Athena Bolvard was happy.

Married to the love of her life with her career in modeling peaking, she had everything she could have ever wanted. Life was at its best. It couldn't get any better than this. That is until she finds out her husband had been straying behind her back, with none other than her husband's first love.

Alissa Myers.

Heartbroken, Athena sets out to heal the hurt Alexander has inflicted on her. She never takes into account that along the way, she may just find another person to fill the void her husband left behind in the form of  well-established artist, Ethan Haynes.

                                                       *

Ethan Haynes has never met anyone as timid yet fiercely determined as Athena -formerly Bolvard, currently Lorens, possibly future Haynes if he had any say about it- was.

There was no other word for it.

He was infatuated.

Newly divorced, he understood it would be a long while before Athena even considers opening her heart to anyone again. But that's alright.

He was fine with waiting. She was worth the wait.

He was sure of it.

All he knew was that he'd do everything in his power to ensure she won't be the one that got away.

It was my time to smirk "Of me being a distraction to your focused self." "I like your confidence but you can't be a distraction to me." Saying he moved away from me. I held his shirt, pulling him towards me. He rested his hand on the desk again to stay still "What are you-" "Shh."
