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.

The pride of the Fort family

"What are you talking about? It's impossible." Desmond sat up in shock. How could it happen? Zaria could never be related to that woman.

"Yes, it is possible." Skeleton speculated. "Forget about the fact that she is mysterious with every turn. When she was a child, she lived in Luxenville with her parents and suddenly came to Imperium when she was eight.

Do you know where Lucy Roatta was during this time? She had also been in luxenville for years, and she left just a few months before Zaria and her dad did. My guess is that she is her mother, and they were trying to follow her."

"Stop." Desmond felt his head hurt when he remembered how mysterious Zaria's mother seemed from the few times she had talked about her.

"Lucy didn't have a daughter. Unless she lied about having a son." He remembered a snippet of his memory from his past.

….

More than two decades ago, when Desmond was a child.

The boy was playing with his friend, Liam.
