For a long moment, Damien just looked at her. His eyes traveled over her body slowly, deliberately, taking in every detail as if committing her to memory. The weight of his gaze was almost tangible, making her hyperaware of every inch of exposed skin.

"Do you have any idea how beautiful you are?" His voice was rough with desire. "Kneeling there, wearing my marks, completely bare for me. You look like every fantasy I've ever had."

His hand in her hair tightened slightly, controlling without hurt

  • The Maid's Deception   Chapter 135: The Note

    Then he stepped back, putting distance between them again. Professional space. Safe space."Go home," he said, his voice rough. "You've had a hard day. Get some rest.""But it's only 5 PM. I usually stay until....""I know. But I'm telling you to go. Take the evening. Recover. Come back tomorrow ready to keep fighting."She nodded, gathering her things from his office. As she reached the door, she paused."Damien?""Yes?""Thank you. For telling me about Victoria. For...for pushing her away. It helps. Knowing that.""Good. Now go. Before I do something stupid like kiss you."The words sent heat flooding through her. But she obeyed, leaving his office and returning to her desk.As she packed up her things, she noticed something she'd missed before.A small piece of paper on her desk, folded in half. Her name written on the outside in Damien's bold handwriting.She opened it with trembling hands.She means nothing. You mean everything. I'm sorry I made you doubt that. I'm sorry I keep h

  • The Maid's Deception   Chapter 134: You were testing me. Again

    ARIA'S POVAria returned to the office exactly fifteen minutes later, her face carefully composed, her makeup fixed, all evidence of tears erased.She could do this. She could walk back to her desk and pretend everything was fine. Could maintain professional distance. Could endure.Even if it was killing her.The 47th floor was quieter now, late afternoon settling into early evening. Most of the junior staff had already left. Just the executives remained, their offices still lit, still working.And Damien. Always Damien.She could see him through the glass walls of his office. Alone now, thank god. Victoria was gone.Aria settled at her desk and tried to focus on her work. She had emails to respond to, schedules to coordinate, documents to prepare for tomorrow's meetings.Normal tasks. Normal work. Nothing that required her to think about Victoria or jealousy or the fact that another woman had touched him and he'd allowed it.She'd been working for maybe five minutes when movement cau

  • The Maid's Deception   Chapter 133: Victoria Showed Up Again

    DAMIEN'S POV Damien sat across from three Japanese investors at an exclusive restaurant and tried to focus on their proposal for the Tokyo expansion.He couldn't.All he could think about was Aria's face when Victoria had left his office. The devastation she'd tried to hide. The jealousy she'd thought he hadn't noticed.He'd noticed. Noticed everything. The way her hands had clenched. The way her breathing had changed. The way she'd fled to the bathroom.And the guilt was eating him alive.He'd let Victoria touch him. Let her sit on his desk, put her hand on his chest. Had done nothing to stop her deliberate invasion of his personal space.Because he'd wanted to see Aria's reaction. Wanted to know if she'd fight for him. If she cared enough to be jealous.It was cruel. Manipulative. Exactly the kind of test he'd promised himself he wouldn't do.And he'd done it anyway."Mr. Blackwood?" One of the investors was looking at him expectantly. "What do you think about the proposed timeline

  • The Maid's Deception   Chapter 132: Victoria Returns

    ARIA'S POV The day began like all the others....too early, too exhausting, too full of reminders that Aria was trying to earn back the trust of a man who was determined to keep her at arm's length.But at least the physical soreness from whatever had happened days ago had faded. Her body no longer ached with every movement, no longer reminded her with painful clarity that Damien had touched her in ways she couldn't remember.Small mercies.She arrived at the office at 7:45 AM, prepared his coffee with mechanical precision, and settled at her desk to review the day's schedule.Board meeting at 10 AM. Lunch with potential investors at 12:30 PM. Conference calls at 2 PM and 4 PM. A full day, as always.At 8 AM sharp, Damien arrived.Their routine had become almost comfortable in its predictability. He walked past her desk with a curt nod. She brought him his coffee two minutes later. He thanked her without looking up from his computer. She returned to her desk and began the day's work.

  • The Maid's Deception    Chapter 131: I wouldn't have wanted you to stop

    She sent it before she could second-guess herself. Before fear could stop her from being honest.She saw him read it. Saw his whole body tense. Saw him close his eyes like the words had physically hurt him.His response took a full minute: Don't say things like that. Don't make this harder than it already is.I'm just being honest.Then stop being honest. Go back to being professional. Pretend last night never happened. That's what I'm going to do.Can you? Really? Can you pretend you didn't touch me? That you didn't make me come three times? That you didn't tell my mother you still love me?Another long pause.I have to. Because the alternative....acting on these feelings, giving in to this pull between us...will only end in more pain. I'm not ready to trust you yet, Aria. And until I am, we can't...I can't...I understand.Do you?Yes. You need more time. More proof. More certainty that I won't hurt you again. And until then, we stay professional. We maintain distance. We pretend la

  • The Maid's Deception    Chapter 130: Fragments

    ARIA'S POVThe text from Damien haunted Aria for the rest of the afternoon.Stop trying to remember. Some things are better left forgotten.She deleted it immediately....didn't want evidence of his personal communication on her work phone...but the words burned in her mind.He'd done something. Something he didn't want her to remember. Something significant enough that he'd broken his own rule about not texting her personally to tell her to stop digging.Which only made her want to remember more.She tried to focus on work. Tried to lose herself in the mundane tasks of scheduling meetings and preparing documents and managing his impossibly complex calendar.But every few minutes, another flash would surface.His mouth on her neck. Hot. Possessive. Marking her.Fingers.....his fingers?...sliding through wetness, exploring, claiming.A voice...his voice....rough with need: "You're mine."Each fragment was visceral, physical, undeniable. Not dreams. Not fantasies. Memories. Her body reme

    She hooked her fingers into the waistband and pushed them down, stepping out of them carefully. Now she was completely naked, standing at the edge of the hot spring while he watched from the water."Come here," Damien said, his voice thick with need. "Get in."She moved to the edge and carefully st
