Alessandra’s POV

The words on the laptop screen wouldn’t stop burning into my eyes.

Payment Confirmed. Continue protection detail until further notice.

I could still hear the echo of Killian’s footsteps in the hall, but my body wouldn’t move. I felt nailed to the floor, as though my bones had turned to stone.

When the door opened and he stepped in, all sharp edges and lazy confidence, the part of me that used to soften at the sight of him didn’t move. It stayed frozen.

“You’re in here,” he said lightly, as though it was any other night. “I was wondering—”

“Who paid you?”

My voice was barely above a whisper, but it cut the air like a blade.

He stopped mid-step. I watched the way his body stilled, his lips parting, confusion flickering before something darker passed across his face.

“What?” His voice was careful now.

I turned to face him fully, my hand trembling as I pointed at the laptop. “Who the hell paid you, Killian?”

Silence.

His gaze flicked to the screen, then back to me. And th

    Alessandra’s POVThe coconuts were stacked neatly on the stall, their green shells glistening with drops of condensation. Killian’s hand was warm around mine as we approached. The attendant greeted us with a polite smile, though his eyes lingered far too long on me.I felt Killian stiffen instantly.“Two coconuts,” Killian said, voice sharp enough to slice through the humid air.The man nodded quickly, grabbing two and working them open. His gaze flicked up once more, but this time Killian’s stare met his head-on. It was a warning. I bit the inside of my cheek to stop myself from laughing.When I looked around, I realized that this island truly was deserted. I hadn’t seen anyone since we’d come out here or any houses but they were people in the house who helped out but they never slept over and this man was one of them.....so people were definitely coming and going. I just didn’t know how. When the coconuts were handed over, Killian pressed one into my hand and muttered, “Eyes for

    Alessandra’s POV The island was beautiful. I had to admit it. Being here reminded me of the chaos that seemed to be non stop throughout the last five months, and I could be here without thinking about it. I was still worried about my mom and Alex, but if Killian said they’ll be fine, then they’ll be fine. That didn’t mean my head had completely been free of doubts though. Every now and then the thought would pop up into my head, and I’d hate it. What if all of this was just part of another assignment? What if…he was still lying? My chest ached and I stared at the ocean as I leaned into him. Some part of me wouldn’t have cared any less as long as it meant I was with him. But at the same time… “Ale..” I heard him whisper, dragging me out of that endless sea of doubt. I glanced up at him briefly with question in my eyes, admiring the way the sun’s dim light fell on his features. Damn this man was fine. “Stop worrying.” He said bluntly, searching my eyes like he was trying to

    Killian’s POV Her breathing slowed first, the sharp little gasps melting into soft sighs. I stayed inside her for as long as I could, not ready to let go, not ready to lose the way she felt wrapped around me. When I finally shifted, she whimpered, clinging to me like she thought I’d vanish.“Shh,” I whispered against her temple, brushing back her damp hair. “I’m not going anywhere.”She tilted her head up, her eyes heavy but still searching mine. That soft, vulnerable look hit me harder than her nails had. This woman would be the death of me. I smirked and kissed her forehead, her cheeks, the corner of her mouth—everywhere I could reach until she let out a little laugh.“You’re smothering me,” she murmured, though the smile tugging her lips said otherwise.“Good.” I tugged the sheets up around us and pulled her tighter into my chest. “You don’t get to complain. You’re mine.”Her fingers traced lazy patterns along my collarbone, featherlight, almost ticklish. “You’re bossy when yo

    Killian’s POVI kissed down her stomach slowly, leaving wet trails until I reached the waistband of her jeans. My hands were already unbuttoning, unzipping, tugging them down with a hunger I couldn’t hide. She lifted her hips to help, and within seconds, she was lying before me in nothing but her panties.And fuck—she was soaked. I could see the wetness staining the fabric, and I groaned, gripping her thighs to keep myself from losing control right there.“Two weeks,” I muttered, kissing the inside of her thigh, “and you’re still this wet for me.”Her face flushed deeper, her hands covering it, but I pulled them away. “Don’t you dare hide from me,” I said, eyes locking with hers. “I want to see every fucking thing.”I lowered myself again, my breath hot against her center. Her thighs trembled, her fingers fisting the sheets. When I pressed a kiss over the thin fabric of her panties, she cried out, and I knew I was about to ruin her all over again.Her taste was already teasing me

    Killian’s POV Happiness?That was an understatement.What I felt was pure ecstasy. An overwhelming sensation that went down my spine and wrapped around my aching heart. I didn’t know when my vision blurred.Or when I felt the moisture on my cheeks.All I heard was, “Fine…I forgive you.”And not just from anyone, from Ale. My Ale.Goodness, is this how Ronan feels?“Killian, please stand up, I said I forgive you,” her voice brought me back to the present, broken, and I got up in one swift motion.I didn’t think or breathe or look anywhere else, just pulled her flush against my chest and squeezed.Hard.Fuck, I missed her scent. I missed the feeling of her skin against mine. The way she just so perfectly fit into my massive frame. I missed having her attention, and I missed everything. Two weeks was fucking torture.I pulled back and cupped her cheeks, letting my eyes linger on her face now that I finally got to see her up close. Her hazel eyes could bewitch anyone.And I certai

    Alessandra’s POV I never thought Killian would be this…desperate. No. Desperate wasn’t the word. More like patient, waiting… But it didn’t make sense, somehow. But it did too. He was the silent killer. The ruthless man who didn’t give two shits about someone and took them out especially if they bothered him. The one who never showed emotion, and even with me sometimes it felt unreal. But here he was, offering silent apologies with each little gesture he thought I didn’t notice. He told me he loved me. Not once, not twice, but three times. And each time, no matter how angry I was, it chipped away at the ice I had formed around my heart in the last two weeks. The anger in my chest now had faded slightly, still there but not as hot, and it made me understand some things a lot clearer. If Killian didn’t care about me at all, he wouldn’t go through all this trouble. He could just let me be, while continuing his job if it was really about the money. But apparently, apparentl
