"Wear this and take a bath."

Jazper Ray handed me his white t-shirt and black jogging pants. The fabric was soft, and the scent of his cologne still lingered faintly. I took it, still too mesmerized by this place. Everything was wooden but polished, simple, cozy, but elegant. My eyes landed on the white king-sized bed on the floor, neatly laid out like it was waiting for a scene to unfold.

"And you? Can’t you take a bath too? You’re wet," I said, eyeing the towel lazily resting on his shoulder.

"I’ll cook first. You said you were hungry," he replied casually, already turning toward the small kitchen area.

I blinked. Wait, he’s cooking?

"You’ll cook? For me?"

He didn’t even glance back. "I said I would, didn’t I?"

I suddenly felt small, embarrassed, and even. He was my boss, a powerful one at that, and here he was, barefoot, shirtless, dripping wet, about to make me food like it was nothing. I should’ve been the one serving him, not the other way around.

"I, I’m not hungry anymore," I

    He gestured toward the empty space beside him.“Sit,” he said firmly.I obeyed, heart pounding. The collar was snug around my neck, a constant reminder of how far I’d allowed myself to fall into his world. But in that moment, I wasn’t scared. I was his.The music wrapped around us like a spell, the beat slow, the lyrics aching with longing. His eyes didn’t leave mine as I lowered myself onto the couch. I felt the heat of his body beside me. Every movement of his was precise, deliberate and controlled.“Turn around,” he said.I shifted, offering him my back. I could feel his eyes roam over me slowly, possessively.“You’re beautiful,” he whispered, more to himself than to me.I closed my eyes for a second. The moment felt fragile and overwhelming, like I was standing at the edge of something deeper than either of us was ready to admit.“I want to explore every side of you,” he said quietly. “Not just the obedient Audrey. The strong one. The angry one. The scared one. I want it all.”I t

    “You can do it, Audrey. Come on, you can do it.”I’d already said that to myself at least ten times. Should I go through with this? Maybe I was just being emotional after everything that happened today.But after all that self-convincing, I made up my mind.This isn’t just for him—it’s for me too. Maybe if I tried hard enough, I’d see that I can belong in his world.I took a long bath, shaved every part of me I thought he might see, and sprayed on his favorite perfume. This was going to be my first time, but I’d been close before. I told myself I could handle it.I put on a black, see-through dress with a deep neckline. Underneath, I wore a matching black bra and underwear. I had a feeling black was his favourite—it gave me a little more confidence.I straightened my hair until it fell smoothly down my back, hiding the natural curls he’d seen so many times. I brushed my teeth twice. Even did a few stretches. I didn’t want my body to be in total shock from what might happen tonight.St

    "You got me that night," he said. "I knew you were the one I’d been looking for."Did he really think I was just the woman meant to play the role of his fake wife back then? Was none of it coincidence? Did he plan everything from the beginning?"Are you scared of me, Audrey?" he asked softly. "I bet you are. Someone’s been watching you since that night. And that someone was me. I think I was going crazy, knowing I couldn’t have you. I always get what I want… but with you, I feel lucky. Really lucky. You're incredible. And I want to make you happy—no matter what it takes. Even if I have to fight my own demons."No... We all have demons. We just fight them on different levels. Some are small. Some are monsters.But knowing he was trying to change—for me—made my heart flutter."Audrey, how do you do that?" he said quietly. "I’ve been lost most of my life. But you… you make me want to compromise. You make me talk. I’ve never done that with anyone else."I held back a smile. I knew he was

    I was half asleep when someone unbuckled my seatbelt and lifted me into their arms. It felt like a dream, but I didn’t need to open my eyes to know who it was.Still, I kept them closed. I didn’t want to ruin the warmth I was feeling. It was the first time he carried me like this.He was changing. Not too much, but enough. The edges of his hard heart were starting to soften—and for me, that was more than enough. We’d finally started talking like normal people these past few days. Who would’ve thought? After all the fear I used to feel around him, this was progress.I didn’t know how he managed to get inside the house while still carrying me, but the next thing I felt was a soft bed beneath my back. I opened my eyes just a little and saw Jazper Ray’s room. Then I shut them again, just as he pulled a blanket over me.The bed dipped beside me. A hand gently moved through my hair.Even with my eyes closed, I knew he was looking at me.“You got me the first time I saw you at the bar,” he s

    “Do you still have to go back on stage?” I asked nervously, watching Jazper Ray as he played with my fingers.My heart was pounding. I didn’t know if I could win later. That woman in black had looked so confident. And now she was nowhere to be seen, like she’d vanished into thin air.Jazper Ray smirked. “You want to steal your date and sneak out early?”I laughed. “Why not? It’s our last night here. Besides, I don’t think I’ll win.”He gently touched my lower lip. “Your wish is always my command.”He stood up and pulled me with him. I smiled so wide my cheeks hurt. I was about to leave this ridiculous auction with my husband. No more games. No more competing with other women. Just us.Then suddenly, I bumped into his back. He’d stopped.“Where. Are. You. Going?” a voice asked, sharp and cold.I peeked around him. It was Ashley. Arms crossed, one brow raised like she was waiting for a fight.“We’re going home,” Jazper Ray answered calmly, still holding my hand. “We both participated in

    "Audrey, what will you wear for the party tonight?"I blinked, stunned by Grandma Belle’s question. I looked at Jazper Ray, who seemed just as confused.Ashley walked in, carrying a few dresses and a pair of heels. "Sorry, Granny, I forgot to tell them. So, Mr. and Mrs. Jazper Ray Gibson, we have a party tonight. Make sure you get home in time.""Party?" Jazper Ray asked, brows pulled together. "You didn’t mention this last night.""Because I forgot about it," Ashley said quickly when his expression hardened. "I need to raise funds for my outreach program. The donations will go to my foundation. A lot of areas were hit hard by the typhoon."Her excitement made it hard to protest."This will be fun, I promise!" she added.I just smiled. So this was the party she mentioned before. I had no idea what to wear, but maybe one of the dresses she brought would work."Can you take the day off?" Grandma Belle asked, looking at Jazper Ray."I have an important meeting today, Grandma," he answere
