Aden Bruce POV
The next day I was busy in my work at office when I was called for a meeting. Mel introduced me with everyone and she told me about a meeting in the evening with the clients.
She was going to start a new project with another company. I prepared the presentation and she looked impressed by it but she didn't say a word for my encouragement. I was disappointed for that. In the night after having dinner I was busy on my laptop when I got a call from Audrey. She was looking worried.
Aden "What happened?"
Audrey "Are you with Mel?"
Aden "Why would I be with her?"
Audrey "She isn't home. Everything is broken. The door was left open. She called me two hour ago and she was home. Her phone is on the table. I am worried. I am gonna call her Dad."
Aden "No wait Audrey. I am coming. Don't tell him..I will search for her."
My heart was beating fast. I was scared. I didn't know how I drove till her house. I opened the door and
Aden Bruce POVAudrey "Be consistent like this. I know her she won't be able to resist for long. But please don't hurt her. Her past experience wasn't so good and she is afraid of commitment since then. I know she acts so coldly sometime but please stay with him. I know she will get soften for you."Aden "I hope so."Audrey slept after talking with me. I was again looking at her innocent face. This was the real Mel. The girl I was seeing in office was just a cover. I was holding her right hand when she wrapped her left arm around my arm. She was holding me tightly.I smiled and I noticed her injured hand. It wasn't a big mark but the blood drops that was sticking near that small wound was making my heart ache for her. I kissed that and her face expressions changed a bit. It was little bit painful for her.I got up and searched for first aid kit. I found it in a cabinet and I cleaned her wound and applied sunnyplast on it. I was continuously t

But listen to me calmly and promise me that you won't say anything to Mel."Aden " Okay I won't."Audrey "She was home last night when she called me. Alex entered home and was begging for forgiveness and was asking for another chance. Mel rejected him and asked him to go out but he started behaving weirdly. He started breaking everything and Mel was stopping him. He finally found a knife and cut his veins. Although She wrapped his wrist to stop bleeding but he wasn't looking well. So she had taken him to the hospital hurriedly. She forgot her phone. She then forgave him and she went to the bar."Aden "Wait? She forgave that rascal so easily?"Audrey "She didn't want that man in her life again. She wanted to get rid of this person so she chose to do this."
Aden Bruce POVShe didn't say anything and I stopped the car outside the restaurant. She was still giving me that questioning look.Aden "Oh come on Mel. It won't take much time. I promise we would leave immediately after lunch. I didn't eat anything since last night."She exhaled deeply and came out of the car. We ordered lunch and After having it she took out Cash and placed it on table.Aden "I would pay for this Mel. "Mel " Okay I am not saying anything. I am just paying my bill."Aden "Please don't do this. I am here I will pay for you."Mel "Why? Are you my boyfriend? My husband? Who are you? You are just an employee."Aden "Well I won't mind being your boyfriend or even your Husband."Mel "Shutup. We are getting late."We went back and Although I was acting cool but I was feeling bad when she called me her employee. She didn't even consider me her friend yet. I sat back and before starting the car I asked

He was looking confused seeing me there.Alex "What are you doing here?"His wrist was still covered with bandage. He sat down while asking that question.Aden "Look man I never had any personal grudge with you but now its getting too much. I told you to stay away from Melody. Why did you enter her house and threaten her?"Alex "I really give a damn to such nonsense. And by the way who are you? I am not suppose to follow your orders."Aden "So you won't listen?"Alex "Do you really think you can control me? And why the hell are you getting involved in all this? Its our personal matter. We both love each other and we are gonna marry soon."Aden" She don't love you. Don't you see that? If you are this much mad for her why did you leave her then?"Alex "So she told you everything abo

Didn't Mel say anything to you?"Audrey "I never had seen her this much angry with me. I promise she wanted to kill me when she realized that I had been telling you everything about Alex and her behavior."Aden "Don't worry she is your best friend. She will understand After a while. But try not to defend me infront of her. I will deal with her by my own way."Audrey "Please don't do anything stupid. She will forgive me I know but your case is different.

She didn't let me blink my eyes and got off me within no time.Aden "Okay I am sorry. I didn't mean that. Tell me what should I do now."She immediately organized her dress and opened car door and went out. But she stopped while getting out and took out a beer bottle from the car and went out.I have bought them to calm myself down at home alone after my girlfriend left me.Aden "Where are you going? Wait stop there."She didn't reply and was walking along the bridge and stopped and was trying to sit on the side of the bridge.I immediately went out and ran towards herAden "What are you doing?

I didn't think and jumped after her. I was looking for her and I finally dragged her out and she was unconcious when I took her out of the water.My heart was beating fast. I was rubbing her hands and after sometime she opened her eyes. She was coughing badly and I immediately lifted her up in my arms and ran towards my car.Mel "I am fine"She was hardly saying this. I wrapped my jacket around her shoulders
Melody Grayson POV Everything was so peaceful and calm and Aden's energy was draining my energy daily. He wasn't caring whether we were in our lawn or in the water or in the kitchen. He was just loving me crazily. I was really feeling shy sometime but he didn't care. He was enjoying teasing me. We used to play games and it was a rule that whoever would win he/she would be the king/queen for that day and the other one would follow the orders no matter what. I lost in the game that day and he ordered me not to wear any clothes. Not even my undergarments and I was roaming around in mansion like that. He didn't let me wear anything all day and the nights were already like that. But he was happy and I was satisfied seeing that. Although he used to get angry whenever I asked him to join his Dad business. That day he told me that he had a surprise for me and I really wondered what was that.

I trusted him blindly but I would have never been so brave to fight with my own family for him.But there he was leaving everything behind just for me. He was sitting there holding his head when He got a call and he finally smiled. Oh God I was dying to see him happy.

I opened that and there was a pair of lingeries and night suit.Alex "I love black color. Now if you don't mind can you please change the dress now? I can't wait."I never wanted to do that. I never imagined I would that for anyone else except Aden. I mustered up some courage and went into the washroom for changing. I was trying to waste as much time as I could.
