The Playboy CEO

~°~°~°~°~°~ An accidental marriage. A drunken mistake, or a premeditated plan for revenge? Amaria doesn’t know what to make of her new situation, and due to unforeseen circumstances, she is trapped. Forced to accept her fate until the time is right, a typically reserved executive finds herself at a crossroad between following logic, and giving in to her bleeding heart. The man she calls her husband does not make it easy for her either, but however she decides to look at it, she reaches the same conclusion. A conclusion that breaks her heart. As for him? Well, it’s up to him to decide what he’ll do with this new mess he’s stuck in, and whether he'll pursue a happy future with his wife rather than let her go as he had once upon a time. [WARNING: the male and female lead in this story have a complicated relationship with oftentimes toxic elements. The second volume of this story will see to their personal growth as they learn what it means to be in healthy relationships.]

The Dark Side (1)

"So? What do you think?" I swirled my glass of wine tentatively, taking in the pale yellow tint of it under the low lighting of the restaurant. The place was more of a throwback in time than a modern eatery, with the ceiling and electric work looking like it came straight out of the early nineteen thirties, complete with yellowed lightbulbs and vintage instrumentals softly in the background. "Should we do it?"

Jason looked at me from over the rim of his glass, a fleeting gaze that struck the inner chords of all my chakras. "I still can't decide on whether it's a good idea or not. I mean, it sounds good, and it looks good in theory, and it probably looks good on paper, but is it still a good idea?" 

He had a point. I also had my reservations, but I didn't want my decision to be influenced by anything I'd heard of Rafael so far. There was no need to bring personal thought into it. If he was willing to do business, then we would do business, as per usual.
