I looked up to the building in front of me and sighed. Last night, I threw my pride away and decided to write Athena a letter. A deep.. and honest letter. I wrote it a thousand times and I even can't decide which one that I should choose. I don't even know if the letter can reach you either.
I walked into the Lemiere building and everyone that passed by were looking at me like I'm some kind of monster. I walked to the reception desk and asked the staff to call Matthew Lemiere. I was nervous as hell and I prayed every second so Matthew could let me in and talk to him.
"What are you here for, Mr. Redent?" She asked and I sighed.
"Wanna talk about the land in Colorado and about Athena." I said truthfully and then repeated it. She said yes a few times and then she

Athena LemiereI looked outside through the window and took a really deep breath. I can't believe 3 weeks have passed and I will get married in 2 days. I turned my head to the door and found my dad walking towards me with a smile."Hey dad." I said and I hugged him."Are you nervous?" He asked and I nodded."Don't worry.. Just don't trip over your dress." He touched my nose and I chuckled."Don't worry, I won't." I said and then I turned back to the view with my dad standing beside me."You know.. you don't look excited. I remembered when I was going to married your mom, she's crazy, but you don't have the same look as your mom.""I'm excited.. I'm j

Athena Lemiere"You look beautiful, Athena. It reminds me of your mother." My dad said as I tried the wedding dress for the last time before the big day tomorrow."Thanks, dad." I forced myself to smile. I felt my eyes hurting a lot because I've been crying lately. I put a lot of ice packs everynight but it seems it can't heal my eyes that fast. Jacob asked me a couple of times for it but I just lied to him that a bug bit my eyes."I hope I won't trip ober my dress tomorrow." I said trying to laugh but it came out as a really boring joke. I saw my dad smiled through the mirror."Your mom did.. she was the clumsiest person in this world." My dad said and I chuckled."Wow.. I can't believe that I will get married this young." I said a

Xander RedentI was looking at the building in front of me completely confuse how to get rid of the part that cross Lemiere's land. I still have the lawsuit with me and I guess the Lemiere's are too busy to ask me how to take care of all this shit."I guess.. we have to get rid of the parking lot and buy the land in front of it." I said to my secretary and he shook his head."I'm sorry, Mr. Redent, but the land right in front of us is Lemiere's too. We can't buy it because they're planning to build something." I sighed closing my eyes."So when will you get rid of it?" My whole body froze when I heard her voice. I turned my body slowly and saw her looking at me with her eyebrows raised.And again.. she took my breath away. She was w

Xander RedentI swear that I'm trying not to stare but I can't help it. She's sitting in front of me looking so beautiful and breathtaking, how can I not stare? She's the one that I want all this time and now.. she's someone else's.It's been 2 months since her marriage and I still can't believe that I still want her despite telling myself to give up."This is so good." She said and I nodded but I don't have any appetite right now. I miss her a lot and seeing her again was like a dream to me."You okay?" She asked and I looked at her smiling."I'm fine.""Why are you so uncomfortable then? Is it because you're eating with someone else's wife? or eating with the Princess of UK?"

Athena Lemiere"You already see him again?" Jacob asked as we walked at the garden inside the palace."Yeah, yesterday.""So.. he knows?""Yeah, he knows." I nodded."Still.. a lucky bastard." He hissed and I smacked his arm."You already move on too." I hissed back and he chuckled."So.. what brings you here?""I just want to see you.. I miss you." I said and he rolled his eyes."Miss me? You missed that idiot, not me." I chuckled hearing him say that."So.. how's Christine?" I asked.

Xander RedentI parked the car right beside the beach and I got out first from the car. I walked towards her side and opened the door for her. She got out and I held her hand walking towards the beach. We sat on the beach looking at the sea and Athena is still not saying anything.I looked around me to find something that could cheer her up. I found an ice truck but I don't think it can cheer her up. I got up from the ground and started to walk towards the side.I saw what I like and walked back towards Athena. I took her hand and pulled her towards the pier."Are you hungry?" I asked and she shook her head."Okay." I said and I pulled her towards the edge of the pier to see the beautiful view but still she's not interested. I wanna

Xander RedentI got up and slowly opened my eyes. I automatically look for Athena but she's nowhere to be found. Everything felt like a dream suddenly, I remembered when I cried my heart out when she's going to get married with Jacob. I got up in horror and my breath got heavier as I looked around at my empty room.Suddenly the bathroom door opened and I turned to see Athena, I took a breath of relief."Why are you shock?" She asked and I shook my head. I sat on the bed and closed my eyes to calm myself. I think I still can't separates what's reality and dream."Xander, are you okay?" Athena asked and I nodded."Yeah, I'm okay. Let's make dinner." I said as I got up and smiled at her. I walked first towards the door but Athena grabb

Athena LemiereI opened my eyes slowly and I got up slowly. Xander was still sleeping beside me and I got off from the bed. I took her shirt and wore it. I walked out from the room going down to the kitchen. I opened the fridge and found an ice cream and a cookie.I took it out and I opened the ice cream tub. I tried to look for a spoon and then I found it on one of the drawers. I started to eat the cookie with the ice cream. I sat on the kitchen table not caring that it's dark down here. I'm just so hungry.Suddenly I felt arms circling around my waist, I screamed in horror."Athena.. it's me!" Xander said before I can hit him. I took a breath of relieve because that scared the shut out of me."You scared me." I hissed and he chuck

Like now, even though I'm married, some girls still don't know how to get that fact inside their head that I'm not available anymore.Yesterday, when I was showering, Athena saw a text from a woman that I'm currently having a deal with. She was so upset and she's been ignoring me for 2 days. She doesn't even sleep in our bedroom, she sleeps in the guest room. It broke my heart and every time I wanted to talk to her, she just avoided me.Today, I went home early after my work and walked to the kitchen to get water. The maid came out asking if I need anything and I just asked her where Athena is. She said that Athena's currently in the th

Xander RedentBeing a speaker in a conference was not easy. It was tiring to speak and talk about business for hours with people who just started their business. I mean I'm grateful for this but I miss my girlfriend. Since last night, she didn't even answer my text. I was starting to worry about her but I know she has a reason for it. She might be busy.I sat down at the restaurant inside of the hotel that I'm staying at. I ordered a chicken sandwich because I'm damn hungry. I turned my head to see the fishes going back and forth inside the big aquarium. I closed my eyes for a moment and took a deep breath.I took my phone out and decided to call Athena. I put my phone to my ear waiting for her to pick up but she's not picking it up. Don't tell me that I said something wrong yesterday. Is she mad at me?

Athena LemiereIs it just me or what? Ever since I'm dating Xander Redent, I swear I turned myself into a needy girl. I didn't say that out loud to him but I just want him near me and be with me all the time. I hate the fact that he's going to Dubai for a week for a conference. I mean I can go but there's a lot of things that I need to take care here in New York.He flew there yesterday and I don't like it a bit. I started to miss him and started to send him a lot of texts which he replies but still it's not what I want. Gosh, is it because I'm on my period of something because I'm so crazily needy right now."Hello honey, is something bothering you?" I turned my head to my mom."Nothing, just thinking about the meeting later on."

Athena Lemiere!" Paparazzi were everywhere and I always get a headache everytime they're around.I walked into the building and went up to the 10th floor to see Xander. He came back from London yesterday night and I miss him so much. I opened the door of my meeting room and found Xander standing at the window. I ran to him and he turned to me right on time. I jumped to him and he chuckled."Wow.. never thought you will miss me this much." He said and I cupped his face."I don't." I said and then I have kisses on his face."That's th

We both actually know each other for business deals so.. I greeted her."Long time no see, Correl." I said as I hugged her briefly."It's been a year, Redent." She said as she patted my back. I chuckled nodding."So.. with Camery huh?""With Lemiere huh?" She asked back and I looked at her teasing."I ask it first, Correl." I said and she rolled her eyes."I mean..

My grandmother said and my grandfather took his spoon and start dig in. I turned to Xander and smiled. He looked so nervous and I held his hand under the table."No.. holding hands." My dad said."Stop it!" My mom smacked my dad."Can we have a peaceful dinner now? You guys already let me with him so stop giving him that look.""Who let you?" Chase asked and I pointed at my dad and my grandfather."Since when did you two become so cheap?" Caleb asked and I sighed.
