Freya

Freya entered the room, carrying a tray of steaming food, and was taken aback by my tear-stained face. She hastily set the tray down and rushed to my side."Are you okay, ma'am?" Freya asked, concern etched on her face, as she gently checked my body for any signs of distress.I sniffled and nodded, trying to compose myself. "Just a little pain, I'm okay now."Freya's expression remained skeptical, but she nodded and began to feed me as usual. Afterward, she administered my medication and carefully removed the IV drip from my hand. She cleaned my wrist with cotton and tended to the area."You should rest now," Freya advised, her voice soothing."Is Kyle still downstairs?" I asked, my voice barely above a whisper."I saw him on my way to the kitchen," Freya replied. "He didn't say anything and went to his room."I nodded, assuming I would see him tomorrow.With Freya's assistance, I settled into bed, feeling the weight of e

The Choice She Made

~~~~Three days later~~~~I woke up feeling revitalized, eager to shed my convalescent state. After cleaning myself in the bathroom, I emerged refreshed."I told you yesterday I'd be fine," I said to Freya, who smiled warmly."What would you like for breakfast, ma'am?" she asked.I paused, craving independence. "I think I'll prepare breakfast myself."Freya's eyes widened. "You're not fully recovered, ma'am."I chuckled. "Okay, how about we do it together?"Freya nodded, and we headed out of the room – my first time leaving it in four days.As we walked, I glanced toward Kyle's room, curiosity getting the better of me.Freya noticed. "Young Master Kyle isn't around," she said quietly."He told the other maid to take a two-week leave," Freya replied.My brow furrowed. "Why?""I don't know," Freya admitted. "But Dr. Lee told him you're recovering well, and he also informed me

What is this new feeling?

I stood in the kitchen, rummaging through the cabinets for a quick meal. Noodles sounded perfect, but they were tucked away on the top shelf, tantalizingly out of reach. I groaned in frustration, straining my arms. Not that I'm unusually short, but the shelf seemed designed for giants. "Kyle!" I yelled, unsure if he'd respond. Silence. "Kyle!" I called out again, louder this time. I smiled when I heard the door creaked open, and footsteps echoed through the hallway. Kyle descended the stairs and he looked at me in a cold way. "Do you have to yell out my name like that?" he asked. His tone was calm, but a hint of annoyance flickered in his eyes. I smiled sheepishly. "I needed help with this."I said.

The Kiss

As we pulled up to the mansion, Kyle didn't make any move to exit the car."Aren't you coming?" I asked, curiosity getting the better of me."I have to get somewhere else," Kyle replied, his eyes fixed on the steering wheel I unfastened my seatbelt and stepped out into the crisp air."Okay, bye," I said through the window.Kyle nodded curtly, his expression unreadable.With a faint hum, he drove offThe mansion's grand entrance beckoned.Inside, I retreated to my room.Eager to reconnect with Vivian, I unlocked my new phone.Scrolling through contacts, I dialed her number.But it was switched off.I sighed, frustration simmering.Visiting her seemed the next best option.As I headed to the bathroom to freshen up, my mind wandered then the phone's loud ringtone startled me.DK's name flashed on the screen.I picked up."Hey," I answered."Hello, su

Fleeting Emotion

As Kyle's lips continued to dance with mine, his tongue intertwined with mine, I felt my senses swirl.Suddenly, he went limp.Passed out on top of me.I opened my eyes, startled and pushed him off.His heavy weight lifted."Jeez, does he want to crush the baby?" I joked and rubbed my tummy lightly.Processing the moment."What just happened?" I wondered.We just kissed.DeepPassionate.Unexpected.I turned and looked at Kyle's face.Why am I feeling this way?Am I falling in love with Kyle?"No, that can't be," I reasoned."It's just my hormones reacting that way."But my heart betrayed me.My hand moved and caressed his hair.Gazed at his sleeping face.Peaceful.Vulnerable.Beautiful.My fingers traced his jawline then his lips.My heart skipped a beat.This wasn't just hormones.This w

He is Dangerous

As I approached the elevator, the doors slid open, revealing DK and Kyle inside. My eyes widened in surprise, and I froze, hiccuping involuntarily."Are you coming in or not?" Kyle's deep voice broke the silence, prompting me to hiccup again. I stepped into the elevator, my heart racing."Hey sunshine," DK said with a bright smile. "How are you doing?""I'm fine," I replied, hiccuping once more.DK's expression turned concerned. "You need water."Kyle handed her a half-full bottled water without looking at me. DK passed it to me."Thank you," I said, opening the lid. But as I prepared to drink, I hesitated.If I put my mouth on the bottle, wouldn't that be like indirectly kissing him? My gaze drifted to Kyle's profile, then his lips as his eyes fixed forward."Naina!" DK's voice startled me, making me yelp. The water spilled, drenching my clothes."Argh!" I exclaimed.DK handed me a hand

The Confrontation

Lucas stood behind me, his voice low and cautious "I know you'll find it hard to believe after what happened between us."I swallowed hard, steeling myself against his words. He wasn't going to bring me down."And what makes you think he killed his own brother?" I asked, turning to face him. "Did you witness it yourself, or did you just believe the rumors?"Lucas's expression remained stoic, his silence speaking volumes.I scoffed. "Lucas, seriously, I'd like it if you stopped interfering in my business now, okay?"His eyes narrowed. "Do you trust him that much? You don't even know him that well."My voice rose. "And what about the people I trusted all my life? What did I get in return? I was betrayed."The words hung between us, heavy with unresolved tension.Lucas knew exactly who I was referring to – him and Amy."And what if I told you his cousin has Dissociative Identity Disorder?" Lucas ask

The Monster

"Tell me the truth," I demanded, my voice firm but laced with a hint of trepidation. I hoped he wouldn't hurt me.DK shut his eyes, his face contorted in anguish. He let out a deep sigh."Sorry, I can't do this," DK said, his voice cracking.He abruptly exited the car, leaving me stunned.I quickly unfastened my seatbelt and chased after him."You can't do what exactly?" I yelled, my feet pounding the pavement. "Are you lying about having Dissociative Identity Disorder? Who are you exactly?"DK halted, his back still turned."Just stop, please," he yelled back, his voice laced with desperation.I recoiled.The smiling DK, who always seemed carefree, was finally showing his true colors.Maybe I could get him to reveal something."Wow, are you finally showing your true self?" I pressed.DK's hands clenched."Are you Harry now? Huh?" I taunted.DK touched his temple and a low groan e

The Challenge

I sat in my room, replaying Kyle's words in my mind. He can't really mean it, right?There must be something he's hiding, something he doesn't want me to know. But the doubt lingered. What if it's true? What if he really killed his own brother?My mind raced with questions. Why would he do that? What could drive someone to commit such a heinous act?I thought back to the picture of Kyle and his brother under his pillow. Did he look at it out of guilt or nostalgia? The ambiguity unsettled me and I went to the bathroom As I showered, my thoughts shifted to DK. I hoped he was okay, recovering from his collapse.Lost in thought, I spent more time in the bathroom than intended. When I emerged, I dried my hair and heard voices downstairs.Curiosity piqued and I made my way to the living room.Seven maids stood in a row, their faces expressionless.Kyle sat in a chair, sipping a drink.I met Frey

The Dark Truth

I sat in my room, but my mind was elsewhere. Mrs. Prescott's favor weighed heavily on my thoughts. She wanted me to take over the company, leveraging my unique position as the carrier of her grandson's child.I let out a sigh, frustration etched on my face.She had dangled the offer like a carrot, tempting me with the promise of revenge against those who had wronged me.She knew I had wanted revenge "Take over the company, and you'll have the ultimate revenge," she had said.But at what cost?And what was her motive?Why did she want me, an outsider, to take the reins?I wasn't even related to the Prescott family, except through the child I carried.Then the rumors swirled in my mind about Harry who taking over the company.Why did Mrs Prescott asked me first ?Was it a power play? Or something more sinister?I thought about my threat to Kyle.Had I been foolish to think it would work? What if he didn't reinstate Freya?Would I really take over the company?The thought sent a shiver d
