"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

Her phone rang for the umpteenth time and she wanted to explode. It was much easier when only Lucy had access to her contact details. She didn't know how her parents found them but they had resorted to blowing up her phone. She debated turning it off and decided that would not be a permanent solution. They would simply resume calling as soon as she turned it back on.

She took a deep sigh and answered it, tapping her lips with her index finger for Liam to remain silent. "What do you want?"

She heard a similar helpless sigh on the other end before her father spoke. "Ximena, your mother and I don't want to be estranged from you, you know? It would be best if we could all get along as families should."

"We would get along just fine if you didn't resort to trying to ruin my life once you found out you could not control me." She snapped. She mentally counted the seconds until he blew up. He always did whenever he couldn't get his way.
