Roman looked about ready to take her again when his phone buzzed on the nightstand.

Looking over to see who was calling. His jaw ticked. “It’s Peters.”

And just like that, the softness of the morning evaporated.

Roman grabbed the phone, rolling out of bed with a muttered curse. “Peters.”

Blair sat up slowly, clutching the sheet to her chest, the chill of the room suddenly more noticeable. Her skin prickled. Roman didn’t say anything right away, but she could tell from the stillness in his shoulders that it wasn’t good.

“Are you sure?” Roman’s tone had sharpened. “Yeah. Email it to me. Blair and I will watch it.”

He ended the call with a short swipe and just stood there for a second, his jaw locked so tight she could see the tension radiating off him.

Blair leaned forward, her stomach twisting. “What is it?”

Roman didn’t answer immediately. He crossed the room, grabbed the sweatpants draped over the armchair, and tugged them on like he needed something—anything—to keep his hands busy.

  • In Bed With Her Shithead Boss   Chapter Seventy-Seven

    After their shower, Blair wrapped herself in a towel and padded back to the bedroom, her body still humming from their morning activities. She was reaching for her clothes when she heard Roman clear his throat behind her.She turned around and her breath caught. Roman was on one knee, wearing nothing but a towel wrapped around his waist, holding a small velvet box.“What are you—” she started, but the words died in her throat.Roman opened the box, revealing a stunning diamond ring that caught the morning light streaming through their windows. It was perfect. Classic but not boring. Elegant, but not ostentatious. Exactly what she would have chosen for herself.“I bought this weeks ago,” Roman said, his voice rough with emotion. “Before Peter, before the investigation, before everything went to hell. I’ve been carrying it around, waiting for the right moment.”Blair’s hands flew to her mouth. “Roman...” Her heart swelled not just at the proposal, but at how romantic he was being, getti

    Blair stared at Roman, her mind racing through a dozen different emotions. The silence stretched between them until finally she spoke.“You manipulated me,” she said quietly, her voice neither angry nor grateful—just stating a fact. “You let me walk in on them having sex.”“Yes,” Roman admitted without hesitation. “I did.”His honesty, his refusal to make excuses or justify it, somehow made it both worse but also better at the same time. Blair studied his face, looking again for signs he was sorry for what he had done. But still nothing.“Do you regret it?” she asked because even though she couldn’t read his face, it didn't mean he wasn’t feeling something.“I regret that you’re hurt by it. I don’t regret saving you from marrying him. I don’t regret that now you are mine.”Blair felt something shift inside her chest. The brutal honesty, the way he wasn’t trying to charm his way out of this or make her feel better, it was so completely… well, him. No games, no manipulation in this mome

  • In Bed With Her Shithead Boss   Chapter Seventy-Five

    By the time they finally made it home, Blair felt like she was running on fumes. The adrenaline that had carried her through the day had completely worn off, leaving her feeling hollow and shaky.Roman unlocked the front door, and they stepped inside. The events of today would change their lives forever. She needed to talk to Sutton and Keira about their parents’ business. That mess was going to take weeks to sort out. But for now, she was just glad to be home.“I need a shower,” Blair said quietly, her voice soft, too tired to use energy to talk more than that.“Me too,” Roman agreed. He looked as exhausted as she felt, dark circles under his eyes and tension still evident in his shoulders. He really hadn’t liked her coming face to face with Peter on her own like that. But they had little choice. If they hadn’t caught Peter when they had, he would have sent someone else after her.They moved through, getting ready for bed, shower, brushing teeth. Blair’s mind felt foggy, too overwhel

  • In Bed With Her Shithead Boss   Chapter Seventy-Four

    Blair sat in the passenger seat of Roman’s car, staring out at the city lights as they drove back. Her throat was raw from giving her statement, and she felt emotionally drained in a way she hadn’t expected. They had told Roman’s family that she was ok but they had been kept away from the funeral for safety reasons. It was over. They had let their friends and work colleagues know she wasn’t dead. Even the media had been informed that due to a mixup, Blair had been declared dead. But she was very much alive. Roman had made a huge donation to the hospital for all the trouble. But it was finally over. They would find out within a few days if aunt Viv had been involved. Laura had been too young at the time. “You’re quiet,” Roman observed, reaching over to take her hand. “I keep thinking I should feel more... victorious, I guess?” Blair said softly. “We got him. He confessed to everything. But I just feel empty.” “It doesn’t bring them back,” Roman said gently. “No, it doesn’t.” Blai

    At the cemetery, she stood behind a large oak tree about fifty yards from the gravesite, watching through binoculars as the small group gathered around her empty casket. The late afternoon sun cast long shadows across the manicured lawn, and she could hear the priest’s voice carrying on the wind.Agent Rogers spoke quietly into his earpiece from his position near the cemetery gates. “All units in position. Target is with the family group. We have eyes on you.”Blair adjusted the small recording device pinned inside her black coat and took a deep breath. This was it. After days of planning, after faking her own death, after watching her sisters grieve a lie, this was the moment everything would either come together or fall apart. Would it be for nothing, or would they have justice for their parents?Through the binoculars, she could see Roman standing with his arm around Sutton’s shoulders while Keira clutched a single white rose. Peter and Vivian stood slightly apart from the group, a

  • In Bed With Her Shithead Boss   Chapter Seventy-Two

    Three days later, Blair sat in the back of an unmarked FBI surveillance van two blocks away from St. Matthew’s Cathedral, watching her own funeral on a small monitor.The irony wasn’t lost on her. If wasn’t so important what they were doing, she might have enjoyed it more.She could see the Gothic spires of the cathedral through the van’s tinted windows, and part of her wanted to be there. Not for the morbid thrill of watching people mourn her fake death, but because she wanted to support her sisters. Even through the grainy surveillance feed, she could see how pale Sutton looked in her black dress, how tightly Keira was gripping the flowers she was supposed to place on Blair’s empty casket. Even though they knew this was staged, it had to be hard on them.“Visual on all targets, agents are following Peter Warner. He is almost here.” Agent Rogers said from the front of the van, adjusting the surveillance equipment. “Roman’s in position in the front pew with your sisters.”Blair’s phon
