So-called future husband

Ashley's POV“I have fixed your marriage. Go meet him tonight at our restaurant at 6.p.m.” My hands instinctively stopped slicing the steak in between as I heard my father declaring my lifetime prison with a nonchalant expression. The lavish dining room, with its intricate gold design and marble floor, faded in the background, as I looked at the man sitting across the table. His gray hair seemed to blend with his dark hair, his face spotless of any emotion as he took a bite of his steak in the most aristocratic manner. I place down my cutlery, with a polite smile lingering on my lips. If I learn one thing from those expensive aristocratic mannerisms in class it's the fake polite smile. “I don't wish to. I would be grateful if you turned him down yourself, Father.” I calmly stated, returning to slicing my meal and taking a bite even though it just stood like a stale piece of carrot. I did my best to hide my inner turmoil, a mask was better than letting the man sitting across from me

First Meeting

Ashley I checked my watch, it was half past six in the evening. The streets were filled with people who had just left their workplace. The hustle and bustle made the city far more interesting. The white neon sign of the restaurant illuminated the place. With a deep breath, I entered. I was intentionally late for the meeting. I know the etiquette of the business world, being on time was late, and being late was questionable and a sign of disrespect. I was hoping he got the signal and already left. As I entered the restaurant lounge, the receptionist bowed and greeted me with a polite smile. The restaurant only took reservations with each dining table being a private and confidential room. There was no walk-in dining with thirty tables. It was popular among the general public to the point that booking needed to be six months in advance. My father might be cruel but no one can deny his excellency in business. “I have a reservation with Mr. Heinsberg,” I informed her, and she nodded,

Deadly charming like a viper

Ashley“What if I tell you I will make sure you become the next chairman of Cooper Groups!” Those words were enough to make me halt on my pace. He knew exactly what I desired more than anything in my life.“I am confident in my skill to get what I want, Mr. Heinsberg. Thank you for the offer.” There is nothing stupid than feeding milk to a snake and hoping it would not bite you. Zachary was nothing different from a viper. Charming, venomous, and dangerous. Zachary had the charm to attract its prey, injecting his venomous fang in his victim's body and killing it. Unlike snakes, who kill to feed and fend. Zachary does get his way. There is no such thing the great Zachary can't have. If he wants he wants there is no…there is no if. Someone should have hit teenage me for falling in love with him out of all the people on earth. What did I fall for even? He has nothing friendly to his character. Was I dumb? As I turned once again to leave, a hand grabbed and before I could even react, a

Let's get married

ZacharyGrowing up I have accepted the fact that people like me have to sacrifice everything to please others but there was one thing I could never sacrifice. That someone being none other than the woman I love most. She was my first and last. Ashley Cooper. Some might call it love and some people call it obsession. I don't care as long as she is mine. After ten torturous years of waiting to meet again. I am finally meeting her again. As I waited for her in the room, the tingling sweet smell of strawberries filled my lungs. The familiar smell swept in, as the door opened.I took a deep breath before turning back. There she was, standing in shock and bewildered. I was expecting that much. In a black dress, reaching her knee. Her shoulder blades showing and black stockings. She looked devastatingly gorgeous. Her ginger curls, reaching up to her waist, and red lipstick that she wore matching themes. My eyes went to a scar on her cheeks. It was subtle and mostly covered by her makeup, m

Mistake...?

AshleyAs I walked out of the restaurant fresh air filling my lungs and revitalising me, my phone rang up. A sour taste lingered in my mouth as I saw my father's ID flashing on the screen. Zachary's words flashed through my mind. None of his words were lies. It was the truth. I am not heir to my father and never will be. I swallowed the feeling as I picked up the call. “If you are wondering how the date went? Then no. I am not marrying him.” I spoke even before he could speak. “I knew it. You are as useless as your mother. You can't even do one thing I ask of you? You want to be CEO, right? Go be a CEO, you are not allowed to work in my company or come back home. I would rather not have a daughter than have you. Don't return home until you marry him.” Even before I could answer he cut the call. Just refusing to marry, and I am disowned and fired from my job. The job I worked so hard on didn't take him even a second to dispose of me. Zachary was right, if I want to prove to him I c

Marriage of convenience

Ashley “Where are we?” I quipped, averting my head in his direction. “Marriage registration office. It closes soon, let's hurry.” Zachary took off the seatbelt, trying to get out of the car in a hurry. I remember agreeing to marriage but not to elope. The whole point of marriage was to prove to my father I could be married and be an heir. If I have to elope there is no point. I wanted people to come to the wedding. I wanted them to know me, and see me as someone with potential. The annual board meeting was in a few months, and making connections with those board members was the only way I could get a promotion. Not this way. “I think you got the wrong idea, Mr. Heinsberg. I don't want a real marriage. I want to be chairman of Cooper groups. It will be a marriage of convenience. We will act as a couple in public, nothing more than strangers in private. It will be a public wedding but no registration. Once I became heir, we faked divorce. I will give you half of my assets like a nor

Marital home

AshleyI don't know what's more shocking is the fact that my husband, the man who rejected me ten years ago, has his hand on my thighs or the red booklet on the dashboard. It was just a blink! Just a blink! Is that how easy it is to get married? No wonder the cause of most pain starts from marriage. They should be banned for future human sake. “Where are we going?” I decided to push aside all my thoughts and tried to question. Keep a calm and collected front. I reminded myself. Failing to remove his hand from my thighs was already getting under my skin. “Our marital home, Of course,” Zachary replied, not sparing a glance at me. He was more focused on his drive. I wanted to refuse but the harsh words of my father rang in my mind. It was not like I had anything important there. I might've stayed in Cooper mansion but except for a few clothes, there was nothing sentimental in there. My family never even noticed I had rented a studio apartment near the office for an easy commute. They

The boogeyman

ZacharyIf there was damnation mine would be Leah’s indifference. I would have taken hate, I could have taken poison and drunk it like coffee but indifference. I would rather die. Except for the breaking down at the restaurant, there was none. A calm mask, her dark brown eyes hollow. No emotions.If that was not enough, she was acting like our marriage was fake. How can I accept her calling this marriage fake when I did everything for this marriage? A ten-year of hell just for her to call this marriage fake. Then again, she was not at fault. I glanced at the closed white door. After my outburst, she quietly shoved me away. “Where is my room? If there is not, please call a taxi and I will return to my house.” In fear, I showed her the master bedroom. Now here I am sitting in my office across from our bedroom where my wife is spending our wedding night. Alone. Instead of my arms. ***“I heard you are dating my daughter.” James sat at his mahogany table, with pictures of me and Leah

Little bluebird

Ashley I glanced outside the window, it was already morning. The sun had risen. The soft light seeped through the curtains. I sighed, getting up from the bed. The dream remains, except for locking it away there is nothing to do. I went to the bathroom to freshen up, if Bloody Mary was not real they should have seen me they would have the horror. The ruined mascara and eye makeup with dry tears over my cheeks. The red lipstick was half smeared on my lips and half on my cheeks as if I were some kind of clown. The hair was more like a whacked broom. Jesus! I am getting scared of myself. I wash myself, clean my makeup and everything, and after a quick shower. I was finally back to my human form. I put on my clothes before going out of the room. As I opened the door, my gaze met the icy pale blue eyes that made my gut wrench by their beauty. How can a man be devastatingly gorgeous like this? I just want to meet the one who created this man. He was already dressed in his black suit, ha

Epitome of chaos

Zachary ***18 years ago.“Are you the new guy?” A soft voice as if she owns the place. A young girl with ginger hair flowing down her shoulder walked into the boy's locker room. “Everyone out except the new guy.” Her voice was firm, her gaze never leaving me. Soon the room was empty. Leaving just the two of us.“You have pretty eyes.” She complimented walking closer to me. “Have a girlfriend?” Her words were mellow but something addictive was about it. The sweet smell of strawberries filled my lungs. The way her green eyes with hints of brown specks remained at my curiosity got the better of me. “I do.” I lied just to see a reaction in those eyes and as I wanted her face twitched into a sour look. “Break up then. I don't like sharing.” Her words were sharp, if looks could kill she would be a serial killer. “No.” I know I was playing with fire but this was fun. She was the first person who wanted me. Once she learns that I am just an orphan, someone even unwanted by my own parents
