A knock on my office door startled me and I looked up just in time to see the last person I expected at my workspace.

"Hello, dolcezza. How's your day going?" He invited himself in without asking me anything as I knew he rendered me speechless from the unexpected appearance he made of himself at my office. He settled down comfortably on the couch and smiled softly at me like we were in a healthy, happy relationship and he just came here to give his lover a surprise visit! Damn him…

"What the hell are you doing here?" I asked coldly and he shook his head in amusement.

"Last time after you asked the same question, I made love to you on your couch!" He winked at me.

"Isabella, a hard-working businesswoman who wants nothing more but to get rid of her past....


Alexander, an arrogant billionaire who wants nothing more but to make Isabella never forget her past!"

Mister Insistent

I was sprawled on the couch, looking at the time as it was racing and the day would come to an end & he hadn’t arrived yet. Maybe I’m not as important to him as he is, to me and this thought was killing me, twisting a knife in my chest. 


Suddenly, I heard a loud knock on the door and I jumped out, I abruptly ran towards the door and opened it just to witness a strange man in a pizza hut employee uniform. 


“Ma’am, is this Condo 601?” He asked in a professional tone and I nodded. 


“Sorry for being late, Ma’am. It was hard for me to estimate the exact location.” He apologized and then handed me a box of pizza. 


“But I didn’t order it.” I told him and this time he looked confusingly at me. 


“Then maybe your boyfriend did because a man called and placed the order.” He explained and my blood boiled at the mention of ‘my boyfriend’.
