The Wife They Tried To Bury What was I thinking?
Nova's point of view Mr. Charles stood still for a second, from beneath the table, all I could see were his polished shoes. He stretched lazily, his shoes scraping lightly against the floor. For one terrifying second I thought he was about to bend down. Instead, he turned, the office door opened and then closed.I stayed exactly where I was for ten seconds before letting out the breath I'd been holding. "That was close..." My whisper barely reached my own ears. I slowly crawled out from beneath the desk, rubbing my sore ankle, then my eyes landed on the table.My stomach dropped. "No..." The flash drive was gone. "Oh, shit." That was the closest thing I had to proof, and now it had disappeared right in front of me.I closed my eyes and a voice within me whispered; Let it go. I almost listened…but then another voice answered. The voice that had stayed quiet for years, the one that watched people take everything from me, that voice said; No.So, I limped toward the door.The pain in my
The Wife They Tried To Bury Caught in the act
Nova's point of view My hand flew to my phone, but I didn't take my eyes off the screen of my laptop. Maybe I was wrong, maybe there was a perfectly reasonable explanation, or maybe...my stomach tightened.I tapped Reed's name, and the phone rang one, ten twice, then ended. I frowned and called again. Still, Reed didn't pick up. "Come on..." I whispered under my breath.."Please pick up."The third call barely rang before he answered. "Nova?" His voice was calm as always.. "Are you home?" I asked immediately. "Yeah, but I'm tied up with something right now. If it isn't urgent, can it wait?"I blinked…..Wait? Reed had never said that to me before, normally, no matter how busy he was, he'd ask what was wrong first.I forced a small laugh. "I just wanted to ask you something. If you're busy, it's okay, you can call me later.""Sure…..I will.".Before I could say another word.. the line went dead.I stared at my phone. "...That was strange.".For a moment I almost called again, instead, I o
The Wife They Tried To Bury The wrong flashdrive
Nova's point of view "Who says the celebration has to end that quickly?" Mr. Charles looked at him and something changed in his face, almost immediately "Oh..." He smiled. "You're right. I suppose I can spare a few minutes."My eves moved from him to Reed and frowned. This was the second time I'd watched Reed speak......and Mr. Charles immediately changed his mind. For one ridiculous second...it almost looked as if Reed had authority over him.No…..Don't start again….I'd already asked Reed. I refused to create mysteries where none existed, so I stepped in with the others, only then did I realized I was still holding my flash-drive. I thought of the pain if walking back to my office and missing the initial fun, and decided to drop it in Mr Charle's table.Damon popped the Champagne, and laughter filled the office. People kept talking over one another, yet… no matter where I moved… I could feel a pair of eyes following me.Every single time I looked up… Reed was already looking, not
The Wife They Tried To Bury false alarm
Nova's point of view My heartbeat lurched so hard it hurt, I forced my shoulders straight and looked at Reed. "Did... did you check?" He didn't answer, instead, he walked over, dropped into the chair beside mine, leaned back, and simply nodded toward my computer. My stomach twisted, that silence… sais everything already. God! We'd lost. My fingers floated above the keyboard and I typed the login details, my hands wouldn't stop shaking. How could I have ruined this? Maybe I hadn't focused enough. Maybe because I'd spent too much time thinking about things I shouldn't have been thinking about. Oh God… Damon trusted me, the CEO had approved my appointment because of this competition, and I had destroyed everything. The loading icon spun, and so did my eyes. It felt like my entire future was hanging inside that tiny circle..I glanced sideways, Reed wasn't looking at the screen, he was looking at me. My heart dropped even lower. The page finally loaded. "Oh, God..." The words slip
The Wife They Tried To Bury The devastating news
Nova's point of view Who says something like that after a hot kiss?.The thought came to the edge of my mind as I stared at Reed whose chest was still rising too fast, his lips still slightly parted, like he hadn’t quite recovered either. But it wasn’t the kiss that held me frozen. It was the lines of worry carved on his face. Without a word, I turned and walked into the kitchen, the storm building inside me gaining momentum with each step. My fingers found the glass before my mind caught up, and I poured water, watching it rise, without really seeing it. I held the glass, but didn’t drink immediately. Outside, the world moved like nothing had changed, but inside me, everything was turning into chaos.This was getting too far, the first kiss I told myself I was just being too emotional and needed a distraction, the second… The second had been a mistake, spur of the moment, but then it happened again. And now this time….. I wanted it. God help me, I wanted it just as much as he did.I
The Wife They Tried To Bury Lies that broke my heart
Reed's point of view This was the moment, there wasn't going to be a better one, So tell her, just tell her the truth about yourself, tell her everything. The voice in my head almost cried and laughed at the same time.I drew in a slow breath. For some reason, my palms had started sweating. Damon coughed awkwardly. "I'll... give you two some privacy."Elsa glanced between us before nodding. "I'll come with you." The two of them walked away, disappearing through the door and the apartment suddenly became too quiet.Maybe that was it, maybe being left alone with her was what had my heartbeat climbing into my throat. My lips parted; "Hey... calm down. You look like you're about to punch me."The words hung in the air, I blinked, because hell no, that wasn't what I wanted to say. Nova didn't smile, she only looked at me, her brows knitting together. "I'm not angry." She paused. "I'm just confused."Her eyes stayed on mine. "There are things that don't add up anymore, Reed, and if there'
The Wife They Tried To Bury A ghost?
Nova's point of view The next morning, I arrived at the office before eight. For once, I was grateful for the workload waiting for me, work was easier than thinking. The first stage of the World Tech Awards competition was only a few weeks away, which meant the entire department had transformed i
The Wife They Tried To Bury Dinner Date
Nova's point of view The office fell so silent that I was convinced I had imagined Reed's voice. For the first time all afternoon, Mr. Charles stopped talking. My eyes moved from Mr. Charles then to Reed. Surely one of them would laugh and admit this was a joke….neither did.Mr. Charles carefully

Nova's point of view What message?......Who sent a message?.....Certainly not me. Those lies crossed my mind the second Reed asked what the deleted message had been about.. Unfortunately, Reed was looking too patient for any of those excuses to work. I shifted my bag higher on my shoulder."It wa
The Wife They Tried To Bury Mannerless and Arrogant
Nova's point of view Twenty-four whole hours, yet no reply, the e message still sat there amd and I stared at the two blue strokes in my phone like it had personally betrayed me.. Not even a stupid thumbs-up emoji, nothing. I narrowed my eyes at the screen."Unbelievable."My thumb hovered over t
