Aria made it to her room and closed the door before her legs finally gave out.

She slid down to sit on the floor, back against the door, her entire body still trembling from what had just happened.

What did I just do?

Her hand went to the necklace at her throat the warm metal a constant reminder of Damien's words. "This is mine, marking what's mine."

She should take it off. Should throw it away.

Should march back to his study and tell him she wasn't his possession, wasn't something he could cl

  • The Maid's Deception   Chapter 26: Aria Took Food T o His Office

    She was finishing Damien's room when Mrs. Chen appeared in the doorway."Sarah, there's been a change to today's schedule. Mr. Blackwood called. He wants you to bring lunch to his office at noon, but then you're to take the rest of the afternoon off."Aria blinked. "Off? Why?""He didn't say. Just that you should rest and be ready for this evening." Mrs. Chen's expression was carefully neutral, but something in her eyes suggested she knew more than she was saying. "He also left this for you."She held out a small box.Aria took it with trembling hands. Inside was another piece of jewelry....delicate gold earrings that matched the necklace perfectly. And a note in his bold handwriting:Wear these tonight. Along with the necklace. I want to see my marks on you.—D"Thank you, Mrs. Chen." The older woman lingered in the doorway. "Sarah...or whoever you really are...be very careful. Mr. Blackwood is brilliant and ruthless and absolutely relentless when he wants something. And right now,

  • The Maid's Deception   Chapter 25: He'd given her three orgasms in two nights

    Aria made it back to her room in a daze, her body still trembling, her mind spinning.Three orgasms. He'd given her three orgasms in two nights without taking anything for himself.It should have made her suspicious because men didn't do things without expecting something in return. But Damien seemed genuinely satisfied just watching her pleasure, just knowing he was the cause of it.Just claiming her piece by piece.She pulled out her real phone and saw messages waiting. From Marcus: Hospital called. Your mom wants to talk. Says it's important.From an unknown number that could only be one person: Your mother is running out of time. Whatever you are planning, you needs to hurry. —Dr. MorrisonThe reminder was like cold water.Her mother. The mission. The reason she was here.She'd been so consumed with Damien that she'd barely thought about the greenhouse. About accessing the restricted areas. About actually getting the plant she came for.You're losing focus. This is exactly what yo

  • The Maid's Deception   Chapter 24: I'm going to touch you now

    The image his words painted made her clench with renewed arousal despite having just climaxed."You're insatiable," Damien observed with satisfaction, clearly feeling her body's response. "Your body wants more even when your mind thinks it can't handle it. That's exactly how I want you...desperate. Needy. So consumed with desire that nothing else matters."He stood smoothly, taking her with him, and carried her to the sofa where he laid her down. She should feel self-conscious, lying there in just lingerie while he remained fully dressed. But the way he looked at her made her feel powerful instead of vulnerable."I'm going to touch you now," Damien said, kneeling beside the sofa. "Really touch you. And you're going to let me. Because you trust me. Because you want this. Because you're finally ready to stop pretending you don't."His hand slid up her thigh, fingers tracing patterns on her skin. "Tell me you want this.""I want this.""Tell me you trust me."That was harder. Because she

  • The Maid's Deception   Chapter 23: Show me how good this feels

    Damien's kiss was different this time.Slower. Deeper. Like he had all the time in the world and intended to use every second of it to unravel her.His hands slid down her sides, fingertips tracing the lace edges of the bra, learning the shape of her through the delicate fabric he'd chosen for her. Every touch was deliberate, purposeful, designed to make her hyperaware of her own body.When he finally pulled back, Aria was breathing hard, her lips swollen, her skin flushed."Beautiful," he murmured, his thumb tracing her jaw. "Do you have any idea how long I've been thinking about this? About you? About having you exactly like this wearing what I bought you, standing in my study, completely mine.""I'm not...""Yes, you are." His hand slid to the back of her neck, firm and possessive. "You became mine the moment you put on this lingerie. The moment you walked through that door."He was right. She had made that choice. Had put on the lingerie knowing what it meant, knowing what he'd ta

  • The Maid's Deception   Chapter 22: Did you wear what I sent you?

    At 2 PM, Aria entered Damien's bedroom with fresh linens and the mysterious bag.She made the bed first, running her hands over the ridiculously soft Egyptian cotton sheets. These were the sheets he'd sleep on tonight. The sheets he'd chosen specifically for tonight.Why tonight? What's special about tonight?When the bed was made, she finally opened the bag.Inside was a box. And inside the box...Aria's breath caught.Lingerie. Expensive, beautiful lingerie in deep emerald green. A bra and panty set that was somehow both elegant and sinful. The kind of thing that was designed to be taken off.There was a note attached in his handwriting:Wear this tonight. My study. 8 PM. You'll be there.Not a request. Never a request with him.Aria held up the lingerie, her hands shaking. This was so far beyond professional boundaries it was laughable. He'd bought her lingerie. Expected her to wear it. Commanded her presence in his study.And the worst part? She was already mentally planning how s

  • The Maid's Deception   Chapter 21: Show Me The Necklace

    Aria didn't sleep much that night. Every time she closed her eyes, she felt Damien's hands on her body. Heard his voice in her ear. Felt that overwhelming rush of pleasure as she'd fallen apart.At 5 AM, she gave up and got out of bed, catching sight of herself in the small mirror.The necklace glinted at her throat delicate but unmistakable. A claim. A mark. A promise.She should take it off before anyone saw. Should hide it. Should pretend last night never happened.Instead, she tucked it under her uniform collar where it would be hidden but still present. Still touching her skin. Still reminding her.The staff kitchen was empty when she arrived. She made coffee and sat alone, trying to organize her thoughts.Okay. Reality check. You came here for a reason. Your mother is dying. You need that plant. That's what matters. Not..."You're up early."Aria jumped, nearly spilling her coffee.Damien stood in the doorway, already dressed for the day in a dark suit. He looked impossibly put-
