Aria found herself lost in a pile of duties at King Enterprises. Her desk was overflowing with documents, plans, and business discussions, but her mind was far away lost in thoughts of someone else. Marcus' planned threats was another frustration she was dealing with, the danger that had followed them yesterday, and, most importantly, Heathen's change in personality and how he protects and trust her all replayed out in her head like a continuous loop.She felt his power, his stubbornness, and, behind it all, an unsaid intimacy that kept her chest warm throughout the chaos that followed both of them. Now, seated under the bright office lights, she shook her head, attempting to clear up the fuzz in her head because at this point it was getting annoying. This was not a moment for interruptions. There was too much at threat and risk, and her ability to stay focused was essential to the project's progress and, maybe, their own safety. As she was concentrated on her project a loud pie

The following week passed in a flurry of activity and work, but the project’s progress brought a sense of accomplishment to everyone involved. Aria and Heathen had managed to build and improve operations, gaining the trust of King Enterprises’ board and employees. However, they knew the war wasn’t over. Marcus might have backed down for a bit now, but his threat lingered like a shadow over their every move because he won’t back down easily. Late evening in following week, Aria sat in her office, reviewing the revised project timeline and material. Her desk was filled with endless blueprints, contracts, and a steaming cup of hot coffee she had barely touched. The faint chit chatter of the office cleaning staff echoed in the distance, but otherwise, the whole floor was silent. A knock at the door broke her focus and she came out of her trance. “Come in,” she called, her voice filled with fatigue and tiredness. Heathen stepped inside, his undeniable presence filling the room. He wa

The next morning atmosphere was thick with stress and tension as Aria entered the King Enterprises office building. Although the sun blazed brightly outdoors, the upcoming meeting with Harper placed a shadow over her mind and thoughts. She rehearsed the strategy Heathen and she had developed, determined to carry it out. Aria walked into the stunning lobby entrance and saw Heathen waiting for her near the elevators. His sleek grey suit and strong demeanor expressed power, and authority but his expression was steely, a clear indicator of his concentration on the task ahead. Heathen saw her approaching and his gaze softened a little. He waited for her to join him in the elevator."You are prepared for this?" Heathen spoke as she joined him."As prepared as I'll ever be," she said, shifting the bag on her shoulder.The elevator ride to the top level was silent, but their mutual determination was obvious. Heathen's jaw was set, and his eyes held the steely determination Aria had grown t

The anxiety in the air was obvious as Aria walked into King Enterprises' sophisticated office the next morning. Her actions of the previous days were bothering her, yet they had also sparked a flame within her a commitment not to allow Marcus Stone or anyone else degrade her abilities or value. She pressed the elevator buttons and the doors opened. Some employees greeted her and some waved towards her. She greeted them back with a smile but she could still feel the bitterness of her mood.As she stepped inside the elevator, she had a quick glimpse of herself in the reflected glass. Her face was stern, and her shoulders were straight. She gave the impression of a competent expert, yet behind the surface, doubt remained. The false story and unknown technical problems were upsetting her, but she refused to let it show. When the elevator doors lifted to the highest floor, Anna recognized her with her usual quick professionalism. "Mr. King is in a conference but has asked you to meet h

What he'd witnessed through the day flooded through his head, but one thought loomed larger than all the others: Aria Chen.He couldn't deny that she had impressed him, not just with her work but with her poise in the face of Marcus's subtle intimidation. There was a fire in her, a strength that reminded him of the person he used to be before tragedy had hollowed him out.But that fire also made her a target.Heathen knew Marcus wouldn't stop at veiled threats.

Later that night, Aria sat in her tiny apartment, littered with scattered blueprints and a laptop. Yet, she just couldn't seem to settle into anything. Her thoughts were back with Heathen King and all he had shared; his vulnerability stayed with her, haunting her like a whispered whisper.The man behind the ruthless billionaire persona was more interesting than she could let herself admit. He wasn't what she had expected.Her phone buzzed, pulling her out of her thoughts. It was a message from Anna:Mr. King has requested your presence at a high-profile client meeting tomorrow. Be at the office by 9 a.m. sharp. Dress professionally.Aria frowned. Why would Heathen bring her into something like this? She had expected to stay at the back, taking care of technicalities.
