Anacá “I’m speechless! How did you convince Dad so easily? I had been trying for the last couple of years.” Eros drove away from his family mansion, looking flustered. “I hardly tried to convince him. All I did was offer to cook a good meal for him. My dad loved my cooking, and I miss feeding him.” I sighed at the memory. “Anyway, the place wasn’t conducive to his mental and physical well-being, Eros. There was so much toxicity, it was suffocating me.” I pondered over Acacia’s warning. Should I inform Eros about my hunch? I knew his extended family was planning something against him.“Yes, I know. That’s the reason I rarely come here. But this time, the situation was worse. So, did anyone insult you in my absence?” He glanced at me before steering the car onto the main roads. “No. Only Acacia warned me this would be the last time I could look around the mansion. She said that soon the house would belong to your uncle. I have a feeling they’re planning something against you, Eros.”

Anacá“Mmm! This is too good, Aunt Dana. I missed your meatballs so much.” I couldn’t help but close my eyes and chew, blocking out Josh’s scowling face opposite. I had agreed to stay back for Aunt Dana and Uncle Jeremy. They had done much for me, and I was indebted to them. But Josh seemed to get other ideas. I didn’t bother talking to him. So, he sat there sulking and glaring at me all the time. “Do you want to learn? You can make them for your husband. Do you know it’s a sure-shot way to win a man’s heart!” chuckled Aunt Dana. I opened my eyes, surprised to hear her joke in front of her crazy son. “Oh!” My cheeks were stained with color. Uncle Jeremy laughed too, while Josh glared daggers at me and his mom. “I’m sure she has touched his heart. Or he wouldn’t have pursued and married her!”“I don’t believe this! Are you supporting the man who has destroyed my career?” Josh rose in a fit of rage. “No, son. We’re just discussing Anacá’s husband. You have no reason to overreact,

AnacáHe looked so furious, I knew what was in store for me. Even Aunt Dana was ill at ease. “We asked her to stay back with us, Eros,” said Uncle Jeremy, glaring at Josh. However, Josh looked quite pleased with himself for causing a rift between my husband and me. I repented, having forgiven him. He didn’t deserve it. With a slight nod towards Josh’s parents, Eros gripped my arm and strode out, pulling me along. Lucy, too, followed meekly, sensing trouble. Once we were outside, he pulled me towards his car in a fit of rage. “Get in. This is unforgivable, Anacá. What the f*ck were you doing here with Josh?” “Please, stop! I can explain.” I tried to get free, but his grip on my arm felt like a steel band, refusing to loosen. “There’s nothing to explain. Why did you lie to me, Anacá? I asked you repeatedly.” He shoved me inside his car and let Lucy in before walking around to the driver’s side. “I went to visit Aunt Dana and Uncle Jeremy, not Josh. His parents have done a lot for

Anacá We tumbled into the bed together, and I watched him hover over me. His hazel eyes held my gaze, while his arms on either side of my body held me captive.“Are you sure?” He lifted an eyebrow at me, and the look he gave me was so full of heat, I ignored the anger bubbling inside him. I knew he still hadn’t believed or forgiven me. I nodded, and he watched me intently. Yes, I was his. I had already surrendered my body, mind, and soul to him. He was the only one I loved and the only one I would belong to. But now wasn’t the time to confess. He wouldn’t believe me. It was time to show him through my actions. It was time to prove my love for him. His fingers worked on the buttons of my top while his eyes held my gaze. I knew he was giving me ample space to back out. But I didn’t want to. I wanted to please him tonight. He eased the top out of me, still with his eyes on me. A hot flush crept up my body as his eyes drank me in. The way he looked at me made my body flush. I had neve

ErosRemorse shunted through me as I stood at her closed door, begging to be let in. What had I done in my jealousy? Why didn’t I believe her? She had saved her virginity for me, and I destroyed everything between us. “Anacá, please, can you open the door once? I’m sorry.” I waited, but there was no response from inside. Did she lose consciousness? Guilt ate me up. How did I let the monster in me take over? All my life, I had lived recklessly with no one to teach me a thing about relationships. I f*cked available who*es who expected nothing but a rough ride. It had become a habit only to fulfill my needs, but tonight was different. Anacá was my wife, my better half. She didn’t deserve this.I had let my jealousy control my mind and body. How did I stoop so low? I had waited for so long to make love to Anacá, to consummate our marriage. Now I had fu*ked it all up with my insensitivity. She would never forgive me for being an as*hole to her, for snatching away what she had treasured

Eros“Why do we have to give up on our dreams and business, Dad? You’ve worked hard to build it from scratch. So what if we’re adopted? Grandpa had signed it to us.” I paced the office in a fit of rage. This was an injustice, and my dad was supporting it wholeheartedly. Dad gave me a pleading look. “You still don’t get it, do you? Enriquez will kill you and Anacá. Do you want to lose your lives for the business? You have Krypton, don’t you? It’s not like you’ll be on the streets without Emerald.” I stopped and sat down beside him, ready for war. “I’ll file an FIR against him. I’ll hire bodyguards, but I refuse to give up on what’s rightfully mine. Why did you bend, Dad? You should have discussed with me before signing off the company shares to them.” He sighed and shook his head, looking at least ten years older, helpless and defeated. I had never seen my dad in this light. He was a born fighter. “I panicked, Eros. I can’t afford to lose you.” I sighed too. I could understand his

Anacá DuVernay's POV“Why are we here, Anacá?” My best friend, Jessica, looked around the jewelry store we stepped into. She had no idea what was going on in my mind. It was something I hadn’t shared with anyone yet, not even with her. “I’m buying a ring for Josh.” I browsed through the collection before us, ignoring the jaw-dropped look on Jess’s face. Josh Hemmingway was the one my dad, Charles DuVernay, had chosen for me to marry. Although I didn’t love him, I had accepted him reluctantly. With my dad’s health slipping day by day, I had no choice but to keep him happy. He was the only family I had after my mom, Ana DuVernay, passed away four years ago. I didn’t want him to suffer a third cardiac arrest, as it would surely be fatal for him.The sales attendant catered to my low budget and showed me a few options. I chose a sapphire one for Josh, not because he loved blue, but because it was the cheapest. Jess came out of her trance and grabbed hold of my hand. “Don’t do it, Anacá

AnacáIn an instant, he grabbed my hand and pulled me up while his eyes held my gaze. I drowned in his hypnotic orbs, his touch causing my heart to skip a beat. “S-sir?” Josh’s startled cry brought me out of my dazed state and I broke the eye contact. Who was Josh’s sir? I turned to see the pale look on both Josh and Jordynn’s faces, and realization dawned on me. Was this man their boss? My first reaction was to flee, but with his iron-like grip on my hand, I couldn’t even budge an inch, let alone flee. “Is this what you do in my absence? Lunchtime was over five minutes ago. Where’s the weekly report for the Calligaris Project, Mr. Hemmingway?” My cheeks burned with embarrassment, realizing my folly. What had I done? I had proposed to my cheating boyfriend’s boss in front of the entire office. At that moment, I wanted the earth to open up so I could jump in and never emerge again!“Sir, I was about to report when Anacá arrived...” His boss held up his hand to stop his banter. “I

Eros“So, that’s my resume. I’m sure you know my qualifications, Eros. I’ll come down to the office tomorrow. With my experience, I can handle any top managerial job.”I gave Vincent a withered look. “Right now, we have no vacancy. Why don’t you apply at other companies?” I had no wish to induct him into my business. I would have avoided it if Dad hadn’t been so adamant. But with dad supporting them, I had no say in the matter. Victor had been trying to convince me for the last forty minutes in my dad’s study. It made me feel suffocated. Why couldn’t he get the idea?He gave me a shocked look. “Do you expect a Nikolaou to go begging others for a job? We are one of the top business families in the country, bro. Wouldn’t it tarnish your reputation?”I shook my head. “Nope. I’m an open-minded guy. Applying for jobs isn’t begging. With your qualifications, you’re serving a company, helping a business in return for money. It’s better than bothering others for money. That’s begging.” I coul

AnacáThe door opened, and a uniformed staff greeted us. “Mr. Nikolaou is waiting for you in the great room.”Eros led me down the grand foyer towards the lavishly decorated great room. Everything about the villa was exotic and over the top. It was quite suffocating, hardly the home I’d like to live in. Thankfully, it wasn’t my home. Eros had built his own private sanctuary for us. He seemed the most sensible of the lot.His grip on my hand was so tight it hurt. Why was he crushing my hand? Maybe he was stressed. It was normal, given the circumstances he was in. Even I was stressed. I couldn’t wait for this ordeal to get over. Would I stay in Eros’s life as his wife by the end of the day?Relax, Anacá.Breathe.I must trust my husband. He promised me that no one could separate us.Voices echoed around us as we entered the lavish great room. I tried hard to remain calm at all costs. The whole family seemed to have gathered here. In fact, even Acacia was present, busy chatting up Lydia,

Anacá I watched the jaw-dropped look on his face, and a sense of satisfaction coursed through my body.“Where were you? I looked for you everywhere. I thought you had left.” The fear in his eyes was clearly visible, and it felt good to know he wanted me to stay with him.“I went to grab a bite. After the way she insulted me, I had no wish to tolerate her.” I felt a little foolish for reacting to Acacia.“Oh, the food I ordered was for you. Why didn’t you have it?”“She snatched it from me.”Eros rolled his eyes in exasperation. “Anacá, you had the right to throw her out. You’re not just my PA. You’re the owner of Emerald as well. You should know and understand your rights.”My heart filled with an overwhelming urge to hug him. Did he really consider me the owner of his business? I hadn’t expected him to. “Oh, I am?” I couldn’t stop the urge any longer. Was he for real? We hadn’t been married for even a month, and he had already declared me the owner of his business. I didn’t need a s
