From Discarded Wife, Now the Untouchable Heiress EVEN A CEO CAN TAKE A BULLET
Hazel’s POVThe silence in the penthouse was suffocating.I paced back and forth across the marble floor of the living room, my heels clicking sharply against the stone. Every shadow outside the floor-to-ceiling glass windows felt menacing, every distant sound from the city making my chest tighten. Kai had told me to wait here, but thirty minutes had felt like thirty hours.And now it's been almost two hours and he wasn't back.Suddenly, the private elevator chimed softly.The heavy doors glided open, and my breath caught in my throat.Kai stepped out into the foyer. His dark suit jacket was gone, his crisp white dress shirt unbuttoned at the collar with the sleeves rolled up to his forearms. He looked disheveled—dark hair slightly untamed, a sharp, dangerous edge radiating off him, and a subtle scent of smoke and faint metallic iron trailing in his wake."Kai!"I didn't hesitate. I rushed across the living room, closing the distance between us and stepping right into his space. I gra
From Discarded Wife, Now the Untouchable Heiress CLEAN THIS UP
~~Kai’s POV~~The twin turbochargers of the Bugatti roared through the empty Roman streets, the digital speedometer hovering dangerously high as I tore through every red light between Lake Albano and the city center.Beside me, Hazel kept glancing at me from where she sat in the passenger seat, her hands tightly clutched around her seatbelt. The peaceful, starlit glow from the lake was completely gone, replaced by a sharp, suffocating silence inside the cabin."Kai, please talk to me," Hazel begged softly, her dark eyes wide with mounting concern. "What is going on? What happened on that call? You're driving like we're running for our lives.""Nothing you need to worry about right now, bellisima," I said, forcing my voice to remain even and smooth, though my knuckles were turning bone-white against the leather steering wheel. "Reed called because an issue came up at one of my properties. I just need to get you home safely." I lied, but it wasn't entirely a lie if you looked closely be
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
From Discarded Wife, Now the Untouchable Heiress REAL-TIME BESTIES?
~~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 PLAYING A DANGEROUS GAME
I woke up late the next morning, to sunlight streaming through the windows in my room. For a moment I just lay there, staring at the ceiling, my mind replaying everything from the night before–the board with all those photos of me, Kai’s intense eyes, the way he had carried me inside like I already
From Discarded Wife, Now the Untouchable Heiress I'VE LOST EVERYTHING
I had the divorce papers ready by evening.I called my lawyer, Mr Hartley, someone who didn't ask too many questions. I told him exactly what I wanted-a clean break. No alimony. No fighting over assets. I just wanted my freedom and my dignity, what little I had left of both.He prepared the papers q
From Discarded Wife, Now the Untouchable Heiress NO ONE BELIEVES ME
The emergency room was chaos.Doctors and nurses rushed past us in a blur of white coats and urgent voices. Melissa was already being taken deeper into the hospital, away from us, and Damon was following her, his hand on her shoulder, his expression a mixture of rage and desperation.I came through
From Discarded Wife, Now the Untouchable Heiress IT WAS AN ACCIDENT
I stood at the top of the stairs, completely frozen, unable to move, unable to process what had just happened."No," I whispered. "No, no, no. Melissa!"I hadn't pushed her.I hadn't meant for this to happen.It was an accident.But she was lying at the bottom of the stairs, not moving, and Miss Mia
