I adjust my tie, walking out of my room, reading the day’s schedule that my assistant sent me this morning. 

I hear laughter when I reach the kitchen which makes me look up from my phone to see Aviana laughing at something with the chef who was a kind lady in her late forties. 

Aviana notices me standing there and waves at me with a huge grin on her face

“Good morning!” Aviana says in a chirpy voice. Her smile is beautiful and contagious but I struggle to keep my face blank.

Aviana’s medium length chocolate brown hair is in loose curls as they reach her waist. She looks young and carefree in her skinny light blue jeans, plain black top and a pair of black sneakers.

“Morning.” I say with a slight nod of my head as I start eating the waffles that the chef places in front of me. I look at Aviana when I don’t hear her saying anything to find her frowning at me. “What?” I ask her, raising an eyebrow in question.

“I wished you to have a good morning and in reply, you just wished me to have a morning.” She says. “I am going to have a morning anyway. You were supposed to wish me a good morning!” She explains, pouting in mock-anger at me. 

I hear the chef chuckling at her and a small smile breaks out on my face at her cuteness.

“I am sorry.” I apologize. “Good morning, Aviana.” I greet her in the right way. 

She grins at me before turning back to the chef.

“Martha, you really have magic in your hands! I really love these waffles!” Aviana tells the chef as she takes a bite out of her waffles.

“Thank you, dear.” Martha replies with a smile. 

I haven’t seen my chef smile or talk to someone ever.

It’s… New.

“You have nothing to thank me for. In fact, thank you for making these waffles for me.” Aviana tells her. 

Martha chuckles a little as she watches Aviana eat her breakfast.

Who is this girl exactly?

“It’s my job.” Martha replies.

“I’m telling you, Martha, if I had met you before I got married, I would have eloped with you! Really!” Aviana tells her with a serious face which makes me chuckle. 

Martha chuckles at her too but I can see that she’s shocked to hear me chuckling.

Now, if it was someone else other than Aviana, I would have ignored them or thought that they were acting. But after all the times that I have seen Aviana during my brother’s wedding preparation, I know that she’s not pretending. 

She is what she is.

This girl will tell you to your face if she doesn’t like you. And I’ve seen her doing just that when she didn’t like how the manager at the venue was eyeing her. 

She is blunt and to the point and yet she’s kind.

“Okay, so, I am leaving now. I can’t be late on a Monday.” Aviana says as she gets up after finishing her breakfast. 

Martha takes her plate away as she picks up her bag from the foot of her chair.

“Where are you going?” I ask her, making her turn to look at me with slight anger in her eyes.

“If you don’t remember or if you didn’t know, I am a college girl. I have to go to college.” She tells me before she leaves after saying goodbye to Martha.

Okay, I should’ve known that much… 

I shake my head and try to focus on my work as I look at my phone screen but a certain brown headed young girl is on my mind, not letting me concentrate.

I had wanted to enjoy my life alone. I am 26 years old but I still wasn’t ready to get married. What would it have been like for Aviana, a 21-year-old girl who was still in college? She hasn’t even seen the world yet.

I enter my penthouse to find it completely dark. 

I switch on the lights. It looked the same as when I left it in the morning. 

Didn’t Aviana come back? Where is she? 

I look around the house but it’s completely empty. I am just about to call her when I hear the door of the penthouse opening. 

I hear her giggling.

“Yes, Caroline. I have entered the house. And now I am walking towards the kitchen.” Aviana says as I see her walking in the kitchen where I was standing. “Oh! Looks like I’m not alone. I’m safe now, Caroline. I’ll call you later. Bye!” Aviana says into her phone before disconnecting the call. 

She looks at me with a big smile.

“Where were you?” I ask her, my voice coming out more forceful than I intended it to be.

Why am I acting like a nosy husband?

“Relax! I was at my friend, Candice’s house. She needed my help with some lessons which she had to miss last week when she was sick.” She explains with a sigh.

“But weren’t you just talking to someone by the name of Caroline?” I enquire. 

“Caroline just wanted me to be safe so she insisted on talking to me till I got back here.” She answers.

“Oh!” I say.

“Yeah. But now that we are both at home, do you want to watch some movie or some TV show?” She asks me with a grin. 

I frown at her.

“You have a TV in your room. You can watch whatever you want.” I tell her. 

She pouts in disappointment.

“I was thinking that we could watch something together. Maybe get to know each other a bit.” She says. “Here’s a fun-fact about me, I love watching movies.” She adds with a smile.

“I am sorry but not today. Let’s just have dinner. I have to wake up early tomorrow.” I tell her. 

I have to go to the gym in the morning and then I have to go to work. And I am feeling tired right now.

And honestly, I’ve been thinking too much about our arranged and forced marriage. I don’t want to spend time with her right now…

“Okay. When will you be home tomorrow?” She asks.

“I don’t know. It depends.” I tell her as I loosen my tie and make my way to my room.

“I forgot that you were a workaholic.” I hear her mumbling as she walks to her own room after taking a bottle of water from the fridge.

“Good morning! What are you doing so early in the morning?” I am about to open the door to leave when I hear Aviana’s happy voice. 

I turn around to find her in black tights and a sky-blue sleeveless crop top. Her hair was up in a neat high ponytail. She was smiling at me.

“I was going to the gym.” I answer. “Why are you up so early?” I ask her, eyeing her outfit. 

“I have to go to my dance rehearsals.” She says as she smiles at me. Just as I am about to question her, her phone starts ringing and she looks at it with big eyes. “I am getting late. I’ll see you later. Bye!” She says as she runs out the door as fast as she can.

Well, now I know that she’s the same in the morning as she is at any other time of the day.

Happy and over excited as always…

    “Okay, don’t be angry but I kinda really need your help.” I hear Aviana’s sweet voice whispering as soon as I put the phone to my ear. Wow! This must be the first time that she has called me and to say that I’m not shocked would be a big fat lie. And she needs my help… At least that means that she trusts me to some extent. “Hello to you too! Where are you and what kind of help are you talking about?” I say as a smile instantly forms on my face. I cannot help but smile with her. Nowadays, just her voice or her face or even a thought about her is enough for a smile to form on my face. See ho

    “What are you doing now?” I ask when I hear the loud background noise as Aviana picks up my call. I can hear people shouting in the background and it sounds like a big crowd. I smile as I think about how serious she was last time about protesting about French fries.This girl is seriously unlike anyone I've ever met!“Hey! I am not the one who got all these people here! It was Jared!” She says in a defensive tone.I can almost imagine the pout she must be sporting right at this moment. I chuckle and shake my head.“What is happening there?” I ask her. I hear some shuffling from the other end before the background voices become a little lesser. Aviana sighs tiredly on the other end before she replies.“Jared got a project in which he’s making a small movie with a friend. Half of the movie is completed so they had to gather a little crowd to see it. That idiot told everyone that our band will be singing live and now almost the whole college is here. Even a few teachers are here.” Sh

    “I can’t believe it!” I suddenly speak up as I stare at my phone screen in shock. It is five minutes past midnight which means it is Monday already. “What happened?” Kayden asks as he looks at me with a frown. Kayden and I are sitting on the couch with his arm wrapped around my shoulder and my head placed on his chest as I lean on him while we watch the live drama. The live drama being Mason and Caroline arguing with each other on the floor in front of us about something I don't remember. I'm pretty sure that they themselves don't remember why they started arguing in the first place. After breakfast, the four of us decided to spend some time together so after we all got home, took our shower and got ready, we went to a fair. We enjoyed it a lot and we were tired but it wasn’t too late so we came back to Kayden’s penthouse to chill. We watched two movies before we started talking about random things. We were all laughing and joking around, having fun. I didn't even reali

    I open my eyes to find my face resting on Kayden’s muscular chest, his arm wrapped tightly around my waist. I look up at his face to see a peaceful expression on his face. It is still a little too early in the morning, so there isn’t much light but I can still see his face clearly. I reach up to touch his cheek when I feel him stirring in his sleep. I pull my hand back and look down, pretending to be asleep.Did I wake him up?Darn it!If he finds out that I’ve been staring at him in his sleep, he’ll surely think that I’m a creep!“I know you are up.” I hear his deep husky voice which contains a hint of humour. I sheepishly look up into his deep green eyes, making him chuckle. “Good Morning, princess.” He says in a husky whisper. I feel the heat creeping up to my cheeks at the endearment but I maintain my composure as I look directly into his eyes.I am Aviana the great! I am not one who gets embarrassed easily. I am someone who embarrasses people with ease!And I’ll show that to h

    As the doors of the lift open, I quickly press the buttons to take me back up to the penthouse. I can’t just leave Aviana like that. I have to prove to her that I am not a monster, that I am not a beast. I have to apologize for what I said when my brain wasn’t working. She was just trying to help! Why on earth did I shout at her like that? What might she be thinking about me now!? I have to make everything alright. I have to do something fast!I rush back into the house. Martha looks at me with a startled expression as I enter the kitchen in search of Aviana. She gives me a knowing smile as she recovers from her shock. Right. Aviana went to her room…I awkwardly nod at Martha, who is smirking at me now, before I walk towards Aviana’s room.“Aviana?” I call out as I knock on her door. I stand there patiently. The rooms in the house are soundproof so I am not able to hear anything happening inside the room. After a minute, I knock on the door again.The door opens to reveal a ver

  • Alluring Aviana   Chapter 17: Kayden

    I leave my room to go to work when I hear a familiar sweet laughter coming from the kitchen, making me frown. Wasn’t she supposed to be in college by now? I make my way to the kitchen to find her sitting at the breakfast bar on her chair, laughing at something with Martha. I’m awestruck as I take in her. She is wearing a plain black summer dress which comes to her mid-thigh with a pair of knee-length heeled boots. Dear good lord!When she looks at me, she waves at me with her usual grin."Good Morning, Kayden!" She says when I reach her. She stands up and wraps her arms around my neck, shocking me. I quickly recover from the shock and wrap my arms around her waist. "I missed you." she mumbles.Ever since the party almost two weeks ago, we haven't really seen each other. She was busy all week and so was I. I even worked on weekends to keep myself busy. I didn't even see her in the morning because she was either getting ready or she was at her rehearsals. And I won't lie, I really d
