—JENNIFER—When I took my first turn the person behind me also followed, confirming my doubt that I was being followed. Trying my best to not give away the impression of knowing this fact, I picked up my speed. I heard loud footsteps behind me, which made my heart beat faster. I felt a layer of sweat on my forehead as I walked even faster matching my own heartbeat. I was almost running by now and eventually couldn't stop myself from looking back. My heart thudded in my chest at the sight of the three men I had argued with in the mall. “Fuck!! “ Cursing myself for my stupidness, I literally ran this time. I had shopping bags in my hands which made it even more difficult for me to run for long. The hell I'm throwing away my Santa caps!!Eventually my steps faltered when another turn came. But before I could fall and break my face, I was pulled with a strong grip on my arm and pushed into a dark alleyway. A loud shriek wanted to escape me but another hand muffled my mouth making it d

—CHRISTIAN—I fought the urge to break something, but there was nothing in my sight except for the woman who is my wife now. Though for most of the time I just want to snap her neck but it won't be very favourable for my public reputation. I raked my hair for the sixth time in the last two minutes as I struggled to get the word out of me. But I guess, apologising is not made for me. It's a foreign concept to me. But her thanking me for saving her life had pushed me into guilt for over reacting on our engagement day. A day before yesterday I met Alex and he told me about the situation he found Jennifer in that day or I might say that he blamed me for her condition and had threatened me to apologise for being an ass to her. These were his words and although I care a damn about his threat, I just can't stop thinking about whatever he had said to me and here I am, finally trying to do the unimaginable. But her growing smirk is not helping the case at all. “ Are you,.... Trying to apol

—CHRISTIAN— "For the furniture, we recommend exploring brands like Knoll, Herman Miller, and Vitra. These brands offer high-quality and stylish options that can elevate the restaurant's aesthetic." One of the employees who was giving the presentation, said. I was barely focusing on the screen or his words. And this is the first time in my life since I've joined the business that I can't concentrate on work and that too because of a certain brown eyed creature living in my house. "Great! What about the overall layout of the restaurant?” Someone asked as I completely drifted to the alluring flashes of last night and the words of the presentation room faded for me. The only thing I could focus on was her in my arms and her chocolate scent filling my senses. It's not like I was holding her for the first time. But the damned position was so intimate that I couldn't sleep the whole night. A current ran in my blood and some certain parts of my body remembering the way her soft curves we

—JENNIFER—WHEN I didn't budge from my place due to a battle going inside me over if I should do it or not, he mouthed ‘Com'on’ and I found myself walking towards him. Thankfully his legs were getting into the way to keep me at safe distance from him as I started working his tie with shaking hands. His closeness always does stupid things to me. His eyes were fixated on my face while I tried my best to not look up and focus on the tie. I could hardly reach his neck, partly because of his height which was even more now because of the stool and partly because of his legs. But for me, it was like a blessing because I could stay at a safe distance. Now we can't trust the hulk in him when he's already angry. The phone call was disconnected and he threw the ear phone on the counter once again.“Calm down princess!! you aren't defusing a bomb. It's just a tie.“ He said, holding my shaking hands while opening his legs. Clearly inviting me to go and stand between his legs. My heart thumped

—JENNIFER—A woman in her late forties dressed in an expensive dress and a complimenting handbag was walking towards us like a Queen. A big smile spread on her lips as she kept her eyes trained on Christian. I sighed in annoyance. “ There we go again.” I suddenly winced in surprise when Christian grabbed my arm harshly. “ Let's go!” He said while taking a step in the opposite direction from the woman. “ Wha- No. It's rude. A thank you wouldn't take much. “ I said, trying to free my arm when my eyes caught his face. His jaws were clenched and the vein in his forehead was ticking like a time bomb. His eyes were deadly glued on the woman, coming towards us. “ Is anything-“ How are you, Son? “ Before I could ask, the woman was standing before us with a big cheeky smile. “ Won't you introduce me to my daughter-in-law?? “ She asked him and my face snapped towards her at the speed of light. Daughter-in-law??I turned to Christian who didn't say anything but his glare was clearly scre
