Anastasia POV:

I have been really concerned about this whole event because the connection which I am feeling with my brand is too clear to ignore.

All the while, Ryan didn't let go of my hand. I believe that he can feel the tension in my body. The little crease on my cheeks and knuckles from time to time was everything which I needed to take my mind off the work.

The moment the event ended, I wanted to leave, "Shall we go?" I tilted my head in his direction and said.

"Sure." He smiled brightly and gave a slight nod.

"Hey Anastasia, are you leaving? I want you to join us for the after party." Sandra said to me from behind. I shut my eyes and tried my best to appear normal, although I was on the verge of losing my mind.

"We would love to. But my wife is pregnant and she needs rest." I heard Ryan's clear voice. I glanced at him gratefully, only to have his grip on my hand tightening.

"Oh." Her mouth turned into a big, round O. She put the glass of champagne back on the table

    Anastasia POV: My whole body felt stiff. I wonder if this is because of the heated s*x session between us or the pregnancy. "Hey, beautiful. Are you doing okay?" He rested his hand under the chin and watched me intrigued. I smiled and gave him a nod. His hand went under the covers to rub my belly, making me turn towards him. "I hope I didn't hurt the baby." He sounded concerned. "You didn't." My heart melted at his gentleness. Ryan leaned down to kiss my forehead. "Do you want me to help you take a shower?" "No, I can." I got up. I like him being rough with me and then gentle. Although he was trying his best not to drain my energy. I took a shower and had breakfast with him. Since it was Sunday, Ryan intended on working from home while I was already done with the drafts for the collection which I will be launching soon. However, my head is still filled with plenty of ideas for the upcoming projects but it doesn't hurt to take a day off, right? Before, I would indulge myself int

    Xavier POV:The ringing doorbell made me cause my brows to dip in confusion. There is no way it is Ana and I wasn't expecting any guests either. With a puzzled mind, I went to open the door, just to find Zayn standing there.Upon seeing me, he waved his hand. "What are you doing here?" I immediately asked."Hello to you too, brother." He grinned as he said. I stepped out of the way and let him come in. "Mom sent me. She gave, I guess, supplements for Ana." He placed the bag on the counter and turned towards me. "I hope I am not spoiling the weekend of the newlyweds." He leaned back on the counter and crossed his legs in a way that one of his ankles was resting against the other."She is not home." I plainly said. "Ohh." His mouth turned into an O. "For whom did she ditch you on a Sunday?" He cocked a brow and I really want to get rid of that smugness on his face. I rolled my eyes at him and whipped a cup of coffee. "She went with Beth." I don't know why I needed to tell him all thes

    Anastasia POV:I was working in my office, when Samuel came to see me. "Miss. Logan, I got good news."Samuel said, he was smiling ear to ear. Furthermore, Samuel is the only person who still calls me Miss. Logan, otherwise my title changed instantly after getting married with Ryan from Miss. Logan to Mrs. Weaver. To be honest, I like when he calls me by my real name. It reminds me of the part of myself which I don't want to lose after being with the biggest tycoon in the country. "What is it?" My eyes lit up. Everything has been getting quite boring. Beth is still mad at me for coming up with the craziest idea, my back is aching really bad while we haven't been able to come up with the solution which we are facing regarding the production. "The merchants have agreed to see you." He reported."Oh my God, really?" I got up from my seat and before I could hop in my place, my eyes flickered to my belly and I stopped. However, I gave Samuel a high five instead. "This is great. I really,

    Anastasia POV:I sat in the conference room, another layer of thickness was added to the air, my teeth clenched tightly and I glared at the man who had the audacity to give me a suggestion like that. "Mr. Matt, are you saying that I should buy the raw material from the black market?" My fingers dug into the skin so hard that I was surprised that they didn't start bleeding."Yes, considering your situation... This is the best option. I don't have enough stash to sign a deal with you. Secondly, you are well aware of how rare those are. You won't be able to buy them with the local dealers." He arrogantly added. "Wow, great." I sarcastically said, "You really think that I am dumb, don't you?" I shot laser beams at him, "You want me to get them from the black market, so later there can be rumors about how I got my hands on them and it wouldn't even take 24 hours for the stocks to hit rock bottom and I will be bankrupt in the blink of an eye." I explained it to him. He was trying to get un

  • Taming the Devil   Hard hit.

    Ryan POV:Days changed into nights and in the blink of the eye, a month passed. Ana has been really busy with the work because of the new collection on which she was working on. Since it was done now, I asked her to take a few days off. That's why she was sleeping soundly at this moment.I watched her peaceful angelic face and smiled. My fingers automatically went to crease her hair and I leaned down to kiss her forehead. "Hey, sleeping beauty." I whispered. I know it is really bad and selfish of me to disturb her slumber but I don't think I can spend the day out without talking with her."Hi." Her eyes still closed and her voice sleepy, which went straight to my core. Living with Ana has taught me one thing.... I am still a horny school boy. Even the simple gestures of her makes me hard and erect in seconds."Aren't you going to say goodbye to your husband?" I kissed her neck right on the top of her pulse. She chuckled and forced open her eyes. "It's not like you are going to war."

  • Taming the Devil   I love you.

    Anastasia POV:I was relaxing at home, without any worries and I seriously cursed that moment, in which I decided to surf on the internet and found news about myself. I haven't recovered from the shock yet, that my phone started to ring non stop. Samuel, Sarah, Ryan, his parents, my parents and even Beth. They all tried to get to me but I couldn't talk with anyone. After a while, they all got tired and gave me a break but Ryan is one persistent man. He never stopped calling me. My thoughts were a mess and my body trembled because of the fear. It wouldn't have been so bad if they didn't say that I am plagiarising someone else's work. This is my blood and sweat. Even when my back is killing me, all I can think about is sitting in the middle of the night and working on my drafts. 'An amateur brand, Stones, stole the designs from T-brand. It is also said that the gemstones and diamonds used in the designs of Stones are brought from the black market.'My blood was boiling at the accusati

  • Taming the Devil   Her biggest support.

    Ryan POV: I was really worried about her. No matter how hard I tried to brush away the image of her crying out of my mind, deeper it clawed in my head. I know, Ana got her pride when it comes to her work and when she said that I should support her, I couldn't say anything in return and I am feeling so helpless at the moment, that I am going mad. I rubbed my face really hard and tried to think of a way to get to her. Food seems like a bad option. However, the second I made my way inside her office, my heart inside my chest twisted and the aching pain turned into sharp and stabbing one. Within a few hours, she turned so haggard that I wanted to set everyone who tried to mess with her on fire. Ana doesn't deserve this. She is the most innocent and pure person I have come across in my whole damn life. "My goodness." I winced and pulled her in a hug and kissed the crown of her head while her grip around me tightened and she inhaled sharply. "Thank you for coming all the way here." S

    Anastasia POV:I sat in the conference room, listening to the directors ramble about how screwed I am. "Miss. Logan, you are being lax. This isn't good. You have to make a strategy and implement it. Otherwise, I fear that Stones is going to face bankruptcy in a day." The finance director stated the obvious.The stock price has declined to more than 50% in a day and the bank is breathing on my neck. Furthermore, Ryan is my biggest investor but he didn't say a word regarding that. 'I don't care what happens to my money.' His words echoed in my head. He said that when I told him that I will return every penny. I know the man is loud and floating in money, still I am feeling really bad. I can't be a failure. I sighed in exhaustion.The past night has been a hell. I stayed in my office and Ryan was with me too. He forced me to take a nap and I am really grateful for that. Otherwise, I wouldn't be able to even sit here. "You have to say something. How will we cope up with the damage? What

Ana held my hand so tight that her knuckles went pale while my fingers turned blue as the circulation had been cut off. But that doesn't matter. She is popping my baby out of her vagina... I am in no position to complain. "Push." The doctor said. I put my other hand on her too and gave it a firm squeeze. "You can do it." I whispered and leaned down to kiss her sweaty forehead. "This is so-" her breathing was shallow and the tears were rolling from the corner of her eyes. Ana was practically wretched at this point and damn... I shouldn't have forced her into having another baby."We are never doing this again." I promised her and even in the exhausting state, she managed to smile. I can't help but fall harder for her every single second of my life. "You realised this really soon and I thought that you want a whole soccer team." She mocked me and on the

    Anastasia POV:Soon, it was time for cake cutting but Beth wasn't here. Now, I was genuinely worried about her and Zayn was looking at me with disappointment filled eyes. I chewed my bottom lip and sent her a message. Ana: Where in the world are you? If you will not come to Kai's birthday, then don't even bother to talk to me. I threatened her with the hope that she might be willing to tell me whatever the hell is going on with her. I sighed as there was no reply even after 10 minutes. "Ana, we need to cut the cake. Everyone is waiting." Ryan said to me and when I looked around, it was true. The kids were about to fall asleep. I gave him a nod and Ryan held Kai in his arm and wrapped the other arm around my waist while we went to the area where we are supposed to cut the cake. All the attention was suddenly on us. The phone in my hand buzzed and when I glanced at the shining name on the screen, I immediately opened the message. Beth: I am really sorry, Ana. Something urgent cam

Just because I have the people who love me and support me. Tonight, I was the first one to get ready. Since it is Kai's birthday, we are having a party at our villa. Just with the family and friends, with the people whom I can call mine. I looked at Ryan who was putting cufflinks in his sleeves and smiles but that smile faded upon listening to him, "Just because I can't have you, it doesn't mean you can act cheeky with me. Stop f**king me with your eyes before I change my mind and put you up to something good." His gaze bore in mine and I instantly looked away. After years of marriage, just a little eye contact is more than enough to make me feel butterflies in my stomach. "You should get ready instead of running your mouth. Our guests will be here anytime." I tried to act sassy when I knew

The weather wasn't cold anymore. Thus, we laid under the bare sky, with our bodies tangled together and staring at the sky. I don't remember being this peaceful and calm in my life before. "Ana." He called me and I lifted my head from his chest to look at his handsome face. "Hmm?" I hummed both in response and at the feeling of his fingers that were running through my hair. All of my nerves were excited but relaxed too. "Are you happy?" Okay! This isn't what I expected. My eyes narrowed in confusion but I smiled looking at him, "What kind of a question is it? And here I was feeling giddy at the thought that you might slip another big ass diamond in my finger." I joked. "Ugh-" He winced, "What is it with women and their love for diamonds? You practically work with them 365 days a year and you still want a diamond rin

    Anastasia POV:Today we are leaving for our vacations and by 'we', I mean just Ryan and me. Although I want to take Kai with us too but thinking that I am not giving much attention to Ryan these days... it didn't feel good to take him with us. I also wanted to enjoy some time which belonged exclusively to us. So, last night, Zayn took Kai with him as he will be staying with his grandparents these days and Ryan, he is over the moon today. "I can't believe that such a thing is really happening." He said excitedly, like a little teenager who is excited to go on a field trip with his friends but I guess being with your lover is even better. "Why are you acting like you have never been on a trip before?" I teased him as I arched a brow and applied some blush on my cheeks. "I have never been on one. Not with a girl before." He confessed while putting his swimsuit in the suitcase. My hand halted and I looked at him through the reflection of the mirror, trying my best to understand that

If this is what you want.I smiled and wrapped my arm around her waist, pulling her closer into me while she sat on the bed with her legs crossed and all of her attention was on Kai. However, upon feeling my touch, she squealed and Kai frowned. "What are you doing?" She playfully slapped my shoulder. "Aren't you getting way too violent, sweetheart?" I said darkly, "And don't tell me I can't hug you in front of Kai. Kids need to see their parents being affectionate to learn something from them." I added. "Because there are so many things which I can't do in front of him. I can't say any bad words, I can't talk dirty."She scoffed, "What a creative way to justify your actions." "I am not justifying.
