Will two distinct people who don't believe in love find themselves in tangled hearts deep in love, that beats and yearns after each other or will their truth tear them apart because of their non-belie...
************** I woke up to the shrill sound of my phone alarm. Groggily, I stretched out my arm to the right side of my bed to silence it. As I glanced at the screen, I realized I’d slept through the first two alarms. Now it was 1:30 AM—far later than I intended.
"Oh my God!" I muttered. Quickly, I said a brief morning prayer before rushing to the bathroom to shower and brush my teeth. By the time I finished, it was already 1:45 AM.
Hastily, I applied my body lotion, sprayed on some perfume, and threw on a short gray dress, black socks, and white sneakers. Standing at my vanity mirror, I brushed my long, curly, brown-black hair, tying it into a loose bun with curls falling around my face. I quickly dusted on some white powder and applied lip gloss, skipping the mascara since time was slipping away. My watch now read 2:00 AM.
As I tried to finish brushing my hair, I heard a knock at the door. A feeling of dread crept over me—was Mr. Alexander’s driver already here? I wasn’t ready.
I opened the door to find Mary, the ever-polite housekeeper, smiling warmly. "Good morning, Miss Aurora. A driver is here to pick you up. He said your boss sent him."
"Good morning, Mary. Please let him know I’ll be out in a few minutes," I responded calmly, hoping to mask my rising panic.
As I closed the door, I couldn’t believe how late I was running. Mr. Alexander’s driver was punctual, as always, while I’d overslept. Quickly, I finished my hair, settling on a simple look, and left my room.
*********************** By the time I stepped outside at 2:13 AM, the driver spotted me and walked over. "Miss Aurora Devin?" he asked.
"Yes," I responded with a smile.
He promptly took my travel bag and placed it in the trunk of the sleek, luxurious car. Then, with a polite gesture, he held open the back door for me. For a brief moment, I felt like royalty, stepping into a world far removed from my own. The ride to the airport felt like a scene from a fairy tale, with the plush interior and smooth ride adding to the experience.
********************* We arrived at the private airport, where the car parked near a jet. A friendly cabin crew member greeted me and carried my bag on board.
Stepping inside the jet, I was speechless. The interior was breathtaking...elegant browns and creamy whites adorned the space, exuding opulence. The crew showed me to my seat, which faced another chair with a polished table between them, and a long, luxurious couch on the opposite side.

Curiosity got the best of me, and I asked the cabin crew member if Mr. Alexander was on board.
"Yes, Mr. Alexander is here. He’s in the inner cabin, making some private calls. He’ll join you shortly," she said with a warm smile.
"Thank you," I replied, taking my seat.
********************* A few minutes later, Mr. Alexander emerged, carrying a laptop and a dark corporate file. He was still on a call, speaking in a calm yet firm tone, but what caught my attention was that he was speaking Spanish. I found myself intrigued—how many languages did this man speak?
Without glancing at me, he took the seat directly across from mine, continuing his conversation. I couldn’t help but steal a quick glance at him. Dressed casually in light blue jeans that perfectly matched his piercing blue eyes, a sleeveless white shirt, and a black cotton jacket, he looked effortlessly handsome. Lost in thought, I remembered my shawl and realized I might need it if the plane got cold.
I rummaged through my handbag, hoping I’d packed it, but to my dismay, it wasn’t there...How could I have forgotten my shawl?...I scolded myself quietly.
"You seem uneasy. Did you find what you were looking for?" came a deep, familiar voice. Startled, I looked up to see Mr. Alexander’s intense blue eyes fixed on me.
"No, sir," I stammered. "It’s nothing. Just my shawl." My voice was barely above a whisper as I rushed through the explanation.
"Well, it had better not be an issue. You were already late, and now you’ve forgotten your shawl." His tone was firm, his expression unchanged. "I rescheduled the takeoff to accommodate your delay. Be punctual next time," he said, before turning his attention to the documents in front of him.
"I’m so sorry, sir. It won’t happen again," I said apologetically, but he didn’t acknowledge my words. Instead, he handed me a document from the file and instructed me to review it before we discussed it.
*************************** Moments later, the cabin crew informed us that the plane was ready for takeoff. We followed the safety procedures, and soon, we were in the air.
******♡****** ******♡******
Halfway through the flight, I woke up from an unplanned nap. I realized I’d dozed off after lunch. The food had been exquisite...truly fit for the wealthy....and Mr. Alexander had spoken to me only when necessary, focusing strictly on work.
But to my surprise, I wasn’t cold. I felt warm, almost comforted, wrapped in the scent of Mr. Alexander....Am I dreaming?.... I wondered. Slowly, I opened my eyes and touched my shoulders. I wasn’t imagining things...I was covered by his black cotton jacket.
...Did Mr. Alexander cover me while I slept?...I thought, astonished by the gesture.
I decided to thank him, but there was no sign of him. I asked the cabin crew, and she told me he was resting in the inner cabin and would join me in an hour.
For some reason, the thought of seeing him again made me both anxious and excited. Why did I feel this way? I needed to control these emotions. After all, he was just my boss, and I couldn’t afford to complicate things.
Pushing those thoughts aside, I focused on the documents we’d reviewed earlier, preparing for our next discussion.
