Irene's POV:No you don’t talk to your employees like that. You cannot pick them up just at one call. Without asking anything. Normal people don’t do that. Let alone the people who are notoriously famous with non serious titles. A playboy? Are you kidding me? The man who called me baby, without any rational reason for him to do that. But the worst is that, it felt so needed. The man was cooking me lunch, forcing me no to move any muscle as he was so convinced that the pressure I bore due to my own inferiority complex would have exhausted my nerves. The man looked nothing like the ones who play with your feelings and your body. He looked like someone I never met. But I always dreamt of meeting. Just like every girl dreams, when she reads those descriptions of the fictional men in the novels. He looked like those unbelievably dreamy men, when they are in love.“Here is your risotto, Ma’am,” his voice broke my thoughts. His sleeves were rolled up. Olive coloured, dress shirt was now cre

Kian’s POV:“Yes, this one. This one is alright.” “I’ll complete this. Add some reverb and stuff.” “That’ll be good.” “I’ll go now, sir.” With that he walked out from the office. My head hung in exhaustion. My back was aching. Well, actually every muscle of mine was in pain. My first release for the album was finally ready. From now on, everything was needed to be hurried. This meant , no rest. And it went exactly like that. I would spend all day at my studio. And arrive home late at night. Sometimes, I would just sleep in my office. On a few lucky days, I would arrive before her bed time and I would be blessed with her hugs, smile, shy kisses, and little bickering. That dopamine release would give me energy to work. Beautiful isn’t it?She would ask me how my day was? And I would just smile. She would never ask again. Then she would tell me all the unnecessary details about her day. And I would just smile, again. She wouldn’t demand more.My first release got so much attention.

Irene’s POV:I ran from the kitchen counter, at the sound of a horn. I heard Noah’s voice telling me to be careful, as I was in heels. It was uncomfortable as always. But anything for this fake husband of mine. I smiled at the imagination, how his eyes would wander on me before he would voice out. I paced when I was near the door. I opened the door, finding him in front of me. I couldn’t control my inner happiness that appeared on my face. My eyes fell on his hand. They were empty. No flowers? I smiled even more. I decided not to mind it at all. It was enough for me that he was here. I didn’t wanna waste time, by nagging about stupid flowers. Not when he was going to fly to Chicago tomorrow. And I wasn’t going to see him for the whole month. I wanted to avail this time, to finally spill the tea. To say unsaid but felt things. I held his hand and dragged him in. Lilac coloured satin dress twirled around my waist. It was off shoulder. The delicate necklace made of rhinestone looked so

Kian’s POV:I was very young, when I got gifted with the fear of getting hurt. To have abstract loss, or a physical loss that causes abstract grief. Years passed by and I realised I wasn't afraid of getting hurt, I was afraid of the feeling that I get from it. Being vulnerable. Vulnerable in front of anyone. Regardless of who the person is. It came with thousands of thoughts. I was very young when my parents diet. I was vulnerable at that time. And I knew that. Grandma gave me everything she had, but she couldn't fill up the spaces that were left. I never opened up in front of her about how I truly feel.When I left the town, for music. I had nothing. Nothing at all. One thing I promised myself at that time was that I will never bow to anyone. I met Raven and Quinn. They both were as eager to dive into the industry as I was, but the difference was I kept no option to go back. Mona was a teenager when she first saw me at a coffee shop. She was always like this. Reaching out to what

Kian's POV:“That's perfect. Can we have a little smile now?”I didn't care how I looked at the awkward stretch of my lips, even though my eyes remained cold.“Perfect!” I heard the photographer exclaiming. Quickly the staff came to help me take off the jewellery and other accessories.“Your next shot is for Bulgari, we can head out in ten minutes, if you want.” I heard from my assistant.“Tell them to postpone or cancel it.” She pressed her lips at my statement.“But sir-.”“I am tired.” I cut her off and walked away as I wore my shirt.It wasn't a lie. Although it seemed like it. This was my first photo shoot of the day. And I aced it in thirty minutes. Keeping in mind my history, I used to work for sixteen hours. But I was tired now. I had gotten accustomed to being relaxed for a while. Having a relaxing centre. I needed that feeling again, being light headed. I was exhausted even though I wasn't doing that much. I wanted her.

Irene's POV:I never had that many friends. I never had friends, to be honest. I just had people who would be in my life and walk away at their own time. I was an introvert for sure. But I was a bit self indulged too. It was true no one really cared for me, except Stacy (but she was young), But I never cared for anyone either. And that's not okay, no matter at which level you are. I cared for him. Truly. I worried for him, when I saw those false allegations. People were talking about him being cancelled. My heart skipped every time he was considered finished. And this was something new to me of course. That had never happened before. Something besides my studies or financial matters occupied my mind. I wished for something other than grades and a better job. I wanted him to be happy. To be proud of his position as he always was.His album was getting famous. He was back. People were talking about him again. He was being praised. I saw everything. Heard every news about him. Every wor

Kian’s POV:The airport was all packed, the air electric with anticipation. Their excitement was palpable, as my fans waited for me. Although I came unannounced, still the waving of banners and roar of the crowd was powerful.Little did they know, it was the least of my worries. I adjusted the collar of my shirt in front o f the mirror as I heard the muffled cheering of the crowd through the thick walls of a specially vacated room at the airport just for me to dress up when I reached London on my private jet. Raven insisted that I should have a dressing up session before appearing, as the media was also there.“It’s clear,” Raven announced. With a nod, I turned and walked out of the room. The noise of the crowd intensified as I took more steps. When I was finally out, the roar of the crowd hit me like a wave. Flashing lights and a sea of faces stretched in front of me. But my eyes yearned for her. I waved my hands in acknowledgment of their efforts. Reporters asked questions of all

Irene's POV:I woke up wrapped in Kian’s arms, feeling the warmth of his body radiating against mine. His steady breaths brushed gently against the back of my neck, a reminder of the intimacy we shared the previous night. I kept my eyes closed, relishing the moment, but my mind couldn’t help but drift into a whirlpool of self-conscious thoughts.How did I end up here, in the embrace of such a handsome man? The question lingered, gnawing at my insecurities. I felt like a puzzle piece that didn’t quite fit, an imposter in this serene environment. As much as I tried to quell the unease, it surged within me, threatening to overshadow the happiness that should have been dominant.I turned slightly, just enough to catch a glimpse of his face. Even in sleep, Kian looked perfect. His chiselled features were softened by slumber, a faint smile playing on his lips as if he were dreaming of something pleasant. It was not okay for me to think this way. The warmth he caused in my heart was more tha

Kian’s POV:As I took out my phone, it was already ten. It was my time to leave. I grabbed my car keys from the table, causing the heads of two of my best friends snapped in my direction. “Already?” Quinn arched his brows.“Uhh, don’t wanna sleep on the couch. She gets really grumpy when I am late.” I said hanging my jacket on my arm.“No matter how much I try It’s really too much for me to get used to this ideal husband's behaviour.” I chuckled at Raven’s comment. “Are you really this scared of her, I mean she doesn’t looked like she would ever look horrible enough to scare the sh*t out of you.” I could see the honesty in his eyes.The truth she never looked horrible, she looked a bit scared herself. Whenever she would shout at me, I sensed the uncertainity in her eyes. Wanting to know if it did affect me. I wanted to give her the assurety that her offence did matter to me. That she wasn’t just some random girl. I took her as my….. Wife. because to me there was nothing left to che

Irene’s POV:I watched at my outfit for hundredth time. Checking all the criterias that I had build in my mind considering it’s a not so personal dinner. I was here as his wife. Sara, Raven’s girlfriend looked friendly and bubbly. Which I didn’t see in many of Kian’s acquaintances. She was a redhead. Beautifully slaying the maroon coloured outfit. Her features were very prominent. She looked confident. Well, it was understandable since she was handling real estate business all herself. That wasn’t inherited but built by herslef. Okay, that was impressive. The table was set with all the delicious meals. I was sitting on the chair, revising all the table manners I had once learned. “My chief’s special soup,” she said as put the bowl of soup on front of me. I smiled as I dived into it.“That’s amazing” I praised genuinely. She gave me a cheeky girin. She was outgoing, that eased my anxiety a lot. I was wearing a beige coloured not so short dress. I skipped necklace and just wore silver
