PROLOGUE

"Miss  Evelyn Rose Collins it's your turn."the blonde woman told her in her robotic voice.

She cringed whenever she was called by her full name.She really wondered why it always triggered her.

She got up clutching her bag tightly.Sweat beads were glistering on her forehead though she tried her guts out to act normal but his name itself enough to bring someone's confidence on his/her knees.

She straightened her pencil skirt and moved to the huge glass door in the end of the isolated corridor.

"May I come in Sir?"she timidly knocked at the door.Her confidence dropped into her stomach.

"Come in Miss Collins."she heard the manly voice which resulted her body hairs stood at the end .

Taking a deep breath ,she entered inside.Her stomach churned when her eyes found the most handsome man alive sitting in front of her.

His captivating stormy grey eyes and firm thin lips were perfectly sculptured by Greek Gods.

"You may sit."he said folding his both hands on the wooden table.

She sat on the opposite side of the large rectangular table.

"You're late Miss."his tone turned stiff. Displeasure clearly visible on his perfectly carved face.

"What?"her eyes quickly snapped to her wrist watch but next moment she frowned.

"Its just two minutes Mr. Black"she frowned at him.

"For me you are and I hate people who do not respect the value of time."he greeted his teeth.Veins popped under his ears.

"Sorry Sir."she could only apologize as this was the job she must grab to support her family or the day was not so far when they would be on road.

"So you want this job right?"he questioned while he rocked back on his chair.

"Yes Sir."she felt embarrassed but he was the owner of the multinational company.The name of the company itself an honor to work in.

"Miss Evelyn you are still a university fresher with no practical experience in this field,so I can't hire you as an employee.Its Black Enterprises remember. It's reputation can be put on stake."he breathed coldly scanning her records.

Her heart sank to her stomach.Only she knew what this job meant to her but his decision was final.

"Its okay Sir.Thanks for giving your time to me.."she spoke hiding her tears and about to get up when he signalled her to sit.

"Miss Collins though I can't give you the job but I have a better offer for you.I hope you won't say no to it."

A smirk appeared on his face.His expression were indecipherable.

"What I have to do Sir."she masked her curiousity with confusion yet she was happy from inside but little did she knew what was coming next.

"Miss you have to marry me and provide me an heir within a year of our marriage."he spoke with the cunningness of a wolf.

She yanked her eyes at him but next moment they blazed with fire.She got up immediately from her place.

I looked down not dare to match his dark eyes.He eyes raked on me.

She clearly see a vicious smirk playing on his face but her eyes zoomed on his dark yet mystical orbs.

"Sorry Mr.I need this job but not on the cost of selling my dignity and pride.How dare you to ask me something like this shit."She greeted her teeth .

Instead of reacting to her report,he smiled like a devil in his darkest shade and stood up.

He reached upto her in predatory steps with his hands inserted in his pants' pockets.He leaned on the table.

"Just think again Sweetheart about your family.May be tonight they'll be shivering in the snowy winter street of London.You can save the roof on their head."his words made her imagine the worst nightmare of her life.

"You have ten minutes to decide Honey."he whispered into her ears and walked out of the room leaving her to battle with her love for her family and her SELF PRIDE.

Famous ruthless businessman Asher Black  was compelled to marry and produce an heir for the empire his grandfather built and he nurtured.

And for this purpose he forced Evelyn Collins to marry him to serve this purpose.
