The Tyrant's Wife

"The harder I try to hate you, the deeper I fall for you." His presence irked her to the core, but whenever he got out of her sight, she missed him?! …. A tyrant, known to be the city's infamous playboy. As an executive assistant, she was forced to work under him by the most cruel twist of fate. If losing her job overnight was a nightmare, then working under a boss like Desmond Fort was hell. He was an arrogant narcissist with an ego bigger than the whole of Imperium city, but that was not what angered her the most. The most infuriating fact was that despite his constant assholery, her heart seemed to stupidly skip a beat every time he gazed at her with those devilishly charming eyes. She knew she was making a mistake but that didn't stop her from sinking deeper and deeper into his charm. All she wanted now was to leave! But leaving hell was not nearly as easy as getting in.

"You are joking, right?" Zaria waited to him to burst into laughter for successfully pranking her. When his expression didn't change in the slightest, she realized that he was serious.

"Why would you think yourself capable of hurting the woman you care the most about? You would even die in her stead if anything were to threaten her life!"

Now that she said it out aloud, he felt a little silly for believing the possibility. His lips moved but he did not say a word. Zaria was easy to trust and talk to but he wasn't willing to tell her more than he already had. He brushed her off. "I just know."

"Fine." She stood up, grabbing their empty cups to throw in the trash bin at the side of the street.
