Sophie’s POV

I looked out the window. A moment later, again. That particular weight of a gaze that wanted something. I kept my eyes on the street and my hands still in my lap and said nothing. I couldn’t hold his gaze in that mirror. Something about it sat too close to feelings I had no room for, not with the clock ticking in my chest that only I could hear.

We hit traffic about ten minutes from the hospital.

Rosa turned in her seat immediately, phone in hand, photos already open. “The venue ha

    Sophie’s POV He turned his head to look at me. His eyes were darker now, and there was a small, dangerous smile on his lips. “Say it again.”I felt my cheeks warm, but I did as he asked. “Daemon.”Ares let out a low, rough sound that went straight through me. He leaned a little closer, his voice dropping even lower so it felt like it was wrapping around me. “Fuck, Sophie. It sounds so good when you say it like that.” He reached over and gently brushed his fingers along my jaw. “I wonder how much better it would sound if you moaned it while I had my mouth between your legs. While I was licking your sweet pussy and making you come all over my tongue. I want to hear you say my name like that when you’re shaking and falling apart for me.”My breath caught. I could feel my face getting hotter, and a deep ache started between my thighs. I shifted slightly on the couch and tried to focus on my food, but his words were already making me wet. I could feel how soaked my panties were becoming j

    Sophie’s POV I got back to the company after lunch and tried to settle into my work again. The office felt different now, like the air was thicker after everything that happened with Derek. I sat at my desk and went through emails, but my mind kept wandering. My body still felt warm from the texts Ares had sent me earlier in the car. Every time I shifted in my chair, I remembered his words about spanking me and how good I was for admitting I wanted it.Later that afternoon, Ares called me into his office. His voice over the phone was low and steady, the same voice that had made my stomach flip all day. I knocked once and stepped inside. He was sitting behind his big desk, sleeves rolled up again, looking powerful and focused. The moment I walked in, his eyes moved over me slowly, like he was checking if I was okay.“Come here, Sophie,” he said, his voice calm but with that edge that always made my skin tingle. “Close the door.”I closed it behind me and walked over to his desk. He as

    Sophie's POVThe car filled with heavy silence. Derek’s face had gone red. He opened his mouth, then closed it again. I could see him struggling to find words. After a long moment, he spoke again, his voice lower and tighter.“I’m trying to make things right, Sophie.”I turned my head back toward the window, watching the city streets pass by. My voice was quiet but final.“It’s too late.”Derek didn’t say anything after that. The silence between us felt thick and uncomfortable, but I didn’t try to fill it. I kept my eyes on the window, my phone still warm in my hand. Every few seconds, I could feel Derek glancing at me, but I refused to look at him. My mind kept drifting back to Ares’s text. “Good girl.” Those two words kept replaying in my head, making my body feel hot and restless even while I sat next to my husband.We finally pulled up in front of the restaurant. Before the car had fully stopped, I unbuckled my seatbelt and pushed the door open. I stepped out onto the pavement wit

  • Ex-Husband's Regret: Your Uncle Wants Me Now   CHAPTER 78

    Sophie's POVMy heart rate sped up as I read the words. The message was short, but it carried so much weight. I could almost picture him sitting in his office right now, probably leaning back in his chair with that small, knowing smile on his face. The same smile he had given me in the car when he warned me about the consequences of thanking him again. My fingers hovered over the screen for a moment as I tried to decide what to reply. My face still felt warm, and I could feel my pulse beating a little faster in my chest.I glanced quickly at Derek beside me. He was still focused on the road ahead, one hand resting on the steering wheel, but I could feel that he was aware of me using my phone. His presence filled the car like a heavy shadow, and every few seconds I sensed his eyes flicking toward me even though he pretended not to look. I kept my expression calm and neutral, my face turned slightly toward the window so he wouldn’t see the way my cheeks were already starting to warm.I

    Sophie's POV He simply walked around to the driver’s side, opened the door, and got in without saying a single word to me. He didn’t even glance in my direction. He didn’t bother to open my door or wait for me like a gentleman would. I stood beside the passenger side, my hand resting lightly on the door handle, but I didn’t move to get inside. The car remained locked from my side, and I stayed exactly where I was, standing tall with my bag in my other hand.A few long seconds passed. Derek finally glanced over and noticed I was still standing outside. He frowned, opened his door again, and stepped back out of the car. His voice carried a hint of irritation as he asked, “Why aren’t you getting in?”I looked him straight in the eyes. My voice came out calm and clear, without any shaking or hesitation.“A gentleman opens a lady’s door.”Derek froze for a second. He stared at me with genuine shock and disbelief written all over his face. It was as if he couldn’t believe the words that ha

  • Ex-Husband's Regret: Your Uncle Wants Me Now    CHAPTER 76

    Sophie's POVHis words were simple, but the way he said them — steady and supportive — made me feel safe and capable at the same time. I nodded slightly, my fingers moving over the keyboard again. My body was still humming with leftover heat from this morning, but sitting beside him in this formal room, feeling his calm presence and quiet encouragement, helped steady me.The meeting carried on around us. People spoke, presentations were made, and decisions were discussed. Through it all, I stayed focused on my notes while staying deeply aware of Ares beside me. The way his voice filled the room with quiet authority. The way he occasionally glanced at me with that small, private smile. The way his thigh remained close to mine under the table, a steady, warm presence that made me feel connected to him even in this professional setting.Derek continued watching us from his seat. I could feel the weight of his stare, but it didn’t bother me the way it once would have. I was too focused on
