From Discarded Wife, Now the Untouchable Heiress INTERRUPTED HEAVEN
~~Kai’s POV~~The soft, rhythmic lapping of Lake Albano against the shore was the only sound keeping us anchored to reality.I had Hazel tucked beneath my heavy arm, her head resting over the steady, comforting beat of my chest. We were stretched out on the soft velvet blanket, watching the stars twinkling through the golden canopy of fairy lights. The air smelled of burnt vanilla candles, fresh crimson roses, and the clean scent of the lake."I don't think I want to go back to the city," Hazel murmured softly, tracing mindless circles over the soft cotton of my dress shirt with her fingertips. "We could just stay here forever. No E&H, no Moretti Group, no meetings."I let out a low, breathless laugh, my fingers gently tangling in her hair. "Don't tempt me, bellisima. I'll buy this entire glade tomorrow and build a cute beach house here for us."She smiled, leaning up to press a quick, sweet kiss against my jaw. "You would, wouldn't you?""In a heartbeat," I murmured, my eyes locking
From Discarded Wife, Now the Untouchable Heiress PROPOSING TO US
The world beyond our glowing ring of candlelight completely faded away.It was just the cool night breeze rustling through the cypress trees, the quiet, rhythmic lap of Lake Albano against the shore below, and Kai holding me as if I were the only precious thing left in the world.I leaned back against his chest, feeling the deep, steady rise and fall of his breathing beneath my cheek. Kai’s left arm was wrapped snugly around my waist, pulling me flush into his warmth, while his right hand held a strawberry dipped in dark chocolate."Open up, bellisima," he murmured, his deep baritone vibrating through my back.I turned my head slightly, looking up at his sharp jawline and the soft, rare tenderness in his dark eyes. I parted my lips, taking a bite of the strawberry right from his fingers. The rich dark chocolate combined with the sweet berry burst on my tongue, and I let out an appreciative hum, closing my eyes."Mmm…delicious," I whispered, turning around on the velvet blanket so I wa

~~Hazel’s POV~~The crimson glow of the late afternoon sun began to bleed into deep violet as Kai drove us further out of the dense center of Rome.I couldn't sit still. I kept shifting in the leather passenger seat, my eyes darting between the dark window and the dashboard navigation screen—which Kai had intentionally switched off before we even left E&H headquarters."Kai," I said for the fifth time, raising a suspicious eyebrow at him. "Where are we going? We’ve been driving for over forty minutes, and this definitely isn't the road back to the penthouse.""Calm down, bellisima," Kai said smoothly, keeping his left hand on the steering wheel while reaching out with his right to lace his fingers through mine. He rested our joined hands over his knee, his thumb lightly stroking my knuckles. "We're almost there. Trust me."I let out a dramatic, long sigh, though the small smile tugging at the corners of my lips betrayed my attempt to look annoyed. "You know I hate not knowing things.
From Discarded Wife, Now the Untouchable Heiress GONER FOR HER
~~Kai’s POV~~I was sitting in my office, staring blankly at three different syndicate security reports spread across my heavy mahogany desk. My mind wasn't on the numbers or the territory expansion. It has been a busy day today and I was completely exhausted but I still had a few technical software expansions to work on before the close of the day. My phone chimed against the polished wood.I picked it up, expecting an update from one of my underbosses, but the caller ID showed Sophia. I slid the phone to my ear."Sophia," I answered, leaning back in my leather chair. "What’s up girl? Are you good?""I’m doing perfectly fine, Boss Man," Sophia’s sharp, confident voice echoed through the speaker. "I’m just calling to make sure you actually have your life together. I hope you have something grand planned out for next week."I pinched the bridge of my nose, frowning. "What are you talking about? My next week's schedule is still on, I have several meetings and appointments next week.A
From Discarded Wife, Now the Untouchable Heiress SURPRISE WAITING DOWNSTAIRS
~~Hazel’s POV~~The smooth hum of the air conditioning was the only sound echoing through my top-floor corner office.After the boardroom session wrapped up, I didn't spend another second dwelling on Damon or Melissa. They were trapped in the net I had cast, and the clock was ticking down. E&H Investments had dozens of multimillion-euro real estate portfolios across Europe that required my attention, and I threw myself into the work for the next eight hours.By half-past four in the afternoon, the bright Roman sun was still pouring through the floor-to-ceiling glass windows. I was reviewing an acquisition contract for a luxury resort property in Amalfi when a soft knock sounded at my door.Lisa pushed the door open, a wide, sly grin playing on her lips."Miss Sinclair," Lisa said, leaning against the doorframe. "You're still working overtime?""Just finishing the Amalfi risk assessments," I replied without looking up from my screen, my fingers tapping against the keyboard. "Is everyth
From Discarded Wife, Now the Untouchable Heiress WORSE THAN EXPECTED
~~Damon’s POV~~I pushed open the double doors of Boardroom A, stepping onto the thick, plush carpet with a confident stride that I had practiced in the mirror that morning. Still, sweat prickled at the back of my neck beneath the stiff collar of my tailored suit. Melissa walked half a step behind me, clutching her tablet so tightly her knuckles had gone white. Two of our senior Moretti Group executives, Arthur and David, followed closely, their presence meant to back us up, though I could feel the tension radiating off them as well.Around the massive mahogany conference table sat seven senior board directors of E&H Investments. At the center of the table, sitting in the chief investor’s chair like she had been born for it, was Hazel.She looked imposing. The sharp charcoal-grey suit she wore was perfectly tailored, not a single crease out of place. Her dark hair was pulled back into a sleek, severe style that left her face completely open — cold, beautiful, and completely unreadable
From Discarded Wife, Now the Untouchable Heiress PREGNANT WITH HIS BABY
Damon left early in the morning.He didn't tell me where he was going or when he would be back. He just kissed Melissa goodbye at the kitchen table while I was making breakfast, and then he was gone. Gone to handle the Moretti family business. Gone to do whatever it was that men like him did when th

I couldn't sleep.I lay in the guest bedroom for hours, staring at the ceiling, listening to the sounds of the house. At some point around 2am, I gave up pretending and went downstairs to the living room. I curled up on one of the couches with a blanket, my mind racing with everything I had heard at
From Discarded Wife, Now the Untouchable Heiress FINDING HER
I didn't sleep that night. I lay in the guest bedroom, which had become my usual bedroom even though I was supposed to be married, and I listened to the sounds of the mansion settling around me. I listened to Damon's footsteps as he moved through the house. I listened to him talking on the phone to

***** ~~ Hazel's POV ~~ ***** I had been planning this day for weeks. Three years. Today marked exactly three years since I became Mrs. Damon Moretti. Three years of a marriage that was supposed to change everything and instead had slowly, quietly, broken me in ways I didn't know a person could
