Married To His Billionaire Boss Chapter 79
Levi’s POVI stayed there, my back against the stairs, my phone still in my hand, its lightness now unbearable. The screen was black, but the image seared into my brain like a wound. Nova. Jace. Her leaning on his shoulder, so comfortable, so familiar. The two of them laughing, spinning, touching in a way that spoke of history I knew nothing about.Intimate. Too intimate for strangers. Too close for what I thought I knew of her past.I didn't remember coming down the stairs, but I was there, standing in front of her as she stood in front of the coffee table, white and frozen as if she had seen a ghost. Her arms were wrapped around herself defensively and I could see the rise and fall of her chest with shallow, panicked breaths.No, like she had blended into one.Her lips parted, but she had no words. There was only silence that stood between us like an abysmal void, filled with all the things we had never said and now perhaps never had a chance to.I could see it in her eyes, the w

Nova's POV"You have 2 minutes left before everything goes south."That was the last message I got from an unknown number last night. A message I had received throughout this week at this exact time but nothing ever happens.The house was extremely quiet.Levi was finally resting after nearly a whole day of struggling with the fever. I had spent the morning sitting next to him, feeding him warm broth, changing his clothes, and attempting to ignore my chest squeezing with each passing second.The way he had leaned on me when he sat up, the relieved smile on his face considering how exhausted he was, it all felt like borrowed time now.I could not maintain it anymore, I was stalling. Every opportunity to confess slipped through my fingers like grains of sand. I told myself I was waiting for the right time but maybe on a different level, I was just afraid there was not one. .My phone buzzed on the coffee table.The ring cut through the silence like a blade. I turned and grabbed it in a

Nova's POVI had awakened in his arms, the world still shrouded in the early hues of dawn. Pale light filtered through the curtains we had left partially open last night, casting soft golden stripes across our bodies entwined together. My legs were wrapped around him, my head lying upon his chest where I could feel the strong pulsing of his heartbeat, usually so comforting, so reassuring. His arm weighed upon my waist, hanging on even in sleep as it would when he'd had a particularly bad day.The bedclothes were crumpled from the previous night and I could still catch the faint aroma of rain on his skin blended with his aftershave and something uniquely him. It should have been peaceful. And it was, at first.And then I felt it. The heat from his body. Not the soothing warmth of his body that I always burrowed deeper into, that made winter mornings bearable and summer nights too hot to bear. This was different, something burning, wrong, like his skin was aflame from the inside out.M

Levi’s POV The reports had been signed and neatly stacked on my desk, corners aligned just the way I had ever since I was a child, tantamount to habits of compulsive training Nova teased about. I hunched in my chair, massaging the now-familiar ache between my shoulder blades from hunching over contracts all day. I grabbed my keys and phone, finally ready to call it a night. The day's workload rested on my shoulders, not just the paperwork, but all of it. I was already missing Nova after being away for only ten hours. I settled into the driver's seat of my vehicle, adjusted the rearview mirror out of habit, and turned the key. The familiar growl was soothing after the antiseptic quiet of the office. I rolled out of the parking lot into the spreading dusk, observing city lights flicker to life like scattered stars.All I could wish for now was to go home, maybe get some Thai food as neither of us had probably eaten a decent meal today, and snuggle my wife for a couple of hours with

Levi’s POV"I just… I love you, Levi. I love you so much it terrifies me."Those words took hold of me. They just kept spinning around in my head on a loop, each time getting that bit tighter on my chest. She never said exactly what was bothering her. But I could tell something was eating at her. Whatever it was, it clearly meant a lot. And it killed me that the moment she was going to drop her defenses, I had to go.Car headlights cut through the darkness of the evening as we approached my company.My two assistants looked visibly uncomfortable when they greeted me. Eric kept shuffling papers that did not need shuffling and Sarah just couldn't look into my eyes. One quickly whispers, "Sir, the client is already inside the boardroom. He brought a plus one."I nodded. "That's fine. Who is it?"They exchanged glances, that quick, loaded look that passed between employees who had just been caught in the middle of something they wanted no part of. But before either could answer, I opened

Nova’s POVI stayed in the car longer than I should have after the driver had dropped me off.Just breathe, I told myself. Just breathe and go. But my body refused. Fear did that to you, you took even the most mundane movements and turned them into impossibly hard things. My face trapped in the window stared back at me with a woman I did not recognize: serene on the outside, breaking on the inside.Because tonight I had decided that I was going to stand up.Something real. Something that scared me.I was not going to let Naomi's toxic little veiled threats shake my very core, no longer. Being reminded of her smug smile at our last meeting made something frigid tighten up inside me. But I could not quite suppress the gentle horror eating away at my chest either. She was plotting something.And if I did not take it upon myself to address it first, if Levi heard it from someone else, it could kill everything.So I drew a deep breath and pushed open the door. The scent of gardenias fil

Nova's POVThat paragraph, that one little sentence, struck something raw and open. The image of Levi with his back to me, looking at her rather than at me. It was a knife twisting in my side, slowly.But I hid it.I sat up straighter, allowing the mask to drop for a moment before covering it over with something harder, something sharper. The exposed Nova, the one who still occasionally woke in the dead of night, heart racing, fearful that all this happiness was an illusion, hid behind steel walls."Really, you think you scare me?" I whispered, voice low but resolute. "You think you are the storm? Naomi, I have made it through more than you will ever have to survive. I have walked through fires you'd perish in a few seconds."She was smiling now.I placed the pen back down on the desk, a deliberate motion which made her note it. Then I got up, intentionally, until we were nose to nose."I am not that timid little bride Jace married," I said, leaning forward myself now, each word seeth
Married To His Billionaire Boss Chapter 72
Nova’s POVThe office was quieter than normal.Not in the still, fruitful manner, but in the thick, somber manner silence descends after a storm has made its mark. Following the Shari debacle, the air was electric. Those who once whispered behind keyboards now made a point to make unnecessary eye contact a thing of the past. People stopped speaking when I passed by their stations and where there had been wicked smirks or accusatory stares, there now existed cordial nods and obligatory acknowledgments.It was not respect in its purest sense, but it was fear disguised as respect and for the time being, I had settled.I sat at my desk, flipping through pages of the quarterly reports. My office was bathed in a harsh angle of sunlight, the brims of my desk hot against my forearms. I didn't wear makeup, didn't wear jewelry, did not wear anything fancy, a cream shirt, and ironed navy pants, but the way people reacted to me now, you could imagine I was encased in armor.Maybe I was.My fin

Levi's POV She smiled. "I only need you to sign these papers. Departmental cost reallocations. We had it done up last night."I waved for her to step forward, taking the folder she offered. The faint scent of her perfume, something floral and expensive, drifted over my desk. Looking at the papers, I had a memory catch me, her and Jace last month in the conference room, pitching that ridiculous project with holes so deep you could fall through them. Nova had caught on immediately, saved us from a PR nightmare and on the order of several millions in potential loss."You worked on that proposal with Jace, didn't you?" I asked, not even bothering to glance up."Yes, I was," she said, her voice perfectly even.I said a fleeting glance up, running my eyes over her face for even the slightest hint of resentment or shame. There was not a trace. Just that same suave smile, intact.I did not say another word, just signed at the bottom of the last page and shut the folder. "All set."She didn
