Enchanted Echoes: Balancing Passion and Responsibility
It seemed the entire city celebrated the success of the House of Hatori couture show. Words like innovative, genius, the future of fashion were bandied about. Already the women were swooning over which ones to purchase. Its been eight hours since i heard anything from Zen. I have been worried since last night since he seemed so shocked when he was on the phone. And here i couldn'd pull my the courage to make myself call him or text him about his whereabouts. He just said sorry and said bye and rushed to wherever it was. My thoughts drifted to last night- **************FLASHBACK**************** I had taken my second sip when Zen’s driver arrived at our table. The man seemed to be even larger than Zen if that was possible. I only noticed because they didn’t have the barrier of the front seat between them. What looked like the tattoo of Japanese umbrella-pine tree, kōyamaki peeked out of the man’s collar. Out of respect, he removed the cap he wore to reveal a closely shaven head the

Reconnecting Desires: Passion Rekindled
Its been days since he left me hanging again with that delicious surfs and turfs. The phone call the day after was the last I heard from him. I tried calling him many times but I was always disappointed by no answer from the other side. Time flew so fast and days got rushed for me at Mode as I was assigned a new designing assignment. Every now and then Miss. Pierce assigns me with this type of challenges. I totally forgot about not getting in touch with Zen these few days.

There were scrambled paper here and there on the floor and I was seated with no ideas that sounded exciting.As I busy working I saw Mr. Hatori coming in the office through the glass wall.

Love in the Royal Spotlight
As I opened my eyes next morning I was blissful. I felt so good about the night we spent together. As I scrolled through my room he was not in the room. The sadness crept to me as train of thoughts ran through me. Has he left me again. Is he going to disappear again. As I was busy panicking the door to my room opened. And there he was in my sweats hanging slightly lower to his hips through which I could see his bulge. He had a tray on his hands. He smiled at me as came towards me. He sat on the edge of the bed and took hold of my cheeks and placed a slight peck on my forehead. " Goodmorning beautiful" he said as he smile. "Goodmorning handsome" I blushed.I looked towards him. To my surprise how could a man look so handsome and bright right in the morning. I stared at him and he caught me. "What?" He asked confused. "Do I have something on my face" he started wiping his face. I smiled as I reached out to his cheek bones "No it's just you. You look damn gorgeous this morning Zen"An

The Royal Introduction: Dining with Nobility
The day finally came when I had to meet Zen's parents. The thought has been stressing me out since last week when I had my first Confrontation with Zen about his small secret that was hell as small as an elephant. Smiling to myself at the thought. Zen I had been together since that night going on dates. He telling me things about himself and me telling him mine. It's been nice but thought of me meeting his parents who happens to be king and queen was too much to handle for me. Zen picked me up from my apartment and he drove me this fancy restaurant with high end tables and cutleries all over the place. The interior was amazingly done. The essence of traditional feelings was kept in mind with the designs. He led me to a secluded place I guessed was a private cabin for guests. When we reached at the door Zen looked at me with a smile. "Are you okay?"he asked me. I nodded in reply. "Let's do it then" saying those he opened the door and gestured me to enter. Once we were inside I sa

The Unexpected Visitor: Confrontation with Ryeo
Zen and me reached my apartment. He walked over to me and opened the door for me. He closed the door behind me. He came closer to me and hugged me before giving a peck on my lips. "Goodbye Haru", he said to me. "Are you not staying with me tonight" I asked him. "No Haru. I have some urgent work to take care of" he answered me. I turn to walk towards my apartment. I saw the lights to my apartment on. I recalled myself switching it off before I left for the dinner with Zen's parents. I looked back at Zen as he was starting to drive way. I didn't want him to worry so I just walked to my apartment getting cautious. The thoughts running through me as how or who has broke into my apartment. I called my mom to check if she was here to see me. But to my disappointment it wasn't her. I started panicking. I thought maybe I forgot to off but as clear as I remember I switch it off. I threw the thought away as I started to unlock the door. As to my surprise it was already unlocked. As I slowly

Morning Intimacy: A Breakfast of Love and Passion
I woke up next morning on my bed. I remembered us watching tv as I dozed off. He must have carried me to bed last night. I searched for him in the place beside me on the bed and to my disappointment he wasn't there. I heard noise from the living room. I assumed him cooking for me again. I got up from my room as I wore the shirt Zen wore last night when he came to my apartment. It smelled amazing like Zen was all over it. I walked out the room and saw him on the kitchen station in my camos that were too small for him, drops of water dripping from his hair I guessed it was from the shower as he swaying his hips as he was breaking eggs into a bowl. I chuckled at the amusing sight before me. I walked towards him as he noticed me walk to him. He was checking me up and down as if he could undress me just by staring at me. "I see you've been cooking again" I said to him. "I see you're in my shirt again" he said winking. I neared him hugging him from behind as I placed a peck on the back of

I woke up to a droning roar in my forehead. The second thing I became aware of was the coppery taste in my mouth. I remembered the taste, it was chloroform. This built up fear inside me ad this wasnt the first time I have this taste or subdued by chloroform before. The one time when I was kidnapped by my dad's business rival when I was a child.I shifted in panick on whatever or whoever I was. The leather beneath me scrunched.

Reconciliation: Hearts Mended and Bonds Strengthened
When I woke up it was dark outside. The room's light was lit. I looked to the wall clock hanging in the room. It was six in the evening. I got up from the bed. Next thing I remembered was Zen calling out my name from downstairs. I literally ran out my room to see him subdued by the guys that I saw this morning at the airport. Ryeo sitting at the couch the same place where he was seated when I had asked him for the bathing stuff. "Oh my my, who do we have here?" Ryeo said in a very loud tone. "If it's not the prince itself" he added. "Ryeo where the hell is Haru?" Zen asked in anger. "Where are your manners brother. Not even greeting your elder brother" he said grinning. Zen eyes wandered all over the place till his eyes met mine I could see tears rolling down his cheeks. "Haru" he called my name in a very tainted tone. "Thank God you're ok" he added. Ryeo looked up to me. "Oh I see, Haru you have heard your love's call" he said. "Ryeo leave him" I said to him. "And why would
