Lisa knew gold when she found it. Claire's sister was turning out even better than expected."She's a delinquent," her investigator was saying, "and would probably do anything if you offer her the right amount.""Where does she stay?"He sighed. "No where. She's been sleeping at different places everyday. I've tried searching if she's on the run, but I've found nothing yet. If you want to meet her, I can track down her location for you.""Please do."Lisa was too excited to sit still. Anything for a fee? This was only getting better and better. She hung up and left the bathroom quietly. Claire was at her desk, looking like a rat that had just been made to run through the drainage. Her lips curled up in a smile.Most people usually assumed she was not intelligent, so they underestimated her, but Lisa knew she was a genius. She didn't even know how the idea came up, but it had been pretty easy to make Claire start working for all the directors in the company.Most of them were pigs, and

When she woke up in the morning, Claire couldn't be so sure last night had happened. It was only the number in her call logs that told her it was all real. Axel had been there for her the previous night. Slowly, he was putting a dent on the very strong opinions she had formed of him.It didn't take her long to dress up and leave the apartment. Myla was late, so she walked down slowly. Her head still pounded harshly, and she was sure her eyes were red and swollen. As she usually did now when she was walking alone, her awareness of her surroundings increased, and she noticed the packed vehicles.There were four of them, each facing different directions. The windows were dark and rolled up. She had taken the time to learn every car driven by those who lived in the neighboring apartments, and none of them had any cars like this. The tiredness she was experiencing made her care less. Honestly, she even wished for one of the cars to succeed in running her over, if that was their aim. Myla

Lisa had a very busy morning. She was up before dawn, quite contrary to everyone's expectations. Excitement, and trepidation, had kept sleep far away from her last night. After Claire's sister had left Claire's apartment, Lisa had intercepted her a little further down the road."Hello, Miss McLennie, my name is Lisa Davinsky," she stretched her hand out for a handshake, "and I'm a temporary CEO at Lyn Corporation. I work with your sister."Rose jammed her hands in her pockets and gave her a look. "So?"Lisa blinked, but was not fazed. Slowly, she withdrew her hand and smiled brightly. Rose obviously had her guard up, because she was still giving her that mean and distrustful look."Our company usually conducts a private background check on all its employees, but we have found it difficult to find any information on your sister. We were wondering if you could help us." Rose eyed her suspiciously. "Why?""Well, for starters, you will be heavily compensated." Lisa knew she had gotten Ro

Lisa was in a very bad mood. She had not expected Axel to suddenly appear in New York, and she certainly had never expected him to whisk her away, today of all days. For a fee that was so inconsequential to her, Lisa got more information from Claire's sister, Rose, than she did when she gave up her life to Leo.Thinking about Leo soured her mood even further. The sly fox had duped her, but she would make him pay. Meanwhile, she was upset because she had imagined all the ways she could torture Claire with the new information she had just received. She knew she must have looked evil, sitting there grinning like a maniac at someone else's misfortune, but she was glad Rose didn't particularly like her sister either.The drive to the office was the sweetest she had ever had. She devised so many ways to hurt Claire, she actually salivated at the thought of doing all those things. She wanted to hold off for as long as she could before breaking the news to Axel and exposing the fraud his newfo

Claire still felt like a truck had run over her. As soon as they reached the penthouse, she fell into the plush sofa, closed her eyes and sighed."Is everything alright, Claire?" Axel asked.She peeked at him from beneath one eyelid. "I just need five minutes."Axel nodded. "I will be in the office with Donald. Give us a shout if you need anything."She closed her eye and nodded, then bolted upright. "But…what work am I going to do?"Donald pointed at a system at the corner. "Since you're so good at reports, why don't you do those? Something about them seems off to me."Claire nodded quietly. Axel walked towards her and placed a hand on her shoulder. "If the flight wore you out, get some rest."She shook her head and said she was okay. They left her sitting there, staring at their retreating figures. She lay back down after they had disappeared into the office. Claire spent the next five minutes thinking about any and everything that had been going on in her life. She wondered whethe

Axel asked to drive them. The look Donald gave him could have cut him in two, but Axel ignored it and grabbed the keys."What if they shoot at the passenger seat?" Donald whined. "They'll be expecting you there, not me."Axel gave him an icy look and cast a quick glance at Claire. She didn't look worried. If anything, she looked mildly curious. "The workers shoot at you?" Her gaze was fully on Axel."No." He responded with a hard voice."Not yet," Donald corrected in a whisper.Axel glared at him. "Are you trying to scare her off?"Claire smiled. "I'm not goung to stat back just because I hear they might start shooting anytime. After all," she winked at him and opened the door to the front passenger seat, "the bullets are for someone else."In one insane moment of thought, when Claire had winked at him, Axel wanted to grab her roughly and trap her between the car and his body. She had no idea the effect she had on him. She was going to drive him crazy, at this rate. He felt sweaty, a

The drive to the construction site was made in companionable silence. Axel kept sneaking glances at Claire, but she was too lost in her world to notice. Claire was thinking about her past. After her father had committed the worst crime to her body, she had lost all interest in men.Claire never dated in college. She would flirt, yes, at very attractive guys on campus, but she turned down every single one. There were quite a sizeable number of rejections by her sophomore year, but they all learned to just leave the "NO" girl alone. She hadn't cared, anyway. She didn't want to fall in love again, and she certainly didn't want to give anyone an opportunity to hurt her again.Now, this. A blush crept up her cheeks when she remembered how wantonly she had responded under his touch. All he had to do was place just a finger on her, and she forgot all her resolutions. Was it because he was super hot? Was it the arrogance she had once detested making him look sexy? What was it about Axel that m

He peppered her with kisses until she turned to mush in his arms. She immediately melted and let him be the aggressor. He slipped a hand under her skirt and tugged at her panties. He got it out of the way pretty quickly, and dipped a finger into her core. Shock waves of pain and pleasure rocked her frame. She went completely still in his arms."What's wrong Claire?" Axel asked, then gently pulled his hand out and returned her clothes."It hurts."Axel raised his brows. "Oh. Are you…okay?"He was not sure just how to ask her about her past without letting her know he had read her file. She nodded and tried slipping off his lap, but he held her fast. He returned the seats to their normal angles of inclination, and was content with just sitting with her on his laps.Claire worried the top button of his shirt with her fingers."I'm sorry."He closed his eyes. "For?""Not giving you what you want. I'm sorry for leading you on like that."Axel kept his eyes closed, but raised a brow. "Do yo
