11. THE LAND OF MY PAIN

ARIAUnder the glow of harsh stage lights, I stood, my breath almost suffocated by the heat.“Action!” I snapped a finger at the dancers and they sprung into action.I was shooting a music video, surrounded by my team. My assistant, Myra, stepped beside me suddenly. Her voice was eager as she spoke in a whisper. “Boss Bennett wants to speak to you.” I frowned. “Now?” I was in the middle of a shoot, and I was rarely disturbed when working. Myra nodded, smiling wider. “Right now.”“Daniel, conclude the shoot.” I said to the creative director as I walked away. Myra hurried beside me. I asked her what had happened but she insisted I talk to Bennett first. I walked into Bennett’s office. He was reclined behind his desk, his handsome face creased in a smile. He came around the desk and took my hand. “We won the contract, Aria!” Joy pulled my face into a subtle grin. My eyes shone as Bennett shook my hand. “The competition results are out?” “Yes. We just received an email. You travel

12. BOUNCING BACK EVEN BETTER

ARIAI dragged my kids and hid behind a small alcove, waiting with bated breath as he stepped closer. I whispered to the kids. “Be quiet for a moment.” I heard Rowan chuckle. “You don't have to worry at all. This will not leak. Have I ever disappointed you?” My heart thudded in fear as he stopped right by us. I held the children tighter as Nylah shifted uncomfortably. A few minutes later, Rowan ended his call and walked away. I closed my eyes in relief. Nylah’s voice reached my ears. “Mommy, who was that man?” I opened my eyes, giving them a sparkling smile. “Oh. he's nobody.” I took their hands and immediately hurried out of the airport. In my haste, I stumbled and fell, dragging the twins down.I shook as I lifted Nylah from the ground, dusting her off. A man stepped closer and lifted Lark, who was sobbing. Nylah started sobbing at the sound of her brother's pain.“Shush, I'll treat your wounds and you'll feel better at once.” The man soothed Lark who sniffled and held him t

13. "COME HOME WITH ME"

ARIAI was stupefied at his words. Why would he ask me that?“It was my mother's. I've always owned it.” “Do you know who your mother was before she died?” he asked again.“She was a bodyguard. Yes, I know.” He offered me his palm. “Welcome to Infinity Corp, Miss. Stanton. I'm sure your stay here will be very comfortable.” I shook his hand, his large palm swallowing mine. I had no idea why he had just questioned me, but he was already moving on.“Thank you, Mr. Finnick.” “My secretary will bring you some contracts to sign. You will work with me directly when I need your expertise on my personal projects.” I gulped. Working directly with Mr. Finnick was a perk of being here. He was a tech mogul and the brain behind some of their best designs and products.“Thank you, Mr. Finnick.” I answered. He showed me out of his office, informing Miss. Seymour to bring me the contracts. I had barely reached my own office when Miss. Seymour stepped in. She had a bunch of files in her hand whi

14. "MR. CASPIAN, YOU WILL HAVE TO KIDNAP ME"

ARIAHis brow arched sternly as he fixed an impenetrable gaze on me. “That is not appropriate language for the workplace, Miss. Stanton.” I pressed a tight frown to my face. “Neither is you asking me to spend a night with you appropriate for a workplace and you didn't have any qualms with saying it to my face on my first day of work.”The words rolled off my tongue angrily. “Excuse me?” His deep voice held an angry tone as he stood, towering over me, his aftershave tickling my nose. I should have shrank back. I mean the man could break me with his hands alone, but I was too aggrieved to care. He didn't get to disrespect me just because he was my boss!My chest heaved as I raised my eyes to him. I had never felt so belittled in the last three years. Not only had his secretary threatened me, but now Caspian was asking me to sleep with him? “You just asked me to come home with you.” I repeated his words back at him, refusing to back down.Caspian looked at me calmly as he spoke. “Yo

15. TWO HOURS LATE

CASPIAN Did she really say that to me? Goodness, I had never met a more temperamental woman.Aria was a beauty. Her porcelain skin was soft as petals under my fingers, and her brows were arched majestically. She was already walking away. Hugo stepped out of the car beside me. “I can bring her to the house later, Mr. Finnick.” Hugo was suggesting kidnapping her, just as Aria had said. I shook my head, watching as she slid into a cab. “She has suffered enough from my family. Let me talk to my grandmother first.” Just as I slid into the car, my phone rang. I winced when I saw it was Talia. So far, fueled by the guilty conscience of my act against her, I had put Hugo in charge of her. He gave her all she asked for and I was glad to see that she was getting everything that made her happy. “Talia?” I said.Her soft, delicate voice greeted my ears. “Caspian, are you busy this evening?” I was supposed to see Grandma, but I was sure I could make time later. “Depends. Is there something

16. MARKED BY HIS STARE

ARIAAnalide’s plan had worked exactly as she wanted. I had arrived for the meeting late and embarrassed myself. I gritted my teeth and stepped into the room but Caspian's voice froze me by the door. “We do not tolerate lateness in our workplace, Miss. Stanton. I am the only person allowed to show up late, and even I do not.”My cheeks burned angrily as Analide smiled sweetly at Caspian’s words. She turned a long look at me. “Maybe Miss. Stanton didn't pay attention to the time for the meeting.” Caspina’s jaw ticked as though the excuse was not any better. “Then she's careless and that's even worse. Find a seat, Miss. Stanton. And stop lurking at the door.” My heart pounded as I hurried to a seat and sat. I almost tripped over my own feet in my haste and that made me gnash my teeth harder. Once I was seated, Caspian introduced me to the board, expressing trust in my work and then invited me to show my work myself. I pulled up the video that won the competition and displayed it o

17. ENEMIES IN HIGH PLACES

ARIAI choked on my ice cream, coughing as I tried to catch my breath. Caspian had caused this by staring at me in every meeting. Now the staff thought I was his girlfriend. Cher’s eyes widened in panic as she immediately apologised at my reaction. “I'm sorry, Miss. Stanton. I'll keep my big mouth shut.”I finally sat back, tears watering my eyes and shook my head firmly. “No. Mr. Finnick is not my boyfriend. He is only my boss, same as yours.” Denzel’s confusion was almost comic. “But he asked you to stay behind the other day. And you both didn't leave the conference room for at least twenty minutes after.” They were even keeping track? I refused to answer the question, instead, I finished my ice cream and hurriedly left the cafeteria.Mara accosted me inside my office. “Mr. Finnick’s new secretary has just arrived. I can tell you Miss. Seymour isn't pleased with the fact.”Caspian had a ton of work as CEO. I wasn't surprised that he had another secretary. But I didn't understand

18. INFINITY CORPS, INFINITE LIES

CASPIAN Caspian darling? Even my grandmother did not call me that. I ignored Talia who sat beside me, turning my attention to Aria whose eyes flashed with disgust and anger. “Thank you for the offer, Mr. Finnick, but I already ordered an uber.” “See? I told you the wrench wouldn't get into this car even if you paid her. Can we go now?” Talia said from beside me, sliding her fingers around my arm. “Aria, get into the car.” I almost snapped at the woman glaring at me from outside the car.She folded her arms across her chest, her red hair glinting like rubies as she scoffed at me. “I'm sure, Miss Michael will hate that idea. I'd rather not encroach on her territory.” Her territory? What territory? I slid a look between the two women and noticed them glowering at each other. “What do you mean?” I questioned Aria who clicked her tongue and craned her head as a black car pulled into the parking lot. Aria smiled angelically at me, blinking like she didn't understand what I'd just as

19. THORN IN MY FLESH

ARIA“What do you want?” I asked the woman sitting on my chair. Talia bounced up, her office skirt short enough to pass as a mini skirt. “You're still late and lazy, aren't you?” She stood up, sat on the edge of my desk and ran her eyes over me. I fisted my hands at my sides, then flexed them and loosened my fists. I grimaced as I found a kerchief and cleaned my chair, then walked deliberately to the trash and dropped it. I had arrived at work, only to find Talia sitting behind my desk. She had looked up dismissively as though I was the one stepping into her office instead of the other way around. “Again, Talia, what do you want?” Talia leaned across my desk, and the calm mask slid off to show the angry woman underneath. “How did you even get employed in Infinity Corp? They only employ twenty staff a year and it's harder to get in than Harvard. How did you get in here?” I chuckled, booting my computer as I gave her time to stew in her hatred. So that was what bothered her? Sh

20. RAIN ON MY PARADE?

ARIACaspian was seated behind his desk, his broad shoulders encased by a tan suit that played up the color of his gray eyes. His sharp jaw, which was already clenched hard was framed by stormy brows. “Sit.” He nodded at the chair in front of his desk. I sat, crossing my legs primly, tight with frustration because I planned on defending myself to my last breath. “Excuse us, Analide.”Analide had stepped into the office behind me. Now Caspian had thwarted her desire to watch me being questioned. I was slightly grateful for that. “Miss. Stanton…” Caspian started, his eyes firmly on mine. “...did you read the bounds of the contract you signed as your prerequisite for working here?” Bennett’s lawyer had read the contract and gone through it with me to make sure I was comfortable with all the terms. Where was Caspian headed with this? “Yes, I did, Mr. Finnick.”Caspian’s eyes darkened as he leaned forward, placing his large palms on the table. “Call me Caspian.” I leaned away, the
