Ryan laughed harshly, " Call me a monster, I'm used to it. "

" You really are a monster, aren't you? " Amelia whispered.

" I am, " he confirmed and added, " Now this monster is ordering you to stay here until it's time to call it a day. "

" Oh, you can't tell me what to do because you don't own me! " She fired.

" But I can claim you right now and make you mine, " his voice was dangerously soft and he ran his thumb over her lower lip.

Amelia shouted, " I dare you to.... ! " She wasn't given the chance to finish her words because Ryan possessed her lips.

Instinctively, she clamped her teeth on his lips, earning a soft curse from him.

" What the hell, woman?! " He licked his lips, tasting blood. He glared at her, shocked by her action.

" Don't toy with me, I'm not a plaything! " Glad that she passed through her message, she ran out.

Ryan chuckled, " You're a spitfire, aren't you? " He had never met a woman who put him in his place the way she did. His women always obeyed him, alwa

    “ Come along, ” Angel said, her heels clicking against the polished floor as she gestured with a manicured hand. Angel stopped at a glass door, swiped her ID card, and pushed it open. Inside was a neat, sunlit office with a desk, a computer, a stack of files, and a small couch pushed against the wall. “ This is your space, ” Angel said, her lips curving into what could barely pass as a smile. “ Congratulations. You’re officially part of Woods Enterprises. ” Amelia blinked, surprised. “ My office? ” “ Yes. ” Angel confirmed, walking in. “ Ryan wanted you to learn the ropes. Don’t worry, you won’t be burdened with too much… although, ” she paused, eyeing Amelia up and down, “ I suppose even the basics might be too much for you. ” Amelia glared at her, " I never said that, did I? “ Angel shrugged as if to say, I Don’t Know And I Don’t Care. Amelia crossed her arms, refusing to let the jab land. “ And may I know what you’ll do if I do all the work? ” she asked, one brow arching. Angel’s l

    Ryan didn’t wait for her. He didn’t even look back to see if she was following. Amelia’s teeth ground together. He left her standing there as though she was invisible. Not even the courtesy to ask if she wanted to ride along with him. She stood there in the hallway, bag slung over her shoulder. She thought he would tell her to come along. But instead, he walked right past her, muttering something to Maria about his schedule. Was she supposed to take a bus to his company? Did he really expect her to figure it out on her own? What a jerk! For a second, she was tempted to report him to her father, but she dismissed the thought. The last thing she wanted was for her dad to get suspicious, so reporting Ryan wasn’t an option. She sighed heavily and walked outside after basing Maria goodbye. She looked shocked when she saw Kevin waiting for her by a sleek black car, looking stern. Relief swept through Amelia’s body, and a smile that broke across her face. “ Hi, Kevin! How are you doing today

    The laptop screen had barely gone dark when Amelia’s phone lit up again. Startled, she blinked at the familiar name flashing across the screen. “ Dad? ” she murmured, swiping to answer. “ Hey, sweetheart, ” Bryan’s voice came through. Amelia’s brows furrowed. “ Dad? What’s wrong? Why are you calling back so soon? ” There was a chuckle on the other end. “ Nothing’s wrong, baby girl. I just realized I forgot to mention something important that Ryan and I discussed earlier. ” Amelia’s chest tightened. Something Ryan discussed? Now she was curious. She sat up straighter on her bed, clenching the edge of her blanket. Did Ryan tell her father about… about that night? No. He couldn’t have. He wouldn’t risk disappointing his best friend by admitting he almost… She shook her head quickly, cutting off the thought before her cheeks burned any hotter. “ Mel? You still there? ” Her father’s voice snapped her back, and she forced a smile he couldn’t see. “ Yes, Dad. Sorry, I zoned out for a second.

    For a long moment, Stella said nothing. She just stared at Amelia, lips parted, her mind clearly racing. Amelia fidgeted under her gaze, wishing she hadn’t said anything at all. Finally, Stella leaned back, crossing her arms. “ Wow, ” she breathed. “ Yeah. ” Amelia buried her face in her hands. “ Wow. ” “ And since then? ” Stella asked carefully. “ Nothing, ” Amelia muttered through her fingers. “ Absolutely nothing. It’s like he’s avoiding me on purpose. He barely looks at me. He doesn’t talk about it. It’s been a whole month, Stella. A month! And I’ve only seen him, like, three times. I don’t even know if he cares anymore. ” Her voice cracked, surprising her. She hadn’t realized how badly it hurt until she said it out loud. Stella was quiet for a moment, then reached over and touched Amelia’s arm. “ Mel… maybe he’s just busy. You know what his life is like. He’s a billionaire with about a thousand things pulling at him every second. Maybe it’s not personal. ” Amelia shook her head,

    Bryan chuckled, clearly unconvinced, but he let it go. Later in her room, Amelia wondered if Ryan noticed her absence. If he missed her, even just a little. But he didn’t call, didn’t text. Not once. Amelia told herself she understood. He probably didn’t want her father to suspect anything. But the hollow ache in her chest lingered all the same. Then, all too soon, the morning of his departure came. Bryan wheeled his suitcase to the car, his shoulders heavy with reluctance. Amelia walked beside him silently, not trusting her voice. The ride to Ryan’s place was quiet and they arrived some minutes later. Bryan came out first and went to the side of the car to open the door for her. He stared at her, his eyes softer than she had seen in a long time. “ Be a good girl, okay? I’ll be back before you know it. ” Amelia swallowed past the lump in her throat. “ I will. ” “ If you need anything, call me, ” he said, voice thick with emotion. “ Don’t try to handle everything alone, Mel. ” She nodd
