Call For Cold War

The Heiress: War For The Throne

She knows nothing of her past. Her memories are a void, and her future looms as uncertain as the thick harmattan fog that cloaks the horizon. But one thing is clear: to reclaim her rightful place, she must wield vengeance as her weapon, strength as her armor, and power as her destiny. Her journey is a treacherous one, fraught with secrets, blood, and betrayal. Determined to seize the title that was stolen from her, Ann's heart hardens, her resolve unshakable — until she crosses paths with a man whose gaze is as cold and unyielding as the shadows they both seek to outrun. "What if you are unable to pay?" he asks, a trace of amusement in his voice. Ann’s response is unwavering, her eyes steely. "Then I would pay back with my body and soul." Bound by a dangerous pact, their lives intertwine in a dance of desire and deception. As the layers of Ann’s forgotten past unravel, she discovers that what was once buried refuses to stay hidden. Old enemies resurface, and new betrayals strike from the shadows, threatening to shatter the fragile ground she stands on. With each revelation, Ann is forced to confront the darkness within herself. She faces a harrowing choice: succumb to the fear that has long haunted her or embrace the predator she was born to be. When pushed to the edge, Ann’s claim is undeniable: "No one touches what's mine," she declares, her voice laced with fierce possession and unyielding determination. In a world where power is the ultimate prize, Ann refuses to be a victim. This time, she won’t run. This time, she’ll fight. Slm...

You called

Under his gaze, with a slow and deliberate motion, the brunette beside him grips the railing and carefully leans back. Aiden's first instinct was to step closer, but the girl's raspy voice stopped him. "You'd be surprised how often I do this, sir." Sensing she had startled him, and perhaps even disturbed him, she added the explanation she knew he needed: "Surely you've had moments in your life when you wished everything would just end," she said, closing her eyes and leaning back a little further. "When I do this, I realize that I don't want to die." The man rested his elbows on the railing and let out a long sigh. She was the first woman in his life he couldn't understand or see through. A unique and complex character, but damn beautiful. "Remind me once again, for the fourth time now, how you passed the psychological evaluation, Miss Joy?" The profound silence between them had become uncomfortable. Aiden felt he should rephrase the question, soften it somehow. For the first time since he'd met her, he felt he'd crossed a line. "Mr. Black," she finally said with a sigh, "when I do this, I realize that I want to live and be happy." Aiden turned his head slightly toward her. Something in his gaze had changed, and Tatum noticed. That's why she casually added: "As for the psychological exams," she chuckled, letting go of the railing, "be assured that I don't have that much cash lying around just to pass them all, only to protect your ass." The man's chuckle put her at ease. She didn't need anyone's pity.
