LIAM KNIGHT'S P.O.V:
I just want to forget that soothing and calming voice of hers. Wait! I said calming and soothing right, I must be really insane. She is driving me insane from the moment I heard her voice. I don't even give a shit about girls. I respect them, but I don't know if a part of me keeps on thinking about the incident that happened a few days ago.
Fuck!
I don't even know who she is! But she already occupied my mind fully not by her face but by her beautiful voice that has been fucking my mind since the moment I heard her.
A few days ago.,
"You couldn't even finish this simple work which is your responsibility Ms.Stones. I don't even know why are you not even able to do this simple work damn!" I shouted at my secretary.
"You better finish off the work and report to me as soon as possible," I said to her. She left with a curt nod closing the doors.
God damn! she can't even finish the given work. I rubbed my temples to get rid of the tension rising in my head and the dull throbbing. She is already my fifth secretary for this month. But I'm already frustrated selecting them. None of them are professional. Most of them threw themselves at me for my money. I don't do relationships or even one-night stands they are probably a waste of time. I do believe in relationships and love, but I haven't met anyone as true as someone whom I can spend my forever life with her. This was going to be a long day than expected!
I was turned to be this way because of my past. You can trust no one unless it has to be you. I'm always rude to everyone other than my family. They are the people whom I can depend on without a doubt or question.
In the evening, I left the office early since I'm tired as hell. My driver William who is another fatherly figure for me greeted me and opened the car door for me to get in.
"To my penthouse," I ordered him with a nod.
On the way to my penthouse, William stopped the car mid-way. I asked him what was wrong with him.
"I want to pick up my child from here. If you don't mind shall I pick her up, Mr.Knight?" I just nodded at him. He has been our driver since my father started working.
At the park, there were so many children playing with their parents and their dear ones. I will maybe have a happy life like them without dwelling on the past that gave me a permanent scar on my heart. Everyone wants to be a child under their parent's care who makes them feel secure and safe.
My thoughts were snapped out because of a cry. There was a blonde kid crying and running in the park. He was cute even when he was crying. There stood a girl with perfect black hair with a petite figure. I cannot see her face because her back was facing me. Without my conscience, I went towards them. When I went near them...
She started singing with her beautiful voice...
Hakuna Matata!What a wonderful phraseHakuna Matata!Ain't no passing craze It means no worriesFor the rest of your daysIt's our problem-free philosophyHakuna Matata! Why, when he was a young warthogWhen I was a young wart-hoooog!Very nice!Thanks!
She twirled around quickly making probably making funny faces at the kid because he laughed at her still his eyes glistening from tears.
Hakuna Matata!What a wonderful phraseHakuna Matata!Ain't no passing crazeIt means no worriesFor the rest of your daysYeah, sing it, kid!It's our problem-free philosophyHakuna Matata!Hakuna MatataHakuna MatataHakuna MatataHakunaIt means no worriesFor the rest of your daysIt's our problem-free philosophyHakuna Matata!
The sun grazed her shiny beautiful skin making it more beautiful. Her hair looked silkier under the sun. I had this strange urge to touch her and feel her.
What the hell am I thinking?
The kid laughed at her. She was something. The way she interacted with the kids made me smile at her. When I neared her to see her face, she walked away with the kids laughing. Her laugh was contagious which bought a slight smile to my face.
While I was drowned in my thoughts, William snapped me out of my thoughts.
"Mr.Knight, Can we go?"
"Where's your kid?" I questioned him.
"She seems to be having a nice time with that lady over there." He pointed to the girl who sang.
" So, I left her with some more time. I will come back later and pick her up, Mr.Knight." I nodded. One part of my heart never wanted to leave and ask her to sing for me, but it would be a shittier thing to do for an unknown man. She is already occupying my mind. I need to get that thought out of my mind. With that, we left there without seeing her face. I wish I had seen her face.
Oh, I forgot! I forgot to introduce myself.
Myself Liam Knight, CEO of Knight Industries. Owing to most of the hotels and industries all over the world are complex but everything was my dad and my hard work. He trusted me and handed over the company to me.
My dad is Andrew Knight. He is my support and pillar of me. He taught me everything and supported my decision. My mom Janet Knight, is the sweetest person ever. I love her so much. Both my mom and dad are perfect. My little sister Emily Knight is the most annoying person ever. Whenever I come to meet them she annoys the hell out of me. But as a big brother, I am protective of her. She is pursuing architecture. My family includes Aiden who is my childhood best friend, such a tease and always keeps bragging to me about anything. He is my business partner too. He is the only person capable of handling the angry monster in me. Everything is perfect, but the thing of mistrust of other people is a thing I can not forget about it.
Yay!!!!!!! Finally, I'm posting the first episode of my story after so much of thinking and editing it. I hope you all loved this chapter. If there are any mistakes do correct me and am glad and waiting to learn from you guys. Thank you, everyone! Love you all!!! Do vote and comment and share your views!
ATHENA'S P.O.V: "Get your ass out of here!" Oliver shouted at me. Currently I am working as his personal assistant. I started working for him as soon as I finished my medical degree. Pretty well, he doesn't want me to work in a hospital preventing me from achieving my dreams. I know why because I deserve it from him. No one knows what I have gone through or going through. I hate working for him to the hell. But still I deserve it. Nobody cares except for myself. My parents they were the worst I have ever had they broke all my happiness and turned me as a broken one as in like now. I just can't get them out of my mind. Everything was fine until my biological father died in an accident. I was so much devasted . That was the time when my mother Melissa married my father's friend Oliver Greene and I just hate them to the core. I thought that my mother loved me but she turned out to be cruel after my sisters death.
LIAM'S P.O.V: Today was the most frustrating day ever.... Owing most of the companies, hotels and investments all over the world is the most frustrating and tired of all the other jobs. Perks of being a CEO. Even though being a CEO with handful of work I can't forget her voice and I wanted to hear that voice again and again. I want to hear her speak and sing for me. Wait what!? For me?! I must have gone insane . Seriously! Liam you really need to clear your mind.
ATHENA'S P.O.V: Tears filled my eyes and my vision blurred. I begged him to stop but eventually he didn't. I just looked up in pain and cried out loud. Crying, that's what I can do till now for all these abuses. My step-father was the one hurting me to the hell and of course my own mother just stares at me in a pitying. I just hate that. I cried because the people whom I thought they love me are hurting me. I can't do anything but cry. I cried trying to get off the strong hold around my neck. I begged. "I'm sorry!" My weak voice croaked. "How dare you ruin my meeting with that fucking mouth of yours!" He s
LIAM'S P.O.V: I was pissed was an understatement. How the fuck they make me wait here for about 20 minutes. What the heck they are doing.!? Fuck the meeting. Fuck the deal. Of course I read the agreement but the profit percentage was low . How even I agreed to this company? With that abruptly I left the meeting and while I was about reach the elevator someone bumped into me. I was already enraged but when I look up to whom I bumped.... I saw her most beautiful black orbs containing so much of emotions, secrets...probably fear of something. Her eyes have the deepest black
ATHENA'S P.O.V: I'm tired and tired of everything the only thing that holds me is her. I wanted justice for her. But nothing gonna happen with my own misery. After suffering for 3 years I'm still a mess. Everything seems to be difficult for me. Each and every minute of life was a curse for me because of what I caused to happen. Only because of me she lost it. I blamed myself for this shit! While I was thinking deeply Avery's voice boomed into my ears. "Yo girl , I know you had a bad day. What can I do to make my Shortcake to cheer up!" She wiggled her eyebrows playfully. She tapped thoughtfully on her chin. I know she would come up with an idea that I would never agree. Suddenly her face lit up.
LIAM'S P.O.V: All I did was thinking about her. Something about her intrigued me. I don't know whether is it attraction or whatever I don't care. Her gaze held so much that I couldn't understand. That too when that bastard rudely behaved towards her. Whatever am gonna do is going to be the craziest. She has the same figure of the unknown girl. Maybe she is her. If she is her I'm not gonna leave her and definitely I will make her mine. I've gone crazy just by not hearing her voice. I decided myself that I should give a second chance myself . I just wanted to clear my mind. Interrupting my thoughts there was a knock on
ATHENA'S P.O.V: "Athena just kill me, I can't bear the pain anymore please!" She pleaded with the teary eyes. Her face is bruised with some cuts with blood flowing away. While I stood there doing nothing . Crying and begging those cruel people was my only way to stop, but they didn't even acknowledge me. She was lying there like a living corpse body full of bruises and cuts along with blood oozing out of them. I begged them. "Please leave us we'll never ever do anything like this. Leave her she had enough!" I was begging , crying and pleading. But everything went in vain. A harsh slap was planted across my cheek and I was pushed
LIAM'S P.O.V: After a long time I had a dreamless sleep because of her. I have decided to make her mine. I know I was the guy who never give shit about girls or anyone unless it makes sense to me. I was selfish and I was drowning in my own world after her. Of course because of my money, girls throw themselves at me. I don't even acknowledge them. I never even acknowledge any girl. My trust was broken after so much of pain I have gone through. I became cold and distant from everyone. I worked hard and hard till I became as a CEO. I drowned myself in work and made myself busier so that I can't think about her. But everything about the past changed by Athena.
