Sitting inside the living room of his grandiose mansion, she's waiting for him to come. Her eyes wandered on the interior of the majestic room as she sat on the divan. Everything around her was expensive and elegant in an exceptional manner. The marvellous crystal chandelier hanging at the centre was illuminating the room effortlessly, adorning it with grace and royal glimmers. The place was astonishingly magnificent and it was telling much about its owner. Her eyes went to the huge window that covered the south of the room. The silk curtains framed the glass window perfectly. Emma walked towards the window, arms crossed over her chest. Her gaze settled on the breathtaking sight, the rows of skeletal trees crowned in crimson, swaying gently to the frosty wind. The elegant marble fountain stood at the threshold with sparkling water falling in the huge pool adding to the beauty of the view. Emma could clearly hear the soft burbling of water that was resonating in the eerie silence. The

Beautiful chandeliers were lighting up the whole place. Emma was sitting quiet and troubled. It's getting really late. She couldn't even inform Mina about this. Her eyes began looking for him and found him at last. He was leaning against the bar counter, a puff of smoke leaving his lips before he held the cigarette between his fingers. Emma could see his lips moving as he talked with another man dressed in a white suit. The men kept glancing her way while talking, making her feel as if they were talking about her. Emma straightened up and ordered another glass of water. Shortly after the lights went dim and that adorable couple she met earlier walked to the centre holding hands. As soon as the music rippled, they began moving. Dancing slowly, bodies close to each other, eyes full of love. Emma smiled looking at them. How beautiful their bond was. She had no idea why but she looked up at his side again and found him already looking at her. It wasn't a coincidence. He was actually stari

Jaws clenched, muscles tense, he looked at her ravaged state with fury in his eyes. Those grey eyes that once used to reflect affection and care for her were now filled with hatred and anger. An intimidating smirk adorned his face as he wiped the blood near his lips with his thumb. Kevin looked at the blood smudged on his thumb and then he looked at her. Angrily. Furiously. Bitterly.She didn't just slap him, she slapped his manly ego which he valued the most. And they say a man's ego is as fragile as a woman's heart and there's no way Kevin would let this matter slip. Forget this insult. Her rejection.Nobody has ever raised their voice while talking to him and the girl he thought was naive and innocent slapped him in front of everyone. He's shaking in wrath. Just because she was a woman he was holding himself from hitting her or doing something far worse. They both looked at each other silently holding each other's gaze for a few seconds. Her teary eyes had disgust for him while the

His deep eyes spoke a lot while roaming on her body ditching their shame. Emma shivered from the weird feeling of his nasty stare piercing her pride but she stood firm. However, within seconds, her body and mind became numb when she heard him say…“Strip!”She stilled, utterly confused. Rather shocked! Was there some misunderstanding or did he actually ask her to strip? Her mind spun.Emma blinked in a haze as Kevin walked closer, his tall frame hovering over her once again."Take off your clothes," he whispered, slowly this time putting pressure on each word showing he meant what he said. Emma gulped. Kevin's deep voice came off much huskier given the proximity. This closeness was alarming. Emma could even feel his hot breaths skimming the sensitive skin below her ear.Emma's big and shocked eyes looked into his grey ones. No traces of mischief in them. No flickers of the warmth and gentleness that they once used to reflect for her. They looked cold and intense. Soul piercing. Mocking

The night was falling when Emma came out of the cafe. The icy wind stroked her soft skin forcing her to wrap her arms around herself completely unaware of the storm that was coming her way. She was just a few steps away from the cafe when a limousine stopped near her, eliciting a sudden wave of panic in her. Danger, Emma could feel it. But before she could take a step back, the car's door opened and she was dragged inside harshly.For a moment, Emma couldn't process what exactly happened but then her eyes met his, and she froze. Goosebumps crept up her arms and her heart started beating violently seeing the swirls of emotions she witnessed in his deep eyes. Lust. wrath. vengeance.Why was he here again when she'd settled everything with him? He had already made her suffer, snatched her jobs, her peace. What else does he want now? "We meet again," Kevin rasped as he stretched his left hand—his eyes never leaving hers—and grabbed the glass filled with wine from the fully stocked bar ne
