Aden Bruce POV
I was happy because finally after so many years I was going back home. Although there was someone at home I really didn't like but I was excited to meet Mom, Dad, and my younger brother Jason.
I have completed my studies two years ago and Instead of Dad's company, I decided to struggle for my independence by myself staying here rather than in my country. I got a job in a multinational company and I was happy there. I didn't want to help Dad because Xavier my elder brother was already helping him.
I didn't like him and I knew we won't be able to handle the company together. I was avoiding this situation for a long. I always hated his selfish nature and that's why we never talked to each other properly. Apart from his selfish nature, there were some other reasons too.
But that day when I got a call from Mom and she told me about Dad's heart attack and she wanted me to come back. Dad was insisting too so I decided to move back to my country permanently. I wanted to stay with my mom Dad then. They needed me.
I packed up and went towards the airport immediately. I wanted to meet Dad as soon as possible. But the flight was late. I grabbed my ticket and was roaming around to pass my time.
I was buying the soft drink for myself when I saw someone and for a moment my heartbeat stopped. I was dreaming I thought. I was frozen at my place.
But It wasn't a dream. She was standing right in front of me talking to a girl. I wasn't believing my luck. I was looking for her for the last 2 years and here I found her at the airport. I didn't even know her name but I had feelings for her since the first time I met her.
I wanted to say hello to her at the moment but I was already so excited to see her. I didn't want to look desperate. I sat on a chair and after saying goodbye to her friend she was coming near me and my heart started beating fast. What if she recognized me? What if she remembered me?
I was thinking of all that but instead of saying something, she sat on the chair near me. There were two chairs between us. She was busy reading a book and I was unable to take away my eyes from her. How could that be possible? The face I remembered every moment in the last two years was finally in front of me. I wanted to jump with excitement but I controlled my emotions. I wasn't believing my luck.
She looked at me once and again started reading the book. At that moment my heart was dancing. I was seeing her beautiful hands and a bracelet was making it look more pretty.
She got a call. She was telling someone about her flight time and when she used my city name I was happy because she was going on the same flight and to my city.
I wasn't caring for anything. I decided to talk to her then but before I said anything she closed her book and I looked at her beautiful face. God, she had become more beautiful now. Her alcoholic eyes and beautifully carved lips with a beautiful sharp nose. She was just perfect.
Girl "What's your problem? Why are you staring at me?"
I forgot my words.
Aden " Oh! Hi, I am Aden. We have met before. Don't you recognize me?"Her facial expressions changed immediately.
Girl "Listen Mr. Aden. I am not the type of girl who would get impressed by your cheap tricks. Go find someone else for your Entertainment. You chose the wrong girl."
She was behaving as if was meeting with me for the first time. She was thinking I was a flirt. I wanted to clear the misunderstanding.
Aden "Listen you are taking me in a wrong sense. Don't you remember two years ago we met on that bridge?"
Girl "Listen Mr. I am not interested in your self-made stories. I know guys like you very well."
She immediately got up and went away. I was cursing myself for ruining the moment. I should have behaved like a gentleman. I was an Idiot.
I Never acted like that but my senses went numb when I saw her. It was totally unimaginable meeting. obviously, I was staring at her like I was seeing a girl for the first time.
I won't let her go this time.After the announcements for our flight, I got up and went there. As I entered the plane I saw her sitting away from me but I was able to see her properly. I was happy with that already.
She was busy on call and she looked at me and after giving me a death glare she turned her face away. I smiled at her cute action. I was trying to not look at her but how would that be possible. The person I looked for long was sitting right there.
I wanted to hug her but I had no right to that. had no idea about my feelings. She was already behaving rudely. She would kill me I knew. I was still looking at her when she called the stewardess.
Girl "I want to change my seat. Can you help me out?"
The seat near me was empty.
Aden "You can sit here miss!"Her face was turning red gradually. She didn't get any other seat and was again busy reading books. I was smiling.
Aden "My offer is still valid."
Girl "I really wonder how you managed to get this business class ticket. Now if you wouldn't stop staring at me I would complain against you for harassing me."
Aden "What? Look miss whatever your name is. I was just trying to talk because I wanted you to remember me but I guess you have no idea about that."
Girl "Not again. Stop this drama. just shut up. "
Her beautiful eyes and red tomato face were making her look more gorgeous.
I had no other choice than to forcefully look away from her. We landed safely and after coming out I was looking for her but she wasn't there. I came out of the airport and was looking around. She must have left.
I didn't tell anyone at home about my plan so I hired a cab and got in. I was still thinking about her and I was praying to meet her soon. I never imagined that my prayer would be fulfilled soon.
Aden Bruce POV It was quite late in the night and the weather was bad. It was about to rain. I was enjoying the beautiful weather in my city. I was imagining her beautiful face while looking out of the window when I noticed a car on the side of the road. It was her. I stopped the cab and went out. The beautiful way she turned her eyes away from me. She must be thinking I was stalking her. Aden "Is there any problem. I can help you out." Girl "No we don't need your help. You can leave." She was with her friend I guess. Although she was ignoring me her friend was really a nice girl. "Yes, Actually my car stopped here suddenly. I was checking but I have no idea what happened. Can you please help me out?" Aden "Yeah Sure." I was about to move towards them when she said "We don't need his help. Let's call a cab. We don't need anyone's help." But her friend was insisting "No, we do Mel." She ca

He was asking me about my job and when he asked about my flight. I smiled thinking of that beautiful fa
Aden Bruce POVShe immediately shook my hand and God her Red tomato face and her alcoholic eyes were captivating me. I didn't realize what she was saying. But probably was abusing me and was asking me to stay away and stuff like that.I was noticing her beautiful face and the way she was rolling her eyes. I wasn't reacting and she was continuously insulting me. After some time she moved and sat on the driving seat. She was about to start the car and I hurriedly sat inside the car on the front seat.She was about to eat me.Mel" Why are you getting in? Why are you being so annoying? I have already told you that I am not interested in you. Please leave. I am gonna call the cops."She was about to dial the number and I snatched the phone. And she was trying to get it.Mel "Give me my phone right now."Aden "Take it. It's here."I placed it on the dashboard in front of me and she was about to get it and I kissed her beautiful red c

Aden Bruce POVShe was telling me about her and I was taking steps towards the car.Audrey "Aden please I don't want a scene here at this time of night."Aden "Don't worry I won't bother her. I will apologize. "She didn't say anything and was standing there and I opened front door and she almost fell out of the car but I held her. She was sleeping on front seat.She was holding a beer bottle. I was trying to take it and she opened her eyes and God those Alcholic eyes were killing me. She was trying to believe that it was me.Mel "Bravo Now You are looking just like him Audrey. God this man had collapsed my senses."I smiled listening to that. So She was thinking that she was imagining my face. I was caressing her hair and was setting her disorganized hair strands.Mel "I hate him.

Aden Bruce POVI was calling her and she wasn't picking up my call. I then sent her the car picture and I called her.Aden "Happy now? I have just sold out my kidney for your car."Mel "That's good. Give it to my driver. He would call you."Aden "Not at all. I am coming to your house. What about having a dinner together?"Mel "You wish."She disconnected the call after that harsh tone. I went to her house. I stopped the car and called her.Aden "I am here my love. Come outside I am dying to see you."She disconnected the call and I was standing outside the car holding the bouquet. She came out of her house with red face. She came near me.Mel "How dare you call me your love? Give me the keys and get lost."I knew she would react like that. I was holding the bouquet and I stretched my arms and I wanted to give it to her.Aden "I am sorry"Her reaction changed and she was looking at me curiously.
Aden Bruce POVFor the first time I looked inside the house. Her living room was a mess. It felt like she had been throwing the stuff to overcome her anger or frustration.There was a beer bottle too. She had been drinking it too. But it wasn't empty yet. She was drinking it right before I called her. I looked at her and she was closing her eyes and was sleeping peacefully on my Heart.I smiled and lifted her immediately in my arms. I was looking for her bedroom and I entered in. I placed her on the bed and placed the blanket on her.I sat down holding her hand. I kissed her hand. I was thanking God for saving me from doing anything. I didn't want to take advantage of her in her weak moments. I wanted her more than anything else but I wanted her love and I wanted her to feel the same for me.I didn't want her to regret. She had been so bold and brave infront of me till the day I met her in flight. Even I kissed her in the car stil

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.

He was really frustrated and I knew how much lonely he had been last month.I wasn't able to tell him how much love and respect he had earned in my heart because of his trust and faith in me. 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 was about to get up when he pulled me towards him and kissed my lips.It was a short kiss and he hugged me. I was placing my head on his shoulder and he was caressing my cheek.

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. He called me once but I didn't respond. I thought I would go out when he would call me again.I was staying in since half an hour and he didn't call me again. I thought he might have slept. I then came out
