Mariana Adams' Point of ViewBecause of how he is now acting, I have a strong urge to reprimand him right now. He was hacking up such a storm that he didn't even turn his back on me but instead stayed outdoors looking at his laptop till another sneeze came out of my mouth, at which point I got to my feet and left him in peace. I only wanted to keep the stillness, but I couldn't stop myself from speaking up."Can you stop smoking?" I asked in a hushed and desperate voice.Ares raised his eyes to look at me, then took a puff of his cigarette just before hurling it over the balcony.Without a shadow of a doubt, I responded by stating, "I'm sorry, but it's kind of bothering my nose."He did both of those things at the same time, and then he nodded. "Enter the room and lock the door behind you. Adjust the temperature of the air conditioner so that you can get some rest." I had the impression that he was not in the mood to talk to me, so I did not bother to indulge myself in conversation w
Mariana Adams' Point of ViewIllegal. That's the first thought that popped to my mind. He's illegal… and everything he does are. Nonetheless, I was drawn to his oblivion and unfortunately, a mere woman who like me couldn't unleash the tight grip he has around my neck. I was told that we'll spend the night here and Ares was now sleeping on the sofa soundly. I bit my lower lip as my gut feeling indulged me to go out, unaware of the reason why I did that. Gradually, the door creaked when I pulled it in a slow and gentle way. I went out as the massive space of the hallway greeted me. Sure, Ares' office is huge and I didn't expect that. However, what made my jaw drop even more was the living room at the end of this hallway and the tall inches after one door. I believe that each room and door I past along with has a huge wide space inside. I'm sure of that. Their headquarters was high maintenance, so it's a bit reasonable to find a maid or something but my eyes didn't get one. When I pa
Mariana Adams' Point of ViewIt was impossible for me to dispute the correctness of the assertion that he made because he was in the right. A man who was feared and almost had everything would not stoop down low and would make everything according to what I want and adjust just because someone in his circle wasn't comfortable. He would not do this.It's difficult for me to accept, but that's the way things are."I overheard the man who named Angelo earlier saying that they are going to kill a certain person..." I provided elaboration. "Tell me, do you ask others to kill them as well?" is a direct question."If that's what's needed, then sure. I have a lot of things to think about, and taking other people's lives is not something that comes easily to me." My voice was harsh, and I could hear him muttering. "If someone did anything that I didn't like and butted in, I would do it myself without giving it a second thought," the speaker said." My taste has become increasingly sour. "Let's
Mariana Adams’ Point of View Finding common ground with Beth was like checking off a prize on a lottery ticket for me. It just so happened that I walked into the kitchen at the same time as she and Frida were standing there, and I noticed them both there. Ares and his men delivered me to the estate as we had agreed, so that I could spend some time in this location.The size of Beth's smile broadened as she watched me enter the building. It was at that moment when Frida turned her attention to me."May I ask how you are doing, Miss Mariana? You've gotten pretty!" Which caused me to redden my cheeks when Beth said it.I answered, "It doesn't seem likely to me. Things here are giving me a lot of anxiety!"Frida let out a chuckle. "Since you are still getting used to being in this kind of setting, it is reasonable that you might feel this way. I'm relieved to hear that, at the very least, you're making an effort to adapt."After listening to what she had to say, I responded by nodding my
Mariana Adams' Point of View I could not fathom the motivation behind his visit here. Nonetheless, he kept his word and showed up, despite not calling or even texting any of his security personnel as he had promised. At this very moment, we find ourselves inside the gym that he had set up while he was doing push ups. Because I had such a brattish attitude, I crossed my wrists behind my back and perched on his back. "Hi," I called out to him. "Are you going to answer my question, or are you not going to?" I inquired while maintaining eye contact with him. "Does it not go without saying?" Ares mumbled something as the veins in his muscles started to become more visible. I let out a sigh. "Would it be possible for you to hand me a mobile phone right this second so that I may get in touch with you directly?" Ares smirked. "Are you under the impression that I'll give in and let you have one?" "But you promised it!" I provided elaboration. It was at that point that Ares looked around
Mariana Adams’ Point of View The ardent kisses of Ares prompted my body to respond in an unexpected way. My body tingles in response to each touch that he gives me. His calloused palms began to gently caress the final layer of my dress before he started to lift it up using his fingers while his nostrils were facing my cheeks. He continued this motion all the way down my neck until it reached the base of my neck.“Ares…” I whispered his name several times. "I can't believe how well you're able to make my poor flower slobber, can you?" I mumbled as the apple-red color started to spread across my cheeks.He puckered his lips and then made the first move to remove my dress. When he spotted me wearing a strapless bra, his eyebrows immediately arched, which upraised a question that was about to be asked."What the hell do you call anything like this?" Ares whispered something.It made me chuckle. "Ares, this is a bra without any straps. Since I'm wearing a dress, I don't think it's appropr
Mariana Adams’ Point of View Victoria was identical like Flash in every way. Because of how quickly she moves, I did not anticipate that she would arrive before the scheduled time. When I turned around, I saw Ares becoming enraged inside his office while his men were falling in line in front of him. Now that she was here, I glanced behind me. The fact that I got to witness Ares being angry for the very first time today made me sigh. I wasn't sure if I should go with her or simply stay here and keep an eye on him because he's about to blow his stack at any moment.On the other hand, Victoria came inside and personally brought me out. She had a gleaming smile on her face as she looked at me, and her eyes were shining."Are you ready?" she questioned.I gave you a small smile, and then I smiled. “I am.” I pointed out.She was the one who encouraged me to get inside the can and check it out for myself. As a result of my surprise, I was able to spot a couple of recognized security guards
Mariana Adams’ Point of View Everything turned back a year ago. I was sharing the bed with Liam and we were both asleep. Because his arms were outstretched and he was not wearing a shirt, I was able to see his entire body, which was covered in numerous tattoos, particularly on his chest. As soon as I laid eyes on him, he began to close them while my head was resting atop his neck. I was able to watch him do this the entire time. "I wonder if we would still look like this years after we've given birth to a child..." I said it out of the blue, which caused Liam to cast a sideways glance in my direction. After wrapping his arms around my waist, he pulled me into a tight embrace. Before he started humming, he sniffed my neck in addition to my hair. We are going to be. In a husky voice, he murmured, "I'll promise to take care of you for the rest of your life if we get married, start a family with you, and raise our children together." He said as if he will do it. I first laughed out
