I stood up, leaning on the nearest chair, but I couldn’t take a step out of that room. The plates on the table were already cold, the wine glasses tipped over, staining the pure white with that vivid red.

“Miss Reed,” Maurice’s voice sounded distant to my ears. I turned to see him standing to the side, his eyes averted from where I was. “The boss requested you go to the study to change his bandages.”

“Understood,” my response was nothing more than a reflex.

Strangely, I didn’t feel embarrassed about being caught with my clothes disheveled, where it was clear something more intimate had happened between Cassian and me. In fact, I didn’t feel anything. I fixed my clothes, tied my hair back, and left the dining room, walking with a rigid posture.

The clicking of my heels on the floor echoed as I approached Cassian’s study. I knocked on the door, waiting for a response that never came. I was expecting my heart to race, my legs to tremble, but I felt nothing. I placed my hand on the doorkn

  • My heart surrendered to the Boss   Chapter 109: The Pain of the Lie

    Cassian ran ahead, racing toward the living room, where a fresh wave of screams and sobs erupted. I was slower, but nothing could have prepared me for what I was about to see.In the center of the room stood Sophie, screaming at the top of her lungs, face red and soaked with tears, shoving Cassian away from her. Cassian’s face was ashen as he tried to get close and calm his sister. Harry was there too, but he couldn’t do much. On the other side, Jack stood, shielding Amy and Chloe like a wall.“You all lied to me! Every single one of you!” Sophie shrieked, gesturing wildly, pointing at everyone. When her eyes met mine, the weight of her guilt and despair crushed me. “How could I have been so naïve, so stupid?”“Sophie, my angel,

  • My heart surrendered to the Boss   Chapter 108: Promises of a Night

    I was still incredibly sensitive; my core felt like it was on fire as Cassian slowly pushed inside me. His hands braced on the mattress, his arms trembling slightly, a growl rumbling in his chest. I gripped his arms, nails digging into the hard muscle as I felt filled.“Fuck, Lilian. You’re so tight,” he gritted out, jaw clenched. His face was lightly flushed, chest heaving with labored breaths.I reached up, fingers caressing his strong neck, feeling the pulsing veins. Cassian looked at me and leaned down, letting me wrap my arms around him. His lips met mine—soft, gentle. I closed my eyes, my body going weightless as pleasure built. The sweet taste on his tongue was addictive; his scent intoxicated me, while his body drove me insane.He started movi

  • My heart surrendered to the Boss   Chapter 107: Checking the Marks

    My body was burning, my heart pounding as Cassian’s fingers deftly worked each button of my blouse. He wasn’t in a hurry; his fingers slid slowly, brushing the tops of my breasts and tracing the delicate lace of my bra. I gripped his wrists, my fingers slipping under the fabric to feel the warm skin of his arms.“Don’t be impatient,” Cassian murmured, reaching the last button. His hands moved to my shoulders and pushed the blouse down my arms. “We have the whole night ahead of us.”“Cassian, aren’t you tired? After everything that happened today, you need to rest.” His lips trailed slowly down my neck, his hands gliding down my arms until our fingers intertwined.“I can rest tomorrow. Right now, the only thing

  • My heart surrendered to the Boss   Chapter 106: As Promised

    I let the cold night air wrap around me. Cassian’s message had made me so happy, I was afraid to go straight back inside and give away that something big had happened. We still weren’t safe, the war was far from over, and there were more questions than answers, but I couldn’t hide how relieved I was to know I’d soon see him and confirm he was truly okay.It wasn’t easy, but I convinced everyone I was just exhausted and slipped away to my room early. After a while, once the house had gone completely quiet, I tiptoed through the hallways and down to the living room.The waiting was unbearable.I sat on the sofa, stood up again, paced, peered out the windows, and rubbed my hands together nonstop.

  • My heart surrendered to the Boss   Chapter 105: Your Safe Haven

    Men and women rushed between rooms, carrying suitcases and belongings. Chloe and Amy were already ready, bags in hand, waiting by the front door. They greeted me with gentle, comforting smiles when I joined them.“How are you holding up?” Amy asked, rubbing my arms. I shrugged, not sure how to answer.Knowing Cassian was alive and safe had calmed me for a moment, but the thought of him walking into a fight and getting hurt immediately twisted my stomach again.“This is all insane,” Chloe muttered, running a hand through her hair as she watched the chaos. “They said the place might be under surveillance, and we have to be careful.” Amy let out a long sigh.“To think this kind

    No answer came. I bit my lip, nerves and fear twisting my stomach at who might be calling from an unknown, unsaved number.“Damn it! Say something!” I shouted, rage and frustration exploding out of me.I bit down harder, trying to hold back the fresh wave of tears. A long sigh, followed by a low chuckle, vibrated in my ear. The tears stopped for a second, just one second, until I heard his voice.“Are you really going to yell at me, little squirrel?” I covered my mouth; every muscle in my body went limp. “Breathe, baby. I need you to listen very carefully to what I’m about to say.”“I thought… I thought you were…” My friends stared in shock. Amy ste
