That was one of those horrible winter days in the city of Manhattan. It was too late by the time Sania had finished the extra class on Art and Design. She is a fashion designing student from New York University. Finishing up with her college, she took the bus to south Manhattan and went straight to the Greenwich hospital. "Hello I'm here on an appointment with Dr. Jones." Sania drummed her fingers with anxiety at the reception desk. "Just a minute mam..." The middle aged lady looked at her computer and nodded to her with a smile. "Go straight and turn into the last room." "Hello Sania, how are you? Please have a seat. I thought you would not come today." The doctor checked the time on her wrist watch and spoke to her. "I'm sorry ma'am. I had an unexpected extra class today. Thus I was late." Her hands shivered as she pulled the chair and sat across the doctor. "It's alright." The doctor took out a document from one of the drawers and pushed it towards her. Sania blinked rigoro
Chapter 1 Sania was at the dining table for breakfast along with her younger sister Lana. Lana nudges her elbow and signals to her the disappointed face of their father. Sania raises her eyebrows and asks Lana the reason and just then their mother places the pancakes along with strawberry syrup on the table with a cold face. Lana shrugs, unable to understand the reason behind the irk of their parents. "Sania, Rickey called this morning and informed your mother that you are selected at the NYU on scholarship program to do the fashion designing course at Manhattan. Why would you go all the way to Manhattan when you can study the course in the same university here in New York?" Sania gulps a curse for Rickey. The scoundrel is an expert hacker. No matter how many times she changes the password of her email address, he manages to extract it. Sania knew one day she had to tell her parents the truth but she would have time to convince them as the college was opening after two months. Rick
"Anytime I see talks on women empowerment in our families, education of girls, helping them progress, finding them jobs, scholarships, I hear music playing in my head. It increases my heartbeat, causing tension in my arteries. It increases my cortisol levels, testosterone decreases. The left hemisphere in my brain is stimulated." Rickey said going hysterical while pulling the hairs on his head. Sania was frightened seeing his changing personality. She took several steps back from him. It wasn't usual for Rickey to behave in such a way. She had been seeing him since his diaper days and found his body language suspicious. "Rickey you are behaving like an imbecile. What are you doing at this hour in my house, Rickey? Go, get ready. Don't you have school to attend?" She scolded him in response to an older sister mustering her last drop of courage. "When a beautiful rose like you is alone in the house, how can I go and attend the boring lecture of that English teacher? I had been attract
Sania picked up the unexpected call at the odd hour of midnight. She wondered what her parents wanted to speak to her at past 12. Sania picked up the call cheerfully with a smile but the next second what she heard made her fingers tremble and her heart skip a beat. Sania's mother Margaret who was always a brave woman started sobbing on the phone. Her father suffered a stroke and urgently required two stunts near his heart to save his life. The Collins family couldn't afford the cost. Failing to get the surgery done within a month Sania will be losing her father. It was news indigestible for Sania. But she was the older child and had the responsibility to be the backbone of her family. She gulped the obstruction forming in her throat and spoke positively to her mother. "Mama do not worry. Just take care of dad and I will arrange the funds for daddy's treatment." "How would you do that? You are still a student?" Her mother asks but there was a ray of hope in Margaret's speech. She ha
Abraham Walkhart was the only heir and son of the Walkhart group of Industries. He was handsome, charismatic but a womanizer with no morals. He treated females as his play toys and used his charisma to lure and exploit them. Girls and parties have been his favorite since he was eighteen. Mr and Mrs Walkhart tried counseling their son many times but it often felt like - a person often meets his destiny on the road he took to avoid it. Abraham continued to walk in the incorrect way and slowly became yellowbelly for his parents. ***** Abraham had recently completed his post graduation in Business Administration from Princeton University and came back to Manhattan where his parents stayed to enjoy his last days of freedom before he took over his family business. "Good morning!" Abraham receives the call of one of his friends at eleven in the morning when he was still in his bed from yesterday night's knockout by a super chic. He holds his head and grunts from the effect of alcohol co
Abraham had the charm that could steal every girl's heart with just a glance. He least cared about his father's anger, on the contrary, orders Graham as soon as he occupies a seat behind the high priced oak wood desk. "Dad, I need to talk to you." The intonation in his speech was savage. Graham grits his teeth and asks his son, already irritated. "What do you want? Is it not enough for the menace you already created in my room?" "Dad, I need a separate house. I'm not a little boy who needs to live with his parents. The maids in your home do not even wait after the knock for me to say 'come in' and you know what's the heck of it? Mom supports them. For God's sake I need some privacy." Abraham shrieks, running his hands in his perfectly combed hair with frustration. Graham continues to sign on the documents inside the file as if he was listening to a radio and tells Abraham nonchalantly. "Son, whatever I have in my life are the efforts of my sweat and blood. I'm not the person bor
Two hours later Sania came out of her unconsciousness. She did not die but due to the effects of alcohol and cigarettes Abraham's friend mistook her as dead. Sania was feeling drained by the time she came out of hospital. Waiting for the bus at the bus stop for more than an hour added to her fatigue. When the rogues attacked her, she pleaded with them for mercy in her vulnerable state but they were the beasts who were heartless with no trace of humanity. As a result when they started charging upon her she was already on her way to dropping consciousness. After regaining consciousness, she looked around and took note of her devastated state. She was naked and covered with mud. There were red scratches and nail marks everywhere on her body and she was bleeding with soreness in her center. Covering her face with her palms Sania yowled like a lost soul for losing her virginity but there was not a human to listen to her agony. She doesn't know how long Sania collected her clothes that
Sania was shivering in her insides from the threatening aura of the reputed personage sitting across the oak wood work desk before her. The long floor to ceiling window, the eco-friendly indoor plants in porcelain vases, the elegant and extremely comfortable sofa set beside her, everything around her screamed power and money which was melting her resolution to fight for her rights. But was she there to accept her defeat so easily? No matter what be the end result Sania decides to put up a tough fight against the Walkharts. She took deep breaths and recalled the influential words of her mysterious Archangel who boosted her morale an hour ago. Slowly the magic of diminishing fear processed inside her. At once she opened her eyes at Graham Walkhart like a virago with spitting fire. She pressed the hang-up button and disconnected the call. "Please be patient Mr Walkhart. Do you think I would come all the way here without proof?" Sania's voice was too sweet for the diabetic patient s
Chapter 108 Ace points to the couch sitting opposite their bed. "That is small for both of us to sleep." Scarlet voices her concern. "Darling, if we need to sleep beside one another, we do not need a couch. We can as well sleep on the bed. A couch is to sleep one above the other." A naughty smile was playing on his lips. Scarlet places Vance in his little bassinet and walks to the couch. Ace sleeps sideways behind Scarlet. Covering them in a blanket, he places his hand around her chest squeezing and fondling her breasts. He slightly pulls her pants down and enters from behind her. "Angel might wake up." Scarlet cautions Ace. "There is no way she would wake up. She is sound asleep and even if she wakes up, she wouldn't know what we are doing. We are covered in a blanket." Ace whispers in Scarlet's ears and continues to pound inside her. Slowly the passion builds up in Scarlet. She closes her eyes in ecstasy and an involuntary soft moan releases out of her instigating Ace to touch
Chapter 107Ace feared she would land back to convulsions perceiving her red face and droplets of sweat settling on her forehead. "Darling everything is okay. You are fine. The man left the world long ago." He spoke hastily fearing Scarlet's health.Fortunately, there were no convulsions but Scarlet wasn't going through the best phase either. She stomped to unconsciousness instantly.As the doctor hinted at him in their previous consultation, Ace was prepared for everything. He carried her imperturbably to their bedroom.Little Angel walked behind. "Daddy, what happened to mommy? Why does she often faint?" She asks with her eyes watering. "Did I hurt mamma, that she sleeps frequently?" Her voice was now breaking into a cry.Ace brought out a syringe from the closet, injected medicine into it, and administered it to Scarlet. Though he wasn't associated with the medical field, Ace took a short-term medical course to help the health of his wife. Scarlet was his life, his happiness, and h
Chapter 106"Merry Christmas" Ace greets Scarlet the next day as soon as she wakes up with a tray filled with breakfast of bacon, toast, and pineapple juice along with fruit pie as a dessert."Merry Christmas to you too." Scarlet greets Ace pecking his lips. But Ace had a different intention. The kiss intensified giving rise to a heated smooch and the romantic couple landed on another round of early morning sex until they heard a knock at the door.Little Angel walked in rubbing her eyes still not getting rid of sleep. "Daddy Dora did not get the flower from the fairy." She twisted her lips. Ace chuckles and brings her into his lap kissing her cheek."It is only a dream princess. Dora will get the flower from the princess."For the next two hours, Angel kept fussing for Dora with a flower. Ace had to search half of the kid stores in Pennsylvania to get his daughter, Dora, with a flower from the fairy. Ultimately it became a Christmas gift for her.Daniel was always the older disciplin
Chapter 105"Since I was brought up in a convent from my childhood I couldn't get to do certain things which many normal teenage girls would do at that age. So...." Scarlet stopped, calculating the features of Ace and if she could speak further."So?" Ace raised a single brow. He did not know where this conversation was going but he surely suspected something fishy.Scarlet bit the inside of her cheek suddenly going shy and not able to meet her husband's eyes. "So, I want to get drunk, smoke, dance freely with a man, and end up with him on the bed."Ace left an uncomfortable chuckle, shook his head, unable to believe his ears. He did not understand how to react to his wife's insane request. "You have gone crazy, Scarlet." He exclaimed. "It is not abou

Chapter 102"Get out of my house." Scarlet turned a deaf ear and yelled showing the exit to him.Ace walked away without a head turn. She was not in a position to listen to him and her dad was in her favor. He felt a further conversation was useless.When he slept around becoming a womanizer nothing affected him in this world. Today when he is a responsible and changed man, his past actions have started hunting him like an irrevocable sin.He could understand Scarlet. From her point of view no woman would like to have a life of insecurity. She doesn't know how many kids she has to accept as her family in future because of her husband's once upon a time infidelity.
Chapter 102Ace reached Vangchew's mansion with a lot of positivity. The smile on his brims doesn't seem to stop. Somebody might call him a mad man. But he doesn't mind. He would be taking back his wife shortly to his home. At the moment probably he would be the happiest man in the world.As soon as he rang the bell, a maid opened the door. Scarlet was upstairs in her bedroom and came out to the long corridor connecting both the staircases that were on either side of the enormous mansion."Who is it, Charla?" Her soft voice felt like a melody to his ears. It was after a very long time he was hearing her. In walked Ace with the everlasting grin but the moment he raised up his head and looked at Scarlet, the happiness in his eyes and the smile on his face, both were lost
Chapter 101In another part of the cityBrianna pulled the dining chair behind and sat on it. She forked the noodles and started to eat them after putting in some sauce. "What is the exciting news you wanted to share with me Sherlock?"The brightness in his eyes was greater than the light of the sun. "The love birds broke up! One of our sources says Ace has an illegal physical connection with the NIA Investigation officer Cara Knights and as a result of the relationship they have a son. Scarlet came to know about it and she separated from her husband. Prince Vangchew is getting the matter investigated. If the news is true, then we need not make any effort to kill Ace. Vangchew will do the work for us.""Wow" a jubil
