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.

Slumping onto the couch next to Zaria, she broke down. "He overheard my phone call with Nathaniel. At least that's what he said. I'm starting to think he didn't really hear much and by telling him everything, I gave him all the information he could use. I trusted him, Zaria. I nearly got everyone killed because I was stupid enough to trust him."

"Hey, it's alright." Zaria hugged her. "You didn't trust him on your own. You only thought he was a good man because I trusted him with my entire life."

And she had to give it to Norman. He had that kind smile that lured everyone to think he was an angel. For years, she thought he would make a loving father if she didn't have one already. Of course, he also knew she was his niece for a long time and didn't reveal it. That should have been the first red flag. Only, she didn't see it until now when it was too late.
