For the next couple of weeks, Anamika was trying to put the country together. She must learn all there was about the country and her Ancestors, replace some workers, bestow titles on the deserving ones, amend the rules to straighten the country and lots more. It would not be easy, which was why Asher didn’t return to Country A as planned. He stayed behind to help her in whatever way he could. Inside the office, Anamika was going through some documents when Lady Seraphina, who has officially been bestowed the title of Minister of communication, knocked and entered. “Your Majesty, Richard Quinn’s men are trying to spy into our data.” “What are they trying to find?” she asked. “About your mother and you.” Anamika raised her head from the document and looked at her, “Do what you think my mother would have done if she was alive.” Lady Seraphina understood the assignment. She bowed and left. Asher entered afterwards and hugged her from behind. “You’ve been on these documents for three
Asher and Anamika didn’t bring their bags, except for the roses she placed in a vase beside the window. The sun was slowly giving way to the moon by the time Anamika was done re-pruning the 99 roses and setting them in a vase of warm water to keep them alive for much longer. “We didn’t bring anything along.” She sat on the bed. From inside, she could view the surroundings, thanks to the glass doors and windows. The place only has one room, a kitchen, and bathroom. “Roy brought your necessities… everything is in here,” he opened the wardrobe for her to see. “Oh, you came prepared,” she looked down at her ring. She’s been caressing it ever since he wore it on her finger. A smile settled on her lips as she remembered his cheeky confession. Suddenly, she chuckled. “Mind breaking the good news to me?” he got into bed and hugged her from behind. “I was wondering. Since when did you realize you loved me?” She asked. Asher pulled her so she was sitting in between his legs while he wrapp
Sitting on the deck with a bottle of wine and cake, the two watched the numerous stars in the sky. They’ve gone a bit far from their residence, but Anamika still doesn’t know why she was brought into the yacht. Neither did Asher want to say. Well, the sky looks beautiful from here, so it’s not a loss. Asher fed her a piece of cake. Just as she was about to accept it, her gaze zoomed in on a multi-coloured and sparkling something from afar. “What’s that?” she pointed. “We’re here.” The yacht moved closer until Anamika saw it was a multi-coloured waterfall! “Oh. My. God! How is this possible?!” “It’s the reason I purchased the island. It’s beautiful, right?” He asked. “No, the view is spectacular! Wow!” The yacht stopped a distance away from the waterfall where they could view it clearly. The light coming from the yacht and the multi-coloured Illumination from the waterfall brightened the area, so much so that one would almost forget it was night. “This, I must bring Emma here,
The other Presidents cleared their throats and shifted in their seats. They all owe debts. What if she asks them to pay up too? Scrapping their country banks together to pay off the billions they owe Hassride would crumble their economy, so, it would be better they all mind their businesses and live Country B’s president to handle his matter on his own. The old man glanced around, seeing that no president would come to his aid, he swallowed the lump of pride that was stuck at the back of his throat and sat down. “Your Majesty, it hasn’t come to that.” His heavy voice earlier suddenly went low. “As a businesswoman like you called us, we’re strict on marking our allies and curbing our enemies. If you could boldly look at our face and disregard our authority to vomit such atrocious venom, we can’t be guaranteed that you won’t stab us in the back when you see something that would jeopardize our country. So, on this basis, we hereby vote for your country’s removal from the Alliance Nati
At the hotel… Mr. Richard was amazed and proud of Anamika. Watching her teach those old men a lesson reminded him of how her mother was back then. The man sighed and emptied the glass of wine he was holding. The result of his investigation came out yesterday. Anamika is his daughter. After finding out, he told his family before embarking on the journey to seek his daughter. The Quinn family didn’t have much to say, except that they blamed him for just finding out. As for Lisa, she was having a hard time accepting the revelation. The sound of his phone ringing snapped him out of his thoughts. He picked the phone and checked the caller ID. It was an unknown number, but he decided to answer the call. “Hello,” his voice sounded. ‘Mr. Quinn, the Emperor is back from the meeting.’ Mr. Richard bolted up and hurried out of the hotel. … Arriving at the palace, he was brought to see Anamika in the throne room. Anamika hadn’t even stepped on the dais when the man entered. The father and
"Anamika, we need you to do this. In return, your brother's surgical expenses will be taken care of." Those words rushed through Anamika's mind as she stood in front of the door to room 101. Her hand was stretched, ready to sound the doorbell but for some reason, she couldn't get herself to do it. The feeling of fear and anxiety took her by storm and the chaotic throbbing of her heartbeat left no room for her to come up with a better idea. Of course, she knew this idea that Amelia and her mother came up with was the dumbest idea ever, yet, she accepted it and now she's about to dive into the depth of an unclear ocean. Anamika swallowed due to nervousness. Her sweaty palms reminded her that time was of the essence. Still, the fear of the unknown was becoming stronger with each passing second. She looked to her right, then left, the corridor was free of any soul but the glaring CCTV cameras were leeching on her like she owed them money. 'What's the worst that can happen?' she summo
Anamika was scared for him. At this rate, he might die. While she was carried away by his weird pattern of breathing, she didn't know when her hand had gotten to a point of no return. She immediately withdrew her hand like she got electrocuted when her fingers touched his rod. Anamika could swear that the length had stretched to its maximum size. That was the straw that broke the camel's back. The man turned and slammed her to the bed before pouncing on her. He was suffering and had tried everything in him to hold back. He had soaked himself in a bathtub for more than 30 minutes still, he couldn't stop it. He was intending to suffer through the agonizing pain throughout the night but the incessant ringing of the doorbell wasn't helping matters. Thinking it might be one of his people, he went to open the door and asked for the medicine. "I'm sorry for this, but I can't help it." His husky voice sounded close to her ear before his lips touched her neck one more time. Anamika shiver
Anamika stepped forward but those dead eyes staring back at her didn't let her take another step forward. She could only watch as Amelia walked further and further away like a soulless puppet until she entered an elevator door. Confusion laced Anamika's face as she stood there wondering what happened to Amelia. Just then, the door in front of her burst open, revealing a young and handsome man. But he was a tad less handsome than the stranger she slept with. He was Cullen Walkers. "What are you still doing here? I told you I don't ever want to see you anywhere around me!" Anamika jolted. She had admired him to the extent she forgot her place for a moment. His icy tone was a dead giveaway that he was very furious with Amelia. No wonder Amelia was like that. Did he realize that Amelia is not a virgin? But what Anamika didn't understand was, why would Amelia go to see Cullen when she hadn't called her to come over? Also, it was just a few seconds after 6. If the plan had worked,
