Dante knocked at her door but no response came from the other side.

"Maya?" he called, his brows furrowing in concern. The door opened a moment later revealing Maya.

"You woke me. What happened?" she asked, rubbing her eyes. Dante drew her into a hug, craving comfort in the warmth of her soothing touch.

"I am tired," he murmured in her hair, voice laced with exhaustion. His confession was met with a brief silence until she broke it with her question.

"How is your dad?" she asked.

"Better but doctors will keep him under observation for a day," he informed her, nudging his nose down the slope of her neck.

"Have some rest then," she suggested, trying to move away from him. He, instead, squeezed her closer and sniffed her hair.

"Dante?" she called when he didn't move or speak for a long moment. He hummed against her skin, sending shivers down her spine.

"You should sleep," she suggested again.

"Can we talk?" he asked. He didn't want to sleep yet. A lot was going on in his head rig

    "How are you feeling now, Dad?" Dante enquired, assessing his father's face which appeared to have aged a decade overnight. He was still bound to the hospital bed but much better. "How's the company?" his dad asked instead. Dante hesitated, struggling to form an answer. The company had been going downhill since the scandal broke. His team was working tirelessly to find the source of the leak, but hadn't gathered much yet. He suspected their rival company was behind it, but without solid evidence, he couldn't make any accusations."It will be better," Dante responded solemnly. Even though he didn't like his dad much, his sense of responsibility towards him still lingered. He didn't want his parents to suffer because of him. His dad was visibly disappointed with the answer. He looked away from him and fixed his eyes on the white wall across from him. "Your mother and I were discussing it. The media isn't ready to drop it no matter how much we bribe them. But we've found a way to stop

    "Maybe you should," came her unexpected reply. Dante glanced up at her, a frown creasing his brow."You want me to take a fiancee too?" he asked, his countenance hardening into a stern mask of shock. She averted her gaze, unable to meet his eyes. "That's the only way out," she explained, gazing blankly at the wall behind him. Dante clenched his jaw. His appetite vanishing in an instant. "Who says that?" he shouted, making her flinch. Wide eyes, she gaped at him as he seethed with barely restrained fury. This was the first time he had let his anger slip before her. But what could he do? The whole world was already conspiring to wrench them apart and now she was also advocating them. How could she be so cool suggesting that when he couldn't even imagine a moment without her? The ache of that possibility twisted in his gut, igniting an anger he couldn't contain. She swallowed, not having expected such an explosive reaction from him. "People will forget about the scandal if you presen

    Dante was caught in a battle of emotions. She had somehow coaxed him into this but he was still not convinced. He didn't want to pretend to like someone else when she owned his whole heart. How would he even bring himself to look at another woman?"We have someone who can play your fiancee. She is perfect," Katty announced joyously. Dante frowned, not having expected them to find one so soon. "Who?" he questioned.Katty turned her face towards Eviana and flashed her a smile, "Eviana." After taking her name, she turned her attention to frowning Dante, "She is your childhood friend. People won't even doubt." Katty explained all smiley. It was beyond Dante as to how they even came up with such a shitty idea. "Have you lost it, Mom?" he questioned, his voice laced with sharp intensity. Katty's smile slipped followed by Eviana's. They both shared a confused glance before Katty asked him," "Why? I and your dad think you'll be most comfortable with her. She is..""Didn't you think about t

    Today, he was taking Eviana out on a lunch date. It was a pre-planned move to hint to the world that something was brewing between them. Maya adjusted his jacket's lapel, looking a bit lost in her thoughts. "What is it?" Dante questioned, subtly gesturing with his eyes towards the tiny frown etched across her forehead.She shook her head. He lifted her chin with his finger. His eyes reflecting a mixture of curiosity and concern as he asked again, "What is it?" "It feels strange," she shrugged and added, "to help you dress for your date with someone else." Her tone didn't convey jealousy but she would be lying if she said she was not jealous. "I won't go if you don't want me to," he said, his voice laced with heartfelt sincerity. She smiled. "I want you to go," she replied, placing her palm against his chest. He leaned in to kiss her but paused abruptly as the door burst open. "Are you ready?" Eviana chirped, walking inside the room. Maya immediately backed away from him, takin

She felt as if her heart was being constantly contorted by a barbed wire, twisting tighter ith each painful thought. Opening her eyes, she glanced down at Vincent's tiny face and pressed a kiss on his bald head. No matter how much it hurt, she had endure it for Dante's sake.Tonight the Martinez' were hosting the announcement party to reveal Dante's engagement to Eviana.

How are you handling a company is beyond me," Eviana playfully taunted as Dante struggled to put a hairpin in her hair. Her hairpin had slipped

    Maya's gaze drifted over to Eviana and Dante, engrossed in conversation with other guests. Katty was beaming with pride as she introduced Eviana to her friend. As she watched them, she couldn't help but remember when Katty had once proudly introduced her in the same way. How time changed. Now, she was nothing more than a thorn in her side. "Should I get you a drink?" Miguel asked, claiming back her attention. His bushy brow was raised. She blankly stared at him for a brief moment before shaking her head in no."I am fine," she declined politely, allowing a small smile to grace her lips. The man smirked, leaning into her slightly. "You are way more than just fine, Senorita," he whispered to her before straightening back. His green eyes glittering with playful interest. The old Maya would have had the perfect comeback but now, her mind drew blank. She cast a nervous glance at her parents, to find them engaged in conversation with other people. She inwardly struggled to come up with

    It was a narrow escape. The instant they stepped into the stall, the door flung open. Maya buried her face in his chest as the heels click echoed in the quiet bathroom, probably approaching the countertop. Dante had pinned her against the wall, her legs tightly coiled around his waist, their roots intimately connected."Yes, mom. I am in the bathroom. I'll be there in a minute," Eviana's perky voice rung out. Maya tensed up, realising it was Eviana. She drew back to steal a glance at him and gauge his expression. He was already looking down at her. Her worrieed blue eyes dulled locked momentarily with his assured silver ones before he suddenly leaned in and captured her mouth in a heated kiss. Her lips molded to his, responding with a passion that matched his intensity.As they kissed, his cock teasingly nudged against her tender spot. Her lips parted into a gasp, his tongue slipped into her mouth. He invaded her from both ends, pounding her in slow and deep strokes. Her mind was mu

    Lights dimmed with a spotlight shining upon the couple. Maya felt a suffocating pressure tightening around her chest as he stepped closer to Eviana. The spotlight was on them. Cheerings ceased in favor of pin-drop silence as the spectators anticipated his next move. Heartache was almost crippling but she couldn't just look away. Her misty eyes followed him intently as he inched closer to another woman. Eviana didn't back away, in fact, she gazed at him expectantly. The woman radiated pure joy, her lips curved into an excited, inviting smile. He looked conflicted for a moment before he finally leaned in. Maya couldn't retrain her tears from spilling while Eviana closed her eyes in eager anticipation. He had just leaned in when his phone rang out suddenly, blaring through the silent hall. He recoiled instantly and dug into his pocket for his phone. Eviana opened her eyes to find him away. Disappointment marred her features."I've to take this," Dante murmured before marching off. Evia

    She stared at him as he remained asleep. She was torn between her mind and her heart. Her heart was urging her to tell him everything but her mind was filled with doubts. How would she tell him that Paulo has her private pictures? It felt too shameful to share.After Paulo hung up on her, she called him several times again but he didn't answer. She was waiting for him to call her again so that they could trace her location. And the moment his location is traced, it will be over for him. She reached out with her hand and interlaced their fingers, her eyes never leaving his striking face. She knew she was way too rude with him tonight and the guilt of it sat heavily on her chest. Sin woke up to find her side of the bed empty. Sitting up, he ran his fingers through his messy hair while looking around for her. A few moments later, the door flung open, and walked in Maya, carrying a tray of coffee. Her face split into a wide grin as soon as her gaze landed on him. "Good morning," she ch

    "Earth calling, Maya. Do you copy?" Miguel teased, waving his hand in front of her face. Maya blinked, her eyes refocusing as she snapped out of her thoughts. "Sorry, what?" she asked, meeting his amused gaze. "I was wondering if you've prepared the papers for presentation," he said, unfazed by her lack of attention. "Yeah. It's done. I'll share it with you right away," she replied. "No need. I want you to present it today," he told her. Maya shot him a look of confusion. "Your dad will be presiding over the meeting. So make sure you impress him," he advised her, an encouraging smile on his face. Maya felt a tightness gripping her chest as memories of that night surfaced. The rift in her relationship with her dad had deepened when she left with Dante the following morning. Her dad didn't want her to go back but staying away from Dante was excruciatingly painful. "Hmm," Maya responded with a small smile. Even with little preparation, the presentation was a success. She was, no d

    Dante gazed down at his angel, a soft smile curving his lips. Gently, he wrapped a lock of her silky hair around his finger, twirling it absentmindedly. A few months ago, if someone had dared to tell him this moment would be real—that he would have her by his side—he might have laughed bitterly or even snapped their jaw for mocking his feelings. He still, sometimes, couldn't believe she was really here. He recalled the day she had suddenly appeared before his car. It was impossible to recognize her, as her face was caked in dirt, her clothes torn, and her eyes closed. She looked completely different from her earlier self, but something in him recognized her despite her disheveled state. He was utterly shocked and distraught to find her like that. But they were past those days. Now that they were together, he was determined to fill her life with love and happiness. He had already prepared her divorce papers and the day he would find Paulo, he'd make him sign the paper so that he could

    Eviana bristled as she saw them together, walking in through the door, hand in hand. Her fists clenched, jealousy burning through her veins.For a brief moment, her eyes met Maya's. The frown on Eviana's mouth quickly curved into a smile, but Maya responded with cold indifference. She wasn't going to get fooled by her fakeness any longer."I am so happy you came back," Eviana approached them, speaking in a sickly sweet voice. "This is my home. Of course, I was coming back," Maya responded curtly, not buying her lies. From today on, she was going to trust her instincts. Eviana's smile hardened. "Of course, of course. The way you left, I thought you wouldn't come back until Dante had ground his nose to your feet," she joked before coming to a stop in front of her and continuing, "Please, forget about everything that happened. I can understand how embarrassed you must have felt while apologizing to me. In honesty, I also didn't like Dante's forci." She stopped to gauge her reaction. "

    Dante stood taller, his piercing eyes firmly locked on her as she descended the stairs. "Come home with me," his silent command rang clearly in the air, his stare unwavering."I am staying here tonight," she answered, her voice cold. Dante's jaw tightened in strong disapproval. "Why?" he gritted out, his voice low and dangerous. "This is her home. She doesn't need your permission to stay here," Mr. Diaz cut in. "This is not her home," Dante asserted, gaze still locked with her. Maya looked away, breaking their eye contact. "You better leave now. I will not come with you," she refused, folding her arms over her chest as if protecting herself. Though her voice was persistent, the furrow in her brows betrayed the conflict brewing beneath her calm facade. She avoided eye contact with him, afraid she might give in to his demand if she did. "Stop acting like a child and come with me," Dante insisted, a hint of frustration in his voice. "Don't make me call guards, Dante," Mr. Diaz war

    "What's wrong with her?" Katty had written below the pictures she had shared with Dante over the chatting app.It was pictures of Maya and a man whose face wasn't clear. The photos were taken from behind the man, with only Maya’s face visible as he carried her in his arms. Dante burned with jealousy. His eyes burned holes through the screen as he struggled to suppress his rage. He didn't respond to Katty, instead, he called Maya. She didn't answer, further fueling his anger.Seething, he stormed out of his office and drove to hers. .......Maya was surprised to learn that Dante had come to see her. Despite her craving to see him, she told her P.A to not let him in. The bruise he had inflicted on her ego was still fresh and hurting. Despite her clear instruction, the door of her room flew open a few moments later, startling her. She looked up to find him stalking toward her. His face- a mask of pure rage. She got to her feet, feeling intimidated by the oppressive aura he exuded. "Wh

    "You okay?" Miguel questioned after noticing her dour mood. "I am good," Maya answered flatly. Her lips pursed by suppressed fury. "Alright. Get up. We have somewhere to be," Miguel prompted her. Maya frowned. "Where to? You didn't say anything about going anywhere" she asked"It was last minute," he stated. Maya drew a sigh before getting to her feet. He hadn't stopped calling and messaging her since morning. But her anger hadn't eased a bit. Actually, she was more hurt than angry. She cut yet another call and followed Miguel out. She was determined to not forgive him this easily. He pulled over in front of a restaurant. They took their seat at the table in the corner. "Who are we meeting?" Maya questioned, drawing out her tab from the bag to jot down notes. "They'll be here any minute," Miguel said, taking a quick glance at his watch. Maya nodded while Miguel beckoned a waiter."Two drinks for us," he ordered. Maya didn't object. She was also craving something strong to fo

    "Don't try me," he warned her, adopting a tone he had never used with her before. Maya was stunned, heartbroken. "What's wrong with you?" Maya retorted, not able to understand why he was being such a jerk to her. Dante let out an exasperated sigh. "Just apologize to Eviana," he said. "I won't," Maya refused outrightly. Dante clenched his jaw. "It's okay. I don't want any apology. Just don't fight on my account," Eviana interrupted. "She has slapped you. It's not a trivial matter. The least you deserve is an apology," Katty asserted, giving dirty eye to Maya. Dante took an angry stride towards her, his huge frame dwarfing hers. "Don't push it, Maya. Just do as I say," he gritted out. He loved her but he wouldn't support her where she was wrong. She needed to take responsibility for her mistakes. "Watch your tone with me," Maya seethed, not backing out. "And you want her to run this house with you. She is immature, who can't take responsibility for her own actions," Katty punct

    "Come in," she answered, her tone tinged with mild annoyance at the interruption. A man came in, carrying a large bouquet of roses. She got up from her chair, confused. The man extended the bouquet towards her. She stared at the bouquet, hesitant to take it."This is for you," he clarified, noticing her hesitation. "For me?" she asked, her curiosity piqued. She took the bouquet and began searching for a note. There it was nestled among the crimson blossoms. A knowing smile spread across her face as she realized who the sender was. "I'll take my leave," the man said. She nodded absently, her entire focus centered on the card. She opened the note, and her smile grew into a full-blown grin as she read it: "I Love You," in all caps. She gently brushed her fingers over the letters, her heart blooming like those flowers. You are my heaven. It is a simple sentence but deep enough to stir butterflies in her stomach. She couldn't stop smiling as she read and reread his confession. Bringi
