Synopsis

Acadia Dimitri, just a few weeks after graduation navigates between two part-time jobs. Despite this, she holds her head high and works with grace and resilience. Her chestnut-tousled hair, the only inheritance from her mom that no one could take from her stood out as evidence of her efforts to put herself together. She stumbles across a job opportunity in her dream country, one of the prestigious companies in New York, D. M. Corps. Ltd. She is elated when she gets the job. Her first day at her new job becomes a memorable one when she collides with the company's CEO, Dante Maximilliano. His piercing eyes looked into her soul searching for answers she couldn't give. She felt a jolt of electricity surge through her. But he does something shocking, he walks out on her without saying a word. She is left to mull over the evident attraction she felt towards him. As time went on, they felt drawn towards each other, only for Dante to find out that the secret he so desperately wanted to keep hidden had a connection with Acadia. What will happen now? Will their relationship stand all trials or will they get drowned in a world full of danger, chaos, and betrayals?

Chapter 1: Portraits of Acadia's life
ACADIA“Grrgh grrgh” the alarm clock went off waking me up from my beauty sleep. With sleepy eyes and tired arms, I stretched to aggressively turn it off, sighing and wishing I had more time to sleep before I started the day’s hustle. I felt a sharp pain course through my back and aching which felt like I had fought a never-ending war the previous day. Juggling between two part-time jobs did that to me. I reluctantly stood up from my bed and went to do my morning business before going to the kitchen to take my green tea which was part of my morning routine. Green tea always made me feel better and alive, for some people, it was coffee but coffee gives me anxiety. Setting my favourite mug which read “best friends forever” on the kitchen island, I called my best friend's number. “Hi bestie” my best friend Emily replied after two rings. “Hi Emily, when would you ever pick my call on one ring?" I asked and moved to caress my forehead with the tips of my finger in an attempt to calm a r

Chapter 2: Collision of fates
ACADIA“Grrgh grrgh”, my annoying alarm clock went off once again. It had been two weeks and three days, since I sent in my application but got no response. I was already losing hope when my phone buzzed with a new email notification just as I reached the doorstep of my second shift for the day. I pulled out my phone to read the message. The subject line read, "Job Offer from D. M. Corps Ltd." My hands trembled as I opened the email, my eyes scanning the words that held the promise of a brighter future."Dear Ms. Dimitri,We are pleased to offer you the position of Content Writer at D. M. Corps Ltd. We were impressed by your portfolio and believe your skills align perfectly with our company's values and vision.

Chapter 3: The First Day
ACADIAI got to work very early the next day. I had stopped to get coffee for my co-workers, I desperately wanted to make a good first impression. When I got to my space in the large office, I arranged my notepad and the laptop that was given to me by the company on my desk. I proceeded to give the coffee I brought to my co-workers, earning smiles from them. By 10 a.m, I proceeded to the meeting that was slated the previous day. I was the second person to get there. Everyone who came in looked like they knew what they were doing, I fidgeted with the helm of my skirt, I felt nervous but I was determined to carve a name for myself too.Mr. Jerkins was the last person to be seated.“Welcome everyone” he began. “It’s an honour to be a part of this team. Here, we work together in unity and… I listened while he went on about the office rules and regulations, what was expected of them and so on. Now, it was time for introduction, Mr. Jerkins gave room for everyone to introduce themselves.

Chapter 4: Echoes of destiny
ACADIAWhen I got to his office, I knocked.“Come in”. He called out. “Take a seat”. He smiled and offered.“Acadia” he began, “Your work has not gone unnoticed and you have been nominated as the best employee of the month. Mr. Dante would be going for an important gala in London and you are to go in place of his secretary with him. You would work hand-in-hand with him. You would be in charge of the contents and would communicate with me on the progress. Do you have any questions?Questions? I had a lot to take in. I couldn’t put a name on how I was feeling. I was happy to be given such a huge responsibility for the little time I had spent there. However, how could I deal with the sudden pull, sweating of palms and anger that felt whenever I laid eyes on Dante. I was certain that he would not be happy about this development. “No, sir. I’m honoured to be given this opportunity. I won’t let you or my team down”“You may leave. Meet my secretary to give you a briefing of your role and

Chapter 5: Whispers of Affection
ACADIAOr rather, someone caught my attention. The person's eyes widened when they looked towards me."Acadia?" the person called."Anderson." I smiled and hugged him."Oh, my word, Anderson. How are you?"I'm fine Acadia, you look… as dashing as I can remember." "Thank you, you don't look bad yourself. What are you doing here? Last I remember you moved to Washington, D.C. with your girlfriend. By the way, how is she?" I asked. Anderson was my high school crush. His boyish grin was his highlight in high school, his blonde hair was always neatly arranged, I always liked him but he liked someone else. His girlfriend. I tried to keep in touch throughout the university but he ended up moving to another city to start a new life with his girlfriend. This made me sad, I archived his contact in order to gain closure of the situation. This had left me heartbroken for weeks but I was thankful for the opportunity to overcome my unrequited love.However, seeing him now seemed to awaken burie

Chapter 6: The Pull
DANTEI knew the new content writer, Acadia, was built differently from the first time I saw her. However, she surpassed expectations in just a short time. Her face looked familiar though, like I had seen her somewhere before. When we collided in the corridor the other day, I felt a strange pull towards her. Her blue ocean-like eyes were mesmerising, I couldn't look away. It was strange and so I did what I thought was right. I walked away without saying a word. Didn’t want to give her any wrong ideas. Shutting my office door, I felt strangely hot even though the air conditioning was on. What was happening to me? I never fell sick, my dietician made sure of it. Since that day, I have watched her every move and tracked her progress. She stood out everywhere she went and in all she did. I wasn’t surprised when she was nominated as the best employee of the month. A very important gala was coming up and my secretary has been the one to come with me for events like this. However, I had th

CHAPTER 7: War of Love
ACADIA “Acadia.” Mr. Dante said as he stood in front of me. I turned towards him.“Mr. Dante” his eyes moved to Anderson and his hands, still on my waist. I watched his mouth subtly fold up in a frown. Was he mad that I brought a date on a business trip? “Who is this? He asked. It sounded a little rude but he was my boss, and I wouldn't be here if he didn’t approve of it.I fidgeted and looked at Anderson. “This is Anderson, my old time friend. We met at the hotel.” I offered the explanation not that it was necessary. But something about the way Mr. Dante was looking at me propelled me to clear up any misunderstanding. Mr. Dante’s eyes got dark with emotions for a split second and it was gone. Am I imagining things now? If looks could kill, Anderson would be lifeless on the marble floor from the daggers Mr. Dante sent him through his eyes. They stared at each other with so much heat and tension. Like they had been sworn down enemies before now. I cleared my throat to relieve the si

Chapter 8: An Unexpected encounter
DANTEIt was a struggle to control myself from snapping at anyone who looked at Acadia in a lustful way, the man she was with seemed like he held a very strong relationship with her. My initial background check of her showed no romantic relation with anyone but this guy looked at her as more than friends, finding the slightest chance to touch her. It annoyed me more that she let him do it. I almost let out the dilemma I was in when someone from the team proceeded to kiss her on the knuckles. I instantly found an excuse to take her from there. Still figuring out what to do with this obvious attraction towards her. Someone called out my name.“Dante” ignoring the prefix in my name. Only a few people were allowed to do that and get away with it. I turned and met with Sebastian. I couldn’t stop myself from smiling. I have not seen him for a month. We’ve been inseparable since our younger days, sharing countless adventures and secrets. Now seeing him brought a wave of nostalgia to wash ov

Chapter 9: Dangerous dance
ACADIAI was awakened by the sunlight seeping in through the window. I panicked immediately I looked around because the environment was not familiar. But I regretted instantly because the action caused a sharp pain in my head causing me to whimper. ‘What happened to me last night?’ I thought. I attempted to get down from the bed.“Easy”. A voice said. I turned to see Dante standing before me in a white tank top and grey shorts. My face contorted in a frown. ‘Why was he here? Where am I?’ as if he could hear the questions that I thought to myself.“I brought you in last night,” I stared at him, waiting for him to continue, not saying anything. He furrowed his eyebrows and continued. “don’t you remember what happened last night?I thought hard about what happened. I instantly had flashbacks of what happened last night. I remembered the attacker who almost attacked me and Dante coming to save me. I felt a sharp pain in my head and clutched my head in an attempt to reduce the intensity of

Chapter 10
“Hello?I managed to say out of breath. I was still in a daze from a moment ago. I almost kissed Dante? Or maybe he almost kissed me. It didn’t matter anyway because he had dashed out when my phone rang.“Acadia!” Sebastian called out in a worried tone. “What happened last night? I looked everywhere for you but could not find you. It did not help when you were not taking my calls. Are you alright? He rushed out.“It’s a long story Seb, one that can not be talked about over the phone.”“Is everything alright? Do you mind talking over a cup of coffee?"I don't think that's a good idea," I replied to Sebastian's invitation, my voice still shaky. The memory of last night's events was too fresh, too raw. Plus, after what almost happened with Dante moments ago, I needed time to process my thoughts."Come on, you can't stay cooped up in your room forever," Sebastian pressed, his voice carrying that signature playful tone that somehow made everything seem lighter. "Plus, I got intel that they
