"You found me as a kid. Now let my adult self grow old with you..."
---------------------------------------------

"We'll marry as soon as we meet again."

"Pwomise?" The little girl held out her pinky finger.

The boy entwined his own pinky finger with hers and kissed her lips shyly.

"Promise."

--------------------------------------------

Two successful people with their equally giant egos... Will they be able to keep their pride aside and fulfill the promises they had made to each other? Or will their promises be burnt by their blazing pride?

26 year old Evelyn White is what you would call a perfect 10. Beautiful, confident, successful and with a mysterious air surrounding her, she is the one most would kill for. Despite her young age, she is the CEO of a famous multimillionaire company built all by herself. Everyone is intrigued by her but no one has been able to get close enough to unravel her mystery. Until he came along.

Meet Adrian Stone. The youngest billionaire. The most eligible bachelor. He is cold and ruthless to the world but has a soft corner for the beautiful Ms. White. He is content with admiring her from afar until fate brings them together as business partners. Now that he's back, he's intent on fulfilling the promise he made to her long time ago and make her do the same. 

Both of them being equally powerful magnets, watch as their hearts get attached and prides get clashed. Which one would win?

"I can help you undress" he chuckled when I stood there staring at the water that he had run for me. He held my waist and draw me closer.

"Yes love-" he slipped a hand inside the opening of the robe, gently massaging my nipple making me moan harder this time."- answer me " he added, His light green eyes burning with desires.

"C- Can you move b- back a little?" My words made him smirk and if it's even possible, he came closer. Why do I always have to stuck between him and the desk?! "Why? Am I making you nervous?" "No." I lied. Ofcourse, he was making me nervous. His eyes had the power to hold a person on his place and that's what his eyes were doing to me. "Really?" He asked, putting his hands on my waist and pulling me closer towards him. On instinct, I put my hands on his chest. I didn't like it. I didn't like the way my body was responding to his touches. "T- This is un- unprofessional." I choked out the words, but I wish I couldn't have. He brought his face closer, so close that I could feel his minty breath on my lips. My lips parted accordingly in shock. "Oh, is it?" He said, mockingly. Oh god! What have I gotten myself into? •••• Aaron Steele, the CEO of the multi billionaire Steele's Company was the eligible bachelor of 25. He always had his way among girls and having blue eyes, a chiseled jaw and a hot body, didn't help either. With new woman on her arms every other day, he was obviously not planning on falling on that cliché word also called love, but would his thoughts of not falling in love still remain the same, after meeting her? Sienna Collins was a girl of 22 with extremely shy personality. After completing her graduation, the only thing in her mind was to get a good job and settle on her own, but what she didn't expected was a job at Steele's Company. This is a story of the innocent and the sinful. Read inside to find out what happens when two persons from exactly opposite worlds collide together. #I would suggest 14+ to read this story as some part in the book contains mature scenes. ~ # 37 in Romance #12 in humor *I am not a grammer nazzy, so there would be grammatical mistakes.*

Walking through a crowd is hell. Not to mention that when she opens her big mouth to tell people what's going to happen to them, most treat her like she's crazy - even after she saves their lives. But meddling with the future has consequences, and Death is not all there is to fear. As Evelyn races to find a way to save the new transfer student from being murdered, a voice starts whispering in her ear. Someone or something lurks in the shadows. Watching. Waiting.

When You Came

A little sneak peak of the story: He then reach my sweet spot and bit it harshly but the pleasure was overpowering the pain. My hands now moved to his hair and to his back, touching him. His hands were at the hem of my shirt and he slowly slid into them, he was caressing my stomach while attacking my sweet spot. He slowly pulled back and left me whimpering. He looked at me with eyes full of lust, I'm sure mine were the same. "Noah..." I begged. "Baby, I want to make you feel good." He said in a low husking voice. God that just made my lady bits do a little dance. I was stunned and just looked at him and slightly nodded. ❤ Aurelia dreaded going on the family trip to South Korea with her family for Christmas. The main reason being her pathetic excuse of a father wouldn't be present during the trip and would much rather be chilling with his mistresses than spending time with his actual family. She went to The Village to have fun but there's where she met those alluring green eyes. From afar, he looked so mysterious but once he opened his mouth and turned out to be an arrogant asshole, Aurelia had no choice but to dismiss him. But what happens when they meet again in Seoul? Is it merely just a coincidence or fate?
