"One more step and I will make you regret" He hissed with his burning gaze on me. My body stiffened and I remained still at the same place. His threatening words choked me. I pitied myself for how helpless I'd become. But my intrusive thoughts said otherwise, what if I didn't listen to him and ran further away from him? I felt a pair of hands rise to my shoulder. My breath became unstable feeling his skin on me. "Good girl" he hushed in my ear letting out a silent gasp due the surprise act of his. I think I have just let my mind win over the fear I had for him. ~~~~~~~~~ Aster Di Fazio gets tangled into an arranged marriage with the heir of one the wealthiest families, Adagio Amato-the most feared and filthy rich. He never goes against his parents and hates the idea of commitment. As for Aster, she was a simple girl with a loving heart. She has always been under her parent's shield and was showered with love and comfort-a heart of generosity and happiness. They're opposite to each other in every way possible, but they carry the same last name. This marriage didn't look promising and every member of their family knew that. It is no more than a contract after which all of it will be burned and blown away with wind. Well, that's what everyone thought.

Take Me Dinner again
Aster~It's been two days since the fight, and Adagio has retreated back into his cold shell. We haven't had a proper conversation since then; whenever I try to talk to him, he either ignores me or pushes me away, saying something really rude. I don't intend to address the issue between Adagio and Ace; I just want to be there for him. I know the effort it took to break through the walls between us, only for him to retreat and add two more layers on top. He’s been avoiding me like I caused the fight. It's absurd to see someone react so irrationally to situations like this instead of just facing it.In the past two days, he's completely shut the world out, and while I’ve tried to tell myself he might just need some space, I'm the one feeling suffocated by his absence.My heart is drawn to him because I caught a glimpse of his humanity—that small, vulnerable part of him that slipped through. It showed me the person inside who seems desperate to break free, but Adagio keeps him hidden. I
Take Me Fight
Aster~"Oh my gosh, Mom and Dad, I've missed you both so much," I exclaimed, pulling them into a tight hug. They smiled at me, and I could feel the emptiness inside me slowly start to fade. "How have you been, Mom?" I asked as I stepped back."It's just not the same without you, sweetheart," she said with a sad smile, though she finally seemed content and happy. "And you, Dad?" I waited for his response. The last time I saw him was on my wedding day, and his mood and expression from that day flashed through my mind.I was searching for answers, but all I could find was the same guilt that had surfaced during my wedding. "Dad?" I called out, and he looked at me for a moment longer than usual before smiling, pushing away the regret that had started to reappear."I've been doing well, love," he said, pulling me closer and kissing the top of my head. But before I knew it, he was gone. He walked away, disappearing into the crowd. What happened to Papa?I didn't want to ask my mother about i
Take Me Family
Adagio~ I've kissed countless times, and I've always had someone by my side when I wanted. Those kisses never held any meaning, and I've done a lot without any commitments. A kiss on the cheek shouldn't be keeping me up at night.Maybe it just caught me off guard, seeing her break free and act on whatever crossed her mind. I knew she was trying to get closer to me, and I knew I should protect myself from her, but my defenses crumble every time she’s around. I hated how, bit by bit, she carefully dismantled the armor I wore to guard my heart. I woke up the next day, determined to stay away from her, no matter what. I didn’t care if she thought we were building something—her high hopes weren’t my responsibility.As I walked downstairs, she came into view. Sunlight gleamed on her face, casting a soft glow in the shadows of the house. My gaze drifted to her rose-colored lips, and the memory of last night rushed back to me.Sensing my stare, she looked up from the pan. A smile spre
Take Me Dinner
He took me to the most expensive restaurant in Paris. The place screamed luxury and wealth, making me feel almost out of place in such grandeur. Meanwhile, Adagio walked in as if he owned it. His presence and aura are more powerful than any amount of money could ever provide. His ruthless gaze and dangerously controlled temper seem so fragile, it feels as though one wrong move could shatter it. His words carry such authority that even the law would bow to him. And now, this kind of person has invited me to dine with him? In this moment, I feel honoured and special, though I can't promise I'm the only one he's brought to places like this. I still don't know the reason behind his generous gesture, but I'm willing to accept anything as long as it involves him. I know I'm probably just being a fool for him, but there's a small hope flickering at the edges of my heart. I sat across from him as he ordered for both of us, nodding at the waiter before turning his gaze toward me. His intens
Take Me Success
Aster~James agreed to do the advertisement, and it turned out to be a huge success. Mr.s Anitta is really pleased with the outcome. As I got to know James better, I found him to be relaxed and fun—completely the opposite of Adagio. The sales took off just a few days after the ad was released, and profits quickly started piling up. Mr. Godwin had to delay signing the contract for a few days to reconsider his options and untimately choose us. I've already come up with a brilliant idea for marketing his products. When I explained it to Adagio, he didn't object and, once again, asked me to take the lead. Adagio has become slightly less distant than before, but the coldness is still very much there. He keeps me at arm's length. Though it hurt, I didn't complain—any progress, no matter how small, is still progress. I've been working in his office unofficially, helping with his business, and I'm not even getting paid. But I have a feeling that once all this is over, he'll push me out of
Take Me No way!
Adagio~I hate to admit it, but Aster's idea was creative and original. And when it comes to busniess, I always want the best. Today, she arranged a meeting with Mrs. Anitta, and I was quite curious to see what she had in mind to make her plan susscessful. She's even bringing in cilents, which I certainly won't complain about. Aster is full of surprises, and I find myself wanting to know more about her. She exudes postivity and happiness, and her smile never fades, which is almost unsettling. My assistant walked and informed me that the meeting is in five minutes. I put on my coat, adjusted my tie, and headed to the conference room. Everyone stood up and greeted me when I entered; I simply nodded in response. I took my seat and immediately noticed Aster arranging her documents and reviewing her notes. I appreciated how focused she was when she worked.Her hair cascaded down her shoulders, and she wore a fitted skirt paired with a pink blouse, looking professional and admirable. I n
Take Me Solutions
Aster~Adagio's assistant escorted me to my temporary office cabin. I sat down with a sigh of relief, thinking of ways to win back Mr. Godwin.This time, I needed to ensure everything went smoothly, without any setbacks. Perhaps this could be my chance to get closer to Adagio. If I secured this deal, maybe Adagio would start to warm up to me.With this thought, my motivation surged, and I was determined to present this project in the best way possible. I quickly scoured the internet for new, rare, and unique marketing strategies.Not only did I need a fresh approach, but I also needed a compelling idea to persuade Mr. Godwin. "Hmm," I murmured to myself, leaning back in my chair as I contemplated.I rushed to Adagio's office, confident in the idea I believed could bring Mr. Godwin back to our side. I knocked on the door and walked in, once again met by the cold air."That was faster than I expected," he smirked, straightening his posture as he prepared to listen."Well, that's why you
Take Me He asked!!
Aster~At this point, is it even worth helping Adagio? Never seen a man more adamant than him. It's almost impossible change his mind. I always believe deep conversation can open minds, but Adagio just won't let me speak. He always says something to cut me off or to make me dumbfounded. All these rantings and complaints about him push me to the edge of giving up on him. But deep down, I know Adagio has faced things that his heart is covered with metal. Not just any metal; it's something that does not give into, care, love, worry, or any kind of affection. Having thoughts line up in my head while I was just sitting passing away my time, not knowing what to do. I have done everything I could possibly do in this house, and no one can continuously do the same activities over and over again. Adagio never permits me to go out alone. If at all I want to go anywhere, I have to take James with me, and that's annoying having someone follow your every move; it's also suffocating. I heaved a h
Take Me Controlling
Adagio~Yesterday's incident is still running through my mind. All of my outburst of anger, or should I say some kind of panic attack that consumes when this fear of losing takes over?At that point I stand with a blurry vision of the future; it feels so lost and hopeless. I know what it took to sit here with power and authority. The thought of it vanishing from my hands sends this undeniable frustration and anxity. After all, it was the only thing that was putting the breath in me. What drives me crazy is that Aster walked into my office like she owned all the rights that possibly exist over me. No one ever dared to cross my office; the sound of breaking and wrecking would scare them away. I was convinced that she only stepped in without being aware of the damage I could cause. I hate how she coolly controlled my one hell of a mood. I am in denial; I cannot accept the fact how the sight of her, the sound of her voice, and the warmth of her touch made me feel. It was as though a sud
