Precious_1

Cheated on by her fiancé weeks before their wedding, Sara, vowed to never love again. Men could not be trusted, especially with a woman's heart. She had made the mistake once, and that was more than enough for her. Never again would she make the same mistake to give her heart to another. 

But her resolve began to waver when she came across her new boss, Alexander Legend, a man whose reputation in his expertise and ruthlessness in business preceded him. Respected and feared by many, but to Sara, he was an annoying pest she wished she never met. Too persisted for her liking yet, she finds herself falling, slowly melting in his presence. Getting used to his stolen kisses and hugs and sometimes anticipating them.

Excerpts


“You will fall for me, Sara. One day, I'll have your heart too,” Alex drawled. His voice had a seductive allure that had her heart racing. The fact that his hand was leisurely resting around her waist didn't help her either.

“Try as much as you want to,” despite her body begging for his touch, Sara was determined to reject him today and any other day. She couldn't make the same mistake again. “You won't succeed in your seduction. NOT NOW. NOT EVER.” 

Alex smirked, kissed behind her ear and her body trembled, much to his satisfaction. That was all he needed to keep purising the stubborn woman in his arms right now. “We shall see, Miss Ambrose,” he cooed and then released her. He returned to his seat and asked in a professional tone. “What is my schedule for today?”

Melting Her Cold Heart

"Mrs Legend is perfectly fine," Dr Anders said meaningfully. His eyes darted towards Alex, who hadn't said anything throughout the process, only gave answers to the few questions that he was asked, and other than that, he did say nothing else.

"Although I would say that she is rather fortunate that nothing serious happened. This could have resulted in something much more dire," he added, and Alex nodded his head while Sara pressed her lips into a thin line.

She looked at Alex while expression had darkened after hearing that something worse could have happened.

"Thank you for your feedback, Dr. Anders. I assure you that nothing like this will happen again," Sara said. Her hand found its way to Alex's hand and intertwined their fingers.

"I hope it never happens again, Mrs Legend," Dr Anders said as she stood up. "Congratations on regaining your memories back."
