FATED to SIN, BOUND by TIME 92: Unwanted Coincidences
Cassian's POVI adjusted the cuff of my suit and looked at my reflection in the glass wall of my office.Everything was exactly how I wanted it.Today's meeting involved several investors and board members. Usually, I wouldn't care enough to prepare myself mentally for something like this because meetings were always predictable.I always smiled, shook hands, listened to people, and pretended to care about their future.But for some reason, I felt irritated today.Maybe it was because my father had called twice in my office.Or maybe it was because I had too much alcohol with Slash the previous night.I honestly didn't know.When a knock came, I sighed."Sir, the investors have arrived."I looked away from the window, then at her when she stepped in."Let's go."The secretary nodded.As we walked through the hallway toward the meeting room, I loosened my tie slightly.Immediately, the doors opened.I walked in.Then stopped.For a second, my expression nearly cracked.My father sat at
FATED to SIN, BOUND by TIME 91: The Past Refuses to Stay Buried
Arielle's POV“What? Don’t tell me you are nervous,” Soraya said before turning in her seat and looking at me with a raised brow.I tightened my grip on my bag and looked away.I was nervous.Very nervous.Because, unlike everyone else, I knew this place.I knew these buildings and hallways.I knew the people.Or at least... I had known them.But the problem was that this wasn't truly the same life anymore.Things were already changing.I had entered Cassian's life much earlier.I had met people differently.I quickly pushed the thought away.“Come on, Arielle, it’s just college. It’s not like a freaking job interview,” Soraya said.I looked at her with disbelief.“It’s easy for you to say such things, Soraya,” I complained.I took a deep breath before opening the car door.The warm morning air hit my face immediately.Students walked around the entrance carrying books and coffee cups while some laughed loudly with friends.Everything looked exactly like I remembered.Yet somehow...e
FATED to SIN, BOUND by TIME 90: Morning After the Wine Party
Cassian's POVA loud groan left my mouth as I forced my eyes open.“What the hell…?”I shut my eyes again immediately when the sunlight hit my face. My head felt heavy, and my throat was dry.For a second, I wondered where I even was until I noticed the familiar ceiling of my penthouse bedroom.I slowly sat up while holding my forehead.“Damn it, Slash,” I muttered.The last thing I remembered clearly was the two of us drinking straight from the whiskey bottles while talking nonsense. After that, everything was blurry.I looked around the room, then frowned when I noticed I was still half-dressed.My suit jacket was hanging on the chair, while my tie was somewhere on the floor, together with my shoes.“How classy,” I mocked myself.I reached for my phone on the bedside table and widened my eyes slightly when I saw multiple missed calls from Rudolph and a few messages from Slash, as well as a strange number.The strange number had sent an address, which I ignored, and looked at Slash's
FATED to SIN, BOUND by TIME 89: Preparation
Arielle's POVThe moment Soraya parked the car in the driveway, she stepped out without waiting for me and walked straight into the house.I watched her quietly for a second before grabbing my bag and following behind.The ride home had been silent.The kind that made me understand she was still upset over everything that had happened at the party.The guards mocking us, Angelina's insults, and being threatened with a lawsuit.And probably the embarrassment of losing control in front of everyone.When we stepped into the house, the lights in the living room were off.“Mom isn't home yet?” I asked softly.Soraya shook her head while taking off her heels.“She probably got held up at work,” she answered tiredly.I nodded slowly.“Goodnight,” she muttered before walking upstairs.“Raya…”She paused halfway.I opened my mouth wanting to say something comforting, but nothing came out.“Rest, okay?” I said instead.She gave a small nod and then disappeared down the hallway.I sighed softly
FATED to SIN, BOUND by TIME 88: Cracks Behind Perfection
Slash’s POV I was so fucking pissed.I tilted the glass and swallowed another mouthful of wine before grimacing.“This whole shitty party is a damn joke,” I muttered under my breath.“Sir, should I pour you some more?”I turned slowly and looked at the waiter standing behind me.The poor guy instantly stiffened under my stare.“Get the hell away from me,” I said coldly.His eyes widened for a second before he quickly nodded and walked off.I leaned against the balcony railing with a scoff.Everything had been fine before that damn waitress showed up.Actually, more than fine.For once, I had genuinely been enjoying myself.Tricia was beautiful, charming, and unlike most rich girls, she actually knew how to hold a conversation without sounding brain dead. Sitting beside her earlier had felt comfortable.Then that crazy woman came out of nowhere and ruined everything.Not only had wine been spilled all over me in front of important guests, But she insulted me openly, as if I were some
FATED to SIN, BOUND by TIME 87: A Dangerous Bargain
Arielle’s POV I walked beside Soraya in silence, still holding the tray in my hands, even though it felt useless now.The moment we entered the dressing room, she let out a frustrated breath and ran her fingers through her hair.“That jerk! I can't believe he followed us here!” she snapped loudly.I stopped walking.“What?” I turned to face her, my brows furrowing. “You think he followed you here?”She glared at me, clearly not expecting that response.“Can't you tell he belongs in a place like that?” I continued, my tone sharpening. “Everyone in that room was like him. If anything, we are the ones who look like we’re stalking him right now.”Her eyes widened in disbelief.“What did you just say, Arielle?” she asked, her voice rising.“For goodness' sake, Soraya, do you even realize the kind of mess we’re in?” I snapped, my voice louder than I intended.She froze.“Arielle…” she whispered, clearly shaken.I exhaled sharply and walked past her, placing the tray down on the dressing t
FATED to SIN, BOUND by TIME 56 : Echoes That Stay
Arielle’s POVI walked slowly, my feet sinking into the soft mud with every step.The rain had stopped, but the earth still clung to me, cool and heavy between my toes. I didn’t know how far I had wandered from the temple. All I knew was that the path in front of me didn’t feel familiar anymore.My
FATED to SIN, BOUND by TIME 55: ARC 1: The Seed of Fate
Arielle’s POVI woke up with tears sliding down my cheeks, silent and warm. Something inside me felt… off, though not painful. Just a strange tug in my chest, like I’d woken up from a long dream I couldn’t fully remember.“Arielle… baby.” A gentle hand shook my shoulder. I blinked against the
FATED to SIN, BOUND by TIME 54: When Fate Finally Spoke
Arielle’s POVSilence came first in my darkness.Not peace. Nor comfort. Just… nothing.The burning in my chest was gone.The suffocating panic, the sharp pain every time I tried to pull in air—it all vanished so suddenly it scared me.I tried to inhale out of habit, but my body didn’t respond.Tha
FATED to SIN, BOUND by TIME 53: The Call That Ended It All
Cassian’s POV“Next time, don’t fucking kiss me back—or look at me like that,” I snapped, my eyes fixed on the file in my hands. “It’s disgusting.”Tricia stood across from my desk, silent for a beat longer than usual.“How do you expect me to make it believable if I don’t?” she asked quietly.Ther
