The next meeting Killian had, he finally let me go with him. I wore the bathrobe after I was done taking a bath. I stepped outside and saw Killian putting his long sleeve on. I walked towards the vanity mirror. I sat and started doing my morning care routine. After putting on my makeup, I walked towards the closet and chose clothes I could wear. I chose to wear a bodycon dress and a coat paired with three-inch black heels. Killian was still not done buttoning his long sleeve and got busy talking to someone over the phone. I walked towards him and fixed him. He glanced at me for a moment before he got back to the call.“Alright. I’ll review the papers...”After buttoning his long sleeve, I put on and fixed his necktie. I was just waiting for him to finish who he was talking to. He finally dropped the call. He wore his coat and held my hand as he started walking out of the room. I couldn’t help but stare at our intertwined hands. It felt so wrong yet so right. We arrive at a tall buil
“Don’t leave my side tonight.” It was Killian who reminded me that as we stepped outside the Lamborghini. I nodded my head at him and wrapped my arms around his extended arms. We walked down the red carpet. There were flashes of the camera, so I had to keep the smile written on my lips. It was a luxurious party. The people around looked very expensive and I knew for sure that they were. Soft music played in the background, adding to the liveliness of the place. It was Mr. Lux’s mansion where the party was held.“To more successful years of LuxURy Tech!” It was Mr. Lux on the center stage. His wide smile was across his lips as he raised his wine glass for a toss. We all raised our wine glass and drank it.There was a dance in the center. I was just sitting in my seat while drinking wine since Killian was busy talking to Mr. Lux. He was too far from my table and looked so busy. I let out a heavy breath. I felt alone here at my table while everyone was busy talking to someone or havi
Killian broke the kiss, I even chased his lips because I wanted more of it. Killian could really easily burn my whole body, and I craved for him terribly. I flinched at how cold his eyes were while staring at me. He was gripping my jaw tightly. “You are mine the moment you married me, Cassandra. Remember that.” His voice was harsh and firm. I bit my trembling lower lip and nodded at him. There was fear in my heart, but I could feel more happiness hearing his possessiveness. He looked jealous; I could feel it. Call me delusional or assuming, but I didn’t care. I wouldn’t mind being under his mercy. “Yes, Killian. I’m sorry about earlier.” My voice was soft, I caressed his arms to calm him. I leaned and kissed him softly. “Let’s go home.” “No. We are not going home.” He was staring at me darkly and full of lust. My forehead creased. “We’ll go back inside?” He gritted his teeth. He looked like he didn’t like what I just said. My heart was beating too loud again. I was about t
“Hi!” I smiled at him and waved my hand as soon as I saw him inside an office. My smile faded when I saw that woman again, she was sitting on a chair in front of Killian’s table. What was she doing here? What was her name again, Seia? Seria? Whatever. She wasn’t that important to remember anyway. I took a step toward Killian. He was just eyeing me making me somehow conscious. The woman’s face crumpled; clearly, she didn’t want me here. I smirked silently and sat on Killian’s lap. He automatically circled his arms on my waist “Did you eat already?” My voice was soft and low. I smiled at him as I stroked his soft hair.He shook his head. ”I haven’t.” “Let’s eat outside?”My smile widened seeing him nodding his head. I didn’t know, but I liked this, even though sometimes Killian’s was so hard to read, and I was having a hard time figuring things out if he would like things–just like what I was doing to him right now. He didn’t complain, though; then I guessed he liked this. “So wha
I took a deep breath and sighed. I was trying to calm my nerves as I walked towards him and kissed his cheek. He just glanced at me for a second before he looked at his mother. I bit my lower lip. I didn’t know what to do anymore. They might end up fighting verbally here since they were not on good terms. “You paid all she bought?” Killian’s brow raised and his forehead creased as he looked at me with his dark and strict gaze. I was frozen for a moment because of how cold his voice was. I nodded my head slowly and my heart kept beating loudly. He let out a loud breath as if he couldn’t believe it, making me bite my lower lip. “You made my wife pay for that? Aren’t you embarrassed at all?” He clicked his tongue. He was so sarcastic as he said it to his mother. I couldn’t help but gasp at how rude Killian was. She was still his mother! His mother just laughed as if it was nothing before she looked at me and smiled softly. “Come on, Son. She offered to pay for this," she sai
It was hell. Literally hell. Killian was giving me a hard time with my work. The works of other people were given to me making me feel frustrated. I didn’t have a choice since he was the boss and even though he was my husband, I didn’t have the power over him. I was really tired and exhausted from all the work he had given me. I felt like I was not his secretary anymore. The reason why he was doing this? I didn’t know! Was it because I confessed? I let out a loud breath and closed my eyes as I leaned my head on the chair I was sitting in. I didn’t know that things would end up this way. He really wanted to get rid of this feeling I had for him, ha? As if it was easy to unlove a person who you ever loved for the first time. “I have somewhere else to go. Just commute for now.” It was Killian who talked. He was on my side here in the elevator. My lips parted before I pressed them tightly and refused to say a word. I was so tired to give a damn anymore, all I wanted was to
Heart thorned. My mind was messed up. My whole being weakened. I wiped the tears that were falling from my eyes and sighed deeply. My heart felt so heavy and clenched. I looked at the families who were having their bonds here in the park while I was just sitting here with a broken soul. My lips broke into a bitter smile. They looked so happy and alive. How I wished I had that kind of family. “And what is a beautiful lady doing here?”I heard a familiar voice making me look where that voice was coming from. I saw Mr. Rossetti sitting on the bench beside me. My lips parted and my eyes widened. “What are you doing here? Are you following me?” I asked, accusing him. He squinted his eyes and stared at me. “Did you cry?” My lips parted before I avoided his gaze. “W-What? I’m not.”“He is such a jerk for making a beautiful lady cry.” He was shaking his head and chuckling like he couldn’t believe it. I pressed my lips together and didn’t say a word. I just stared at nowhere. Good thing
I woke up on a different bed. It was Killian’s bed. I didn’t realize that I fell asleep here. I looked around the room, but he wasn’t there. I immediately rose from the bed and fixed myself. I wanted to cook for Killian. I smiled to myself as I finished all the food I cooked. After changing into decent clothes, I went outside the house. Our driver drove me to the company. I was really nervous as I hurriedly went to the Killian office, and there he was, busy with his work. Good thing that woman wasn’t here anymore. “Good morning, Killian!” He raised his head and met my gaze. I smiled at him widely as I went closer to his table. He was just eyeing and waiting for my next move.“I cooked this.” I was beaming with happiness as I put the tupperware on the table. “You should have your breakfast.”“I’m not hungry.” His voice was cold and distant. He went to his work again and didn’t glance at me. I took a deep breath, even though I knew how tiring this would be. I wouldn’t give up. “But
