The days flew by quickly and uneventfully. Anastasia and Hades spoke daily in their free time and got a little close. Hades was still wary about her joining Moretti & Co., however, Anastasia reassured him again and again. It was her first day at work today and she was eager to start the internship. She was excited and was hoping she got Arthur Fabian as her mentor. He was a renowned designer and she had always admired his work. As soon as she entered the building she made her way to the receptionist"Hi, Good Morning, I'm Anastasia Kimberly, I have a meeting with Ms. Claire Dubois."The receptionist just nodded as if she was bored "10th floor to the right, her name will be mentioned on her cabin door, the elevator is on the left of this corridor," she said pointing in the direction. Anastasia just thanked her and went in the direction. 'Well, I just hope not everyone is as irritable as the receptionist' she thought to herself.Suddenly she bumped into

Third person's POV- As Hades started driving, both of them got lost in their thoughts. Anastasia was confused with her feelings towards Hades. She knew she liked spending time with him, felt safe and peaceful, but the scar from her previous life had left a great impact on her. While Hades on the other hand was trying to find a way to ask her on another date. After all this time he was still hesitant and feared her rejection. He cleared his throat mustered up the courage and spoke "Love! Do you have any work to do once you reach home?"he hoped she wasn't busy."No, I was just planning to go read and relax maybe as I'll be busy from

Anastasia walked inside looking lost, she didn't want to hurt him but this was best for both of them, she thought. She had hesitated to walk out the door but then her death played in front of her eyes like a movie, so she walked out. Cordelia saw her walking towards her room and approached her "Ana? What's wrong? Why are you crying?" She asked as if she was genuinely concerned about her but was marveling at the fact that Anastasia was crying. She didn't ask her out of concern but out of curiosity. Anastasia just looked at her with furrowed eyebrows and touched her cheek. She didn't realize that she was crying and wiped her face "Nothing! I'm tired.... I'll catch up with you later" she said blanblankly, started walking, but Cordelia had something else in mind. She grabbed her arm to stop her "Ana I'm just concerned about you. You know you can share anything with me right? I'm here for you" Ana scoffed at her, and pulled her hand out of her grip but didn't say anything. She wasn't in

After the meeting, we went to our respective workspaces. I like the theme that we chose, kind of fun since I've faced most of it. The seven deadly sins that are wrath, envy, greed, sloth, lust, pride, and gluttony are associated with different colors. I was busy sketching when Claire walked up to me and informed me that I was called in the CEO's office. Claire could see the perplexed expression on my face and she just shrugged not knowing the reason. It suddenly hit me that Lucian was the CEO, Hades had warned me about, but what does he want with me. 'Should I call Hades?' The thought crossed my mind but I ignored it completely 'No I shouldn't! I was the one who asked him to stay away...I shouldn't be bothering him with trivial matters, I thought sighing. As soon as I reached the elevator I heard someone calling me. I looked in the direction of the voice only to find Arthur running towards me "Anastasia darling where are you going? Have you started your designs?" He asked while catc

Hades and Anastasia met at a nearby café after work. Hades looked tired, as if he hadn't slept at all. Anastasia on the other hand was extremely conscious and didn’t know where to start the conversation from, all she could think was the kiss and how her heart was pounding against her chest. Hades, however, decided to break the silence eventually. He reached out to take her hand in his that was placed on the table ''I'm sorry Love…. I really am.''Anastasia was immediately disheartened because she assumed that he regretted to kiss her, but before she could respond he stopped her "Please let me finish'' she decided to hear him out first.''I appologize for lashing out on you yesterday and giving you an ultimatum. I shouldn't have done that… I could have handled the situation differently'' Ana was dumbfounded with his reason. 'I should be the one apologizing to him, he has nothing to feel sorry for. I was irrational and overreacted after the kis
