"Nate is a friend who owns a security company, he did the digging for me," Grayson continued. "I had to pass it along. Men who escalate from control to violence often have an endgame. The policy, combined with the assault... I'm just telling you what Nate told me." Before adding, "I know Joy is a family friend and I know you arranged the protection for her. I was thinking you might need to increase that protection and let her family know."

"You think he planned to kill her," Gage said flatly.

Honey sat there in total shock.

"I think the possibility can't be ignored."

"Have you told Joy this?" Her father gave her a sharp look. Honey shook her head; this was the first she had heard of it. She would never keep this information from her father.

She was shocked and it didn't make sense… Had he planned to kill her and make it look like an accident before she had found out about the affair and started divorce proceedings he would have gotten billions of dollars. Why would he then take out an

    Blue and red lights were flashing through Nonna's windows. Two NYPD officers pushed through the entrance, hands on their belts as they assessed the latest scene.Amanda hauled Paul upright by his collar, blood still streaming from his nose. "This man assaulted my client. Came charging at her and threw a beer at her face."The older officer, badge reading "Bart," moved forward. "Let him go, ma'am. We'll take it from here."Amanda released Paul with a shove that sent him stumbling into the younger officer's grip. "This one is with the other one outside. Riley Smith. Already in custody for violating a restraining order."Officer Bart's eyes found Honey at the table, taking in her beer-soaked appearance. "You're the complainant?"Honey looked down at herself. It was a little hard to miss; she was the only one wearing beer."I am." Honey stood on unsteady legs. "Riley Smith has an active restraining order. He approached me here despite it. Then his friend—" She gestured toward Paul, who wa

    Jason was already moving, intercepting Riley before he'd made it halfway to their table."Sir, you need to leave." Jason's voice carried authority despite its measured tone."I'm here to have a drink with my friends from work," Riley snarled, trying to push past. "I have every right to be here.""The restraining order says otherwise." Jason positioned himself firmly between Riley and Honey's table. "You're in violation. Leave now, or I call the police."Riley's face flushed crimson. "What are you going to do about it, tough guy! Make her leave, it's a free country."Amanda appeared from somewhere near the kitchen, phone already pressed to her ear. Honey thought she had left for the night. "NYPD? I need officers at Nonna's Restaurant. Restraining order violation in progress."The maître d' hurried over, hands raised placatingly. "Sir, please. You're disturbing our guests—""I don't give a fuck about your guests!" Riley's voice rose, drawing attention from nearby tables. "That's my wife

    Thursday, October 19th, 7:15 AMHoney woke wrapped in Grayson's arms, sunlight streaming through gaps in his bedroom curtains. His chest rose and fell against her back, his breath warm on her neck. For a moment, she allowed herself to simply exist in that peace before reality intruded.Work. They both needed to be at work.She shifted slightly, and Grayson's arms tightened around her waist."Don't even think about it," he murmured against her shoulder."We have a big meeting about Nortons today—""In four hours." His lips traced her spine. "Plenty of time."Honey's phone buzzed from somewhere on the floor. Then Grayson's joined it. The real world wasn't waiting."We need to get up," she said, though she made no move to leave the warmth of his embrace."Unfortunately." He pressed one last kiss to her shoulder before releasing her. "But tonight, you're coming back here."It wasn't a question."You really are bossy," she muttered, reaching for her clothes. And she needed to put him in hi

    Grayson watched as Honey pulled back slightly, her eyes scanning his face as if searching for the sincerity beneath his words. The awkwardness of that moment felt like they were standing on the edge of something monumental."Move in with you?" Her voice carried uncertainty and curiosity."Yes." His hands were warm on her skin, grounding her. "Why not?"Her laugh was a string of notes, tentative and skeptical. "Grayson, that's a huge step. We've barely peeled back the layers of this... whatever this is.""I know." He traced a line down her arm. "But it feels right, doesn't it? Like we're meant to collide."Honey's gaze searched Grayson's face, looking for any sign of doubt or hesitation. Finding none, she felt a curious lightness spread through her chest despite the weight of his proposition."Meant to collide," she repeated softly. "That's one way of putting it. More like a crash course in complications."Grayson's lips quirked. "I've never been afraid of complicated.""Clearly." She

    Grayson's hands slid higher on Honey's thighs, his thumbs tracing patterns that made her breath hitch, and she could see the heat building in his eyes."I need you to understand something," he said, his voice dropping to that commanding tone that made her core clench. "When I say you're mine, I mean it. Not as property. You need to understand you are my equal. My partner.""Partner implies we're on the same level." Honey's voice came out breathier than she intended. "But you like control.""In the bedroom, yes." His hands gripped her thighs more firmly, the heat of his palms burning as he pulled her forward, bringing her to the very edge of the stool until their bodies aligned perfectly. She could feel the hard length of him pressing against her core through their clothes, the friction making her gasp. He shifted his hips deliberately, letting her feel exactly what she did to him, how much he wanted her. The slow grind of his hard cock against her sent sparks of pleasure racing throug

    Honey rose from the couch, following Grayson into his kitchen. The space was modern with all stainless steel and dark granite, but warm light made it feel inviting. He was already unpacking containers, the rich aromas filling the air, making her realize just how hungry she was."Plates are in that cabinet," he said, nodding toward the upper cupboard beside the sink.She reached up, stretching to grasp the dinner plates. As she did, her blouse rode up slightly, and she felt Grayson's gaze on the exposed strip of skin at her waist. She wasn’t sure how she knew he was watching. But his gaze was like a physical touch."You're staring," she said without turning around."Can't help it." His voice held that familiar heat. "Seeing you in my kitchen, in my home... it feels right."Honey set the plates on the counter, turning to face him. "Does it? Because yesterday I was just your CFO. Last week I was a complete stranger to you. Outside of Joy Smith your employee.""No." Grayson shook his head
