last update 게시일: 2025-11-03 22:42:44

Cassian’s POV

The champagne had left her breath sweet and alluring as I gathered her into my arms, lifting her effortlessly, her body molding against my chest. Her breath hit my neck softly, sending a shiver straight through me. The warmth of the room wrapped around us, the heavy drapes drawn tight; the only sound was the soft rustle of fabric as I walked with her toward the bed. My heart pounded rapidly, not from nervousness, but from the anticipation of what was to come. Tonight, I wouldn’t r

  • 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   86: When Worlds Collide

    Cassian’s POV “Cut that out,” Slash muttered under his breath, his lips curved into a charming smile as his eyes scanned the room like he owned it.“What is your problem now?” I asked quietly, not even bothering to look at him fully.“Your face,” he replied instantly. “You look like you’re attending a funeral, not a party.”I scoffed softly.Before I could respond, he waved toward Tricia the moment she glanced our way.She stood surrounded by a group of elegantly dressed women, laughing softly; her posture was perfect, and her smile controlled. They looked like they were hanging onto her every word.“Well then, excuse me, ice king,” Slash added and walked off before I could stop him.Of course.I was left standing alone again.My hands slipped into my pockets as I looked around. Conversations filled the room: soft laughter, the clinking of glasses—but none of it reached me.What I hated most was the attention.Eyes were on me, watching and judging.Yet no one dared to approach.Path

  • FATED to SIN, BOUND by TIME   85:A World That Isn't Ours

    Arielle’s POVI stood quietly, watching Soraya as she spoke to Angelina in a low tone.The moment we arrived, the sky had already dimmed into evening, and the place was glowing with soft golden lights that made everything look… beautiful and different.Angelina had been waiting for us at the entrance.She greeted Soraya like they were close, as if they had known each other for years instead of barely speaking.And when her eyes landed on me,I felt it.The shift that was followed by a silent judgment.Her eyes said it all. She was silently questioning who the hell I was and why I was there.“And she is…?” she asked with a polite smile that didn’t quite reach her eyes.“My little sister, Arielle. She’ll be helping us around.”The moment Soraya said that, Angelina’s expression changed.It was quick, almost too quick to notice if I wasn't paying attention.But I saw it.The warmth disappeared, and her smile faltered.And before I could even react, she grabbed Soraya’s hand and pulled her

  • FATED to SIN, BOUND by TIME   84: Forced to dress and go

    Cassian’s POV I didn’t even realize how late it had gotten until the door to my office swung open without a knock. Only one person did that. “Tell me you didn’t forget.” I didn’t even look up from the file in my hand. “Get out.” Slash chuckled as he walked in. “No, seriously,” he said, stopping in front of my desk. “Don’t tell me you forgot about the wine party.” I sighed and dropped the file on the desk before finally looking at him. The damn bastard looked like he was already ready to attend a damn fashion show. He had on a fitted black suit tailored perfectly to his body, with a crisp white shirt underneath. The top two buttons were undone, like he was trying too hard to look effortless. His hair was styled neatly, slightly pushed back, and his shoes were polished enough to reflect my irritated face. “You look ridiculous,” I muttered. “And you look like a man who is about to ruin a very important connection,” he shot back. “I’m not going.” He blinked.“W

  • FATED to SIN, BOUND by TIME    83: A Risk Worth Taking

    Soraya’s POV I dragged my suitcase onto the bed and unzipped it, a smile slowly spreading across my face as I began pulling clothes from my wardrobe. I didn’t even know why I was smiling this much. Maybe it was excitement. Maybe it was hope. Or maybe… it was just the feeling that something... anything... was finally going to change. Because for once, life wasn’t just about surviving. It felt like an opportunity. A real one. Still… I paused, holding a dress in my hands. “What if it’s a scam?” I muttered under my breath. Angelina and I weren’t exactly best friends. Back in high school, I had friends. Real ones. People I laughed with, studied with, and even shared secrets with. Angelina… She was just there. She was loud, pretty, and very friendly. She was also always surrounded by attention. And always using people when it suited her. Even after graduation, we barely spoke unless she needed something.So when she called me out of nowhere asking if I wa

  • FATED to SIN, BOUND by TIME   82: The Third Wheel

    Slash’s POV I still couldn’t believe this bastard had dragged me along. A whole dinner. A whole damn *date*. And not just any date—one with a high-class heiress whose name alone could move markets. I had no say in it. Absolutely none. The moment we stepped into the restaurant, I already knew who owned the place. The place screamed money, from the lighting to the quiet music, even the way the staff moved like they were trained to breathe in elegance. And then there was her. Tricia. She stood up the moment she saw us, surprise flickering across her face when her eyes landed on me. But just as quickly, it vanished, replaced by a perfect smile. Exactly what you would expect from someone of her status. “Cassian,” she greeted warmly before shifting her gaze to me. “And… Mr. Johnson. I’m glad you could make it.” Like I was *invited*. I forced a polite smile. “The pleasure is mine.” It wasn’t! Not even a little.We took our seats, and from that moment on, I knew

    Arielle’s POV“Here we are,” Mom announced happily as soon as we stepped out of the car.Her voice sounded lighter than usual, as if she were trying to convince herself more than anyone else. I didn’t question it; I just nodded and rushed toward the door with a smile already tugging at my lips.Hom

    Cassian’s POV“Go on,” the man said firmly as we stopped outside the mansion gates.I turned to look at him. “You haven’t asked what she likes this whole time,” I pointed out. “I didn’t tell you a single thing.”He exhaled slowly, gripping the steering wheel. “I know. Hopefully, there will be a nex

    Cassian’s POV“Cassian,” the man said as soon as we stepped out of the car, “how do you even know this place?”I didn’t answer him right away.The entire drive here, he had been singing—loud, careless, and off-key. It grated on my nerves, but I welcomed the silence once we arrived. I needed it, eve
