Chapter 21: Unspoken Desires.

Chapter 21: Unspoken Desires STELLAIt'd been two years since Wales.Two years since the vans. Two years since Desmond and Taylor. I made it. I cleared my name from the internet but with a scar I would never heal from. A scar that haunted me to date. Tears ran down my face as I stood at the same spot, the same as last year. I couldn't hold back. I held a bouquet of our favorite flower in one hand—scented white roses and her favorite fiction novel in the other. Living felt illegal, now that she was gone. I dropped the flower and book on her grave, tears falling down my face as I found her picture engraved on the built wall behind the grave. She was smiling. Like she always had. I made it back. She didn't. They'd taken her from me. The most important of all was what they'd taken. I'd really been ripped off it all—she was all I had. I fell to my knees, I couldn't do it alone. I should have died in her stead. I should have been taken instead of her, she didn't deserve all of th

Chapter 22: "For you, I'd Lose Everything"

Chapter 22: “For you, I'd lose everything." RHYS Blaze. That name suited her in every way a man could think of. I walked side by side with her till we got to the apartment block. We were still neighbours. “Are you good, Blaze?" I asked her, my hand finding her shoulder gently as I guided her into her apartment. I was like her personal chef, driver too, more like her bodyguard—overzealous one, at that. I'd do it all—for her. I chose to be, just for her. Over the last two years, I began to find myself caring too hard. I hated that I didn't know how to stop. It was her. While she cried earlier today at her bestfriend's grave, a part of me broke even harder. It hurt that I couldn't do anything about it. The regret settled in. That day, she'd cried her heart out…begging me to save her bestfriend instead as I arrived at the warehouse Taylor had ordered his men to beat her up. Blood was oozing from her forehead as she begged, “Valerie. Go for her. I'll be okay" But I couldn't. I

Chapter 23: A Wish

Chapter 23: A Wish STELLA Three months ago, a quit notice had been served to all tenants of our residence and this morning, a quit reminder had been shared again. I glared at the paper in my hand. I had been searching for a new apartment which would be close to the Fashion Academy I attended but sadly, I hadn't gotten one. All the agents I had contacted kept declining because securing an apartment close to my Fashion Academy was almost impossible. “Are you agreeing to it?" Rhys asked, pulling steady as though he paused his eyes from lighting up. He owned a million-dollar mansion, not so close but around the Fashion Academy I attended. I'd gotten my admission, thanks to his connection with a friend. And I didnt want anything more from him, even as he offered to accommodate me. “No, I'll keep looking for an a

Chapter 24: List Without Reins

Chapter 24: Lust Without Reins STELLA Three weeks into being thirty two, I now lived in Rhys Adrian's villa, one of the biggest mansions in town. I didn't want to cross into his house now that we were more exposed to public view...so, I stuck to the guesthouse Although there was a side gate from the guesthouse I lived in, into his mansion, I made sure I only visited there, once or twice a week. In the last week, I didn't stop by or cross into here, at all. I walked into the foyer, ignoring its not-so-surprising design I'd seen a couple times before now. I crept my way to his kitchen, I was going to make a home-made dish for dinner. I'd offered to make dinner for us this evening, so I hurried into the guesthouse to freshen up as soon as a new friend droppe

Chapter 25: Twisted Connections

Chapter 25: Twisted Connections. STELLA Before I could react, he stroked my pussy with his fingers. My eyes rolled backwards in pleasure, as I bit down every moan. He touched my pebbled nipples, smiling with his drowsy eyes. For. The. Love. Of. God. Do it already. Ple— “How many can you take for me, Blaze?" His rustily deep voice owned every part of me already. I dripped wet for this man who was taking too long. "Ple—please, Rhys” My eyes almost watered. My body requested for his fingers deep inside of me. His gaze questioned me, like he wanted me to ask. I pushed embarrassment away and begged for it, shutting my eyes. I gave in. "Please, finger me. Pl—” I hadn't finished begging before he thrust two fingers inside of me. He didn't let me beg before he gave in. His fingers filled my pussy, thick and

Chapter 26

Chapter 26 RHYS Two weeks and a day. That was how long it'd been since Stella and I last talked. The morning I dropped her off at the academy. She no longer allowed me to give her morning or evening rides, or respond to chats, or even give me attention. She avoided me in every manner. I begged Sophia to get lost but she insisted on staying, for reasons I couldn't fight against. “We have a deal, remember?" Sophia flashed her eyes at me. My chest tightened, she was right. I couldn't breach it. A deal. "Yes, but—” "There are no buts, Rhys” She cut me. "Canada is not so different from London.” I moved closer to the railings on the rooftop, allowing the breeze blow through my armless top. “Then, I'm no longer interested in the company. Do whatever you want with it!" I flung my hands in the air, my tone already giving up on the argument.

Chapter 27: Reassurance And Distance

Chapter 27: Reassurance And Distance RHYSTomorrow was going to make it two good months since Stella gave me even the tiniest form of attention and funny enough, she didn't seem to care either. Guilt had gotten the best of me. A whole lot had been on my table since my last call with Shawn, my Father's late friend, one of the members of the board of committees at the A.D Group of Businesses. I hated how she ignored me like I meant nothing. Just so I could at least get a chance to talk to her, I'd gone to see Cassian a couple of times in the last month. I'd walked into the academy, without solid reasons and every one of those times, she saw me. She either turned away or pretended like I didn't exist at all. I walked into the A.D headquarters, my driver had dropped me off. I'd just returned to duty, two months ago. Reporters, paparazzi, and the press flashed their cameras at me, the air filled with shut

Chapter 28: A Sucker For You.

Chapter 28 :A Sucker For You RHYS The next day was a bright Saturday. I hadn't slept all night, I stayed up. She wouldn't leave my mind, even as I tried to stroll around my house. My mind was crowded with thoughts— but I had hope. Somehow, I had realized I couldn't take forever to make amends. She still had me in mind. I watched her jog out of the guesthouse in yoga pants and a sports bra. She was probably headed to the gym. I didn't think twice before dashing out of my compound in a gym wear and headed to the same gym down the street. It was an estate gym, obviously filled with many celebrities, politicians and people of high class who loved like normals among those of their kind. My stomach twisted at the thought of her being exposed to those kind of people. At a freaking gym. I jogged into the gym, few minutes after she jogged in. In my fiv

Chapter 29: The Underlying Desire: Revenge, Lust, Meaning.

Chapter 29: The Underlying Desire: Revenge, Lust, Meaning. STELLA I lost my mind again—for the same man I'd stayed away from, for two good months. It looked like it was simple but God knew it was the hardest thing for me. Even as I had stayed away, to protect my sanity and face, I had spent each day digging up a thousand and one reasons not to give him attention. At the guesthouse, I hadn't told him when Sophia came banging on the door, asking what was between us. She was his girlfriend but I'd smirked at her that day. “Nothing. What kind of girlfriend would suspect her boyfriend is cheating?" I hated her. But I hated him even more, for the things he kept away from me. Right as soon as I returned from the gym yesterday, I headed for a shower but before the water ran, my phone rang. I carefully stepped out of the bat

Chapter 30: Ruling The Lion's Den

Chapter 30: Ruling The Lion's Den STELLA I walked into my father’s office after wrestling with the question of whether he even deserved my time. I knew the answer, yet I pushed myself to see him. Rhys had tried to talk me out of it after I told him about Marcus's invitation but I insisted. I wanted to see him and listen to the lies he'd tell again. Every step down the corridor to his office felt heavier than the last. Heads turned. Conversations dipped into whispers. I caught fragments of my name floating through the air like smoke. His secretary looked up as I passed, eyes wide, lips parting as if she wanted to stop me. She didn’t. Good. Because nothing would have stopped me. My fingers curled around the handle. The metal felt cold… almost warning. I pushed the door open. He came into view, dropp
