Chapter 18 - Olivia POV
Olivia POV
“Stay with me please.” I whisper. I need the comfort that Connor gives me tonight. Even if it is just his presence. I can still feel his lips on mine and my core is still burning with need.
“Are you sure?” He asks. His forehead is against mine and his eyes are closed. He looks conflicted but serene. Instead of answering I gently place my lips against his. Only holding them there briefly before pulling back.
He nods and leaves the room explaining he is making sure the place is secure. I search for my charger and realise I haven’t got my work bag in my suitcase. “Fuck!” I shout as I search into the depths. I hear feet pounding the stairs and Roxie and Connor both enter in a state of panic. Roxie is searching for the threat and when she realises it is jus

Secret Glances Chapter 19 - Connor POV
Connor POVShe is so beautiful when she sleeps. So peaceful. I pull myself away not wanting to wake her up and look like a creep. After my shower, I brush my teeth and mentally prepare for the day. I have a feeling by lunch Liv will be climbing the walls. I am still going to try and keep her relaxed. Maybe I should take her out this afternoon. Yes.Once I have formulated a plan, I head back into the bedroom to find she is awake.“Good morning.” I smile as I walk to the walk in wardrobe. I hear a good morning back as I push the door slightly for privacy in case she wants to change. I will ensure her clothes are put away in here today.Okay so Liv is definitely going to be using my gym this mor
Secret Glances Chapter 20 - Olivia POV
Olivia POV How can this be happening. Just as I begin to get my life back on track and it is really looking up, that name comes back to haunt me. Will I ever be free of him? I realise the knowledge of him being in prison has made me complacent. Will I ever be safe? The answer to my question has his arms wrapped around me. Connor. He is my safe place. We have only just begun our exploration for each other but I already feel safe with him. I trust him. “Detective Dan. Can you possibly photocopy the next few weeks appointments from my diary and email them to me? I don’t want it back. Just take it with you. I do need to ask about your professional opinion in regards to my safety. What should I do?” I ask tentatively. “I think you are safe here. Especially with Neil s
Secret Glances Chapter 21 - Connor POV
Connor POVFuck me, Liv is incredible. After our night of pure unadulterated passion we have been even closer. I can really see a future with this woman. We eat together, sleep together, laugh together and as each day goes I am more and more in love with her. We haven’t left the house. My father is in total agreement that we stay put until this current danger is neutralised. Neil has been walking Roxie for me and I’ve got to tell you, as good as things are at home for both Liv and I, we are climbing the walls a bit.It is currently Thursday. The day the threat in the diary stated Olivia would die. Once again we are staying in.I’m laying in bed watching my beautiful angel sleep and I can’t bear the thought of something happening to her.

Secret Glances Chapter 23 - Connor POV
Connor POVThey always say you should listen to your gut. Well that came true today. All those bad feelings throughout today were telling me and I just didn’t listen. Now Beth is gone. I only met her the once but she was very kind to me and she means the world to Olivia. Meant the world. Past tense.Olivia is currently catatonic upstairs and Ally and I are at odds about how to help her. I want to give her space to come to terms with everything and Ally wants to be there constantly. The problem is until Olivia tells us what she wants neither of us can agree on the best way forward. I decide to call my parents for advice and help.“Hello?” Dad answers after the third ring.“Dad, it’
Secret Glances Chapter 24 - Olivia POV
Olivia POVIt has been weeks and the police are still no closer to finding out who murdered my mum because that’s what it was. Murder. It has been confirmed. She was asphyxiated. My darling mum was smothered. She must have been so scared. I have been really struggling with the guilt of not being there for her in her final moments. Connor’s mum, Claire has been my rock. That petite blonde bombshell is a godsend. She is motherly, but in a way where she isn’t trying to replace my mum. More like an older best friend. Ally has been here when they haven’t been working and I truly appreciate it. Connor, Ally, Claire and Andrew (it’s still weird calling my big boss by his first name but he insists) have convinced me to go to therapy and in all honesty, I am glad I went to my first session this week. My therapist, Louise, is letting me take the reigns. She i
Secret Glances Chapter 25 - Connor POV
Connor POV I really wanted to spend the day with my girl, especially after this morning. She really is the strongest person I know. The way she has handled everything has been insane. I know I wouldn’t have been able to do what she has. Yes, she struggled the day we got the news but who can really blame her for that. She is in therapy now and I really think it is helping her. Baby steps. This morning was the most intense sex I have ever had. She truly is a goddess and I plan on spending the rest of my life with her, I just haven’t found the right moment to tell her, I will ask her to move in first. Alexander seems to have dropped his complaint against her once all the statements and evidence was presented from the HR investigation. Daisy, however i
Secret Glances Chapter 26 - Connor POV
Connor POV I am sat by Olivia’s hospital bed. Ally is in the bed next to her. I managed to convince the staff here to place them in the same room to stop the inevitable argument later when they wake up and want to check on each other. Ally was beaten quite badly but after some scans they have determined that they have no internal damage. Olivia has dark bruises around her neck, a broken nose and two black eyes. Seeing her like this breaks me. I wasn’t there. I didn’t protect her. Neil is in surgery, he stepped in where I couldn’t and I will forever be grateful to that man. My parents enter the room and I break down. They rush to my side as sobs wrack my chest. I heave trying to catch my breath as I say.
