My Beloved The CEO

Gazing at the mirror before her she could not help but feel at a loss. A million thoughts were running through her mind racing at a mile a minute. Sliding her hands down the silky white gown she hummed to herself. Could she really do this? Was she ready? Would she be able to make the love of her life happy for the rest of their lives? Shaking her head as if to shoo away the thoughts that haunted her for days she bravely put on a smile. "I can do this, it's no big deal. Just me tying myself to someone for the rest of my life. No biggie, right?" She asked the person in her mirror, her face fell when no reply came but of course, she would not get one from her reflection. "Robin, are you rea-Oh my gosh you look stunning" Her long-time best friend, Layla gushed entering the room. She admired her friend and bride-to-be. Her excitement far surpassed that of her own. Giving her a disapproving look Layla raised a brow at her, confused as to why her friend was not as excited as she was.

Dawn broke bringing with it the soft chirps of birds and the cool fresh air mixed with its icy touch. A cool breeze entered the room's close confines, causing the teal and white curtains to move along in a dance, revealing a ray of light to seep past them. The ray of light shined over a sleeping Robin, disturbing her peaceful slumber. Grumbling in protest she turned her head to face the other way falling back into the world of dreams. However, her peace was short-lived and her alarm blared at her to wake up. "Are you freaking kidding me?" She cried out in frustration peeling off her covers and slamming a hand over the alarm a shot of relief flooded through her at the seizing of the annoying noise. Throwing her legs off the bed she sat up rubbing her eyes in fatigue. She yelped from her seated position as she stepped on the cap of one of her beers. The floor was covered in empty bottles of beer and the caps littered her dresser and floor. After the events of last night, Robin raide

When she was a little girl Robin always had some sort of vision of her future. A good marriage with a hardworking husband, two or three kids filling the house with their joyful screams, and a cute golden retriever as the family dog. That was the life she had dreamed of. Instead, she was tossed aside by her fiance on their wedding day, used as a pawn by her own mother, and ridiculed by her sister. Her reality was far from the dream life she had wished for. "I'm sorry, what now?" "Being a mistress to a well-known CEO would mean danger for you. Put simply you would be a target for the media. However, if a marriage between the two of us is established then you would have my protection from the media and they would be less likely to attack you." If it was dangerous for me, why would he care? It's not like we know each other or something so why is he suggesting this for my protection? "Okay, but what is in it for you?" She asked looking up at him from the couch. "It would clear up m

Waking up once again to another day Robin opened her curtains wide and stared out into the city. Gazing up at the clear blue sky her face fell in distraught as the sky had remained the same whilst her life was slowly crumbling. Shifting away from the window she looked at the fully packed luggage bag sitting atop her bed. Everything was packed and ready to go. The only thing that was not prepared was her heart. Sitting on the edge of her bed she sighed, burying her face in her hands. Though she had already signed the contract she was still unsure of her decision. Doubt filled her mind and a sinking feeling settled in the pits of her stomach. Just as she was falling into a tunnel of uncertainty she was brought back by the sudden knock on her door. Whipping her head out of her hands she stood up from her bed and made her way to the door. "Who is it?" She called out with her hand on the handle leaning against the door. "Ms Heymers? My name is Alec I was sent here by Mr Acres." "O

Grumbling in protest at the light shining across her face Robin turned away from the window in an attempt to fall back into slumber. Sighing in relief she grasped her sheets delighted at their soft touch. Her brows scrunched in confusion at the silk sheets. She did not own anything as soft as this. Startling awake she sat up in a panic. Looking around at her surroundings she slowly calmed down as memories from the previous day came rushing back. "Ah, right. I forgot about it" Relieved from her shock she lay back on her pillows. Closing her eyes in meditation she heaved a large sigh sinking into the large pillows behind her. A small breeze made its way into the room from the small opening of the window. All tension left her body, shivers ran across her skin at the touch of the cold breeze. Before falling asleep, a knock on the door frightened her out of her daze. Her senses came back and she answered the stranger behind the door with a small yet audible voice. "Um, come in" The do
