To tame the wild horse Meeting new friend
Grusha's POV: 'You will see.'His words kept me awake all night and the thought of being used by the person who makes me safe and comfortable was terrifying to even think about. When I woke up this morning my eyes felt heavy and head aching as hell. No way that a single pint of alcohol could make me like this. Perhaps the drops of tears that overflowed my eyelids by time to time last night could be the reason behind this gloominess.I flipped the blanket off of me only to realize that I was still in the dress I wore last night. I must have passed out when I dropped my body on the bed though I was intending to wash up before going to bed. Well, I was not really in the mood to do anything after I got to know that Damien married me for his benefits which also made me question what I really want from him. Though Damien said sternly that he did not marry me for Aslanov inheritance or power he didn't exactly say then why he married me. I was sure that there is a reason that I am not aware
To tame the wild horse The blood line
Grusha's POV: "So how long have you been working here?"I asked while finishing my breakfast and circling the counter with the dish in my hands. He tried to take my dish from my hands when he saw me coming towards him."No, no, I will wash it."I said insisting and he hesitantly backed away, giving me space. I watched him scribbling in his notebook while I washed my dish."Since Damien was a kid? For a long time."I said in surprise as to how long he has been with Damien. He passed me a sweet smile as a response to my surprise. He looked like he could have kids in my age but for some reasons I doubt that."Where are the others?"I asked remembering seeing a few other cooks in the kitchen when I went to the basement that day."They went home?"I read it before he could finish. So now my doubt is a little bit clear. Now I know that either he doesn't have a family or he is not with his family anymore. He must have expected me to ask him why he didn't go home but I let it slide as I wipe
To tame the wild horse Tormenting the tormentor
Author's POV: Grusha’s hands were trembling but this time it was not out of fear. But out of rage. Her lips were quivering as she took shaky breaths in between her silent cries. Her eyes were fixed on the tortured body while another pair of eyes was fixed on her. She wrapped her hands around her body as if to stop trembling but to no vail. She was gawking at Victor's body while Luca down casted his eyes meeting the burning gaze of Damien. Everyone in the room went rigid feeling the change of atmosphere in the room. Damien dropped the knife he was holding as it fell to the ground with a loud noise which reverberated throughout the room. Luca snapped his eyes to Damien as Damien’s eyes ran back to his wife who was trembling badly in front of him. Luca watched how his eyes changed when he looked at his wife though Grusha was too preoccupied to notice any of that. Grusha slowly took steps towards Victor with her shaky legs as she tried so hard to conceal her sobs. Damien watched Grusha c

To tame the wild horse Unanswered questions
Author's POV: Minutes passed, hours passed with Grusha crying her heart out in Damien’s embrace before finally calming down and reducing her cries to soft sobs. Damien saw that she finally has calmed down and brushed some strands of messy hair from her face before cupping her cheek which made his palms to taint her cheek in blood. His gaze fell on her bloody cheek before running his gaze to see her body remembering she was sitting on the blood covered floor. And as expected her clothes and body was stained with blood as well."Sweetheart, we need to get you cleaned up."Damien hummed softly in her ear while brushing her hand up and down. Grusha didn't reply but continued to sob silently. Damien softly sighed as he wrapped his hand over her back and under her knees before effortlessly picking her up in his hands. He carried her to the door before tapping the door by his shoes to ask his men to open the door since his hands were already preoccupied. And within a second Luca opened the d
To tame the wild horse Unspoken words
Author's POV: "Why did you do it?"Grusha asked wanting to know the exact reason for his deeds."Cause I promised."He didn't wait even a second to answer since he had already given this answer back in the basement."That's not what I am asking."And it is not like Damien didn't know what she was asking and also he already knew the answer and the only problem was how far she would believe him if he told her the truth. And it was more like he himself couldn't believe that he did something like that for her."I married you to take revenge on someone. And also to prevent Victor from being the heir of Aslanov.""And you did.""No I didn't.""Then_""It was a fake news that I made for the time being to stop Victor from chasing behind your properties. The properties are still ownerless.""Ah. Then what about the revenge? Did you take it?""Sort of. I married you.""Who is that you wanted to take revenge on?"Grusha tried her best to not ask him that question, feeling him not being comfortab
To tame the wild horse He is the one
Grusha's POV: It’s warm. I wanted to stretch my body at the same time I felt as if I am squeezed. I turned around and snuggled closer to that warmness which makes me want to curl up against it. My eyes were still closed but I could not go back to sleep. I opened my eyes eventually giving up trying to go back to sleep only to come face to face with a muscular bare chest. I stared at it for a second before flinching and moving away from it to process everything. But I could not do anything as I was pulled against the chest once again by a hand wrapped around my waist. My mouth was gaped while I was processing everything."Good morning my love!"Damien's morning deep voice entered my ears and I tilted my head back to see him sleeping peacfully while sniffing my hair."Good morning."I said while pushing back to move a bit away from his embrace to take a good look at his face. I recalled yesterday memories as my eyes ran all over the sleeping face of the handsome man next me who I call my
To tame the wild horse First day as Mrs. King
Grusha's POV: "Ma'am"I flinched and turned around at the voice only to find Gomez standing behind me with a worried look. Was I that zoned out to notice him coming or does he have cat claws?"Umm...Good morning. I just wanted to make something to eat."I said as he began scribbling in his notebook hurriedly."Thank you for being considerate uncle but I want to make breakfast today."I answered before completing the sentence."I insist.""Of course. That’s so nice of you uncle."That's when the kettle's light went off indicating the water is boiled."Well I wanted to refresh everything. That’s why I wanted to make breakfast today. Would you like some cappuccino first?"He started refusing as he waved his hands but somehow agreed nodding his head when he met my gaz

Author's POV: "Okay. I will think about it and inform you of my final decision. You may go now." Grusha said while finally leaving the chair that she has been sitting for the whole time. The dim lights of the office room made it more visible for someone who looks from the outside since the surrounding was that much dark. She was too preoccupied with all the work to notice that she had Luca coming to her office to remind her that it is almost the time to return home. Damien used to drop her off and pick her up from the office until she eventually requested him not to which he hesitantly agreed at last but only with the condition for her to return home early and if she were to stay overnight she will have to keep her bodyguards with her until she returns.

It’s only been few days since he joined the company and this is the first time she has ever talked to him. Though Grusha was not happy with the idea of having secretary she could not let anyone have any suspicion of her. If anything she wanted to become closer to her employees.

To tame the wild horse The two puzzle pieces
Author's POV: A loud thud was reverberated breaking through the not quite yet calm atmosphere which the sea tide has created. The waves were not as rough as day time but the sound of the waves crashing was not as quiet as expected yet it could bring some peacefulness to the puzzling mind of Grusha. She leaned onto the railing as the sea wind blew her messy hair out of her face making her pale complexion shine even brighter under the moonlight. The sound of sand crashing was heard and she didn't need to look to know who it is since it is obviously the person who drove this far just to come to this place that also at a time like this. Someone would have thought he is insane but Grusha didn’t since she also agreed that if she were him she would also drive any far just to feel this peacefulness.Everything was drowned in a deep darkness to the point she could not see the sea and the sky separately. Moon being the only source of the light helped them to see their surroundings to some exten
To tame the wild horse No smoke without fire
Author's POV: "Yes. Tell me about Aslanovs. I am sure that you don't need any permission for that. If you do then consider you are permitted."Luca’s curious eyes went to rear view mirror to take a look at Grusha who was already looking at him in the mirror. Her eyes held no hesitation no emotions nothing but underlying power and authority. Luca’s mind went back to when he saw the same familiar gaze in the past but in another person's eyes.'No doubts who she takes after.'Luca mumbled silently with a smirk before turning the steering wheel to take a turn."Be honest please!"Grusha voiced out in a frustrated tone not ready to listen to any lies or fairytales. But what really frustrating was that she doesn't know about her own husband and no one is telling her anything either."What do you want to know?"Luca’s voice broke out in the growing silence."What do you know?""Mmm...Where should I start?Mr. Bernadi didn't come from a well privilege family.as far as I know the late Mr. King

I’ll be there."She said before hanging up the call and handing over the phone to Luca."Sorry uncle. I have to leave now. I’ll help you with breakfast tomorrow. Promise."Gomez shook his head at Grusha who was busy undressing her apron indicating that it is alright. Grusha softly smiled at him before sprinting to the elevator to go to her room to change into something else.It’s been a while since everything became comfortable for her. More likely it's been a while since she adapted herself in this house as Damien’s wife. During that time, she got close to everyone who lived under the roof including Gomez, Luca and especially her husband, Damien. Without realization she has started doing small acts like waking up in the morning and preparing

Drops of sweat were rolling down his forehead and all of this scared the shit out of me."Damien."No response."DAMIEN!"I called once again while shaking his figure."Damien! Wake up!"This time my voice raised a little bit after not receiving any response and I began shaking him violently. I knelt beside him on the bed while tapping his cheeks and calling him again and again which eventually made Damien to snap open his eyes while breathing heavily. He swiftly sat on the bed while panting as if he has ran a mile."Everything is okay now. Breath slowly. Breath."I said while pulling his head to rest on my shoulder as my hands caressed his messy hair and his back. I felt him wrapping his hands around me tightly and we stayed like that for a few minutes until he calmed down."I am right here with you
