[ Charlotte ]The party ended on the expected note as I wanted. The next day, it was the main headline of the news channels and papers. The social media was flooding with the pictures taken during the event and it made me feel contended except the one particular picture, mine and Sebestian’s during the dance. It had the title I dreaded the most.“Old flames rekindled between the ex-couples?”Fuck!A knock on the door of my office forced me to tear my eyes from the title of an online magazine. Jonathan was leaning on the door frame with different daily newspapers.“Not you, Jon.” I groaned in frustration and took off my glasses.He jogged inside and dumped the papers in the shredder. I watched the papers in long shreds falling in the bin.“It was inevitable, Lottie. Please don’t bother yourself with such shits, they’re going to be a part of your life from now on unless you wear a stone on your finger and change your last name for the third time.” He said grabbing a chocolate from my bo

[ Sebestian ]“Are you serious, Sebestian Blackwood? You decided to yield against our ethics and crawled to her feet. Great! Just great.” Victorine willowed but I found her reaction exaggerating.“I stopped meddling in your personal life since you took over my position, Son but I agree with her.” My father spoke very calmly but I could feel his resentment behind his stoic face.“I didn’t do anything which may effect our image.” I replied to them.“Oh please, Sebestian. You were the one who opposed my idea to negotiate with Jonathan but since you saw your ex-wife, your demeanour has changed. What’s going on with you?” She raised her eye at me.“Whatever I do is none of your business, Victorine. I know what is good for my company.” I said icily.“It is my business, Sebestian and I also have the right to know what you do for the profit of our company.” She said emphasizing on the second last word.“Sebestian, you have to take us in your confidence if you want us to believe you.” My fathe

[ Charlotte ]My sunshine, a smile crept on my lips as I adored his sleeping figure. He was snoring softly just like his father unaware of the hardships I faced everyday just to protect him and keep him out of the possible danger he might face as I decided to return to the city which gave me everything and left me with nothing except Ace.“Hey, sleepy head, wake up. It’s time for breakfast and you have to go school.” I ruffled his head gently to wake him up and he slowly stirred in his sleep before opening his eyes.“Good morning, Mom.” He smiled at me which made me love him more. He sat up rubbing his eyes.“Good morning, my prince.” I kissed his hairs and helped him to get off his bed. He never threw any tantrums to get ready for school. In fact, he was always eager to go to school to learn new things everyday.“Mom, tomorrow is parent-teacher meeting.” He looked up at me.“I remember baby. How can I forget such an important thing about my baby boy.” I ruffled his hairs.“You missed

[ Sebestian ] Her supple lips, smeared in raspberry flavoured lipstick moulded perfectly with mine. She tasted like the old times. I didn’t realise until I kissed her again that I missed her terribly. After the reluctance of few moments, she begun to reciprocate, her fists clutched my crisp shirt while my hands explored her body. She was like a drug to me.I bite on her plumpness and entered my tongue, our tongues played the hide and seek. She was going to hate me for this but I would repeat it million times as I could never get enough of her sweet nectar.She gently pushed me when her lungs needed air. Her cheeks were red but there was regret in those black orbs which once had immense love for me.“What the hell was this?” Her nose flared.“I kissed you, Miss Montgomery and it was mutual. You know this.” I smirked wiping the stain of her lip colour from my lips. She looked away to hide her embarrassed face.“Stay away from my son, Mr. Blackwood. You want to go to court, you may try.

[ Sebastian ]“That woman has a son with you, Sebastian. You knew this but you didn’t think it was the most important thing your father and I must know?” My mother’s voice resonated in the empty walls of my house. Her eyes were fixed on me with accusation swirling in them.“Yes, Mom, I knew but I had to be sure first. I couldn’t ask her directly about the child. She is no longer accountable to us.” I didn’t know what else to say to her.“You’re unbelievable!” She threw her hands in the air, “For years, we have been waiting for our grandchild and the future of our family and he was born somewhere far from us because your ex-wife decided to hide him from us. It was her way to avenge on you but she can’t keep him away from us anymore. I want my grandson with us and I’ll take the matter into my hands from here.” She said in a decisive tone.“Mom, you won’t do such thing. He is my son and I know how we’re going to be a part of his life. We can’t just demand her to give him over to us. Char
