Little did I know that this chance encounter would alter the course of my life forever.Life has its own way of intertwining destinies, often leading to unexpected turns that shape our paths in ways we never imagined. As I sit here, cradling my precious child in my arms, I can't help but reflect on the series of events that brought me to this moment. A one-night stand, an unexpected pregnancy and the agonizing decision to keep my child's existence a secret from his father.As the morning sun casts its warm embrace through the curtains, I find myself lost in a swirl of emotions tangled in the complexities of a life-changing event that occurred almost a year ago. I am a mother, a title that holds both joy and pain but one I bear in silence. It's a secret that I guard closely,
....... 5 years later..........The city continued to thrive and flourish for years after Ava left.At the city’s airport, Ava came out from the arrival gate with a large luggage. There was a four-year-old boy with curly hair beside her. The boy had black-framed glasses on his fair and cute face and he was holding a storybook in his hand.Ava was like a fashion model walking on a runway with that fashionable coat on her. Her wavy hair and fiery red lips elevated her beauty. Wherever she went, heads turned.Increased attention to her style was nothing new to her. She held the boy’s hand and walked further.When she walked past a man, the man froze on the spot and turned around.The man’s attendant turned to where his boss was looking. “Sir, I think she’s Ava Reynolds.”“Oh really?” The man grinned subtly for a moment. “Is that her… son?” the attendant muttered softly.Noah glared at his attendant. The attendant reverently looked away and followed his boss away.Meanwhile, Ava was wal
The sun dipped below the horizon, casting a warm, golden glow across the bustling city of New York. The streets were alive with the sound of car horns, chatter, and the click-clack of high-heeled shoes against the pavement. Skyscrapers towered above, their glass exteriors reflecting the vibrant energy that pulsed through the metropolis. It was a place of dreams, ambition, and endless possibilities.Amidst the chaos, in a penthouse suite perched atop one of those towering structures, lived Noah Anderson—the billionaire tycoon known for his ruthless business tactics and enigmatic persona. He was a man of power, wealth, and influence, commanding respect from everyone who dared to cross his path. His sleek, dark hair and piercing blue eyes, combined with his well-tailored suits, made him the epitome of success.But despite his achievements, there was a void in Noah's life—a void that no amount of money or power could fill. It was a void left by love. He had long since
Ava's POV It could be seen from my gaze and mannerism that I was uncomfortable at this charity gala. I had always felt that these so-called philanthropic events were an excuse used by the elites to meet up, socialize and acquire more networks for their companies in the name of charity and the sheer pretense of it all had always repulsed me.However, I had to come no matter how much I hated it because Adeline who was supposed to attend the gala fell sick and my boss informed me to make an appearance to represent the company in Adeline's place. In a way she intentionally choose me for this event because she knew how much I hated to attend, she must have wanted to piss me off. Anyways, she succeeded.I stepped into the charity gala looking all charming, though a closer look will tell you that I didn't want to be there. I made my rounds chatting and socializing with the elites, some of whom I had already met at some other work-related events after which I withdrew
As we glided through the dance floor I got the opportunity to know more about him. The more I got to know him, the more I was interested in knowing more. As the dance ended I grabbed a glass of water from the waiter who walked past me, downed it and went in search of the restroom. I guess I just need a minute to calm down before I get too invested in the fun and appeal of Noah and do something that I might regret.As I entered the restroom, I adjusted my makeup while I gave myself a strong lecture on the disadvantages of falling for Noah Anderson. To be honest, he caught me off guard because he was nothing like what the media painted him to be. I've heard a lot about Noah Anderson and I was expecting an arrogant and lascivious rich boss, not the calm and attentive young man I just danced with which confused me quite a bit because I was all prepared to handle the arrogant young master but this attentive side swept me off my feet and against my better judgment I'm intrig
It was raining cats and dogs in New York City as we exited the gala. Even the dark sky felt like it would crash on the city.Seated in the car, I could feel my body burning as I realized something was wrong. The water I drank before going in search of the restroom has been spiked. I had been drugged.I started writhing subconsciously as my whole body started burning up. I was very uncomfortable and was gradually losing touch with reality. "What could have happened and how did I get myself in this predicament"? These and many more questions kept ringing in my ears As I tried to gain control of myself and find my way back to reality, Noah's voice echoed in my ears."Ava, you should give the driver your home address, I didn't quite get that information earlier!"Ava, can you hear me?"Noah noticed that she wasn't responding and her expression was a little off so he drew closer to tap her hands to draw her attention as he assumed she was in a daze. As his hands made contact with her s
As the car turned into my driveway, the driver came around to open the car door and I stepped out with Ava practically sticking to my body. Her body kept twisting seductively coupled with her attractive and luscious curves she was driving me crazy moving around like that.The air crackled with anticipation and tension all through the elevator ride.Ava wasn't helping at all as she kept running her hands all over my body. At this point my patience was waning and all I could think of was ravaging that delectable body of hers. It's been a long time since a woman has made me lose control like this and I really can't say if that is good or bad but I couldn't care about it so much right now.The elevator stopped and I stepped out, heading straight to my room. I placed her on the couch in the living room and made to leave."Please stay" Ava mumbled with her hands intertwined at his neck.Noah couldn't resist anymore even if he wanted to. Fuelled by curiosity he couldn't resist the pull tha
Noah stepped into the bathroom to shower while contemplating how to deal with Ava when she woke up. On one hand, he would love to reignite the fire of passion he experienced with her last night, it felt like she transformed into a whole new being, her hands were all over him and she couldn't get enough of him just as he couldn't get enough of her.Just the thought of her sweetness makes him lose control even now and he wanted to be consumed by it so badly but each time he remembered how she threw herself at him cheaply he despised her.Taking off his white boxers he noticed a little blood stain which piqued his curiosity and made alarm bells go off in his head."You've got to be kidding me, right?" "She's still a virgin?" "She's definitely not a virgin".Noah couldn't believe his eyes so he went back into the bedroom and raised the bed covers to verify.His white bedsheets and her inner thighs had blood stains. She was still a virgin.Noah was stunned.He was woken out of his stupor

NOAH'S POVI had no idea where to start looking for Ava so I decided to start with the simplest option; the company where she was working. I drove to the entrance, found a suitable space to park and got out of the car. It was still fairly early as I could see workers trooping in. I approached the receptionist "I am here to see Ava Reynolds" The lady turned and gave me a weird look. "Who are you to her, Mister? May I know your name?""Noah Anderson" I replied.She paused for a second and I could almost see the changes in her facial expressions. She seemed to process the name and was flustered as she hurriedly picked up the telephone to make a call."I am sorry, Mr. Anderson. I will inform the Manager of your presence immediately" she mumbled. A few minutes later, a man in his early forties walked hurriedly towards me while apologizing profusely. A thin sheen of sweat covered his forehead as he ushered me into the elevator.The elevator ride to the Manager's office was relatively sile
NOAH'S POVI lay wide awake in my bed with my thoughts consumed by Ava. The memory of that passionate night together replayed in my mind like a broken record. The way her lips tasted, the warmth of her body pressed against me—it was all etched into my memory. Since the last time had seen Ava, I had tasted other ladies most of whom were just an excuse to get Ava out of my mind. However, nothing seems to be working. I had not experienced such a connection as the one I had with Ava with any of these other ladies and now I can't shake the feeling that I might have let something special slip away. Morning sunlight filtered through the window, casting a golden glow on the room. I sighed while running a hand through my dishevelled hair. I can't bear the thought of never seeing Ava again and there was a nagging feeling at the back of my mind these days that I just can't get over. There was something about her, something I can not quite put into words. She had awakened a
Ava had always been a practical and career-oriented woman. She believed in hard work and dedication, pouring her energy into her job as a successful marketing executive. Love and relationships were the last things on her mind. But one fateful evening, everything changed.With trembling hands, Ava tidied herself up, quickly glancing at her reflection in the mirror. She tried to gather her composure, mentally preparing herself for the day ahead. Today was not just any ordinary day—it was a crucial presentation at work, and her mind needed to shift focus from the whirlwind of the night before.Ava walked into the office, determined to push aside any lingering emotions from the previous night. She had always prided herself on her professionalism, and today was no exception. As she passed her colleagues, she exchanged her usual warm greetings, hiding any trace of vulnerability beneath her confident demeanour.As the day progressed, Ava poured herself into her work, immersing herself in mee
