Chapter 15

KIAN

“Are you alone right now?” He asked, his voice cold and tight with urgency. A complete contrast to what his annoying commanding tone sounded like.

I scrunched my face into a frown and side glanced at Darryl who seemed to be interested in the suits in his hold more than I was.

“Uh…no? I'm with Darryl. At the shop like you requested.” I pressed my lips into a thin line. “Is there a problem? Did you hear something?”

“Okay, I need you to listen in closely, Kian.” He responded, stressing out my name like he needed my full attention to whatever he was about to say. This made me straighten up and lean in closer, a sense of dread creeping in my gut at where all this was going.

“I'm listening.”

“Have you seen appearances of men in matching suits lately?” He inquired, the sound of fingers drumming against a desk echoing through the call line. “Matching ties? Watches? Rings?”

“What?” I immediately turned my head to peer around, frustration hitting when I realized that I was still

    CHAPTER 16ANYA“Why aren't you eating, Anya?” Dad's voice boomed across the table, making me grip the fork in my hands even tighter.Because I can't help but wonder why you had to throw me in the very mess that you created dad!“I'm not hungry…” I mumbled, trying to keep my voice steady but the crack at the end gave it away.“This is the third time today. What tantrum are you trying to throw, Anya?” He asked, his eyes narrowed down into a daring glare as I lifted my eyes to answer him.But mum was quick to beat me to it…like always.“I remember Anya doesn't like having meatballs in her meals.” Mum cuts in with a smile, drawing dad's awareness to the stabbed marks in the ones on my plate.He frowned, clearly not happy with my picky habits. “That will have to change this instant because the Silvas are known for their high tastes in Italian foods, especially ones like these. We wouldn't want to cause a stir for them now, would we?”A stir? Was that all I was to them?A scandal?“But the

    Chapter 14KIAN“I can't believe this old man set me up!” “Calm down, Kian. It's just a wedding store, not some minefield.” Daryl facepalmed with a sigh and whispered behind my ears, “You're scaring the poor shopkeepers. You might want to think twice about pulling this off in the public….you never know which camera is on.”The hell I cared about paparazzi or the media now.I'm pretty sure they didn't care about me either, so why should I!I frowned and turned around to see that a woman was hurdled up with two other women in the corner, her lips trembling as she tried to voice out what sounded like a plea.I let out a scoff under my breath and adjusted the touch of my suit as I walked to the counter. “Who’s the one in charge here?”“I-I am, sir.” The blondie that had her lips shaking rose her hands in the air and forced a smile that seemed like she really didn't want to be there.Well, I was glad that the feeling was somewhat mutual.At least someone knew when to keep her down and not

    Anya’s POVI gently closed my door and leaned against it with a sigh. I did not bother to turn the lights on, preferring to stay in the darkness. The only light that trickled in was the faint glow of the moon.Finally I was alone. Alone with my thoughts and feelings.I was engaged. Engaged to be married to Kian DaSilver.There was no turning back now. Not that I would have anyway.I let myself feel the ring that sat heavily on my finger. It felt foreign. An intrusion. Which was what it was exactly.An intrusion into the perfect bubble I once had.It was a white gold ring with a big diamond in the center sandwiched between two smaller diamonds.Under the soft glow of the moonlight it sparkled.I had to admit that it was beautiful.I wondered if Kian had chosen it himself. I would be surprised if he had.He hadn’t looked like someone who would be interested in going ring shopping for a bride he didn’t even choose.If I ever doubted that my fiancé disliked me today was a perfect reminder.

  • Broken SilverCode   Chapter 12: Engagement Party

    Kian I stood among my family, my posture rigid as I tried to maintain my composure. The engagement ceremony was in full swing. I could not believe that Grandfather’s idea was actually materializing. There was nothing I had not done to change his mind in the last two months. I had weeded out a majority of our opponents and secured more deals for us, all in the bid to make him change his mind. But he remained adamant on the engagement. Nothing was going to make him change his mind. I forced myself to smile as the guests flickered around to offer their congratulations to me. I had been in this game for far too long to know that half of them were not genuine. The was always a threat laced beneath each one of them. But the facade had to be kept on. I gulped down the remnants of my glass which I had lost count of in frustration. “Chill man.”, Darryl said eyeing my empty glass. “The ceremony hasn’t even started.” “I don’t give a damn about the ceremony.” “I know you don’t but at l
