Clara's Mystery - Orphan Trilogy

How can you fall in love when you don't even know who you are? At the age of ten, she was left at the orphanage without any recollection of who she was and where she came from. Twenty years later, Clara Johnson, now the CEO of her own security company, SST, provides top-of-the-line security systems and technology that stamps out the competition. If only they could get the biggest shipping company in the country to upgrade their outdated system. But it seems that the CEO, Sebastian Colfer, will do everything to thwart their efforts. Or so it seems. Behind his icy demeanor, he has a hidden agenda, to woo the spirited CEO of SST. The mystery surrounding her appearance at the orphanage keeps her busy these days, and having somebody in her life is not part of her plan. So she pushes everyone away, but will it always stay that way? ==-=-== This book is purely fictional. Any similarities with people in real life are purely coincidental. ==-=-== Sitting in the back seat of Sebastian's car, Clara could feel the heat emanating from his body. His legs were spread out a little too wide, and they were rubbing against her outer thigh. She tried not to let it affect her, but his arm seemed to graze hers every time the car moved, and that unnerved her a little. They were sitting a little too close if you asked her. Clara tried to get away from him, as far as the space could allow, but her brother didn't want to cooperate. He kept on scolding her to stop squirming. She was trying to find a comfortable position that would keep their body parts from touching, what was wrong with that? Sebastian was tormenting her, and she's had enough. She elbowed her brother and told him to switch places with her. ‘Are you scared to sit close to me?’ Sebastian whispered in her ear. -=- Facebook: Intagram:

Installation - Day 3

Wednesday

When Clara opened her eyes, the sun had already risen, ‘Oh no,’ she thought, ‘Baz must have thought I bailed out on him. I didn’t even send him a message before I took a nap. I’m such a horrible girlfriend.’ She was scrambling to find her phone when she realized somebody had pinned her down. Who was lying beside her? One of her brothers, probably sleeping like they own the bed all the time, pushed her to the side.

‘Ugh! Time to chuck you over, buddy,’ she thought, planning to push the person beside her to the floor, ‘Hehehe... You won’t know what hit you,’ she thought as she started on her plan. But then she recognized her boyfriend’s nicely toned arms and his scent, her nose picked up the body wash he used in the shower, and she smiled instead, snuggling closer to him.
