Dominic’s Pov

I stood beside the open car door, watching the dark trees sway in the cold night wind.

Sienna’s eyes were wide with pure curiosity. I knew what she was thinking. She thought Nathan and I had buried some dramatic corporate secret or a dark, ugly scandal three years ago.

"Dom," Sienna asked softly, taking my hand in hers. "What happened between you and Nathan Laurent?"

"It wasn't a corporate scandal, trouble," I admitted, turning to look straight into her warm dark eyes. "It was abo

    Sienna’s PovThe big phone call changed everything in less than ten seconds.The regional education board director wanted a formal meeting with Elena, Dominic, and me to talk about expanding our mentoring program to five more schools. My heart did a wild, happy dance. This was a massive chance to help hundreds of kids who dreamed of building a creative future.But as the excitement settled down, my practical event-planner brain kicked into high gear.I knew we couldn't just rush into a massive expansion without a clear plan. We needed to figure out staffing, funding, and tight scheduling. I refused to let our program grow so fast that my mother burned out, or worse, forced Brooks Events to pay for everything out of our own pocket.Two days later, we sat in a bright glass conference room across from the regional education board representatives."We love what you did at the workshop," the lead representative said, smiling across the wooden table. "We want to roll this out across five re

    Sienna’s PovThe morning light poured through the clean front windows of our new community workshop space, filling the room with bright, hopeful energy.I arrived early to double-check every single desk, organizing notepads, pens, and project outlines for our very first group of student planners. My stomach fluttered with a mix of wild excitement and nervous butterflies. This program wasn't just a community project; it was a huge personal milestone for my mother and me.The heavy front door swung open, and Dominic walked in wearing a sharp dark suit, holding a large cardboard box filled with warm bagels and hot coffee cups from the corner bakery."Good morning, Professor Brooks," Dominic teased softly, setting the breakfast box down on the front desk and leaning over to press a warm kiss to my cheek."Good morning, Mr. Kane," I smiled, wrapping my arms around his neck for a quick second. "Thank you for the food. Are you sure you shouldn't be heading to Kane Tower for your morning boar

    Dominic’s PovThe dusty brick walls of the empty warehouse didn't look like much when we first walked inside, but I knew we had no time to waste.The local vocational school had just promised to send their entire senior event-planning class much sooner than expected. That meant we had to turn this empty space into a fully functional workshop area right away.Instead of stepping in with my usual CEO attitude and barking out orders, I took a deep breath and reminded myself of the promise I made to Sienna. I was here as an equal partner, not as a dictator who made every single choice alone.While Sienna and Elena sat at a foldout table mapping out the educational curriculum, vendor lessons, and daily schedules, I walked the perimeter with our lead contractor, Marcus Senior—a gruff, experienced builder named Miller who didn't care at all about my corporate title."We need to clear this center wall, run new electrical lines for laptop stations, and put down durable flooring," Miller explai

    Sienna’s PovThe warm afternoon sunlight spilled across the outdoor patio of the downtown café where we were meeting my mother.Elena sat across the wooden table with a thick folder filled with handwritten notes, colorful diagrams, and printed lists. Her dark eyes were bright with a fierce, renewed energy I hadn't seen in years."I've been busy all week," Elena announced, tapping the edge of her folder with a proud smile. "I contacted several of my old planning colleagues from my corporate days. They are all willing to volunteer their time to teach young event planners the real, practical skills that schools never cover in textbooks."Dominic and I leaned in closely, listening with total attention."I want this program to start small and modest," Elena explained, flipping open her folder. "We will offer focused workshops on event budgeting, vendor negotiations, client communication, and creative planning. Once this small model proves successful, we can expand it."A rush of pure excit

    Sienna's Pov The heavy tip of my black pen hovered just above the bottom of the white notepad.The question had been floating in the back of my mind ever since our quiet getaway in the countryside, but I kept pushing it away. I didn't want to bring it up too fast. I didn't want Dominic to feel like our marriage had to follow some strict, rushing checklist.I took a slow breath, looked right into my husband’s dark eyes, and finally said the words out loud."Dom... do we want to start thinking about having children in the future?"Dominic froze. The relaxed smile on his face vanished completely. He set his pen down on the glass coffee table and stared down at the paper.For a long moment, the penthouse living room went dead silent. The only sound was the soft hum of the city traffic far below our window."Sienna," Dominic started, his deep voice sounding a little rough around the edges. He rubbed the back of his neck, looking away for a second before meeting my gaze again. "I want a fa

    Dominic's Pov The morning sun rose over the city, but my mind was already racing a mile a minute.I sat at the oak desk in my grandmother’s estate study, holding a digital tablet and typing out a massive recovery plan. I had divided her day into precise hourly blocks. I had scheduled three different specialist check-ups, assigned nursing shifts, and contacted a team of private nutritionists before anyone had even asked me to do so.I was running my grandmother’s health like a multi-million-dollar corporate restructuring.Sienna walked quietly into the room, holding a cup of warm tea. She leaned over my shoulder, reading through the strict, color-coded spreadsheet on my screen."Dom," Sienna said softly, her voice gentle but firm. "You have color-coded her afternoon nap time. Don't you think this is just a little bit intense?""I am just protecting her," I argued immediately, tapping my pen against the desk. "She needs structure, rest, and strict supervision. If I leave any gaps in th
