2021-07-20 16:25:19Anastasia woke up the next day with a pounding headache. She sat up and placed her head on the headrest of the bed. She tried to remember what happened. She couldn't understand why her stepmother would call her suddenly and then instead of her, she met Liam. "Is she helping them?" She thought and felt a pang of hurt "I need to confront her before concluding, even if the situation says otherwise, I want to know what excuse she'd give" she freshened up and went downstairs for breakfast. Jonathan saw her and rushed towards her "Ana, how are you dear? Are you feeling alright? Do you want me to call the doctor?" He was extremely worried about his daughter. "Father! I'm alright. Calm down. I'm feeling much better now, but how did I get home?" She didn't know what happened after she was unconscious. She remembers someone pushed Liam off her. Did Hades reach in time? She had so many questions. As if on queue, the doorbell rang, Jonathan left her side, and went to open the door. All of them

Ana paced around her room, frustrated and restless. She didn't know what to think of her stepmother anymore, should she trust her or not. Suddenly her phone started ringing, it was an unknown number "Good Morning! Am I speaking with Anastasia Kimberly?""Yes, who am I speaking with?""Ms. Kimberly, I'm Jenny, this is regarding your internship with Moretti & Co.

He relaxed after seeing her laughing and couldn't help but stare at her. He suddenly smirked recalling her previous words "So this is a date, love?" His eyes glinting with mischief. Anastasia was once again flustered "Uh... No... I mean...She was just annoying," she said looking anywhere but him. "Yeah... She can be annoying most of the time" he chuckled."I can't believe you dated someone like that!" She said and once again laughed at his annoyed face."Yeah well everyone has that one ex whose a big mistake," he said rolling his eyes.The waiter came with the food and they went silent for a while however Anastasia pondered about asking a question that was stuck in her mind "So what's the story? Why did you two break up? ...... it's alright if you don't want to share...." She trailed off. Hades's face lit up as he thought that Anastasia was taking interest in him and his life "Oh no, don't worry, I don't mind at all. Well, she cheated on me with a rival" he shru

The days flew by quickly and uneventfully. Anastasia and Hades spoke daily in their free time and got a little close. Hades was still wary about her joining Moretti & Co., however, Anastasia reassured him again and again. It was her first day at work today and she was eager to start the internship. She was excited and was hoping she got Arthur Fabian as her mentor. He was a renowned designer and she had always admired his work. As soon as she entered the building she made her way to the receptionist"Hi, Good Morning, I'm Anastasia Kimberly, I have a meeting with Ms. Claire Dubois."The receptionist just nodded as if she was bored "10th floor to the right, her name will be mentioned on her cabin door, the elevator is on the left of this corridor," she said pointing in the direction. Anastasia just thanked her and went in the direction. 'Well, I just hope not everyone is as irritable as the receptionist' she thought to herself.Suddenly she bumped into

Hades's POV -I had just finished a meeting and relaxing in my cabin when my phone buzzed. I was exhausted with the back to back meeting and didn't want to talk to anyone but as soon as I saw who it was all the exhaustion drained out of my body. It was Ana "Hello love!" I always feel like a teenage boy talking to his crush when I talk to her."Hi Hades. Are you busy? I can call later if you want." she said."No I'm not busy. Just got over with a meeting""Oh! Well, guess who is going to be my mentor?"She sounded excited and happy. I just smiled as I knew who it was. All she had done these past few days was tell me how she admired that designer and how she dreamed of working with him."Is it who I think it is?" I asked knowing the answer very well and all she did was squeal with happiness. "Yes! Yes! Yes! It's Mr. Fabian, Hades I'm so happy. I can't wait to start my work, I hope i can impress him with my work. Do you think he'l

After dinner, Anastasia went to the balcony as the view was breathtaking while Hades prepared a glass of wine for the both of them. When he came back he saw her leaning on the railing of the balcony. The wind blew her hair, and he couldn't take his eyes off her. He slowly made his way towards her taking in all her beauty, "You wake up to this view every day?" She couldn't help but ask, as he gave her the glass of wine. Her gaze was still taking in the view. "Yes, I guess, but you could wake up to this view too, you know!" He said smirking. Anastasia looked at him confused, so he continued "I mean you can marry me so you can start living here with me and enjoy the view every day" he said nonchalantly as if he didn't just ask her to marry her again. She blushed, looking away at his comment, a smile tugging at her lips "That was a nice try Mr. Arrogant, but no thanks....I can just buy an apartment on another floor and live there. Why would I want to marry you just to enjoy the view

Anastasia walked inside looking lost, she didn't want to hurt him but this was best for both of them, she thought. She had hesitated to walk out the door but then her death played in front of her eyes like a movie, so she walked out. Cordelia saw her walking towards her room and approached her "Ana? What's wrong? Why are you crying?" She asked as if she was genuinely concerned about her but was marveling at the fact that Anastasia was crying. She didn't ask her out of concern but out of curiosity. Anastasia just looked at her with furrowed eyebrows and touched her cheek. She didn't realize that she was crying and wiped her face "Nothing! I'm tired.... I'll catch up with you later" she said blanblankly, started walking, but Cordelia had something else in mind. She grabbed her arm to stop her "Ana I'm just concerned about you. You know you can share anything with me right? I'm here for you" Ana scoffed at her, and pulled her hand out of her grip but didn't say anything. She wasn't in

Anastasia's POV-I woke up with my head pounding badly. I remember crying myself to sleep while thinking about my decisions. "Urgh! Ana get over it. You decided to walk away so deal with it" and slapped both my hands on my cheeks 'ouch! that hurt'. I had to get ready for my first day with Mr. Fabian. I have to stop sulking now, what's done is done! After an hour spent getting ready I made my way towards the breakfast table "Good Morning everyone" I said to no one in particular.I don't know why but I couldn't stop sulking, all I could think about was Hades and the hurt look on his face. The worst part is that I couldn't get over our kiss too. "Ana!" Father called out my nudging my shoulder. I looked

Anastasia's POV-"Hades! Get your boys to come down soon, we are getting late for Nova's graduation" I yelled at my husband. Yes, you guessed it right, we have two boys, twins- Lucian and Lucius, complete brats. If it weren't for the fact that they were scared of Hades, I wouldn't have been able to manage those two. Nova is graduated today and I can't help but feel, how time flew by so quickly. Hades and I still manage our companies and prepare Nova to take over mine. I still remember how those had proposed to me, it still brings extreme joy to my heart. Hades finally did go for a cliché by going down on his knees and asking me to marry him. The most surprising part would be the whole ordeal with Nova. The sweet child went on her knees too and give me a stack of papers asking me to be her mother. Those were her adoption papers. I couldn't have been happier that day. "Mom, I can't find my socks" I heard Lucian yell from his room. I didn't even step forward when an

Even through her struggle, he managed to tie both her hands to the bedpost. She wriggled and screamed for him to leave her, but he didn't bat an eye. He was enjoying this. When her yells became too out of control, he gagged her with a cloth. "You need to relax darling, how are we going to enjoy this if you keep being a brat." He leaned forwards and wiped her tears, caressing her cheeks. "So beautiful!" She could see the admiration along with lust in his eyes. He pressed himself on her, making her cry out more. "No one can save you this time Ana, not even Hades. You are all mine now. I won't allow anyone to be an obstacle and if they wish to be, then they will end up like Cordelia too" His grin sent chills down her spine. She looked at him with wide eyes, surprised at what he said. 'Did he kill her?' Looking how he had all her attention "You are right darling! I killed her, along with that unborn child." She w

They reached the place after a while, she was still feeling anxious to be alone with him. When they entered the place, she immediately recalled her childhood. She tried to mask her sadness but he already noticed it. "Come on, Let's get you settled inside." She hesitantly walked inside, not knowing what to do anymore. She could only sweet-talk her way out of this situation. "Do you know why I have brought you here darling?" She resisted an urge to roll her eyes at his question and smiled instead "I believe, my surprise is due" He chuckled and sat beside her, giving her a file. She already knew what it was but feigned innocence. "Here!" She read the contents in the file and this time didn't hold back from rolling her eyes "These are the shares your wife transferred you. How is it a surprise for me" She kept the file on the table and looked at him with a raised eyebrow. These documents were fake, but he didn't h

Aurora had to stay up late at her office, to finish up some pending work. Since it was past work time everyone had almost left. "Ms. Pierce, do you need anything else?" Her assistant asked "No! I've got it. You can leave for the day" She smiled gratefully and her focus immediately went back on the work at hand. After a while her phone rang, breaking her focus "Baby girl, the lawyer just called. The documents had been successfully changed and you have all the shares in your hand now. Liam doesn't know about it. He thinks, Cordelia signed away everything to him and yes, the lawyer has been paid. He won't open his mouth." She leaned back with a winning smirk on her face. "Thank you, Lucian! I'll take it from here.""Wait! Are you still working? Why aren't you home yet?" He asked worriedly."I had some urgent matters to deal with, it's almost done. I'll in some time" She said while reading her files again. He sighed as he was used to her working overtime "Fine! Call me if

Liam woke up with a pounding headache and tried to adjust his eyes to the light in the room. He looked around to see an unfamiliar house 'Did I hook up last night?' He thought at first, but seeing that nothing was amiss he disregarded that possibility. "You're awake!" He turned when he heard a familiar voice was dumbfounded 'I spent the night with her!' His eyes widened and tried to recollect what had happened. "Good morning! Here's the medicine and there's the bathroom. Freshen up and have breakfast. My assistant is here if you need anything. I got to go." She said nonchalantly and walked out. By the time he regained his senses, she was already gone. 'What happened?' He was confused when his phone rang aggravating his headache even more. He took the medicine first and then answered the call "Liam!" He got irritated "What is it, Cordelia?" She gulped, "You need to come home. I have something to say to you. It

That evening Aurora was at home, busy designing. This had become her way to relax her nerves after a tiring day. She was fixated on it when her doorbell rang. She walked towards it confused and checked the time.' It's dinner time, Who would be here at this time.' She thought but opened the door anyway. Hades stood leaning to the wall with a bag of takeout in his hand. She shook her head and smiled at the man in front of her. "I'm sure, you haven't had your dinner yet" She broke the silence and walked inside. She took the bag from his hand "Ah! My savior!" She said dramatically and went to prepare the dinner table. "You are still so careless! When will you start taking care of yourself?" He asked exasperatedly. She placed her arms around his neck and he instinctively held her waist and pulled her close "If I start doing that, then why would I need you" She said and pecked his lips. His lips curved into a smile

After a few days, Liam had started getting restless. However, he didn't know how to approach the matter with Cordelia at a time like this so he decided to give her time. He knew she had asked his lawyers to prepare the documents. That day he decided to pay Aurora a visit, so he went to her company. When he reached there, her assistant asked him to wait as she was in a meeting. He waited there patiently for an hour, thinking that it was his fault for not informing or taking a prior appointment. After an hour her office door opening and he saw Hades walking out and Aurora tailing behind him. Hades turned around and pecked her lips bidding her goodbye. Liam's frustration at this couldn't be controlled. His nostrils flared and his jaw clenched at the scene that unfolded in front of him. Hades walked away and it seemed like she didn't notice him standing there. After a few minutes, her assistant came and asked Lia

Liam came out of the bathroom and found her sitting in a daze "We should head back tomorrow. I have a few important things to take care of urgently" She was about to acknowledge and agree with him when her phone rang "Hello?" She said without checking the caller ID "Mrs. Arden, it's your mother…she...She's dead" Cordelia was surprised by the news and she felt incredulous. "How? What happened? She was fine when we left" uncontrollable tears came out of her eyes. Liam looked at her with confusion and stood beside her. "The doctor said she suffered a cardiac arrest" A hand flew up to her mouth and she sobbed uncontrollably. "Cordelia, What's wrong? Why are you crying like this?" He couldn't understand what was going on. "Liam, we need to go back now. It's mom! She's dead." One could see the surprise in his eyes, however, the sudden turn of events made him anxious 'Urgh! I had finally manipulated this stupid woman to give me everything and I was so close to getting it. That old ha

When Liam came back to their room, he saw Cordelia waiting for him. He ignored her and walked towards the bathroom. However, before he could enter he heard her calling him. He looked at her annoyed but didn't say anything, "You wanted me to prove to you that I loved you right? I've called my lawyer and asked him to prepare the share transfer documents. I don't care if I have anything or not, all I want is you to be with me, Liam. Promise me that you won't leave me" She asked, tears falling through her eyes. She looked defeated and tired, if it was someone else then they would have found her pitiful. Liam was happy but his face was brimming with apathy. He scoffed "Stop fooling me Cordelia, I won't believe you till I see those papers signed by you in my hands. I won't believe your words, for all I know you could just be trying to coax me to not divorce you " He turned but she stopped him again"No, these aren't just empty words. As soon as we reach back home, I'll complete the formali
