Fake Fiancee Chap_11. Perfect Den to the Devil
Eden stood still at her place as her eyes stubbornly stayed at Damien. His face was gleaming under the bright lights. The masculine jawline looked sharper and firm. His hair looked glossy. Damien was looking far way more handsome in his three-piece suit; a white smooth, cotton shirt, black skinny pants, and slim fit blazer. Damien's laughter dried down when he caught the sight of Eden staring at him. Her eyes strangely looked mesmeric to him today that was not covered with the thick frame glasses that he had been seeing since the very first day of their encounter. His eyes took her appearance in effortlessly and then turned to her face again. Both held each other's gaze for a moment or two before Caroline took Eden to the place where Damien was standing and introduced her to the people who weren't many in number. Just the family members of Damien and some close relatives to be specific. The pleasantries were shared for a good long time and then Damien and Eden were made to stand f
Fake Fiancee Chap_12. Unexpected Encounter
Damien's POV This girl's foolish bravery really amuses me sometimes. What does she think of me actually? "Okay. If it's what you want, I don't mind changing it." I said smiling back at Eden. Her smile died down but Mom's face lit up like a kid at a candy store as she said, "That's like my son." Before I could speak up again, Mom spoke up, "Okay. Now let's go downstairs. Everyone is waiting for you." Nodding at her, we two followed her in tow out of my room and then downstairs. After spending a good few moments, having dinner together and all, Eden along with her family were about to leave. As much as they insisted on not bothering us, Mom was stubborn enough to get them to agree to her demands. Though letting them go by our cars was enough, Mom asked me and Nate to drop them off. So, obviously Eden was with me in my car as I trailed behind the car, Nate was driving other members of Eden's family and her friends home. Breaking the silence and getting things normal, I thought of
Fake Fiancee Chap_13. Full of assholes
Author's POV... As much as Eden wanted to ignore it, she couldn't. This was a normal meeting and Eden was needed to take notes if necessary that she had done it so many times but today things started to go down in another way. Simon Henderson wasn't fully concentrated on the meeting as well. Instead, his eyes were wandering around Eden every few moments. Eden for a few moments stood pale-faced as her past started greeting her after years but then tried to get herself together. She tried to focus on the meeting, praying for it to end as soon as possible. When it finally came to its, as usual, successful ending, she didn't know whether to be happy or angry. With her given situation, she didn't want to give Damien another reason to blackmail her. When Simon left the cabin with his PA following behind, Damien spoke up as he turned the pages of the file they just signed, "You can leave now." Eden wasn't needed to say it twice and made her way out somewhat relieved that she would have
Fake Fiancee Chap_14. Blurred Night
The sun rays flickered through the curtains and fell on her face. Eden stirred in her sleep and turned to the other side as she tried to fall asleep again. But the throbbing headache didn't let her. Still, she tried to keep her eyes shut, praying the headache to go down soon. But just after a few minutes when she felt the warmth of the unfamiliar comfy comforter as well as the bed, she snapped open her eyes only to find herself in an unfamiliar place. She sat up immediately as her eyes traveled all over the place on their own. The bed as well as the room was empty except for her. Her throbbing headache was long forgotten as she looked all around the gigantic room once again. She tried to remember how she ended up here as she came out of the comforter and got down from the bed immediately. Last night she was at the club with Cassandra and Brenda and then she picked a random stranger. She danced with him and then... Her eyes immediately trailed down at herself. Her very own dress fro

...Eden's POV...In the morning when the driver drove me to my destination, I swore to myself not to drink again and sent a yearnest prayer to heaven not to face the man ever again with whom I spent last night doing what I didn't even want to recall.But here he was again in front of me at the doorway of Demon's cabin standing beside Nathaniel. The way we two were barking at each other, there was no way he didn't hear it. But more than that what surprised me was his smile.He was smiling at me so warmly but it only made me feel embarrassed. I looked everywhere but him. I was thinking of a way to escape from there anyhow. Strangely, Damien made it easy for me."Leave." He said coldly. I turned to him to know who was he referring to only to find his hard glare at the young man beside Nathaniel. Just after a few moments, Damien turned to me, "I asked you to leave. Get back to your cabin.""Okay, Sir." I responded and took my leave as soon as possible keeping my head down.I got into my ca
Fake Fiancee Chap_16. Falling Hard
Damien's POV When I saw Eden getting close to the only person I hated the most on the earth, I stood glued to my place for a few moments. Tristan Hoult.The heir of Hoult Enterprise as well as a billionaire playboy. I thought of Eden to be of a different type when she stood her ground in front of me, not falling for me, for my looks or my status. The girl beside me who was trying to call dibs on me from the moment I entered here, was still saying something seductively but my gaze stayed rooted on the dance floor as they walked there. I handled it till I couldn’t anymore. Nate and Julian were waiting for me in the VIP lounge. I knew I should just reach them and spend the night likewise, drinking one of my favorite brands and then.. My thought got paused when I turned to the dance floor again. The faces of Eden and Tristan were getting close. With anticipation, I seethed in anger. Before I could think much, pushing off the girl who was clinging to me, I had ascended the stairs and
Fake Fiancee Chap_17. A Not So Pleasant Surprise
Eden was so sure that Cassandra was never going to agree to this job. But for once she thought of trying. Well aware her place was not a good option for this discussion nor the apartment where Brenda would be present. So, she had to behave so unlikely of her and call Cassandra out for a dinner. After waiting for almost half an hour, an ever so energetic Cassandra reached Eden and settled on the chair across from her. "Sorry, Edie. I got some work to finish. Anyways, what's the urgent matter? It was for the first time you know. It was always Brenda or me to get you to agree to an outing." Cassandra stopped as she read Eden's face, "What's the matter, Edie? Did anything happen?" "Nothing like that. I got a job for you." Eden said, trying to be all smiling. Cassandra knitted her brows in confusion, "For me?" "Yeah." Eden smiled as she asked her to be a part of the team being an announcer for a big project where she would earn a handsome amount. Everything was okay. Cassandra was just
Fake Fiancee Chap_18. Uncomfortable Irritation
As much as Eden tried to hide her teary eyes from Damien, he had already seen it clear. And a not so wanted feeling settled in his guts. Damien drove roughly all the way to his penthouse as the same thoughts crossed his mind. He shouldn't have asked her the question not at least when she had already answered the question in front of her parents. Not when she was still trying to meet his irrelevant demand. But he knew Hoult. If he had taken it this far to throw it open to him, he wasn't joking or something. And the way he had seen Eden approaching him, she would gladly accept him most probably. Eden never seemed to give a damn about him. So, there was no way she approached him being jealous of seeing him with a girl. He couldn't be the reason behind her behavior from that night. Did Eden just fall for Hoult at first sight? Did she? But he was also a billionaire playboy just like him. Then? Just like she said at their first meeting he was not good for her. Did she mean it then!!
