"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.

"I would love to see what the well looks like during the day. The well and everything else in here." She took a last glance at the wishing well.

"We can always come back. Or we could stay here for the rest of the night." He suggested.

"Let's come back some other day." She didn't think she was able to stay up the whole night, especially not after the turmoil she had been through earlier.

"When you are ready to come back, just say the word and I'll be there." He kissed her cheek before pulling her to a wooden bench in the park. "Maybe I should get a blanket? It might get colder."

She snuggled into his chest and pulled his arms around her, hugging them to her chest. She inhaled his scent that made her feel safe, instantly feeling warmer. "I feel better now."
