Come with me
Ashley “Ashley Cooper, daughter of James Cooper of Cooper Groups coming to their competitor's company for a job. What do I take that as?” A man mostly in his fifties inquired. His blue eyes sparkled with curiosity and a smirk. “To grow as an individual. You know how my father is a misogynist, he doesn't like women in leadership positions and I wish to be on top.” I let out a polite smile, explaining to the man. It was not like Nicolai Lee was surprised. It was he who extended me the offer to join his company. Right now, he was just testing my interest. Keep a calm and composed front. Calm and composed. Calm–I played the mantra in my head on a loop. Giving one hint of disinterest would make him reject the only way to get back at my father. “Good to have you on board, Ashley.” Nicolai got up, forwarding his hand for a shake. I put up a smile, shaking his hand. After a few minutes, I was at one of the subsidiaries of JL. The Oakleaf Hotel chain as the Chief Operating Officer with

My rarest jewel
Zachary “Come with me.”Her voice was a bit trembling, as she looked around her. As if I was not her husband but a stranger entering her workplace. I followed her, till we reached what seemed like her office. Leah locked the door, even shutting the window blinds facing the cubicles. “What are you doing here?” Leah inquired, crossing her arms over her chest. “Just visiting my wife at her new office. Why? Can't I?” I stepped closer. Leah's eyes widened, as her face flushed into a pretty shade of red. She stepped back, trying to maintain the distance between us. Seeing her trying so hard to escape made me close the distance more and I did, until her back hit the wall. “What do you want?” She glared at me. “Let's see, some kisses and move in together. Ah also, you are wearing my ring and informing others that you are mine.” I whispered. It was just a bluff, except for the last part. I never forced her to do something she didn't wish to, not now not ever. “Piss off. I am not your da

Mom
AshleyThat day I cried. I cried to my heart’s content. I cried for losing a part of me. I cried for every pain I locked away. Once I got my shattered pieces put together, I promised myself. One who ruined me deserves to be ruined. Zachary. Mom. Father…I cleaned my disheveled shelf, it was definitely not a good look on my first day at the office but luckily no one disturbed me. I mended my red eyes as much as I could with my makeup. The ring Zachary gave was put on the counter. I wore it back. Let's show him he is winning. Let's give him hope. He can't fall unless he flies highest. After finishing the rest of my schedule, I walked out of the office. It was already nightfall by the time I was free. If Zachary was not enough, Noir made sure I remained in hell. In the distance, a car stood there. A back sedan almost matches the environment. It was a business district, and people having a sedan was the most common. I paid no attention and headed towards my studio apartment. “Ashley.”

Sun and moon
AshleyIt took me a few seconds to realize she was hugging me. A mother's love should be affectionate but every time she has shown love it comes with a price. I didn't have to wait long before that warm hug turned into the strangling grip of a python. Ah! The same old stories, I am always a prey you need to devour to satisfy your hunger; not your daughter. ***“The sun and moon were lovers in the past life but when god learned about them he was furious. How can they love each other when they are supposed to love god? In anger, God cursed them to be right beside each other but they can never see or touch each other. The sun and moon begged for forgiveness but God didn't listen. For ages the sun came out at day and the moon at night. When they missed each other they asked the clouds to tell the other through rain. After eons of this, the god fury finally came down and he saw the lovers still loving each other. In guilt, he made a day when they could meet each other every year. He also
