Zara's POV

By the time Damon pulls away from the Devereaux estate, I have decided that my family needs a therapist, a priest, and possibly an exorcist, although I'm not entirely convinced any of them would agree to take the case once they learned the full extent of the damage.

My father is hiding something, my mother would rather swallow glass than tell me the truth about our past, and Arabella seems to have made it her personal mission to convince me that my marriage is doomed, as though she h

  • The Biker King's Black Widow    39. HIS WIFE

    Zara's POVDamon didn't wait for my answer.His eyes moved over the cut on my forearm, the bruising beginning to form across my knuckles and the blood on the front of my shirt before returning to my face. His jaw was clenched so tightly that I could see the muscle working beneath his skin, and although I had seen him angry plenty of times, there was something different about the way he was looking at me now."Are you hurt anywhere else?" he demanded."I'm fine.""That wasn't what I asked."I glanced towards Valentina, who was packing away the supplies she had used to dress my arm. She looked between us and wisely decided that she had no intention of becoming involved."She's got a cut on her forearm and some bruising," she told him. "I've cleaned the wound. She needs to keep it covered, and I'll check it again later."Damon barely acknowledged her words. His attention remained fixed on me, and when he reached for my injured arm, I instinctively pulled it closer to my body."Careful. I

  • The Biker King's Black Widow    38. THE ATTACK

    Zara's POVDamon didn't kiss me goodbye when he left, although his hand lingered against my cheek for a moment before he stepped away. He had already made it clear that whatever was happening required his attention, and the look in his eyes told me he wasn't expecting a quick trip to the clubhouse or a routine meeting with the men.I followed him to the front door, watching as he checked his phone once more before slipping his keys into his pocket."You're seriously going to leave me with nothing more than a list of instructions?" I asked, leaning against the doorway.His mouth curved faintly. "Would you prefer a written report?""I'd prefer to know what's going on.""I'll tell you when I know more." He looked at me carefully. "Stay at home tonight, Zara. Don't go looking for trouble.""Trouble usually has a habit of finding me.""That's exactly what concerns me."I rolled my eyes, but he stepped closer and lowered his voice. "I'm not joking, Little Dove. If something feels wrong, you

  • The Biker King's Black Widow    37. THE MAN I MARRIED

    Zara's POVI wasn't sure what Damon expected me to say after my answer, and perhaps he wasn't sure either, because he didn't try to turn the conversation into something it wasn't. He simply held my hand for another moment before releasing it, then returned to his coffee as though we hadn't just crossed into territory neither of us had been particularly eager to explore.But something had changed between us.I couldn't put a name to it, and I wasn't about to start making assumptions about what my answer meant to him, yet I found myself watching him more closely as the morning went on. There was a side of Damon I had spent most of our marriage overlooking because it was easier to focus on the arrogant biker who seemed to believe the world should move according to his instructions. I knew how he could be when he was irritated, how quickly he could become intimidating when someone challenged him, and how stubbornly he held on to control, but those things didn't tell me everything about th

  • The Biker King's Black Widow    36. VICTOR WAS NEVER MINE

    Zara's POVDamon's question lingered between us, and for a moment I found myself wishing he had asked me something easier, because there were plenty of things I could have told him about Victor without having to examine what I had once felt for him. I could have listed the years we had known each other, the promises we had made, the future I had imagined, and all the reasons I had believed our relationship was heading towards marriage, but none of those things would answer the question Damon had actually asked.Have I ever loved anyone?I looked away from him, my attention settling on the coffee cup I had abandoned on the counter. "I thought I did."Damon didn't interrupt, and when I looked back at him, he was watching me with the same steady attention he had given me when I asked about his own past."Victor," I added, although we both knew who I meant. "For a long time, I thought he was the man I would spend the rest of my life with. We had been together for years, our families knew

  • The Biker King's Black Widow    35. DAMON'S PAST

    Zara's POVSerena's words stayed with me long after I had watched her walk away from my front door, and no matter how many times I told myself that she had only come here to get under my skin, I couldn't quite dismiss what she had said. There was something about the way she had spoken, the certainty in her voice when she mentioned Damon's dislike of being touched, that made it difficult to believe she had simply invented the story to make me uncomfortable.I knew Damon could be controlling, stubborn and occasionally impossible to deal with, but I had also seen a side of him that didn't fit the picture Serena had tried to paint. He had given me room when I needed it, had stopped himself from touching me when he could have easily pushed past my boundaries, and when he kissed me, there had been a carefulness in the way he held my face that I hadn't expected from a man who seemed so determined to control everything around him.Perhaps that was what bothered me most. I didn't know him as w

  • The Biker King's Black Widow    34. Sera's warning

    Zara's POV I barely slept after Damon left the house.Every time I closed my eyes, I found myself thinking about the way he had stood near the front door, dressed and ready to leave in the middle of the night, refusing to tell me where he was going. His explanation that it was nothing I needed to worry about had done absolutely nothing to reassure me, and I had eventually returned to my bedroom with more questions than I had started with.By morning, I was thoroughly irritated.I was irritated with Damon for leaving without explaining himself, irritated with myself for caring where he went, and particularly irritated by the fact that I was still thinking about the kiss. Apparently, declaring that it meant nothing hadn't convinced my brain to move on, because I could still remember exactly how his mouth had felt against mine.I was beginning to suspect that my own mind was working against me.After getting dressed, I went downstairs and found the house unusually quiet. Damon hadn't re
