“You’re gorgeous, rich, incredibly smart and fearless!”

Fearless? I’m not sure about that. 

“You’re perfect Drea, what else can you have?”
Perfect.

Nobody’s perfect, you see.

I may be smart; I guess I got it from my parents. I may be rich; money is never a problem to my family. I may look beautiful to others; probably because they don’t know who I really am.

My name is Alexandrea Varner.	

 I don’t think love is a requirement in the type of marriage my parents have.

My father does not love my mom nor find her attractive in any way and my mother doesn’t either. They’re married for the sake of making money. In front of everyone else, they’re the best actors and you’ll even think they’re made for each other.

My sister, Henrietta, got abused by her 2nd boyfriend at the age of 18 and with the help of my family’s money, the bastard is now behind bars.  My brother is a player. He treats girls like toys and he doesn’t give a damn whether they get pregnant and starve. 


Would you agree it’s understandable if I say that I’m afraid of LOVE?

Kalia's POV : Freedom ain't real. It's just a pretty lie people tell themselves to sleep better at night. Me? I've never been free. Not when I was born into a life where people used me like a tool. Not when I thought I escaped, only to get dragged back in. And sure as hell not now, trapped in a marriage I never wanted with a man who loves me like an addiction-obsessive, toxic, suffocating. Easton swears I belong to him. Calls me his, like I'm a possession, not a person. But I was never meant to be owned. Not by him. Not by anyone. And yet... I'm craving the one person I can't have. The one man I shouldn't want. Jay Kim. My husband's best friend. The only person who looks at me like I'm more than a pawn in someone else's game. The only man who's ever made me feel safe. But love in this world? It don't come without consequences. And choosing Jay? That'd be the kind of mistake that gets people killed. Jay's POV: I never wanted this empire. It was my uncle's before me-a kingdom built on blood, corruption, and greed. But when he fell, I had two choices: take control or let worse men have it. So I took it. And now? I'm doing what he never could. I'm fixing the mess he left behind. Cleaning up the dirt while keeping the wolves from tearing it apart. But then she came back. Kalia Gomez. The only woman who's ever made me want something outside of this life. The one I can't have-because she belongs to someone else. Not just anyone, either. Easton. My friend. My brother in arms. I should walk away. Should forget about the way she looks at me when no one's watching. Should ignore the way my pulse fucking riots every time she's close. But it's too late for that. Because I might be trying to clean up this empire... But for Kalia? I'd burn it all down.

3 years ago, my Step Dad adopted a son. His name was Hunter. For 13 years of his life, Hunter was neglected and abused by his parents. Beaten and raped, Hunter knew nothing good of the world. His Father eventually became a socio-path and shot the Mother. But as he was about to kill Hunter, Police arrived. The Dad shot himself instead. Hunter is now 16 and has been living in my family for 3 years. It's an understatement to say that we don't get along. Hunter is just angry at the world. He drinks and smokes and swears and fights. He kicks me and punches me simply because he's scared. He pushes everyone away. He has flashbacks and nightmares and can't seem to take anymore. Though I know he has reasons for being such an inconsiderate asshole, I still hate him. Our family has now moved to Cyprus. We're only staying for a while, so we just got a small appartment. Bad part about that? It's got 2 rooms. Me and Hunter have to share. At first I hate it. But then over the weeks, I begin to see how broken Hunter Storm really is. He's not just a dick, he's scared. And I'm slowly starting to comfort him through his troubles. We're getting somewhere, but then the worst possible thing happens. But strangley, it's bringing us closer. He's sleeping in my bed, he's crying to me, he's holding my hand. I'm holding him at night, I'm wearing his hoodies, I'm smiling at his touch. Before I even realize it, I'm in love. { Strong Language Throughout! Includes Physical/Sexual Abuse Scenes & Sex Please Don't Read If Bad Language Makes You Cry. But If You Like Hot Emo Boys With Lip Rings, Read Ahead ^.^ }

I walked out of the building, jubilating as I called Leila to let her know I got the job as the PA to Zachary Davis the Billionaire. I couldn't believe it,I can't even stop myself when I heard someone clears their throat,turning to face Mr Arrogant aka gorgeous, I changed it to arrogant after I met him yesterday, immediately I frown at him" I see someone is excited" he says,rolling my eyed at him ,I reply "run along before you destroy the joy around me cause believe me I will hit you!. Immediately I cover my mouth in shock ,did I just do that ? I said to myself ,seeing his eyes wide open in shock,I smirk in victory not caring anymore about what I said,but looking at his eyes, I lost all my confidence as he walks up to me and say "do you know who you just said that to!? I whimper In fear,what have I done?
