"I know," I said quietly. "I never did."

Matteo's hand moved gently on my shoulder, a silent question in the touch.

"There wasn't much to say," I continued. "I was left at the orphanage when I was a baby. No note. No name. No explanation. The nuns gave me a name, raised me, and that was it. End of story."

"Except it wasn't," Kian said softly.

"No." I looked at him. "It wasn't. There's always been this... gap. This blank space where the beginning should be. And I learned not t

  • OFF LIMIT: FOURTEEN NIGHTS WITH MY HUSBAND'S BEST FRIENDS    GIULIANA HAD A WAY OF SOLVING THINGS

    Chapter 262Elowen Later that night, after dinner, I found Giuliana in her room arranging her stuffed animals in some complex pattern only she understood."Hey, baby," I said, knocking on the doorframe. "Can I come in?""Of course, Mama!" She looked up, brightening. "I'm organizing them by color family. Verde says it makes more sense than organizing by size.""Verde is very wise," I said, crossing the room and settling onto the edge of her bed, careful not to disturb the outer ring of the stuffed animal. "He always has been."She nodded with complete seriousness and went back to repositioning a small blue rabbit.I watched her for a moment, let out a slow breath and smoothed a hand over the blanket at the edge of her knee."Can I talk to you about something important?" I asked.Her expression shifted immediately. "Is the baby okay?""The baby's perfect. This is about something else."She set down the stuffed dragon she'd been holding and gave me her full attention. "What is it?"I to

End of story.""Except it wasn't," Kian said softly."No." I looked at him. "It wasn't. There's always been this... gap. This blank space where the beginning should be. And I learned not to ask about it. Not to think about it. Because what was the point? They were gone. I survived. Move on.""But you never really did," Matteo said."I tried." My voice came out smaller than I intended. "I really did try. I built a life. I got married, badly, but still. I moved forward. I told myself it didn't matter where I came from because I was making my own way.""And now?" Kian asked."Now I'm about to become a mother." I pressed my hand to my stomach, where our baby was growing. "And I keep

  • OFF LIMIT: FOURTEEN NIGHTS WITH MY HUSBAND'S BEST FRIENDS    YOU NEVER TALKED ABOUT THEM

    Chapter 260Elowen I held her gaze. "Yes.""Elowen." She said my name the way she did when she was trying to choose between ten different responses and couldn't land on one. "Your parents.""My biological parents. Yes.""The ones who left you at an orphanage.""I'm aware of what they did, Caroline."She exhaled through her nose. Looked away for a moment, at the fountain, at the pigeons, at some distant point past the flowering hedges, I could see her working through it. Trying to find the version of this conversation that helped me without feeding something that might hurt me."Why now?" she asked finally. Her voice had lost its edge. It was just careful now. Honest. "After everything, after all of it, why now?"I thought about it. Really thought about it, the way she'd asked me to do with the harder questions."Because I'm about to bring a child into the world," I said quietly. "And I don't know the first half of where I came from. I don't know what they looked like. I don't know

  • OFF LIMIT: FOURTEEN NIGHTS WITH MY HUSBAND'S BEST FRIENDS    ARE YOU SERIOUS RIGHT NOW?

    Chapter 259Elowen"That's the honest answer. I have no idea."The words came out quietly, but they landed with more weight than I expected. Like I'd been carrying them for a long time without realizing."For so long everything was about surviving him. Then it was about Giuliana's illness. Then it was about figuring out what I was to Matteo and Kian, what we were to each other." I shook my head slowly. "And now I have all of it. I have more than I ever dreamed of having. And when I try to look past it, past the family we're building, past the baby coming, I just…" I stopped. Pressed my lips together. "I don't know what I see."The confession sat between us, raw and a little clumsy. The kind of thing that sounds smaller out loud than it feels inside.Caroline didn't rush to fill it.She just looked at me, steady and patient, like she was giving me room to hear myself properly. "That's okay," she said quietly. "That's actually an incredibly honest and human thing to say. You don't hav

    Chapter 258ElowenThe café was the kind of place you stumbled into by accident and never wanted to leave.It sat tucked at the end of a quiet side street, half-hidden behind a row of flowering hedges, with wrought iron chairs and little marble-topped tables that caught the morning light just right. A stone fountain gurgled softly at the center of the courtyard, and pigeons wandered between the legs of the empty chairs like they owned the place.Damien had excused himself the moment we sat down, something about wanting to find a bookshop he'd read about, though I suspected he simply knew that Caroline and I needed the space. He had that kind of quiet intelligence about him. He saw things without making a production of seeing them.I think that's why he can successfully own a company.We sat across from each other beneath a wide cream umbrella, our drinks between us — her coffee, my herbal tea. She was watching me stir my tea, and I could feel the shape of something building behind

  • OFF LIMIT: FOURTEEN NIGHTS WITH MY HUSBAND'S BEST FRIENDS    TWO RIDICULOUSLY DEVOTED MEN

    Chapter 257ElowenMatteo’s kiss was demanding, his tongue sliding against mine with a hunger that matched the way Kian drove into me from behind. Every hard thrust pushed me forward into Matteo’s mouth, turning our kiss messy and desperate. I moaned into him, the sound swallowed as Kian’s cock stretched me perfectly, hitting that spot deep inside that made my toes curl.“Fuck, you feel incredible,” Kian growled, his grip on my hips tightening just enough to anchor me without hurting. He kept his rhythm steady but deep, mindful of the baby, never slamming too hard. Still, each stroke sent sparks racing through my body.Matteo broke the kiss only to trail his lips down my throat, sucking lightly at the sensitive skin there. “Look at you,” he murmured against my pulse. “Taking him so well. So greedy for us even after you’ve already come twice.” I whimpered, my hand sliding down Matteo’s chest until I wrapped my fingers around his cock again. He was hard once more, hot and heavy. I
