WYNE'S POV

The office was pristine, polished, and cold—just like I liked it. I stood by the large windows overlooking the city, adjusting the cufflinks on my shirt as I listened to Matilda run through the schedule.

“She’ll arrive at 9:30. You have a team meeting at 10, lunch with the investors at 1, and a one-on-one with her at 3 to discuss her role.”

  • His Only Obsession   Chapter 35

    WYNE’S POV“Open your eyes.”The words barely left my mouth before I regretted them.Because the moment Madelyn’s eyelids lifted, I was staring straight into a pair of eyes that had absolutely no business looking that beautiful.And she was looking at me.Really looking at me.Her lips were parted slightly, her breathing shallow, and her fingers had curled into the cushions beneath her. She looked caught between curiosity and panic, as if she couldn’t decide whether to slap me or do something considerably more dangerous to both our sanity.For one reckless second, I considered making the decision for her.Kiss her.God, I wanted to kiss her.Not some teasing brush of lips that would leave us both wondering what might have happened if I’d gone further. No. I wanted to kiss her until that sharp tongue of hers forgot every clever insult it had ever learned. Until she stopped looking at me as though I were her personal enemy and started looking at me because she couldn’t bear to look anyw

    MADELYN'S POV“Okay... Let's meet then. It's better to clear some things out before they turn into suspicion.”“Agreed, my dear. I'll have everything ready for you when you return.”“Thank you, Mr. Moretti..”I smiled.“Goodbye, Mr. Moretti.”“Goodbye, Madelyn. Take care of yourself.”The call ended, and I lowered my phone with a sigh.His grandfather was hiding something. Something about my grandfather.So dad was right about him? That he took everything from my grandpa and betrayed him which caused him to die?No.. . I can't just let him play with my mind.. I need evidence that something like that has happened.. Maybe the diary is the answer?And whatever it was, it had been important enough for my grandfather to leave behind a diary with specific instructions to give it to me when I was ready.Ready for what, exactly?To have an existential crisis?To question everything I thought I knew about my family?Or perhaps to discover that my grandfather had secretly been a criminal master

    MADDELYN'S POVI will strangle him to death in his sleep. I swear to God, I will. And when someone asks why, I'll make sure they know exactly who was responsible for my untimely transformation into a murderer.Wyne Moretti.That arrogant, insufferable, ridiculously handsome—NO!I am NOT complimenting him!I shook my head, trying to get rid of those thoughts as the elevator doors opened."After you...."I turned my head slowly. He was smiling. Like he hadn't just ruined my entire week by dragging me to another country and forcing me to share a suite with him!I gave him my sweetest smile."Go to hell."His smile widened."Sure. Right After you, darling."I stepped on his foot. Hard. He didn't even flinch. Instead, he leaned down slightly and whispered, "Careful. If you keep touching me like that, I might start thinking you like me."I walked out before my hands could do something that would land me in prison. I needed a vacation. From him. Preferably on another planet. A few minutes

    WYNE'S POVThe receptionist glanced at the screen."Due to the festival currently taking place in the city, we've experienced an unexpected surge in bookings. Your original reservation remains intact, but the additional room was never fully confirmed in our system."My expression cooled."Never fully confirmed?""There's been a discrepancy between the reservation request and the final allocation, sir. I sincerely apologize for the inconvenience."I looked at her for a moment. Then at the screen.Then back at her."I made the booking well in advance.""Yes, sir. Your personal suite is confirmed, and we have another room available for your colleagues. Unfortunately, we don't have any additional rooms left for tonight."Beside me, Madelyn stopped scrolling."Wait. What do you mean, no additional rooms?"The receptionist offered another apologetic smile."Every room is occupied, ma'am. We've contacted our partner hotels as well, but they're experiencing the same situation because of the f

    WYNE'S POVThe announcement that we were about to land finally came through the speakers. I glanced at the woman sleeping on my shoulder.Still asleep. Of course.I looked out the window, where the beautiful coastline of Puerto Rico was gradually coming into view. The clear blue waters, the lush greenery, and the sunlight reflecting off the buildings made for quite a sight.Anyone else would have been excited to see it.My attention, however, was occupied by a certain sleeping menace who seemed determined to spend the entire flight unconscious.I gently squeezed her hand."Madelyn."Nothing. I looked down at her."We're landing."Nothing again. I raised an eyebrow. Seriously? I leaned a little closer."Madelyn Davenport, if you don't wake up in the next ten seconds, I'm leaving you here when we land."Her brows furrowed. For a moment, I thought that had worked. Then she turned her face further into my shoulder. I stared at her. Unbelievable. A quiet laugh escaped me."Fine. Have it yo

It's not like I don't want to but I just can't when she is this close to me...I looked beside me. Her hand was resting on mine. At some point during the flight, she must have reached for me in her sleep without even realizing it. Her fingers were loosely curled around mine, completely unaware of what they were doing to me.I should have moved. I didn't. Instead, I looked at her.Madelyn was asleep. And somehow, she looked completely different like this. From the previous encounter and now, I realised one thing... The plane could crash but her sleep won't break...
