Julianna's POVEven with the lights still on, I can't sleep. My body is sensitive to new places, and my mind won't stop replaying today's events. Should I start with the stress of being called in the middle of my sleep or the tension I walked into at Ethan's family home?From the looks of things, this family is….complicated, especially his mother, she wasn't just cold–she was hostile. The way she looked at him–like he wasn't her son but a stranger she despised.

Ethan's POV I watched her for a while as she entered her apartment. I subconsciously touched my cheeks where she had hit me. The sting on my cheek from the slap lingered. But it wasn't the pain that bothered me, it was the audacity. I clenched my Jaw as if trying to suppress my irritation. With a sigh, I turned on the engine and drove home.The penthouse was silent as I stepped inside. I took off my Jacket and loosened my tie, hanging them neatly in the closet.
