The wind chimes above Jenica’s coffee shop door sang out as I stepped inside. She was already settled at our usual corner table, and when she spotted me, she waved me over with a bright smile. I crossed the room in quick strides and slid into the chair across from her.“How’s Andrew?” I asked, referring to her son.“All good now—his fever broke.” She lifted her coffee mug to her lips, then flagged down one of her staff before I could even sug

ZURI'S POINT OF VIEW “Come on, Aaron—get yourself a real drink! That stuff you’re sipping won’t even buzz you.” One of our batchmates nudged him playfully. Aaron wasn’t much of a drinker—he always turned down offers when they came his way. “Right! We’re here to celebrate your birthday, remember?” another chimed in, but Aaron shook his head. “I can’t.” His voice was firm. “I have to drive later.” “Jenica’s right here—she can drive us home.” We all turned to look as Jenica knocked back a shot of tequila in one go. I winced at the sight. “Not a chance!” She was already tipsy, her words slurring just a little. “I haven’t been to a bar in ages—I’m getting properly drunk tonight!” She poured herself another shot without missing a beat. “I’ll drive then.” I offered—drinking wasn’t my thing, and it felt wrong to let Aaron hold back on his own late birthday celebration just to get us home safe. “No, Zuri.” Aaron’s hand clo

ZURI'S POINT OF VIEW The wind chimes above Jenica’s coffee shop door sang out as I stepped inside. She was already settled at our usual corner table, and when she spotted me, she waved me over with a bright smile. I crossed the room in quick strides and slid into the chair across from her. “How’s Andrew?” I asked, referring to her son. “All good now—his fever broke.” She lifted her coffee mug to her lips, then flagged down one of her staff before I could even suggest heading to the counter myself. When I protested, she just shook her head, so I gave her employee my order and let her handle it. “You need to talk to that boy of yours,” I said once the server had left. “He kissed Summer on the cheek!” Jenica burst out laughing. “So he ratted on himself? Typical—I am his mother, after all. What did Summer say?” “Let’s just say she was fuming. The little girl marched right up to me and said Andrew told her your son has a crush o

WARNING: EXPLICIT CONTENTZURI'S POINT OF VIEW Aaron drove me straight home afterward, and the whole ride I floated in a haze of doubt. I’d agreed to let him court me—but was that really what I wanted, or just a way to outrun the truth? Every thought of Helios pulled a heavy sigh from my chest, carrying all the longing I’d fought so hard to ignore. I knew it was wrong. To let myself fall for him would only shatter me again. And what if my boss didn’t see me as anything more than his employee? Hope was a luxury I couldn’t afford, not when heartbreak had already left its scars. Even knowing he was Summer’s father didn’t dull the terror of opening up again. Aaron held my door open the moment we pulled up to the Gallagher mansion. I remembered moving in here months ago, certain Helios and I would clash like thunder and lightning every single day. Now? Now I was falling for him. The irony twisted sharp and bitter in my gut. “Thank you for

Warning: SpgZURI'S POINT OF VIEW I opened my eyes to find Helios’s face inches from mine, his expression soft in sleep as he held me close. Sunlight slanted through the curtains, painting pale stripes across the walls of his room. For a moment I stared at the unfamiliar space, then memory crashed over me all at once. Oh God. I squeezed my eyes shut as every moment from last night replayed in my mind. I hadn’t been drunk this time. Heat rose from my chest to my cheeks as I thought of how easily I’d given in to him. Stupid, Zuri. You’re not just weak—you’re desperate. What happened to forgetting him? What happened to keeping your distance so you wouldn’t fall deeper? You’re terrified of being hurt again but one kiss and you melted right into him. I tapped my forehead against the pillow, frustration burning in my throat. I’m so foolish. So eager to give in. “Why are you hitting your head?” Helios’s voice was low, rough with s

ZURI'S POINT OF VIEW “Baby, I’m heading out now, okay? Don’t wait up—I might not be home until late.” I brush a strand of hair from my daughter’s forehead as she bends over her homework, pencil scratching softly against paper. “Yes, Mommy. Be safe.” She turns up to me, her small hand cupping my cheek before she presses a gentle kiss there. The warmth lingers even as I turn away. Today is Aaron’s birthday, and I’d said yes to his invitation without hesitation. It’s my day off, after all—and I couldn’t very well refuse him, not after he’d been there for me when I needed advice most. I descend the grand staircase of the mansion, my heels clicking against marble, when I spot Helios just walking in. His tailored suit is slightly rumpled, as if he’d come straight from some meeting or another. The moment his eyes land on me—on my dress, my hair done up, lipstick perfect—his jaw tightens and his brow furrows into a deep V. “Where are you goi
Hiding The Devil Billionaire's Daughter Chapter 23
ZURI'S POINT OF VIEW I notice something’s off the moment we pick Summer up from school—she’s quiet. Usually, she’d be chattering a mile a minute from the backseat, telling us every little detail of her day. Today, though, she slumps against the leather, her brow furrowed and her bottom lip stuck out in a deep pout. Is someone bullying her? The thought sends a jolt of panic through me. She’s never been this withdrawn before. “Summer, baby? What’s wrong?” I turn in my seat, my voice soft. She glances at me, and her pout deepens until her lips look ready to touch her chin. “Princess?” Helios adds, his eyes flicking to the rearview mirror. I can hear the concern in his voice—our daughter, he’d called her. The phrase still catches me off guard. Our daughter. It carries more weight than I’m ready to admit. “Mommy, can we talk later? Please?” Her voice wavers like she might cry. Helios and I exchange a look—we both know something’
