-ADRIANO-

ADRIANO WATCHED AS his daughter walked into the inner office. Avery did not spare him a glance as she closed the door solidly behind them. The door was very soundproof, so he could not hear anything that was going on in there, but he hoped it was good.

He remembered how Avery's facial expression and body language had changed when he asked about her personal life. He felt it was only normal that he should know more about the woman whom he was entrusting the mental health of his daughter to, but she had been quick to send him out after that.

He frowned. Was she hiding anything, and what could she be hiding? He asked himself.

She was not married. He did not see any ring on her finger. Or did she normally take them off during work hours?

His frown deepened as he adjusted to make himself more comfortable. "This stupid chair," he growled under his breath as he stood up. Decided that he could not endure the pain in his ass - literally - He walked out of the office and to his car, w

    -AVERY-I ROLLED AWAKE slowly. I was disoriented for the first few seconds because my surroundings were unfamiliar. Then the events of yesterday came flooding back. Dante, stalking me to my house, and how I had scooped up in Adam's penthouse.I rubbed my eyes and yawned as I stood up to go and wash up.When I went down for breakfast, I met Adam in the kitchen."I'm an early morning person," he said apologetically, handing me a hot cup of black coffee."Me too," I said and thanked him for the coffee."Did you sleep well?" He asked. "I know yesterday was eventful for you."I nodded. "I did. I'm sorry for intruding on you and Emily's time together. She told me you had made elaborate plans to spend the weekend together.""I did make plans," He nodded. "But she chose to be here for you. And I chose to be with her. So it's not your fault."I sighed and took small sips from the cup."You look like you're going out," he said to me. "Work?"I shook my head. "It is the weekend, and I don't have

    -ADRIANO-ADRIANO WAS THE head and CEO of his company, but he was still required to answer to investors and stockholders of the company. That was the only reason he was seated in the office with Louise Stone."I wanted the meeting to be yesterday," Louise said. His voice was funny, like he was struggling to speak through his nose.Adriano snorted. "I had other things scheduled for yesterday.""More important than a business meeting?" Louise asked.Adriano asked himself that same question. A few months ago, he would have disagreed. He would put his business empire over everything, but because of the recent changes, his daughter came first. He looked Louise straight in the eye and said, "Yes. It was more important than a business meeting."That was not the answer Louise was expecting. He was flustered as he looked away, unsure of what to say next."Why did you call me yesterday?" Adriano asked."I spoke with my father."Adriano leaned back in his chair and raised an eyebrow. Louise's f

    AVERYI DROVE TO the address of the penthouse in a few minutes. The penthouse was in an estate in the richer side of town, and all the houses looked alike, only identifiable by the small numbers in front of each house.I parked by nunber 13, which was the number on the address. I put in the security access code at the front door, and the door opened.If I were not so drained emotionally and physically, I would have been in awe at how magnificent the house was, but now, all I wanted was to soak in a hot tub and wish all my problems would dissolve away.I dropped my comfort pillow on a couch and found a bathroom. As I fixed a bath for myself, I tried to take my mind away from my encounter with Dante, and my situationship with Nick. A small moan escaped my lips as I sank into the steaming tub. I closed my eyes as the stress left my body and I relaxed.After feeling a bit more like a human being, I got out and dried myself with a towel I found in the closet. The whole house felt unused an

    AVERYMY HEART THUDDED in my chest as I left my office and Dante.What was he doing here? After all these years, he decides to just show up randomly.Why?I was equally pained and confused. My phone rang, startling me. It was Emily."Hello?" I answered."Did you escape him?" She asked."I didn't have such luck," I muttered. "Nick showed up as I was leaving.""Oh God, no. Was it bad?""As bad as you'd imagine," I answered. "Nick claimed to be my lover, and Dante said he was my husband.""What?" She yelled into the phone."Yeah," I sighed."Well, did you snap them out of their delusion?" She asked me.I shook my head, saying, "No. It was too intense for me. I just got into my car and drove away.""I understand how you must have felt," she sympathized with me. "I just hope this doesn't escalate more than this.""I hope so too," I replied."Where are you headed now?" She asked me. "Did you cancel your appointments with your client?""I don't know where I'm going," I answered truthfully. "

    -DANTE-SEEING AVERY STRUGGLING in that man's grip had roused a feeling of intense jealousy in Dante that he had never felt before. He wanted to immediately go and punch the man in the face and save Avery from the monster.Avery was looking more stunning in the glow of the morning sun. He wanted to claim her right there in the open and have kids with her."I do not want to see you anywhere near me!" She snarled at him and pushed past him. She got into a small sedan and screeched away from the parking lot, leaving him in awkward silence with her "lover"."You heard her, stay away from us." The other man said and got into his luxury car, and drove away too.Dante stood on the street, shock beyond words. He did not believe when Avery said she had a lover. There was no chemistry between the two of them. It was like they were strangers. Dante looked at the old building that housed Avery's office. He did not know where else to go. He found out earlier that he did not know Avery's home addre

    -AVERY-MY DAY WAS going on smoothly. I had my first client of the day, and I was pleased with how much progress we had achieved. I was just busy, trying to catch up on the paperwork and files, when my phone rang. It was Emily, and a smile crept to my lips. "Don't ask," I said as soon as I picked up the phone. "I have not told Nick yet, and -""Shut up and listen to me, Avery," Emily snapped.I was shocked. "What is it?""Dante was just here."The words sent a chill into my blood, and my smile froze on my lips before slowly withering away."Did you hear what I said?" She asked. "Avery, are you still there?"I nodded. "Y-yes, I am." "Dante Vale was just here. You ex-husband." Emily said. "He thought this was your house. I don't know how he found out my address, but he seemed very determined to find you.""What?" I could not believe what I was hearing. Dante. What was he doing here? And why was he looking for me?"If he knew about her, I am sure he knows about your office too," Emily s
