ROXANNE POV

The midday heat was relentless by the time we reached the market, but Thomas didn't complain. He parked close to the plaza side entrance and got out without a word.

The vendors in the market recognized Thomas instantly. No surprise there. Damien's name seems to have that effect.

I grabbed a cart and went about my business while Thomas followed a short distance behind, occasionally pointing out a better brand or suggesting something else if an item was missing.

I couldn't tell if T

    ROXANNE POVLow music played softly in the background of the villa, blending with the gentle sound of water as I moved through the pool.I let myself sink just a little deeper into the pool, the coolness of it gliding over my naked skin as I moved slowly. For once, I wasn’t thinking about anything.Not the past.Not the investigation.Not even tomorrow.Just…this moment.I dipped beneath the surface, letting the quiet surround me before rising again, pushing my hair back as droplets slid down my skin.And when I looked up...There he was.Damien sat on one of the pool chairs, one leg crossed over the other, a glass of rich red wine in his hand. He looked completely at ease...relaxed in a way most people never got to see.But his eyes? They were locked on me.Completely.Like there was nothing else in the world worth his attention.A small smile tugged at my lips as I turned back, letting my fingers glide through the water.“You’re staring,” I called out lightly.“I know,” he replied

    ROXANNE POV I watched keenly as I finished my drink, the glass cold between my fingers, condensation slipping down to dampen my palm. The fruity flavor lingered on my tongue, but I barely noticed it anymore. My gaze was focused on Damien as I stood up and walked around the couch while I looked at the man he’d just summoned. The poor guy stood stiff like a kid dragged to the principal’s office, shoulders tight, eyes flicking between Damien and me like he already knew he’d somehow walked into a trap. He probably had. Damien thrived on it, like a lion grinning before the pounce. Damien came and leaned back in the seat, legs spread, one arm resting lazily on the couch headrest. "You like what you see?" He asked the man casually, his tone light and almost playful. The guy blinked, eyes darting down on me, then quickly up again. "N-No. I mean...no, sir. I wasn’t..." Damien raised an eyebrow. "No?" A dark grin tugged at his mouth. "So you’re saying my girl looks unpleasant?"

    ROXANNE POV I was casually strolling through the supermarket, one hand on the cart as I moved down the aisles, gathering groceries like a normal person for once. Something about it felt…grounding. After everything that had been happening...the memories, the therapy, the constant feeling that my past was creeping closer...I needed something normal. So I insisted on doing this myself after work instead of letting Mrs. Jones handle it like she usually did. Of course, “by myself” I didn’t exactly mean alone. Adam had picked me up from the clinic, and now he was somewhere nearby... close enough to step in if needed, yet far enough to give me space. I spotted him briefly at the end of the aisle, pretending to look at cereal like he had any interest in it. I hid a small smile and turned back to my cart. Milk. Bread. Fresh fruits. A few snacks Angelina liked. And yes...strawberry wafer cookies. I tossed them in without hesitation. My phone was tucked between my shoulder

    ROXANNE POVI linked pinkies with Angelina and we sealed it with a giggle.We opened the food and started to eat, occasionally passing the corn or fries between us, giggling about how spicy the sauce was or how the syrupy fruit punch stained our tongues red.I was about to wipe her cheek with a tissue when something in the distance pulled my attention. I looked past the crowd and food stalls, across the miniature game booths and rows of folding chairs. There he was.Damien.Dressed in a fitted black polo shirt with the sleeves hugging his arms and a simple pair of ash-grey trousers that did unspeakable things to his stride, he walked through the crowd with an ease that commanded attention. His watch glinted in the sun, and even his damn shoes looked like they could outdress a runway. That was Damien Raphaël. Always sharp even when surrounded by sticky children.I didn’t say anything to Angelina. I just watched quietly, lips curled in a small smile, waiting for the moment.It didn’t t

    ROXANNE POVIt was the day of the spring festival at Angelina’s school. And I had to admit, I was a little more excited than I expected to be. The sun was warm but not too harsh, the wind soft and carrying the scent of cotton candy and grilled hot dogs from the booths scattered across the school’s front lawn.I wore a flowy off-shoulder sundress that fell just below my knees, with a pair of nude wedges and sunglasses covering my eyes. My purse swung gently against my hip with each step, and my hair was combed into soft wavy curls that framed my shoulders. I looked…well, like someone who was actually trying.Angelina, on the other hand, looked like a magical little dream in her flower fairy outfit which was completed with sparkly wings, a flower crown, and glitter on her cheeks. She held my hand tightly as we walked past the booths, stopping every so often to admire the face painting station or the table where kids were trying to throw rings around stuffed flamingos.Fred, who drove

    DAMIEN RAPHAËL POV I deepened the kiss, my hands sliding down to grip her ass possessively. She was my wife now, and I wasn't going to deny her anything. I lifted her up, pressing her back against the cool tiles of the shower as the warm water cascaded over us. My erection nestled perfectly between her legs."Is this what you want, kitten?" I whispered against her lips, my voice low and husky. "You want your husband to fuck you?" I ground my hips against her, emphasizing my point. Her breath hitched against my mouth."Yes," she whispered.That was all I needed.Without breaking the kiss, I lifted her legs around my waist and pushed into her in one smooth motion. She gasped into my mouth, her nails digging into my shoulders. "Fuck," I groaned against her neck, not moving. "You feel like home." My hips started. Slow at first, savoring every inch of her wrapped around me.Every thrust was a claim. Every moan she made was mine. And as the hot water pounded over us, I made damn su

    ROXANNE POVWe strolled through the town, me a step behind Damien's mother and Angelina as they admired window displays. Adam and Cedric trailed us at a distance, hands full of the growing pile of shopping bags.Angel darted between racks of frilly dresses at a children’s boutique while Mrs. Clara

    ROXANNE POV The car ride back to the Raphaël estate had been quieter than expected. Angel had nodded off halfway through, her little head resting on Mrs. Clara's shoulder. Cedric drove with that signature silence of his, only speaking when necessary, and Adam rode shotgun, arms crossed and gaze f

    DAMIEN RAPHAËL POV I noticed Roxanne shifting in her sleep before she pressed her back against my side. When I glanced at the small clock on the nightstand, I realized it was nearly midnight. I've been watching TV quietly with my arms relaxing beneath my head, not wanting to disturb her slumber.

    ROXANNE POV After we left the rooftop restaurant, Damien drove in silence, his fingers occasionally drumming against the steering wheel as soft music played low in the background. The city lights glimmered past my window like scattered diamonds, but I wasn’t paying much attention to the view. My
