Chapter 1
A boy, 15 years old, stood in front of the burning house, the flames casting eerie shadows on his face. The heat scorched his skin, but the inferno inside him was far more intense.
The fire was a perfect mirror of his shattered soul, consuming everything in its path just as the betrayal had consumed his heart.
She had been his everything, his Ria. They had shared secrets, dreams, and countless stolen moments of innocent joy.
But now, she was the embodiment of his agony.

The eyes which would protect her from every evil now held a hatred that cut deeper than any blade.

CHAPTER 2
Ashton Chase/ML
*Entering his Porsche*
I looked up at New York City as my chauffeur drove. The blue sky and busy people bustling around. I shrugged and rolled my car window up, leaning back in my Seat.
I never liked driving on my own. It's not that I don't know how; I just don't like it. As the car reached my office, 'DEN ENTERPRISES,' I looked at my self-made company, feeling proud of myself.
Ashton Chase/ML
*Stepping out of car*
I walked inside my office, ignoring all the 'Good mornings' from my employees. I went straight to the VIP lift and pressed the button for the 60th floor, which is the topmost floor for others.
Ashton Chase/ML
*Smirking*
As I reached my floor, which hardly had 15 employees, I knew that those who were here earned hefty salaries. That's the reason employees are eager to get promoted to this floor.
Walking to my chamber, I turned the knob and entered, sitting in my chair, which was my throne. DEN Enterprises was my empire, where I ruled everyone. No one disobeyed me. No one betrayed me. If they did, I knew many violent methods that would make them cry in silence.
Ashton Chase/ML
"Come in"
*leaning on chair closing eyes.*
Valeria Adams/ FL
"Good morning Mr. Chase"
*Carrying an iPad with his black coffee*
Ashton Chase/ML
*opens his eyes*
"Morning Ms. Adams."
Valeria Adams/ FL
*Keeps the coffee in front of him*
"Mr. Chase, you have a meeting with Mr. Williams in 30 minutes, followed by a meeting with the CEO of Arian Industries at 12 PM. Then-"
Ashton Chase/ML
*Cuts her off*
"Cancel all my meetings after 12 PM, Ms. Adams."
One thing I hate the most. 'Being Questioned'. I declare, I order, which ment no more questions. This women need to fit tht in her mind.
Ashton Chase/ML
*Angrily banging the table standing up*
"Ms. Adams, I SAID CANCEL THE MEETINGS."
Valeria Adams/ FL
"Yes Mr. Chase"
*Getting out his chamber*
He could have said it nicely, but no, all he had to do was shout.
Valeria Adams/ FL
*Mimicking in a gross tone while making faces*
"Ms. Adams, I SAID CANCEL THE MEETING"
*Scoffs*
Despite his arrogance, this man held a special place in my heart that I couldn't quite put into words. Even though he could be demanding and blunt, he had a way of capturing my affection more than I cared to admit. Not that I minded.
Valeria Adams/ FL
*smiling sheepishly walking to her cabin*
Ashton Chase/ML
*Sat in chair rubbing his forehead*
I didn’t want to scold her, but she tends to question more than she should, which frustrates me.
Ashton's Mobile starts ringing.
Ashton Chase/ML
*Takes his mobile and recives the call*
"Found her?"
*Closing his eyes leaning on chair*
Ashton Chase/ML
*Freeze in his place*
"On my way."
