REINA’S POV

An hour had passed since the chaos with the Lance situation. The air still felt thick, like the echoes of his venomous words were stitched into the walls of the hospital. But everything had gone eerily quiet…too quiet.

I was seated at the nurse’s station with the others, sipping from a lukewarm cup of weak tea. Gina was rambling about her deadbeat boyfriend again.

Apparently, he still hadn’t gotten off his ass to find a job and was now “exploring his music career.” Her words, not mine.

“If he asks me for another ‘loan’ to buy mic cables, I swear I’ll choke him with them,” she grumbled.

“He lives off your salary?” Nurse Sally gasped.

“Like a damn parasite,” Gina muttered, rolling her eyes.

“I swear,” said another nurse with a dreamy sigh, “if I had a man built like a Greek god…six foot five, jaw like sin, arms like death…and he told me to bark like a dog, I’d get on all fours and wag my tail proudly.”

The group burst into cackles.

I smirked faintly but kept my gaze lowered

  • The Devil's Nurse   Even If It Kills Me

    Reina’s POVThat last part cut through the air like a blade, the weight of it heavier than the threat before it. My brow furrowed, searching his face for the flicker of vulnerability I thought I’d heard.“What do you mean you ‘won’t survive it’?” I asked, my voice quiet but edged. “Is that because you care? Or because you can’t stand the thought of something you own being tainted or stolen by someone else? Will it hurt your pride?”His eyes sharpened instantly, the softness gone. The hand on my waist tightened, almost bruising. “Does it matter?” he asked, his tone flat.“Yes,” I shot back. “It matters to me. One of those things means I’m a person to you. The other means I’m just… property.”“You are mine,” he said simply, like that settled it.I huffed out a bitter laugh. “That’s not an answer, Cassian. That’s a claim.”Instead of saying something to clear my statement, his gaze flicked down my body, slow and deliberate, before snapping back to my face like a whip.“You left the bed t

  • The Devil's Nurse   Don’t Try Me, Reina

    REINA’S POV"You disobeyed me, Reina," he drawled, the lazy curl of his voice at odds with the razor hidden beneath it."Okay?" I shot back, sharper than I meant to, my arms folding across my chest like flimsy armor.His back straightened…not in shock, but with the deliberate uncoiling of a man who’d been lounging in the shadows too long. Something in the air shifted, dense and electric."Now…" He tapped the rim of his glass once, twice, like a judge deciding my sentence. "Why would you do that?""Because I’m not your fucking property."The faintest smirk tugged at his mouth, but there was no humor in it…only something darker, hungrier.He turned. Slowly. Predatory. Like a wolf in no rush to chase, certain the prey had nowhere left to run.He smiled, but it wasn’t the kind that reached his eyes. It was slow… deliberate… the kind of smile that promised nothing good.“You think that’s what this is about? Property?” His voice dipped, low and dangerous. “You think I’m angry because you wo

  • The Devil's Nurse   Bound Or Burn

    CASSIAN’S POVHe stifled his giggling, straightening his back.“Boss, she didn’t mean any harm. She genuinely thought that… but I’ve cleared the misunderstanding, and…”He was already making excuses for the maid, probably thinking I’d fly off the handle and order her head served on a silver platter. And honestly, that wasn’t a bad idea. But I had other plans.“Just get her back here, Lucas,” I snapped.Lucas flinched like I’d smacked him, then turned sharply toward the door, heels clicking as he vanished down the hall.Minutes passed.Silence folded in around me like a fog, dense and unsettling.I looked down at my hands. At the fabric I’d torn and folded…Reina’s nightgown and one of my shirts, pressed together, warm with the heat of my palm like some desperate token of obsession.What the hell am I doing?What would the maid think of me if I handed this to her? Some deranged lover? A clingy lunatic who needed a temple spell to keep a woman by his side?I didn’t need any divinity to k

  • The Devil's Nurse   Cupid Needs to Be Shot

    CASSIAN’S POVBoth of us drew our guns and moved with quiet precision. A single nod passed between us…Lucas already knew the drill. He dropped low and looked under the door.The shadow was still there. Still waiting. Still breathing.A beat passed. Then another.I clenched the door knob and gently shifted my weight, staying behind the door, signaling Lucas with a twitch of my fingers.One.Two.Now.I flung the door open with force and stayed behind it as Lucas aimed his gun at the figure directly in front of us. The sound that followed wasn’t a gunshot.It was a scream.High-pitched. Startled. Female.A pile of freshly washed and neatly ironed bedsheets tumbled to the floor, followed by the wide-eyed face of a maid with both hands lifted in surrender.Her mouth trembled. “I—I didn’t mean to—please!”Did she hear?The part where I could walk? About the plan? Was she sent by Jonah?What the hell does she know?I don’t like torturing women. Not my thing. Not really my forte. But I’ve ma

  • The Devil's Nurse   Beautiful When You Walk

    CASSIAN’S POV“One more thing,” I said, my voice calm…too calm…as a brilliant idea stitched itself together inside my mind like the makings of a masterpiece.Lucas turned back fully, eyes alert now, like a hound catching the scent of something deliciously wicked.“I need you to set something in motion immediately.”He said nothing. Just waited.“But first…” I steepled my fingers beneath my chin. “How is our fake Jonah doing?”Lucas’s jaw ticked slightly. “Still holding onto the same story. Marco insists he never saw the man’s face. Says he was threatened…the life of his daughter in exchange for playing the role. Claims the man knew everything…where she goes to school, her ballet recital time, the name of the teddy bear she sleeps with. Every damn detail.”Of course he did.I said nothing, only listened as Lucas continued.“He said he’s seen you fall apart once… after Bella. Said he wouldn’t wish that kind of grief on anyone. He cooperated and followed every instruction he was given b
