Ethan sat in the corner of his small, dingy cell, hunched over a bowl of flavorless rice porridge. He had been in this Thai prison for what felt like an eternity, and the bland food was starting to take its toll on him. He had vomited several times already, unable to stomach the tasteless mush.

Just as he was forcing himself to take another bite, the sound of footsteps echoed down the hallway. Ethan's heart raced as the prison warden appeared in front of his cell. The man's stern expression told Ethan all he needed to know. His execution date had been set.

Ethan felt the bile rise in his throat as the warden informed him that he had three months left to live. He couldn't believe it. He had always known that he was wrong, that he was an asshole. But he had never truly faced the consequences of his actions until now.

Desperate, Ethan tried to bribe the warden with the little money he had left. But the man just laughed in his face. "You think your money can buy you a way out of this?" he

  • Charming the CEO   Chapter 1: First Time

    Today was the day of my high school reunion, and to be honest, I wasn't really looking forward to it. While all my friends had moved on to successful careers and relationships, I was still single and struggling to make ends meet."I just want this day to be over," I whispered to myself as I took a seat on the sofa, nursing a glass of wine.The wine was expensive, I could tell. One of our friends had become a successful politician and was sponsoring the event. I took a sip and let the rich flavor wash over my taste buds.As I looked around the room, my eyes landed on Ethan. He was one of the guys I had a crush on in high school, but I never had the courage to tell him. He looked just as handsome as I remembered, and my heart skipped a beat when our eyes met."Hey, are you okay?" Ethan asked, approaching me with a concerned look on his face.I nodded, trying to play it cool. "Yeah, I'm just feeling a little out of place here."Ethan sat down next to me and we started talking. Before I k

    It's been a month since that steamy night with Ethan at our high school reunion. He had promised to keep in touch, but so far, radio silence. I let out a sigh. What was I expecting? Men and their promises, right?I was still at the office, burning the midnight oil to finish some last-minute paperwork for a big presentation the next morning. I popped in my earbuds and cranked up my favorite playlist to keep me focused and awake."Come on, Luna, you can do this. Just power through tonight, and you can relax tomorrow," I muttered to myself, trying to psych myself up.I was so engrossed in my work that I didn't notice my boss, Mr. Lorrick, sneaking up behind me until it was too late. Suddenly, I felt a hand on my butt. I jumped and spun around, my heart racing. Mr. Lorrick was standing there, leering at me with a creepy smile.I tried to move away, but he grabbed me with both hands, pinning me against the desk. "Luna, wait a minute," he said in a tone that sent chills down my spine."Mr.

    Everything was happening so fast. One moment, Ethan was inviting me to his house, and the next, we were sitting in his living room with his mother staring at me with a serious expression. I tried to refuse Ethan's invitation, but he insisted as if something urgent had already happened.As soon as we sat down, Ethan's mother turned to me with a stern look on her face. I couldn't shake off the feeling that she hated me for some reason."Luna, did you really have sex with Ethan?" she asked in an exasperated tone. I was taken aback by her question. It was unethical and inappropriate, but Mrs. Duncan's piercing gaze made it clear that she expected an answer.I looked at Ethan, hoping for some support, but he was strangely silent. I whispered to myself, "Wait, is Ethan afraid of his mom?"Before I could ask Ethan, his mother slammed her hand on the table in front of us. "Luna, I just have a simple rule. If I ask a question, then answer it. I've asked twice already," she said, her tone loud

    I groaned as the sound of my alarm blasted through my ears, making me wish I could just hit snooze and roll over for another five minutes. But I knew that wasn't an option. With a sigh, I reached over and silenced the alarm, burying my face in my pillow for just a moment longer."Ugh, I just want to sleep for a month and wake up when everything is better," I muttered to myself, staring up at the ceiling. But my stomach had other plans. It growled loudly, reminding me that I hadn't eaten anything since the night before.Reluctantly, I dragged myself out of bed and shuffled into the kitchen. I opened the cupboards and scanned the shelves, hoping against hope that some miracle had occurred overnight and my empty kitchen would now be stocked with food. But of course, that wasn't the case. All I had was a sad little packet of instant noodles.I couldn't help but think of that old fable about the man who lived on instant noodles. He would cut them in half and save one piece for later, and s

    As the days dragged on, I remained jobless after being let go from my previous employment. But for some reason, today I was feeling oddly optimistic, as if a stroke of good luck was just around the corner.I was casually enjoying a bowl of cereal at the kitchen table when my phone buzzed with an incoming call. The number was unfamiliar, so I hesitated for a moment before answering."Hello?" I answered, trying to sound as professional as possible."Hi, is this Luna?" a voice on the other end asked."Yes, speaking," I replied."Great, this is Amy from Green Earth Solutions. We received your resume and we're interested in doing an interview with you. Would you be available tomorrow at 10am?"I was taken aback. I had applied to so many jobs in the past few weeks, I couldn't even remember which ones I had applied for. But I was in desperate need of a job, so I quickly agreed."Yes, that works for me. Where is your office located?" I asked."Our office is located at 123 Main Street. Do you

    Just another day at the office, or so I thought. But today, Eddie had something else in mind. He took me to a meeting with some government representatives, and as soon as I saw their faces, I knew something was off.I quickly searched the news on my phone, and my suspicions were confirmed. These two men were corrupt, and they had come for a piece of Eddie's company's thousand-acre land."Sorry, Eddie, but we can't approve your permit unless you pay us some money," one of the politicians said, a man from the Anti-Corruption party. "One million dollars per person should be enough."I was shocked. I had never seen such blatant corruption before. But Eddie remained calm, insisting that his land was legal and all the permits were in order."Eddie, have you forgotten who we are?" the politician continued. "We can easily cancel your farm's license."Eddie shook his head and pulled out a stack of papers. "I've read the laws, ministerial regulations, and presidential regulations, and there's n

    Eddie was already dressed in a tailored suit, his hair slicked back and a determined look in his eyes as he paced back and forth in the hotel room. Luna had just woken up, her hair tousled and her eyes groggy. She rubbed the sleep from her eyes and sat up in bed, taking in Eddie's serious demeanor."What's going on?" she asked, her voice still thick with sleep.Eddie stopped pacing and turned to face her. "We need to prepare before we go to the auction," he said, his tone grave.Luna's eyes widened in understanding. "Right, the auction," she said, throwing off the covers and swinging her legs over the side of the bed.Eddie nodded. "I've made arrangements for us to go to a clothing store. It's one of the best in Paris and they have branches all over Europe. It's also my store," he added with a small smile.Luna raised an eyebrow. "Your store?" she asked, surprised.Eddie nodded. "One of many businesses I own. I figured it would be the perfect place to find you something to wear to the

    Luna and Eddie sat on a bench near the police station, the cool evening breeze rustling the leaves around them. Eddie's eyes were fixed on the station, his mind racing with thoughts. Luna, on the other hand, was deep in thought, trying to piece together the mystery of why Lyra Thomson was working with the other, evil Lyra.Eddie turned to Luna, "Have you figured out what Lyra's plan is? What do you think she's going to do now?"Luna looked up, her eyes meeting Eddie's. "I think I have an idea. She took my necklace and ring, right? Maybe she's planning on selling them."Eddie's eyes widened in surprise. "That's a smart deduction, Luna.""You are right about that. And not only that, that Lyra has other plans regarding the jewelry she stole.""Yeah, but that's the jewelry we gave her..." Luna said quietly with guilt but Eddie gave a small laugh."Never mind that, it was our last wish to solve your problem"Luna smiled weakly. "We have to save her, Eddie. We can't let her get mixed up in

    Eddie's heart raced as he quickly assessed the situation. Fifteen men had surrounded him and Luna, their eyes filled with malice. He could see the fear in Luna's eyes, but he knew he couldn't let it show. He had to protect her.Despite Eddie having taken down several people earlier, the thugs remained undeterred and showed no signs of fear.He took a deep breath and focused, his training kicking in. He knew he couldn't take on all fifteen men at once, but he could handle a few at a time. He scanned the group, looking for the weakest link.Two men stepped forward, their fists clenched. Eddie knew they were the ones he had to take down first. He braced himself, ready for the attack.The first man lunged at him, but Eddie was quick on his feet. He sidestepped the attack and delivered a swift kick to the man's ribs, sending him sprawling to the ground.The second man came at him with a roar, but Eddie was ready.

    Luna sank deeper into the bubbling jacuzzi, letting the warm water soothe her tired muscles. The private island was a paradise, and Ethan's house was the perfect getaway. She closed her eyes and let out a content sigh, feeling the stress of the past few weeks melt away.This is the best way to pamper yourself after the nightmare Luna had last night.After her bath, Luna wrapped herself in a fluffy towel and made her way to her room. She noticed a missed call on her phone from a number she didn't recognize. Curious, she dialed it back and waited for the other person to pick up.The voice on the other end was hysterical, sobbing uncontrollably. It took Luna several moments to realize it was Lyra Thomson, the owner of the flower shop she had visited with Eddie in the past."Lyra, what's wrong? What happened?" Luna asked, her heart racing.It took several minutes for Lyra to calm down enough to speak coherently. When she finally did, her words sent a chill down Luna's spine."It's Emily.

    The sun was setting, casting a warm golden hue over the pristine beach of Eddie's family's private island. Luna sat under a large umbrella, her toes digging into the soft sand as she watched the waves gently lap against the shore. She had always loved the ocean, its vastness and mystery a source of endless fascination for her.Luna's thoughts were interrupted by the sound of footsteps approaching. She turned to see Eddie's mother, a kind-faced woman with a gentle smile, making her way towards her. Luna stood up to greet her, feeling a little nervous. She had always been intimidated by Eddie's mother, who seemed to carry an air of authority and wisdom about her."Hello, Luna," Eddie's mother said, her voice warm and inviting. "I hope you're enjoying your time on the island.""Yes, thank you," Luna replied, smiling politely. "It's beautiful here."Eddie's mother took a seat next to Luna under the umbrella, her eyes scanning the horizon. They sat in silence for a moment, the sound of the

She had long awaited this moment on the private island owned by Eddie's family.The night sky was a canvas of twinkling stars, and the air was filled with a sense of tranquility. Eddie and Luna stood on the balcony of the big house on Eddie's family's private island, gazing up at the heavens. Eddie was adjusting the large telescope, while Luna waited patiently by his side.After all the trouble with Luna before, Eddie was relieved that they could finally relax and enjoy each other's company. He glanced over at Luna, who was looking up at the stars with a sense of wonder in her eyes. Eddie couldn't help but feel a sense of affection for her."There, it's all set up," Eddie said, stepping back from the telescope. "Take a look."Luna eagerly approached the telescope and peered through the eyepiece. She gasped as she saw the stars up close, their light twinkling brighter than ever bef
