Irene's POV:I never had that many friends. I never had friends, to be honest. I just had people who would be in my life and walk away at their own time. I was an introvert for sure. But I was a bit self indulged too. It was true no one really cared for me, except Stacy (but she was young), But I never cared for anyone either. And that's not okay, no matter at which level you are. I cared for him. Truly. I worried for him, when I saw those false allegations. People were talking about him being cancelled. My heart skipped every time he was considered finished. And this was something new to me of course. That had never happened before. Something besides my studies or financial matters occupied my mind. I wished for something other than grades and a better job. I wanted him to be happy. To be proud of his position as he always was.His album was getting famous. He was back. People were talking about him again. He was being praised. I saw everything. Heard every news about him. Every wor
Kian’s POV:The airport was all packed, the air electric with anticipation. Their excitement was palpable, as my fans waited for me. Although I came unannounced, still the waving of banners and roar of the crowd was powerful.Little did they know, it was the least of my worries. I adjusted the collar of my shirt in front o f the mirror as I heard the muffled cheering of the crowd through the thick walls of a specially vacated room at the airport just for me to dress up when I reached London on my private jet. Raven insisted that I should have a dressing up session before appearing, as the media was also there.“It’s clear,” Raven announced. With a nod, I turned and walked out of the room. The noise of the crowd intensified as I took more steps. When I was finally out, the roar of the crowd hit me like a wave. Flashing lights and a sea of faces stretched in front of me. But my eyes yearned for her. I waved my hands in acknowledgment of their efforts. Reporters asked questions of all
Irene's POV:I woke up wrapped in Kian’s arms, feeling the warmth of his body radiating against mine. His steady breaths brushed gently against the back of my neck, a reminder of the intimacy we shared the previous night. I kept my eyes closed, relishing the moment, but my mind couldn’t help but drift into a whirlpool of self-conscious thoughts.How did I end up here, in the embrace of such a handsome man? The question lingered, gnawing at my insecurities. I felt like a puzzle piece that didn’t quite fit, an imposter in this serene environment. As much as I tried to quell the unease, it surged within me, threatening to overshadow the happiness that should have been dominant.I turned slightly, just enough to catch a glimpse of his face. Even in sleep, Kian looked perfect. His chiselled features were softened by slumber, a faint smile playing on his lips as if he were dreaming of something pleasant. It was not okay for me to think this way. The warmth he caused in my heart was more tha
Kian’s POV:As I took out my phone, it was already ten. It was my time to leave. I grabbed my car keys from the table, causing the heads of two of my best friends snapped in my direction. “Already?” Quinn arched his brows.“Uhh, don’t wanna sleep on the couch. She gets really grumpy when I am late.” I said hanging my jacket on my arm.“No matter how much I try It’s really too much for me to get used to this ideal husband's behaviour.” I chuckled at Raven’s comment. “Are you really this scared of her, I mean she doesn’t looked like she would ever look horrible enough to scare the sh*t out of you.” I could see the honesty in his eyes.The truth she never looked horrible, she looked a bit scared herself. Whenever she would shout at me, I sensed the uncertainity in her eyes. Wanting to know if it did affect me. I wanted to give her the assurety that her offence did matter to me. That she wasn’t just some random girl. I took her as my….. Wife. because to me there was nothing left to che
Irene’s POV:I watched at my outfit for hundredth time. Checking all the criterias that I had build in my mind considering it’s a not so personal dinner. I was here as his wife. Sara, Raven’s girlfriend looked friendly and bubbly. Which I didn’t see in many of Kian’s acquaintances. She was a redhead. Beautifully slaying the maroon coloured outfit. Her features were very prominent. She looked confident. Well, it was understandable since she was handling real estate business all herself. That wasn’t inherited but built by herslef. Okay, that was impressive. The table was set with all the delicious meals. I was sitting on the chair, revising all the table manners I had once learned. “My chief’s special soup,” she said as put the bowl of soup on front of me. I smiled as I dived into it.“That’s amazing” I praised genuinely. She gave me a cheeky girin. She was outgoing, that eased my anxiety a lot. I was wearing a beige coloured not so short dress. I skipped necklace and just wore silver
Kian’ POV:Five minutes till the meeting start. Long time to stare at the picture Irene just sent showing off her new outfit. Such a tease, deliberately blurring her face. When she knew I hated it. Another picture. her face was not blurred thank God. Hair tied in a ponytail. For so many reasons, I had grown quite liking for this hairstyle. I chuckled at the thought. “Though I’d say hi personally,” I thought it were my ears ringing because there was no way I just heard Mona. As I turned my rolling chair, I came into reality. It was her. My eyebrows pinched at the sight, not sure what to really say. She looked thinner. And for some reason she seemed calmer. Her smile looked genuine, not to mention that I knew it wasn't. “What are you doing here?” Was my question. Her outfit was surprisingly unrevealing. It looked like she was finally cleaning her shi*t or just pretending. None of it was my concern.“For the meeting, you forgot? Tatte company is in the highest sponsor category.” It wa
Irene's POV:“Mona?” I blinked. It felt like time stopped. My heart thumped harder as my eyes tried to shove the reality into my face. It was really her, but, with him?“Kian?” As I looked at his face. It was a new revelation. How a nervous Kian looks. Blood left his body. He looked pale. Eyes wide with fear? I don't know, I don't fuc**ing know. What was this witch doing here, out of all the places in his office. Near my man.The day was extremely boring at university. Some classes were cancelled. Upcoming annual fare at university was driving people crazy. It was necessary for me to participate too. So when Margret asked to join her, it didn't feel wrong. She proposed to me to hang out some more. Because, it felt boring as compared to spending rest of the day with him. So I called Robert and went home. Prepared snacks to pack for him. It was a new recipe for waffles I had discovered recently on Pinterest. I changed my outfit to a floral dress. Kian loves dresses on me, according to h
Kian's POV:Two weeks and a half had passed since the fight that happened. I regretted everything I said in anger. For that I tried to make up for her everytime I got the chance. Sometimes in the form of flowers, chocolates other times I helped her feeling good.Well, she didn't mention the incident again. Not that I was unaware of the mental war she must have been going through. But still, there was change. She was trying.A perfect traditional date. In a fancy restaurant. Was a good change. We never really did typical couple things, and doing this felt new. She wore a dress, sky blue in colour. I was sure, I had never seen her in this colour before. She looked ethereal and she wasn't believing even after the hundredth time I was telling her.“Maybe it's the makeup then, I mean it looks too much.” she whined.“You look beautiful, that's my final answer. No matter what you think.” I stated sternly.She rolled her eyes, amusingly. The waiter came and started serving the dishes. I loo
