Talon's lips curved up into a brief smile for a moment, watching as she fumbled for words. The box remained tight against her chest, as if she could use it as a shield between them.

"You like making me uncomfortable, don’t you?" she muttered.

He tilted his head, feigning innocence. "Not at all. I simply like watching you squirm".

Halo huffed. "Well, congratulations. If you keep this up you might see a lot of that"

Talon chuckled but said nothing more. Instead, he walked toward the minibar at the far side of the bedroom, pouring himself a glass of something brown...... tequila?.

"Do you drink, I could pour you a glass?" He asked her although he could already assume her response.

"No, I drank the thing called beer once and it tasted foreign on my taste buds".

He said nothing, another smile playing on his lips as he leaned against the wall, watching her.

"You just got married to me, won't you at least celebrate?"

"There's not much to celebrate" she responded without tearing her eyes fro

  • A contract for two: An Ashwood's bride   Trigger

    As he said it, two officers came through the side corridor dragging a stretcher between them. A bloodied body lay on it, a white sheet already stained crimson around the head and chest. The sight hit hard.Halo turned away immediately. Talon instinctively reached out and covered her eyes with his hand."Don’t look.""What the hell is this?" Talon questioned.The detective pressed his lips together. "That’s one of the kitchen staff. The Chestnut haired girl.""What?" Talon narrowed his eyes. "She’s dead?"The junior detective, Kevin, stepped forward. "We had finished basic interrogation with her. She was quiet yesterday. But this morning, she came in ready to talk. She was very nervous, shaking even. Said she had something to confess, but not in front of everyone. We pulled her into one of the private rooms. She kept glancing at her phone. Then it rang.""She picked it?" Talon asked."She did," Kevin nodded. "We didn’t stop her. We thought it was a family member. It lasted maybe thirt

  • A contract for two: An Ashwood's bride   A station turn

    It was morning.Halo blinked, and for a second, she forgot where she was.Then she felt an arm slung around her waist. And someone was breathing near her neck.He was still asleep. Or so she thought.He clung to her like a child would a stuffed toy, face buried softly against the back of her shoulder. Peaceful. Really peaceful.This....was definitely the first night they'd shared a bed. Properly.She didn't move for a moment, unsure if to.Then, slowly, she turned her head, just slightly.And then she caught him staring."You’re awake," she said."I was about to say the same thing." His voice was rough with sleep. "But yeah.....I have been awake a bit. I just didn’t want to move."She didn’t answer that.He stretched a little, still holding her. "Wanna go downstairs? Maybe grab some breakfast?"Halo raised a brow."You spoon me all night and think food is the next logical step?"He smirked. "A man’s gotta eat."She rolled her eyes, but she was already sitting up."Fine. But I'm not ma

  • A contract for two: An Ashwood's bride   Sleep-grinding

    Halo hadn't felt anything like this before, she had a mini crush once, so she wasn't a stranger to the feeling of desire.But this......was on a different scale.They had said their goodnights and gone to bed, keeping whatever unfinished conversation for the morning to come. But it wasn't till her eyes snapped open in the middle of the night that she felt someone grinding against her."Sshhh, turn wifey." He whispered as his hips worked quickly against hers.How could she go back to bed like this,His lips were caressing and kissing away at her neck. She was trying to reel in her gasps, feeling weak at the knees."Talon.....what are you doing?""Isn't it obvious?" He cocked a brow, "getting some friction." She felt his palm cover the top of her mounds and she sprang up. That action made Talon to roll over the bed in shock, his mouth was wide and his eyes were apologetic."Shit, I didn't.....I thought -"All this while, he had thought that he was in a dream, he didn't realize he wa

  • A contract for two: An Ashwood's bride   Resisting

    Shortly after Halo left, the back door creaked open again. Karina slipped inside, her jacket slung over one shoulder and a smirk playing on her lips. "Forgot something," she purred, closing the door behind her. Talon didn’t argue. He was too conflicted. When Karina approached him, he let her touch him, let her kiss him. But as her hands roamed, Talon found himself holding back. His mind wasn’t on Karina. It was stuck upstairs, behind a locked door where someone he had left upstairs was pretending not to be hurt. After a few strained minutes, Talon pulled away. "You should go," he muttered, standing up and grabbing her jacket from the chair. Karina sighed dramatically but didn't argue. She took the jacket, gave him a lazy wink, and slipped out the door without a word. The house fell quiet again. Talon stood there, his hands clenched, before forcing himself eventually to move. He walked upstairs, every step feeling heavier than the last. He hesitated outside the doo

  • A contract for two: An Ashwood's bride   Blowing steam

    Halo had found a spare nightwear and fallen asleep in the guest bedroom, expecting to return home later. However, Talon had insisted on spending the night. The new mobile phone Talon had purchased for Halo sat on the bedside table, and Halo had punched in her parent's numbers, accidentally flashing Scarlet instead. When Scarlet called back, her tone was far from happy.As Halo glanced over at Talon, she noticed he was stirring in his sleep. His hands were clasped over his chest, and his knees were drawn up to his torso in a fetal position. Suddenly, Halo heard rushed panicked breaths from Talon, and she was immediately alarmed.She went to his side and lightly shook his shoulders.Talon's green eyes blinked open, glazed over with unshed tears."Are you crying?" She realized it was a stupid question as soon as she saw the tears. Talon stood up from the bed, moving the sheets aside, and muttered, "I'm fine, go back to bed."Halo's confusion and worry grew. "I can't go back to bed, Tal

  • A contract for two: An Ashwood's bride   Tough

    It didn’t take long.By the time the afternoon sun started dipping into early evening, Chief Rawley arrived with two patrol vans, three officers in dark blue uniforms, and a notepad already filled with scribbled questions.Talon stood at the front door, waiting. Zorro lingered behind him, arms folded, his expression tight. Halo stayed inside the living room, seated, hands clasped together, her gaze flicking between the door and the hallway.Chief Rawley stepped forward. “Mr. Ashwood.”Talon nodded. “Thank you for coming.”The officers moved around the perimeter, entering the kitchen and back corridors. The staff were already lined up in the service hallway, murmuring nervously among themselves. The butler stood straight and sharp.The cook who’d peeked out earlier was pale, avoiding everyone’s gaze.“Your report said murder,” Rawley said under his breath as he stepped aside with Talon. “We’ll need the doctor's findings in full before making this official.”“Doctor Greg is ready to coo
