My name is Sam. Nothing more. Nothing less.
I had perfected it over the years-the name, the look, the role I played in the sprawling glass-and-steel maze that was Jaxon Sinclair's empire. The hours were long, and the work was tedious, but it was mine. And I was good at it. As his assistant, I kept everything running smoothly, an invisible cog in the machine that made Sinclair Enterprises hum like a well-oiled machine.
I didn't care that Jaxon was the CEO of one of the most powerful companies in the city. I didn't care that he was rich, or sharp, or respected in a world that seemed to swallow people whole. I had no illusions about men like him. They were just part of the system, a system I didn't need to care about.
I wasn't interested in him. Not in any way.
In fact, Jaxon Sinclair's world was one I had no intention of ever stepping into. He was my boss. That was it. And, for me, that was enough.

I ask, all of a sudden neverous. "I'm fine Darlin' but that's what I was calling you about." She says and I hear something in her voice. "What is it?" I ask, wondering what's going on.

Bryan Brent(The U-Turn)
Four good hours gone and yet nothing - no solution. I kicked a chair in my office hard sending it flying through an empty space as it crashed to the floor. Shelving off all the documents on my table to the floor, I created a perfect mess. The feeling of frustration engulfed me, tightening all the muscles in my body.

But at this moment, all I needed was to forget everything that was happening. Closing my eyes briefly to relieve all of the tension, I opened them again but the pain was still there, the reality of my loss was dawning on me completely and I was helpless.

Maybe I should just let it happen. Maybe I was destined to die alone as a no one. With that I let the darkness consume me.Complete
