Clairessa’s POV

Andrew gave a single nod. “Yes. Mr. Storm informed me.”

“Great,” I said brightly, layering my tone with feigned relief. “Since it’s close by, I don’t think there’s much use for you following me. I can manage walking a few blocks without supervision.”

Andrew’s face didn’t even shift. “Mr. Storm’s instructions were clear. I’m not to leave your side once we step outside this apartment. I’m not supposed to let you out of my sight for any reason.”

I groaned under my breath and rolled my eyes toward the ceiling. “So what, you’ll follow me everywhere? Even the ladies’ room?”

The corner of his mouth twitched like he almost smiled. “Think of me as your shadow. Except I’m big, obvious, and not going anywhere.”

“Wonderful,” I muttered.

Without another word, he gestured toward the door, all gentleman-bodyguard hybrid, and I walked ahead of him, as there was no use arguing with a mountain.

He trailed silently at my back. If I wanted to slip away, I’d need more than words. I

    Clairessa’s POV“Yes,” Gabriel replied immediately. “Cole will be handling sweeps, checking the apartment for bugs, making sure we’re secure.”My brows shot up. “Sweep the apartment? Gabriel, don’t tell me you think our place is bugged.” I laughed under my breath, but the sound fell flat the second I said it. The idea slid down my spine like ice water. “Because that’s… no. That’s ridiculous.”His eyes pinned mine. “We don’t know what Marco is capable of. And until I know for certain, I won’t take chances.”Before I could respond, he gestured to Andrew. “Andrew goes wherever you go. Grocery store, walk outside, work, everywhere.” Gabriel’s tone softened, but it was still firm. “Claire, you cannot go anywhere without him.”Andrew gave me a small nod, professional but kind. Cole didn’t so much as blink. They looked like they’d been born to stand guard.I set my coffee aside, rose from the sofa and tugged on Gabriel’s sleeve, pulling him a few steps away, lowering my voice. “Gabriel, don’

    Clairessa’s POV I giggled softly, brushing my fingers along his jaw, though I could feel how deadly serious he was. “Well… at least it would be the first headline that’s true.” His mouth curved into a marveled smile. “And who are you, Claire? Who have you become? This woman before me, daring me to lose control in the street…” His grip on my waist tightened. “You’re not the same girl I knew. You’re… more. Wilder. Mine.” Before I could answer, he kissed me like I was oxygen, his mouth urgent and consuming. His hands locked on my waist, and in one effortless motion he lifted me clean off the ground like I weighed nothing, like some damn superhero who refused to let go. A startled laugh broke from me before it dissolved into a gasp. My legs wrapped around his hips instinctively, dragging him tighter against me. The hard press of him met the ache between my thighs, and a raw moan ripped from my throat before I could stop it. “Fuck,” he hissed, burying his face against my neck, biting,

  • Falling For My Ex's Dad   Chapter 290: Making Out In The Streets

    Clairessa’s POV The panic in his tone hit me harder than the words themselves. He was spiraling, every instinct gearing toward danger, toward protecting me, and I knew if I didn’t stop him now, he’d work himself into a storm he couldn’t climb out of. I slid my hand down from his arm, forcing him to face me. “Gabriel, look at me,” I whispered. “Look at me.” His restless eyes finally landed on mine. “Tonight belongs to us,” I told him confidently, willing him to hear me. “Maybe Marco has been watching. Maybe he did follow us here. You’re right, he’s probably plotting something. But tonight was supposed to be different. It was supposed to be ours. After the scandalous week we’ve had, I’m not going to let him ruin it.” He shook his head, his hand raking through his hair like he couldn’t let go of the thought. “You don’t understand. He’s dangerous, Rissa…” “I do understand,” I cut in, firmer this time. I stepped closer, close enough that the streetlamp lit the flecks in his eyes. “L

  • Falling For My Ex's Dad   Chapter 289: Are We In Danger?

    Clairessa’s POV The tenderness in Gabriel’s touch shifted, replaced by anger tightening through his frame. His grip on my hand firmed, almost fierce, as he pulled me from the restroom and back into the restaurant. The air seemed to shift around him as he scanned the room. His gaze locked on one of the staff, and with a single wave of his hand he drew their attention. His voice carried through the space, deep and commanding. “I demand to see your manager.” The young worker seemed confused, panic flashing across his face. “S-sir, is there a problem?” Gabriel’s glare hardened. “Now.” The young worker flinched, then quickly turned and hurried away, disappearing down a narrow hall. Within moments a man appeared, mid-thirties, dressed in a neat suit, a welcoming smile fixed on his face. But the smile shifted the instant his eyes met Gabriel’s expression. “Mr. Storm,” he greeted carefully, his tone respectful yet edged with worry. “I was told you wanted to see me.” Gabriel stepped f

    Gabriel’s POV Marco’s laughter rattled through the restroom. “Is that why you ruined my ties with the others? My partners? You had no right to interfere in what wasn’t yours!” “I didn’t ruin anything,” Gabriel shot back. “I wasn’t the one stealing from them. I wasn’t the one hiding money in offshore accounts. All I did was expose you for the bastard you are.” Marco’s chest heaved, his breath ragged. “And yet… I walked free. You tried to bury me, Gabriel, but here I am. Untouchable.” “You think so?” Gabriel leaned in, his voice threatening. “Go near Clairessa again, just try it, and this time, there’ll be no getting out. I’ll make sure of it.” Marco wiggled against Gabriel’s hold, fury twisting his face. “You think you’ve won? No… I’ll burn down everything you love, everything you built. Both of you will pay. Mark my words.” Before I could breathe, Gabriel’s hand clamped around Marco’s throat and squeezed tightly. His heels scraped helplessly across the tiles, his face reddening
