Nora's POV

Mr. Shawn caught up with me just as I reached the elevator.

"Nora."

I stopped but didn't turn immediately.

Honestly, I didn't know if I was still angry or just tired. Probably both.

When I finally faced him, he looked uncomfortable again. Not manager uncomfortable. Human uncomfortable. The kind that came after realizing you messed up badly.

"I wanted to apologize again," he said quietly. "What happened this morning should never have happened."

I folded my arms.

"No," I said. "It shou

    Nora's POV For a second I genuinely forgot how to do anything. Not just breathe. Everything. Think, blink, move, exist. All of it just stopped, I couldn't explain how. His tongue traced the seam of my lips, soft but sure, and I opened for him before my brain could even catch up. The kiss got deeper right away—warm and a little messy. A rush of heat flooded my chest and spilled down my spine, making my knees feel weirdly unsteady. I stood there staring at him, and he stood there looking back at me while kissing me. The room was completely silent, and my brain was offering me absolutely nothing useful. Then everything came back at once. My eyes went wide and I pushed against his chest and took two steps back so fast I nearly lost my balance. "What the hell?!" My voice came out louder than I meant it to. Cael didn't flinch, didn't move, didn't even look particularly surprised, which somehow made everything worse. I pointed at him. "You—" Nothing came out. I trie

  • Beautifully Ruined By Him   Embarrassed

    Nora's POV I didn't stop running until I reached the restroom. I pushed the door open so fast it nearly slammed against the wall behind it and walked straight into the nearest stall before locking it. Then I just stood there, breathing, or trying to, because suddenly breathing felt harder than it should. My hand stayed pressed against my stomach while my chest kept rising too quickly. Oh my God. Oh my God. Oh my God! What just happened??? I closed my eyes tightly. No. Absolutely not. My brain refused to catch up, like everything had happened too fast. The office, his hand at my waist, the way he looked at me, the way he said— I pressed both hands over my face. "No." My voice came out weak. "Nope." I shook my head like I could physically throw the memory away, because what in the world had just happened? Cael kissed me. Cael. Cael Draven. My boss. The same man who spent most of his time annoying me and smirking at me and making my life harder for absolutely no reason. And th

  • Beautifully Ruined By Him   Stop lying

    I woke up already annoyed. Not because something was wrong exactly, just because my head was too loud and sleep had felt less like rest and more like drifting in and out of thoughts I hadn't asked for.Leon, the house, the silence. Sixteen-year-old me standing in a hallway holding a watch nobody wanted.I turned on my side and muttered, "Stop it," to absolutely no one. "It was years ago. It's nothing now."I waited for my brain to agree.It didn't.And then, as if one problem wasn't enough, another face slipped in without permission.Cael.I groaned into my pillow."Fantastic," I said out loud. "One man I don't understand and one man I don't want to see again. Great combination, Nora. Very healthy."What was wrong with me??I sat up, rubbed my face, and decided that today was going to be a professional day. Strictly professional. No replaying last night's dinner, no thinking about the way he'd looked at me across that table, and absolutely no thinking about him stepping close outside

  • Beautifully Ruined By Him   If I Saw Him Again....

    I didn't even remember putting the phone down.Mom's voice was still sitting somewhere in my head, soft and hopeful in a way that made everything worse.*Leon is coming back.*The words just stayed there. Didn't move, didn't fade, just settled somewhere behind my eyes like they'd found a place and decided not to leave.I turned onto my side and stared at nothing in particular."Of course," I muttered.My eyes burned a little. Not enough to cry, just enough to be annoying. Maybe it was frustration, maybe it was just too many things happening in one day. I closed my eyes.And then the memories started. Not because I wanted them to.... just because they did.---I was sixteen when my mom brought me into the Vance house for the first time.I still remember holding her hand too tightly at the gate, looking up at the building and feeling something I couldn't name properly. It wasn't fear exactly. More like the feeling you get when you already know something isn't going to go the way you ho

    I don't remember deciding to go to a bar.I just ended up in one.That's the only way I can explain it. One minute I was standing outside Daniel's building already heartbroken and the next, I was on a barstool somewhere loud and dim, with a glass of something that burned in front of me and no clear

    I swung the door open.I don't even remember turning the key. One second I was in the hallway and the next I was inside. The light from the bedroom was spilling out into the dark living room and I was just…..standing there.Processing.Because what I was seeing didn't make sense yet. My brain was s

    I was already shutting my laptop when they blocked the door.Not one person. Two. Claire from legal and Ryan from the projects team, both standing there like they'd planned exactly where to put their feet. Like they'd been waiting for five o'clock on purpose."Nora." Claire’s voice was flat. "We nee
