It's been two weeks since she resumed working for Ivan. She couldn't say she has been liking it, but at least she could keep an eye on Ivan. That was all she wanted to do, really—to keep an eye on him. But he hasn't been making it easy. The change in him has been prominent. It made her feel uncomfortable, but she has come to be able to live with it. There were moments where she would feel his longing gaze and moments where he would act like he didn't care. Those moments overshadowed the nice ones.She couldn't complain. Normally, she would tell him some things that she wanted and other things that she didn't, but Rachel has been the anchor stopping her from doing it. According to Rachel, she couldn't act like she cared. So she has at least succeeded in putting up that front. Though it killed her to do it, she didn't have any choice but to do it.The last time they talked about their divorce, Ivan asked her if the man was not yet back, and she had to lie to him that he was taking some

It was Thursday night already, and though Isabel was nervous about what she was about to do, she knew that she had to do it for the future of her family. At least if she found out that he didn't do it intentionally, then she would not have to think about it all the time and feel disappointed.“Bitch, are you sure you want to do this?” Rachel asked her as she lined her lips.“Yes, yes I am,” Isabel replied, and then they both clapped their hands.“Good.”Ever since that day at the office that Ivan came to defend her in the cafeteria, everybody feared her, and they always greeted her. Camille came to her the second day to thank her for not firing her, but she could still see the wicked glint in her eyes. She would never learn, but as long as she stayed in her lane, then they would not have any problems.It was like the kiss on the cheeks that Ivan gave her two days ago opened the oceans of hormones in her. She started feeling horny ever since then. She would reminisce a touch and how hi

“Now shall we begin?” Isabel asked with a smile.“Did your mother give you a potion?” Isabel asked her.She took a while before she answered; the guys were about to dip her head once again.“Yes, she did.”“What potion exactly?” Isabel asked her.“A potion that will make him desire me,” she replied.“I see. Now, how did you get him to do this?” Isabel asked.“A day before that day, I brought him water because we were working on how we could save my office. I slipped it into the water and then the next day, my mother was all about testing the theory. My father does not know about what we planned, so my mother and I made a plan. I'll lock myself inside the room and behave like I wanted to kill myself if Ivan doesn't come. It was to check if he would come. According to my father, he was so worried and he came immediately. Then he wanted to take me to his house so we could talk. When we got there, that was how we started.”“So you gave a married man a potion to sleep with you. Wait, were

“So it wasn't because of your parents that you left Russia?""Nope, it was because of Dante. He wasn't ready to give me up, and he still isn't ready to give me up right now.""Wow, that's so cute. I want to know how you guys met, please," Isabel told Rachel.Rachel had a sad smile on her face."So, you know, in the spirit of being low key and keeping ourselves safe, we used another name when we got to college. It wasn't Rachel; it was just a normal English name. Ava. My brother used Aiden. The school was a private college that all the rich kids went to. So we had a cover, and everybody had one too. Not all of them were mafia kids, though. Some were just spoiled kids from rich families. But the mafia children had covers, so to everybody, it's just a school for rich and spoiled brats. My brother and Dante were best friends. They liked each other, and my brother was always going on and on about how his sister was off-limits to everybody. But I always knew Dante liked me. Deep down, thoug

“Mummy, Daddy.” The twins squealed as they entered the house. They looked so excited to see their parents. It made Isabel happy that they were happy to see her and their father. They jumped on her.“My little angels.” She called them as they hugged her tight.“I missed you guys so much.” Isabel told them and they both nodded.“I missed you too, mummy.” They both said at the same time.They stayed like that for a very long time until they finally released themselves.“How's school? Are you guys doing well?” Isabel asked them and they nodded.“Yes, mummy, school is fine.” Her daughter replied.“That's very good, munchkin.” She told her.Isabel saw Mary, and she smiled. Mary was such a wonderful woman; she could not think of any better woman to leave her children to and ensure their safety.“Mary.” She greeted her and pulled her in for a hug.“Cherie.” She replied.“I hope the children did not stress you; I know that they can be a handful sometimes, and it isn't easy.” Isabel commented,
