Malakai nearly laughed at her question. It seemed as though she was more delusional than he'd thought. Marry her? Getting married to the witch would put him in a coffin way before his fortieth birthday. And he didn't want to leave early. He still had his kids to take care of. And then there was Harper.

"Never," he finally said in a flat voice, his voice hoarse.

Maddison blinked. Her carefully constructed expression faltered just for a second before she managed to hide the cracks in her f

  • Be Mine Again, Dear Wife   Epilogue

    The auditorium was packed with rows upon rows of people. Doctors, researchers, board members, and journalists filled the grand hall of Hemsworth General. The soft murmur of anticipation buzzed through the air, the lights bright. At the centre of it all was a podium. Harper stood tall, dressed in a tailored ivory suit that elegantly hugged her figure. Her hair was swept back neatly, her makeup soft but powerful, highlighting the strength in her eyes. "Good evening," she began, her voice calm. The audience quieted instantly. "Six months ago," she continued, "we attempted a procedure that many believed was too risky... too experimental... and too impossible." A few heads nodded. Everyone knew the case. "The progression of advanced cardiomyopathy at that stage has always been considered irreversible," she said. "But we chose to challenge that belief." She paused briefly. Her eyes softened. "Because sometimes... the system gives up on people too soon." Silence fell deeper. "And

  • Be Mine Again, Dear Wife   152 | The Fall Of A Predator

    Reginald felt and looked out of place in the interrogation room. He was no longer the untouchable predator from before. Or the man whose presence spread fear among lesser men. Now, he looked like someone who was rotting from the inside out. His skin had turned a sickly grey, stretched too tight over his sharp cheekbones. His lips were cracked and dry. His once piercing brown eyes had dulled, sunken deep into their sockets. His hands, which were once steady, trembled uncontrollably. The poison was doing its job, unforgiving in its effectiveness. A federal agent sat across from him with a file open, his pen ready. "State your full name." Reginald leaned back slightly, his breathing heavy. "...You already know it." "Say it." A faint smirk tugged at his lips. “Daniel Reyes." The agent didn't react. "That is your alias," he corrected flatly. "Give me your real name." Reyes' smile twitched, irritation flashing across his face. "...Reginald Hemsworth." The agent nodded

  • Be Mine Again, Dear Wife   151 | Stuck With You

    The sun dipped low over the private beach estate, painting the sky in soft hues of rose gold and lavender. The ocean whispered gently against the shore, a perfect backdrop for the day they had fought so hard to reach.White flowers lined a simple aisle made of sand and rose petals. Lanterns hung from wooden arches, their warm glow flickering in the evening breeze. Close friends and family filled the first two rows of white chairs. Anita was dabbing at her eyes already, Andrei standing tall as best man, Aiden smiling beside him with Summer holding his hand. Theo sat in Sierra's lap, chewing on his teething ring, occasionally babbling happily.At the end of the aisle stood Malakai.He wore a tailored black tuxedo, the jacket open to accommodate the vest beneath. His longer hair was styled neatly, a few soft waves falling over his forehead. In his hand, he held his elegant black staff, but tonight it felt less like a necessity and more like a symbol of how far he had come. His eye

  • Be Mine Again, Dear Wife   150 | Back To Life

    Three long, agonizing days had passed since the surgery. Harper hadn't left Malakai's bedside except for brief moments to shower or check on the children.She slept in the recliner beside his bed, holding his hand through the nights, whispering prayers and promises into the quiet darkness.The experimental procedure had been a success on paper, but Malakai had slipped into a deep, unresponsive state afterward.The doctors called it a protective coma, his body giving itself time to heal. But to Harper, it felt like he was slipping away.She sat beside him now, her fingers gently stroking his longer hair, her eyes red and swollen from crying. The room was quiet except for the steady beep of the heart monitor and the soft hum of the oxygen machine."Please..." The whisper barely left her lips. "I did everything right..."Her fingers tightened around his weakly."So come back to me..."She exhaled shakily, her forehead pressing gently into the back of his hand."I signed those paper

  • Be Mine Again, Dear Wife   149 | Let Your Heart Beat for Me Again

    The operating theater was hushed, the bright overhead lights casting harsh shadows over the sterile field. Harper stood at the head of the table, her heart pounding so hard she could feel it in her throat. This was the first surgery of its kind. An experimental procedure designed to reverse severe cardiomyopathy. No one had ever attempted it on a patient this far gone.Her hands trembled slightly as she looked down at Malakai's still form under the drapes. The man who had fought through hell to get back to her lay vulnerable on the table, his heart failing faster than anyone had predicted.'Please hold on, Kai,' she thought, swallowing the lump in her throat.Tyson stood to her right as her lead assistant, his presence steady and reassuring. Alisa, was on the other side, her eyes sharp and focused.Harper took a deep breath, forcing her voice to stay calm."Scalpel," she said.The surgery began.Harper's hands worked with absolute focus as she made the initial incision, expos

  • Be Mine Again, Dear Wife   148 | Light At The End Of The Tunnel

    Malakai slipped towards the edge, catching himself at the last second with one hand on the jagged rock."Kai!" Harper screamed.Reyes laughed through the blood bubbling from his mouth."Look at that," he gasped. "Both of us... hanging by a thread. How poetic."Andrei and Aiden rushed to the edge. Aiden, despite his own injury, grabbed Malakai's wrist with both hands, pulling with all his strength."Hold on, Kai!" Andrei shouted, bracing himself. "We've got you!"Harper dropped to her knees at the edge, tears streaming down her face. She reached for Malakai's other hand, the sight of the waves below dizzying."Kai, please!" she sobbed. "Hold on!"Reyes' laughter turned into a wet, choking sound. His grip was slipping. He hung now by only three fingers, his eyes locked on Harper with manic intensity.Malakai's eyes darkened suddenly, dilating as a surge of unadulterated fury gripped him.The two parts of him—Kai and L—finally merged into one complete, unbreakable whole. The pain

  • Be Mine Again, Dear Wife   026 | Sinful Claim

    Harper couldn't believe she was doing this. After prior arrangements with the nanny to watch over the kids until her return. There she was, standing in front of Genesis Club, wearing a risky black dress. A dress she had once bought to seduce Malakai. But her timidity back then had stopp

  • Be Mine Again, Dear Wife   025 | At The Edge Of Insanity

    Harper's forehead rested against the cool porcelain rim of the toilet bowl, her breathing ragged. The tile floor beneath her knees felt like ice, but she couldn't find the strength to stand. Every time she closed her eyes, the words from the text scrolled behind her lids.'Which of the Blackwe

  • Be Mine Again, Dear Wife   024 | A Human Grenade

    Harper stared at the man in front of her in utter disbelief. She waited for him to laugh or smile and admit he was simply teasing her. When nothing of the sort happened, she gaped at him. He was dressed in a black suit and white shirt with a black tie, an earpiece in one ear."You're seriou

  • Be Mine Again, Dear Wife   023 | A Mess

    Malakai sat in the stiff hospital chair beside Maddison's bed with his elbows on his knees, his head bowed. The bouquet of roses he'd brought for Harper lay forgotten on the side table, the petals already starting to curl from the dry air. Every few minutes, he dragged a hand through his hai
