"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 Tyrant's Wife

Recalling his mother's reaction when he let her know that he was going after Natalie, Zeus knew it was not the best time for them to meet.

She knew that if the woman was Natalie, they had clearly met before and Zeus would not be too reluctant to let them meet. His reaction might mean it was someone new. But one couldn't be too certain with matters related to Zeus so she pushed a little.

"It doesn't matter to me. But in case she thinks I'm a creep for wanting to meet so early, maybe you could just show me a picture of her?"

"I'll see you later, mother." He changed the topic swiftly to make her leave, which confirmed her suspicion. How could this happen?
