"I have to do something. I have to prove to Bentley that I can be useful to him more than that... That Nova," Savannah seethed, her palms knotted in a fist as she made her way down the elevator and towards the main hall.Savannah steeled herself as she moved toward the entrance of the building. The clamor of the reporters outside grew louder with each step, they didn't look like they were ready to back down. They were still trying to force their way in but the security held them out still."Miss Savannah is approaching," one of the guards announced, causing a ripple of movement among the reporters.As she reached the doorway, the security men parted, allowing her to pass through. She felt their eyes on her, and this was her moment. Her moment to shine and prove to Bentley that he can also count on her. Though she was behind the mess, she was determined to fix it for Bentley's sake.The reporters surged forward, cameras flashing, microphones thrust toward her face."Miss Savannah! Over

Nova walked through the main hallway, momentarily distracted by a colleague who nearly slipped on the polished floor, arms flailing as they caught themselves just in time. She couldn’t help but chuckle at the near mishap, her attention drawn away from where she was headed before she collided with someone."Whoa! Watch where you're going," the annoyed tone said, but as they locked eyes, surprise washed over both of them."Castiel?" Nova responded, her eyebrows raising in recognition."Nova. I didn’t realize it was you," he admitted, a hint of embarrassment creeping in. He cursed under his breath, realizing he had directed his annoyance at her when he had been meaning it for the careless employees who had bumped into him all week. He hadn’t expected today to be Nova’s turn."I'm sorry I bumped into you," she smiled, stepping back to regain her balance. "I wasn't watching where I was going."Castiel chuckled, adjusting his blazer. "I wasn't watching where I was going either. Just wrappin

It was closing time at SGH, and as Bentley walked through the halls, he couldn't help but notice something unusual. Franco, who typically kept his personal life private, had been spending an increasing amount of time with Chloe. There he was, standing by the pillar, hands in pocket and legs crossed, leaning over the pillar as he conversed with Chloe. He seemed really happy and Bentley had to pause and take a look.Bentley felt a mix of surprise and happiness; in over a decade of working together, he couldn't recall Franco ever mentioning a woman. Now, here he was, engaging with Chloe openly. As Bentley prepared to head home, he felt a sense of intrigue about this unexpected turn in Franco’s life. He really hoped it was something meaningful.Normally, he and Franco would ride home together, discussing work or remaining in comfortable silence, but today Bentley saw no need for it. Instead, he smiled to himself and headed towards his car, where Nova was waiting.As he approached the car,

Bentley took Savannah's bags upstairs, leaving a tense silence between the ladies. Savannah smirked, seemingly unfazed by the situation. It was two against one, but she didn't care. There was a lot on her agenda, and she planned to take it one step at a time.Nova finally broke the silence. "How long are you staying, Savannah?"Savannah scoffed. "That's none of your business. I can stay in my cousin's house as long as I want." She paused, then added with a sarcastic smile, "But since you're so curious, I'll answer. Just a few days," casually flinging her fingers and staring her down.Nova raised an eyebrow. "With the amount of bags you brought in, it doesn't look like just a few days. It looks like eternity."Savannah smirked. "You're right. Even I don't know exactly when I'll be leaving."Just then, Bentley came back downstairs. Franco immediately addressed him, "I've been waiting for you to come down so I can head home."Bentley nodded as he walked Franco outside, eager for an excus

"What!" Austin exclaimed. He couldn't believe his ears at what Bentley was telling him. He dropped his drink, the glass clinking loudly on the table, and folded his arms, leaning in closer to listen.Bentley had visited Austin at his house, desperate to confide in his best friend after the shocking encounter with Savannah. He was already losing his mind staying in that house and it didn't help that Nova was present because Savannah was present too and he had to constantly see her everyday.If only he knew that this would happen, he wouldn't have accepted for her to come to his home. But he couldn't chase her away either--she was his cousin after all.The two sat in Austin's living room, Bentley nursing a drink while Austin looked at him with wide eyes."Yeah," Bentley said, shaking his head. "Savannah told me she's in love with me. Not as a cousin, but as... more." He gestured with his fingers, trying to seriously pass his point across.Austin sat back, trying to process the informati
