“Marry me,” Marcus saidCass was dumbstruck, Was he mad? He asked her to marry him so casually like he was grocery shopping or ordering for an espresso.Of course, she didn't dare ask that aloud after all he was her boss and the only one who had the power to hire her after the debacle that happened four months ago.He had asked to see her about planning his schedule for the week and after ignoring her for five minutes he had dropped this bombshell.“What are you talking about sir,” Cass said in the softest voice as if she was talking to a child.“You heard me, Marry me” Marcus reiteratedMarcus could feel the tension building in her as she struggled to keep her tongue in cheek.This was one of the things that amused him about her. Women usually fell at his feet, in fact, he had fired several of his personal assistants for trying to seduce him but Cass was always focused on her work and acted professionally even when he occasionally tried to flirt with her."I need a no strings attach

Cass stepped through the front door of her house, feeling a wave of relief wash over her. She was eager to celebrate her achievement and relax before diving into her career. As she kicked off her shoes, she could hear faint footsteps. She immediately took the decorative vase at the entrance ready to pounce on whoever it was. Suddenly she heard the faint sound of music playing and laughter echoing through the house. "Scar?" Cass called out, recognizing the lively energy that could only belong to her younger sister. The sound of footsteps came rushing down the stairs, and a moment later, Scarlet appeared in the hallway with a wide grin on her face. Scarlet was the polar opposite of Cass; bubbly, spontaneous, and always looking for the next adventure. "Cass!" Scarlet exclaimed, throwing her arms around her sister. "I missed you so much! How did the exams go?" She said excitedly "Why are you holding unto the vase?" "I thought it was a thief" Cass said laughing awkwardly. The truth w

As soon as they got into the room Marcus had his lips on Cass, They kissed passionately as Marcus pushed her back into the closed door. Marcus paused and asked, "Are you drunk?" "No" Cass replied "Do you know who you are with?" Marcus asked again "Yes, I am with Marcus" Cass replied "Do you have a boyfriend?" Marcus asked putting his lips close to her ears "No" Cass replied moaning "Good" Marcus had to be sure she wasn't drunk, The last thing he wanted was to take advantage of a drunk lady. Without hesitation, his lips met Cass's in a passionate kiss. Cass felt the world fade away as she surrendered to the intensity of the moment. Marcus had his arm wrapped around her waist and his other arm around her neck to pull her closer. Cass felt Marcus pull off her dress and lift her up as he carried her to the bed pushing everything out of the way without breaking his kiss. Cass saw the beautiful angel wings tattoo on his chest and kissed it. She looked up to see his eyes closed wi

Cass sat in her spacious office, surrounded by stacks of legal documents and case files. The hum of success resonated through the room as she reflected on the remarkable journey her career had taken. She had become a force to be reckoned with, a rising star in the legal world. In her hands, she held a folder containing the latest case she had won. It was a lawsuit against an estate management that had tried to cheat people out of their hard-earned money. A sense of satisfaction washed over her as she admired the plaque on her desk, which recognized her exceptional achievements as a lawyer. Cass had worked tirelessly to reach this point, and now she was on the cusp of becoming a junior partner at the law firm as she had always dreamt of. Just as she was reveling in her triumph, her phone rang, interrupting her thoughts. She glanced at the screen not recognizing the number that appeared. "Hello?" "Who is this?" Cass asked "Good day Cass, It's Mrs. Anderson" Mrs. Anderson was the lon

Cass slowly regained consciousness, her eyes fluttering open to the sterile white walls of the hospital room. The rhythmic beeping of the machines echoed in her ears as she tried to make sense of what had happened. The events leading up to her current state slowly flooded back into her mind. She remembered waiting at the park, eager to meet the nurse who held a vital piece of information about Mrs. Anderson's case. Before their meeting could take place, chaos erupted as the nurse was struck by a hit-and-run driver. In the commotion, Cass was also attacked, stabbed by an unknown assailant. The pain from her wound still throbbed, a reminder of the danger she had faced. As Cass glanced around the hospital room, she noticed her sister, Scarlet, sitting by her bedside, her eyes red and swollen from crying. Relief washed over her as she realized she was not alone in this ordeal. "Scar," Cass croaked, her voice barely above a whisper. "What happened? How did I end up here?" Scarlet's e
