Damien Yves Etienne’s POV

Charlotte's hair was being blown by a gentle breeze. She was beaming under the large oak tree that provided shade from the harsh sunlight. I could easily have misidentified her as an angel sent from above at that point. My heart fluttered at that moment, as cringe-worthy as it may sound.

"I've seen this scenario before," I mumbled, "but I can't remember where I saw it." I shook my head to avoid drowning in confusion. As I approached her, I smiled and removed the confusion from my eyes. "There you are," Charlotte exclaimed, stunned for a split second before greeting me with a warm smile. "You're here," she said as she fixed her hair, closing her eyes.

Her lips were slightly parted, revealing her adorable dimples. I laughed lightly as the butterflies in my stomach did somersaults I couldn't quite figure out. I felt like I'd just won my first battle. "I knew I'd find you here," she chuckles as she hears my remarks. Surprisingly, this place and this exact scenari

It feels very strange to witness her shadow vanish. But it's okay. After all, I have someone else to embrace me.That's what I initially believed, up until the point where the thought of having my possession stolen caused me to lose all sense of reality. Even though I had never cared about her before, the idea of having something taken away from me made me angry. Maybe I'm feeling this way because of my ego."This b*tch doesn't intend on replying to me huh," I said, looking at the soft surface of my phone. I was at the filming location at that time, a massive university that appears to be well-known due to the number of dramas that have been filmed there. My manager jumped up and down and exclaimed, "Jake! The director here! Also, it seems like there's a surprise that awaits you outside," as she l

    Charlotte Hayes’ POVDamien leaned in closer for a kiss on the lips. "Hmph," I said, pushing him away, astounded because he appears to be getting used to kissing me. His eyes were like those of a whining puppy. "Are you all right?" He strokes my cheek. I responded by holding his hands and nodding. Damien turned around to face Jake with a rage on his face. Jake, on the other hand, maintains his arrogant demeanor.Damien held my hand as he said, "Hurt her again, and I'll directly transport you to the afterlife." Jake exclaimed, leaving Damien and I alone in the tent. "Let's go to the hospital," he said softly. I shook my head, "there's no need. I can handle it. More importantly, there's the director thing. You did plan that, didn't you?" Damien kissed my cheek and asked, "Does it make a difference?" I moaned, wrapping my arms around his neck. He never took his gaze away from mine."Did you have a good time?" I inquired. "Mmm... yeah. There's no reason for us to stay here any longer." I

    Charlotte Hayes' POVI chuckled at his remarks. "That's it?" I asked, with a grin. "If you want to tempt me, you've got to have more than that." Damien couldn't stop smirking. "It seems like I'm the one getting tempted instead," Damien said with a laugh. He went back to his very seat, crossing his legs, and placing his arms on the soft surface of the table, which was covered in red fabric."Giving up, already?" I asked. Damien started to laugh. "Giving up doesn't seem to appear in my vocabulary, princess. I'll tempt you later, so for now, I want you to eat. We can't have you go hungry," he said, causing my heart to feel a slight tingle."Oh really, huh?" I chuckled, as a response to his words. "But I'm afraid, I have to go to the bathroom first. Just some women stuffs," I stood up, as I grabbed my purse. Damien nodded in silence with a smile, as his eyes were on me till I left the room. I opened the door to the women's bathroom, and noticed that someone was there too. It was a woman w

    Damien Yves EtienneI was always the type to not be afraid of anything; because I was teached that way all of my life. Charlotte and I were eating in a restaurant that I own, when all of the sudden.. “Where is she?” I got goosebumps all over my body when I noticed that she hadn't come back from the bathroom for a while. I immediately took my move. I tried calling her multiple times before going into the women’s bathroom, but no one… was there. “Sh*t!” I yelled with rage, as I ran towards the elevator to go to the CCTV control and monitoring room.“Mr. Etienne?!” Everyone was in shock of my sudden appearance, I was running, in a rush as I yelled, “Check the camera in the bathroom’s hallway!” My heart was beating, and my mind was going blank. I was slowly going insane as I watched the footage and saw Charlotte getting kidnapped. “That woman…” I mumbled. All of the sudden, Luca ran to the monitoring room. Considering the sweat in his face, it seems like he went here in a rush. “S-Sir… I

I tightly embraced him; I could feel the warmth of his body, and his raging heart that couldn't stop beating fast. It was over—but I couldn't stop crying. I could feel a sense of relief now that he's here. This man, whom I barely know, is the man whom I trust my life to. I knew getting involved with this man was a dangerous gamble. But what can I do? Being with him… was my only source of comfort."Damien I…" I whispered, as I clutched my hands unto his garments. He was still holding me tightly, when he asked, "Yes?" The atmosphere was silent, the room was bloody, and everyone was avoiding to exchange gaze with us. "T-Thank you," I muttered, with a smile. Damien widened his eyes, expressing sudden surprisement, and smiled. "You're welcome," he closed his eyes.After a while, we went to his house.

    Damien Yves Étienne's POVCharlotte Hayes—she was the very first woman that caught my attention. I didn't know what she had that others didn't. But for some reason, my eyes were on hers. It wasn't her smile, her face, her personality, but something else that made me enthralled. Perhaps it is this confusion that makes me want to keep her by my side. She seems to hold something, a place in my heart that I have seen to be forgotten. Thats what I'm trying to figure out.That was the mere reason all along for keeping her by my side but… I looked at her expression, an expression that holds a tint of sadness and longing. For some reason, seeing you like this makes me want to stay with you for a lifetime, without any reason. "You know what happened earlier. Being with me is harmful for you. Yet despite that, you still want to know me better?" I asked, raising one of my eyebrows.Charlotte nodded, as she replied, "Yes. It doesn't matter to me now, what matters is that I'm with you."

Charlotte shook, as if electricity went through her veins. Slowly, I savored her neck and remembered the delicious taste in my mouth. "Hmm," I groaned, as I pressed my thing on hers. "Ngh.." she moved her face to the left, to avoid eye contact.After tasting her savory neck, I went to kiss her garments that cover her melons—those big, juicy melons of hers. With a slow manner, I took off her clothes, showing off the sight of her bare, soft, and white skin. "Hah…" I sighed, as I looked at her. The sight was tempting and alluring. I obviously look like a madman right now. "Princess.. my princess," I said, sniffing her neck, going down to her breasts. "Mhm," I took off her bra—no,I took everything off till she was bare naked.

    Charlotte Hayes’ POV A talk show—I have attended lots of talk shows before, and I can’t deny that those small funny talks actually gave me a sense of Euphoria. But a talk show hosted by a former model? It piqued my interest just by thinking about it. It was around two in the afternoon when I finished taking a refreshing shower with Damien. Not only did he make me wear a matching outfit with his, he also made sure I wore the same alluring perfume as his. “I wonder what Jake is up to now… he’s oddly being quiet,” I mumbled into thin air. “Are you really thinking of another man when you’re literally with me?” Damien asks out of blue, as he was fixing his neck tie.I sighed, and went closer to him, as my heels made a clack sound. “Seriously…” I grabbed his neck tie and fixed it on my own. “I just wanted to know how he’s doing.” Damien sulked, as he gave me a peck on my cheek whilst I was fixing his tie. “Oh dear…” I chuckled with a smile. “Anyways… my manager messaged me in regards to th

And I'm fine with it. Damien was immediately sent to the emergency room. I was standing there outside the room, desperately waiting for an update. "Hic.. I think he lost a lot of blood," I said, crying. Luca and Aviana were on my side, trying to calm me down but it was futile, as my emotions seemed to go through me like a light.

Aviana gradually wakes up from the loud noise Jake's making. The moment she gained realization about her surroundings, she immediately panicked. "Jake?! And… Charlotte?! Why… Why am I here?!"

Oh dear, I never expected that Damien Yves Étienne would be a mafia boss. I wonder what the media would say if I spread this word? That will be the perfect payback, as that is what you guys did too."

    Charlotte Hayes' POVThe moment Damien accepted the call from the telephone, his expression turned stern—the smile on his face faded. "Is there something wrong?" I asked, reaching out to his other hand with a worried reaction. Damien placed the telephone back where it was, and pulled me closer towards him, looking at me, now wearing a smile. "What's wrong?" I asked. "It's Jake Hayes. The pest finally sent a threat." I was dumbfounded the moment I heard his words. "Let's see how far he's willing to go, shall we?" He scoffs. The next day, Damien and his father were planning some things. As ordered, I had to stay inside my room until further notice for protection. "I wonder what's going to happen now," I was looking outside the window of my room, admiring the view. Then, all of the sudden, a knock was heard outside my room. "Come in," I ordered. It was a maid, holding a silver platter with snacks and a teapot on it. "Greetings milady," she bowed slightly, "Sir Damien wanted me to hand

It makes me wanna wonder how she’s been. But one thing is for sure. "She's not fine. But don't worry. She will be okay. " I will make sure she’ll be okay; I vow on it. "So, what's the plan sir?" I asked, looking at him with a stern face. The boss had a smug look on his face, as he answered with a confident look, "The usual treat." He chuckles, "But since I'm kind, let's give them a bit of candy after the main treat." I could never understand what he meant by that, but like the usual, he would always win regardless.After the talk with the boss, I started walking slowly outside his office. Later on, I arrived at the luxurious chambers of Damien’s father, wherein there's a ton of mafia servants surrounding the place, to tell him about the updates of the current situation.

"You can take a bath now," I said, as I was about to pass through him with a poker face, when he suddenly grabbed my arm, pulling me closer to him. "Can't I have a kiss before I go take a bath?" I blushed at his words, as I pushed him aside, trying to maintain that poker face. "It's not like you're going to war," I pouted."Who says that I can only receive a kiss if I'm going to war?" He grinned. Obviously, there's no reason for me not to kiss him. But maybe today's one of those mood swings of mine, as I am currently acting hard to get. "I'll give you a kiss after you're done taking a bath," I said, sighing. Damien's eyes brightened as he nodded. I went back to the bedroom to change clothes, while Damien was taking a bath.

Charlotte's eyes widened upon hearing my remarks. "What? The paparazzi haven't found him yet? Where has he been hiding?" She asks, as she slowly stops embracing me, her gaze fixed on me. "No. Before I came here, I had a few of my men find him, but there has been no updates since then," I sighed, crossing my arms, showing an annoyed reaction. "Does he know nothing, except to hide?" I added, rolling my eyes.Charlotte sighs as she holds my hand firmly, reassuring me with that loving smile of hers. "Don't worry. He can't stay hidden for long," she says.

So I quickly rushed out of my house, into the busy streets. I scanned the faces of the people around me, hoping to catch a glimpse of her.The sights, smells, sounds, and sensations of the city were overwhelming as I searched for her. The warm air smelled of motor oil and exhaust fumes, and the sounds of the city's hustle and bustle filled my ears. Every face I passed seemed to be a blur as I searched frantically for her. The more I scoured the crowd, the more I became frustrated by my inability to find her.

Just as I reached for the doorknob, my mother had already opened the door, revealing Damien standing on the front porch, a playful grin on his face.I gasped as I tried to stop myself, but before I knew it, I had fallen into his arms. He caught me effortlessly, his broad shoulders offering a soft landing. I felt my skin flush, my chest heave with every breath as I struggled to free myself from his grip.
