Owned By my father's Enemy Quiet Shifts
Ronan stood at the doorway for a moment longer than he should have, his hand resting lightly against the frame as his gaze settled on Adaline. She was still asleep, her breathing steady, her face relaxed in a way he had not seen often. There was no tension in her brows, no quiet resistance in her expression, just a softness that made it difficult for him to step forward and wake her.He had come to do exactly that. To wake her and take her home.But now that he was here, watching her, he hesitated.Something about the stillness of the room, about the quiet rise and fall of her chest, made him pause. It felt wrong to disturb her, wrong to pull her out of this rare moment of peace.His gaze lingered. Longer than necessary.Then she stirred. It was slight at first, just a small movement of her hand against the blanket, then her lashes fluttered as her eyes slowly opened. She blinked once, then again, her gaze adjusting before it landed on him. For a second, she simply looked at him. Stil
Owned By my father's Enemy When He Stayed
Ronan caught her just before she hit the ground. Her body had already given way, her weight collapsing fully into his arms as though all the strength had been drained out of her at once. Her head rested limply against his chest, her breathing uneven, her skin far too warm against his.For a second, everything in him stilled. Then instinct took over. He adjusted his hold immediately, one arm supporting her back, the other beneath her knees as he lifted her. There was no hesitation, no second thought. He moved quickly, stepping out of her office and heading straight for his, his strides long and controlled, his jaw tight.By the time he pushed open the door to his private room, his focus had narrowed completely to her. He laid her down on the bed carefully, far more carefully than someone like him usually handled anything. His hands lingered for a brief moment before he pulled away and reached for his phone."Doctor, I need you here. Immediately."His voice was firm, leaving no room for

Adaline woke slowly, her body reluctant to move with her. Her eyes opened halfway before closing again, her face pressing deeper into the pillow as if she could sink back into sleep and avoid whatever weight had settled in her body. The room was quiet, the soft morning light slipping gently through the curtains, casting a warm glow across her bed and the neatly arranged space around her. Everything looked calm. But she did not feel calm. She finally opened her eyes again and stared at the ceiling, her mind slowly catching up with the way her body felt. There was a dull heaviness in her limbs, not painful, just enough to make every movement feel delayed. She inhaled and pushed herself up. The moment she sat upright, she felt it more clearly. A light dizziness passed through her, followed by a strange weakness that settled in her arms and legs. She paused, her hand resting against the side of her head as she let the feeling pass. Her brows pulled together slightly. It must be because of
Owned By my father's Enemy Where Silence Softens
Ronan did not hesitate. The moment Adaline's arms wrapped around him in his office, something in him shifted. He did not question it, did not pause to analyze what it meant or how it would look to others. He simply acted.A few minutes later, he was already leading her out. His hand rested lightly against her back, guiding her through the office as they stepped out together. Conversations hushed. Heads turned. Eyes followed them, filled with curiosity and quiet speculation. It was not a sight anyone had seen before. Ronan, composed and distant as always, walking out with Adaline beside him, not for work, not for a meeting, but for something far more personal.Adaline was aware of the attention, but she did not pull away. For once, she did not care what anyone thought. Her emotions were still fragile, lingering just beneath the surface, and the quiet support of his presence was enough to keep her grounded.They reached the car in silence. Ronan opened the door for her, waiting until sh

Adaline had arrived at work that morning with a lightness she had not felt in days. The weather outside was calm, the kind that carried a soft brightness in the air, and it seemed to settle well with her mood. She stepped into the company premises with a faint smile on her face, her thoughts briefly drifting to the recent improvement in Mrs Margareta's condition. Knowing that she was recovering brought her a quiet sense of relief.For a moment, everything felt stable. Even though she had noticed how occupied Ronan had been lately, she chose not to dwell on it too much. There had been moments when she wanted to ask him what was wrong, whether something was bothering him beyond what was visible, but she held herself back. It did not feel like her place to intrude, and she respected the boundaries between them.That morning, she had seen him leave earlier than usual. He had not taken his breakfast, something small yet noticeable to her, and he had mentioned needing to attend to something
Owned By my father's Enemy Unspoken tension
Camilla arrived at the police station with a composed exterior, her steps steady, her expression carefully controlled. She did not rush. She did not look around in a way that would betray urgency. Instead, she carried herself as though she belonged there, as though whatever business brought her was routine. But beneath that calm was a quiet intent, one she had already decided to act on.She requested to see Clara, and after the usual formalities, she was led into the visitation room.Clara was already seated when she entered.Their eyes met. For a brief moment, neither of them spoke.Clara's posture shifted slightly as recognition settled in. She studied Camilla with a calm, almost knowing gaze, as though she had been expecting this encounter."You came," Clara said simply.Camilla did not respond immediately. She pulled out the chair opposite Clara and sat down slowly, crossing her legs with deliberate composure.Clara leaned forward slightly, her tone quieter now. "Get me out of her
