Earlier, the mood was way off for eating anything. Hence, she refused to eat without a second thought, but now things had changed completely and with the soup placed in front of her, which was wafting the scrumptious smell, she could not stop herself from drooling.

"Dig in, or do you want me to feed you," said Zac.

"Don't bother. I can eat," Katherine hurriedly said before he got to his feet to feed her. She could not guarantee this unpredictable human.

"Alright," Zac said and grabbed the fork and knife. With a precise measure, he cut the steak into chewable pieces before putting some of them into Katherine's plate.

She held the spoon right before her lips and blew on it gently before tasting. However, seeing him with such a gesture, her heart welled up in happiness, but at the same time, she did not want to expect more from him.

"I can do this... Your mushy behaviour kind of makes me feel awkward," Said Katherine, and put the spoon full of food in her mouth, trying to act unaff

    ☆☆☆☆☆☆"How come you don't know who the man was?" Katherine raised her brows at Zac, who had his eyes on the road as they were heading home. "It is your plan! The man should have someone you handpicked... someone you have offered money to. There is no point in lying because I am just going to hear. There is nothing I can do about it." "I have told you my knowledge about the man is zero because he was arranged by my people. And yes money is involved," Zac replied in his way with his eyes on the road. Katherine felt something was missing in his answer even though he answered everything.Exhaling, she put a stop to her curiosity and moved her head toward the window. She leaned on her seat and closed her eyes. Since she was full, the sleep was slowly fuzzing her brain. Suddenly Zac's voice interrupted her clouded brain."I want to throw a birthday party for Liam. He mentioned it is this month. I forgot the date," Zac said with a casual tone. "You should not. Besides, it is not this mo

    ★★☆★☆Merlin was on the verge of losing consciousness since she was not able to take a breath, yet she did not miss what the man said to her."Make a quick choice otherwise I will kill you right now and bury you somewhere far away. I know you are not the reason I am in the situation, but still, you are the only living thing in front of me, and I will not mind venting my anger on you," Jacky said with murderous intent. He was quite clear with his intention.Just a day ago, he was on his way to meet a client at this very Hotel when something caught his eye- Katherine leaving a room in a flustered state. Her hurried steps, the panic on her face... it didn't sit right with him.His instinct kicked in.With a little digging, it did not take long to uncover the truth. Katherine had not been there alone. Givon was involved and so was this brave woman.It was not hard to piece together what was cooking behind closed doors.But he was not ready for tonight.While heading out to meet a man in h

    ★★★★★On the contrary, it was almost midnight when Merlin woke up from her sleep, but Zac was not on the bed next to her, which jolted her up right away.She was using her sultry voice, called "Zac." The room was dimly lit, but a black figure could be seen standing next to the window, smoking. A smile bloomed on Merlin's face since she knew who it was. "I don't know how long I have waited for this moment. I know you are going to be angry, but both of us have no way to change what has happened other than accepting," Merlin thought to herself, her heart welled in satisfaction as she got out of bed, wrapping the sheet around her like silk armour.It was no less than a dreamy moment for Merlin.She made her way to where Zac was standing, the sheet dragged behind her. "I did not know how you ended up here. Have you given the wrong room number?" She said, acting innocent. Even though her happiness soared high, she could not let her guard down.She waited a second to get a reply, at the s

  • One-night stand with a Ruthless Mafia; He has a son   The kiss to seal

    ★★★★ "I think I'm getting hungry. Can't we wait till we eat, then you can tell me all this?" She said with an urgent tone. No matter how close she had become to him, he was still a dangerous man. However, whatever she thought or said did not make any difference in that situation, because she still got dragged. But she was yet to get a surprise. Making a small turn, he led her through a narrow archway and out onto a balcony. Katherine froze. Countless candles flickered around them, casting a warm, golden glow. A beautifully set table stood in the centre, surrounded by dancing Fireflies that lit the night with a quiet magic. Her breath caught. "What?" She muttered in her head, her heart pounding. "What is all this for?" Zac finally let go of her hand and turned to face her, a slow satisfied smile curving his lips. He did not need her to say anything he could see it. The way her eyes widened, the way she stood frozen, breath caught in her throat. Everything he had done, had it

  • One-night stand with a Ruthless Mafia; He has a son   Katherine's confession

    ☆☆☆☆☆Katherine looked into Zac's eyes and locked horns with her own situation. She thought it was best to speak out about the truth; however, she did not think about speaking about this part."You are dazed again. How fascinating is that?!" Zac added, "Are you thinking about how to tell the truth or are you making up another story to cover up your truth?" "Can't you say your thoughts normally instead of taunting?" Katherine said in a displeased tone."All my words," Zac let out a dry chuckle, leaning back in his seat, " they are ordinary. Plain. Even harmless."His gaze locked onto hers, and the humour in his voice thinned into something sharper."Unless, of course, what I said pulled the sheet of your carefully constructed facade. Then suddenly my words are not so normal, are they?"He tilted his head slightly, the deep smirk playing at his lips, giving him more devilish charm."Funny how truth only stings when it finds the face you have been trying so hard to suppress," said Zac.
