'"How are you?" Kasey said into his phone. He spun a spoon around in his tomato soup; since she always cooked, he'd planned to make dinner before Olivia got home. "What are you doing?"

"Working," Olivia answered. She used her shoulder to hold up her phone as she poured coffee into a cup.

"You know this."

She poured in the hot milk. Then the sugar... She didn't know how much she had put in, lost in her thoughts.

God, Kasey was always so clingy with her. He had to know everything; what she was doing; where she was; who she was with. He acted like her guardian.

Sure, it was sweet of him to care that much, but sometimes it irritated her...

"I have to hang up now. Another customer walked in." She said, glancing up toward the little jingle when the door opened and shut. She slapped the lid onto the coffee she was working on. Some of the hot coffee spilled onto her hand causing her to mutter out a curse.

A smile immediately came on her face as the customer waved to her-she had to keep a nice face in front of these customers. She had to keep this job.

Kasey stayed quiet, and Olivia wondered if he'd left the phone sitting somewhere. Just as she was about to hang up, his voice finally came through. 

"Okay," he said, "Call me later?"

"Sure." She said, then quickly hung up to give the previous customer their coffee.

She decided not to call him back.

"Sir here is your card. I'll head to my room. Good night sir, Ms. Collins Have a wonderful night" He smiled at her and Jane replied to him with a beautiful smile. The smile I've been dying to see. Suddenly the smile faded when she saw me staring at her. "Where's my key? I need to rest" She asked John before he left and that question brought a goofy smile on my face. "Sorry Ms. Collins, but Mr. Greenwood said you both will be sharing the penthouse" The shock on her face made me want to laugh out loud but her gaze was. If only her gaze could kill. I'll be 6fts down by now. "What!" She yelled. "Came down Jane. It's not as if we're going to share a bed" I replied nonchalantly. But that won't be a bad idea. "You're unbelievable. You perv. Can't I have my space? Gosh!" She said angrily. John noticed the tension between us and decided to walk away. He was about to leave but Jane stopped him again. "John why don't you share a suite with Mr. Greenwood and I'll take your room," She said smiling like she just solved a puzzle. John turned to look at me and I gave him the ' say yes and I'm gonna kill you' look. "Ms. Collins, don't worry you're going to be fine. Bye!" John said and rushed to his room. Good choice my friend, good choice. I turn to face Jane with a smile of satisfaction. "Ms. Collins, I guess you're stuck with me," I said making her clench her teeth. "Am I allowed to sleep in the hotel's washroom? Trust me the last thing I wanna do is to share a space with you" She said and walked towards our suite. We got inside and our luggage was brought up almost immediately. Jane took her luggage and entered her room without saying goodnight. "Goodnight to you too. Don't forget we have a meeting at 8 am," I said out loud for her to hear and she shut her door with force making a loud bang.

|18+| "Enough is enough," she said to herself. "I'm going to ask him out." Getting up from her seat, she walked over to where he was seated. "Um, hi! I was wondering if we could grab some coffee and maybe hang out sometime?" she asked nervously. He turned to her, a sense of darkness and danger emanating from him. Her body went on alert. "You shouldn't be able to see me," he said with a smiling like a Cheshire cat. . . . "I scratch and bite" she warned "You'll crawl and beg too" he smirked. . . . The Ripple She hardly has time to breathe, much less dream, considering that she is juggling two difficult jobs. One face, nevertheless, sticks out in the midst of the chaos of her daily subway rides: a mysterious guy whom she covertly refers to as "the subway hottie." His mysterious presence becomes the high point of her daily routine-a secret joy. However, one day, with an unusual burst of courage, she dares to break the silence between them. What starts off as a brief connection quickly develops into something forbidden and thrilling. She has no idea that this seemingly random meeting will upend her meticulously planned life in ways she never could have predicted. The Echo He had to grow up too early after being born into an uncertain circumstance and found refuge and survival in the shadow of an underground empire. From a street-hardened recruit to a trusted enforcer in the family's inner circle, what started out as a desperate decision quickly turned into a way of life. However, trust is brittle and was destroyed the day he discovered a cruel betrayal that left him bloodied and drove him to flee. His only goal now is to exact revenge, and The Nemesis is his target. But his well-laid schemes fall apart when she gets in his way. His icy determination starts to soften for the first time, and he has to decide whether seeking vengeance is worth losing the one thing he never thought he deserved-her. 𝔘𝔫𝔡𝔢𝔯 𝔠𝔬𝔫𝔰𝔱𝔯𝔲𝔠𝔱𝔦𝔬
