DANELLE'S POV

SIX MONTHS LATER

For all this years ,my life was perfect..I had nothing to worry about and I could do whatever I wanted ,whenever I wanted and however I wanted.. There were only two things that I needed to concern myself about and that was to make sure my family was taken a good care of and making my name known all around the world ,which was already the case anyway..Everyone knew Danelle McKenzie..But what I didn't expect was a little girl showing up in my life and turning it fucking upsidedown..What I still didn't understand was how effortlessly Anushka managed to breakdown all the walls I have put up all this years..I had never let my guard down ,not even once but somehow ,some fucking how she managed to turn me into a love fool again..Some emotional fool that barely controlled herself when the said girl was around..God knows how I hated myself lately,how I hated not to be in control ,I didn't want to feel that way ,I hated the wa

  • FIRE & ICE   Chapter 37: It's best for the both of us

    ANUSHKA'S POV I didn't think when I pushed Danelle hard away from me which she stumbled back but was able to catch her balance quickly..How dare she think it was okay to do that to me ? Just because I didn't stop her from getting close to me ,didn't mean I gave her free pass to do anything she wanted..For God's sake ,I wasn't ready for that.."Don't you ever touch me again " I seethed through gritted teeth as I stared coldly at my boss..McKenzie had an apologetic expression on her face as she tried to step forward"I'm so sorry Anushka ,I didn't mean to do that ,I swear--" McKenzie started apologetically , I could really see panic in her eyes but I wasn't having it right now.Thankfully ,in that second the elevator finally opened and I didn't waste any more second as I literally bolted out of there.. I could hear Danelle calling my name behind me but I didn't stop..I really needed a minute ,with all those emotions I was feeling ;it felt like I was suf

  • FIRE & ICE   Chapter 38: Quarrelling & Orchids flowers

    ANUSHKA'S POV It has been exactly a week and half since I have talked with McKenzie..I didn't know if she was ignoring me on purpose or that we just didn't cross paths anymore..But it didn't make sense though ; every Monday we had a board meeting at the bank but she wasn't there ,the meeting was conducted by Mr Pratab instead..Again ,the marketing team -which I was now a representative of- always had a meeting every once a week with the President of the bank to analyse the bank statistics and any changes that might have took place during the week but the woman asked for the files instead saying she would check everything herself and give feedback..She didn't even come face to face with me to ask for the files ,she sent her new secretary instead..So I really didn't know what to make out of everything or how to even feel about everything but one thing was for sure though; I have missed McKenzie like crazy..Sometimes I was tempted to just budge in her o

  • FIRE & ICE   Chapter 39: Date at swift

    ANUSHKA'S POV It only took about twenty minutes before we finally arrived at the restaurant Sammy did the reservation at for our date..It was a very fancy hotel , the outside only made that vividly clear..I suddenly felt so small, like I didn't belong there which I didn't of course..That was how I always felt every time I stepped in a space reserved for the riches..I always felt out of place and the feeling was never pleasant at all..I seriously would have appreciated it if he had took me somewhere I felt comfortable..Somewhere I could be able to pay for my own food if I wanted to..Maybe a street vendor or some two-star street restaurant or anything of that sort, besides I'd rather support a small-time business than some rich person who already have more money that could feed the whole town ,if not the whole conurbation..Fairly so, the man didn't think I'd like to eat somewhere like that ,so I couldn't blame him..He had money after all ,so he obvio

  • FIRE & ICE   Chapter 40: Lacenated Feelings

    DANELLE'S POV I pulled in my new shiny black Dodge Charger I bought few days ago in front of Swift Restaurant..I still couldn't get over the fact that I spent over a million on that car..Not that I was regretting buying it or anything just that, fuck that car was insane..The second I saw it ,I wanted it..James almost fainted when he saw the purchase papers after I have told him to collect them at the car store..The look on his face was so hilarious that I laughed my ass off that day..It was strange how I was actually getting along pretty well with my new secretary..I couldn't say we were friends or anything close to that but we had a pretty good relationship..James had a very nice personality which I strangely vibed with..Potentially a future friend ? Yes ,if I decide to stop pushing people away of course.To which I was doing it for valid reasons.. Not because I was an asshole that most people thought I was..I stepped out off the warm air-coned c

  • FIRE & ICE   Chapter 41: Losing something

    ANUSHKA'S POVIt was around past nine at night when Sammy finally decided that it was time for us to head back..I couldn't be more glad because ,honestly I really wanted to be anywhere else but there with him..Though I desperately tried to act like I was enjoying our time together but the facade was slowly blowing up on me and truly at this point ,I couldn't care less if he had noticed my lack of interest or not..All I wanted was to get away from him for a bit..Everything was going just fine until I let Sammy kiss me and the fact that I actually kissed him back was eating me alive inside..I was very pissed but I didn't try to lash out on Sammy because it wasn't like he forced his lips on mine ,I actually let him..And to think that I was determining to give him a chance (which was probably the whole reason why I kissed him) while his lips on me didn't even move me was very disappointing..I thought that i would feel at least a little bit of sparks or s

  • FIRE & ICE   Chapter 42 :Losing something (continuation)

    ANUSHKA'S POV I was laying under the massive tree with the thickest stem I'd ever seen and packed leaves that bent to its sides forming something like a dome..I had curled myself like a foetus on the ground as I wailed in my agony..I had cried and screamed until I couldn't find my voice anymore and now the tears were just silently flowing off my eyes on their own..I couldn't stop them no matter how hard I tried..I was in so much pain ,the pain that nobody could ever heal ,the pain of losing someone that meant the world to you..Someone that completed your soul, someone that was figuratively a part of you and now that that part was taken away from you ;life felt useless..It had been so many days and nights since I've curled myself under the same tree ,not even moving a single muscle as I continued to drown myself in my own tears..It hurts so much that I wanted everything to end ,like literally end..I slowly opened my eyelids as I felt something gently

  • FIRE & ICE   Chapter 43: Heartfelt

    DANELLE'S POVI heard everyone of them talk but it was like I was stuck deep under the water ,so I really couldn't make out the words ,only the sound that someone was talking..My whole family talked to me and even James and Josh did..Though I couldn't make out what they were saying but I could distinguish which voice was whose..I waited desperately for that one particular soft voice that made my heart do flips each time I hear it..Each time I faintly heard the door open ,I wished it was her but turns out to be someone else instead ,and that caused the ache in my heart to worsen each time I got disappointed that it wasn't her that walked in..Didn't she care about me ? Why wasn't she coming to talk to me like everyone else did? The more questions I asked myself in my head ,the more I got stressed and the more my heart pace slowed.. I could feel myself slipping away but I tried to hold on because I knew she would come for me..I just knew she would..

  • FIRE & ICE   Chapter 44 : I love you

    DANELLE'S POV It has been exactly a week and half since I have woken up and a week and half of yet to be discharged from the hospital ,a week and half of dealing with the annoying and constant clinginess of Elizabeth ,which I only endured because the woman claimed to be carrying my unborn child..And the whole fucking week and half without seeing my source of happiness ,my sunshine ,the only woman that made my heart skip a beat..After that day when she was probably unknowingly confessing her love for me and Elizabeth had to budge in and ruin our moment and dropped us with news that Anushka obviously didn't want to hear ,she never came to the hospital again..I called and texted her everyday this past days but she never picked up and she wouldn't even reply to my texts..I was seriously going crazy..I just wanted to see her ,just a glimpse of her beautiful face and maybe talk to her for a bit..God I was missing her so freaking much..I can perfectly u

  • FIRE & ICE   Chapter 98 : Lovers's adventures

    DANELLE'S POV Anushka was leaning on my shoulder as she slept. She had refused to go to sleep in the bedroom of the jet saying something about not wanting to move away from me. I just chuckled at her at that time and allowed her to do whatever she wanted even though she was probably going to wake up with a sore neck. I tried adjusting her head time to time ,getting her as comfortable as she possible could in that sitting position. We had about three hours before we landed in Rome and since I literally had nothing to do ,I had took out my laptop and started doing some work. I really didn't want to do any work while we were on this trip but my wife made me promise her that I would not ignore work anymore. She said that we shouldn't just neglect everything else just because we were away but I honestly disagreed with that. This was me and her time, nothing else mattered to me while we were here. But to make her happy, I would do anything. Kissing the top of my babe's head once again,

  • FIRE & ICE   Chapter 97: Hypocrites & Bygones

    DANELLE'S POV Anushka was standing beside me as I knocked at the nicely polished mahogany door of the villa next door. It was the same house Dominique said they were living at. Waking up this morning, I had every intention to get all of this over with as soon as possible so that we could move on. Milan was not that enticing to me anymore, I wanted to leave. We could head to Rome earlier than we had planned, it was not a problem. First, I needed to sort out this thing with Alice, for good. After ringing the doorbell again, we waited a little longer before the door finally opened. In front of us stood a tall dark skinned guy with a nicely trimmed beard. His hair was cut short in a buzz cut and he had a 3D sleeve tattoo which was done to perfection. He was only wearing a pair of yellow swimming trunks and no shirt on. "Hello..?"The guy said as he looked between me and Anushka. He had an accent I couldn't quite place. "Hi" "Hey...um...I'm here to see Alice, is she around?"I asked h

  • FIRE & ICE   Chapter 96 : Stargazing

    DANELLE'S POV Smoke escaped my mouth in gentle waves, my head slightly tilted up to the ceiling as I rested the back of my neck against the brim of the bathtub. I have been soaked inside it for the last hour as I let my mind jungle through the maze of memories. My head was in turmoil. I have had about three cigars in that last sixty minutes as to try and ease up the tension that was brewing inside of me. It was a risky thing to do of course, consuming that large amount of tar but I just didn't feel like I cared at the moment. At least it was helping me in this particular instance, slowly but surely. Taking another long drag of the cigar, I closed my eyes, letting it in for a longer second before I finally exhaled. The bitter taste that left in my mouth resembled the bitterness I was currently feeling in my heart. Right then ,at that moment, I knew exactly what I needed. I knew what comforted me at times like this when my emotions skewed over but I was purposely staying away from her

  • FIRE & ICE   Chapter 95 : Deep wounds

    ANUSHKA'S POV "Harp!"Dominique said, the shocked expression she had on her face long gone and replaced by an amused stare. Huh? "Let's go back to the villa Anushka"McKenzie said, flipping her off as she grabbed my wrist and started walking us away "Oh come on Harpreet, are you still mad?" "Don't fucking call me that!"McKenzie growled as she stopped walking and turned back to Dominique. "Why? Isn't that your name?"There was some level of smugness in her tone as she spoke "I swear to god Dominique"Danelle said warningly as she glared death at the other woman"Say one more word and see what happens" There was so much hostility radiating off of McKenzie directed to this Dominique woman and I couldn't help it but wonder who was she and what was the story between her and Danelle. Because, clearly there was something going on and Danelle didn't seem to like her very much either. Despite the warning McKenzie just issued out to her, Dominique didn't seem to be fazed at all

  • FIRE & ICE   Chapter 94 : Serenade

    ANUSHKA'S POV Four weeks later... My life was good. Marriage felt amazing. Honeymoon was great. For the entire twenty six years of my life, this was the happiest I had ever been. If someone told me five years ago that I would be touring the world and enjoying the comfort of a twenty-million euros luxury villa, I would have laughed in their face. But it was happening and it still felt like a dream no matter how many times I pinched myself. It was simply so hard to believe. I was sitting on the sun lounger outside by the pool, enjoying the sweetness of grapes in my mouth and the morning rays of sunshine warming down on my skin when my phone started ringing besides me. I reached for it and saw that it was my younger brother calling. For this past weeks ,we have been calling each other constantly as Amaar insisted on being kept updated on every stop we made on this honeymoon tour McKenzie and I had going on. In four weeks we had already went to London, Paris, Monaco, Venice and

  • FIRE & ICE   Chapter 93: Deja Vu

    DANELLE'S POV For the time I have known Vijay, I had never seen him so emotional like he was as he held her little baby girl in his arms. Thirty minutes ago, he welcomed his first child and man, you could see all sorts of emotions going through him. His eyes held tears but the wide smile on his face showed a man who was over the moon. Same applied to his wife. Well her though ,she couldn't even hold back her tears. After a little while of them embracing their baby together, they handed the little one to her grandparents. From what I knew, the Khans were very big on the idea of having as many grandchildren as they could. They liked having large families. So the birth of a child in the family meant a great deal to them. That was why sometimes I could not necessary blame my mother for wanting a grandchild from me so badly. I was the first child and it was traditionally on me to keep the family name going. But I failed, not once but twice to fulfill her wish and now as I saw the longi

  • FIRE & ICE   Chapter 92 : A sense of longing

    ANUSHKA'S POV Two days had quickly passed by since I came back home from McKenzie's house. Three days. That was how long I had to stay at my father's house for the last time before I had to go back to my new home, permanently. And as much as I was happy to be married but I wished I had just a little more than that to stay. It saddened me to know that the next time I went to my father's house I would be just like a guest. A mere visitor. It sucked but there was nothing I could do about it. I chose to be somebody's wife after all. The whole two days was spent with my family; my father, both my brothers, my sister-in-law, my little nephew and niece ,uncle Dusan and aunt Pragya as we bonded and created new memories together. The first night I arrived, we ate dinner together at the terrace. Both my aunt and sister-in-law had cooked all my favourite dishes. The following day ,it was raining so we just sat inside the house as we reminisced about a lot of things. My mother for instance a

  • FIRE & ICE   Chapter 91 : Final rituals

    ANUSHKA'S POV I was too focused on the coconut chutney that I was making that I didn't realize that I was no longer alone in the kitchen until I suddenly felt all too familiar arms wrapping around my body from behind. "Good morning Mrs McKenzie"Danelle said, burying her face in my neck as she practically breathed me in "Hey, you are finally awake?"I giggled ,leaning back into her more. Enjoying the warmth and the feel of her strong body pressed flatly against my own. Danelle only hummed, pressing herself even more into me and holding me in a tight embrace. "Why did you leave the bed?"She murmured against my neck, her lips gracing my skin delicately I closed my eyes, enjoying the touch of her soft lips"To make breakfast" "We have people who cook here baby"McKenzie said, pushing her face off my neck to look down at me"You didn't have to do all of this you know" I nodded, smiling at her"I know but I wanted to and besides, it's one of the custom that I still needed to do as

  • FIRE & ICE   Chapter 90: Awkwardness, Temptations & Fantasies

    DANELLE'S POV Minutes past by as I stood outside my bedroom door, my fingers fidgeting with the door knob. For some reason ,I was so nervous to enter my room. I knew Anushka was in there, waiting for me but I was hesitant to go inside and face her. My heart was pounding so hard in my chest and my palms sweaty despite the fact that it was actually night time. I couldn't understand why the hell I was nervous for? I knew Anushka for God's sake. She was my girlfriend and we had been together for almost a year. I saw and spent time with her almost every day so I didn't know why the heck was I being so weird? This was so ridiculous. Did people get nervous after actually getting married? Well...I guess I wouldn't know that because in all honestly , I just never cared before now. Yes, I was a bit nervous earlier before the ceremony but not like I was at the moment. To me, it felt like everything was going to be different now that Anushka was my wife. Her being my girlfriend was one th
