No one moved a muscle after both Josh and Stella were thrown out of the company. This is how Nikolai deals with people who try to outsmart him. He is known for his ruthless reputation. He proved it once again.

"Get back to your work. We have to show to attend" Nikolai snapped.

Immediately everyone got back to their work.

Ivy and Luna looked at each other, still reeling in shock.

Ivy pinched herself hard to wake herself from this alternate world. But nothing changed. Nikolai was still standing right infront of her. She never thought that he would help her. This is really a shock to her.

"Are you planning to stand there all day?" Nikolai asked Ivy.

Her already wide eyes became comical. She shook her head. At once both Luna and Ivy jumped and moved at once. They both collided with eachother in their haste to get back to their works. Both of them stumbled. But soon righted themselves.

After a couple of minutes, Ivy realised that they don't have a show's topper as Stella was fired. She

    "New designer, Ivy Johnson" When Nikolai introduced Ivy as the designer, she was pleasantly surprised. She was not expecting him to acknowledge her work. Just like how Josh did, she thought Nikolai might downplay her part. But to her surprise, he proudly announced her as a designer who is capable of designing dresses to compete in such a prestigious competition.The sounds of applause that echoed all around her made Ivy extremely emotional. She never thought that she might get a chance to present her designs at such a platform like this. The admiration she was receiving now made her skin break into goosebumps. She looked at Nikolai with gratitude and some complicated feelings.'Who are you? You kidnapped me and held me captive against my will. You don't have to help me today. I already agreed to help you. Moreover you have Jason as a hostage to hold against me. Then why? All my life I lived under the fear of the knight family. I only ever had one dream. And that is to become a good d

    "Miss Johnson, do you know who I am" Richard asked Ivy with an even tone, but he couldn't hide a hint of displeasure upon her dismissal. But Ivy is too scared to care about offending him. She couldn't wipe away the memories of that night and the face of the man with a mask from that fateful night. 'Can it be a coincidence? How can this man resemble so much with that monster from that night. Am I over thinking? But not only Mr. knight, I lost so much that night' she thought as the images of that night started to play in her mind. Fear like she never thought she would experience again started to make her feel paralysed. The images of her mother leaving her last breath made her feel breathless. She found the restrooms and locked herself in one of the stalls, hiding from that man and trying to make sense of what she just saw. 'I am trying to forget everything from that night. Too much is riding on the truths from that night. My night mares started to become better. Dad is trying his b

    Nikolai looked at Ivy. She looked dishelved. Her once beautiful dress is torn, her hair is a mess. Her shapely legs are on display. He noticed that one of her calf is bleeding. There are several red marks over her legs and thighs. But still he liked her appearance. She is looking like an innocent rabbit, pure, and very attractive. Despite her half nakedness, what caught his attention is her tear strained cheeks. He can guess that she cried long before Stella attacked her. He approached her slowly. He removed his suit jacket and draped it over her body. Before her body could get used to the warmth of his jacket, he invaded her personal space. He squeezed her cheeks between his fingers. She flinched when he touched her. But he didn't let go of her cheek. "Why were you crying? You were happy before you met Richard. Are you acquainted with him before today?" he inquired calmly. His tone is neither gentle nor harsh. Ivy became pale when she heard his question. She gathered the name of

    Ivy felt the warmth under her fingertips where they are gently placed on Nikolai's chest. And she cannot ignore his hands that are carrying her. Her head is tucked under his chin and she could feel him everywhere at once. The breath she is taking is intoxicated with his woodsy scent, which is different from all the other expensive perfumes and deo's she smelled before. She is surrounded by him all over. His gait is steady and confident, even though he is carrying her. Something stirred in her stomach. His touch and this felt different from everything she has ever experienced before. Even with Jason, there is a comforting warmth mingled with familiarity. But with Nikolai, it's different. He managed to unlock his car door and gently tucked her inside. This is so unlike the man who kidnapped her a few days ago. He is being gentle. What she noticed is that, he is not looking anywhere near her exposed thighs. Stella tore her dress in such a way that most of her thighs are exposed to his e

    "Rhonda, where is Nik?" William inquired.Rhonda never liked Catherine to begin with. She knows what kind of woman Catherine is and she doesn't have a good opinion about William as well. She finds him creepy and utterly unsettling."Mr. Simpson, Mr. Knight is still at work" Rhonda replied.The moment she said those words, they heard Nik's car parking in the driveway. Immediately Catherine rushed to congratulate Nikolai for winning a hundred million dollar contract. William is grinning from ear to ear while following after his daughter. But they both froze when they saw Nikolai carrying a woman in his arms. Catherine became furious, but she hid her anger with a forced smile. On the other hand, William's gaze landed on the exposed part of Ivy's thighs. Ivy looked at the woman who glared at her for a split second before hiding her reaction and the man who was watching her exposed legs. She felt uncomfortable as if bugs are crawling over her skin. She moved one of her arms and tried to

    "Cathy" William rushed to help his daughter up from the floor. Catherine looked at Nikolai with Misty eyes as if to show him that he wronged her. But Nikolai didn't feel bad that he didn't catch her when she was falling. "Looks like your daughter still doesn't know how to walk properly" he commented coldly, mocking Catherine. The father daughter duo was not expecting this. They realised that it's not easy to fool Nikolai."Cathy, be careful next time" William reprimanded his daughter to appease Nikolai. Nikolai is not interested in their family drama."Don't waste my time William. What do you want?" he demanded impatiently.Initially William brought his daughter to try and seduce Nikolai. But now that their plan doesn't seem to be working, he came up with an alternative which would give Catherine ample opportunities to Seduce Nikolai."I was thinking that it's time for Cathy to learn some tactics in business. I was wondering if you could hire her in NK Apparels as she is a designer

He immediately stood up to his feet and blocked Ivy with his body so that she could not be seen by William and Catherine.Ivy jumped with fear and misunderstood that he is angry with her. She stood up from the bed with the intention to leave. That brought her body unintentionally close to Nikolai's. Her breasts are just a breath away from touching his torso.Nikolai didn't move. But instead he turned his head and looked at William with a glare. He is not liking the look of lust in William's eyes. "Is there any problem with your hearing ability? I told you to leave" he snapped coldly.Ivy's body tensed with fear. Seeing him this angry, she is scared. She understood that Nikolai is not speaking with her. But still she froze on the spot.

Every person who is involved in his parents murder will get what they deserve.He didn't tell Ivy where they were going. He wanted to see her genuine reaction when she met Stevenson. The Nina's are not someone whom Nikolai can offend casually. They have both old money and power. If he goes against the Nina's, they will not keep quiet. They will definitely retaliate.

    After three years...Nikolai and Ivy were relaxing outside their family vacation home. Their two year old daughter is seen playing with Noah, who is all too happy to indulge her every whim. She is the apple of Noah's eyes. The fact that she resembles a lot like Ivy added a lot to his pampering. He will not say no to anything she asked of him. "I am happy" Nikolai confessed out of the blue" Ivy gave him a surprised look. "I never thought I would be able to find someone who would understand me the way you do. You share my past and my pain. You never judged me for my actions. You supported me in everything I did. But the feeling of revenge will keep a fire of anger burning inside you. What we never realise is, that fire will burn us as well. I never had a peaceful day before I kidnapped you. I ran after my past to avenge my parents. Life was filled with bitterness and anger. But now, it's filled with love and laughter. Because of you. I am so happy that I kidnapped you that day" Niko

    Ten years ago.... In the Knight mansion... "What? Forgive him? Samuel, have you looked at what William did to his wife? He killed her. How can anyone forgive a monster like him?" Nikolai's mother demanded angrily. Samuel is not happy to hear this. "We are friends. Let's just forget all that and get back to normal" Samuel suggested and tried to use the friend card. Nikolai's mother shook her head with displeasure and sadness. "She was my friend too Samuel. And she begged me to help her. What did she do to deserve such a fate? I am not letting him go. He has to be punished" she insisted. Samuel lost his cool. He looked at Nikolai's father for help, but he didn't get any. It's clear that Mr. Knight is supporting his wife. "So be it" with that said, Samuel slapped Nikolai's mother hard across her face. She stumbled and fell down on the floor. Nikolai's father lunged at Samuel, but Coco and Mills appeared from nowhere and grabbed him from behind. "You brought this upon yourself"

    After Nikolai and Ivy left, Coco was scared half to death. He was standing on the thin and narrow ledge while Rattle snakes were hissing just a few feet underneath him. To his horror, those snakes are not content in staying there. They are crawling up the wall and on to the ledge where he was standing. He tried to scare the snakes away. And he succeeded a few times before one of the snakes refused to leave the ledge. It started coming closer and closer to him. In his haste to move out of the way, he tumbled and fell onto the floor where so many snakes are there. The moment he fell, all the snakes bit him at once for scaring them and hurting them. "Ahh..." "No.." "Help..." Coco tried to pull himself over to the ledge again, but was unable to do so as he started to lose control over his limbs. His limbs started to go numb and paralysed within minutes. He fell back over the snakes once again. But this time he found himself unable to move. He is still alive, but he couldn't move. Not

    In the warehouse, Coco is restrained to a chair. Despite being at the mercy of Nikolai Knight, he was looking very smug and happy. He is a very cunning man who can twist any kind of situation to his advantage. Just like how he did it with Nikolai. The previous day, when Nikolai came to see if he came back to his conscience, Coco started to sow seeds of discord and doubts against Ivy. Twenty four hours ago... 'You don't know what Ivy is like. She is not right in her head. Jason knows it better. That chip tampered with her mind and made her insane. What would happen if her mind becomes unstable in the future? Do you want to risk it?' Coco started his manipulation. Nikolai was quiet, not speaking a single word. When Nikolai was silent, Coco thought that Nikolai was buying his words. 'We had to admit her with a shrink so that she could feel better. There were days when she would even forget to do basic things like taking a bath and eating.

    When the beauticians were finished, Ivy looked extremely beautiful. Just as beautiful as a bride. The blue diamond studded necklace is both subtle and elegant, matching with the earrings. Ivy never dreamt about how she would look as a bride. But now, looking at herself in the mirror, she wouldn't have imagined her better than this. "This would complete the look" with those words, a veil was draped over her head, surprising Ivy. Now she is looking like a bride who is about to be married in a moment. Ivy is confused. All of this started as a dress trial, where she ended up like a bride instead. "Luna..." Ivy turned to ask Luna what was going on, but she noticed belatedly that Luna is no longer in the room and even the beauticians are leaving. No one gave Ivy a chance to think more about what is happening around her. Instead, Noah walked inside the room in his tux and his hair combed back neatly. He trimmed his beard and moustache. He is looking younger and better than how she r

  • Obsession with his Captive    Proposal

    After taking away Coco under the guise of attempted Suicide, they made it look like Coco's condition is not stable. They arranged a dead body which resembled a bit like Coco, but a bit darker in colour. The doctors already lied to Coco's wife that Coco's body turned dark due to the kind of poison he took and she believed him. After a couple of hours, they will declare that he died and will keep the body in the morgue for an autopsy, as it was a suicide case. After the autopsy they will bandage the body after that so that no one could recognise that the dead body doesn't belong to Coco. On the other hand, the real Coco is in Nikolai's warehouse. Still unconscious after drinking the spiked juice Ivy gave him. In the meantime, Nikolai looked very content for the first time in ten years. His heart was not chaotic and demanding to see the blood of those people who killed his parents. He is relaxed without the burden of his revenge weighing him down. "What are we doing here?"

    Coco was feeling sad after Jason was taken away to an asylum. His wife was not pleased, but he couldn't do anything. "So much money and so many connections. But now, nothing is useful. No one can bring my son's sanity back" he thought sadly to himself. He vaguely heard the front door of his home being opened and closed. But he didn't give it any mind. He is not happy with the recent events. Until a voice greeted him. The voice of the person whom he heard almost a decade ago. "Long time no see Carlos" Noah spoke up, startling Coco. Immediately Coco snapped out of his daze and looked at the man who was supposed to be in an asylum, but somehow was standing inside his home. "Noah? You? How did you come here? Did you escape from the asylum?" he inquired with shock. Noah smirked. "Why should I run away? I am not mentally retarded in the first place, am I?" Noah asked with a smile and made himself comfortable on the couch. Coco wheeled his wheelchair closer to Noah. He still couldn't

    "I still can't believe that Carlos and Jason did all that. I used to feel like, Jason is the most genuine person and I was very happy that he was there to take care of you when I couldn't. To hear that they did all this and manipulated us to this extent, it's shocking" Noah spoke up after a long silence. After the initial fear and anxiety that made Noah almost paralysed with how petrified he was in Nikolai's presence, he recovered slowly. The funny banter between Richard, Nikolai, Philip, Shawn and Bryan made his anxiety go down a little. And when Ivy reprimanded all of them and asked them to get out, they all obeyed without another word. After they left, Noah relaxed even more. The fact that his daughter has the authority to command the most feared man in the city and he simply obeyed made him assured that things are not as bad as he assumed them to be initially. After that, Ivy showed him to his room where she filled the wardrobe with new clothes for him to wear. He took a showe

    "Facility? You mean an asylum?" Coco asked with shock. Philip nodded his head gravely. "It's for his own good Mr. Carlos. If he is not treated immediately, no one can tell what he would do and whom he would hurt in the future. He just assaulted you today. He might kill you tomorrow if he is not treated properly. His condition will only deteriorate from here. It's not safe for you, or anyone in your home. If he manages to get out of the house, he might even hurt a passer-by. It will only give you unnecessary headaches. I am sure no one would want a potential lawsuit on their heads" Philip thoroughly scared Coco. Coco is conflicted. Jason is his only son and the heir of his fortune. He cannot possibly send him to an asylum. Ivy saw the hesitation on his face. It's clear that he doesn't want to send his son to an asylum. 'He readily trapped my father in a mental institution, and was ready to send me there as well. But now he doesn't want to send his son? What a joke. I was someone's
