View MoreChapter 20Ana's POVSilence stretched between us after Marcus’s confession. His words hung in the air, cold and unwavering."I never want to have one."I gripped the wine glass tighter, my heartbeat pounding in my ears. My free hand instinctively brushed over my stomach—over the tiny life growing inside me. He had no idea.I swallowed hard, forcing a small, casual laugh. "Marcus, just because your father was a terrible parent doesn’t mean you will be."His jaw clenched. "You don’t understand, Ana.""Then make me understand."He exhaled sharply, rubbing his temple as if debating whether to say more. "I don’t just hate children. I fear what I’d become if I had one. My father—he was a tyrant. He controlled everything—my mother, my childhood, my future. He made me believe love was a weakness. That family was just a means to an end."I watched him closely. This wasn’t the arrogant, untouchable Marcus Blinge I knew. This was someone burdened by his past, by the demons he tried to outrun.H
Chapter 19Ana's POV The following week came by pretty quick, with Marcus being less annoying and demanding I had no problem doing my job. I was surprised that this part of him existed. He smiled more often, we went to work together and got back together, we ate breakfast and dinner together. It was gradually becoming a routine that I was looking forward to everyday. Sometimes I get lost in the thought of that day. The memory of his hand, his lips, the way he whispered that I was his. It all clung to me like a second skin that I couldn't wash away. I glanced at myself in the mirror for the last time smoothing the creases on my gown. I was wearing a purple coperate flare gown, and I must say it looked beautiful on me. I arranged my hair again before I picked up my bag and walked out of my room to the kitchen." Marcus, I'm done." I called out as I entered the kitchen. I didn't get a response." Marcus?" I called out again, still no response. I noticed a note on the covered plate of
Chapter 18Ana's POV I woke up to the sound of steady breathing beside me. For a moment, I forgot where I was— until I felt the firm weight of a hand draped around my waist. My eyes snapped open and I turned to see Marcus still sleeping peacefully. I picked up my phone to check the time and it was four AM. I think I have to leave before he wakes up. I carefully peeled his arm off me and sat up, he stirred but didn't wake up. He looked so relaxed and incapable of being rude or strict. I exhaled deeply and ran my fingers through my hair before standing up, I had to get out of here before things get complicated. I tiptoed around the room and picked up my bag and shoe. Just as I reached the door, I heard his groggy voice." Ana." I turned back to see him sitting on the bed, rubbing his eyes. " Good morning, Sir." I said with a tight lipped smile. " Morning, where are you going? It's still dark outside." He said picking up his phone to check the time. " Home?" I said stating the ob
Chapter 17Ana's POV I stared at my reflection in the bathroom mirror, the intense redness of my eyes indicated that I had been crying. I pulled my hair into a messy bun allowing few strands of hair out to frame my face. I needed to pull myself together, today was not the day to fall apart. I splashed cold water on my face hoping it would wash away the exhaustion that cling to me like a second skin. It was already seven AM, I let out a tired sigh grabbing my bag and headed out of the apartment. I looked around the buzzing city but I felt disconnected from it. My mind kept replaying the picture of Marcus and Daisy throughout the entire ride to the office. I don't know why I got my hopes up that we could have a chemistry. I was just his property, another thing he acquired via a contract. What hurts the most is that he reminds me of it at every moment he gets. When I arrived at the office, immediately I noticed something was off. Marcus packing space in the garage was vacant. That's w
Chapter 16Marcus POV I stared at the picture of I and Daisy that had spread all over the internet like wild fire. She had locked lips with me that night against my wish. She had invited me for a meeting that night, I went with the intention of cutting her off completely and warning her to stay away from Ana. But she obviously had tricks up her sleeves. I walked into the penthouse hoping that Ana had not seen it yet, at least until I explained it. The elevator opened at the floor of the penthouse and she was standing right there with a small bag. " Where are you going?" " Far away from your drama obviously." She said as she tried to walk past me. " You are not going anywhere until we talk this out." " You want to talk Marcus? No! We can't talk." She yelled angrily. She's going to make me do this the hard way." You are not allowed to leave to anywhere without my permission." I said sternly as I arranged my suit." Says who?" She shot back. " Says the contract, so if you still
Chapter 15Ana's POV I had not seen Marcus since the day at the cafe. He didn't show up at the office and he didn't even drop by the penthouse like he used to do. I was left to manage the office alone, Jolene was a great company though. We ate lunch together so I wasn't really bored but I could feel his absence at the office. I tried to focus on work but I couldn't shake off the feeling of sadness that settled in my chest. I decided to take a break from the work cycle and visit my mum at the hospital. I hadn't seen her in a while. I walked down the hallway that my mum's ward was on. When I got to her ward she wasn't there. The place was cleared like no one was ever there. My heart started beating fast and it felt like the world was spinning. I rushed out of the room panicking. I really hope she is fine. I saw a nurse walking down the hallway and decided to ask her." Excuse me." I said obstructing her way. " I'm looking for my mum, room 516. She's not there." " I don't know where
Chapter 14Ana's POV I stared outside the window watching the passing building as I got lost in my thoughts. He was definitely avoiding me this morning. I felt a knot in my stomach as Blinge Empire building came in view. " Thank you Burnley." I said as he pulled over in front of the company. I stepped out and walked through the reception greeting everyone I came across with a smile. I glanced at the clock at the office it was already past eight AM. Hurriedly I picked up a cup of coffee at the cafe across the street before heading to his office with a file containing his schedule for today. I stood at his office door, took a few breath to calm myself down before I pushed the door open. " Good...." I paused when I noticed his seat was empty. My eyes roamed around the office but it was empty. It was unlike him to be late to work. I had hoped to be able to talk to him before work hours start proper. As I set down his schedule the door burst open. A furious Marcus marched into the ro
Chapter 13Marcus POVMy eyes sprung open, I didn't want to close it so that I don't return to the nightmare that hunted me every night. My heart was racing and the sheets were drenched in sweat. I heard soft snores coming from beside me, so I turned to see the source of the snores. It was Ana.Everything came rushing back, we back home and I had made her drink water to sober up. She even vomited on her dress so I had to get a female cleaner downstairs to help her change into a comfy cloth. She held onto my shirt so tight and made me to stay with her till I eventually slept off. I stared at her, taking in her peaceful features. I had wrapped her long black hair into a bun so that it doesn't get into her vomit. I stared at her slightly parted full lips that were really tempting. I couldn't help but admire. She looked really beautiful up close. I tucked a few strands of hair that slipped out of the bun behind her ear.She turned a bit as my hand made contact with her ear then her eyes
Chapter 12Ana's POVI laid down in bed staring at the ceiling. I used a white napkin to clear the line of tears that made its way down my cheeks. I was still wondering what came over him that made him to take such rash decision. I felt my phone vibrate, it was probably Marcus calling me to remind me how I'm a property given to him by contract. I didn't want any of this wedding at all. I haven't told my mum yet, she's going to be so surprised and she would probably not like this. My phone vibrated again, I rolled my eyes at the caller. Can't I just have a little time to myself. I swiped the answer button and kept it on my ear without even a glance. " Marcus what do you want?" I asked in a frustrated tone." Our boss calls you even on the weekends?" A feminine voice came through the phone. Immediately, I took it from my ear to see who it was. It was Jolene. " Jolene! I'm so sorry, I had no idea that it was you." I rushed out, sitting up." It's fine." She said with her contagious lau
Chapter 5 Ana's pov The ride to his mansion felt like a thousand years and yet when we finally arrived, it was as though I had only been squished between his bodyguards for a second. I saw him descending from the other car in front, he gave me a brief glance before two maids approached him. He pointed to me and made some gestures with his hands, the maids left him and rushed over to my side. “Mr Blinge said we should prepare you,” one of the maids said, and I was given no other explanation as they pulled me into the mansion taking me to the west wing, the place was massive and every inch of it reeked of wealth and opulence. If I were to disappear in a place like this… Would my mother even find out? What sort of sick twisted things was he planning for me? I thought the maids were just taking me away to lock me up, but instead they helped me wash up with luxurious soaps, shampoos, and made me wear a perfume whose flower scent almost took me from the floor. ...
