As the instructor was telling them what to do with the birthing balls, she was thinking of another set of balls differently.And when she started sweating and breathing harshly during the exercises they were asked to do with their partners, it certainly had nothing to do with squatting positions.It was all because she had various other positions in mind that had nothing to do with how to easily push babies out.When she was already picturing every other person in the room falling off the face of the earth, she knew they had to go.She gave a close-to-incoherent excuse and practically dragged Maxwell out of there.They had barely gotten inside before they began to tear each other’s clothes off.Thankfully, there was no fear of being discovered by anyone.Reyona had given her staff a month-long paid leave for fear that she would probably do something inappropriate in front of them one day.It wasn't that she had become so dangerous that every man in her vicinity turned her on. Nope, it
She watched in concealed excitement as he removed the sheaf of papers from the envelope.When he saw the heading, his eyes widened as he asked; “Is this…?”Reyona merely shrugged and waited as he fully pulled it out and stared in amazement at the part where she had crossed out her signature with a big X.“This…. Reyona” he had called her name in such a heartfelt tone that had her smiling widely as tears glistened in her eyes.Then, with his eyes on hers, he aggressively shredded the papers into tiny bits while Reyona laughed.Together, they went to the fireplace and tossed the shredded papers into the fire.He held her close to his side as they watched the papers burn into nothingness.He turned to her with a suspicious wetness in his eyes.Reyona's heart was close to bursting as he cupped her face and trailed its features with his hands.“You are mine, Mrs. Rohan”, he whispered in a tremulous voice before he gave her a lingering kiss.Reyona could feel his body shaking as he held her
“Oh my…Rey! Get it, girl!”Toria's squeal from the other end of the phone made Regina grin on her way to her office.“I tell you, Toria. This is not normal.” She said with a sheepish smile as she pressed the button on the elevator.“Girl, I don't care if it is normal or not. As long as you are having fun and no harm is done? I am all for it.”Reyona smiled as she waved at Nicole in response to her greetings and headed to the office that Phil had prepared for her.“It is…” She waited until she opened and closed the door before she continued “It is all just so intense, you know. The feeling, the conversation. The…everything. I didn't know it was possible for me to feel all this for one person.”“Rey,” Toria breathed in a low tone. “You are in love with him!”Reyona opened the curtains with the remote before moving towards her desk. She sighed with a smile and said “I am, Toria. I don't know how this happened, but I really am.”“Reyona!” Toria called excitedly. “I am so, so happy for you
“Safe jour…ney” Reyona completed as she heard the disconnecting tone of the call.She placed her phone on the table as she mused on the success of Toria’s interior design company with her partner, Tara.Tara had started the same company on a small scale before her husband forced her to sell it so she could become a permanent housewife.Toria had discovered the emotional and physical abuse the woman had been going through. So, instead of buying out the woman's only means of escape from her marital problems, her sister had helped the woman finally speak up about her situation, reported him to the authorities and finally ensured that he was locked away for a long time after he almost killed Manuel in his intention to shoot Tara.Then she used the money she had intended to use to purchase the building which Tara’s parents had left for her to enter into a partnership with Tara.That birthed T and T Interiors, a source of new life for Tara and a chance for Toria to fully utilise her manager
“What are you doing here?!” Reyona asked in a strangled tone.“I come bearing gifts,” he said automatically as he held the bag in his hand forward like a peace offering.“I told you…” she looked beside her when she saw him grinning as he looked towards her side too.Phil gave her an innocent look as he said “I can…go?”“No, you don't have to. I don't want you to go. I have something we need to do right now. We have…” she trailed off as she tried to remember what she was going to do with Phil before he decided to discomfit her with his presence.“Meeting. We have a meeting, boss.” Phil quickly finished for her. “A very important meeting that can't wait. Yes, that is it.”“Yes, it can't wait,” she said as she looked back at Maxwell and inclined her head for him to leave.Instead, he moved forward with his hands outstretched towards Phil. “Hi, I am Maxwell. I don't believe we have met. You must be the very capable Phil who has been helping my wife out.”“Maxwell” Reyona said under her br
The meeting was mostly one for introductions where the personnel got to meet Reyona as the chairperson of the company.Most of them had seen her come a few times already, and they knew about how she had filled in for Phil on the day of the event as well, but they still didn't know her real identity.After Phil introduced her, to the surprise of those who had thought that she was Phil's girlfriend, they all began to introduce themselves as well.Then Reyona gave a little speech that encompassed her gratitude for the efforts they had been putting in, a promise of due rewards to those who continue to work diligently, a reminder of the goals of the company and how they were the face of the company who must endeavour to portray the company in the right light every time.She soon dismissed them, and they were barely out of the room when he clapped as he stood up from where he had been sitting on one side of the room.“You were brilliant,” he said as he came forward and kissed her on the for
“I think it is you,” Reyona said breathlessly.She was staring up at the roof of the car while trying to catch her breath.“It is me what?” Maxwell asked as he turned to her, his chest still heaving as well.“You did something to me. You… I was perfectly fine before you came around, and now I can’t remember a day that I did not have the thought of… you know.”He had a proud look on his face as he grinned and said “That was the best thing you had said to me all day.”Reyona rolled her eyes and sat up to rearrange her clothing.Just as he started doing the same, his phone started ringing again.“Someone must be very desperate to get to you. That has been going on and on.” Reyona said as she moved from the console and properly got back in her seat.“You heard it? I thought those were the sound of you moaning.” Maxwell said with a grin.Reyona raised her brows at him as he turned to search for the phone which was ringing from below the seat.He chuckled and said, “How had that got there?”
She was not being selfish!No, Allysyn meant a lot to her, and she would make sure she kept in touch with him…Well, she was not sure whether he would pick up her calls after what just happened, but she was going to try.Reyona paced to and fro in her bedroom as she felt like her skin was too tight for her.What did he have to look so hurt for?She liked Allysyn!She wished that whoever was the bastard who lay his hands on the girl would be instantly caught and dealt with.She hoped the girl wouldn't be plunged into the gloom she had once gotten into.Of course, she knew it was Allysyn!He didn't have to make her seem so heartless while looking at her like…“Oh my god!” Reyona sobbed as she rushed towards the nursery they had just started working on together.*****“What?”“Where are you?!” Reyona asked urgently. Chest heaving, she hoped she was not too late already.“I am on my way to the… what do you want, Reyona?”“Just tell me where you are unless you don't want me to come any…”“
