Sit Hug

The day CARL BRADFORD offered me the contract: "These are the laid-down rules; Rule Number One: You are not allowed to fall in love with me. Rule Number Two: You are not allowed to kiss or hug me, except if I want to, just to convince my father, which I wish will never happen." He didn't bother to hide the disgust on his face when he made the last statement. "Rule Number Three: No one is allowed to know about this contract, not even my brother. This is strictly between I, you, and my P.A. Is that clear?" I nodded nervously, wondering if it was the right decision as I clutched my stomach. This guy was unbelievable, and so full of himself, like he rules the world, and could destroy it with the snap of his finger. "You will get paid monthly as long as we don't get caught, for a year. If you want to ever opt out from this, get ready to pay me back." He said firmly. How on earth am I going to survive with this menace for 365 days? I inhaled deeply, and forced a smile at him. "I should get back to my boss, Daniel". His face twisted into a frown when I mentioned his brother's name. No one needed to tell me, that they were sworn enemies who will forever hate each other until one step downs, or preferable, dies.

After having a crush on someone for 10 years, out of love, my father drugged his friend and placed him on my bed. When he woke at dawn the next morning, his eyes were ice-cold. But he still accept our engagement. However, life after marriage wasn’t as good as I thought. Mike Ashton would frequently fly abroad and stay there for a long time. I gave birth to our daughter on my own as I waited for him to return home. After four years, when I heard that he was returning home, I postponed everything and went to the airport expectantly with our daughter in my arms. Our daughter reached out her little hand and was hoping for a hug from him. He just looked at me indifferently and said in a cold voice, “I’m sorry, but I’m a neat freak.” From then on, my daughter and I would wash our hands at least three times every day and the house would be spotless. However, he still rarely came home and never gave our daughter a warm hug. That was until when I accidentally saw a video with Mike in it. “Mike, what do you think is the happiest thing in the world?” He answered casually, “I think it’s when I tucked Oliver into bed and dragged Jennifer into the bathroom when I was abroad last week.” The people around him all laughed, but my heart felt ice-cold. Jennifer Bundred was Mike’s ex-girlfriend who he still had an entanglement with and Oliver was her son. It seemed that he had been living with them during the time that he was abroad for the past four years. This fact finally made me give up all illusions. I left a divorce agreement for him, gave up my and our daughter’s identities, and went abroad to start a new life.

"Sa tingin mo ba na pipiliin ka ng CEO boss natin? Kagaya ng isang cheap na katulad mo... Na isang assistant lamang niya?" ani sa akin ng pinakamagandang babae sa department nung team dinner namin. Natahimik naman ako dahil sa sinabi nito sa akin at napayuko ako. Mabuti hindi pa dumadating ang asawa ko at hindi niya maririnig ang insulto na sinasabi sa akin. "Look at you. No fashion sense and also a nerd lady... So manang. Ang gusto ng boss natin ay ang mga kagaya namin na fresh at magaganda." Napakamao ako pero nananatili pa rin akong kalmado sa nangyayari ngayon. Hindi ko alam kung bakit ganito sila sa akin. Biglang natahimik ang lahat nang biglang bumukas ang pintuan at napatingin naman ako roon at nakita ko si Nando na kakarating lang. Umupo siya sa upuan niya at katabi niya ang babaeng yun na kinakunot ng noo niya. Napatingin naman siya sa babaeng nasa tabi niya. "Bakit ka nakaupo sa tabi ko?" Natigilan naman ang babae at parang namutla dahil sa malamig na sinabi ng asawa ko. Napatingin naman siya sa akin na kinagulat ko. "Come sit with your husband." Nanlalaki ang mga mata ko habang nakatingin sa asawa ko at bigla namang natahimik ang buong kwarto dahil sa sinabi nito. What the... ****** LMCD22

Midnight Vosse just found out she's a wolf... but not really, she's just a half-wolf. And no one will let her forget it. No one fails to remind her that she's a joke to the rest of the wolves and that she's a weirdo with no social skills who can't stop counting or thinking about numbers. Grayson Baylor is an alpha wolf... but not really, he's just a recessive alpha wolf. That means he's not really an alpha, he's just a joke. A disgrace to the rest of the wolves. A weird kid who can't sit still and doesn't understand that no one can stand him. Midnight and Grayson are fated mates... but not really, because Midnight is a half-wolf and Grayson is a recessive alpha, so their bond is inconsistent and they just CAN'T DO ANYTHING RIGHT!

“Madeline, can we sit and talk in a civil manner?” He asked me in a distant tone. Those green eyes which used to harbour warmth for me, now seemed empty. I felt like I was talking to a complete stranger. “I have seen and heard enough, Logan. You asked me to keep our marriage a secret because you wanted us to focus on our studies and career. Do you have any idea how hard it was for me to wait for you in a hope that one day, my sacrifice will be rewarded and you’ll come back to me? And you paid me like this?” I accused him while tears flew uncontrollably from my eyes. “What nonsense! My husband would never marry someone like you.” Kate taunted me. “Madeline, we were never married officially. I had to agree to my grandfather’s last wish because I couldn’t refuse him. I always loved you as my best friend but there were never romantic feelings attached. I thought you were smart enough to understand when I broke all contacts with you. Kate is my wife. The sooner you accept, the lesser you’ll feel bad.” He said without any remorse. He crushed my heart under the brutal ridicule of his heartlessness.

"Bookworm!!!" Brandon smirked at Anna. He felt extremely angry. His majesty had never been so challenged. "Fierce!" Anna looked at Brandon, her eyes filled with provocation. .. A girl transferred to the most prestigious school in the city. Her appearance is attractive, but that makes her female classmates jealous. A student known for his good looks and bad temper always drives girls crazy but accepts to sit next to a bookworm. Two opposite personalities, one arrogant and difficult to approach, one gentle and weak but not resigned to fate.

My adopted sister, Rebecca Lawson, steals the gift I painstakingly prepared for the Don and presents it at a family gathering. Everyone in the room is stunned. So, my parents turned what was supposed to be my engagement party into a celebration banquet for Rebecca. They sit together and raise their champagne glasses to toast her, while I collapse alone in the bathroom, hitting my head and bleeding out. After regaining some consciousness, I use all my strength to call them for help, but only the mafia's consigliere and my fiance—Yves Gilbert—answers my calls. "Tessa, why didn't you come to Rebecca's celebration? She felt hurt by your absence! I know you've always been jealous that she could easily gain everyone's affection, but it's what she deserves. "Quickly come over and apologize to Rebecca. Don't disappoint us any further." Yves hangs up the phone after saying that. I stare at the darkened phone screen with an unsightly smile. They don't know that the gift I have prepared for the Don is still a half-finished product and needs to be repaired. However, I don't have the time to tell them. Because I am about to die of illness.

While I was bleeding heavily from my miscarriage, the hospital needed a family member to sign some documents urgently. The nurse frantically called my husband on my phone. After more than ten rejected calls, he finally answered, his voice a frustrated yell, "I'm busy! Don't bother me with these little things!" When we tried calling again, I realized he had blocked my number. Despite the pain, I forced myself to sit up and sign the papers. Tragically, our baby couldn't be saved. Later, I saw a viral video of my husband kissing his childhood sweetheart under fireworks. "It was just a silly joke," she said, "but he surprised me by lighting up the whole city with fireworks as a present!" Seeing their matching wedding rings, I wordlessly slipped off the simple ring I'd worn for five years and threw it in the bin. After coming so close to death, he was now insignificant to me.

[How do you avoid the darkly handsome Beta that wants to... eat you?] Camilla: I was sent to Alpha Jackal’s mansion to pay off my foster parent’s debt. It wasn’t something I feared until I learned that Rin, the pack's Beta, is a powerful demon. Now I'm stuck under the same roof as Rin, and there is no chance of avoiding him. I wish I could. Why? Because a demon murdered my parents in cold blood. I fear Rin. Demons are monstrous, which is why it must be one of life's cruel jokes to have inserted Rin into my life. Rin: I should stay away from the new housekeeper, but how could I possibly keep away from the seductive she-wolf? She is gorgeous, and my Alpha would punish me if he knew badly I wanted her to sit on my face, squirming and moaning my name. He can never know the truth, especially not since he seems interested in her too.
