ANTON / SELENE

The first thing I noticed was that Selene wasn't drinking.

The glass sat untouched in front of her.

Tiny droplets of condensation slid slowly down the side, gathering at the base before disappearing into the coaster beneath it.

Every few seconds, her gaze drifted toward it as though the answer to whatever was weighing on her mind might somehow be floating inside.

I looked away before she caught me watching.

The bar was crowded enough to fill the silence between

  • The Husband Who Fell in Love With Me Twice    The Part Of Jordan I Never Knew

    ASHLEYI stood in front of Garrett’s door, holding a plate of pancakes in my hands.I sighed, glancing back at my own door.I’d already given Zara my word that I would talk to him. If I turned around now, I’d be going back on it.I took a deep breath and pressed the doorbell.It rang through the apartment.A few seconds later, the lock clicked, and the door opened.Garrett stood in the doorway wearing a white T-shirt and grey joggers. His gaze dropped to the plate in my hands before returning to my face.“Hi.” I forced my voice to sound casual. “I… I made extra pancakes and thought I’d share.”His expression remained unreadable.Then he started to close the door.“Wait.” I quickly reached out.He stopped, looking at me. “What do you want, Ashley?”I swallowed.“Can I come in?”For a moment, he simply stared at me.Then he stepped aside, silently inviting me in.“Thank you.” I mouthed as I stepped across the threshold.He closed the door behind me.My gaze swept across the apartment, an

  • The Husband Who Fell in Love With Me Twice    I Want To. Really

    SEBASTIAN and ASHLEY I arrived at the café and immediately spotted Irene already seated at a table.I walked over and took the seat across from her."Hey." She smiled."Hey." I returned the greeting."Do you still take black coffee, or do you want me to order something else?" she asked."No, I'm good." I leaned forward slightly. "What is it about Julian you wanted to tell me?"She picked up her coffee and took a sip before setting the cup back on the table."You need to be careful, okay?" she said.I frowned."I didn't realize it at first, but now that I was planning to go back, everything that's happened just doesn't make sense.""You need to say something I understand, Irene.""I'm saying Julian is plotting something against you." She leaned forward, lowering her voice. "Those messages I showed you were actually from Julian. You never sent those texts. You never told me to come back. It was all Julian. Everything."My suspicion had been right all along.Julian had done it."I thoug

  • The Husband Who Fell in Love With Me Twice    Don't Fuck This Up

    JORDANMy fingers moved steadily across the keyboard, the soft clicking filling the silence of my office.Then I heard a familiar voice coming from my secretary's office.My fingers stilled.I pushed back from my desk and walked toward the window. Through the glass, I caught sight of Ashley handing Mira a file.I didn't think twice.I crossed the room, opened my office door, and stepped out."Are you here to submit the report, Ms. Smith?" I asked, keeping my voice professional.Ashley looked at me for barely a second before quickly averting her gaze."I already gave it to your secretary. She'll hand it to you.""Yes, sir." Mira immediately extended the file toward me. "Here it is, sir."I took it from her."Well, I need to ask you some questions regarding the files, Ms. Smith." I looked directly at Ashley.Her eyes narrowed slightly. "What questions?""Come into my office."I turned and walked back inside without waiting for her response.A moment later, I heard her sigh before her fo

  • The Husband Who Fell in Love With Me Twice    You Happened

    SEBASTIANI carefully lifted my hand from Selene's waist, making sure not to disturb her, then quietly slipped out of bed.The dull pounding in my head was what had woken me.I rubbed my temples as I made my way to the bathroom. After relieving myself, I splashed some water on my face and headed back toward the bedroom.I had barely taken a few steps when my vision blurred.I stumbled, instinctively reaching for the wall to steady myself.Then—A memory slammed into me.I was younger. Much younger.I stood inside a gallery that looked eerily similar to Henderson Atelier, my eyes fixed on a painting hanging on the wall.Beside me stood Irene.A younger Irene.She had her hand wrapped around my arm, tugging gently as she tried to get me to look at another painting.I turned away from the artwork.And that's when I saw Selene.She stood a few feet away, watching me.The moment our eyes met, she quickly looked away.The memory vanished.Another one replaced it.I was older this time, stan

  • The Husband Who Fell in Love With Me Twice    Why Had This Time Felt Different?

    ANTONI knocked lightly on Ashley's desk.She lifted her head from the file in front of her and looked at me.“Isn't it about time you went home?” I asked, leaning against the edge of her desk.She sighed and closed the file. “I just wanted to finish this, but we can leave now.”She gathered the documents, slid them into the drawer, and locked it.“I'm tired as hell.”“Zara called,” I said. “She said you weren't picking up.”“Really?” She reached into her bag and pulled out her phone. The moment she glanced at the screen, she groaned. “Shit. My phone was on silent.”“Come on. Pack up.”“I'm almost done.”She tucked the last file away before grabbing her bag and standing.“Now we can go.”I smiled and fell into step beside her as we headed toward the garage.For a few moments, we walked in silence.Then Ashley broke it.“So, how's everything been?”“Okay.”I slipped my hands into my pockets, keeping my gaze ahead.She glanced at me. “You're not going to tell me what kept you off the ra

  • The Husband Who Fell in Love With Me Twice    What Is Your Motive?

    ASHLEY / JORDAN Before Arriving at the Restaurant“I was actually surprised you called,” Garrett said as he started the car.“You said I owed you a meal,” I replied, glancing out the window.“Yeah, but you didn't strike me as someone who'd make the first call.”I looked over at him. “It was lunchtime, and I…” I swallowed, suddenly aware of how that sounded. “I thought about you.”“Wow.”He glanced at me, a slow smile spreading across his face.“That’s an honor, really. To be thought of by you.”I chuckled and shook my head. “You’re unbelievable.”He laughed, turning his attention back to the road.“I didn't know you worked at Henderson Atelier,” he said. “It makes sense now that I know you're friends with Selene Henderson.”“Yeah.” I looked down at my hands. “We've been friends for a long time.”“That’s nice.” He nodded, then glanced at me briefly. “So, where are we having lunch?”“The Golden Castle.” I looked at him. “Have you been there?”He shook his head. “Not yet. I haven't real
