Damien had never struggled with uncertainty the way he did now.

It wasn’t the waiting alone that unsettled him—it was the silence that came with it. The kind of silence that left too much room for questions, for possibilities that didn’t make sense, for instincts that refused to quiet no matter how hard he tried to stay rational. He sat outside the examination room where Emily had been taken, his posture composed but tense, his gaze fixed on the closed door as though staring long enough might f

  • His Mate, My Spy   CHAPTER 68 — WHERE THE ANSWERS BEGIN

    The ride to the office was no different from the rest of the days.Damien sat beside her, a file open in his hands, his attention fixed on the documents as though they demanded all of his focus. He turned pages, made brief notes, occasionally paused—but never once did he bring up the conversation from earlier, and Emily didn’t either.From the outside, it looked normal.But the silence between them was not the same kind they had shared before.It was quieter.Heavier.When the car slowed as it approached the office building, Damien leaned forward slightly, his voice calm as he addressed the driver.“Drop Emily off first,” he said. “Then take me somewhere else.”Emily turned her head, looking at him instinctively.For a brief moment, the question rose to her lips—where are you going? —but she stopped herself before it could form. At work, he was her boss. He didn’t owe her explanations. And right now, asking might sound like something more than simple curiosity.So she let it go.“Okay,

  • His Mate, My Spy   CHAPTER 67 — THE QUESTIONS BENEATH THE SURFACE

    Emily felt it before he said anything.That shift.Subtle, almost invisible to anyone who didn’t know how to read people—but she did. It was in the way Damien’s silence stretched just a little longer than it should have, in the way his gaze didn’t move away from her as quickly as it normally would have. Something had changed.She had just turned slightly, her hand brushing her hair back as she moved toward the bathroom, when his voice came—calm, controlled, but different.“Emily.”She paused.Her fingers stilled where they were, lightly tangled in her hair, and for a fraction of a second, something sharp flickered through her chest. Not fear. Not yet.But awareness.She turned back slowly, careful to keep her expression neutral.“Yes?”Damien was still sitting on the bed, his posture relaxed—but his eyes were not. They were fixed on her in a way that made it clear he wasn’t looking at her anymore.He was looking at something.“Where did you get that tattoo?” he asked.The question land

  • His Mate, My Spy   CHAPTER 66 — SHARED PAST AND SECRETS

    Emily woke slowly, as though the morning had found her gently instead of pulling her from sleep. For a moment, she didn’t move. She only lay there, aware of warmth - real, steady warmth beneath her cheek—and the quiet rhythm of a heartbeat under her ear.Then she opened her eyes.Damien was already awake.He was looking at her—not in the guarded way she had grown used to, not with calculation or distance, but with something softer, something open that he did not try to hide. There was no tension in his expression this time, no shadow of worry, only a quiet steadiness that made her chest tighten in a way she didn’t fully understand.“Hi…” she said softly, her voice still thick with sleep.A small smile touched his lips.“Hi,” he replied.She held his gaze for a moment longer, then something flickered through her expression—something uncertain, something that made her shift slightly as though she was about to speak.“I… I don’t know what came over me last night…”She didn’t finish.Damie

  • His Mate, My Spy   CHAPTER 65 — THE MOMENT THEY DIDN’T STOP

    Emily didn’t pull away.She couldn’t.Because whatever this was, it held her there—not forcefully, not urgently, but with a quiet certainty that made letting go feel like losing something she had only just begun to understand. Her fingers remained curled into him, her body still close to his, as though some part of her had already chosen this before her mind could catch up.And Damien felt it.Not as confusion.But as something deeper—something that settled into him with a clarity he didn’t question.For a brief moment, he didn’t move, his breath uneven as he searched her face, as if giving her one last chance to step back, to return to the distance they had kept for so long.She didn’t.And in that silence, something shifted.His hand lifted slowly, brushing along her arm before settling at her waist, drawing her closer with a steadiness that was no longer restrained. The space between them disappeared completely, and when he kissed her again, it was no longer cautious.It was certain

  • His Mate, My Spy   CHAPTER 64 — THE FEELING SHE COULDN’T NAME

    Damien had not left Emily’s side. Through the quiet stretch of the night, he remained where he was, seated beside her bed, watching in a silence that did not allow rest. He did not trust himself to sleep—not when something still felt unsettled, not when she lay there so still, as though any moment might shift again into something he could not control. So he stayed, his gaze returning to her again and again, measuring each breath, each small movement, until time itself seemed to blur. It was only when he noticed the tears—slow, quiet trails slipping down her cheeks—that something in him tightened, and he leaned forward, his hand lifting gently to her shoulder as he woke her.“You’re crying,” he said quietly.Emily blinked, her lashes heavy, her mind still caught between two worlds.Her cheeks were wet.She hadn’t even noticed.“I…” she started, but the words didn’t come.Because she didn’t know how to explain something she didn’t understand herself.Damien leaned forward slightly, his

  • His Mate, My Spy   CHAPTER 63 — THE DREAM THAT FELT LIKE HOME

    Damien did not look away from her.Even after they returned home, even after the quiet of the house wrapped around them and everything should have begun to settle, his attention remained fixed on Emily in a way that was no longer subtle. It wasn’t just concern—it was vigilance, the kind that came from something unresolved, something he could not yet name but refused to ignore.“You need to rest,” he said quietly, his hand hovering just behind her back as he guided her toward her room, not quite touching her but close enough to steady her if she faltered.Emily nodded, too tired to argue, though a part of her wanted to. The weight in her limbs wasn’t entirely from the day—it was the lingering effect of the sleeping pills she had taken to make everything believable, to make the illusion complete. Now, it was doing its job too well.“I’m fine,” she murmured, though her voice lacked its usual strength.Damien didn’t respond to that. He simply opened the door to her room and let her step in

    The road leading into the forest was narrow and almost invisible beneath the thick shadows of the trees. Damien slowed the car as the headlights cut through the darkness, illuminating patches of gravel and fallen leaves scattered across the path. The city lights had disappeared miles behind him, re

    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
