last update publish date: 2026-03-06 17:32:48

Emily woke slowly the next morning, though waking did not bring the usual sense of rest that sleep was supposed to provide. Her body felt heavy, her mind foggy, as if she had been running all night instead of lying in bed. The soft morning light filtering through the curtains told her that several hours had passed, but the exhaustion behind her eyes suggested that sleep had never really come.

The nightmare had followed her through the entire night.

Every time she drifted off, the dream returned

  • His Mate, My Spy   CHAPTER 52 – WHAT LINGERS IN THE QUIET

    Emily had not meant to wait for him.That was what she told herself as she lingered a little longer at the dining table after dinner, listening to the soft chatter of the housekeeper and the two younger women as they cleared the dishes and spoke about small, ordinary things. She nodded when expected, smiled when appropriate, even added a word here and there, but her attention was elsewhere—constantly drifting toward the entrance, toward the faint possibility of hearing the front door open.He didn’t come.Even after the plates were cleared and the conversation thinned, she remained seated for a moment longer than necessary, as though standing up would mean accepting that he truly wasn’t coming back that night. Eventually, she excused herself and went upstairs, her steps slow, her thoughts louder than the quiet house around her.By the time she reached her room, the silence felt heavier than before.She changed and got into bed, pulling the covers over herself, but sleep did not come.

  • His Mate, My Spy   CHAPTER 51 – THE CALL IN THE DARK

    Captain Morgan had not truly rested since morning. The board in front of him was filled with everything they had gathered so far—names, timelines, connections drawn and redrawn—but no matter how many times he studied it, the result remained the same. There was no clear lead, no visible mistake from the people responsible, and no direction that made enough sense to follow with confidence. Every path he traced seemed to end before it truly began, and the more he tried to force clarity out of it, the more the entire case felt like it was slipping further away from him.He stepped back from the board slowly, dragging a hand down his face as he exhaled through his nose. The gang leader was dead, that much was certain, but the wife and the baby had vanished without leaving anything behind that could guide them. There were no witnesses who had seen anything useful, no camera footage that showed more t

  • His Mate, My Spy   CHAPTER 50 – THE MAN BEHIND THE CURTAIN

    By the time night settled over the city, Damien had already traced Jet’s presence down to the exact room he occupied, the sound of his voice carrying through the stillness like an insult to everything that had happened in the past twenty-four hours.From where they sat in the car outside the gates of the mansion, Damien did not need sight to understand what was happening inside. His senses stretched forward, slipping past walls and glass, catching every detail with unsettling clarity.After a moment, he exhaled quietly and said, “I can feel him.”Robin Hood turned slightly at that, his attention sharpening, and Damien continued, his voice low but edged with something restrained.There were two women with him, their giggles light

  • His Mate, My Spy   CHAPTER 49 – A HOUSE THAT WATCHES

    Emily paused outside her bedroom door, her fingers resting lightly against the handle, her thoughts still tangled in everything the day had forced her to confront. The silence in the house felt different that evening, heavier somehow, as though the walls themselves were holding onto something unspoken. Damien wasn’t home. She had asked when she first arrived, trying to sound casual, but the answer had come too easily - he hadn’t returned yet, and no one seemed to know when he would. That alone unsettled her more than she wanted to admit. For a man like Damien, routine wasn’t just a habit, it was structure, and structure was control. The fact that he had stepped outside of it without explanation left a quiet unease lingering in her chest.She pushed the door open and stepped into her room, closing it gently behind her. For a moment, she simply stood there, letting the stillness wrap around her. The bed was untouched, the space neat and composed in a way that almost mirrored him. She e

  • His Mate, My Spy   CHAPTER 48 – WHAT STILL BURNS

    Robin Hood did not speak immediately after the realization settled between them. He remained seated, his gaze fixed on the building in front of them, but something in his posture had changed. The stillness that had once looked like control now carried tension beneath it, like a storm pressing against a thin surface, waiting for the right moment to break through. Damien could feel it without needing to look, could sense the shift in the air between them, the quiet before something inevitable.When Robin Hood finally moved, it was subtle at first. His fingers curled slightly against his thigh, then tightened, then released again, as if he was holding onto something that refused to stay buried. His jaw set, and when he spoke, his voice was lower than before, stripped of its usual ease.“This isn’t random,” he said.Damien turned his head slightly toward him, already knowing where this was going, even before the words fully formed.Robin Hood let out a slow breath, his eyes never leaving

  • His Mate, My Spy   CHAPTER 47 – THE QUESTION SHE COULDN’T IGNORE

    Emily realized something was wrong with her long before anyone else said it out loud.She had been seated at her desk for what must have been several minutes, a file open in front of her, her pen resting between her fingers, yet not a single word had been written. Her eyes were on the page, but her mind was elsewhere, moving in restless circles that refused to settle. It wasn’t the work. It wasn’t even Damien’s absence alone. It was something deeper, something quieter, something that had shifted beneath the surface and left her unable to return to the stillness she once carried so easily.Her gaze lifted slowly from the document, drifting across the office.People moved as they always did. Papers passed from one desk to another. Phones rang. Voices rose and fell in low, casual conversation. Everything looked normal.

  • His Mate, My Spy   CHAPTER 14 – SMOKE AND SILK

    The smoke came first.It curled through the doorway like a living thing, thick and gray, swallowing the edges of the small cottage. Emily sat on the floor beside the little girl in the flowery dress, watching her play.The girl’s laughter filled the room, bright and careless. Toys were scattered ac

    The knock on the penthouse door came just after noon, firm and controlled, not impatient but not hesitant either. Emily had been pacing the living room, flipping channels on the television without actually watching anything. The silence of the suite pressed on her nerves more than gunfire ever had.

    (The night of the attack.)The bar was warm and crowded, filled with the low hum of conversations and the steady rhythm of background music that made people feel safe. Glasses clinked, chairs scraped softly against the floor, and the scent of alcohol and fried food hung heavy in the air. Damien sat

    The penthouse was too quiet.Emily had never noticed how loud silence could be until she was forced to sit inside it.She had tried the television first. The screen glowed, channels flicking past in a blur of news anchors, cooking shows, market reports, but none of it held her attention. She muted i
