"Love is an irresistible desire to be irresistibly desired."-Robert Frost-***It was a day Ana wished had never arrived, she woke up that morning feeling heavy, unable to move her body mentally from the bed. It was only until Alexander knocked on her door did she managed to head over to take shower and changed her clothes. Since it was a rather casual visit, she decided to settle with a pale beige pink silk top and some white trousers topped with matching beige coat that she would take off immediately once she was there because the coat did not match very well with her silk blouse. Once she was done getting ready, she walked out from her room to the dining room while Alexander was following her from the back like usual. That morning no one see

"I think it is possible for ordinary people to choose to be extraordinary."-Elon Musk-***The snow was starting to pile up in front of Mikhail Orlovsky’s penthouse building. He made a mental list to call the staff to clean up the road later. Right then he just wanted to be comfortable at the warmth of his living room. It was very rare for him to have a leisure time like that where he did not have to do or worry about anything. A luxury for a workaholic lawyer in high demand who always had cases to do and go through with. Dressed casually in his light blue shirt and jeans, he drank his first shot of vodka to warm himself up while being seated beside the window. From there he could see the view of the city at night with the light from the

"Without that freedom to sin, there is also no freedom to love."-Peter Kreeft-***There were many reasons why someone would go against the authority and one of the reason was when their freedom was violated. In her case Ana found it difficult to just remain silent about everything when her father asked her to go on vacation alone with Anton, even made an agreement about it without her permission. She had previously wondered why her father would call her so early in the morning before breakfast, it was quite unusual that even Alexander was curious about it. She was still in her night gown when she went to visit her father who was drinking a glass of water in the living room. When she found out about the real reason she was beyond shocked. It wa

"How a kidnapping ends depends to a large degree on who the kidnappers are."-Giuliana Sgrena-***Ana felt a strange vibration around her that had started to disturb her sleep, she felt the cold air from the AC falling right on her blanket covered chest. Unable to stand the uncomfortable combination any longer she slowly fluttered her eyes open and was immediately surprised when she saw Anton sitting on a chair right across her.She reflexively sat up from the bed only to find out that she was no longer in Galina’s bedroom, instead, when she looked around her she realized that she was inside of a private jet. She knew it was a private jet because she had been in one before. The jet had a built in bedroom inside which meant it probably belonged to Anton or one of his oligarch friend. It did not take her long to understand the situation. She pulled the blanket away and thank heaven she was still wearing the same pajamas she

"A calm mind brings inner strength and self confidence."-Dalai Lama-***She did not know how she ended up there but suddenly she arrived at a four-star hotel in Iceland which had previously booked by Anton. He chose to go with the presidential suite which offered the best luxury services during their stay. She thought it might be because she was coming with him that he settled with the best but she forgot that Anton himself had always accepted only the best things.Their private butler helped to carry their luggage and once they were settled in, he left until they needed him. At the end it was just Anton and Ana. Anton had to do some business when he was in there but he had planned a schedule for the two of them beforehand. Anton knew Ana was not much of a nature person, he himself also preferred to stay away from any activities that had higher chance of killing him like hiking or exploring the caves or volcano, thus he settled
