ATHENA'S P.O.V:
At morning,
Liam picked me up in the morning as he said. We had a little talk. I opened about him a bit about me and Avery. I just wanted to open up about me to him. He is still waiting patiently which am so thankful for him. He has his way with his words that could make a sad person to smile. Also, he never questioned about yesterday's night. He know that I would be embarrassed. He reads me that am like a open book. It's not like I'm with a guy. I hardly had friends and company. He was the one made me comfortable around guys but not totally am still bit fear around them.
Actually we have meeting with Lucas industries as they wanted to tie for the upcoming project. Our company has a good relationship with the most competitive company. It's not lik
LIAM'S P.O.V:I was shocked... nope scratch that it was an understatement. Why do she have to hide herself like working for myself? Why is that? What is she exactly hiding herself?Didn't she believe me? that was the first thought came to my mind. I want to know her past and support her whatever she has done is past. Even she did a mistake that is enough to hurt someone I don't mind it. Everyone deserves second chance. I'll be present in both her present and future.Dropping her off home, I headed to meet Lucas. I know this must be the rival companies revenge. This a major project which results for the most advantageous for the poor people. Of course as guessed Lucas and us grabbed that opportunity. I actually guessed that they would make a move on us, but not this fast.
ATHENA'S P.O.V:Liam is making me fall for him hard each and everyday. I can't stop thinking about him. It's like he owns my mind totally with himself. Whatever the thoughts came to my mind leads to him only him. I know that I was far away of liking him, but I have fallen for him. His care is enough for me to live on this world. He trusts me and believes me even though am not opening up to him. Is it possible for someone to fall for a person this soon? The only doubt I have in my mind is... Does he feels the same, or am I the only one who is feeling this way? But some way, it made me to think that he too feels the same way. I'm not an expert in these eye reading technique, to read over the emotions shown in those eyes.He keeps me happy, without knowing what he does.
LIAM'S P.O.V:Emily called and scolded me after I reached my penthouse. She was cursing me senselessly without breaking or giving a gap for breathing. God! How did she even know to curse like this? I know that she is worried about Lucas. Probably, Athena would've told her. Lucas and me never declared our friendship outside to the world. It's not like we don't want to, but it may lead to unwanted confusions in our business. He worked hard himself to get this position in business. He never got a penny from my parents to build his own empire of business. He is such a stubborn person as well as, Emily too. They would make a best pair. I noticed the moment they set eyes on each other. But being them, they not even confessed their love to each other. Still fucking themselves with their eyes all the years.They don't even talk much, but they alw
ATHENA'S P.O.V:At morning, I wake up with the same bundle of warmth and a familiar cologne. I got my best sleep today, over these years. I know the reason. Last night scene came flashing in front of my eyes. No one could ever protect me like Liam. He didn't even wanted to know or what's going on, but he was already there to protect me. He understands me more than myself, as if he is mind reading me.When I was about to stretch, a hand was weighing down in my stomach preventing me from moving. I turned around to see Liam was sleeping peacefully. I was laying on my stomach as his face closer towards my neck with his lips gazing a bit. I moved a little to study his face. His face was void of emotions and with a little pout. His long eyelash grazing his cheek bone. I studied his face closer this time. He had a scar a the right top of his forehead.
LIAM'S P.O.V:I've been avoiding her for the past week. I know I'm fucking being stupid enough to be pissed about. I know that I can't compel her to say it. She never said a word that she is moving out of the penthouse, for which am thankful for. I made sure she ate three meals a day. She has been giving apologetic looks at me. I know if I look at her one more time I'll probably left my anger or my ways of ignorance towards her. I'll apologize in this trip for being an asshole for this week. I've been giving a cold shoulder for no reason for her and as well as my friends. I behave like a girl on her periods.I asked William to pack my bag which I've always kept for business trips. Lucas probably made the best choice to propose to Emily. He has planned something which he succeeds getting her love at last. My parents should be present on the day
ATHENA'S P.O.V:After talking my heart out about the week that he ignored me, I felt a burden left my shoulders. I was glad that he understood me. Yesterday, somewhat we ended in the same bed, not like we are having sex, just as friends, cuddling to sleep.My thoughts drifted towards the thing he said to me in the plane. It's still ringing in my ears like a song. But I was beyond confused, I think he still thinks me as his friend. He said that he liked me, in a friendly way of course. I wasfriend-zoned, seriously. I was disappointed so much.Doesn't he likes me the way I like him?I mean nothing but a friend to him?These questions intrigued me so much.
LIAM'S P.O.V:How the hell he did have guts to text her! I was fucking losing my shit! I was beyond rage and all I do was wanted to kill him! At the same time I have to protect her, with my everything. The person whoever messes with mine is gonna pay for that badly. I don't know who he is or what he have done to her, but I will never let him lay his fingers on her. I was rude and arrogant with everyone unless my family, but She changed me just with hereuphonious voice that makes me go crazy over her. I neglected everything until she came.She is mine and I like her fucking much that I can't even describe with words.When she wore the navy blue dress that hugged her curves perfectly, I lost my sanity. Her big yet perfect breasts were covered under those laces of
ATHENA'S P.O.V:"Athena.." Her voice croaked at the end. I looked at her tired lifeless eyes, as tears already welled up in my eyes. I have to stay strong for her. I have to save her. I have to get both of us out of here."Mmm.." I replied shakily, not believing my voice which is going to burst out crying endlessly. I looked everywhere not at her because if I see her I cannot control myself when I looked at her bruised body."Baby girl.." She called me softly. How can she remain so calm after she went through all of those disgusting things. I know she is staying strong for me. To give me hope. But, I'm alive because of her, only her."Bella, You know that I love you right!" I asked her silently. I lo
