LIAM'S P.O.V:
Today was the most frustrating day ever.... Owing most of the companies, hotels and investments all over the world is the most frustrating and tired of all the other jobs.
Perks of being a CEO.
Even though being a CEO with handful of work I can't forget her voice and I wanted to hear that voice again and again. I want to hear her speak and sing for me.
Wait what!?
For me?!
I must have gone insane .
Seriously!
Liam you really need to clear your mind.
But she kept popping in my mind. I even went to the park where I saw her for the first time hoping that she would come and sing and soothe my mind with her fucking beautiful voice of hers. I didn't even get to see her face.
Such a unlucky person aren't I?
God damn! Man just stop thinking about her and focus on your job! My sub-conscious reminded me.
After all the works done I went to my one and only best friend's shopping complex so that we can discuss the business matters with him. I was beyond tired to go there but , I have to go.
Roaming with the thoughts I reached there. I saw a event was going on which was eventually conducted to attract audiences around the city. I'm sure it was pretty hit because people were happily participating in the random stuff. I know my best friend none less to me. He has been my best friend since childhood and he is the only one person who handles all my mood swings and obviously knows me very well.
"Hey man!" My friend Aiden Pearce came towards me and engulfed me in his famous tight bear hug. You will never know his hugs are best but I never mentioned to him in all these years because that will boost his ego.
"God damn man! You never grow up right. Still being the old and child Aiden." I teased him.
"Shut up you bastard, You don't even think about me. All you do your work, just like a robot and go home again repeat the same thing. Live a little brother." He whined like a kid.
Typical Aiden.
"Whatever!" I sighed.
I know he will came up with that damn question. He is going to be the death of me one day. He guesses my mind so easily. I've said that I've met this girl with a beautiful voice and asked him not to take this topic again. But Aiden being him,
"So found that lucky girl who stole your heart!" He winked and asked smirking at me.
"I came here for business Aiden, not for the unnecessary stuff!" I rubbed my face frustratingly. I was not frustrated because of Aiden but because not be able to hear her voice. I never saw her after the day at park. I intrigued me so much. I wanted to ask William so I can see her, but I refrained myself doing that. I'll probably look like a stalker.
"Come on man live a little just give a try. We can find her, if you accept." He said softly seeing my frustrated expression.
"Shut up Aiden. I'm not interested in girls. Not after what happened. I'm not gonna do that same mistake again."
"I know what you are thinking, but not everyone is in need for sex. Just think about it." He said softly hoping I would agree with him.
In my heart I wanted to give myself a chance again, but I was afraid to trust people. My mind overtakes me that shut downs my heart. So I chose my mind, ignoring people and rude to them, even though they are good one.
"I know! Still I need to move on from that awful memories she gave." I mumbled quietly.
"Soon you will man." Aiden smiled at me.
I smiled.
That moment what everything stops.....
I'm hearing her voive again, god damn she is singing that too CLOSER. Aiden's eyes widened in shock as he sensed it though he haven't heard her voice. We both sprint towards the stage where the event is held.
What the hell with the crowd?
I'm hearing her voice again after a week. I can't miss her again after those long wait at the park like last time. I need to find her. the urge made me to run fast as possible.
Her voice as much as calming me I wanted to see her and am so much excited to hear her again. No I'm taking a chance to miss her right now! I pushed past everyone and rushed towards her.
I saw her wavy long black hair in a braid. Why I always miss to see her face?
I need to hurry fast and see her.
As I was still far from her she finished her song all I could hear was loud applause and whistles and cheering for her. I saw her getting off the stage but I couldn't get to see her face.
Aiden and me pushed past everyone and tried our best to reach her.
But everything ended in vain.
I missed her again.
I must be really insane.
Me LIAM KNIGHT the most arrogant, ruthless and cold-hearted billionaire searching for a girl just for her voice. I'm really fucked up right now.
I was beyond pissed.
Fuck! I cursed at myself missing her after these long days of waiting.
Aiden snapped me out of my thoughts.
"We can still find her with the CCTV footage here." He said with a smile.
"No no need I don't need that."
"Okay!" That's all he said.
I'm not in the mood for any shit and I'm pretty pissed off right now .
With that I bid good bye to Aiden who has a worried expression in his face.
I gave him a weak smile and left there.
With the thoughts of her singing in the stage her figure that is imprinted in my mind.
I just need some divertion.
I reached my penthouse and drifted off to sleep with her occupying my mind.
ATHENA'S P.O.V: Tears filled my eyes and my vision blurred. I begged him to stop but eventually he didn't. I just looked up in pain and cried out loud. Crying, that's what I can do till now for all these abuses. My step-father was the one hurting me to the hell and of course my own mother just stares at me in a pitying. I just hate that. I cried because the people whom I thought they love me are hurting me. I can't do anything but cry. I cried trying to get off the strong hold around my neck. I begged. "I'm sorry!" My weak voice croaked. "How dare you ruin my meeting with that fucking mouth of yours!" He s
LIAM'S P.O.V: I was pissed was an understatement. How the fuck they make me wait here for about 20 minutes. What the heck they are doing.!? Fuck the meeting. Fuck the deal. Of course I read the agreement but the profit percentage was low . How even I agreed to this company? With that abruptly I left the meeting and while I was about reach the elevator someone bumped into me. I was already enraged but when I look up to whom I bumped.... I saw her most beautiful black orbs containing so much of emotions, secrets...probably fear of something. Her eyes have the deepest black
ATHENA'S P.O.V: I'm tired and tired of everything the only thing that holds me is her. I wanted justice for her. But nothing gonna happen with my own misery. After suffering for 3 years I'm still a mess. Everything seems to be difficult for me. Each and every minute of life was a curse for me because of what I caused to happen. Only because of me she lost it. I blamed myself for this shit! While I was thinking deeply Avery's voice boomed into my ears. "Yo girl , I know you had a bad day. What can I do to make my Shortcake to cheer up!" She wiggled her eyebrows playfully. She tapped thoughtfully on her chin. I know she would come up with an idea that I would never agree. Suddenly her face lit up.
LIAM'S P.O.V: All I did was thinking about her. Something about her intrigued me. I don't know whether is it attraction or whatever I don't care. Her gaze held so much that I couldn't understand. That too when that bastard rudely behaved towards her. Whatever am gonna do is going to be the craziest. She has the same figure of the unknown girl. Maybe she is her. If she is her I'm not gonna leave her and definitely I will make her mine. I've gone crazy just by not hearing her voice. I decided myself that I should give a second chance myself . I just wanted to clear my mind. Interrupting my thoughts there was a knock on
ATHENA'S P.O.V: "Athena just kill me, I can't bear the pain anymore please!" She pleaded with the teary eyes. Her face is bruised with some cuts with blood flowing away. While I stood there doing nothing . Crying and begging those cruel people was my only way to stop, but they didn't even acknowledge me. She was lying there like a living corpse body full of bruises and cuts along with blood oozing out of them. I begged them. "Please leave us we'll never ever do anything like this. Leave her she had enough!" I was begging , crying and pleading. But everything went in vain. A harsh slap was planted across my cheek and I was pushed
LIAM'S P.O.V: After a long time I had a dreamless sleep because of her. I have decided to make her mine. I know I was the guy who never give shit about girls or anyone unless it makes sense to me. I was selfish and I was drowning in my own world after her. Of course because of my money, girls throw themselves at me. I don't even acknowledge them. I never even acknowledge any girl. My trust was broken after so much of pain I have gone through. I became cold and distant from everyone. I worked hard and hard till I became as a CEO. I drowned myself in work and made myself busier so that I can't think about her. But everything about the past changed by Athena.
ATHENA'S P.O.V: Today is my first day as a P.A for Mr. Knight. I was so nervous for working in a big company like Knight industries. I took a cab as I reached the office. Glancing at my watch I was before 10 minutes earlier to my work. Yesterday, he explained a lot about his company and even took me around the office and introduced me to the officials that I needed to know. All I heard about him was a arrogant jerk to his all employees, but he is nothing like that or maybe I was wrong. All I have to tag along and smile. As I reached the elevator and pressed the button to the top most floor. In between a brunette boy with green eyes entered the elevator. "Hey, you new here!" The brunette guy smiled.
LIAM'S P.O.V: Athena - One word mystery When I told Jeremy to gather information about her all I got is nothing. After searching for 2 days he got nothing even about the college or school she studied. Not even her parents name. How could that be possible?. I know nothing about her as only her nameAthena Callus. Who are you Athena? She is a mystery until now. She smiles but everything is a forced one that doesn't reach her eyes. She constantly worries about something. Awkward or uncomfortable around men. Socially introvert person. That's all I know from her behavior. Also, her only friend Avery that too I met her only once. Maybe I can ask her about Athena... But the q
LIAM KNIGHT'S P.O.V: After ten years, "Noah, you need to look after the kids!" Lucas ordered Noah. "Why me always? Ask Alex and Adam to look after them." Noah whined with a cute pout. Aiden chuckled beside him making Noah turn his adorable pout at him. "You are the big kid, Noah. You need to look after along with Alex and Adam, of course." I ruffled his hair. I paused and continued, "I know you will do it because you love them." Lucas smiled at me as Noah nodded and ran away to play with them. As planned, we all were living nearby inside the same compound. Lucas's villa was beside mine and next to it Aiden's was there. Most of the time, we spend our time in each other houses. We all have family dinner together daily with the cute bickering and bantering. It has been years after Noah was born. We also opened an NGO for rape victims and people who are suffering from depression and ot
LIAM KNIGHT'S P.O.V: After a few weeks, Athena's bump was starting to show more visibly. She was in her fifth month of pregnancy and I have been taking her to regular checkups as well Emily too. She was starting to get back pains and she vomits a bit. I was worried about and mom said it was normal during this time. I have seen not seen Emily like this so I was glad she didn't endure this, but Athena was enduring this and it makes me worry about her. Every day I was longing to stay with her. I don't want Aiden to bear all the work pent upon him because of Lucas and me. Aiden said not to worry and take care of them. Rosaline has been helping him with the kinds of stuff in the office as they both manage the company very well. Athena said that the baby will start hearing in the fifth month. Even though she said, I have been talking to them without getting tired. I would place my head on her belly as I would figure out their h
LIAM KNIGHT'S P.O.V: The past three years have been a beautiful and also disastrous ride. Athena came into my life like a breeze who changed my life happier one and a beautiful one. Life gave us chances to rectify our mistakes and of course, if we change them then it's for our good. Now I need to take care of her more and carefully. She is my ray of sunshine just like me in hers. Love does wonderful things in our life. It makes us learn to trust and make each other happy adjust with them know their needs and comfort, be with each other through tough times. If we want to see the colors of life, love someone. It did prove, she colored my life to millions of colors. You all be wondering what happened to Preston, because, we tortured and killed him. I know I'm not the one to punish, but what he did to every girl needs to be punished and the men who were involved in every rape were taken care of and I don't want any girl to be raped a
ATHENA'S P.O.V:I could see the happiness in Liam's eyes flowing out and his happy aura. It was sudden for all of us when I found out that I was pregnant, I was in seventh heaven. I couldn't explain how much I'm happy. I didn't even notice the changes in my body, while Liam noticed everything. I looked at Liam who smiled and drove happily. I couldn't get anymore happier. When he said it was the best day of his life, I lost it. I want to kiss the hell out of him out of all happiness and love.We reached home in no time, when I get out, Liam carried me in bridal style as I let out a squeal."What are you doing? I have two legs, remember!" I teased him, but he chuckled and shook his head."I wanted to carry you, besides you have two babies inside you, I have to take care fo you." He stated as he placed me on the bed gently. He bit his lips from smiling ear to ear badly. I wanted to laugh at him as he was so controlling hi
LIAM KNIGHT'S P.O.V:After two years,I was finally awaiting to attend Athena's graduation ceremony. I was the chief guest at the function as I have to hand over the certificates to the students because I donated for the welfare of this college for years. Athena doesn't know about this and I wanted it to be a surprise for her. In these past two years, our love has come over a lot of obstacles as we were busy with our schedule and things and we still managed to get hold of each other throughout the day. She was there for me and I was there for her. I would just sneak to her college dorms and stay the rest of the night with her and talk with her, share with her, and tell her how much I missed her daily not having her in the office beside me. I know that she has dreams to pursue and I oblige it but her without near me drives me insane a
ATHENA'S P.O.V: We didn't stop after having shower sex, we made love three times in the shower unable to stop our hormones and the urge for us. After tiring sex, we went to sleep for the day. Liam and I couldn't keep our hands away. He would tease me in between with his lips trailing over my hot skin which burns more with the touch of his lips. The way Liam ran over his knuckles on the valley of my breasts teasing more as my body would ache for his touch. He made to feel when no one made feel me like this. He bought something new character in me and I love it. His hot breath danced over my ears while he rasped dirty words in my ear making my core clench around him more. The hickeys gave me marked me I was his and I was off-limits. He will kiss me senselessly making my mind forget everything. We missed each other coping for the past few days. I wanted to spend more time alone with Liam. For the few days in the hospital, we were surrounded by eit
ATHENA'S P.O.V: "He is in a critical condition we will try our best to save him!" I felt the breath leave my lungs and my whole world came crashing down. I took a peek at him lying there lifeless. My breathing stopped at the sight of him. After three hours of trying they are saying me that he is struggling for his life. "What the fuck are you telling me?" I shouted at the doctor. "He is not responding!" He replied averting his eyes. "What do you mean not responding!" I barged into the operation room which made all the nurses and doctors step away from him. "We couldn't save him." They said and everything stopped. I saw Liam sleeping in deep slumber. He can't leave me. No. He can't do this to me. I won't allow him to leave me. I will never let him do this thing to me. I won't and I can't. Either he is fighting for us or I will go with him. I stepped closer to his lifeless b
LIAM'S P.O.V:She was here lying beside me last night, but in the morning she went to see Avery. I was mad and at the same time, I want to ensure that she is safe. After Avery betrayed her Athena was broken and I know she was feeling and carrying it in her heart and showed me through her tears. She has gone through so much no one can ever imagine. The mystery girl I have met a few months before changed my life upside down within these few months. I know that pain in her heart and I felt it and still, I can feel it. Call it telepathy, but to me it is love. We became one soul like we can feel each other's pain in us.In the morning, I was shocked and I thought for a second what if she was in danger and without thinking twice I ran to the cafe she mentioned in the note, but much to my disappointment both of them were not there. I ran and searched her everywhere. This may be Avery's cheap tricks to get her. Athena is still a naive girl she would beli
ATHENA'S P.O.V: I slightly pushed off Liam's head which is lying on my chest without waking him up. Today I'm going to meet Avery and this will be my last chance to try for her. I know she tried to kill Liam, but she would never do it because she did it to threaten me. And also I don't want any of them getting hurt because of me and her. I'm going to go alone to meet her. I placed Liam's head on the pillow as he snuggled into it like a kid as I quickly got ready and left a note for Liam that I'm going to meet Avery at the cafe which she mentioned in the text. I know that Liam would be mad at me, but I will convince him once I reach home. Aiden, Emily, and Lucas too would never like this idea of me meeting her. I told the bodyguards that Liam hired not to follow me, but they insisted to follow me so I sneaked out my way without knowing them. I have an unsettled f
