Ashley I love that feeling of peace and comfort when I close my eyes and tap my finger, lost in thought. It's like the world fades away for a moment. Though staying here is one hell of a thing, you know? It really weighs on me, knowing that I'll be working in the very company that used to belong to my father. It's a heavy burden. Sometimes, I wish I could turn back time to that night when I sneaked out with Layla. Maybe then, I could fix everything. But sadly, it's just not possible.Because everything that's been going on in my life lately is just slowly eating away at me. I've got so much on my plate, so many responsibilities that I can't seem to find any solutions for. And to top it all off, Layla has completely disappeared since that incident after our encounter in the hallway that day. But you know what? sighing, I hissed out. “Not like I care to know her way about though,” However, I was still lost in my own thoughts when out of the blue, I heard a knock on the door. It
As the day drifted by, I couldn't bring myself to tidy up my things, if there were any to tidy at all because I had done nothing or gone through any files since morning. I found myself sinking into the back seat, my head gently leaning back, eyes shut tight. My mind was in turmoil, thoughts swirling endlessly around about the looming announcement. Honestly, I am contemplating on what to do, does he have to publicize it? What does he intend to do with this? But he signed a damn contract!! Signing, I took a deep breath, realizing the so-called monster had been next to me this whole time as the driver drove us to who knows where. Just looking at him, eyes closed, head leaned back, he appears so calm and innocent. It's hard to believe how dangerous he is. I feel the urge to strangle him, but as I gaze at his tempting red lips, I hesitate. Memories started flowing in as I continued staring at those lips, if not that he was a demon…… a dangerous alien that day, I could have so much enjoy
My head was buzzing as I took in the sight of Mason standing in front of me. His shoulders were hunched, his hands crammed in his pants pocket. His hair looked crazy like he hadn't been taking care of it for a long time. It reminded me of how I always comb and style it whenever we go out. As the memories rushed back, I instantly shut my eyes, fighting back the feelings. When I reopened my eyes, they slowly trailed speechlessly down his neat clothes—a pair of blue jeans and a plain white shirt with a canvas. He looks absolutely amazing, just like always. I was still in shock, and I went completely slack, causing my phone to clatter to the floor. "Miss..." the boutique owner suddenly muttered, though she was kind enough to catch the phone before it hit the ground."Here, your phone… Miss," the woman muttered, looking confused. Reaching my trembling hands forward, I quickly snatched it before turning back and rushing back to the dressing room. “Ash……” I heard my name followed by manl
OliviaI was filing my nails while sitting on the couch when *beep* suddenly a message popped up on my screen. Out of curiosity, I dropped the nail filer on the small glass table in front of me and quietly picked up my phone. I clicked on the message and boom... It took me to a passage on Instagram from one of my favorite bloggers. “Mr. Damien and his wife were spotted in the Wanderlust boutique this afternoon. That's so exciting! Did you happen to see them yourself or did you hear it from someone else?" The blogger wrote under a picture capturing Damien and of course, my half-sister in front of the boutique hand in hand walking inside through the boutique door.Wait, isn't Wanderlust one of the biggest feminine boutiques in the world? No way!!! Damien wouldn't need a female dress, so it's obvious that he took that woman shopping. But for what exactly?! This news feels like a sharp sword slicing through my heart.As I clicked on the comments, a rush of annoyance flooded over me,
Damien ***beep. beepThe gate was instantly pushed open and our car smoothly drove in, stopping in front of a massive white glass mansion. Silence stretched out as I sat there, staring at the house that I had grown to despise so much. It had been five years since the last time I set foot in here, but here I am again. It's funny how life works, isn't it? We can't run away from home for long. Though If it wasn't for the old man threatening to pull his company away from me, I wouldn't be here today. I could have proven that saying wrong. The opening of my side door jerks me back to reality. Gripping the bouquet tightly, I glance at the petite frame beside me. She's completely lost in her thoughts as I watch her stare in awe at the gorgeous mansion through her side mirror. It's such a breathtaking sight!The house is damn fine, but I gotta be honest, I'd rather sleep on the dark, cold streets than spend a night here. But damn! She looks stunning in that dress. It fits her perfe
Ashley Electricity crackles down my body as he roughly takes my lips in his. I'm caught off guard, and without thinking, I instinctively clasp his shirt, seeking support as my legs start to weaken. It's as if a switch flips in my mind. His touch has this magnetic pull, and suddenly an unfamiliar emotion begins to stir in my heart.I gulped nervously, attempting to push myself away from him, but my efforts were futile. At that moment, a heavy sensation pooled in my panties, making me acutely aware of the stickiness between my inner thighs. I shrank within his tight grip, feeling as if a powerful wave crashed over my trembling body. Biting down on my tongue, I desperately try to stifle the moan that's on the verge of escaping. My nails dig into his skin, but he remains unyielding. What's going on with him? Oh god... I can feel his boner, and just when I think things can't get any more intense, the entrance door suddenly swings open, jolting him back to his senses."Sir, Damien!!"
“Who is this pretty lady standing over there?” My heart skipped a beat as Damien turned to look at me. I could feel my heart pounding, and the silence in the room seemed to stretch on forever. Suddenly, nerves took hold of me, and I regretted clearing my throat earlier to draw their attention. Now, I was worried that this demon might ridicule me or even introduce me as his personal assistant.But to my surprise, a small smile quickly breaks through his lips. "She is my wife," he said, his gaze still fixed on me. Boom! My heart skipped a beat and somersaulted several times as our eyes locked. "Wife," Mrs. Caterina muttered confusedly before a wild smile broke through her old wrinkled face. "You mean Mrs. Ashley...?" She turned to stare at Damien with curiosity. "Yes..." he turned and nodded gently at her.And just like a flash, someone rushed towards me and embraced me tight in a motherly hug. I was caught off guard and felt the urge to nervously back away, but the warmth that
AshleyFilling the room with an electric atmosphere, the DDW hotel in Los Angeles buzzed with the presence of wealthy individuals. Damien Albrecht's grand party for the opening of their new company was the talk of the town.Damien Albrecht, the supposed heir to the Albrecht group and the world's youngest billionaire, was known for his involvement in various businesses, including rumors of drug dealings and leading a small mafia group. His name alone struck fear into the hearts of those who dared to cross his path. The mere mention of his name sent shivers down the spine. A human with no heart, a heartless, ferocious demon, and a nightmare to whoever obstructs his way at least that was how the rumors described him to be. Although I had only seen him through the media, Damien Albrecht had become my ideal man. Despite the rumors surrounding his dark and mysterious reputation, I couldn't help but feel excited about the prospect of seeing him in person. My anticipation grew as I hugged mys
