The private dining room of La Varenne was quiet enough to hear the soft clink of crystal against porcelain. The restaurant catered to politicians, diplomats, and people who preferred their conversations to remain unheard.

Malakai arrived first, supporting his movements with a black staff.

He settled in a private room with a table near the tall window, the city lights glittering below like scattered diamonds. The rosemary necklace Harper had given him rested beneath his collar, hidden.

  • Be Mine Again, Dear Wife   127 | Playing Hearts

    The next morning, in the backseat of the car, Harper and Malakai sat close together, their fingers intertwined on the leather seat between them. The driver kept his eyes politely forward. Harper turned her head slightly, meeting Malakai's tender gaze. "You really didn't have to follow me all the way to work just to say goodbye and drop me off," she told him, blushing. Malakai lifted their joined hands and pressed a kiss to her knuckles, his thumb stroking gently over her skin. "I wanted to," he said. "I want to spend as much time as possible with you. Every minute I can get." Harper's heart fluttered. "You're going to spoil me," she whispered. His smile deepened, a hint of that familiar mischievous spark returning to his eyes. "It's all your fault," he whispered, leaning in to capture her lips in a slow, tender kiss. "You're too irresistible. How am I supposed to let you go?" Harper giggled softly against his mouth. When they parted, she tilted her head and whispere

    The bedroom was dimly lit by a single lamp on the nightstand, casting a warm, golden glow over the sheets. Harper lay in the centre of the bed, propped against the pillows, wearing nothing but one of Malakai's oversized button-down shirts. The sleeves were too long, the hem nearly reaching her knees. Her cheeks were flushed, her fingers twisting nervously in the fabric as she waited. The bathroom door creaked open. Malakai stepped out, limping slightly, a white towel tied low around his waist. Water still clung to his skin, sliding down the defined lines of his chest and abs. His hair was damp and tousled, the long strands falling over his forehead and cheekbones. The rosemary necklace rested against his collarbone, catching the light with every uneven step. Harper's gaze darted up to meet his. For a moment, the air felt thick and awkward, charged with everything they hadn't quite said yet. She shifted slightly on the bed, pulling the hem of the shirt down self-consciously.

    Harper was constantly anxious. The fact that Aiden had been taken made her worry that the same thing could happen to her anytime. Worse, his captor wasn’t Reyes, as she had thought. But it was Eric Snow. He wanted Maddison out of jail in exchange for Aiden's release.But the problem was that Maddison was too unstable. If she was released at this point, Harper couldn't help but worry what that woman would do.But Kai cared too much about his brother to let him rot. The exchange was supposed to happen today. Harper felt suffocated even as she went through her routine at the care center. She didn't have anyone she could talk to about what was going on in her mind."You know, you have a very strange look on your face. It's making me worried," Tyson said to her during their break.She kept checking her phone for a new message from Malakai. But there was none.Tyson sighed."I reached out for help on your behalf," he said, and she perked up."What did he say?""He's digging into Re

    Detective Reyes woke up to ice-cold water splashing onto his face. He gasped, choking on the sudden shock, his body jerking hard against the ropes that bit into his wrists. His eyes flew open, wide and disoriented, water streaming down his lashes and dripping from his chin.For a split second, his mind scrambled.He had gone to bed in his own home. The doors had been locked, the security system armed. He even had a gun on the nightstand.Now he was hanging. Literally.His arms were stretched high above his head, his wrists bound tightly with thick rope that dug into his skin. His toes barely brushed the cold concrete floor. The room was dim and industrial, the air damp and metallic.Men in black surrounded him. There were four of them, maybe five. Their faces were hidden behind balaclavas, their bodies motionless and professional.Reyes's heart slammed against his ribs."What the fuck..." he rasped, his voice hoarse from the cold water still dripping down his neck.One of the

    Harper's cheeks burned hotter at Malakai’s shameless question. She shook her head quickly, trying to steady her voice even as her thighs tried to press together beneath the robe."I'm not—I don't know what you're talking about," she lied, the words tumbling out too quickly. "You're just... focused. That's all. It's... impressive."Malakai's smirk deepened, that dangerous L edge glinting in his eyes even as the soft warmth of Kai stayed wrapped around it."Is that so?" he uttered, his voice low and husky. "Because you're looking at me like you want to devour me, darling."Before she could protest again, he leaned in and kissed her.He kissed her like he was claiming every doubt, every fear, and every inch of her uncertainty. Harper gasped into the kiss, her hands flying to his shoulders, her fingers digging in as heat flooded her body.He didn't let her pull away.Every time she tried to speak, to lie again, to deflect, he kissed her harder, his tongue driving deeper. Between kis

    Malakai's gaze drifted, as though he were running through something in his head."Kai?" Diana whispered. "He's just a child... I can't lose him like this. Please."Malakai blinked."...Send me the hospital details," he said.She started to sob even harder, and Harper couldn't help but feel awkward listening to the woman's cries."Thank you—thank you. I knew you wouldn't—"Malakai ended the call, and silence rushed back in.Harper slowly lifted her head, searching his face."Kai..."He didn't answer. His gaze was still on the phone. Something wasn't sitting right. He could feel it. Diana had sounded like she was putting on a performance. He knew her well enough to know what she would sound like if she was truly desperate.Also, none of this made any sense. If she had his son for all these years, why did she never reach out? She'd been married to a rich man. Knowing how scheming she was, she could've found a way to take enough money for herself. So, why did she have to come to h
