(Ocean's POV)

The elevator doors slid open with a muted ding, and Ocean stepped into the corridor, her heels clicking faintly against the polished floor. The office building had been Sebastian’s fortress—supposedly untouchable, a palace of glass and steel—and yet, the image of that photograph still burned in her mind. Her face, caught by some unknown lens, framed in a moment of unguarded vulnerability. She had trusted Sebastian. She had walked these halls assuming safety. And yet here she was,

  • Her Body, His Signature (A CEO's X Deal)   Chapter 160 Before The Storm (Ocean POV)

    “You feel it too, don’t you?”I don’t look at him right away.Sebastian’s voice is quiet, but it carries weight. The kind that settles into your bones before your mind can catch up.I stand by the glass wall, the city stretched beneath me like something waiting to be claimed or destroyed. Lights flicker across the skyline, alive, unaware of what is about to unfold.“I don’t just feel it,” I say softly. “I see it.”A pause.Behind me, his footsteps are slow. Measured. Always controlled, even now.“Show me,” he says.I turn.He is already watching me like I am the answer to a question he has not fully asked yet.Maybe I am.“Everything is moving too fast,” I say, walking back toward the table where the data is spread out. Screens glow with information, shifting patterns, connections that were invisible until now.“They are not hiding anymore.”Sebastian leans against the edge, arms crossed, gaze sharp.“They do not need to,” he says. “Not if they believe they already have the advantage.

  • Her Body, His Signature (A CEO's X Deal)   Chapter 159 Chosen Over Power (Sebastian POV)

    “You are not going.”The words leave my mouth before I can temper them.Ocean does not even slow her pace.She is already halfway to the door, already in motion, already three steps ahead of the room.“Watch me,” she throws over her shoulder, calm and lethal at the same time.My jaw tightens.Not anger.Something worse.The realization that if I do not move now, she will walk straight into something I cannot control.I close the distance in three strides and catch her wrist.Not rough.Never rough.But firm enough to stop her.“Look at me,” I say.She does.And that is the problem.She does not look afraid.She does not look hesitant.She looks certain.Certain in a way that makes everything in me react.“You already agreed to the conditions,” I remind her.“And I am following them,” she replies smoothly.“No visible backup. Immediate withdrawal if anything feels off. Full communication.”Her

  • Her Body, His Signature (A CEO's X Deal)   Chapter 158 Unwritten Authority (Ocean POV)

    “You don’t get to make that decision without me.”His voice is low.Controlled.Too controlled.I meet Sebastian’s gaze without flinching.“Watch me.”Silence drops between us like a blade.Sharp. Immediate. Dangerous.We are standing too close. Close enough that I can feel the tension rolling off him, thick and possessive, like he is trying to cage something that refuses to be contained.Good.Because I am done being contained.“You already made your move,” he continues, slower now, measuring every word. “The board. The syndicate contact. You proved your point.”I tilt my head slightly.“And?”“And now you stop,” he says.A quiet laugh escapes me.Soft. Almost amused.“No.”His jaw tightens.That one word lands harder than anything else I could have said.Because it is not defiance.It is final.“You think this is a game,” he says.“I think this is war,” I correct.Another silence.T

  • Her Body, His Signature (A CEO's X Deal)   Chapter 157 Becoming Mine (Sebastian POV)

    “You let her do what?”Mateo does not even try to soften it.“She walked into the boardroom and dismantled them,” he says. “Clean. No noise. No force. Just strategy.”I stare at him.Not because I did not expect it.Because I did.And that is exactly the problem.“You were supposed to keep an eye on her,” I say quietly.“I did,” he replies. “And if I tried to stop her, she would have gone anyway. You know that.”I do.God, I do.Ocean does not bend.She does not wait.She decides.And the moment she decides, the rest of the world just tries to keep up.Victor steps into the room, handing me a tablet without a word.I take it.Already knowing what I am about to see.Footage.Security feeds.The boardroom.Her.Sitting at the head of the table like she has always belonged there.Like she was never anything less than power.I should feel relief.Pride.Satisfaction.Instead, some

  • Her Body, His Signature (A CEO's X Deal)   Chapter 156 Crowned Dangerous (Ocean POV)

    “You really thought you could corner me in my own house?”The room stills the moment I say it.Not quiet.Not calm.Still.Like every person seated around this table just realized they miscalculated.Good.Let them sit in that.Let them feel what it’s like to be one step behind.The boardroom of Volkov Velez was designed for power. Dark wood, glass walls, a skyline view that makes everyone feel small if they are not strong enough to own it. I used to sit here as an observer. Listening. Learning. Watching men twice my age pretend they were untouchable.Now I sit at the head.And they are the ones watching me.Marcus is not here.Of course he isn’t.He never shows up when the stage is set for exposure.Coward.Strategist.Both.But his influence lingers in the room like smoke after a fire.“You’re being dramatic,” one of the board members says, a thin smile stretched across his face. “We called this meeting to

  • Her Body, His Signature (A CEO's X Deal)   Chapter 155 Debt Collector (Sebastian POV)

    “You owe me.”The man across the table doesn’t even try to hide his irritation.“Funny,” he mutters, swirling the amber liquid in his glass. “I remember it the other way around.”I don’t smile.This isn’t a conversation.It’s a reckoning.“You remember wrong,” I say calmly.The private lounge is dim, isolated, soundproofed. The kind of place where deals are made quietly and debts are collected without witnesses. He chose it thinking it would give him control.He forgets something.I don’t walk into rooms I don’t already own.Mateo stands a few feet behind me, silent but present. Victor is somewhere unseen. Always unseen. That alone should have told him how this would go.“You’re pushing this too far, Sebastian,” he says, leaning back like he still believes he has leverage. “The old agreements don’t apply anymore.”“They do when I say they do.”His jaw tightens.“That’s not how this works.”I tilt my head slightly.“It i

  • Her Body, His Signature (A CEO's X Deal)   Chapter 120 fire and burn

    The Velez's office was a war room. Screens lined the walls, each displaying a segment of Marcus’s operations, financial trails, employee movements, and a live feed of Ocean reviewing corporate intel in the penthouse. Every flicker, every subtle shift in her expression made his pulse quicken. Obsess

  • Her Body, His Signature (A CEO's X Deal)   Chapter 119 My Isla...My Ocean is now Tougher

    Sebastian POV Sebastian’s office smelled of cold coffee and burning circuitry, a sharp contrast to the warmth he associated with Ocean—her laugh, her presence, the subtle sway of her hair when she was deep in thought. But today, there was no laughter. Only danger.He leaned over the polished mahog

  • Her Body, His Signature (A CEO's X Deal)   Chapter 118 Super Dangerous

    The office smelled faintly of disinfectant and electricity, a sterile hum that did nothing to quiet the chaos in Ocean’s mind. Sebastian had left moments ago, promising he’d be back with answers—or at least with a plan—but she couldn’t wait. Sitting alone at the sleek glass table of the emergency w

  • Her Body, His Signature (A CEO's X Deal)   Chapter 117 dangerously close

    She watched him now, standing behind Sebastian at the command center of his office, the city lights reflecting off the glass walls like tiny embers in a firestorm. Her heart raced, a strange combination of admiration, fear, and—she admitted it reluctantly—a dangerous pull of attraction that made ev
