AUTHOR’S POVThe press were relentless, standing on the edge of the property, screaming, waiting for someone to walk out of the Conrad building and give them something.Just last night, they had witnessed the Conrads dressed in aprons assembled by their rival, Sasha Becks. The question on everyone’s mind was, Is the war over?Amelia walked around the house, looking for a Conrad that would run with the story she had typed. Rather than step out and face the battle, they all cowered in their rooms, in hopes that they would ride the tide.“They aren’t paying me enough for this,” she muttered, walking towards the matriarch’s private library.Last night has been a disaster; the press had witnessed it in real time, and now, they were all reliving the moment they wished to forget.“Amelia, why are you pacing the grounds, you are going to dig a hole with those feet of yours,” Petal commented, sipping on her favourite tea.“The silence isn’t what we need now. We have to put out a statement, som

SASHA’S POVWhen I finally found the courage to return home, it was dark, and way past dinner. Rose was the first to welcome me, arms wrapped around me like we had always been this close.“Took you long enough,” she chuckled, slapping me gently on my shoulder. When I was younger, I had wanted this, hoped for a moment like this with her. But instead, all I got were mean stares and snarky comments.“What are you doing here Rose?” I growled, pulling away from her hug. I had only allowed her to stay because a part of me still felt like she was the only family that I had.Buti was wary of her presence. Rose was a wild card. Impulsive and very very explosive.Her smile dropped, her shoulders sagged as she moved deeper into the house. This wasn’t the flamboyant rose that I knew. The one that wasn’t the loudest but knew exactly how to draw attention.This person before me felt hollow, a shell of the truth.“What happened?” I asked, instantly kicking myself for sounding like I care. But this w

SASHA’S POVHe was closer. Hovering, teasing but never quite giving me what it was that I needed.I bit the inside of my cheeks, trying to distract myself from grabbing onto him, kissing him just like I had imagined. When he said I had ruined him, I was a second away from confirming that he had done the same to me. That he had destroyed me.“What do you think of that, my darling wife?” he asked, his lips brushing against mine. There but not there.I could already feel how drenched I was. My eyes hadn’t left his lips, mesmerised by the way his tongue darted out of his lips. The same tongue that had driven me to ecstasy. His hand squeezed, two beats, bringing me back to the present.“Something on your mind?” he drawled out.He knew. He knew that my head couldn’t focus not when he was this close to me. Not when he stayed at me like I was the last meal he wanted.“No,” I croaked, my voice dripping with desire.He smirked, his thumb slowly massaging my throat structure, his eyes dazed as h

NOAH’S POVIt was cute, the way her nose twitched each time Rose touched my arm. I should have snapped at her for touching me, but I couldn’t, not when I was seeing the fire in Sasha’s eyes.“President Beck?” Matt called out, looking at me with a slight frown on his face. “Did you….”“Had to drop the wife at the office Matt,” I said, stepping out of the car. Today wasn’t exactly a free day, but I needed a minute to breathe.With the tension in my head, coupled with the fact that Sasha has me popping a boner like some teenager every damn second, I needed a minute to recentre myself.His eyes trailed down my frame, taking in my attire, “You stepped out…”I sighed, pinching the bridge of my nose, “Yes, the world hasn’t ended, has it?”He looked short of words; his mouth wide open as he tried to process what he had witnessed. Sometimes, he made me just want to laugh.Rose rushed out of the house, dressed in a gown that looked like nothing she had worn earlier, “Noah, you are back,”I grun

SASHA’S POVHe sat there with a smug look on his face, eyes unwavering as the woman grabbed his shoulder. My fist tightened around the glass that I held, slowly imagining what it would feel like if it were wrapped around her neck.“What is the problem, Sasha? The woman is just trying to do her job,”I wanted to reach over and slap the smug look off his face. He knew exactly what the problem was. It was in the way her fingers squeezed his shoulder with a hint of familiarity in them.Do they know each other? Have they had…?The air in the room had turned tense, lingering with fear and desperation.The waiter hadn’t stopped crying, looking at me with a pitiful eye trying to get me to sway Noah from his decision.I heaved a sigh, knowing Noah, it was going to take a world to make him change his mind. “Noah, please, don’t do this. We can have another server, please.”Noah looked conflicted, his teeth grinding against each other as he stared at me. I didn’t miss the way he slowly moved his
