The Time Traveling Roommate Chapter 1 The Unexpected Arrival

Mia Lawson sighed as she fumbled with her apartment keys, desperately trying to unlock the door after a grueling day at work. The cramped office, endless deadlines, and a particularly frustrating design critique had left her feeling drained. All she wanted now was a quiet evening, a hot shower, and maybe some takeout.

"Just one more minute," she muttered to herself, her fingers finally finding the right key. As the door creaked open, she was greeted by the familiar sight of her small but cozy apartment. The living room, cluttered with art supplies and takeout containers, seemed like a haven of tranquility compared to the chaos of her day.

Just as she was about to collapse onto the couch, there was a knock at the door. Mia frowned, glancing at her watch. "Who could that be at this hour?" she wondered aloud. She hadn't been expecting any visitors.

Opening the door, Mia was met with a curious sight: a man who looked as if he had stepped straight out of a sci-fi novel. He was impeccably dressed in a sleek, tailored suit that seemed to shimmer slightly under the hallway light. His tousled hair and intense blue eyes only added to his enigmatic aura.

"Hi, I'm Liam Carter," he said with a warm, yet oddly formal smile. "I'm your new roommate."

Mia stared at him, her mind struggling to process the situation. "Roommate? I didn't know I was getting a new one."

Liam glanced around the small apartment with a mixture of curiosity and slight apprehension. "There must have been a mix-up with the landlord. I'm supposed to be moving in here."

Mia's eyebrows shot up. "Well, I didn't get any notice about a new roommate. Are you sure this is the right place?"

Liam's smile widened, though there was a hint of nervousness in his eyes. "Absolutely. Though, given the circumstances, I'm not surprised there was some confusion."

Mia couldn't help but feel a pang of annoyance. "You know, a little heads-up would have been nice. But, since you're here now, come on in, I guess."

As Liam stepped past her into the apartment, Mia noticed the sleek, silver suitcase he carried. It looked more like a high-tech gadget than a piece of luggage. He began to unpack with practiced efficiency, revealing an assortment of clothes and what appeared to be futuristic gadgets.

"So, Liam," Mia said, trying to make conversation while she helped him carry his bags. "What exactly do you do?"

Liam hesitated for a moment, then replied, "I work in a field that's a bit unconventional. I'd rather keep the details to myself for now."

Mia raised an eyebrow. "Unconventional, huh? Sounds intriguing. And you're sure you're not some secret agent or something?"

Liam chuckled, a sound that was both charming and slightly mysterious. "You could say I have a unique job. But I assure you, there's nothing too extraordinary about it."

As they carried the last of Liam's belongings into the spare room, Mia's curiosity got the better of her. "So, tell me more about this unique job. I mean, if we're going to be living together, I'd like to know what I'm getting into."

Liam smiled wryly. "Let's just say it involves some unusual activities. You might even call it... time-sensitive."

Mia's eyes widened in surprise. "Time-sensitive? Are you telling me you're involved in something like-"

Before she could finish her sentence, a soft beep interrupted them. Liam pulled out a small, sleek device from his suitcase, which emitted a faint, pulsating glow.

"That's my communicator," Liam explained, glancing at the device. "It's a part of my work. I should probably take this."

Mia watched with a mix of fascination and skepticism as Liam walked to a corner of the room, speaking into the device in a language she didn't understand. The more she observed, the more she became convinced that there was something decidedly unusual about her new roommate.

Just as she was about to ask him another question, Liam turned back with a serious expression. "Mia, I need to ask a favor. I know this might sound strange, but I'd like you to keep what you've seen and heard here between us. It's important for my work."

Mia blinked, taken aback. "Why would I need to keep this a secret?"

Liam's gaze softened. "It's not that I don't trust you. It's just that some things are better left unexplained. I assure you, it's for the best."

Mia nodded, though she was far from convinced. "Alright, I'll keep it under wraps. But you owe me an explanation at some point."

"Deal," Liam said, his smile returning.

Later that evening, as Mia tried to unwind with a cup of tea and a book, she couldn't shake the feeling that her life had just taken a bizarre turn. The mysterious, charming Liam Carter was not just an ordinary roommate. His strange behavior, coupled with the futuristic gadgets, left her with more questions than answers.

The next morning, Mia awoke to the sound of clattering in the kitchen. She shuffled out of bed and into the kitchen, where she found Liam attempting to make breakfast. The kitchen looked like a science experiment gone awry, with an array of odd appliances and ingredients strewn across the counters.

"Good morning," Mia said, trying to stifle a laugh. "It looks like you're cooking up something... interesting."

Liam looked up from his concoction with a sheepish grin. "I'm trying out a new recipe. It's from a time period that's not quite modern."

Mia raised an eyebrow. "A time period? Are you sure you're not accidentally creating a potion or something?"

Liam laughed, his eyes twinkling with amusement. "I promise it's just breakfast. Though, I suppose you never know what might happen."

As they sat down to eat, Mia couldn't help but be intrigued by Liam's demeanor. He was both enigmatic and engaging, and his presence brought a strange excitement to her otherwise mundane routine. The breakfast, while unconventional, was surprisingly delicious, and Mia found herself enjoying the peculiar start to her day.

Throughout the following days, Mia and Liam's interactions became increasingly interesting. Liam's mysterious work continued to spark Mia's curiosity, and his frequent absences only fueled her imagination about the true nature of his job. Meanwhile, Liam seemed to enjoy Mia's company, though he remained tight-lipped about the details of his time-traveling adventures.

One evening, as they were sitting together in the living room, Mia finally decided to address the elephant in the room. "So, Liam, I've been thinking. You mentioned your job was time-sensitive. Does that mean you're actually... a time traveler?"

Liam's eyes met hers, and for a moment, there was a flicker of something-regret, perhaps, or resolve. "Yes, Mia. I am a time traveler. My mission involves preventing certain events from occurring that could have serious consequences for the future."

Mia's mouth dropped open in disbelief. "You're serious? You're actually from the future?"

Liam nodded. "Indeed. And while I understand this might be difficult to accept, I assure you, it's the truth."

Mia stared at him, her mind racing with possibilities. "This is unbelievable. And you're saying you're here to stop something terrible from happening?"

"Exactly," Liam replied. "And your involvement might be crucial."

As Mia tried to process this revelation, she felt a mixture of excitement and trepidation. Her ordinary life had suddenly become a whirlwind of extraordinary possibilities. The thought of embarking on a time-traveling adventure with Liam was both thrilling and daunting.

"Well," Mia said with a determined smile, "if I'm going to be part of this adventure, I'd better be prepared. When do we start?"

Liam's expression softened, and he gave her a grateful nod. "Soon. And thank you for being open-minded. This journey is about to get very interesting."

As Mia settled into her newfound role as Liam's roommate and ally, she couldn't help but feel that her life was on the brink of an incredible adventure. The ordinary days of graphic design and routine had been replaced by a future she had never imagined, and she was ready to embrace whatever came next.

I lay paralyzed on stiff white sheets, a prisoner in my own skin, listening to the rain lash against the window like nails on a coffin. My father, Elmore Franco, didn't even look at my face as he checked his clipboard. He just listened to the steady, monotonous beep of the heart monitor-the only thing proving I was still alive. Without a hint of remorse, he pulled a pen from his pocket and signed the Do Not Resuscitate order. My stepmother, Ophelia, stepped out from behind him, wearing my favorite pearl necklace and smelling of cloying perfume. She leaned close to my ear to whisper the truth that turned my blood to ice. "It was the tea, darling. Just like your mother. A slow, tasteless poison." She chuckled as she revealed that my fiancé, Bryce, had a two-year-old son with my sister, Daniela. My inheritance had been funding their secret life for years, and now that the money was secure, I was an inconvenience they were finally scrubbing away. As my father yanked the power cord from the wall, the beeping died, and the darkness swallowed me whole. I was being murdered by my own flesh and blood, used as a bank account until I was no longer needed. I died in that sterile room, drowning in the realization that every person I ever loved was a monster who had been waiting for me to take my last breath. Then, I gasped. I woke up in a luxury hotel suite surrounded by silk sheets, five years in the past-the very morning of my wedding. Next to me lay Basile Delgado, the "Wolf of Wall Street" and my family's most dangerous enemy. In my first life, I ran from this room in a panic and lost everything. This time, I looked at the man who would eventually destroy my father's empire and decided to join him. "I'm not leaving, Basile. Marry me. Right now. Today."

Rain hammered against the asphalt as my sedan spun violently into the guardrail on the I-95. Blood trickled down my temple, stinging my eyes, while the rhythmic slap of the windshield wipers mocked my panic. Trembling, I dialed my husband, Clive. His executive assistant answered instead, his voice professional and utterly cold. "Mr. Wilson says to stop the theatrics. He said, and I quote, 'Hang up. Tell her I don’t have time for her emotional blackmail tonight.'" The line went dead while I was still trapped in the wreckage. At the hospital, I watched the news footage of Clive wrapping his jacket around his "fragile" ex-girlfriend, Angelena, shielding her from the storm I was currently bleeding in. When I returned to our penthouse, I found a prenatal ultrasound in his suit pocket, dated the day he claimed to be on a business trip. Instead of an apology, Clive met me with a sneer. He told me I was nothing but an "expensive decoration" his father bought to make him look stable. He froze my bank accounts and cut off my cards, waiting for the hunger to drive me back to his feet. I stared at the man I had loved for four years, realizing he didn't just want a wife; he wanted a prop he could switch off. He thought he could starve me into submission while he played father to another woman's child. But Clive forgot one thing. Before I was his trophy wife, I was Starfall—the legendary voice actress who vanished at the height of her fame. "I'm not jealous, Clive. I'm done." I grabbed my old microphone and walked out. I’m not just leaving him; I’m taking the lead role in the biggest saga in Hollywood—the one Angelena is desperate for. This time, the "decoration" is going to burn his world down.

One Night With My Billionaire Boss

I woke up on silk sheets that smelled of expensive cedar and cold sandalwood, a world away from my cramped apartment in Brooklyn. Beside me lay Ezra Gardner—my boss, the billionaire CEO of Gardner Holdings, and the man who could end my career with a snap of his fingers. He didn’t offer an apology for the night before; instead, he looked at me with terrifying clarity and proposed a cold, calculated business arrangement. "Marriage. It stabilizes the board and solves the PR crisis before it begins." He dressed me in archival Chanel and sent me home in his Maybach, but my life was already falling apart. My boyfriend, Irving, claimed he had passed out early, yet his location data placed him at my best friend’s apartment until three in the morning. When I tried to run, I realized Ezra was already ten steps ahead, tracking my movements and uncovering the secret I’d spent twenty years hiding: my connection to the powerful Senator Grimes. I was trapped between a CEO who treated me like a line item on a quarterly report and a boyfriend who had been using me while sleeping with my closest friend. I felt like a pawn in a game I didn't understand, wondering why a man like Ezra would walk up forty flights of stairs on a broken leg just to make sure I was safe. "Showtime, Mrs. Gardner." Standing on the red carpet in a gown that cost more than my life, I watched my cheating ex-boyfriend’s face turn pale as Ezra claimed me in front of the world. I wasn't just an assistant anymore; I was a weapon, and it was time to burn their world down.
