    The engines went quiet at six. The hull met the pier. The crew moved above us. River light came through the porthole, grey and silver, crossing the ceiling in slow panels. She was on her side facing me. Her hair across the pillow. Her mouth softly parted in the way that belonged only to sleep. I

  • Beneath His Cold Vows   Chapter 448

    Edward’s POV The hull rose and settled with the slow pull of the river. I lay in the dark with my jacket on the floor and my shoes beside it and listened to the boat. The timber. The joins. The engine below running its low faithful count. The porthole showed clouds. The moon behind it traced the

    "I fell off a bicycle when I was seven," I said. "Broke my arm. The left one." "You're afraid of the dark," he said. "You sleep with the curtain open so the street light comes in. You never told me directly but I worked it out in the third month." I set down my wine. "You remember that." "I remem

  • Beneath His Cold Vows   Chapter 446

    Alicia's POV The dress arrived at four. I found the box on Elena's table. Black paper, no ribbon, his handwriting stark on the card: The water. Inside, folded in tissue, was the black silk from the wardrobe at the estate. The one I had left hanging there. I showered. I pinned my hair up. At seve

  • Beneath His Cold Vows   Chapter 445

    Edward's POV The grey light filled the room. Alicia's leg lay across mine, heavy with sleep. Her hair spread on my shoulder, across the pillow.

    Alicia's POV He was on the floor. I looked at him until the silence found its shape. He looked back. The full version of him. Just Edward on the floor, his eyes on mine, waiting without arranging what he was waiting for. "We never chose each other," he said. "Let me choose you." "Then start,"

    Just sent the email. Because she didn't need to ask. She was the majority shareholder. I closed the email. Opened the Strategic Initiatives folder. Started working. Supplier diversification for Singapore. Thirty-seven pages. Vendor profiles. Financial stability ratings. Cost comparisons. Risk

    Alicia's POV The elevator doors opened. The executive floor was still. Not empty, just contained. I walked the corridor to my office, pushed the door open, and closed it behind me. Stood at the window. Let the silence do what silence does. My chest had been tight since the moment his voice cut

    Alicia's POV Monday morning and the building felt the same. I didn't. The elevator climbed. I watched the numbers rise, phone already in my hand. Two emails from committee chairs. One from compliance. Nothing urgent. Everything moving. The doors opened. Claire glanced up. Coffee waiting on her
