He placed his hand on my lower back and guided me past two locked doors, a private bar, and a security man who stepped aside before Adam even spoke. I kept walking beside him in his oversized shirt, bare legs tired, eyes heavy, body still too awake because apparently sleep and common sense had both abandoned me tonight.

“Where are we going?” I asked, glancing at the black door at the end of the hall.

“You’ll see.”

Adam unlocked the door with a keycard and pushed it open.

The room inside was dar

  • The Double Life of My Hot Secretary   230: Thirty million dollars

    “Adam?”The moment I heard him breathe, relief tore through me. A sob escaped.“Eve? What happened?”“Where have you been? I called you all night. I called your office, your driver, Dante and two hospitals. I thought you were dead. I thought you left me.”“Left you? What the hell are you talking about?”“You disappeared after finding out I was pregnant. What was I supposed to think?”“That I would cut out my own heart before I walked away from you.” He exhaled. “My phone was surrendered when I entered the research facility. Their security disabled the car tracker because the facility is confidential. I expected to be there for two hours, not all night. I should have told you where I was going. I’m sorry. Where are you?”I wiped my face with my sleeve. “Almost at my parents’ house.”“Perfect. I’ll meet you there. I have something important to show you.”“Adam, what did you do?”“Something I should have done sooner.”Dad opened the door.“What happened?”“I didn’t sleep.” I stepped past

  • The Double Life of My Hot Secretary   229: Missing person report

    I stared at the dark screen until Adam’s name disappeared.Three calls. Straight to voicemail every time.I pressed call again and lifted the phone to my ear, pacing between the kitchen and the front windows. The same recorded voice answered before the second ring.Where are you?Please call me.Adam, you’re scaring me.All three messages were delivered. None were read.I pulled one curtain aside and searched the empty street. Every pair of headlights made my heart jump, but each car continued past the house without slowing. By four, I imagined his car wrapped around a tree.I called again.Voicemail.The water he had poured for me still sat on the table beside the open packet of crackers. I forced one into my mouth because Doctor Bennett had told me not to let my stomach stay empty. It turned dry against my tongue. I spat it into a tissue and pressed both hands over my face.“You’re being ridiculous,” I whispered. “He said he’d be back.”I tried the intercom beside the front door. A

    I stared at Doctor Bennett until she lowered the tablet.“Pregnant?”“Your blood contains human chorionic gonadotropin,” she said. “The level suggests this is very early. We will repeat the test in forty eight hours and arrange an ultrasound when there is something reliable to see.”Beside me, Adam had gone completely still.I looked down at my stomach. It appeared exactly as it had that morning beneath his shirt. I had kissed him, eaten toast and worried about dying without knowing another life had already begun inside me.“That can’t be right.”Doctor Bennett’s expression remained gentle. “Had your period been late?”I tried to remember the last normal one. Italy, London and the weeks without Adam had blurred every date together. “I thought stress changed it.”Adam finally moved. His hand closed around mine, firm enough to bring me back into the room.“Is she safe?” he asked. “The scan you performed, could it have harmed the pregnancy?”“We used non-ionising imaging. It is safe.” Do

    I woke to Adam’s lips against my forehead.I stayed still, unsure whether he was awake. His arm remained around my waist, and my fist was still tangled in his shirt.His mouth touched my temple next.I opened my eyes. Morning light had reached the bed, pale and quiet behind the curtains. Adam was watching me from the pillow beside mine, his hair untidy and his face softer than I was used to seeing it.“How long have you been awake?” I asked.“Not long.” His thumb moved beneath my eye. “How do you feel?”The answer waited in the heaviness behind my ribs. Mom was sick. A test was waiting for me. None of it had changed while I slept.“Kiss me again.”Adam searched my face before lowering his mouth to mine.He kissed me carefully. I moved closer and kissed him harder.His hand slid from my waist to the back of my neck. The next kiss landed deeper, taking the last of the sleep from me. I opened my mouth beneath his, and his tongue brushed mine slowly before the control in him began to loos

    Eve POVMom’s breathing grew rougher before my crying stopped.Dad moved towards her immediately, but she shook her head when he tried to lift her from the sofa. “I can walk, Alan.”Her voice betrayed her. He slid an arm around her waist, and I rose with them, still holding her hand.“I’m coming upstairs.”Mom touched my damp cheek. “You have travelled all night. Let me sleep for a little while, baby.”“What if you need something?”“Your father will be there.” She glanced at Adam behind me, then looked back into my eyes. “I’m not disappearing because you leave the room.”She knew exactly what I feared. Dad loosened my fingers, and I watched him guide her upstairs. She stopped twice to catch her breath.Adam waited until they disappeared upstairs before touching my back. At his quiet instruction, I sat. He crouched before me and held my hands without promising everything would be fine.Dad returned twenty minutes later with his phone in his hand.“The consultant called,” he said. “Aure

    Consciousness returned in pieces.The dry scrape in my throat. The pressure of a cuff around my arm. A ceiling so white it hurt to look at. I turned my head and found Alan sitting in a chair beside the examination bed.His tie hung loose, and a dark stain marked the cuff where my face must have pressed against him. He watched the floor until the paper beneath me shifted.His head lifted. “Miss Montrose?”“Montgomery.” The correction came out weak and rough.His shoulders eased. “How do you feel?”I tried to sit up. The room moved, and Alan caught my arm before I slipped.“Dont stand,” he said.I looked down at his hand. He released me and stepped back, although he remained close enough to catch me again.“Where am I?”“My doctor’s office. You lost consciousness.” His jaw tightened around the last two words. “You were unresponsive in the car.”The office lights, our argument and his face disappearing behind black spots returned. Shame burned as I imagined him carrying me through the bu

    His hand was still clamped over my mouth when I shoved at his chest. He removed it slowly but didn’t step back. “Why are you here with Gal?” he demanded. I swallowed, keeping my chin up even though my heart was slamming against my ribs, “that’s none of your business.” His jaw flexed, “it

    “Excuse you?” I said, eyes wide, phone pressed to my ear like I didn’t just hear what I thought I heard. Alan’s voice didn’t even flinch. “You heard me.” “Why the fuck would I do that?” I snapped, sitting up straight on my bed, heart racing. “You said you wanted your life back,” he said, vo

    I headed downstairs, arms folded tight across my chest. My mouth was dry, my heart still thumping from what I saw. Or thought I saw. Frank’s disaster from earlier was thankfully gone from the living room. Couch was empty. Lights were dimmed. I let out a slow breath, half-expecting to find Alan

    My first instinct was to push him off but he grabbed my wrist before I could slip away, dragging me down so fast I landed on top of him, my tits pressed against his chest. “What the fuck is wrong with you?!” I snapped, struggling to pull back. He stared at me like I just committed a crime. Hi
