Playing Cupid With My Boss #Wattys2022#Featured

Chapter-42|Twilight: An Epiphany|

The time was the finest of them all,
I thought I should go out for a stroll.
When I stepped out from my shabby little place,
The street lights glowed with a new grace.
My eyes were gazing far out of reach,
In thought of finding something or just a search.
"Twilight" I remembered was the time now,
When I could stop myself to make a vow.
The time was the finest of them all ,
I thought I should go out for a stroll.
It was neither evening nor dark,
My mischievous eyes lit up with spark.
The perfect time for something to happen,
Although the winds didn't seem to have forgotten.
Near me the hedges looking like a monster,
Gave me for a second a moment of fear.

I hate Sunday mornings especially today morning. I couldn't find my cellphone on top of it I am really late. Vamp Boss may be my husband but he is strict on discipline. I officially hate my life. Before I thought job life would go smoothly now I dread turning up at the office. Not that Darren will be angry, I am five months pregnant and look like a bloated whale so I can skip. But you see like my husband I am ten times more stubborn and besides I need to wrestle the CEO position from underneath my Dad's comfortable arse. Sorry Daddy I love me more. And worse is the fact that I can't consume coffee because of my pregnancy. I feel so freaking useless. I wish I could disappear somewhere. Darn it! So with a thump I collapse on my comfy bed. Sorry not sorry Vamp Boss!

Hmph! Zoya is not coming today as it is after one o'clock in the afternoon. I miss drinking human blood. God! I sound like Zoya's favourite supernatural character Vampire. Lord save me! Just then Mrs. Porter comes in with a tray full of food. Seems like someone is up to something. I start digging into the food as soon as she places it in front of me. The food is so delicious. I miss Zoya. My mind drifts back to two months ago on our last date. She looked like a dream in a pale pink saree. My wife is the most gorgeous women in the world and everyone at the rooftop garden restaurant was staring at her and there were some camera flashes as well. Whether it is western or eastern my Zoya knows how to rock each and every outfit. It seems fashion sense is engrained in her. She is a bewitching beauty who makes heads turn wherever she goes. I love her not for her beauty but her pure heart and not to mention her cute pouty lips.

I remember Zoya telling me how much she loves me through a song. It's I love you by Avril Lavigne. I open YouTube app on my phone and play the song. And a smile forms on my lips. Zoya is too cute!

I love my Vamp Boss and I don't know why I fall in love with him each and every day a little bit more. He is such a kind soul. I stop my ranting when I notice Demon cat on the bed sitting beside me licking his black furry paws and sneering at me. I swear I am not joking. He tries to pet my head and that's when I remember what Darren said about code 101 and I jump from the bed and land on my feet on the carpet and run for my life. I lock the front door and as soon as I step out I come face to face with the Voldemort dog from my first day at office. I try to side-step it to get to my Audi R8 car but it follows me. Then I notice a snake on the drivers sit of my car. Next I thing I know darkness swallows me but before I lose consciousness I remember Darren singing the song Hero by Sterling Knight from the movie Starstruck on our last date....
