Flabbergasted didn't begin to cover it. Harper still couldn't get used to Malakai being so expressive. Parents turned. A few chuckled. One older woman in the row ahead sighed dreamily. Summer spotted him from the stage and lit up like the sun.

"Daddy!"

Malakai grinned and gave his daughter a thumbs-up.

"Go, Summer!"

Harper stared at him, torn between wanting to throttle him and wanting to cry with relief. He wheeled himself down the aisle towards her row, ignoring the curious glances, u

    Harper's lips curved into a slow, mischievous smile."But he's my boyfriend," she said, her voice teasing. "Why shouldn't I—"She didn't get to finish. Malakai's hand shot out and cupped the back of her neck, turning her face towards him. Then he kissed her hard. There was no hesitation. Only a raw, desperate need that poured into her.Harper gasped against his mouth, clutching at his coat.Malakai didn't let up. He angled his head deeper, claiming her lips in a sizzling kiss. His fingers slipped into her hair, tugging just enough to tilt her head exactly how he wanted it.Harper's breath left her in a shaky rush.When he finally pulled back by barely an inch, they were both breathing hard. A wicked smile tugged at his lips."Liar," he murmured against her lips.Harper's cheeks burned so hot she thought she might combust. She smacked his chest playfully."Malakai!"He caught her wrist before she could pull away, his thumb stroking over her skin."Tyson isn't your boyfriend," h

He wheeled himself down the aisle towards her row, ignoring the curious glances, until he stopped right beside her seat.She still hadn't closed her mouth. He leaned in, his voice dropping low and warm just for her."Told you I'd make it," he whispered.Harper finally snapped her mouth shut."You're impossible," she whispered.His smile softened."Part of my charm."She shook her head, but the corners of her mouth betrayed her, lifting. Then her gaze dropped to his hand where it rested on the armrest. And she froze.On the back of his right hand, clear as day, was a fresh bit

  • Be Mine Again, Dear Wife   082 | War Zone & Spelling Bees

    Harper stood in front of the full-length mirror in her bedroom, dressed in a simple navy dress. The fabric was soft, the design elegant. But it felt too off, considering the storm brewing inside of her. Her throat was tight, her mind brewing with all kinds of thoughts.She was yet to get over the incident that had happened earlier back at the hospital. Malakai had agreed that there was a chance that Aiden was being targeted. Therefore, he'd stationed security at the private ward.Harper tried to smile, failing to convince herself that everything would be fine.She'd pulled her hair into a low chignon, a few tendrils escaping around her face, and added the smallest touch of makeup. Nothing flashy. Just enough to look like a mother who had her life together.She didn't feel like one."Your adopted parents were working for a mafia don."Those words replayed in her head, her stomach knotting up.She'd always known that her adopted parents were killed in a car accident. But no one ha

    Harper sat beside Malakai in the sterile, fluorescent-lit corridor just outside the operating theatre. The chairs were hard plastic, the kind that made your back ache after ten minutes, but neither of them moved. The air smelled of disinfectant and old coffee. Somewhere down the corridor, a monitor beeped steadily.Malakai was rigid. His spine was straight, his hands were clasped between his knees, and his eyes were fixed on a single scuff mark on the floor. He hadn't blinked in so long, Harper wasn't sure he remembered how.She reached over and slipped her hand into his. His fingers were ice-cold. He didn't pull away, but he didn't squeeze back either. She squeezed gently."He's going to be fine," she said softly. "Aiden's strong. He's just as stubborn as you are, remember? He'll fight through this."Malakai didn't respond at first. Then, slowly, he lifted his head. His eyes met hers. They were bloodshot, hollow, and terrified in a way that made her chest tighten."What if

    Daniel reclined in the back seat of the sleek black Mercedes, one leg crossed over the other, the faint scent of rain and expensive leather thick in the air. His eyes never left the phone in his hand. The screen glowed softly, illuminating the sharp angles of his face.A single photo filled it: Harper.It had been taken without her knowledge, just outside the hospital. She'd been mid-stride, her white coat fluttering, her hair slipping from its bun. Her lips were slightly parted as she laughed at something a colleague said. The candidness of it made his chest tighten.He traced the curve of her lower lip with his thumb, slowly."So pretty," he murmured to himself. "So fucking pretty even when you aren't trying so hard."He closed his eyes for a moment, letting the memory flood back.The rain on her skin. The way she'd trembled when he finally kissed her properly. Her lips had been impossibly soft and warm despite the cold, parting under his with a small, startled gasp that had ne

    Harper hesitated, her thumb hovering over "decline". But for some unknown reason, she couldn't bring herself to ignore the call. Gritting her teeth, she swiped to answer."Harper?" Aiden's voice came through immediately, urgent. "Where are you? Are you at home?"She swallowed hard, glancing at Malakai. He was watching her, his expression carefully neutral, but she could see the tension in his jaw."I'm... at work," she lied.There was a long pause on the other end. Aiden sighed, defeated."No, you're not. I went to Horizon Care. Then I went to Hemsworth General. You weren't at either. I even asked the charge nurse. She said you were suspended."Harper's throat tightened. She felt Malakai stiffen beside her. Aiden kept talking, his voice softer."I know you found out the truth. About the accident and what I did."Harper's vision blurred. She pressed her lips together to keep the sob inside."I'm sorry," Aiden said, his voice cracking. "I'm so fucking sorry, Harper. I was terrifie
