It's My Turn To Use Ethan

Anastasia hesitated to continue as she turned to her father. Dimitri gave her a thumbs-up to keep going. Smiling secretly, Anastasia began to fake-cry, sniffing as she stammered, "I... I don't know how to tell you this, Ethan. It's just..."Ethan grew apprehensive. He didn't like Anastasia's tone; the Anastasia he knew was always strong and never cried without a major reason. Something terrible must have happened. "Just what, Anna? Trust me, you can tell me anything."Anastasia sniffled again. "Next week is my grandfather's birthday, Ethan, and my dad is pressuring me to bring a wealthy partner. The entire family is treating me like trash, calling me useless. I'm so tired, Ethan. All because of a man?"Ethan was dumbfounded. He had always assumed Anastasia was completely spoiled by her father. The Dimitri he saw at their graduation seemed wrapped around his daughter's finger. How had he changed so suddenly? "But why are they pressuring you to bring a suitor? You just graduated—isn't i

Don't Call Elijah

Ethan stood there in silence as the reality of what he had just promised dawned on him. He face-palmed in frustration. "Why did I say yes? How on earth am I going to convince Damien now?"He sat down, letting out a long sigh, but then he shook his head. "No, I have to do this for Anna. She has done too much for me to just ignore her when she needs help."Taking a deep breath to calm his nerves, he stood up and walked into the guest room he had been staying in. He put on a pair of jeans and a clean top. He also took the time to trim his overgrown beard. He wasn't entirely sure why he was suddenly caring so much about his appearance, but deep down, he wanted to look good for Damien. He didn't want Damien to think his life had become a complete mess since their fallout.Once he was ready, he walked out of the house and hailed a cab.As he arrived at the company, Ethan felt a wave of anxiety wash over him. Walking into the reception area, he couldn't help but feel incredibly nervous. He vi

Damien It's Me

Ethan took a deep breath, trying to calm his racing heart. It's just a passcode, right? No need to panic. He glanced back to see if the receptionist was still waiting. She was. When they made eye contact, he offered her another small smile, which she quickly returned.As he turned back to the keypad, he didn't notice the faint blush on her cheeks. She had been admiring him from the moment he walked in. Staring at his back, she couldn't help but wonder how he had managed to charm their notoriously cold boss. Even after seeing the press conference video, she hadn't believed the negative rumors for a second. She just had a gut feeling that there was still something deep between them.Looking at Ethan's broad shoulders and his neatly styled blonde hair, she thought dreamily, He's so handsome. I really don't blame the boss at all.Her starry-eyed admiration was a complete contrast to what Ethan was actually feeling. He was practically begging her to leave in his head. Why is she still stan

Go On A Date With Anastasia

Ethan stared at Damien, taking in his appearance. His eyes lingered on Damien's well-defined face before settling on the beard he had grown. It looked strange to Ethan because he had never seen Damien with a beard before. Still, he couldn't deny that it made him look even more attractive. The beard gave him a more mature look, making Ethan blush just by looking at him.Damien, on the other hand, couldn't hide his surprise at seeing Ethan standing in his office. He quietly watched as Ethan's eyes wandered over him.When he noticed that Ethan had no intention of speaking or looking away, Damien cleared his throat."Ahem."Ethan immediately snapped out of his thoughts. Realizing he had been staring at Damien for far too long, he quickly looked away in embarrassment."I'm sorry. I zoned out for a moment."Inside, however, he wanted to slap himself.Yeah, right. You zoned out because of his handsome face, he thought. He had no idea how Damien had become even more charming. He looked so att

I'll Go With Her To The Party

Damien’s expression darkened, and he looked at Ethan with total disgust .He pointed a finger at him. "So, you know about it?"Ethan raised an eyebrow, completely confused. "Knew about what? Look, I know it seems a bit absurd that I'm asking you for this, but she needs a date really badly. Just let me explain first before you decide."Damien stared at Ethan's pleading expression. He forced himself to calm down, leaning back into his leather chair. "Okay. Explain."Ethan was surprised Damien was actually willing to listen, but he knew he couldn't waste his luck. He cleared his throat and began. "So... Anastasia's grandfather is pressuring her to bring a suitor to his party."Damien cut in, his voice laced with annoyance. "And how is that my business?"Ethan sighed. "Just wait, I'm getting to that part."Damien kept his eyes fixed on Ethan. He thought he knew exactly where this story was heading, and he felt certain that Ethan had been deceived by his friends yet again.Ethan continued,
