A gasp escaped Veil’s lips as her face lit up. A searing heat traveled around her body, and she pressed her thighs together, feeling a sudden moisture in between her legs. Anders said nothing else throughout the ride, as he had battles of his own. Since Orleans arrived at the restaurant for the meeting, he had tried to stop himself from throwing a punch at his pretty face, even though he knew the satisfaction the crunch of his bones would give him.Still, it wasn’t a scene he wanted Veil to witness. But Anders felt rattled to the core by the way Orleans kept looking at Veil from the corner of his eyes like some high schooler who had been love-struck. Anders tried so hard not to confront that situation because he didn’t want to appear the same way Orleans did before him. And when he talked about Veil like she was some errand girl who was going out of line, Anders almost lost it. Although he knew that it was just Orleans trying to get back at him, he hated that he had used Veil to ac

Veil didn't know how to feel as she walked back into her office. As her heels echoed on the tiled ground, her heart thumped in perfect synchrony, making her halt abruptly in the middle of the hallway. Shaking her head, she tried to get rid of her fears before continuing the journey to her office.Although she hadn't done anything wrong that she could remember, the look Anders had given her wasn't particularly a friendly one.He was obviously pissed about something.And that smirk.Urgh! Veil felt shudders run through her as she dropped into her seat. She caught a package on the floor from the corner of her eyes and muttered “shit!” Anders had instructed that she finished the food before he returned to the office and she had totally forgotten about it.The shrill of the telephone suddenly interrupted the silence in the office, and Veil almost jumped out of her seat in shock. The phone stopped ringing before she could pick it up, but in a second, the ringing tone started again, and she

Veil stared at Anders like he was a crazy person, and he couldn’t even blame her. He was sitting in front of her, proclaiming that he wanted her to be his. No rational person was going to be fine with that, but for Veil and Anders, it was more than the bounds of rationality. And even though Veil was yet to admit it to herself, Anders was certain of it. He could see it in the way her pupils were dilated each time she looked up at him like she was drunken in his presence. He could tell from the way she flushed each time he came remotely close to her. In all of Anders’ life, he was barely wrong about something. And he knew this wasn’t going to be an exception. “Mr. Roderiguez...”“Anders. For the last time.”A muscle worked in Veil’s jaw, and Anders found it remarkably attractive. She was pissed, and it was all due to his stubbornness. But he knew he had to have this woman. “You can’t just say that when you don’t mean it.”“Who says I don’t?” Anders questioned, angling his head. He n

Veil was distraught for the rest of the day, as every moment kept popping up in her head. She kept thinking there was something she could possibly do, even though Anders had told her to do nothing. But how could he expect her to just stay still and watch everything go by from a corner? If Sophia hadn't bothered knocking before walking through those doors, Veil would have been in a different type of trouble. Or maybe Sophia knew and was only pulling her legs. With a start, Veil realized that she had been working on the same page of a contract for the past thirty minutes and had made absolutely no change to it. "I think I'm going insane," Veil muttered to herself as she leaned against the headrest, closing her eyes. She could feel a migraine coming along and didn't think she could work in that condition. Veil could remember the day she got the invitation for an interview at Kingston Group. She had been so happy that she would finally be able to work somewhere as prestigious as KG,

Anders brought his car to a halt in front of Sophia's house, and for the umpteenth time, he wondered why he had agreed to do this. Spending the night going through the update report on the construction site sure was a better way to spend the night, rather than being cooped up in here with the idea of a marriage hanging over his head.One that he surely didn't want.He was late, and intentionally so. Anders had spent over an hour walking through his entire house, looking for an excuse to bail out on the dinner. He knew exactly how tonight was going to go and dreaded it. How was he supposed to act love-struck when all of him needed to check if Veil was okay?As Anders stepped out of the car, the doors to the entrance were pulled open and Sophia walked out of them with her head high. She looked great tonight, with a blood-red dress that hung right above her knees, and her hair down in ringlets. She had on a pair of black heels that looked pretty uncomfortable, but trust Sophia to strut i
