Soraya's POV

Was I early?

I wondered as I looked around the quiet club.

It was already past the time Lady Chi-Chi had told me to report, yet the place was almost empty. The music from the previous night was gone, the lights were dimmer, and only a few people were moving around.

Lady Chi-Chi, on the other hand, didn't seem bothered in the slightest.

She walked through the lounge with her tablet in hand, occasionally tapping the screen while checking something. She looked completely relaxed, almo

  • FATED to SIN, BOUND by TIME   130: The Truth I Was Never Meant to Know

    Cassian's POVI was woken up by my cell phone ringing.I groaned loudly and grabbed it, half asleep, from the dressing table, answering without checking who it was."What?" I asked in a low voice."Come home, now!" Father's voice commanded through the phone.I was instantly awake when I heard him."What?" I asked, sitting up."Home. Now!" he commanded again and cut the line before I could ask anything else.I stared at the phone for a few seconds.Something was wrong.Father never called me like that unless something had happened, and from the tone of his voice, whatever it was wasn't small.I forced myself out of bed and went into the bathroom to take a bath.I was feeling a little fatigued and hungry, but I knew my father wouldn't let it slide if I took more than an hour away from home. He had always treated my time as if it belonged to him.After dressing, I grabbed my things and walked outside.Nemesis was already waiting by the car."Home," I told him.He didn't ask questions.He

  • FATED to SIN, BOUND by TIME   129: The Man I Used to Be

    Cassian's POVI couldn't believe Slash had called me out for something like this.As it was, I wanted to see or talk to no one.I was going through emotions I had never experienced this intensely before.My chest felt heavy, and my mind was a mess.And every time I closed my eyes, I saw Arielle standing in front of me with tears in her eyes after I had called her a whore.I had destroyed her.I knew that.But then again, how could I turn down Slash's invitation without a proper explanation?Maybe I needed to be around my best friend.Maybe I needed to get high and get everything off my chest without caring about how pathetic I sounded.So I went.When I arrived, Slash welcomed me like always, with a joke and a happy tone that didn't match my mood at all.I barely reacted.We took our seats, and he immediately looked at me from across the table."Why the hell do you look like shit?"I stared at him.Normally, I would have insulted him back.Today, I didn't have the energy."I let her g

  • FATED to SIN, BOUND by TIME   128: The Boss Is Here

    Soraya's POV"Are you okay?" Lady Chi-Chi asked while I packed the bottles into the crates.I paused for a moment and looked at her.I was okay in a way.But ever since yesterday, I had felt so uneasy.I couldn't really explain it properly, but something inside me just didn't feel right.Maybe it was everything that had happened.Maybe it was the strange feeling I had been carrying since meeting certain people.Or maybe I was simply overthinking things."I'm okay, Lady Boss," I answered.She immediately rolled her eyes.Since yesterday, I had started calling her that.When a customer came at me, throwing his weight and name around because he wanted me to act like the dirt he thought I was, Lady Chi-Chi had gotten very upset and stepped in.To shut the man up, she had pulled seven cards from her purse.I still remembered the sight.They went from a golden card all the way to a black card.Even I had been shocked.I had never seen so many cards like that in my life.When the man called

  • FATED to SIN, BOUND by TIME   127: I Won’t Give Up On Him ( part 1 )

    Arielle's POVI woke up with a headache that felt like my head was being ripped apart.I groaned low and slowly moved to sit at the edge of the bed, bringing my hands to my forehead with a low sigh."Arielle, how much did you drink?" I asked myself softly.I honestly couldn't remember the last time I had drunk that much.I stayed there for a few seconds, trying to collect my thoughts. My mouth felt dry, and my body felt heavy. Even opening my eyes properly seemed like too much work.Then everything from last night slowly started coming back.Cassian's friend.The pub.The liquor.Cassian.I swallowed hard.I got up and made my way to the bathroom. I stripped off my clothes and stepped into the shower, turning it on.As cold water poured over my body, I took a deep breath and closed my eyes.Almost immediately, images of what happened last night played in my mind.Slash sitting across from me.His serious expression.The things he told me about Cassian.The truth about his childhood.T

  • FATED to SIN, BOUND by TIME   126: The Man Behind His Walls

    Slash's POVI felt terrible because I knew that if she was in this much pain, Cassian was probably hurting just as badly.I knew Cassian like the back of my hand.For years, I had known what he meant even when he said the exact opposite of what he felt.When this lady first appeared at his company and said all those crazy things, I expected him to throw her out.But he didn't.He held his ground and allowed her to stay.Even at the wine-tasting party, he protected her with his own reputation.From then on, it became clear to me that she meant something to him.A lot.She was obviously from a low background.If she wasn't, why would she have been working as a waitress at the wine-tasting party?She was obviously way below our status.But that didn't mean Cassian couldn't have feelings for her.He did.That was the very reason he tolerated her more than he had ever tolerated any woman he introduced to me.I didn't want to intervene when she walked into the pub.I knew better than to do

  • FATED to SIN, BOUND by TIME   125: The Night I Gave Up

    Arielle's POV"Screw fate and the destiny goddess. I'm done!" I screamed as I walked through the streets with blurred vision and tears running down my face.How could I be so stupid and fight for such a man?It was clear as glass that the Cassian of this timeline didn't want me or want me the way I wanted him.His words had shattered my heart and made me experience the same pain I had gone through when he decided to let me go in our first life."How could he?" I asked in a whisper as his words played repeatedly in my mind.Cheap whore.Climbing the social ladder.You are only worthy to be played with.I pressed my lips together as more tears escaped.How stupid and naive was I?All this time, I thought I was breaking down his walls.I thought the little moments we shared meant something to him.I thought the way he looked at me, touched me, and stayed close to me meant that somewhere inside him, he was beginning to remember what we had.But in truth, I had only been making a fool of m

  • FATED to SIN, BOUND by TIME   5. Under the steamy shower

    Arielle’s POVI lay on my bed, tangled in sheets that I couldn't bring myself to fix. My mind was restless, and my heart beat louder than ever.Cassian.That name had become a curse for me.Every time I blinked, it was him I saw. The way he moved and smirked whenever things went his way. The way hi

  • 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   6: Trapped in thoughts

    Arielle’s POVI lay on my bed, exhaling deeply as if I had been holding my breath for days. The walls of my bedroom had always felt familiar, like a shield—but now they felt like a trap.It was very late, yet I couldn't hear anyone's voice. Usually, Evelyn and Raya were noisy whenever they came int

  • FATED to SIN, BOUND by TIME   4: Confession in the Dark

    Arielle's POV A few days had gone by, and I was trying my very best to ignore and avoid Cassian. Raya was now usually coming home late, and her excuse was, "I'm doing two shifts since my bestie Kayla sometimes goes to take care of her sick mother." I understood her, but I also felt very uncomfor
