Chapter one

He kept looking at her, the angel who was crying at her mother's funeral. He himself had killed his father for being too much annoying but what he was grateful for to his father was this sweet angel. That was the difference between them. One cried at her mother's funeral while the other caused his father's funeral. Her goodness pulled him to her and he wanted to taint her, make her like he is, make her evil...

He decided that today was the time to introduce himself to her. She is sixteen already and she lost her mother yesterday. Her father was dead a long time ago anyways. She is the weakest now and this is the right time to clip her wings before she flies away.

He had things more important to do but he just couldn't look away from her face. He didn't like that she was crying. He was the one who should make her cry, not the dead mother. After about an hour, the funeral ended as she started walking towards her one bedroom apartment. No relative of hers decided to take responsibility of her. Nobody cared and in fact, only a few of them cared enough to came. The rest didn't find the time to come. Maybe because the girl and the mother were the poorest among her relatives...

After her father had died, her mother cried for two days straight before she strengthened herself for her daughter. However, she wasn't educated much. She was barely literate, having no skills on which she could depend for their livelihood. So she decided to be a worker in the nearest construction site. Thus, the quality of the education that her daughter was receiving declined severely.

Now, the mother has died because of an accident in the site and now, the daughter has no skills. She has no idea as to how she will take care of herself but she knew that she had to find a way, like her mother. She couldn't give up at all. As she was walking while thinking all these things, she didn't realise that a car was speeding towards her. The car screeched to a halt as she looked up and saw a handsome man in the car. She hurriedly crossed the road and wanted to go ahead, but how could the devil let this opportunity go?

He came out of his car and asked, "Are you alright Miss ...?"

The girl smiled for the first time on that day and nodded, "Angel, my name is Angel. Yes I'm alright. Thank you for asking. You are the first one who asked me that today."

The handsome man knew what she was talking about but made a confused face nevertheless. Angel appeared flustered as she mumbled, "Nevermind."

The man smiled and said, "I'm Luke, I'm a businessman."

Angel's mouth formed an O shape as she remembered where she had seen the man. The man was the owner of the land where her mother was working. However, now that her grief had lessened somewhat and she could think clearly, she felt something dangerous from him and decided that she should stay away from him. She smiled politely and turned around to leave when he caught her hand from behind and asked, "Would you like to go out with me?"

Angel was dumbfounded. She just wanted to go to her apartment and cry her heart out. She turned to him and nodded, wanting to get out of his grip. Seeing her twisting her wrist to make him leave her bewitched him. He wanted to hold her down and ram inside her as she would struggle under him but he had to lay out the trap to catch the angel first.

He smiled his charming smile and said, "Great, so tomorrow at 7 pm at Monaco restaurant."

Angel's eyes widened as she exclaimed, "B-But it's a very costly place. I won't be able to pay."

Luke chuckled lightly and said, "I own most of the things in this country and I own that restaurant too." And I'll make sure to own you too.

Angel nodded and hurriedly went her way as he kept looking at her scared and flustered self...
