After One Reckless Night; A Secret Binds Us Chapter 105: Properly This Time
Kimberly's gaze dropped to his tie, her voice losing its edge. “I didn't see you. After the walk… I thought you missed it. I thought you weren't watching.”The silence that followed was heavy. Then, his hand softened on her jaw, his thumb tracing the line of her throat with a tenderness that hurt more than the intensity. “Kimberly,” he exhaled, his voice thick. “I saw everything.”Completely shocked, Kimberly looked up, searching his face. The raw honesty in his expression made her throat go tight.“I was there before you even hit the lights,” he said, his voice steadying but still rough with emotion. “I didn't move. I couldn't. You think I’d miss a single second of you?” He brushed her cheek with his thumb, grounding her. “I was right there, watching you walk like you owned the damn world. And I hated every man in that room because they got to look at you too.”Kimberly was speechless for a few minutes.Here she was, thinking Bryce hadn't fulfilled his promise of watching her, but
After One Reckless Night; A Secret Binds Us Chapter 104: You Weren't Even There
Once Kimberly and Bryce got home, the emotions they had been holding back at the gala, shattered instantly.The heavy door to their room clicked shut immediately, severing the chaos of the hallway from the sudden, pressurized silence of the room. The transition was so abrupt it felt like stepping into the eye of a hurricane.Bryce didn't wait nor even care to breathe. The moment the lock engaged, he spun Kimberly around, his hand slamming against the wood beside her head with a muffled thud. Before Kimberly could even gasp, he was there with her—an overwhelming presence of heat, cologne, and raw, unrestrained hunger. He claimed her m0uth not with a question, but with a demand. It was a jagged, desperate k!ss, the kind that spoke of hours of forced composure finally snapping. His t0ngue swept against hers, deep and possessive, tasting the “Boom” the kids had joked about, but on Bryce, it wasn't a joke. It was a fuse hitting dynamite. Kimberly’s hands, which had been hovering in mi

“Sophie's here too?”“Hi!” Sophie beamed up at him, completely proud of herself.For a man who had just handled a room full of elite industry sharks without blinking, Bryce looked genuinely stunned, and happy all at once.They were still carried away by the kids when a much more composed and familiar voice drifted from the crowd.“Well, I suppose the 'surprise' element of this trip didn't exactly survive the first thirty seconds, did it?”Both Bryce and Kimberly looked up.“Nana?” Kimberly’s jaw practically hit the floor. Bryce straightened up, his eyes widening as he shook off the shock of the toddler-tackle. Standing a few steps away was Nana Ellie, looking as composed and amused as ever, like she hadn’t just casually walked into one of the biggest nights of their lives. Someone who should probably be in bed right now resting. Or least, in a couch watching her favorite show, after she must have taken her meds.Beside her stood Ava, wearing a warm smile, one hand resting lightly o

“Careful,” a voice said, steady but uninterested. Clara blinked rapidly, trying to focus, but her eyes kept dragging back to the stage like she was being pulled by force.Because there, under the blinding lights, Kimberly stood beside him. Beside Bryce their boss!What in the world was happening right now before her eyes?Her chest rose and fell unevenly as reality sank in like something sharp and unforgiving.“That’s… that’s impossible…” Clara whispered, her voice hollow as she still was in complete doubt.Back on the stage, Kimberly barely could hear the noise. The gasps, whispers, and the eruption building beneath the surface.They all felt distant. Because all she could hear and see, was Bryce.Her fingers were still wrapped in his hand, warm, steady, and grounding in a way that cut through the overwhelming flood of everything else.Her heart was pounding so loud she was sure the mic would pick it

They hauled ass around a corner, flying past racks of clothes and startled assistants, heading straight for the VIP dressing wing. Kimberly tried to plant her feet. “Cindy, slow down—”“Nope.”"Cindy—"“Trust me.”“I can't trust you when you start acting crazy like this.”“Just shut up, and follow me, Kim! F*cking trust me.”That stopped Kimberly's protest mid-sentence. She went quiet for a beat. “Okay...” she whispered.Cindy glanced back, a little smirk playing on her lips. “Good. Because we’re about to pull off something a little crazy.”Outside, the music shifted again. It got even slower, and heavier, turning into something romantic. It was the kind of build-up that made the audience stop whispering and sit up straight. The house lights dimmed again into something warmer.People began to murmur to themselves, guessing if it was already time. Many of them had heard rumors about Bryce Harri

The second Kimberly’s heels hit the backstage carpet, the energy slammed into her.It was a wall of voices and hands back inside here.“You kîlled it, Kim!” Vivian rushed to her immediately, pulling her into a tight hug.“That was so insane!”“You're my literal idol, Kimberly Owens!”“Can I get a signature? Please?”“Did you hear that crowd?! They went mental!”It was a mix of her old die-hard fans and the new faces on the crew, all of them raining praises on her. Honestly? She felt like a damn celebrity. A real one.Cindy came charging through the crowd, grabbing Kimberly by the shoulders so hard she nearly tipped over. “Oh. My. God. kimberly! Ahh! Freaking hell!”Kimberly just laughed, her breath coming in short, jagged bursts as the adrenaline finally started to catch up with her blood. “I didn't fall,” she said, sounding like she couldn't quite believe it herself.Cindy stared at her like she was crazy. “Fall? Who said anyone was going to fall? Girl, you didn't just walk, you jus

The next day morning, Bryce’s car pulled into the Agency's building and slid smoothly into his private parking spot.He didn’t step out right away. He simply sat in there for a little longer, the low hum of the engine being the only sound, before finally killing it and opening the door.Movements f

“Princess,” Bryce called softly, nudging Keira’s shoulder, “Why don’t you go grab your storybook? You can show your Mom the new one you picked last night.” Keira hesitated, glancing between her mom and dad, then she nodded and slid off his lap. “Okay!” As soon as her tiny footsteps disappeared d

The morning light of the next pushed softly through the curtains, seeping in slowly. The storm from the night before had passed, leaving everything washed and strangely gentle, as if the world itself knew better than to interrupt them today.Bryce walked down the hallway with two cups of coffee, t

The smile on his face still disappear, it lingered for a long while. Because whether or not he knew when it started, he loved it. Every bit of it. And he wanted more of those soft, ridiculous, strangely warm mornings. He was about to take another sip of the tea when his phone started ringing. The
