my room.I open my eyes wider as they begin to adjust and finally can make out the grey walls and white ceiling, I assume I am in bed since I can feel a soft surface beneath my back.Gingerly I turn my head to my right, and I can see computers and monitoring equipment which I now recognise as the source of the beeping.Why is there hospital equipment in my room?As this thought passes through my mind I turn to my left and look down to my side. My breath stills in my lungs as I see who is there, her red hair splayed out around h

Him receiving messages from an unknown number doesn’t seem all that worrisome to me, until I read that first message for myself. Unknown - ‘Disgraced Prince, everything that happens now is a result of your failure to manage and control that Bitch! It didn’t have to be this way. The Tigers were never a target, but now they are no more, and it is because of you.’ Reading that sent a chill down my spine and I couldn’t help but look to Lilli, she however was calm and just smiled at me to reassure me that she was unbothered by it. When I attempt to pass the phone back, he shakes his head and my stomach drops wondering what else there could be. I am not prepared for the fear that seeps into my veins as I read the words that follow. Unknown – ‘So you wish to ignore my warning, shall I convince you by targeting someone closer to you? She is beautiful, and such vibrant red hair.’ My head snaps up so quickly I fear that I may have whiplash and

I wake up to the early morning light streaming in through unfamiliar surroundings. As I take a moment to orient myself, I remember last night. Loving Rayne until we were both so spent that we collapsed and slept together on her bed. I chose her room because I didn’t want to have this moment with her in a place that was contaminated with another woman. I roll over onto my back with a slight groan and reach out only to feel cold empty space beside me. My head snaps to the side to confirm it and I sit up to search the room for any sign of her, but all is silent, our clothes still in a pile on the floor from last night. Where is she? I place my feet on the ground and walk around to collect my clothes, confusion swirling in my mind. I am just pulling up my jeans when I hear the door click and I turn to see it opening and there she is. I freeze in place as I notice the change in my emotions the instant, I see her. I had been feeling as thou

Listening to Lance explain himself is difficult. I have loved him since I was a kid but was unable to recognise it until we were teenagers. But as the Prince he was always untouchable, unobtainable. Then he was sent back here, no longer a prince and I had to accept the idea of him being my boss, which, added another barrier between us. After everything that has happened, especially those stollen moments where we connected, despite the mixed signals. I began to hope that the universe was giving me a sign that this was my chance. Breaking through his short temper and poor attitude has taken time but I am finally seeing the true Lance pushing through and I want to see more. Hearing him say he has feelings for me, even though he has not named them has further risen my hopes and my love for him has only grown as a result. “I want to make this house a home, with my woman by my side and the people who diligently and passionately work hard to ensure that this place i

These last weeks have been the best of my life. Rayne and I are growing closer each day and the staff responded positively to the changes I suggested to Anton. I was stunned at first but that soon turned to pride in my people and gratitude to them for giving me another chance.They were equally shocked but accepting of my relationship with Rayne and we’ve all begun to grow closer, slowly becoming more like a family than my real family ever was. I still miss my mother but the rest of them were never family to me.Today Rayne is off training some more of the two-year-old colts and I am in the office working through the finances for the monthly audit. The ranch is doing well, and the new hospital is proving extremely successful both with requests for help and the recovery rate.Hiring extra doctors has been a key factor in lifting some of the pressure off of my shoulders and meant that I can spread my time better between the office, the hospital, the yard, an
