Cassidy's POV

The steam from the shower enveloped us like a secret veil, turning the massive marble bathroom into our own private steam room high above the bustling city. Dante's hand was firm in mine as he led me inside, the glass doors sliding shut behind us with a soft hiss that sealed us away from the world. Water cascaded from the rainfall showerhead, hot and insistent, mirroring the pulse still thrumming through my veins from our kitchen encounter. My legs were jelly, every step a reminder of how thoroughly he'd undone me—twice—before the day had even properly begun. But the ache was sweet, addictive, a badge of the passion we'd unleashed.

He turned to me under the spray, water sluicing down his sculpted body, tracing the ridges of his abs, the powerful lines of his thighs. Droplets clung to his lashes, making his blue eyes seem even more piercing as they locked onto mine. "You look wrecked," he said, his voice a low rumble over the patter of water, a smirk playing on his lips.

  • His Dirty Little Secret    A second chance!

    Dante’s POV Evelyn waited, as I knew she would.The boardroom door clicked shut behind the last departing executive, sealing us in a silence that felt heavier than the polished mahogany table between us. I didn't acknowledge her immediately, letting the quiet stretch like a taut wire, my eyes fixed on the tablet screen where charts and projections glowed in sterile blue light. The air hummed with the low drone of the ventilation system, carrying the faint remnants of coffee and cologne from the meeting, but beneath it all was her—jasmine and something sharper, ambition distilled into scent. Five years, and it still hit like a phantom limb, a reminder of nights tangled in sheets and strategies, of promises broken before they could fully form.She didn't move at first, just stood there at the edge of the table, her presence a gravitational pull I refused to orbit. But I could feel her eyes on me, that piercing green gaze that had once disarmed me in negotiations and bedrooms alike. Fin

  • His Dirty Little Secret    My ex.

    Dante's POV “Board chair. Said it was precautionary—fresh eyes on the tech stack. The lead auditor is already in the room.” I nodded, jaw tightening, but kept my voice level. “Understood. Handle the Forbes prep; I’ll want talking points by 2:30.” “Of course.” She peeled off toward her desk, leaving me to enter the boardroom alone. The room smelled like polished wood and expensive coffee, the long mahogany table reflecting the skyline through floor-to-ceiling windows that framed the city like a declaration of dominance. My senior team was already seated—sharp minds, sharper instincts: Victoria from finance, her glasses perched on the edge of her nose as she tapped at her laptop; Marcus from ops, arms crossed, ever the skeptic; and Legal’s lead, Raj, flipping through a binder of contracts. All eyes tracked me as I took my place at the head of the table, the leather chair sinking under my weight with a whisper. “Let’s get started,” I said calmly, projecting the agenda onto the wall

  • His Dirty Little Secret    Who authorized it?

    Dante’s POV I waited until Cassidy was halfway up the steps before pulling away, the engine idling with a low, impatient growl that mirrored the reluctance tightening in my chest. Not because I needed to—but because some instinct in me, honed from years of reading boardrooms and battlefields of negotiation, wanted to make sure she didn’t turn back, didn’t hesitate, didn’t suddenly look small and fragile in the middle of her own life. She didn’t. She squared her shoulders, adjusted the strap of her bag with that determined flick of her wrist I’d come to adore, and disappeared into the current of students moving across campus like a river of backpacks and hurried conversations. Her hair caught the afternoon sun, a flash of gold amid the autumn leaves scattering on the lawn, and for a split second, I envied the simplicity of her world—lectures, debates, the pursuit of ideas without the cutthroat edges of mine.Strong. Resilient. Mine.Even when she didn’t feel like it, she pushed forwa

  • His Dirty Little Secret    You did good in there.

    Cassidy’s POV When we finally stepped out of Dad’s room, the door clicking shut softly behind us, the sound felt heavier than it should have—like it marked the end of something sacred and fragile. I paused for half a second in the hallway, my hand still wrapped around Dante’s, my fingers curled into the warmth of his palm as if letting go might unravel whatever fragile steadiness I’d managed to build inside that room.I felt wrung out, but not hollow.Not shattered.Just… gently emptied, the way you feel after crying so hard there’s nothing left but quiet.Hope was dangerous. I knew that. It had teeth. It could turn on you without warning.But it walked beside me anyway, light-footed and stubborn, matching my steps down the long hospital corridor.The fluorescent lights hummed faintly overhead. A gurney rattled past us somewhere behind. Nurses murmured in low, practiced tones. Life continuing—efficient, clinical, indifferent to how monumental every breath felt to me right now.Dante

  • His Dirty Little Secret    Feels like we just closed our eyes.

    Cassidy’s POV Sleep held me in its gentle grasp, deep and dreamless, the kind that comes after emotional storms and physical release, leaving me floating in a haze of contentment. The rom-com's end credits must have looped into silence sometime in the night, the TV screen now a dim blue glow in the darkened living room, casting faint shadows across the couch where we lay entwined. Dante's arm was still draped over my waist, heavy and protective, his breath steady and warm against the back of my neck, our bodies molded together under the blanket like puzzle pieces finally clicked into place. The house was quiet, save for the distant hum of the city outside—cars whispering on the street, a far-off siren fading into nothing. For a moment, I didn't move, savoring the peace, the way his heartbeat synced with mine through his chest pressed to my back, a rhythmic reminder that I wasn't alone in this.But morning light crept in gradually, sneaking through the curtains in pale golden shafts t

  • His Dirty Little Secret    Slow at first... make me forget everything!

    Cassidy’s POV "Feeling better?" he murmured, lips brushing my ear, voice husky, sending a thrill straight to my core. "Much," I whispered, my voice breathy as I turned fully toward him, our faces inches apart, the heat from his body seeping through the blanket like an invitation. The rom-com's dialogue faded into background noise, the silly punchlines no match for the tension coiling between us, thick and electric. His fingers continued their lazy exploration along my arm, tracing up to my shoulder, then down again, each pass igniting sparks that traveled straight to my core, making me shift restlessly against him. The blanket slipped slightly, exposing the curve of my collarbone, and his eyes darkened, pupils dilating as they followed the movement. "Good," he replied, his lips brushing my ear again, the warmth of his breath sending shivers cascading down my spine. His hand moved from my arm to my thigh, fingers splaying possessively over the fabric of my jeans, thumb pressing ju
