Aria Anastasia
“Hey, babe, you coming to pick me up?” I asked after Zaiden received the call on the third ring.
I usually didn't call Zaiden this early in the morning because he always sent me good morning messages and said that he would come to pick me up. However, I didn't receive any texts from him today. That has never happened in the last six months of our dating. I wondered if he was feeling okay.
“I am already at the office, Aria. You can come on your own, can't you?” he replied.
I stopped buttoning my light blue blouse and stared at myself in the mirror blankly. “Oh, ok

The only thing that was roaming in my head was Zaiden's safety. Did he get shot by any of his enemies? Was he hurt? He only told me to help him and come to his mansion immediately.I parked my car in front of the gate and ran inside his mansion. I made my way to his bedroom without replying to the maids' greetings.“Zaiden?” I called out after opening the door to his room. He was nowhere in sight.

Chapter-1: A SecretAria AnastasiaMy black heels were clicking loudly as I took large steps while making my way to the cabin on the twenty-eighth floor. The entire floor had a waiting lounge, a reception where an assistant was present, and a familiar cabin of my boss, as in Zaiden Storm.I knocked on the polished door, asking, "May I come in?""Come in," came a deep curt reply.I stepped inside after opening the door, only to find Zaiden leaning against his black leather chair, his eyes glued to the screen of his laptop."Why are you so rude?" I kept the blue file on the desk, looking at the annoying man, Mr. Zaiden Storm, who also happened to be the CEO of this company.

Chapter-2: A ThreatAria Anastasia"Aria," Zaiden called my name, while I was still shocked at the scene happening in front of my eyes. He closed his eyes and opened them after sighing. He told the two men, "Handle the body. Leave the rest to me."Zaiden walked towards me and grabbed me by my arm. His green eyes met my blue ones as he said to me, "Come with me." He pulled me with him and I just abided by him.I couldn't believe that I was working under a murderer for these two years. Indeed, working here was my dream job, but that didn't mean it was my dream to work under a gangster. Was he in the mafia? Did Kael know about it? Or was Kael Storm the boss of the underworld and Zaiden was handling his father's business?Plenty of questions were roaming in my mind.

Chapter-3: Being ProfessionalAria AnastasiaI slid the red button on my phone, rejecting my mother's phone call once again. I didn't want to talk to her or my best friend, Freja—it was better in that way. After returning to my apartment last night, I didn't speak to anyone. I had put my phone on silent and told Yana to email me if there was anything related to work.I didn't even sleep properly last night until I made up my mind to stay fully professional now. Whatever I saw last night was just a murder-mystery movie which I watched live. Nothing else. With that thought, I came to the office early today to complete the extra work, which I couldn't complete yesterday.I untied my ponytail and let my hair down because

Chapter-4: Resignation LetterAria AnastasiaA gasp escaped my lips, seeing a real gun in front of my eyes. It reminded me of the dead body I saw last night. "No!" I dropped the files from my hands and covered my face with my hands in fear.I could feel a hand being placed on my shoulder just when the elevator made a 'ding' sound."Aria, are yo—" before Zaiden could complete his sentence, I pushed his hand away from my shoulder. Picking up the documents from the ground, I dashed out of the elevator, leaving him behind.Instead of going inside the conference room, I went to the washroom first. I kept the files at one side and turned towards the sink. I splashed some water on my face, trying to forget the dead body which was bleeding in front of my eyes, and

Chapter-5: Vision DarkAria AnastasiaYesterday was Sunday, so the office was closed and I couldn't submit my resignation letter. I could've submitted it the day I wrote, but I was scared of Zaiden's reaction. However, today, I would give the resignation letter to Zaiden, come what may.With full determination, I entered the office. As soon as I saw the private elevator was about to close, I ran towards it. Soon I could get into the elevator.After pressing the button on my floor, I was panting hard because of the morning run I had to catch the elevator. I didn't notice anyone being in the elevator until a voice spoke, "You shouldn't run like that with those heels."I rolled my eyes and looked at Zaiden, who was standing at the other corner of the elevator, his hands i

Chapter-6: Captivated QueriesAria AnastasiaWhen my eyelids opened slowly, I found myself in an already illuminated and modern room. Everything was polished and glossy, only I was the one tied on a chair.What happened after I was walking out of Zaiden's office? I handed the resignation letter and got out of the room, right? Then how did I land up here? I tried to think about what had happened, but the more I thought, the more confused I got.Suddenly, I realized that someone placed a handkerchief over my mouth and made me unconscious through the chloroform.Did Zaiden do it? No, he wouldn't.Was it his enemy then? Why would his enemy kidnap me?"Glad to see you are awake, Ms.

I changed the topic because his reply was really giving me Deja vû. It was better to not talk about his reply anymore.Zaiden let out a chuckle in amusement. "Even, I meant that if I free you without explaining everything to you, the first thing you will do is run away, and Lance will kill you for that. So I cannot afford to lose you otherwise, I have to tolerate a new MD."I rolled my eyes. "You are selfish.""Yeah, right," he deadpanned. Then he walked somewhere and came with a key to unlock the handcuff. "Just stay still," he ordered.

Chapter-38: Perfect DateAria AnastasiaI smiled looking at myself in the mirror. I was wearing a light pink off-shoulder dress that reached up to my knees. I touched up my light make-up and was ready to go.Today I was going to spend the whole day with Zaiden outside. We were supposed to do that last week, but I had to turn him down because I had to spend time with Freja, that's why he has been sulking the whole week. She went back to New York three days ago.I went to open the door and grinned seeing my handsome boyfriend at the doorstep with flowers in his hands. He seemed embarrassed about it.I arched an eyebrow teasingly and said, “What's this about, Mr. Storm?”&nbs

It was almost as if I was trapped in a bubble of dreams and it would burst with the lightest touch.Ever since we started dating, we would rarely argue. As we started to get to know each other even better, we would understand each other's point of view more easily.

But as soon as her face landed on Zaiden and me, her lips curved up in a big smile.“You guys are here. Welcome, you two,” the woman exclaimed and rushed to give a hug to Zaiden. “Even though I saw you a month ago, it feels like forever, my son.”“I'm sorry I couldn't call you that often, Mom. How have you been?” Zaiden replied.Th

I wanted to strangle Zaiden for forgetting to inform me beforehand.By now, the shopping malls and stores were already closed. I would need to choose a nice dress from my closet now.I was tapping my foot out of anxiety when Zaiden pulled over the car near a shopping district, although the lights of most shops were out. He came over to my side and opened the door.I glared at him
