***

Anastasia came out of the recording room with a smile that could not be hidden. The atmosphere in the studio was light after a recording session that went perfectly. The songs were recorded in just one take, something that rarely happens. The studio staff applauded and praised her.

"Anastasia, amazing! You were really perfect today," praised one of the sound engineers with a big smile.

"Thank you," Anastasia replied in a happy voice. It felt like a huge weight had been lifted from her shoulders.

Lyra, standing next to Anastasia, also smiled proudly. However, her eyes narrowed as she noticed something that made her wonder.

"Uh, Ana..." Lyra spoke suddenly with a curious look on her face. "Why is there a red mark on your neck?"

Suddenly, everyone in the studio turned to Anastasia. The atmosphere that had been full of laughter was suddenly silent and all eyes were now focused on Anastasia's neck.

Anastasia's eyes widened, her hand reflexively touching her neck, feeling the reddish ma

    ***"She's back, are you okay?" asked Steven. "Did you really forget everything? All the memories of your teenage years with her?"Maximilian sighed softly and put his full coffee cup down on the table. "I have forgotten everything," he replied calmly. "The memories of our teenage years, the feelings that once existed... they're all meaningless. Besides, in the past I only admired Renata. It wasn't love, just the admiration of a growing man. There were no feelings that made me flutter when I was with her."Steven looked seriously at Maximilian, trying to read his expression. But Maximilian seemed so calm, as if everything he said was sincere. But Steven still had an important question."In that case," Steven continued quietly, "what about his past mistakes? Have you forgiven him?"The question left Maximilian speechless. The atmosphere suddenly became tense and Steven could see a slight change in his friend's face. Flashes of the dark past seemed to come back to Maximilian's mind, rem

    ***Anastasia sat on the couch in the recording studio, her eyes still wide open. It was after midnight, but she couldn't close her eyes. Although her body was tired after a hard day's work, her mind was still spinning. She had decided to sleep in the studio, just like the previous nights. After all, Maximilian wasn't coming back to the apartment, so there was no reason for him to go home.She let out a long sigh and looked around the quiet but familiar studio. This was the place where she worked, the place that gave her an escape from her never-ending worries. Tonight, however, that escape felt futile. Her mind went back to the meeting with her father, Rhett Noire, a few days ago. His father's cold words still rang in her ears.Suddenly, there were footsteps outside the door, followed by the sound of the door opening gently. Anastasia turned her head, surprised to see Lyra still in the company."Lyra? You're not home yet?" Anastasia asked in a low voice, looking at her best friend in

Her fingers scanned the screen, searching for any messages she might have missed while she slept. Suddenly, her eyes widened. Maximilian had sent her many messages last night, but she hadn't had time to answer them because she was too tired after a hard day at the studio. The last message was short, but it surprised her:"I'll be back. Call me when you have time."Anastasia's heart beat faster. Max was coming back? She hadn't expected him to be back so soon. So she pressed the call button, hoping to speak to her husband.But after a few rings there was no answer from Maximilian. Anastasia let out a long breath, feeling a little disappointed.

He couldn't take his eyes off her radiant face on the stage.His eyes were fixed as he listened to Anastasia's grateful words. And then, at the end of her speech, when Anastasia mentioned "husband" in front of thousands of spectators, Maximilian smiled faintly.

    ***Anastasia sat on the balcony of her apartment, gazing up at the late night sky. The cold night breeze hit her skin, but the chill was nothing compared to the turmoil in her heart. The glass of wine in her hand was nearly empty, and the bottle on the table next to her was nearly gone. Anastasia didn't usually drink, let alone wine. She knew she was a bad drinker, but tonight she didn't care. Her mind was too full and she just wanted to drown out the pain that wouldn't go away.He looked up at the empty black sky, only a few stars were faintly visible. In the silence of the night, her mind continued to wrestle with the images of the past that continued to haunt her. The pain, the betrayal, the humiliation never seemed to disappear from her life. Especially when her mother's name was mentioned, the wound would reopen as if it were yesterday."Mama..." she murmured softly, her voice almost drowned out by the night wind.

But he said nothing, just looked at Anastasia, who was now dancing with her own emotions."Darling..." Maximilian tried to stop Anastasia's movements, but she ignored him.

Then, slowly but surely, Anastasia stood on tiptoe and brought her face closer to Maximilian's lips.She kissed Maximilian's lips gently, and a warm glow immediately spread through her body. The kiss began slowly, as if she wanted to confirm that the man before her was indeed her husband, the one she had chosen to love.Maximilian was momentarily surprised, but his body responded

"I just want to talk to you casually."Maximilian felt a wave of anxiety that he couldn't ignore.
