The estate gates opened before I reached them.

I drove through. The guard stepped back. I didn’t look at him.

The driveway curved through the grounds. Trees lined the edges. Grass cut to precision. The fountain ran as always.

Lights were on in the east wing. Vivienne’s wing. Seven-thirty. She was

  • Beneath His Cold Vows   Chapter 404

    Her hands moved from my shoulders to my face, her palms cupping my jaw, her thumbs stroking my cheeks. It was a gesture of such unexpected tenderness it nearly undid me. Her eyes, dark and dazed, locked onto mine. In them, I saw not the woman I had wronged, but the woman I was with, in this moment,

  • Beneath His Cold Vows   Chapter 403

    Her hand anchored hard against the back of my head, fingers tangling in my hair, holding me exactly where she needed me. For a moment, I wasn't the man who had failed her. I was just a man giving her pleasure. She said my name once, twice, the third time broken completely, and her whole body arched

  • Beneath His Cold Vows   Chapter 402

    Edward's POV Her mouth was on mine when I got the door open. I walked her backward into the room, the city lights filtering through the window in thin strips that barely illuminated the space. Her hands were already at my collar, working open the buttons of my shirt with an urgency that sent a jol

  • Beneath His Cold Vows   Chapter 401

    Alicia's POV The restaurant Edmund had not arranged. Edward had seen it from the car on the second day and remembered it. No assistant. No agenda attached to the table. We walked there. He asked about Lily before we reached the first corner. "Is she still seeing the cardiologist every three mon

  • Beneath His Cold Vows   Chapter 400

    I ordered wine. The work wasn't finished. The room was quieter. She took the glass without comment. Drank. Set it down and kept writing. She spoke about the eastern corridor communities directly, without framing or adjustment, as if they existed in the room with us. Her hand moved as she talked, m

  • Beneath His Cold Vows   Chapter 399

    Edward's POV The door opened behind me. No knock. She came in already talking. "I need your numbers from Rotterdam before we fix anything else," she said. "The version you gave him assumes—" She stopped. I didn't turn immediately. Just reached for the towel, dragged it once over my face, then

  • Beneath His Cold Vows   Chapter 310

    Edward's POV The click of the door latch was the only warning. "You're going to rip it." Her voice. Low. No pity in it. I turned. She was there. Bag dropping from her shoulder, her hair a dark frame around a face I'd seen in my head for a week. She'd seen enough: the defeated angle of my should

    She was inside. Neither of us moved. The air in the room felt thick and waiting. I was still staring at her. Exhaustion clung to her, pressing into the lines around her eyes, the tension in her shoulders, the way her jaw tightened slightly. She glanced at the monitor, then at the IV in my left a

    The building knew. I felt it the moment I came through the entrance. Security waved me through as they always did, but held eye contact a beat longer than usual. Two men from finance stepped out as I stepped in. They went quiet mid-sentence and nodded at me with the gravity of people who have heard

    Edmund's pen had stopped moving. Catherine Monroe had taken her reading glasses off. Around the table, the quality of the silence had changed. No longer the silence of people waiting for a meeting to proceed. The silence of people trying to decide what they were sitting in the middle of. "That is a
