The next morning, Cynthia slowly opened her eyes as the soft morning sunlight slipped through the enormous glass windows. For a few seconds, she forgot where she was. She was in Paris.

She rubbed her sleepy eyes and sat up. Just then she noticed someone standing near the window.

Damien.

He was already dressed in a perfectly tailored charcoal suit. One hand held his phone while the other buttoned the cuffs of his crisp white shirt. His hair was neatly combed.

The morning sunlight fell across his

    Cynthia was sitting beside Damien in his office, watching him go through a few documents. She had finished her college assignments for the day and decided to spend some time with him before dinner. Although he was busy, he had asked her to stay, and she was more than happy to keep him company.She rested her chin on her hand, looking at him with a smile."What?" Damien asked without lifting his eyes from the document."Nothing.""Then why are you staring at me?""Am I not allowed to look at my boyfriend?"That made him look up. A faint smile appeared on his face as he leaned back in his chair."You're allowed to do whatever you want, apparently.""Exactly." She grinned before reaching for her phone.She had been checking her calendar when she noticed something that caught her attention. Damien's birthday was only two days away.Her eyes widened."Damien!"He glanced at her. "What happened?""Your birthday is coming up in two days."His expression changed so quickly that she almost wond

    Cynthia was excited to see Leo after spending several days at college. Although Damien had given her permission to visit her brother whenever she wanted, she still found herself looking forward to every visit as if it were something special.That afternoon, she arrived at her aunt's house with a bag of snacks and a small gift for him. Leo was sitting on the sofa, watching television, when he heard the door open."Cynthia!"He jumped up and hurried toward her.She barely had time to put down her bag before he wrapped his arms around her. Cynthia laughed and hugged him tightly, kissing the top of his head."Look at you! You're getting taller every time I see you.""That's because I'm growing up.""Oh, really? I thought you were planning to remain twelve forever."Leo rolled his eyes. "You're impossible.""And you love me anyway."He grinned. "Unfortunately."Cynthia laughed and pulled him back into another hug. No matter how much time passed, Leo would always be the little boy she had p

    Cynthia had never imagined that she could be this happy.Every day with Damien seemed to bring something new into her life, and she found herself falling deeper in love with him. They spent hours together whenever his work allowed it, and even when they were doing nothing special, she enjoyed every second of his company. Sometimes, they talked until late at night, sharing little things about their lives. At other times, they simply held each other close, content with the comfort of being together.And when they were alone, they could hardly keep their hands off each other.Their kisses often began innocently, but one would pull the other closer, and before long, they would forget whatever they had been talking about. Damien, who had once seemed so distant and difficult to approach, now sought her affection without hesitation. He kissed her whenever he passed her, held her from behind while she was doing something, and sometimes interrupted her reading just to draw her into his arms.C

    Cynthia sat on the couch in Damien's office, watching him talk to one of his employees over the phone. He had been discussing their recent project for the past fifteen minutes, occasionally looking through the documents on his desk while giving instructions in his usual firm voice.She rested her cheek against her palm and smiled.There was something fascinating about watching him work. Damien was confident, intelligent, and decisive. He knew what he wanted and never hesitated to make his expectations clear. Even when he wasn't trying to impress anyone, he had a way of commanding attention.Cynthia wondered how many people had fallen for him simply by watching him do his job.Then she smiled at herself.She was probably one of them.She had never imagined falling in love like this. Before Damien, her life had been filled with responsibilities. She worried about money, Leo's health, her studies, and the many things she needed to do just to get through another day. There had been little

    Cynthia kissed him with all the love she had been holding inside her heart. Damien returned the kiss with equal passion, drawing her closer as if he had been waiting for this moment for days. There was something different about the way he held her tonight. He wasn't trying to hide his feelings behind his usual cold expression or pretend that he had everything under control. He simply wanted to be close to her.When they finally pulled away, Damien rested his forehead against hers, looking into her eyes.“Why are you looking at me like that?” Cynthia asked softly, a small smile forming on her lips.“Because I want to remember this moment.”She laughed quietly. “You make it sound as if you're going somewhere.”“I'm not going anywhere.”“Good. Because I haven't finished talking to you yet.”“Then I suppose I'll have to stay.”She smiled, and he kissed her again.The kiss grew deeper, carrying all the things they had struggled to say to each other. Cynthia wrapped her arms around his neck

    Cynthia looked at herself in the mirror as she dried her hair.It had been a few days since they returned from Norway, but she still couldn't get over the trip. Whenever she looked at the pictures on her phone, she felt the same excitement she had experienced beneath the northern lights. It was one of the most beautiful moments of her life, and Damien was the reason she had been able to experience it.She smiled faintly at her reflection.She was happy.At least, she wanted to be.Since their return, Damien had become extremely busy with work. His meetings had increased, his phone barely stopped ringing, and he spent most of his time in his office. Sometimes, he didn't return to their room until late at night. On other days, he was already gone when she woke up.Cynthia understood that he had responsibilities. He owned several businesses, and she knew he couldn't simply abandon them to spend time with her.Still, she missed him.She missed having breakfast together, listening to him t
