"Is that Mrs. Vasilyev?" I asked, and the couple glanced up. The moment our eyes met, I let out a small, delighted squeal. "It is really you! Hi, my name is Nadya, and I am a fan of your clothing collections. You are amazing. You are doing such a wonderful job with your new release."A warm smile spread over her face, and it reached all the way to her eyes. "Aww, thank you so much. But please, call me Ylva."Her voice was soft and kind, and I felt a pang of guilt that I had to fake all this."Okay, Ylva," I grinned. "I am so sorry to interrupt. I could not help myself.""Not at all." She waved my apology away. "I love meeting people who like my work. Are you here on vacation?""It is our honeymoon, actually." The word came out smoothly as I gestured toward Jafer who was now coming closer. “We arrived today."Her eyes lit up, pressing a hand to her chest. "Honeymoon? My husband and I are here for our honeymoon too! What a coincidence.""Really?" I laughed, and this time the laugh was r

He did not push any further, and I was grateful for that. But I was starving. My anger was still louder than my hunger, so I held on to it, curled up on the couch with my eyes closed, trying to imagine anything that would stop my mind from drifting to the smell of that food.I heard him stand, and the soft clink of plates as he carried them to the kitchen. Then his steps came toward the couch. It was a single long one, curved like a wide C. He settled a short distance from my feet and opened his laptop. The quiet clicking of keys filled the room. I opened my eyes a little, watching him as the light from the screen fell across his face. He was typing with complete focus, shirtless again, and the sight did nothing for me. A body is only a body. A man with a personality that bad could not make it matter.My stomach growled.It was a loud, shameless growl, and my eyes widened. I clamped both hands over my stomach, as if I could strangle the sound. His fingers paused on the keys. When he

The four-hour flight finally ended. I stepped off the plane and walked behind him as he carried both suitcases, one in each hand, without saying a word to me. I followed slowly, my steps a little behind his, watching the broad line of his back and the way his shoulders never once turned in my direction. The silence between us had followed us all the way from the house, and I could not tell whether it was a wall or a warning.I bit my lip and looked around, taking in the place. The air was warmer than I expected.A chauffeur stood waiting beside a black car, and as we came closer, he straightened, smiled, and bowed before handing the keys to Jafer. The man glanced at me and I gave him a small, tired smile as he lifted our luggage into the trunk. Jafer had already opened the door and slid in. I rounded the car and climbed into the passenger seat, tucking my feet under me.He started the engine just as the trunk shut. I turned to check that the man had finished, and he hurried to the d

His eyes went cold in an instant. His usual frown deepened into something harder and colder, and I replayed my words in my head, trying to find what I had said wrong. I could not find it. He stood without a word, took something from the drawer that I did not get a good look at, and walked out of the room. I had come to realise that whenever he wanted to hide his feelings, he would leave the room and leave me with the silence. I let out a long sigh and slumped back onto the bed, staring at the ceiling. I hoped he would not replace Vik. I turned the idea of a honeymoon between us over in my head, and it just feels weird. The only reason I could come up with was either he was doing this to make this marriage believable to the people at our wedding, or perhaps he just wants to get to know me. The latter being the reason seemed very slim. Later, I was called down for dinner, but Jafer was not at the table. Viktor told me he was working in his study. I ate quickly and went back to the

Jafer's POVI walked into the bedroom half expecting her to start with questions, especially about Irene, but she was quiet. She sat curled on the couch with a pillow in her lap, and she did not look at my side at all.I did not mind. If anything, I preferred the silence.When I came back out of the bathroom, she was no longer in the sitting area. The pillow lay abandoned on the cushion. I had actually planned to tell her about the trip before the night ended, and I frowned at the empty couch, then pulled on something comfortable and went downstairs for water.I had reached the bottom step when I heard her giggle. Light, unguarded, and entirely foreign to this house.My steps stopped absentmindedly. In our room she had been stiff and silent, avoiding my eyes as if I might bite. Now she was laughing, and I knew the voice she was laughing with."...I promise to make you a sweeter lunch tomorrow, if you introduce me tonight."Lunch. She had cooked for him?My jaw tightened. Then another

"The boss is not around, so you will have to go," Viktor told Irene, his voice low and even, almost kind. Irene did not so much as glance at him. Her eyes stayed fixed on me, and I understood that every second I stood there would only feed whatever anger she had driven here with. My pulse was still racing from her words, and my hand ached where she had gripped it. I turned to walk away. She lunged to grab me. Viktor moved faster, stepping between us and pulling her to the side with one hand on her arm. "If you stay here, the boss will be upset with you. You know that," he warned her. Something in his voice reached her. Her shoulders dropped a fraction, though her jaw stayed tight. "I am here to see him." She said stubbornly. "Then I will need to ask him first." I watched them, my arms folded tight across my chest, while Viktor took out his phone and typed with his thumb. The seconds stretched, then he raised his head. "He does not want you here." Irene fumed. "That is only b
