If he couldn’t meet her heart with even a shred of mercy, then she would not beg for his warmth again. She would meet his coldness with her own.

Her heels echoed like thunderclaps in a cavernous silence against the polished floors as she walked away with a grace that betrayed the storm inside her. Her spine straight, her posture composed but inside, she was shattering. Every step was heavy with sorrow, her lungs aching with unshed tears. A thousand emotions wrestled within her, each louder than the last. She could feel it. Regret swelling in her lungs, mingling with something that almost felt like relief. An awful, terrible kind of relief.

Because now, at least, she knew.

She had fallen for the wrong man. He was cruel. Calculated. A master of veiled daggers and polite venom. And still, somehow, she had loved him.

And the worse part is she had let him break her.

But it wasn’t all his fault. She had handed him the knife. She had walked straight into the fire. She had played a part in he

  • Taming The Charming Director   It Felt Like Defeat

    Arnav came home that night in a state of bone-deep exhaustion.The weight of the day clung to his shoulders like a soaked overcoat, dragging each step heavier than the last. As he pushed open the front door slowly, not expecting anything but the same silence that had greeted him for the past few weeks.But tonight, something was different.His steps halted. He was caught off guard by a sight that froze him in place.There, curled up on the armchair near the entrance, was Raellyn. She fast asleep.She looked so peaceful, her head resting lightly against the side cushion, dark lashes fluttering gently over her cheeks. Her body folded into itself like a tired blossom, arms wrapped around a cushion, her breathing slow and soft. Her face, illuminated faintly by the golden light of a hallway lamp, looked peaceful. Serene, even.For a moment, Arnav forgot to breathe. He just stood there, motionless.How long had it been since he saw her like this?Since he allowed himself to really look at h

  • Taming The Charming Director   Unpredictable

    But no.She had known. She knew it for certain now: she was in love with him. She had made sure of that before ever daring to confess. Afraid she might have been wrong.But it was true. What she felt for Arnav was unlike anything she had ever felt for Arsene. It was deeper. Heavier. More dangerous. It was different from what she once felt for Arsene.Arnav was the one who held the most powerful sway over her life now. He had become a force in her life. So unshakable, unrelenting. And even when he disappeared behind silence. She tried to reach for him.Not just with her heart, but with her understanding.She wanted to learn him. His sorrows, his quiet grief, the reason he flinched at affection. She wanted to fix what the world had broken in him. She wanted to bring them both back to mend their bond. To bring their relationship back to a place of peace.But then, she stopped herself.How much could she truly understand him?That lingering question surfaced again.A part of her heart wo

  • Taming The Charming Director   Loneliness

    No.He could not yet forgive her lies.His thoughts turned to Raellyn again, his heart beginning to ache once more.A new kind of ache took hold of him.He remembered her words. How unexpectedly she had spoken them. The pain in her voice. The rawness of her confession. And with that memory came pain, creeping in like a shadow.He had said nothing at that time. He had offered her silence in return.And now he could imagine the consequences of his silence pressing against his chest.He had pushed her away. Not because she had failed him, but because she had come too close. Because she had shown him something he didn’t know how to handle love.Before the storm, Arnav couldn’t deny it:The moments he spent with Raellyn had been some of the happiest in his life.She had told him she loved him.That she had made space in her heart for him. That she no longer held a place for Arsene in her heart.But did he love her?He wasn’t sure. The truth was he didn’t know. He didn’t even know if he co

  • Taming The Charming Director   Mom's Deary

    January 20thToday is Arnav’s thirteenth birthday celebration.Unfortunately, I’m not allowed to witness it. I wasn’t allowed to come.I wished I could go, but I know Jullian would throw me out of his home if I insisted. Perhaps even take it further, He might go so far as to make it impossible for me to see my own son again. Sometimes, I wonder if exile would be kinder than enduring the cold indifference I constantly receive from both my husband and my son.I’ve tried, over and over again to build some kind of relationship with my handsome son. But I must accept the bitter truth: he no longer sees me as his mother. The way he looks at me is filled with hatred. It’s heartbreaking.How I long to embrace him the way I used to when he was a child—to whisper to him just how much I love him, how proud I’ve always been. I have always loved Arnav. Despite the storms I’ve had to weather in my marriage with Jullian.my love for our son never waned.My heart was utterly shattered the moment I—

  • Taming The Charming Director   Maybe Tomorrow

    Because she had never owned him, not his heart, not his loyalty, not even his time. What they shared was a bond by name, not by soul. And the rest?The rest was just a lie she whispered to herself late at night when the silence grew too loud.It was that knowledge. That unshakeable truth that kept her awake. That pressed down on her chest like a weight that couldn’t be moved. It wasn’t that she wanted to control him, to possess him like some women did with their husbands. No. She wasn’t that kind of woman.All she ever wanted, perhaps foolishly was more of him.More of his voice. More of his touch.More of his time.When was the last time he had even looked at her with kindness?She thought back to the last real conversation they’d had before the fight, before the sharp words and colder silences and she came up empty. It had been so long since he’d looked at her without reservation. So long since she had felt seen.Maybe it was after they argued about his mother.Maybe that was the tu

  • Taming The Charming Director   Overthinking

    When Arnav finally reached his car door and Arsene was still standing nearby, Arnav cleared his throat. His subtle way of signaling that it was time to part ways. This was where the evening should end. He needed some time alone again and didn’t want any further interruptions from his brother. But instead of taking the hint, because Arsene was either oblivious or simply pretending not to notice. He wandered to the passenger side and casually opened the door, as if assuming he was welcome.By the time they were both seated inside, Arnav could feel the tension rising again.“Shall I remind you to go home?” he said coldly. “Your wife might start getting worried about her husband staying out this late at night.”Arsene didn’t seem to care. He buckled his seatbelt, clearly ready to ride with Arnav. “She’s an understanding woman,” he replied casually.“She still deserves attention from her husband,” Arnav pressed, hoping his brother would get the message and leave his car.“In that case, you
