In the evening, Roseanne, accompanied by her two kids, eagerly prepared for a party. Upon reaching the venue, they were assigned a table. As the party started, four of them were already settled. Coco engaged herself in the beautiful fashion show organized by the brand, showcasing her interest in style and trends. Meanwhile, Leon relinquished in the tasty delights, savouring the delicious desserts brought by attentive waiters. In the middle of the hustle and bustle, the kids had already discovered their source of entertainment.

While her kids were engrossed in their respective entertainments, Roseanne took on a more observant position. She was analysing everything about the environment with keen eyes.

Although the kids were enjoying themselves, she knew that she did not come here for the same purpose. She was here for work and she had to finish it. The party was good but it did not entertain her that much.

For some reason, she was having ominous feelings. She could not understand wh

    “No, I can go outside. My mom and sister might have gone to the ladies’ washroom.” He wanted to say something snarky to this man but stopped himself as he realized that he couldn't say it as the latter only helped him. Reluctantly, he added, “Thank you, Mister!”Of course, he would not take any more help from this man. Moreover, he did not want Coco to tease him more by knowing that he could not even pee alone. Nicholas raised his brow at the boy's mannerisms and before he could say anything, the boy ran from there. As Leon reached outside, he saw his mother and sister waiting for him. “Let's go, Leon,” Coco said. She grabbed his hand and began running towards the venue. “Kids, don't run!” Roseanne said. “I can't catch up with you.”At this time, Nicholas left the washroom and happened to hear the voice. The voice left him in a trance. No matter how much he wanted to ignore that Anne Rose was not on his mind, he could not help but notice how similar it was to hers. Shaking his head

    Roseanne would never forget the day when Nicholas Hart made an entry in her life for the very first time. She used to remember that day with a sweet smile but after the betrayal it only scared her heart. The visceral hate that she had for Nicholas Hart began five years ago when she saw his real face. But eight years ago, she met the charming Nicholas Hart that made her fall for him in an instant. She was not someone who would decide to spend the rest of her life on the basis of a single meeting but Nicholas Hart touched the corners of her heart that she did not know existed. Sometimes, she wished that day eight years ago had never occured. The day when she lost her sanity and never recovered. *Flashback*"Anne?"A young girl in her early twenties entered the living room of her humble house as she heard her father calling for her. Her father was usually busy with work at this time of the day. It was surprising for her to see her father at home at this time. "Papa, I missed you, "

    "Anne, are you ready? We have to leave soon, "Her father said from outside. He had been waiting for her for a long time but there was no movement on her side. "Yes. Yes. I'm coming, "Anne murmured, looking at herself in the mirror for the last time."Are we getting late, papa?" Anne whispered as he was driving. "Will you get scolded by your boss?""I am sure they will not mind waiting an extra five minutes, "Her father said. Did her father really said that the Hart couple could wait? For a moment, she could not believe it. All her life, she had seen him giving the Hart family the respect one would give to god. She was not a religious person nor her father was but if he considered someone God it would be Nikolai Hart. "Is everything alright?" Anne asked. Her father had been behaving unusually. This time, he had crossed a big limit. Perhaps, she was thinking too much. Jacob looked at his daughter and said, "Yes, child. Everything is alright."Reluctantly, she believed his words. If

    "Kids, come join us at the dining table."Throughout the meal, Anne was on pins and needles. She could feel Nicholas' eyes boring into her. She was stealing glances at him throughout the time she was there. How could she not? He was the most beautiful man she had ever met. He emitted dangerous sensations but she ignored them and focused merely on his masculine magnificence. When the dinner was over, Anne returned home with her father. She wanted to bid bye to Nicholas who she had come to like a lot in a single meeting. Unfortunately, he left after the meal and she didn't see or hear of him again. On the way home, Mr Swift bought a tub of ice cream, making Anne even more suspicious of his move. It was when they were in their house, he confided in her, "Anne Rose, you have grown up to be a very beautiful and precious woman."Anne didn't say anything but she highly doubted it. She was a dull and plain looking blonde. There was nothing beautiful about her. Beautiful was the skin the Har

    The click on the door startled Anne who was sitting on the bed in her wedding gown, waiting for her newly wedded husband. She was in her new bedroom in the new home that she shared with her husband. It was their wedding night and she was nervous about it. She had never been close with any boy. She didn't know if she would be able to make her husband happy with her. After all, she was nothing special. Though she dared to live the big dream of having Nicholas Hart all for herself. Anne had worn the beautiful and sensual lingerie selected by her mother-in-law, saying that it would be useful to her. She was flushed when her mother-in-law gave her lessons about her first night. There was a noise again in the room. "Nicholas?" Anne whispered. "Is that you?"The room was dimly lit and she couldn't make out his silhouette as he was far away and she wasn't wearing her spectacles. "Yes, Anne Rose. It's me."His voice vibrated in her ears and her heart started beating heavily. Suddenly, she

    The first thing that happened the next morning was Nicolas making love to his newly married wife. Then, the newly wedded couple went to his parent's house to have lunch with them. In Anne's mind, she was supposed to leave for her honeymoon in the evening but the news that she received in her in-laws' home shook her to the core. "My father is arrested?" Anne asked as she heard the news. The various news channels were reporting the arrest of Jacob Swift for his involvement with the mafia. "That's a lie. My father is an honest man. He can never do that!"In every girl's mind, her father was the best person on the planet. Anne was the same. However, she had so many instances to cite that her father could never do the heinous crimes that he was accused of. He could not even kill an ant. How could he be associated with dirty mafias? She wanted to scream that his arrest was wrong and unfair. "Anne sweetheart, we can understand your pain. It's hard to understand, "Mrs Hart said, trying to

    One day while they were having dinner at her in-laws' house, she heard Ellora say, "You should consider LASIK."Anne never had a problem with her glasses and so she never considered surgery as an option. She liked her glasses as it had become a part of her personality. Moreover, she had changed herself a lot in the course of two years to be part of this family. She even got her natural teeth extra whitened that Ellora believed were yellowing. She changed the way she behaves, sits, eats, sleeps and everything to fit in this family. When Ellora asked about the eye surgery, she felt like her essence was getting snatched from her. For others, it was a small thing but for her, it was asking her to change her essence. "What do you say, Nicholas?" Ellora questioned her son who usually keeps himself away from her musings. "I don't have any problem, "Nicholas said without even bothering to look at anyone. Emery, Ellora's daughter added, "Then, sister-in-law should also get her crooked teet

    Anne was sad and depressed the whole day after she came from the Hart house. That place always made her sad. But she only talked to Emery and Ellora and she had nobody else to talk to. Even though they pain her sometimes, she had nobody else. That day Anne was surprised to find her husband at home. A tall woman with dark hair was crying on his shoulder. She didn't like the scene before her eyes. "Tracy, I can feel your pain, "Nicholas consoled the girl. Never had he ever consoled her like this, "Everything will be fine."Was he not always an apathetic and unemotional man? What happened to his usual personality or was it reserved for his wife only? The beautiful girl cried, "I don't wanna go home, brother Nick. I don't want to. My heart hurts so much. I can't go back there."She called him ‘Nick.’ She recalled how she called him Nick once and he raised hell over it. She spent a whole week coaxing him. She never gave him any nickname after that incident. Nicholas wiped the girl na

We tried to stop her, but—”Carter’s sharp tone cut her off. “Insolent! What kind of security am I paying for?”The secretary winced. “Sir, she didn’t come alone. She brought... reinforcements. And she insists she won’t leave until you meet her.”Carter’s expression darkened. “Where is she now?”“She is outside your office,” the secretary replied, glancing toward the door. “She said she wouldn’t disrespect you by barging in without permission.”Carter’s lips twitched with both disbelief and annoyance.

    “How are you feeling?” Leon asked, his voice gentle as he looked at Sia.“Better,” Sia replied softly. “Sit with me.”Leon quietly settled next to her. His patience and care had been constant since the night before, his every action showed how much he wanted to shield her from any pain.Sia hesitated before speaking. “You must be wondering why I reacted so badly yesterday when I saw Matthew Kennedy.”Leon could sense her struggle to approach the subject. “If it’s too hard to talk about, we don’t have to,” he said, his tone reassuring.Sia shook her head. “Leon, if I don’t come clean, I can’t move forward with you. I need to tell you about my past, about the things that have shaped me. I need you to understand.”“Okay,” he said with a nod. “I’m here. I will listen.”Taking a deep breath, Sia said, “Ask me questions, Leon. It might be easier for me to explain if you ask.”Leon’s brows furrowed slightly as he thought, then finally asked the question that had lingered in his mind for year

    Now, sitting in the bathtub, Sia was scrubbing her hair again and again. She had been doing it so harshly for the last two hours that Leon could no longer bear to watch. He walked over to her, gently took her hands in his, and said, “Enough... Your hair is clean.”Sia whispered, “No, it’s still dirty. He touched my hair...” Although Leon’s anger burned with the thought of that bastard, he held her hands gently and brought them to his face. Then, he took some shampoo in his palm and rubbed it into her hair.“He touched here, right? He dirtied your hair,” he said softly.Sia stared at him, unable to speak.Leon continued, “Let me clean it for you. If he dirtied you, I will be the water that cleans you.”He rinsed her hair with warm water, letting the stream wash away the remnants of her distress. Using the faucet, he carefully poured water over her body. Then, he lowered the faucet, gently removed her clothes, and she silently allowed him. He poured shower gel into his hands and loving

    Sia stood mesmerized, her breath was caught as she gazed at the most enchanting place she had ever seen, the Mirror Palace. Its splendor was unlike anything she could have imagined. It was full of labyrinth of shimmering reflections endlessly around her. Everywhere she turned, mirrors of every size, grand, small, and delicately intricate were there and dancing with light. She had wandered so far in her wonder while marveling at the dazzling maze, that she forgot Leon was still behind her.She moved deeper as she felt that her steps guided by an unseen pull until she reached a grand hall. Here, towering mirrors surrounded her on all sides. It was as if she had stepped into another dimension. For a moment, she felt as if the world had vanished, leaving her alone in a universe of her own making. Then, the sound of footsteps broke the spell. They echoed through the hall and they were deliberate and unhurried. A smile graced her lips, thinking it was Leon catching up to her. But as t

    His voice dropped lower as he confessed, “Oh, Sia baby, I have dreamed of this every single day.” Leaning in, his lips found her neck, planting a trail of kisses that sent shivers cascading down her spine. Each kiss was deliberate, slow, and tantalizing as his lips explored the soft curves and bumps of her skin. He sucked and nipped gently, leaving her breathless and causing her to arch her back in excitement. His tongue darted out, tasting the warmth of her skin. The sensation was electric, making her clutch the bedsheet to steady herself. She was completely at his mercy, her body responding in ways she didn’t fully understand. Every touch was igniting a fire within her. He moved lower while his lips brushing the space between her breasts. Her hands instinctively found their way to his thick hair, tangling themselves in the silky strands as his touch consumed her entirely. He moved further down kissing his way down to her navel but stopped just right above her pussy area. H

    When they reached their room after dinner, his gaze fell on her. She was sitting on the stool in front of the mirror while trying to remove her earrings, but she was struggling. He walked closer to her and whispered, “May I?” She silently gave him permission. He gently swept her hair to one side and carefully removed her earrings. As he worked, his hands lingered on her shoulders and their eyes met in the mirror. A soft blush painted her cheeks. Her eyes, though tired, but sparkled with life. He softly made her stand while turning her to face him. Dipping his head, he kissed her lips tenderly. After a moment, he murmured, “In five years, I see myself kissing your soft lips every day.” He whispered against her lips, “You are so beautiful, Sia baby.” Then, he claimed her lips in another kiss which deeper and more consuming. As he kissed her, her entire body trembled with need for him. She wasn’t embarrassed by the way her body craved his touch, how every fiber of her being begged

    The lovebirds were truly basking in each other’s company. Leon had planned a perfect evening, starting with a romantic sunset walk along the beach as their feet were sinking into the soft sand as the waves kissed the shore. Later, they moved to a cozy candlelit dinner he had arranged just for her. The gentle glow of the candles was reflecting in her eyes as he sat in front of her. “Leon,” Sia’s soft voice broke the serenity as she called his name. “Yes?” he responded, his gaze meeting hers with warmth. “Let’s play a game,” she suggested, her lips curving into a playful smile. “Okay, which game are we playing?” Leon asked, tilting his head with interest. “Let’s play twenty questions,” Sia proposed. Leon chuckled. “Quite cliché, but fine,” he agreed. Since the moment felt too magical to let slip into silence, the game seemed like a fun way to keep the mood alive. She pouted in mock offense but pressed on, “Are you a sunrise or sunset person?” “Definitely a sunrise person,

    “Sia?”“Hmm,” he murmured in reply, feeling his finger trailing along her shoulder. The rays of the sun bathed her body as they lay near the sea. They were on one of the private beaches in the Philippines, one of the most breathtaking places she had ever seen. For the past three days, they had been travelling. The first two days were filled with adventure, but today was a much-needed lazy day for both of them.“I think you need sunscreen,” Leon said, his voice low and teasing. “Hmm,” she replied, her eyes still closed. She felt him scooping sunscreen into his hands, the cool sensation was contrasting with the heat of his palms as he began smoothing it over her body. His touch lingered as he worked the lotion into her neck while gliding down her back, tracing every curve and dip with deliberate care. Then his hands moved lower, over her hips and along her legs. Just as she thought he was done, his hands reversed course and they have begun gliding upward with an unhurried sensuality. S
