Alena Fleur has her dream job. Smart, confident, beautiful—she was everything. She was the COO of the Storm Dynamics. But only one particular problem, or more like a person, made her life hell, and that person was her rude boss, Elian Storm. Elian Storm, the CEO of the Storm Dynamics, kept a dark aura around him all the time; as if someone stabbed his heart and he could never move on. Everyone feared him, except his COO, who ended up earning a special spot in his heart despite their regular bickering. However, one unfortunate night revealed Elian’s side business to Alena. How would Alena handle herself after learning the boss she used to argue with was actually a ruthless mafia leader in the underworld?

I never thought you would stoop this low for love. Such a disappointment," came the sneering response of the leader of XS gang, David Garner."I don't have the time for chit-chat, David. Do we have a deal or not?""Alright, you got it. Come to the location I will send you. I know I don't have to say this to you but come alone and unarmed," he warned.I hung up the call without bothering to reply."Elian, I don't have a goo

I asked, feeling slightly jittery."For the umpteenth time, Elian, I don't care," Lance replied flatly."Come on, help your brother out here," I whined."How should I know, man? Do you think I have experience with meeting my girlfriend's parents?" Lance retorted."Right, you don't have a girlfriend," I snorted."Who needs a trouble like that?" he said with a bored look."It's not a trouble—""Besides, can you just be a little disappointed that the XS members e
Prequel- Chapter 13: Hidden TruthAlena FleurAs time passed by quickly, the minutes blended into hours, the days slipped through my fingers, and before I realized it, weeks turned into months, and months transformed into years.Finally, it was here.My graduation.It felt as though it was just a few days ago when Elian graduated, but before I knew it, it was already my time to graduate.These past two and a half years we spent with each other was an enchanting experience that filled my heart with lasting memories of joy and love. I never wanted to forget these wonderful times.I was smiling through my university album when my phone rang.
Prequel- Chapter 12: Chance RuinedElian Storm"Fucking hell, just get off already," I muttered under my breath, trying to get rid of the stubborn blood stain on my phone case.It was my favorite one, and yet, in a rush, I made the mistake of picking up Alena's phone while my hands were all bloody. I couldn't ignore it, either, knowing all too well how Alena would scold me."Looks like I will just have to order a new exact one—"Just then, I heard the front door open."Shit. I really shouldn't have given my key to her." But what else could I do? It would be suspicious if I didn't, given that we had been dating for one and a half years now.I threw my
Prequel- Chapter 11: For HimAlena FleurI stayed quiet as Elian vented out his anger.I stayed quiet as he confessed he loved me.I stayed quiet as he walked out on me, shutting the door in my face.I wanted to stop him, but my muscles wouldn't move. I became numb. He had always made me speechless, but never in this way. My chest had never hurt like this before.My legs gave up, and I plopped down on the edge of his bed, tears stinging my eyes."What should I do? Wha–what should I do?" I asked myself, my voice choking up. "What if... what if he never comes back?"I buried my face in my hands, full on sobb
Prequel- Chapter 10: Unleashing The AngerElian StormI was deep in my slumber when I heard shuffling around me. I peeked an eye open to find Alena running around my room in a hurry while getting dressed."Good morning, babe," I mumbled groggily, stretching my arms and rising up from the bed.Alena stopped in the middle of putting on her cardigan and came to give me a hurried kiss. "Good morning, baby. Did you sleep well?""I always sleep well when you are with me," I replied and tried to catch her for another kiss, but she was already on her way to the dressing table to grab her hairbrush."Of course, I'm the most huggable person ever," she praised herself.I smiled looki
Prequel- Chapter 9: First DateAlena Fleur"You are a man of your words, I see," I teased when I opened the door and found Elian sporting a red denim jacket."I had to go buy this," he grumbled, rolling his eyes.I laughed and kissed his cheek. "Baby, it was a joke, though."Yesterday, after my exams were over after one week, we were riding on his motorbike when I told him that he had to wear something red for me since we missed our chance to celebrate Valentine's Day. It was solely for the purpose of teasing him. As expected, he profusely denied it, but in the end, he gave in to my persistence and said that he would wear a red denim jacket or shirt.The more time I spent with him, the more
Prequel- Chapter 8: Midterm CrisisElian StormIt was midnight.Standing on the deck of a yacht, I was watching over the unloading of cargo full of illegal products on the dock. The movements were swift and quiet, though. The only sounds which could be heard was the waves crashing against the dock and the creaking of the wood underneath the footsteps. Although there was a touch of nervousness in the air. None of the men dared to misplace a single item under my watch.In short, I was getting bored. I wanted to see Alena.That reminds me..."Did Braxton agree to shift their business somewhere else?" I asked my consigliere in a low voice. Braxton was the head of the gang that ruled the crime activities
Prequel- Chapter 7: Heart StringsAlena FleurThe moving day finally came. It was the first day of February—the first day I would live alone.The days leading up to here had been torture because I hated packing. But I comforted myself with the dreams of the end result.My roommates had kindly offered me help, but I humbly denied it. I didn't have too many things to bring anyway. I just accepted Tiara and Sara's help. They were the ones I hung around the most during classes—also the ones who teased me the most about Elian."Al, why didn't Elian come?" Sara whined."So that you could tease him? No way in hell," I told her, opening a carton of my books and keeping the books in their place on t
Chapter 1: Miserable LifeAlena FleurMy life was miserable. I thought my life would be perfect once I got promoted and got my dream job. But boy, was I wrong. Now I know why the previous COO left his job. The paycheck was nice, but not the CEO.The entire floor had a waiting lounge, a reception where an assistant was present, and a familiar cabin of my boss, Elian Storm.“Sir can meet you now, Ms. Fleur,” said Elian’s assistant, Rowan Dansen after I waited for ten minutes.I gave him a curt nod and walked straight to Elian’s cabin, letting my stilettos stomp after me. The sensor glass door opened automatically.Sucking in a deep breath to calm my temper, I went inside.Elian was leaning back against his chair, while his eyes were glued to the screen of his laptop.“Good morning, Mr. Storm,” I greeted in a professional tone. Elian instantly looked up at me. “Good morning, Ms. Fleur.” He got up from his chair to walk towards his coffee machine while I remained standing at one spot. “
