The waiter returned, breaking the moment as he carefully set the steaming plates on the table.

The golden, sugar-dusted pastries and delicate cups of café au lait smelled incredible, pulling Emmeline's attention.

"This looks absolutely heavenly," she murmured, picking up a warm beignet and took a slow, deliberate bite.

The sweet, powdered sugar melted on her tongue, and she closed her eyes, letting out a soft sigh of appreciation.

    The waiter returned, breaking the moment as he carefully set the steaming plates on the table.The golden, sugar-dusted pastries and delicate cups of café au lait smelled incredible, pulling Emmeline's attention."This looks absolutely heavenly," she murmured, picking up a warm beignet and took a slow, deliberate bite.The sweet, powdered sugar melted on her tongue, and she closed her eyes, letting out a soft sigh of appreciation.When she opened her eyes again, she found Zavian tracking her every move.His gaze was fixed on her lips with an open, hungry look that had nothing to do with the breakfast spread."You make eating look sinful," he murmured in a low, rough voice that sent a visible shiver down her spine."We're in public, Zavian. Behave yourself." Emmeline tried to scold him, though the breathless, husky quality of her voice completely undercut the command."I'm always well-behaved," Zavian replied with fake innocence, the darkening blue of his eyes telling a very different

    The morning sun broke through the gray Paris mist, spilling pale gold light across the floors.Emmeline woke feeling completely refreshed, the fog of jet lag lifting as eager, nervous excitement took its place.She slid out of bed while Zavian was still in the bathroom, looked over his side of the closet, and laid out dark trousers, black knit sweater, and his dark overcoat."These will match your coat perfectly, Zavian. You'll look amazing." Emmeline spoke when she felt his presence behind her.Strong, warm arms wrapped around her waist from behind and his chest pressing to her back as his chin came to rest on her shoulder. "Have you made yourself my personal stylist now?"Emmeline leaned back into him, closing her eyes, letting the scent of sandalwood and clean skin wrapped around her. "I like dressing you. It makes me feel like I actually belong in your life. Like we're a real team."Zavian turned her slowly in his arms, his sapphire eyes tracing every detail of her face. "I run th

    Emmeline curled her fingers into the soft silk of his pajama top and pressed her lips to his in a desperate, breathless kiss.When she pulled back, her chest rose and fell with reluctance, her eyes locked on his. "More than all the water in the oceans. More than the stars in the sky, and more than every breath I'll ever take."The words hung in the dim room, free of pride or pretending.Zavian's brows lifted in genuine surprise. "Don't you think you're getting a little carried away, little girl? That's a big promise to make to a monster."She opened her mouth to argue, but he didn't give her the chance. He sat up, capturing her lips in a deep, hungry kiss that swallowed whatever she meant to say.The kiss shifted fast from tender to wild as his tongue slipped past her lips, tangling with hers in a rhythm that stole the air from her lungs.A rough moan broke from her throat.Emmeline gripped his shoulders while his hands slid down her back, found the curve of her hips, and slipped unde

    The warm water eased the tension from Emmeline’s muscles and cleared the remaining fog from her mind.By the time she stepped out, she felt almost like herself again.She toweled her hair dry, slipped into the nightgown, and ran a comb through her damp locks.The silk felt like cool water on her sensitized skin.When she returned to the bedroom, the suite was quiet except for the rhythmic tapping of keys.Zavian reclined against the towering headboard, dressed in the black silk bottoms she'd laid out, a silver laptop balanced on his lap.Emmeline padded across the thick rug and climbed onto the mattress, crawling toward him like a curious cat. "What could possibly require your attention at this hour? Don't tell me Paris courts are holding midnight sessions."Zavian's blue eyes lifted from the display, raking slowly over the short hem of her blush nightgown before returning to her face.A dark heat flickered in the sapphire irises, though he kept his tone dry. "The judiciary never slee

    "The suite you booked for us is absolutely stunning, and the view is breathtaking. If we'd come in summer, I'd spend every single moment on this balcony."Emmeline turned back, pure happiness illuminating her features, the earlier quarrel momentarily forgotten.The sweep of the city laid out before her filled her with a thrilling sense of adventure.Zavian stood near the entrance of the salon, his deep blue gaze fixed on her with a brooding intensity that kept its distance. "The room your brother booked was on the opposite side of the building, overlooking an alleyway. I made sure to reserve a completely different wing."The remark carried a lingering bite, a reminder that his anger over the restaurant hadn't fully dissolved.Zavian turned on his heel, retrieved their bags from the threshold, and dragged them toward the spacious closet."You can use the bathroom before me. I have work to finish." His tone was clipped, almost impersonal.The sudden emotional distance sent a hollow pang

    The drive from the restaurant to the hotel passed in thick, unbearable silence.Paris blurred past the tinted windows in streaks of wet neon lights and amber streetlamps.Neither of them uttered a single word.Zavian kept his hands resting loosely on the leather steering wheel, his profile resembling a statue carved from frozen marble.The car finally pulled to a smooth stop before an imposing, grand hotel located off the Place Vendôme.The limestone facade glowed with old-world, aristocratic wealth. Doormen dressed in gold-braided uniforms rushed forward instantly, unloading their luggage.Emmeline stepped into the opulent marble lobby. The sharp click of her heels echoed loudly toward the polished reception desk.She reached into her handbag for her confirmation slip, determined to maintain her hard-won independence."Good evening. I have a reservation under the name of Emmeline Lawson."Zavian moved up behind her, his hand resting heavily on the marble counter as he leaned forward,

    Emmeline's name had never sounded like that before. On the lips of parishioners or the convent superiors, it was always formal and entirely professional. But on his lips, it sounded like a dark, desperate prayer.She shivered as her treacherous body betrayed her once again.His voice carried the eas

    The world came back to Emmeline in fragments.First, there was warmth seeping into her bones, melting into places inside her that'd always felt faintly numb. It felt like coming home after wandering alone for a lifetime. Then came the scent. It was dark, masculine, and wholly unfamiliar. It was the

    Zavian was beyond livid. A nun. His Emmeline, the woman who'd burned in his arms with a passion that set his very soul on fire, had become a nun. The woman who'd once surrendered everything for love had instead surrendered everything to God.He could barely contain the manic laughter bubbling up fr

    "Beloved brothers and sisters." A female voice carried through the sacred space, warm and melodious yet firm with purpose.A young woman whose very presence seemed to sanctify the space around her stood proudly at the altar.
