Serenity And Zachary

"Katakan, berapa harga yang harus aku bayar untuk mencium bibirmu?" Pertanyaan songong Zach dibalas oleh Evelyn dengan kekehan angkuh. "Cukup dengan menyerahkan kedua bola matamu," balasnya. Dada Zach bergemuruh. Evelyn baru saja mempermainkannya. Seketika timbul rasa kesal yang begitu besar di balik rongga dada pria itu. "Kau benar-benar tidak takut mati." Ia mendesis. "Jika mati menjadi satu-satunya cara untuk terbebas darimu, maka bunuhlah aku!" tantang Evelyn. *** Kehidupan Evelyn berubah mengerikan setelah diculik oleh dua orang tak dikenal. Ia dibawa ke mansion gelap dan penuh rahasia, dikurung di ruang tahanan, lalu dilempar ke ruang harem yang dihuni oleh wanita-wanita cantik dan seksi yang merupakan selir penghangat ranjang bagi para bangsawan. Semua berawal dari penolakan Victor—ayahnya Evelyn—karena tidak mau menyuarakan dukungan terhadap Zachary Muller, seorang calon pemimpin negara sekaligus bos mafia yang bersembunyi di balik topeng politik, sehingga Zach memperalat Evelyn untuk melemahkan Victor. Dalam upaya melarikan diri, Evelyn harus mendapati kenyataan bahwa dirinya sedang mengandung janin dari sang mafia kejam dan licik tersebut. Segalanya menjadi rumit ketika Evelyn berhasil kabur dan mendengar kabar mengenai kematian ayahnya di tangan anak buah Zach. Saat tahu Evelyn hamil, Zach terus mencarinya karena merasa telah menghancurkan masa depan wanita yang tak bersalah. Akankah Zach berhasil menemukan Evelyn dan bertanggung jawab atas perbuatannya? Lalu bagaimana cara Zach memadamkan dendam dan kebencian Evelyn yang membara?

She froze, breath caught, facing the storm in his delinquent brown eyes. He leaned over her, hands gripping the rail, boxing her in. The air was thick, too heavy to breathe. Her gaze locked on his unwilling, yet unable, to look away. The closer he leaned, the harder her heart pounded. She bit her lip, nerves twitching. No matter how far she ran, he always found her. “Why do you keep chasing me?” she asked, barely above a whisper. Her voice trembled, as if volume might shatter her. He didn’t answer. Silence roared between them. His cold and expressionless never left her face. “Do you like me?” she pressed, ignoring the disinterest in his eyes. She needed something. He gave a soft tut, then brushed a strand of hair behind her ear, twirling it lazily. The touch was light, but his closeness made her pulse race. “‘Like’ is a bit heavy, Tinkerbell,” he murmured, voice low and indifferent. The nickname slipped out like smoke, mocking, yet oddly tender. He leaned in, close enough for her to feel his heat. Close enough to unravel her. But his eyes stayed dark. Empty. She swallowed hard, unsure what hid behind them. “It’s strange,” he added, voice softer now. “But you’re the first woman I’ve ever aknowledged as a lady, Snow White.” — She was the good girl. Quiet. Overlooked. Her life, a shadow. No warmth. No safety. For a moment, she thought she’d found love, someone who saw her. Someone worth clinging to. But he broke her. When he left, he took her love and her self-worth. She hated herself after that. Then she started to rebuild. And that’s when Zachary Gonzalez appeared. Mysterious. Magnetic. Dangerous. Everything she shouldn’t want.

Do you know I could sue you for assault, Miss Athena? I have lots of witnesses who could testify about it." "You, just because you are a billionaire, you think you can command me. Then you are wrong." "Of course, I could, and I would right now. Picked up all the papers on the floor and resumed reading the files." He commanded and settled back on his seat. "You cannot order me because I'm not your employee anymore." I resumed walking to the door, but the two bodyguards brought me back in front of him despite my screaming in protest. "Alex!!. "File the case against Miss Athena for assault." "Yes, Sir.". "You can't do that," "Of course, I could." Go, send me to prison. You asshole, bastard, animal, coldhearted, devil!!! Fuck you!!! "Do you have any family, Miss Athena?" Alex finds her family and makes sure... "I'll do it!!! I screamed in frustration. I crawled onto the floor and picked up all the folders and papers on the floor. "Now, resume where we stop." I hate him so much. *** Zachary Anderson, 23 years old.
