Reina’s POV

Three days.

Three long, heavy days since that night. Since the gun. Since the blood. Since the taste of bile lodged in my throat that refused to leave.

And in those three days, I hadn’t spoken more than five words to Cassian. Only when it was unavoidable…directions, yes or no, a forced “fine.” I followed when he ordered me to, but I made sure he didn’t get the luxury of my smile. Or my ease. Or any illusion that I was still the naïve little nurse who didn’t see the monster beneath his broken body.

He had tried explaining himself, of course. Told me he knew I wasn’t going to shoot the man, that it was all just to scare the man. Just for…fun.

Fun. As if fun meant handing me a loaded weapon and making me stand ankle-deep in someone else’s blood.

Well, not ankle deep, but still!

And when I refused to buy that excuse, he accused me instead…said I betrayed him. Said it looked like I took the other man’s side. Said he was jealous. Jealous. As if that word could excuse it.

  • The Devil's Nurse   The Kitchen Boss

    Reina’s POV“I’m in big trouble.”His chair shifted, the wheels squeaking faintly against the tiled floor. My breath caught when his eyes…stormy gray and unrelenting…lifted to find mine. For a moment, I thought I’d gotten away with whispering to myself. But Cassian’s lips curved slowly, dangerously, like he’d heard every syllable.“Come here, Reina.” His voice rolled through the kitchen, deep and commanding, soft enough to sound like a caress.I stayed rooted in the doorway, clutching the frame like it could shield me. My silence had been my shield for days, my punishment. And yet, my body betrayed me. My feet moved. One step. Another. Until I was standing in front of him, foolish prey waiting for the predator’s snare.Before I could say a word, his strong arms wrapped around my waist. And in one swift motion, the man in the wheelchair lifted me as if gravity bowed for him, setting me on the polished marble counter like I weighed nothing at all.“Watch,” he said, his lips brushing clo

  • The Devil's Nurse   Come and Eat

    Cassian’s POVThe metallic perfume of blood hadn’t yet settled when the door creaked open again.Lucas returned, and this time, he wasn’t alone.Reina stormed into the room, her chest heaving, her cheeks flushed, fury lighting her eyes brighter than any chandelier. Her steps were sharp, her heels clapping against the polished wood like war drums. She looked like she might tear the walls down with her bare hands if she could.I almost laughed.She was fire and defiance wrapped up in a sexy body, glaring at me as if I hadn’t just painted the walls with blood.“Why?” Her voice shook, not with fear, but with rage. “Why the hell would you put that gun in my hand? Why make me part of… this?” She flung her hand toward the floor, toward the slick blood trailing across lacquered tiles, toward the empty chair where De Cruz had screamed himself hoarse.I tilted my head, utterly calm, utterly entertained.“Why did you run?” My tone was quiet, playful almost, the corner of my mouth twitching wit

  • The Devil's Nurse   How to Handle Betrayers

    Cassian’s POVDe Cruz’s screams clawed at the air, but I let them linger. Let the blood spread, thick and slick across the floor. His leg twitched as he pressed both hands uselessly against the wound, his whimpers rattling through the silence.I leaned back in my chair, calm, collected, breathing in the iron tang of blood like it was incense. The stench of fear was always sweeter.“Lucas,” I said quietly, my tone calm but edged with authority that brooked no refusal. “Strip him of anything sharp or stupid enough to give him courage. We wouldn’t want our guest to get reckless and… end it early, would we?” A faint pause, deliberate, before I added, “Seal the room. No one comes in. No one goes out.”“Yes, boss.” Lucas bent, scooping up the pistol, then slid it across the table out of reach.I rolled my chair forward, slow, deliberate, letting the faint squeal of rubber on tile grind into De Cruz’s ears. His eyes darted to me, wide, feral, like a rat with its back broken.“You were always

  • The Devil's Nurse   The Devil’s Lesson

    Cassian’s POVDe Cruz’s breath stuttered, a sick little laugh bubbling out of his throat like he was trying to convince himself it meant nothing.“Empty threats,” he croaked, though his voice shook. His eyes flicked to the screen but darted back just as quick. “You won’t do it, Morelli. Not them. You’ll kill me, sure. Burn me, gut me, feed me to your dogs. But kids?” His smile cracked, but he forced it wider. “That’s beneath even you.”I rolled my chair forward slowly, the wheels cutting across the silence like a blade. Each inch closer dragged his arrogance thinner, stretched until it frayed.“You think so?” My voice was quiet, but it slithered into his bones. “You think you know the limits of what I’ll do, rat? Let me enlighten you.”I leaned in, my words venom.“I will have your wife watch as we strip the skin off your bones while she screams into her gag. Then I’ll cut the ropes on your children and tell them to run…but only after my men pour gasoline behind them. Do you know what

  • The Devil's Nurse   The Good Nurse

    Cassian’s POV“Drag her out of here, or lock her somewhere,” I snapped, my voice razor-sharp. “You might as well knock her unconscious. I don’t care which. Just get her out of my sight”Lucas shifted, ready to obey, but Reina twisted in his grip like a storm barely contained.“No...wait!” she cried, shoving back, hair falling loose around her flushed face. Her voice wavered, but her resolve didn’t. “Cassian, I’m a nurse. This is what I do. You can’t ask me to just sit still while someone bleeds out in front of me. I can’t help it!”Her hands trembled, knotted napkins pressed against the bastard’s stump, blood seeping fast between her fingers. She looked up at me, those wide eyes blazing, pleading but stubborn. “Let me fix the cut before he bleeds out. Please.”“And what makes you think I don’t want him to bleed out?” I bit out, my voice like a blade drawn slow, cold fury simmering beneath every word. My hands twitched with the violent urge to smash something...anything...just to silen
