~Thaddeus~I was casually sauntering toward my office that morning when Bernice, my secretary, suddenly approached me with a troubled look on her face. "Sir Thad! Thank God you've finally arrived!" I stopped drinking the cupped coffee in my hand and cocked an eyebrow at Bernice. "Why? What is it? Is there something wrong?"I checked my wristwatch and saw that I had arrived just in time. "I'm not late, Berns. And as far as I can remember, we have finished doing the last-minute revisions for tomorrow's launching event." One of my primary responsibilities as the managing director of S.G.C. is to manage daily business operations and to make sure everything operates as smoothly as possible.Bernice scratched her forehead and let out a deep sigh. "I see, you didn't read my text, Sir. I texted you that there will be an emergency meeting today in the main conference room. It was President Florence who asked for it." "Emergency meeting? What for?" I asked before I suddenly recalled overhear

~Gunther~"Should we become friends instead?" Out of the blue, Agathe asked as though I had not just told her how I felt. Hold on. What the fuck is she talking about? "Forgive me but I don't feel the same way about you." I blinked in confusion, my body was getting numbed by the second, unable to believe what I had just heard from her mouth.She had just told me that I could have at least tried, so why is she saying that now? I could see how badly she wanted me as well from the look in her eyes. So, why on earth is she uttering such rubbish? I have never had to deal with rejection before in my life. It was something I do to other people, not the other way around. I had turned down a ton of business deals, women who almost threw themselves at me, and those people who begged me not to kill them whenever I was bored.Agathe kept shedding tears, but I won't be fooled by that for much longer. "Are you indeed rejecting me?" "I'm sorry. I just can't-" I bit my lower lip in annoyance, cu

~Gunther~Agathe was about to close her eyes and lie down on the table but I laughed out of nowhere. My eyes were blazing with desire, but I had to fight the urge to taste her. I was so angry right now that I wanted to fucking punish her."Funny how even though you rejected me, you still believed I could give you the kind of pleasure that every woman in this city would give anything to have." She immediately reddened in shame, and I suddenly thought of the night I had drenched her face in a bucket of icy water.The reaction I received from her that evening was the same as her reaction right now. Smirking, I stood up and collected my things while she struggled to cover herself. "Let's go back to my office. I still have plenty of work to accomplish." I didn't wait for her reaction, I just turned around and marched straight for the door, leaving her astounded and fuming. Serves her right for breaking my heart. Before reaching for the knob, I looked back at her again and menacingly

~Agathe~My heart was pounding as I realized I could no longer keep my feelings hidden.I poured all of what I was feeling into our kiss, with my eyes shut close, not giving a damn about the world. Gunther's lips were warm and soft against mine. Time stood still and I felt butterflies dancing in my stomach.It was so excruciatingly magical that I felt a tear fall from my eye.And, because I was so small compared to Gunther's height, I had to tiptoe and he instinctively placed his hand behind me for support.He sucked my lower lip, compelling me to open my mouth. He used that opportunity to invade my mouth ferociously. Before I knew it, our tongues were battling for dominance. Gunther groaned loudly and it was music to my ears. Just as I was starting to savor the way he was making me feel, he quickly drew away from our kiss and took his sweatshirt off of me in one swift motion. Now, I am topless! He can freely see my bare tits! "Gunther. ."He placed his finger on my lips to silenc

~Agathe~Carlyle was gasping for air, drowning, while those other little girls simply laughed at her. The class had barely started ten minutes ago and things were already taking a turn for the worse.Tears streamed down my face as I sprinted down the bleachers as quickly as I could. My only thought was to save Carlyle and get her out of the water.However, before I could even reach the edge of the pool, Calixto had beaten me to it, diving fearlessly into the water. In a matter of seconds, Calixto had swum over to Carlyle, scooping her petite frame into his arms. Carlyle was sobbing and trembling uncontrollably as she clung tightly to Calixto.I was so stunned that I couldn't move for a few moments. My heart was racing, pounding against my chest, and I could still feel the tears streaming down my face.I only came back to my senses when I saw Calixto swimming back toward us. As he approached the pool's edge, Yesenia and I rushed to help him lift Carlyle out of the water.I took off my
