Ethan POV

I cleared the table and washed the dishes as soon as I came out of Maya’s room.

After everything was done, I returned to my bedroom and dropped onto the bed with a heavy sigh. Pulling out my phone, I dialed Doctor Chris.

He answered on the first ring.

“How’d it go?” he asked immediately.

“She ate, so I’m free now,” I muttered.

“Free?” Chris repeated sharply. “Ethan, if you can’t take care of her properly, I’m coming over.”

“I don’t want to see you anywhere near my house,” I snapped. “E

  • 100 Days To Tame The Devil   Chapter 44: This Never Happened

    Maya POVMy heart couldn’t stop beating.It pounded so hard I feared it might burst right out of my chest. He pulled back just a little, staring directly into my eyes like he could see right through me. His green eyes were so beautiful and so enchanting... I was already completely lost just looking at them.I couldn't bring myself to look away.Neither of us said anything for a moment. We just stared at each other, reading each other's minds in the quiet room.His gaze dropped back to my lips before rising to meet my eyes again.Slowly, his hand reached up to gently brush away the sweat near my earlobe. His thumb traced down my jawline to my cheek, softly caressing my skin.Then he paused."I’m a madman, ain’t I?" His voice was low, sending a cold shiver straight down my spine.I swallowed hard, unable to speak."You’re perfect, Maya," he said quietly, his hot breath brushing against my face. "You don’t need someone like me. I want you to keep hating me... that’s the only way you ca

  • 100 Days To Tame The Devil   Chapter 43: No One Touches What’s Mine

    Maya POV The sound was unbearable. I kept turning and turning until I finally sprang up. My eyes darted to the door. Where was that sound coming from? I wondered what Ethan was up to now. I dragged my weak self out of bed, every muscle aching. My eyes fell on the clock, which read 10:34 PM. Wow, I really slept that long. I walked to the bathroom, splashed cold water on my face, and pulled my hair back into my usual ponytail. Opening the door, I stepped out and followed the noise as it grew louder and louder down the hall. Just down in the living room, lots and lots of people were there. Dancing, smoking... some were seen making out, and some had passed out on the couches. The whole room was a huge mess. The smell of alcohol hung in the air under the dim blue light. I could hardly recognize a single face in the room. My mind flashed back to what Ethan had mentioned this morning about a party. Did he mean this? The whole place was in disarray, but nobody was coming up

    Maya POVThe ride came to an end.I thanked Josh and went inside, but before I could reach the front door, he called out to me."Wait," he said, catching up to me quickly.He gave me a small bag, then turned and walked away. I stared down at the bag, then slowly opened it. I pulled out a phone box and gasped.A phone?! Like, for real!I turned in the direction of Josh, but he was long gone. He bought me a new phone? How did he know I didn't have one?I paused. Was it Mr. Wellington? But I never told him anything like that, and he never saw me without a phone either. Then how did Josh…Silence stretched in my head.Either way, a wave of relief washed over me. I'm really grateful to whoever got me the phone. Or maybe it was Josh himself. Yeah, I think I should thank him. Even though I saw no reason for him getting me a phone, I still smiled and went inside—but I regretted everything immediately.He stood there, anger blazing in his eyes."Where were you?" His voice was ice-cold as

  • 100 Days To Tame The Devil   Chapter 41: The Pen That Knows

    Mr. Wellington's POV I kept staring into space, into nothingness. If only there was something like black magic I could use on Ethan. He's so adamant. Tony wasn't this stubborn brat. Tony was soft. He was kind. Inside and out. He was generous. He was strong and efficient. He was the perfect heir to the Wellington empire. He was my everything. I had shaped him. I had raised him well. But death just decided to take him away like that. I sighed heavily. I wheeled myself toward a small wardrobe that stood just a few inches tall. I opened the last drawer, then reached beneath the bottom panel from inside the wardrobe. My fingers found the tiny hidden button. I pressed it. A small key slid out. I picked it up and unlocked the first drawer. It opened. I took out the black pen and stared at it, hesitating. Then I pressed the button at the bottom. A crackling sound filled the room. *"All you could've done was step down, but you just kept pushing,"* his voice echoed. *"

    Maya POVJust like he said, I had a million questions running through my mind, but I chose to remain silent."Have a seat, Maya," Mr. Wellington said as Josh gestured toward the couch opposite him.I sat down carefully, sinking into the soft cushion beneath me.He wheeled himself closer, then cleared his throat.Josh remained standing beside me, his expression unreadable.The atmosphere was suffocating."So, Maya..." Mr. Wellington began. "I know this might sound desperate, but I need your help."I blinked."My help?""Yes." He nodded. "The way you reacted at the hospital during Ethan's accident told me everything. You protected him. You fought for him. You even challenged me."A faint smile tugged at the corner of his lips."I liked that."I shifted uneasily but kept my composure."I want you to help Ethan return to his rightful position, and I need it done as soon as possible. I don't know if your relationship with my grandson has blossomed simply because he's still allowing you sta

    Day 8Maya POVI stirred in my sleep before letting out a loud yawn as I sat up in bed.My eyes were still heavy with sleep. I blinked several times, glancing around the room until the world finally came into focus.Then my mind drifted back to yesterday.My hands flew to my mouth as warmth spread through my body. My stomach fluttered with excitement as I remembered how Ethan had carried me back here.He had personally helped me into bed.He had cleaned my feet, applied ointment to my injuries, and even slipped these adorable socks onto them.My gaze dropped to the soft socks covering my feet.They were warm... comforting.Even the clothes I was wearing were thick and cozy.I don't know what I'm feeling...But maybe Ethan isn't as bad as I thought.Maybe he's a blessing disguised as the devil.It's only been eight days since this marriage began, yet somehow... I've started enjoying being around him.What am I even thinking?I sighed and climbed out of bed.I don't have time to think a

    Maya POVI stood in front of the full-length mirror as a team of stylists pinned jewels into my hair and tightened the corset of my gown. The silk was heavy, and the diamonds were blinding.My reflection stared back at me, expressionless.The only image in my mind was Andre lying on that hospital b

    Maya POV“Marriage?” I asked, just to be sure as the word tasted like lead in my mouth.“It’s quite simple, Ms. Rivers. Marry him, stay for one hundred days, and $10 million is yours,” the old man said, his voice as calm as if he were discussing the weather.I stared at this old man in front of me.
