MY UNDOING AUTHOR'S NOE
And to my readers… this is where I finally drop my pen❤️ Before I do, I want to say THANK YOU for staying with me for this long. The year is slowly wrapping up, and sometimes I still cannot believe I wrote three… maybe even four stories this year. It feels unreal. I am so grateful to every single one of you for being here, for reading, for cheering me on, and for giving my words a home. You have no idea how much that means to me. I could not have written this much without you, truly. Every comment, every like, every message… all of it kept me going. I am thankful for each one of you and also my characters, because through them, I got to meet so many beautiful souls🥺💛 Writing this note fills me with all kinds of emotions. I feel proud, sentimental, grateful, and a little soft in the heart. If I am able to start something new before the end of the year, then I will see you soon. And if not… then I wish you a Merry Christmas and a Happy New Year in advance🎄✨ Now, I can drop my pen
MY UNDOING 105
DAMIEN SEVEN MONTHS LATER I felt fear in a way I had never felt it before. It lived under my skin and crawled up my spine every second I stood outside that delivery room. My palms were sweating, and I could not stop pacing the hallway floor even though everyone kept telling me to sit down. I could not sit. I could not breathe deeply enough. I could barely think straight. All I knew was that our daughter was coming earlier than expected, and I had never been this terrified in my life. She was supposed to come in three weeks. Three whole weeks. We still had things to organize. We still had baby clothes to fold. I still had a crib to tighten because one of the screws kept squeaking, and Macey said it bothered her. We had a plan. We had a timeline. We had appointments. None of that mattered because our girl decided she was ready, and she did not care if her father was emotionally prepared or not. I kept replaying all the warnings in my head. I knew getting married while she was
MY UNDOING 104
MACEY I woke up feeling that familiar flutter of excitement in my chest, the kind that made me want to skip breakfast just to get moving. Damien had shown me my new workspace yesterday, and I could hardly stop thinking about it. I had so much to do today, and the first thing on my list was calling Evelyn. She had given me a chance when I was at my lowest, when I felt like I had nothing to offer the world. It felt wrong to just let things drift without acknowledging her, without thanking her properly. I got dressed carefully, taking my time with every button and every swipe of mascara. I wanted to feel confident and professional, even if it was just brunch with Evelyn. It felt important. I stared at myself in the mirror for a second, smoothing a hand down my blouse and nodding like I was giving myself a little pep talk. Before leaving, I pulled out my phone and sent a message to my therapist. Guess who’s officially engaged? I typed, biting my lip as I hit send. Her reply came almo
MY UNDOING 103
MACEY Damien carried me all the way back to the desk, his hands locked on me like he did not intend to let me go for the next hundred years. The room felt small the second he lifted me. The heat from his body sank straight into my skin. Every step he took made my heartbeat pound louder in my ears. He tried to set me down on the desk, but I shook my head immediately. “No. Not like that,” I whispered, my breath brushing his jaw. His eyes darkened. “Then tell me how you want it.” I did not answer. Instead, I slid down his body slowly, enough to feel every shiver he tried to hide. My hands traced the front of his shirt as I reached the floor. I dropped to my knees so naturally it surprised even me. I pulled my hair back with one hand because I knew exactly what I was doing. I knew exactly what I wanted. Damien inhaled sharply. His fingers twitched like he did not know whether to touch me or stay still. He tried to speak, but the words stuck in his throat. I looked up at him deliber
MY UNDOING 102
DAMIEN I was going to show Macey the store today, and I don’t think I had ever been this nervous about anything in my life. Which made no sense because I had done crazier things. I had faced tougher situations, signed deals worth millions, and sat in boardrooms with people who wanted to tear me apart, and none of that ever made my stomach twist the way this did. She was getting dressed, humming to herself as she moved around the room, completely unaware of what was coming. She thought we had dinner reservations. She thought I was taking her out to some fancy restaurant. Meanwhile, I was standing there praying she would not hate what I was about to show her. I hoped she would not think it was too much. I hoped she would not feel pressured. I hoped she would see my heart in it. She wore this soft black dress that hugged her just right, and when she reached for her earrings, I moved to her without thinking. I wrapped my arms around her waist from behind and pulled her against me.
MY UNDOING 101
MACEY My life felt perfect, frighteningly perfect, the kind of perfect that made me want to hold my breath so I would not disturb anything. I had not told my parents about the proposal yet, mostly because I wanted it to be special. The plan was to invite them for dinner and tell them then. I had been floating ever since Damien slipped that ring onto my finger. Floating, smiling for no reason, acting like the world suddenly made sense. Right now, I was in the kitchen with him, leaning on the counter while he stirred the spaghetti like he was auditioning for a cooking show. My phone was in my hand as I sent out texts, biting back a smile so wide my cheeks actually hurt. I had already told my parents to come earlier than usual. I wanted time with them before the rest of the group showed up. I had also invited Jessica and Samantha, and I could already picture how they were going to react. Jessica would gasp before she even fully saw the ring. Samantha would scream loud enough
