After the last "I do" CHAPTER FOURTY-SIX: A DREAM COME TRUE
I turned immediately.“What?” I asked searching his eyes.“The girl I want to impress is you, Rachel.” He said againI stood shocked, my whole body vibrating. “Am I dreaming?” I thought, but I didn’t just think that, I actually said it loud.In response, Damian held my waist close and kissed me passionately. It was slow and burning at first; my eyes were open all along out of shock.My whole body was on fire, but I was blank, too stiff to think.When he stopped, he pulled my forehead to touch his. “Are you dreaming?” he teased in the deepest bedroom voice.“Am I?” I said, almost collapsing in pleasure.“We will see to that.” He pulled me in for another kiss. This time it was demanding; he was literally eating me whole.Before I could catch my breath, he lifted me and carried me to the glass dining table. In one swift move, he cleared all the food, and it poured onto the floor.I’m not the type to watch food waste, but God, I didn’t think of it for even half a second. I just didn’t wan
After the last "I do" CHAPTER FOURTY-FIVE: CONFESSION
We got back to Aria’s apartment, and I knew we had to talk.Aria poured me a cup of coffee, the soft clink of the cup on the table breaking the awkward quiet. “You look exhausted,” she said, sliding the cup toward me. “This should calm your nerves.”I managed a small smile and took a sip, the warmth coating my throat. “Thanks,” I whispered.She leaned forward, folding her arms on the table. “Rachel… we need to talk about the other day.”I sighed, brushing my fingers through my hair. “I’m working on it, Aria. I have a detective looking into Mom’s death.”Her eyes widened. “You do? That’s great! Is there something I can do to help?”“For now, no,” I said softly. “We’ll let you know when we need you.”She nodded slowly. “So… what’s the deal so far?”“The deal?” I repeated, confused.“What have you found out?”I looked down at the cup, swirling the coffee absentmindedly. “Damian just linked me up with the detective today. So far, nothing solid yet.”“Oh…” she said quietly. “Have you heard
After the last "I do" CHAPTER FOURTY-FOUR: DINNER GONE WRONG
Damian’s driver pulled up at Aria’s small apartment building. The engine sound stopped. Aria was already standing by the door when we arrived. She looked beautiful as usual as she entered the car.I watched her steal quick glances at the car’s aesthetics . Damian had asked his driver to drop me at my parents house and to pick Aria too. That was not normal. Damian was not the charity type. He did not hand out favors like candy. He avoided attachments. He did not do things for no reason.“What’s going on with you?” Aria asked me softly as she buckled up, the question sharp and small.Aria had been off since everything with Liam. Her shoulders sat low. Her eyes had lost some of the fire they once had. She used to be loud, confident, and bold. Now she spoke like someone afraid to be heard.“Nothing,” I said, “Just… you know.”She raised an eyebrow. “what about Chris?”“He….No,” I said fast. “I mean….” I stopped myself because the truth tasted messy in my mouth.Aria chewed her lower lip.
After the last "I do" CHAPTER FOURTY-THREE: PRESCRIPTIONS OF DEATH
“Nothing,” I said, though the pain inside me was a heavy stone.“You are acting funny,” Damian said, watching me with that steady look he always used“It’s not that,” I tried to smile, but it failed. “Never mind. It’s my sister, Aria.” I lied as the words left my mouth.He watched me for a long moment, then exhaled slowly. “Okay,” he said finally, like that closed the matter.My phone rang then. I jumped at the sound. Was very surprised to see the name on the screenIt was my father’s name on the screen. He never called me when I lived with them. He certainly did not call now,I looked at Damian, too scared to pick up at first. He stared, but he did not say anything.I answered. “Hello.”“Your mother wants a family dinner. Don’t be late.” His voice was flat and quick. He hung up before I could ask why.Which mom? I thought. Then Aria’s call came in. I picked it with shaking hands.“Hey,” I said.“Rach,” Aria said. Her voice was low. “Dad wants us home tonight for dinner. Actually it’s
After the last "I do" CHAPTER FOURTY-TWO : JUST ANOTHER GAME
Our gazes collided, and his eyes scanned me slowly, carefully, as though I had caught him naked. His jaw tightened, his lips pressed into a line, and there was a flicker of embarrassment he was trying to hide.I swallowed hard, my heart hammering.“Good morning,” I said softly, my voice cracking from nerves.He didn’t reply immediately. He placed the knife down, straightened his posture, and looked at me with those piercing eyes.Finally, in his controlled tone, he said, “You should be resting.”“I’m fine,” I said quickly, stepping further into the kitchen. I tried to act normal. I reached for the counter as if to help.“I can do it myself,” he said sharply.“Yeah, I see how you’re doing it,” I said, amused, glancing at the disaster in the pot.Before he could insist, I had already dipped the spoon in and tasted the sauce. The taste hit me like a punch and I almost spat it back.“Who puts mayonnaise inside chicken sauce?” I blurted, laughing.“Whatever,” he muttered, pretending to ign
After the last "I do" CHAPTER FOURTY-ONE: A NEW LEAF
“I overheard the doctor say it!”The words burst out of me like a scream, sharp and desperate, as though holding them in any longer would tear me apart.Damian halted. His face, which was cold a while ego shifted slowly to fear.He masked it quickly, but not fast enough. I saw it, and my stomach twisted at the sight.“Who else did you tell about this?” he asked, his voice firm, but lower than before.“Nobody!” I blurted, shaking my head violently. “Nobody, I swear.” My hands flew up instinctively, waving as if I could erase the suspicion in his voice with the frantic motion of my palms. “I didn’t tell anyone.”He studied me for what felt like forever, his dark gaze sharp and searching, cutting through my soul.Finally, he spoke, his shoulders relaxing slightly. “Alright.” His face softened, just a little. “Do not tell anybody else.”“I won’t,” I whispered, breathless. “I promise.”There was a long pause. Then, in a calmer tone, he said, “Get some rest. I’ll link you with a private inv
