Hate to love you: The star's forbidden obsession Emergency that couldn't be afforded
ZAYDENMy phone beeped once on my desk.My first instinct was to ignore it. Distractions when I'm coding new features were absolutely not acceptable.On second thought, I picked up the phone and clicked on the message.It was a picture of someone bloodied and in chains.My heart dropped straight into my belly and I quickly tapped on the picture, enlarging it.I know those hands.Even without the face, I knew exactly whose bloodied arms and legs they were. Kael.What could have happened?My eyes remained glued to the image, desperately searching for anything that could explain what I was seeing.There was a message attached below the picture.[If you still want to see this brother of yours, come to Crenshaw district. And follow this map.]My hands began to tremble uncontrollably. Fear seized me so violently that, for a moment, I could barely feel my limbs.Kael has been kidnapped.But why? I already paid the gambling debts from last time. Who could be going after him?Sweat coated my u
Hate to love you: The star's forbidden obsession Crawling back like a dog
RONANI barely managed to make it back to the car.The moment I shut the door, I allowed myself to collapse against the steering wheel. My hands wouldn't stop trembling.Bryan had said Zayden’s career was ruined with so much assurance and confidence. As though it were an established fact.What could have happened?If even Bryan believed it was my handiwork, wouldn't Zayden believe worse?My fingers fumbled as I fished out my phone. It took me several attempts to scroll through my contacts before I finally found the number of my private investigator.My secret eyes. The one person I kept away even from Hank and the others.A wise rabbit never makes one hole in case of betrayals and incompetence.For something this delicate, he was the one who should handle it.I tried to type out the instructions, but my muscles failed me. My fingers wouldn't stay steady enough to form a coherent message.In the end, I had to settle for a voice note.Blacklisted? Zayden was insanely talented. What coul
Hate to love you: The star's forbidden obsession You're just like me
RONANI slowly pushed the door open, and my eyes immediately went to the desk where I knew he would be sitting.He indeed was in the office.But today, there was no whore around him.He seemed to have stopped dating his staff after that incident, looking further away for excitement.My gaze swept across the room before settling on him. Bryan looked up from his computer. A slight smirk lit up his face as he leaned back in his chair, watching me.“The little starlet you intercepted, how did she taste?”My nose wrinkled almost instinctively, and I scoffed. “What? Do you want to settle the scores with me?”I walked over and sat on the arm of a sofa closer to him, my eyes fixed on his face.“Was that the reason you called me here?”He hissed dismissively. “If you want her, you can keep her. I'm never short of women.”My lips curled into a disdainful sneer. So to him, this was something to be proud of?I shook my head wryly. “Why am I not disappointed? Mother must have been so blind to foll
Hate to love you: The star's forbidden obsession Dirty legacy
RONANBryan didn't show up until the very end.That was how I ended up inheriting Grandma's hidden estate and trust fund.She'd wanted to keep it in Bryan's custody. But at that vital moment, he was busy with his little secretary. So I became a billionaire at fourteen.No one knew.Not Bryan. Not the family lawyer. Just Grandma's retired maid and the mysterious lawyer who appeared that day, carried out his duties, and disappeared just as quickly.Outwardly, I only had the family trust fund that had been set up publicly at birth. But that single moment of Bryan's carelessness had given me something far more valuable than money.My greatest weapon.Even then, though, I would have traded every penny of it to have Grandma alive and sitting beside me.That night was still painfully fresh in my memories.I'd rushed back to the hospital and found Grandma struggling to draw even a single breath. Her chest rose unevenly beneath the thin hospital blanket, every breath seeming to take more effor
Hate to love you: The star's forbidden obsession Only disgust
RONANBy the time I reached the headquarters, my heart was already boiling with suppressed anger.I wasn't exactly close to Bryan, so why would he suddenly summon me?Instead of taking the main entrance, I directed my Aston Martin into the underground parking lot.I parked in the president’s designated spot. Not that I'm the president, though.The area was unnaturally quiet, almost deserted. Yet countless cameras were positioned strategically along the walls and ceilings, their lenses quietly tracking every movement. At the first sign of danger, emergency countermeasures would be activated immediately.I made my way to the private elevator reserved for the chairman.Facial recognition scanned my features before the doors slid open. I stepped inside and pressed the button for the executive floor.The elevator seemed incredibly slow today.This fucking company was the last place I wanted to be.Every time I came here, the same suffocating disgust rose from somewhere deep in my belly, cr
Hate to love you: The star's forbidden obsession Strange family dynamics
OMNISCIENT POV[This POV is used when the chapter requires immersion and the two main characters are not involved. However, omniscient POV will only occur in limited chapters throughout the story.]Devereaux Holdings, HeadquartersBryan Devereaux sat behind his desk, brows furrowed as he went through a report.The soft rap against the door drew his attention from the document. He lifted his head. “Enter.”The door opened, and his assistant, a male beta in his late twenties, stepped inside with a tablet in hand. “We have a little problem, sir.”Bryan's eyes narrowed slightly. “With the production line?”The assistant hesitated.It was barely noticeable, but Bryan caught it immediately. The young man's fingers flexed around the tablet, and a faint awkwardness settled across his features before he finally looked at his employer.“No, the date you asked me to arrange…” His pitch was low, as if the very thing he needed to say was extremely embarrassing. “... might have a problem.”Bryan dr
Hate to love you: The star's forbidden obsession Giving the enemy ammo
ZAYDENMy jaw locked. The room turned stifling, air too thick to breathe, my heart hammering against my ribs like it wanted out. My thoughts frayed at the edges, vision swimming at the corners. Ronan’s eyes gleamed, vicious satisfaction naked in them. His hand slid up my spine, slow and deliberate
Hate to love you: The star's forbidden obsession A recipe for disaster
ZAYDENOne hour at the gym, and another ten minutes at the school sports facility did nothing to loosen the knots in both my shoulder muscles and chest. It felt like something heavy was crushing me from the inside.It didn’t matter. I had to shove it down and enter the rink. Today was the internal

ZAYDENMy hands gripped the report sheet so hard my knuckles turned white, eyes fixed on the leaderboard. Blood in my mouth from biting my tongue too hard. Ronan Devereaux. Number one in Managerial Accounting, two points higher than mine. Statistics, one point higher. One fucking point. General

Zayden MercerThe scent hits my nose the moment I step into the villa. The luxury holiday cottage which the school had prepared for our hockey teams as we competed with Worcester’s Polar Titans. I marched into the house. There in the central living room, Ronan Devereux was sprawled on a sofa, trou
