"Where is she?"
"Master, she is here in the mansion. She is loading her things on her car."It was the voice of Mrs. Lin, the housekeeper of the mansion he had never visited once for the whole year he was married. Even if his grandpa had threatened to hit him and to scold him every day, Dion never took a step into that house.However, that didn't mean that he didn't try before. His heart always followed unconsciously the road towards that mansion when he was tired and distracted. It was the place she lived, the woman that had been in his mind for so many years. She was there, inside the house for the two of them. But she was not meant for him. He knew it... and he hated her for that.He decided to stay in his luxurious apartment near the office, and he considered it his temporary house."Don't let her move away.""But… Young Master, I can't do that."The middle-aged woman was the only employee in the big mansion. She and Thea were the only ones living there. Therefore, they didn't use that many rooms, and so only a group of employees came to clean the mansion some days a week."Just don't let her leave, or I will fire you.""Young Master, I am also resigning," the voice of the old woman carried a sigh. She knew the problems of both of their masters. But she was old enough to care now. She only wished for her young lady, Thea, to live her life happily.The face of Dion went blank, now he didn't have anyone on his side to stop her before she left.The damn woman never went to the Civil Office where his employees were waiting to ambush her, instead, she went to the mansion and started packing her things.He pressed the pedal in his sports car to reach, as fast as possible, the mansion and trap her and bind her to him again.The lump in his throat made him have trouble breathing. The anxiousness in his eyes mixed with fear, he knew that he was letting something important go away from him.When he arrived at the Mansion, the door was wide open and nobody was inside."Thea!" he shouted, but only an echo returned. "Dammit!"The place was the same as he remembered as if no one had lived there for the past year. The same pictures hanging on the walls, the same furniture without an inch of dust.He went up the stairs and into the master bedroom. It was intact. No one had lived there for a year. Even his closet was untouched and the book he started reading a year ago was still there opened on the same page.'That woman, didn't she sleep here?'More pain came to his heart. He opened the other rooms, and he was stunned when he discovered that only the last room, the furthest one from the main bedroom was a bit different, the air smelled fragrant and fresh, just like her.He caressed the covers for a few seconds and was in a daze, remembering her beautiful gaze.Then his phone rang, waking him up from his distraction."Master, we got her.""Take her to my apartment," he smirked and went running to his car. 'I got you, woman.'******"Let go of me!"Thea was about to enter the Civil Office building when several black-suited men detained her just as she was about to cross the glass door. Then they made her enter a black car with tinted windows.She tried to escape many times, hitting the doors and sending several punches to them, but they dared to handcuff her wrist on her back. However, not once did they hit her.When she saw the place they were taking her, her anger reached new levels.'What does he want now? He should be jumping in happiness now, even his woman was with him. Is he trying to mock me by showing his affair to my face?'She knew that woman very well. The famous Rose Grey, the best actress, and model of the Country T. She was acclaimed as the National Beauty and the best match to the cold Empire CEO. However, Thea knew her other side very well, she was her childhood friend and cousin from many years ago. Thea treated her like the sister she never had, so her betrayal was something she could never see coming. Rose Grey and her family made her lose everything and the only way to save her mother and her from entirely fell into the abyss was to do Grandpa Hesse biddings, and marry Dion Hesse. Only that way she would survive and get her revenge.She gritted her mouth and stopped fighting. It was no use, she will do whatever he wanted and then go. She had many plans now, and staying married to that man was for sure not one of them.The men stopped the cars in the underground parking lot and one of them took her to the top floor of the complex. It was an extremely luxurious penthouse, with a few expensive and modern pieces of furniture and a wide terrace, and a swimming pool. The decor wasn't extravagant, but reflected the good taste of the owner. The view of the city was marvelous, she could only imagine how the man lived here.They made her seat on the couch, and she didn't move an inch, but noticed how another man was carrying her bags and put them near the entrance.'Just, what are they doing?'"Hey you, where is my car?""Your car is in the parking lot, Madam.""Madam?" She chuckled, no one of his employees dared to call her that, or they would receive a severe punishment. "Don't call me that if you value your job."The man didn't talk and just stood up behind her, unmoving."Can you take the handcuffs? They are hurting me."He stood there waiting."Hey! I want to go to the bathroom."He didn't answer."Do you want me to do it here? Your Boss would certainly scold you."The man frowned a little and was about to move when the door opened.The man took his time entering the room. It was slow, as if he was a predator looking at his little and delicious prey. Then he smirked at her cute but angry eyes and puffed cheeks."Get out," his voice was deep and commanding. It sent a shiver to Thea's back. The bodyguard bowed in a respectful manner and went out. However, before he could close the door, Dion spoke again."Don't let anyone disturb us. No one is allowed to enter.""Yes, sir," the bodyguard went out after closing the door. Then silence. Thea looked at Dion with anger, but somehow, inside her, a strange hope was growing. She gulped. Then she saw his smirk. "What do you want?! Let me out right now!""No," his calm voice followed him as he made his way to the minibar. His movements were slow and careful as he chose a bottle of wine. Red wine. "This will be good for today... our wedding anniversary, don't you think?""What?! Are you crazy? Let me go!""I said no," he smirked while uncapping
He kissed her so much that it was hard to breathe. He had always wanted her, only she, for years, but she never noticed. Not only that, but he had always thought she ignored him on purpose.He moved down to her breasts and lower taking off her panties and digging his mouth inside making her scream in delight. She didn't fight him."No… stop…. Ahh!" He didn't stop as her moans lured him to continue even more. Then he stood up while looking at her mouth panting breathless, her black, soft hair was sprawled on the white couch and some drops of sweat were covering her forehead. He waited for her to calm a bit until their eyes were fixed on each other. There was a question hidden in his eyes, maybe more than a question, but a plea. She nodded and let him continue. It was not only him who felt as if the desire they had accumulated in their hearts was overflowing. There was only an explosion waiting to erupt and set them free. "Dion..." she w
Thea looked at the man that had a shocked face. The voice of Rose woke her up from her little romantic fantasy. 'What was I thinking? This man is not mine. He already has his Rose.'"I can't do this anymore," she looked at him with a pale and sad expression. "This is a mistake, Dion, please let me go.""Why?"He looked at her with pained eyes, the redness of his eyes and the hardened jaw was making an effort to not explode at her.Just a few seconds ago she was eager to be his, she even took her clothes for him and consented to give her all to him. Why is she doing this now? They would have become a couple like any other. They will live together, and they will start over, just a bit more if she was willing to give her heart to him and forget her greediness.However, her expression and words made all those fantasies shatter like little pieces of glass. "Answer me!"She looked at him with a pained expression, "because we don't love each other. I don't lov
"Where is that damn boy?!"The inside of the Hesse Side Mansion was in total chaos. The Old Madam had tried to reach her grandson for a while, but Dion never answered nor let anyone disturb him for the whole night.When she went to his apartment building, she was en denied entry, and her calls were disconnected each time. The worst was when her ex-husband didn't help her at all. He kept negating any knowledge of some divorce between Thea and Dion. However, she knew very well that the elders had given their approval, and she wanted to use this time to make Rose the next Mrs. Hesse."Don't worry, Grandma, I believe he had something important going on. This can wait for a little, after all, he is already…"The young woman by her side was trying to calm her and pose as a gentle lady with her sweet words and kind manners, but the sight of this morning was worrying her, and it was easily shown in her frown. 'What if he is looking for that woman? No&h
Thea woke up feeling tired. The night before was plagued with a heavy headache, and she didn't get to rest well. Her eyes felt swollen and even her throat was not in a good state. She woke up to her body hurting, and her skin burning. She wanted to take a refreshing shower and cool her body down but she was all weak. "I need to get out of here," she whispered. However, she knew it won't be easy. Dion must have posted guards everywhere, even more, she didn't have a way to call for help, or crack the security password of the entrance. Another headache rose to her mind. Still, she mustered all of her energy in her legs to walk to the shower, at least she will wash away the sweat and the feeling of his mouth and tongue. Somehow, she still felt his fingers navigating her skin and she didn't know why, but she didn't hate the feeling. His eyes at that time... they were focused on her and his desire was evident."I should stop thinking of it."For many minutes, she tri
"Dion!"The old woman with blue bright eyes similar to his shouted with a displeased tone."You unfilial brat!""What is your business with me, grandma?""The divorce...""Whose divorce?""Don't try to confuse me, you know what I am talking about. You and that woman had already divorced, the elders had given their approval, and Rose...""I am not divorced.""What?""I didn't get any divorce, grandma," he turned to see the two women that were so shocked that they couldn't say a word, "and I won't."The sound of the elevator interrupted their dazed state, however, before they could do anything, Dion had already left."No," Rose started, "Grandma, he... she must have done something. She must have schemed to make him stay with her. Yesterday, they were..."The old woman knew what Rose was trying to say. That woman must have used shameless ways to have him under control."Don't worry, girl," she narrowed her eyes, "she won't last long. I will make s
Thea was again in the room, naked, the window was open and the curtain was waving with the soft cold breeze of the evening, however, she didn't move. The air was fresh but she didn't care. She needed the cold to stop her heart from pounding hard, she needed it to freeze her feelings for that man. Or at least the tears on her eyes.'I like your body...' his words echoed in her mind. The burning hands that touched her skin, the soft lips that took passionately her lips and her breath, even the eyes with undisguisable desire. All of that was useless to her heart.She thought about how he had left her there, just as she was willing to give her body to him, as he desired. However, it turned out that he wasn't interested now. 'I am pathetic.' ***Dion stood outside the room, his back leaning on the door. His hand covering his eyes. He knew he committed a big mistake, a huge one, he left her there again without an explanation and making her misunderstand. He wa
The kitchen was lightened with the skilled movements of a handsome man in a black apron. Dion moved around like a master, swiftly cutting the vegetables, heating the soup, and only after tasting the heated porridge and after he regarded the dishes as good enough, he carefully placed the dishes on the tray. However, just before he could take a step to the stairs, he saw the face of a young cute woman with her head between her hands looking at him with interest.For a brief second, he thought he was dreaming, however, when he noticed her careful eyes and a small smile, he blushed. "Thea, what are you doing here? You should be resting."He sounded like a caring old mom, and she laughed. "I wanted to go to the bathroom," she said.He frowned and took her in his arms and into a princess hug. "You should have waited for me, I would have taken you there."The sudden movement made her heart flush, she pushed her face to his chest and inhaled the soft aroma of his body. S
