It was her first day at work today and she was eager to start the internship. She was excited and was hoping she got Arthur Fabian as her mentor.

As soon as she entered the building she made her way to the receptionist"Hi, Good Morning, I'm Anastasia Kimberly, I have a meeting with Ms. Claire Dubois."The receptionist just nodded as if she was bored"10th floor to the right, her name will be mentioned on her cabin door, the elevator is on the left of this corridor," she said pointing in the direction. Anastasia just thanked her and went in the direction. 'Well, I just hope not everyone is as irritable as the receptionist' she thought to herself.Suddenly she bumped into

Well, guess who is going to be my mentor?"She sounded excited and happy. I just smiled as I knew who it was. All she had done these past few days was tell me how she admired that designer and how she dreamed of working with him."Is it who I think it is?" I asked knowing the answer very well and all she did was squeal with happiness. "Yes! Yes! Yes! It's Mr. Fabian, Hades I'm so happy.

After dinner, Anastasia went to the balcony as the view was breathtaking while Hades prepared a glass of wine for the both of them. When he came back he saw her leaning on the railing of the balcony. The wind blew her hair, and he couldn't take his eyes off her. He slowly made his way towards her taking in all her beauty, "You wake up to this view every day?" She couldn't help but ask, as he gave her the glass of wine. Her gaze was still taking in the view. "Yes, I guess, but you could wake up to this view too, you know!" He said smirking. Anastasia looked at him confused, so he continued "I mean you can marry me so you can start living here with me and enjoy the view every day" he said nonchalantly as if he didn't just ask her to marry her again. She blushed, looking away at his comment, a smile tugging at her lips "That was a nice try Mr. Arrogant, but no thanks....I can just buy an apartment on another floor and live there. Why would I want to marry you just to enjoy the view

Anastasia walked inside looking lost, she didn't want to hurt him but this was best for both of them, she thought. She had hesitated to walk out the door but then her death played in front of her eyes like a movie, so she walked out. Cordelia saw her walking towards her room and approached her "Ana? What's wrong? Why are you crying?" She asked as if she was genuinely concerned about her but was marveling at the fact that Anastasia was crying. She didn't ask her out of concern but out of curiosity. Anastasia just looked at her with furrowed eyebrows and touched her cheek. She didn't realize that she was crying and wiped her face "Nothing! I'm tired.... I'll catch up with you later" she said blanblankly, started walking, but Cordelia had something else in mind. She grabbed her arm to stop her "Ana I'm just concerned about you. You know you can share anything with me right? I'm here for you" Ana scoffed at her, and pulled her hand out of her grip but didn't say anything. She wasn't in

You decided to walk away so deal with it" and slapped both my hands on my cheeks 'ouch! that hurt'. I had to get ready for my first day with Mr. Fabian. I have to stop sulking now, what's done is done! After an hour spent getting ready I made my way towards the breakfast table "Good Morning everyone" I said to no one in particular.I don't know why but I couldn't stop sulking, all I could think about was Hades and the hurt look on his face. The worst part is that I couldn't get over our kiss too. "Ana!" Father called out my nudging my shoulder. I looked
A love to die for.... Chapter 28: Killing two birds with one stone
After the meeting, we went to our respective workspaces. I like the theme that we chose, kind of fun since I've faced most of it. The seven deadly sins that are wrath, envy, greed, sloth, lust, pride, and gluttony are associated with different colors. I was busy sketching when Claire walked up to me and informed me that I was called in the CEO's office. Claire could see the perplexed expression on my face and she just shrugged not knowing the reason. It suddenly hit me that Lucian was the CEO, Hades had warned me about, but what does he want with me. 'Should I call Hades?' The thought crossed my mind but I ignored it completely 'No I shouldn't! I was the one who asked him to stay away...I shouldn't be bothering him with trivial matters, I thought sighing. As soon as I reached the elevator I heard someone calling me. I looked in the direction of the voice only to find Arthur running towards me "Anastasia darling where are you going? Have you started your designs?" He asked while catc

Both Arthur and Lucian looked at her immediately"Just because you are the CEO of the company I'm working in doesn't mean you can scare me with your words. Leave me out of your messed-up situation and be man enough to sort out your problems with Hades head on rather than using these tricks. You are delusional if you think I'll marry you and help you get your revenge against him" she turned around to leave and just as she reached the door she looked at him again" And one more thing..... This is the first and the last time you touch me, next time I won't let you off so easily" saying she walked out absolutely livid.Arthur was gaping and looked proud.

Hades and Anastasia met at a nearby café after work. Hades looked tired, as if he hadn't slept at all. Anastasia on the other hand was extremely conscious and didn’t know where to start the conversation from, all she could think was the kiss and how her heart was pounding against her chest. Hades, however, decided to break the silence eventually. He reached out to take her hand in his that was placed on the table ''I'm sorry Love…. I really am.''Anastasia was immediately disheartened because she assumed that he regretted to kiss her, but before she could respond he stopped her "Please let me finish'' she decided to hear him out first.''I appologize for lashing out on you yesterday and giving you an ultimatum. I shouldn't have done that… I could have handled the situation differently'' Ana was dumbfounded with his reason. 'I should be the one apologizing to him, he has nothing to feel sorry for. I was irrational and overreacted after the kis
