Emily had been staring at the ceiling for what felt like hours.

Sleep simply refused to come.

Every time she closed her eyes, her thoughts returned to the same conversation from earlier that night. Knox’s voice echoed in her memory so clearly that it felt as though he was still standing beside her bed.

Use it.

Seduce him.

Emily shifted slightly beneath the blanket and turned onto her side. The room was quiet, the soft glow of the bedside clock the only light in the darkness.

2:37 AM.

She sighed

  • His Mate, My Spy   CHAPTER 89: THE SOUND OF AN EMPTY BED

    Damien reached across the bed with his eyes still half closed, searching instinctively for Emily’s warmth beside him.His hand met cold sheets instead.Slowly, his eyes opened.Morning sunlight filtered softly through the open curtains while ocean breeze drifted lazily into the bedroom carrying the scent of saltwater and flowers from outside. Somewhere far off, waves rolled calmly against the shore.Damien blinked once before lifting his head slightly.“Emily?”His voice sounded rough with sleep.No answer came.At first, he smiled faintly to himself.

  • His Mate, My Spy   CHAPTER 88: THE KIND OF PEACE WORTH FIGHTING FOR

    Damien loosened the first button of his shirt as he stepped inside the house, then glanced back toward Emily with an amused smile when she nearly walked into the doorway behind him.“You’re definitely feeling the coconut wine.”Emily pointed at him immediately.“The villagers kept refilling my cup.”“And you kept accepting.”“Because saying no would’ve been rude.”Damien laughed softly as he locked the door behind them.The house felt quieter after the beach.The distant sound of waves still drifted through the open windows, and th

  • His Mate, My Spy   CHAPTER 87: THE THINGS WORTH PROTECTING

    Emily tightened her fingers slightly around Damien’s phone as Zane’s voice lowered on the other side of the call.“There was another attack at the cabin.”The laughter from the beach still carried warmly around her while the ocean waves rolled gently onto the shore nearby. A few feet away, villagers continued dancing around the bonfire, their shadows moving against the firelight while music filled the night air.But the warmth around Emily suddenly felt distant.She stepped a little farther from the crowd instinctively.“What happened?” she asked quickly.On the other end of the line, Zane exhaled quietly before answering.

  • His Mate, My Spy   CHAPTER 86: THE LAST QUIET NIGHT

    Emily laughed softly as warm sand slipped beneath her bare feet while Damien pulled her gently through the growing crowd gathered around the bonfire.Night had already settled over the island fully, but the beach remained alive with music, laughter, and the glow of firelight dancing against the ocean waves. The villagers had gathered in a wide circle near the shore, where large cooking stones surrounded open flames and the scent of roasted fish, coconut, and steamed bananas carried richly through the salty evening air.The ocean stretched dark and endless behind them while stars shimmered above the water like scattered silver.Emily slowed slightly as she took everything in.Children ran laughing across the sand while older villagers sat near the fire singing songs in soft rhythmic voices. Some people danced barefoot near the flames while others shared plates of food and cups of homemade coconut wine.The entire place felt warm in a way Emily still struggled to fully understand.Nobod

  • His Mate, My Spy   CHAPTER 85: THE HUNT BEGINS AGAIN

    Knox lowered the phone slowly from his ear after the call disconnected again.The office around him remained quiet except for the soft hum of monitors lining the far wall and the distant tapping of keyboards from the tech department outside. Evening shadows stretched across the glass windows overlooking the city, but Knox barely noticed them anymore.His attention remained fixed on the dark screen of his phone as call after call went unanswered. Emily still was not picking up, and neither was Marcus. He tried Marcus’s number again, listening to the line ring once before it disconnected abruptly, and his jaw tightened slightly as the weight of the silence settled more heavily around him. Twenty-four hours.Twenty-four full hours had passed since Marcus and the other agents had gone after Emily, and in all that time, nobody had reported back to the control room. That alone already broke protocol.Marcus was many things, a little careless and stubborn maybe, but never like this. He woul

  • His Mate, My Spy   CHAPTER 84 – THE THINGS SHE BROUGHT TO LIFE

    Emily laughed as the warm ocean breeze caught the wide hat Damien had insisted she wear and nearly carried it away into the trees.She grabbed it quickly with both hands while Damien stood a few steps ahead of her on the narrow sandy path, watching her struggle with obvious amusement dancing in his eyes.“You’re enjoying this too much,” she accused.Damien slipped his hands into the pockets of his shorts innocently.“I warned you the wind gets stronger near this side of the island.”“You also said the hat made me look mysterious.”“It does.”Emily narrowed her eyes at him suspicious

  • His Mate, My Spy   CHAPTER 33 – A DANGEROUS ORDER

    Emily sat on the edge of her bed, still wearing the same clothes she had worn to the lunch meeting earlier that afternoon. The evening had already settled over Damien’s estate, and the quiet inside the house felt almost unnatural after the events of the day. From somewhere outside, she could hear t

    The taxi ride through the city was quiet.Streetlights passed over the windshield one after another, throwing brief flashes of pale light across Emily’s face as the car moved through the nearly empty roads. The driver didn’t ask questions, and Emily was grateful for that. She leaned her head lightl

    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 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
