Five years had flown by, and their once-tiny bundle of joy, Noah, was now a spirited four-year-old with a heart as big as his imagination. It was a sunny morning, and the aroma of excitement filled the air in the spacious kitchen of their luxurious mansion. Today was a special day—it was Grace's birthday, and both Ashton and Noah were determined to make it unforgettable.

Ashton, donned an apron with as much determination as he approached his business deals. Beside him, Noah stood on a chair, his eyes wide with anticipation, wearing a miniature apron that read "Little Chef."

"Alright, buddy, today we're baking the most amazing cake for Mama," Ashton declared, surveying the array of ingredients spread across the kitchen counter. Flour dusted the air as he attempted to pour it into a mixing bowl, but a gust of wind, courtesy of Noah's enthusiastic clapping, sent the flour swirling in all directions.

"Yesh Dad! We got this!" Noah grinned, his laughter filling the room.

  • Only You   Prologue

    "I've had enough of you! I left everything for you, and what did I get in return? Nothing! I got nothing! And now, what's even worse is that you are blaming me for the loss you suffered because of your stupidity! You have a nerve John!" Screamed the 30 year old woman at her husband. If it wasn't for her husband's ignorant behavior, they would have been like a normal happy family like everyone else with their son and daughter. But no. John never had time for his wife as he was always busy making money. And recently after suffering a loss in his business, leaving them bankrupt, he blamed it all on his wife with baseless excuses. She had an idea about her husband's drug addictions and so knew what this was all about. She was tired. Tired of having to fight everyday. Tired of dealing with the same drama. At first she thought she could put up with his stubborn behavior, but how wrong she was. He only got worse as time passed. And everything had reached its limit. She couldn't bear to liv

    Grace's povI was very tired when I returned home. My legs were numb with all the work, and I wanted nothing more than falling dead on my bed. "Mom I'm home," I announced plopping down on the couch but did not get any reply. Strange. "Mom?" Normally she is always waiting for me in the living room with something nice prepared to eat. I checked the whole house but did not see her anywhere. But then my eyes landed on a note that was lying on the table. 'Gone for grocery shopping honey. Will be back in a few.' Well that explains why the house was so quiet. I took a shower and came out to do my assignment. It was actually tough attending highschool and working at the same time. I was almost done when the shrilling ringtone of my phone distracted me. Sighing, I answered the call. "Hello?" "Is this Grace Miller speaking?" The voice from the other side asked. "Yes. How may I help you?" "We are very sorry to announce that your mother got into an accident and she is currently at the hos

    Author's PovHe was greeted by his workers as soon as he entered his office. Many bowed down at him while others did not dare to say a thing in his presence. He only merely nodded at them. He was very cold and stern. A total workaholic. Would talk only to the point. Doesn't care about anyone but his business. Always looking for ways to win and be successful, even after having abundant success. That is what everyone said. Maybe they were all correct. Except they were missing a tiny detail. He didn't care about anyone but he truly cared about his best friend. The only one who has ever been with him in even the most difficult times. They have been together since highschool and both grew up as successful business men. Only that he achieved a little more success than his best friend and owns the number one empire in the world. Not that his friend was very far behind with the second largest business in the world. He took his private elevator to his floor, as he entered his office with prou

    Grace's POV After finishing the loads of work my boss dumped on me, it was finally time I reached home, not before buying an instant noodles packet for my dinner. Yep because that is the only cheapest meal I can afford as of right now. After having dinner, I checked my phone to see any important notifications. Having none, I called it a day and slipped into a deep slumber. The whole week went by with nothing serious happening, except for the loads of work, and my boss finally learning my name. He is still the same impossible jackass, but I just have to deal with it as of right now, because I'm in need of money, and this job certainly pays me better than any other I have had so far. I was making my way to the small kitchen in the office to get him his coffee when I saw I had company. I however ignored the man standing there and continued making the coffee. He of course noticed me and decided to start a conversation. "Hey," the guy smiled at me. "Hi," I nodded back at him. "You ne

    "Good morning," I wished Mr Knight as I entered his office to serve him his coffee. His ignorant ass of course didn't wish me back. But I was used to it by now. I proceeded to keep his coffee on his desk when I noticed something. He looked a little pale than usual. His eyes looked tired and he was breathing a little more heavily. He almost looked vulnerable. "Are.. are you ok Mr Knight?" I couldn't help but worry. He chose to stay quiet and continue doing whatever he was doing on his laptop. Suddenly his head rocked a little as his hand shot up to clutch the side of his head. "Oh God! Are you ok?" I instantly rushed to his side to keep him in place. His eyes closed momentarily as he released a deep sigh. I placed my palms on his forehead only to find out he was burning. He had a fever, and he was here this early in the morning working his ass off. Is he serious? "Mr. Knight, you have a fever." I gasped out. "Just leave me alone. Get out right now," his voice boomed in the office a

    Grace 's PovWe were making our way to this restaurant where he had to meet someone for a business meeting. I was in his car and the tension was thick. The silence was threatening and the hard expression on his face didn't help at all. We were at the restaurant in a few minutes. A guard opened my gate and helped me out. I thanked him softly before moving behind Mr. Knight, as he continued walking in his powerful strides. I had to run a little to keep up with him. We were escorted to a private area by the workers as soon as they recognized Mr. Knight. I saw that the person we had to meet was already there, and we joined him at the table. "Hello Mr Knight. It's nice to meet you finally." He offered his hand and Mr Knight accepted, shaking it firmly. "What is the reason that you wanted to meet me in a hurry Mr. Worthing?" Mr. Knight asked as he took a sip from his coffee. "Well Mr. Knight, I thought of the tempting deal you had offered my company a few weeks back. I have made up my mi

    Grace's POV The next morning I made my way to my cabin, not before wishing Valentina a good morning who returned it with a big smile. I placed my things on my desk before moving out to grab some coffee for Mr Knight. I took the cup in my hand along with a sandwich I had bought for him on the way, knowing he doesn't have breakfast. I gently knocked on the door and entered after hearing a stern come in. I wished him as I placed the coffee and sandwich on his desk. He eyed the sandwich curiously before concentrating back on his work. "What do I have on schedule today?" He kept his eyes locked on the laptop. "You just have a meeting today with Mr Steve to further discuss the project." I explained. For some reason I don't know, I didn't trust this Mr Steve. I mean that day at the meeting the way he was looking at me did not feel right. And then he even commented about me casually to Mr Knight. That too right in front of me. His eyes gave away something. Something mischievous. My sixth s

    GRACE'S POVI went to my cabin, still trembling a little from the incident that occurred not minutes ago. I redid the whole document and made sure to re-check it over and over again before finally submitting it to Mr Knight. He didn't even acknowledge my presence as I made my way into his office and placed the document on his desk. I asked if he needed anything else. Not getting a reply in return, I just turned around to leave. I sat on my chair before calming myself. Was I ever going to have a simple life without having to worry about money anymore? With having someone to care about me. Why did you leave me so early mom? Just why? A tear leaked from my eye at the memories I had with her. My mind trailed off to the days when we were all happy, living together as a family. With my elder brother always there to look after me and to kiss my boo boos when I got hurt. Was he doing alright now? Had he settled down in life? Had he taken over dad's business as it was planned? I just hoped

    Author's Pov "You look breathtaking," Ashton mumbled against Grace's lips as he continued to push her through the main gates of their home, locked in an intense liplock. Grace was lost in the searing heat of the kiss, her mind hazy with the sensual touches of Ashton on her body. "Too bad, the look's going to be ruined in a few minutes." He led her through the living room pulling her veil off, not having patience to finally make her his. He had given all the staff off for the day to not have any interruptions on their wedding night. The man was so impatient, as soon as the car halted outside the gate, he rushed out from his door to Grace's side, instantly pulling her out and smashing his lips on hers, not even waiting to get in. "Fuck," he let out a groan, cupping her breast giving it a squeeze earning a sinful moan from her lips. "Jump," he ordered and she immediately obliged to his command. His hands went to cup her hips as she wrapped her legs around his waist, instantly feeling t

    Author’s Pov In the soft morning light, Ashton Knight stood before the mirror, his fingers fumbling with the silk tie that would soon rest beneath his crisp collar. The room was filled with a quiet buzz, the scent of cologne lingering in the air as he prepared himself for the most significant day of his life. His reflection stared back, eyes reflecting a mixture of nervous anticipation and boundless excitement.The weight of the moment settled on his shoulders, a beautiful blend of anxiety and joy. Butterflies fluttered in his stomach, their delicate wings a testament to the magnitude of the occasion. Each precise movement as he buttoned his white suit jacket and adjusted his cufflinks, a silent vow to be the best version of himself for Grace.As he ran a hand through his hair, Ashton couldn't help but smile, the corners of his lips curving upward in sheer happiness. Today, he would make a promise that would echo through a lifetime, a commitment to love, cherish, and protect. The tho

    Author's pov The day was here. Grace couldn't help but feel her stomach churn in excitement and nervousness at the same time. If a year before someone would have told her she would be getting married to Ashton Knight then she would have blatantly laughed at the person for even having such a ridiculous and foolish thought. Her brain played a movie of all the flashbacks and memories she had spent with Ashton from the first day she met his obnoxious being to the day she started loving him. Yes, she hadn't told him that yet, but Grace Miller had fallen in love with Ashton Knight. If not, then she wouldn't have said yes to getting married to him in the first place. She giggled lightly remembering the times where he actually made her hate his guts. Just how fast the night changes. "I'm pretty sure whatever you are imagining is very pleasant but I need you to stop giggling Grace or I'll mess up your lipstick," the make-up artist scolded her like a child. "Sorry," she fought the urge to

  • Only You   Chapter 45

    Ashton's Pov My face contorted with fury as I remembered watching the security footage, my fists clenched in white-knuckled rage. The screen displayed the horrifying moment when the muggers attacked Grace. Determination had burned in my eyes as I made my men trace the motorbike's number plate, my mind calculating the best way to make them pay for their act. And right after two days, I was successful in finding those bastards alive. "They are in there Boss," I gave a single nod to my secretary, Luke, someone who I always ring up for these grave matters. With swift, purposeful steps, I made my way to the hidden torture room I had prepared for my special guests. The air was thick with tension as I entered, the dim light casting eerie shadows on the walls. My footsteps echoed in the cold, metallic space, amplifying the gravity of my intent. The two bastards were bound to chairs, their eyes wide with fear as they realized the tables had turned. My voice was low and dangerous as I appr

    Author's PovIt had been two weeks now and and Grace had recovered from her head injury. It wasn't very severe to begin with. Things would have been a lot different if the person had actually shot her instead of hitting her with the gun. Although she did suffer with a mild concussion for a few days. But everything was well now. And things had gotten back on track. Preparations for the wedding were now complete. "Damn, I can't believe all the days just flew and my big day is tomorrow!" Macy exasperated, dropping on the couch. "I know right?" Grace added. "I am so nervous. Gosh I don't know what will happen tomorrow. What if I fall walking down the aisle. What if…." "Calm down woman. Noting is going to happen. And I know you are going to slay your model walk down the aisle." Grace cut her off to calm her nerves. "Are you mocking? I am not supposed to model walk tomorrow!" "Hahah, given the enthusiastic freak you are, I can already imagine you doing that.""Shut up," Macy threw a

    Ashton's povMy heart leapt out of my chest when I heard the words on the call. Grace is in the hospital, we were mugged. They hit her with their gun. Macy had called me immediately after telling me that Adrian was already on his way. I literally raced against time, breaking all speeding rules to get to her as soon as I could, all the while praying nothing happened to her. My pulse quickened, sending a frantic rhythm through my veins as I clutched the steering wheel with white-knuckled determination. The tires of my car squealed in protest as I accelerated, the engine's roar mirroring the turmoil inside me. My knitted brows were a testament to the fear and urgency that gripped me.The world outside my car window became a whirlwind of blurred neon lights and indistinct shapes, each passing streetlamp casting fleeting, eerie shadows across my face. This was not how the night was supposed to end. They were supposed to enjoy it cozed up in their pillow fort ending it with a movie. She

    Grace Pov"What do you think about this one?" I pointed at yet another bridal dress hoping Macy would take a liking to it. "I'm not sure. Those flower patterns are not my type," this girl is never going to find her wedding dress like this. We've been out for three hours now and she has rejected every dress that was shown to her. "I was thinking about something with a slit maybe?" "Oh God Macy! You could have said that a lot earlier and by now we would have been done," I know I hate shopping but it's her big day and everything has to be perfect so I'm trying my best to keep my calm. I love her of course and my brother. And for them I could put up with this whole situation. "Ok, let me try this one," she took a beautiful white dress from the rack with a slit running on one side before going into the changing room. I decided to sit before my phone rang. Obviously it had to be Ashton. "How's my life doing? I hope your sister in law isn't making you regret your decision?" He cheered up

  • Only You   Chapter 41

    Grace's Pov The last week has been nothing but a bliss for me. Ashton did not miss a single moment to prove his love for me and to shower kisses whenever he saw the moment. The days I worked from his office were extremely delightful as everytime after working hours, we would go out to eat and then hit my favorite spot near a secluded lake. We would spend our time star gazing and then suddenly the air would get hot and make us end up in crazy sensual, most bombastic makeout sessions that I have fallen in love with. His kisses are something else. The feel of his lips, the way he takes control, almost makes me want to lose myself in him completely. We have kissed in places that I never imagined I would have in the first place. Having full blown make out sessions in the car and his office was nothing compared to the ones where he would sneak into the ladies bathroom and surprise me to have some fun. Not only this but once we got so lost in making out in the coffee machine room that he for
