Elysia folded her hands in the back seat of the car, looking at the street lights that quickly blurred and vanished out of her sight due to the speed of the car. The driver on the other hand watched her from the rear view mirror sometimes, and whenever he saw a look of dissatisfaction on her face he slowed down, and time and time again he did it, until he got the huge restaurant, stepping on the brakes, and barely a second after that, he turned back to Elysia who was still seated in the car. “We're here ma,” he announced, turning off the engine. Elysia nodded, picking the small Gucci bag that was beside her all along, something that blended with the night, her knee length gown was not any different from it. “Yeah I know,” she whispered to him after what seemed to be an eternity. “It's just that I have a stomach upset.” The driver's brows almost came together as his gaze narrowed. “Maybe it's because of the rough driving; it won't happen again ma'am.” All she needed to do was

Orion took a step further looking at the faint glow of the phone, in the hand of Seraphina whose voice was etched with curiosity, and not just that, but curiosity also. “Are you going to talk or not?” She asked once more, hardening her jaw after glancing at the phone. “Tell me, how long have you been talking to her?” “What's that supposed to mean?” He inquired, narrowing his gaze at the phone but Seraphina seemed to be knee bent on knowing who it was. “Is there a message from me there?” Seraphina shrugged, taking her hand off her waist with a heavy sigh. “That's none of my business, Orion.” “My question is, how long have you been keeping this a secret from me?” Her tone was firm and she locked her eyes on Orion who was surprisingly calm. He was not the type to be questioned, but in that moment, if there was anything he was seeking, it's nothing else other than peace. “What is that?” He demanded, curling his fist. “What secret exactly?” Seraphina scoffed, raising her gaze to the

It had been three months since Damon left the country for London since that was where he applied to, and Elysia had to take care of everything. Although it was not a problem for her, since there was a time in her life when she dealt with a lot of things alone, but at the moment, she was not alone, given that Damon called thrice in a week, and sent things to kids once in a while. “Is it today?” Damon asked over the phone, the fatigue in his voice, audible. Elysia squinted as she looked in the direction of the calendar that was placed on the shelf in her room, some meters away from her bed. “Yeah, it's today, the twenty-fifth day of the month.” “Is that why you called?” The question followed just after her response. “Not exactly,” he chuckled, lauguing at the fact that his lie was so glaring. “But if you ask, I'll tell you it's one of the few reasons though.” “Thought as much,” Elysia rose to her feet, picking up the customized necklace that had her name perfectly inscribed on it

Orion placed a hand on his waist, scanning the room he was earlier on, the place himself and Elysia had stayed before their joint imprint. He pressed his lips, walking outside the door to see if he was still going to see Elysia but after searching thoroughly for her, he gave up, directing his gaze towards the sky. “You are not surprised Orion, nah, you are not,” he muttered under his breath, taking a step backward as he watched the reporters walk out of the room in large numbers.Twenty, if not more. “Sir, I've been–” “We're leaving now,” Orion cut the driver short, motioning towards the car that was parked about twenty meters ahead. “I've a meeting to attend two hours from now, so make sure the car's ready in the next ten minutes, when you are done let me know.” “Two meetings in one day?” The driver asked inaudibly or so he thought, but Orion heard him, turning towards him, with his hand still in the same position. “What about it?” His brows shot up, and he tilted his head. “Do

Nessa touched her forehead, the hotness was unmistakeable, and she walked up to the mini fridge in her office, taking out a bottle of water that she went on to drink halfway, and she slammed it on the table, causing some of the contents in it to pour, making some usable papers in the office wet without her concept. “It’s that time of the month again,” she whispered, taking out a small mirror from her bag, to see her reflection. “Damn.” Although it was not easy to know, she was getting pale. She pulled out a pad from her bag, but after taking her eyes away from it to the wall clock in the room, she shrugged, placing it back into the bag. “I can do that once I'm back,” she muttered, closing the bag with a sigh. “Twenty-six minutes left.” Nessa picked up her phone, opening her contact, and she placed a call to Orion's phone immediately after she stepped out of the office, only for her to meet Orion outside, staring at his phone with a neutral expression, and she hung up, just as the
