Chapter 11 - A Kiss in the Rain

Heavy rain poured outside the steakhouse while she could barely hear the music due to the howling winds and downpour. She looks at Cronous with his head down whilst drinking whiskey, not even realizing she's been staring for straight minutes. Zaria clasped her hands together and sighed heavily, thoughts weighing in her mind. The atmosphere was no longer light, it was serious and heavy like something was missing. Her eyes landed on the table where the food was served along with a chocolate cake in the middle. It was too odd, “Why would you choose to go here today?” It was only a whisper and Cronous could barely hear anything as the rain was too heavy. Though, he looked up and his warm, yearning eyes landed on hers. Chills ran down her spine and she looked away. “Did ‘ya say something?” he asked with a smile and she shook her head. Cronous placed the whiskey down and leaned back on his chair. He admired her from head to toe, just like the first time he saw her. “You don't have to kee

Chapter 12 (18+) - A Rainy Day

The hammering and lashing sound of the rain against the walls and roof masked the sounds of muffled, heavy moans inside the mansion. Each touch of his fingers on her delicate skin makes her body heat up in ways she hasn't felt before. It felt like he was caressing something so precious that one wrong touch, it breaks. He was gentle and careful yet stared at her with lust filled eyes. “Cronous…” she whispered while staring at his hungry eyes like he could devour her. His hands travelled from her shoulder down to her chest, lightly pressing on her figure. Her clothes clinging onto her body from the icy cold rain. Her face twitched while his hands pressed against her nipples. Her mind contemplated whether it’s right to do this or not yet her body won’t listen. “You like that, huh?” His face had a playful smirk before he pressed her against the wall, pinning her hand above her head. He looked down on her face dripping from rain, her eyes fierce yet her peach colored lips trembled. He p

Chapter 13 - Scandal

Zaria felt a heavy blanket wrapped around her body as she slowly woke up from her deep sleep. Her body felt like it was aching while she tried stretching her legs and arms. She yawned loudly while trying to remember what she did until she looked to her side and saw a man sleeping next to her. “What–” Suddenly, she remembered the events of what happened last night. Her face flushed and she covered her face, how did things end up the way it did? “How did it turn out like this?” Baffled, she questioned her life choices. They were outside of the steakhouse and kissed under the rain, their emotions and adrenaline running high at the moment until they reached his mansion again. She didn’t even drink alcohol yet their emotions got the best of them. She scooted away but his arms that were wrapped around her waist pulled her closer. “Good morning,” he whispered and she felt his breath on the nape of her neck. The palm of her hand pressed against his chest as she tried to push him away. “I’m

Chapter 14 - Dominance

The two men fighting for one woman only escalated the moment Clyde walked in for this project proposal meeting with the higher ups. There, in the middle of the room, sat Cronous who had his arms crossed staring daggers towards Clyde. Cronous had a playful smirk on his lips while Clyde was seething with anger, gritting his teeth yet holding back. “Mr. Akurst? Please proceed with your proposal,” the panel interrupted their staring contest. Clyde sighed heavily and composed himself, going with his project proposal with professionalism. Everyone’s eyes were on him while he couldn’t help but only focus on Cronous who was staring at him grimly. An hour passed and he finally concluded what he had to say. “I think this will greatly benefit all parties,” he finally concluded. Before anyone else commented, a slow clap was heard from the middle of the room. All eyes turned to Cronous, who was slowly clapping and nodded his head. “What an excellent proposal,” he said in a low but playful tone.

Chapter 15 - Theatened

Zaria was gazing outside the window, watching the birds fly near the windows. It’s no surprise that animals enjoy visiting this vast estate as half of it is a huge garden with many trees as shade. She was fidgeting in her seat while checking the reports on her phone. “I hope he didn’t recognize me…” She sighed heavily before leaning back. On the far distance of the massive entryway, she saw Cronous’ familiar car driving inside. The side of her lips lifted before she realized what she did. “Why did I smile?” she slapped her cheeks and shook her head. A few minutes later, there was a knock on her door. Cronous greeted her with a smile after she opened it for him. “Hey, darling.” He flashed a sly smirk, his eyes like a hungry wolf. His eyes scanned her face, down to her body, before biting his lips. Zaria, on the other hand, looked at him in horror. “What happened to your face?!” she placed her hand under his chin while on her tippy toes to check on him. His face, usually pristine like

Chapter 16 - Intruder

CYLDE splashed his face with cold water while looking at his ruined face marked with bruises and cuts from his struggle with Cronous. His back bruised up from hitting the chairs and floor, but his ego was hit even harder. “Who does he think he is?” He went back to his living room and sat down on the sofa, while piles of broken items scattered across the floor. He grabbed what could comfort him, alcohol. Hours on end he’d be hammered everyday, and now Zaria has been taken by her ex-lover. “Fucking son of a bitch,” he murmured to himself, pouring himself another drink. After passing out for a few hours and waking up again, he suddenly had a bold idea. Take his wife back by himself and no one to stop him. With this desperation, he hopped in his car and drove all the way back to the monster’s den. Cronous’ estate. He parked a few blocks away before heading to the far end of the gate and trying to look inside. Stumbling on bushes, he managed to climb up a tree to see if there was any

Chapter 17 - Comfort

ZARIA who woke up from her sleep saw Cronous walking out of the mansion from her window. She watched as his pace picked up while heading to the direction of the entrance. An ominous feeling crept in and her heart pounded loudly. When he was out of sight, she couldn’t help but worry. She looked up at the dark sky and snuggled herself on a chair while waiting for him to come back. While scrolling on her phone, she noticed that the scandal of their date was still circulating online. “I wonder if he recognized it was me…” Anxiety made her bite her fingernails, afraid a much larger issue might happen if Clyde already found out. Comments about them were split. Many are curious who the woman who captured the cold heart of Cronous Fauler was, while others criticized the secret relationship and called her names. Her heart sank as she stared at her screen for a long time, taking in all the insults to heart. Her eyes were empty while she didn’t notice she paused breathing. She glanced back ou

Chapter 18 - Leak

Hours after the hottest news spread about the adultress who’s playing two wealthy men spread, the articles slowly disappeared like nothing happened. While scrolling on his phone, Cronous saw Zaria walk into the living room, still half-asleep. He couldn’t help but chuckle with the way she looked. “Stop,” she said in annoyance. Her eyes were evidently puffy while her hair resembled that of a bird’s nest. “You seem awfully calm. This is really serious,” she uttered in annoyance, the anxiety of what happened still within her. Cronous handed her the tablet he was holding and she saw how there were no more talks about her. “What?” she questioned while double checking.

Chapter 19 - Heartbreak

(Flashback) “Baby…” Zaria whispered lovingly as she kissed Cronous’ cheeks. He looked at her doe eyes shining brightly under the sunlight. She raised her hand, staring at the diamond encrusted ring wrapped around her ring finger. “When should our wedding be now that we're engaged?” she asked, clinging on his arm while sitting down at the beach. The waves before them were calm, each one sounded like a whisper. “We’ll start the preparations right away,” he said with a smile, pressing his soft lips on her forehead. “I love you, Zaria…” he whispered. “I love you too, Cronous…” she answered back.

Chapter 20 (18+) - Picnic

The scent of roses filled the air as the breeze brushed against Zaria’s skin. She looked around in the garden, butterflies flying around and landing on the thorn-filled bed of roses. Her floor length white dress dragged on the green field, slightly shining from the sunshine. In a far distance, she can see Cronous setting up a blanket. “A picnic, huh?” she said, eyeing him curiously. He turned his head to her and smirked. He fixed the position of the blanket on the grass and placed the baskets of food on the side. He sat down on the soft fabric before tapping the spot next to him. “Come,” he said simply and she nodded her head. After sitting down, the garden roses are now on her eye level like a towering wall. Every inch and corner looked to be planned and cared for. “I didn’t think you’d be into planting roses,” she simply remarked as he took out the food he prepared. “You said you liked them. Back then…” he trailed off. Zaria glanced at him who paused on what he was doing but comp
