Quinn's POV

I rubbed slow circles over Laura's exposed arm, my fingertips moving absentmindedly over her skin as I stared at the ceiling.

We had crossed the line.

There was no pretending otherwise.

Whatever carefully constructed boundaries we had spent months building had been shattered tonight, and I wasn't sure I wanted to rebuild them.

I looked down.

Laura was asleep beside me, her hair spread messily across the pillow, a few strands resting against her cheek. Her lips were slightly parted,

  • Hidden No More: The Billionaire’s Plus-Sized Secret   CROSS THE LINE

    Quinn's POVI rubbed slow circles over Laura's exposed arm, my fingertips moving absentmindedly over her skin as I stared at the ceiling.We had crossed the line.There was no pretending otherwise.Whatever carefully constructed boundaries we had spent months building had been shattered tonight, and I wasn't sure I wanted to rebuild them.I looked down.Laura was asleep beside me, her hair spread messily across the pillow, a few strands resting against her cheek. Her lips were slightly parted, her breathing soft and even.She looked peaceful.Too peaceful for someone who had completely destroyed whatever remained of my self-control.My fingers continued their slow movement over her arm.I should have felt guilty.Maybe I did.But mostly, I felt strangely calm.I had spent so long convincing myself that wanting her was temporary. That it was attraction. Possessiveness. Jealousy. Some twisted consequence of spending too much time around her.But tonight had made something painfully obvi

  • Hidden No More: The Billionaire’s Plus-Sized Secret   I DON'T WANT YOU TO STOP

    Laura's POVBy the time we got home, I had managed to convince myself that I was perfectly capable of behaving like a rational adult.That conviction lasted approximately three seconds.The moment the front door closed behind us, Quinn turned toward me.I barely had time to look up before his hands found my waist and his mouth found mine.I made a small sound against his lips, startled more by how quickly everything happened than by the kiss itself. His body was warm against mine, his familiar cologne surrounding me, and every sensible thought I had carefully collected during the drive home scattered like paper caught in a storm.This was a bad idea.A terrible idea.I knew that.I also knew I wanted it.Quinn kissed me again, His hand moved along my waist while the other settled against my ass, keeping me close as though he was afraid that if he gave me even an inch of space, I might remember that we were supposed to have boundaries.Six months of this phony marriage left. Six months

  • Hidden No More: The Billionaire’s Plus-Sized Secret   RED WITH REGRET

    Hemsworth's POVI sat there staring at the enormous screen in front of me, watching Laura's face illuminate the darkness of the theater, and for the first time in a very long time, I felt something dangerously close to disbelief.That was Laura.My Laura.The same woman who had once stood in front of me with uncertainty written across her face, desperately trying to convince me that she could become something. That she could act. That she could belong somewhere other than beneath the shadow of the people who had controlled her entire life.And now she was on a screen taller than a building, surrounded by hundreds of people applauding her.They loved her.I could hear it everywhere.The laughter when she delivered her lines. The gasps during the emotional scenes. The whispers spreading through the theater whenever her face appeared again.My jaw tightened.How the hell had she done this?I had expected her to fail.That was the part that infuriated me most.I had watched Laura for year

  • Hidden No More: The Billionaire’s Plus-Sized Secret   THE END OF SELF-CONTROL

    Quinn's POVI had been staring at Laura all day.From the second she stepped out in that deep wine dress, every ounce of composure I'd spent months building had started crumbling apart. It wasn't just the dress. It was the way she carried herself. The confidence she'd grown into. The quiet smile she wore whenever she forgot cameras were watching.She had looked beautiful before.Tonight...Tonight she looked devastating.It was almost cruel.Every pearl sewn into that dress caught the light whenever she moved, drawing my attention right back to her. The open back, the elegant neckline, the way the fabric hugged her perfectly…God.It was impossible not to look.Even sitting through the premiere had been torture. I'd stolen more glances at Laura than I'd looked at the movie I'd spent months producing.And now her lips were against mine.Every ounce of self-control I'd clung to shattered.My hand slipped gently into her hair as I kissed her back with every emotion I'd spent months refu

  • Hidden No More: The Billionaire’s Plus-Sized Secret   BIG NIGHT

    Laura's POVMy hands would not stop shaking.I stared at my reflection for what had to be the hundredth time that afternoon, wondering if this was really me.The woman looking back at me looked nothing like the girl who had nervously walked into Titan Media months ago with nothing but impossible dreams and blind hope.Today...Today I looked like a movie star.My stylist stepped behind me one final time, smoothing invisible wrinkles from the deep wine-colored gown hugging every curve of my body. The fabric shimmered every time I moved, tiny pearls sewn painstakingly into intricate patterns that caught the light like scattered stars.The neckline plunged daringly, exposing just enough to be elegant while leaving little to the imagination. The back of the dress was completely open, strings of delicate pearls draping across my bare skin like jewelry instead of fabric.It was sexy.It was bold.It was unlike anything I'd ever worn."You look unbelievable," one of the makeup artists whispe

  • Hidden No More: The Billionaire’s Plus-Sized Secret   A SETUP PRIMER

    Quinn's POVThe second Thomas stepped into the interrogation room, I knew I wasn't leaving here satisfied.I stood by the one-way mirror, my arms folded tightly across my chest as I watched one of the suspects lazily lean back in his chair on the other side of the glass. He looked relaxed.Too relaxed.It pissed me off."You've had them for weeks," I said without looking away from the mirror. "Why are they still breathing so comfortably?"Thomas sighed behind me."Because that's how investigations work."I finally turned around."No. That's how slow investigations work."He rubbed the bridge of his nose."Quinn—""No." I cut him off sharply. "Laura almost died. She had a chandelier dropped on her head. She was kidnapped. Someone broke into her room. Someone has been threatening her for months, and you're standing here telling me to be patient? After weeks of investigation?""I understand you're angry.""You Really don't.""I do, I am on your page.""You don't," I repeated, my voice

  • Hidden No More: The Billionaire’s Plus-Sized Secret   WHY AM I HERE

    Laura's POVThe first thing I noticed was the pain.Not fear.Not confusion.Pain.A sharp, pounding ache spread through my head, making it feel like my skull was splitting openfrom the inside.I slowly opened my eyes.The room was blurry.For a few seconds, I couldn't remember where I wa

    LauraThe first thing I felt was the scent. It didn't smell like the sterile, bleach-heavy air of a hospital. It smelled like expensive oud, aged whiskey, and something dangerously masculine.I blinked my eyes open. The ceiling was charcoal grey, accented with soft, recessed LED lighting."You're a

  • Hidden No More: The Billionaire’s Plus-Sized Secret   SHE'S PREGNANT

    LauraThe beeping of the heart monitor was the only sound in the sterile VIP suite.I stared at the white ceiling, my side burning with a dull, throbbing ache. It had been three days. Three days since the surgeons took a piece of my liver and put it into my husband’s body.The door clicked open. I

  • Hidden No More: The Billionaire’s Plus-Sized Secret   ROOM 404

    Hold still, Laura. You’re wrinkling the lapel."Hemsworth slapped my hand away from his chest. His touch, which used to send butterflies erupting in my stomach, now just left a stinging coldness."Sorry," I mumbled, stepping back.He stood in front of the floor-to-ceiling mirror of our penthouse, a
