I couldn’t even bring myself to appreciate the breathtaking view from the hotel Ram had chosen in Miami, nor the golden glow of the sun bouncing off the ocean waves as our plane touched down. The city sparkled with life, every towering building reflecting the late afternoon light like shards of molten glass, the kind of skyline that should have made my chest tighten with awe. And yet, all I could feel was the pull of something far more urgent, far more distracting. My mind,. and my body had entirely different priorities.

My knees trembled beneath me, betraying a need I couldn’t even name, a heat pooling low in my stomach that made me want nothing more than to pull Ram away from everyone, somewhere secluded, somewhere that belonged only to the two of us. The warmth spreading through me was maddening, subtle yet relentless, amplified by the small toy hidden inside my underwear, the one Ram controlled with that infuriating grin of his from across the lobby. Every subtle vibration made my

  • The Wild Virgin (HER POV)    Chapter 91

    Macy was getting better, slowly, steadily, beautifully. Every morning I watched a little more color return to her cheeks, a little more strength to her voice, and every night I felt another crack inside me seal. Her healing mirrored something fragile but real between Ram and me, something that had been broken, battered, pushed to its limit, yet refused to die.By the sixth week, the doctors finally told us we could go home.Home.A simple word, but after everything we’d endured, it felt like a warm hand pressed to my chest, steadying me. Not the sterile, suffocating halls of the hospital where every day felt like a battle we weren’t sure we’d win… but home.A week had passed since then, and Macy, my brave little warrior, had been glowing. She happily narrated her “surgery story” to Claire like she had just survived a battle and won. Watching the two of them made me feel a fullness in my chest I couldn’t quite name. Relief, love, gratitude… maybe all of it.I was happy too. Truly.Not

  • The Wild Virgin (HER POV)    Chapter 90

    I remembered only fragments of the past few days, blurred pieces of moments that no longer aligned properly, as if time itself had been shaken hard and left in a scattered mess across my memory. Everything felt smudged around the edges, like a photograph that had been handled by too many hands. All I truly remembered with any painful clarity was the hospital, the endless white halls that seemed to stretch into forever, the sharp sting of antiseptic clinging stubbornly to my clothes, the quiet mechanical hum that seemed to pulse with every room I entered, and the ache, deep, settled, constant, lodged in the center of my chest. It throbbed like a second heartbeat. A broken one.“I want to stay with her…” The sound of my own voice startled me. It didn’t sound like mine anymore. It was hoarse, brittle, scraped raw from hours, no, days of crying, begging, pleading until my throat felt carved from sandpaper.The foreign doctor facing me wore a kind expression, but it was a rehearsed kindn

  • The Wild Virgin (HER POV)    Chapter 89

    It was already past nine in the evening when Claire and Andrew finally decided to head home. The moment the door clicked shut behind them, the house exhaled into a quieter hush, softer somehow, emptied of their laughter yet still warm with the imprint of it. The night felt gentler, the kind that wrapped itself around you instead of weighing you down.I had tucked Macy into bed not long after, smoothing her soft hair back as her lashes fluttered once, then twice, before surrendering to the deep, unguarded sleep only children seemed capable of. She didn’t fight it, not tonight. She had exhausted herself with joy, real, innocent, unfiltered joy, after seeing Claire. Watching the two of them giggle, cling, and whisper to each other with the fierce devotion of siblings reunited had eased something raw inside me, a wound I didn’t even realize was still bleeding.As I walked down the hallway, my smile lingered. Everything felt lighter. Softer. Like hope was a thing I could touch again if I j

  • The Wild Virgin (HER POV)    Chapter 88

    For the first time in six long years, I slept peacefully. No nightmares clawed at me, no shadows haunted my dreams. I stretched, savoring the rare stillness, letting my limbs extend slowly, luxuriating in the quiet warmth of the sheets. My hand drifted lazily, fingers brushing against something solid, and my eyes flew open.Ram Jordan. Reclining on his side, head propped in one hand, watching me with that steady, unreadable gaze that always seemed to see through me. My heart jolted violently in my chest, every instinct screaming at me to leap from the bed, but the heat radiating from his presence pinned me in place. That slow, almost mischievous smile tugged at my restraint, making any attempt at composure impossible.Right. Last night. I had slept in his bed. Not just slept. My subconscious reminded me sharply, mortifyingly, and I yanked the duvet over my chest, trying desperately to shield myself from him, and perhaps from my own racing thoughts.He raised a single eyebrow, amusemen

  • The Wild Virgin (HER POV)    Chapter 87

    It was already well past nine when Macy finally drifted into sleep, her tiny body curled into the soft blankets like a kitten seeking warmth. I lingered beside her longer than I needed to, letting my fingers sweep slowly through her hair, memorizing every rise and fall of her breathing. She always slept like this, peaceful, trusting, unaware of how fragile I felt inside every time I tucked her in.Only when I was certain she had fully surrendered to her dreams did I pull myself away, reluctant but careful, easing my weight off the bed inch by inch so I wouldn’t disturb her. The room felt colder the moment I stepped out of her warmth. I padded toward the door on quiet feet, glancing back one last time at her sleeping face before slipping into the hallway.I still couldn’t decide whether I should be grateful, or terrified that Ram had agreed so easily to give me my own bedroom. I had told him I needed space. That sharing a room this soon felt like stepping into a memory I wasn’t ready t

  • The Wild Virgin (HER POV)    Chapter 86

    I felt a wave of nervousness wash over me the moment I saw Ram Jordan’s house, looming in all its three-story, French-style glory. The same house where, six years ago, I had let myself dream, dream of a life, a family, a future with him. Even from the outside, it screamed wealth and power, the kind of luxury that made your chest tighten, your heart beat faster, as though the very air around you was charged with expectation. And now, standing here, I felt that same weight pressing down on me, a familiar heaviness that seemed to thicken the air, make it harder to breathe.The house hadn’t changed much. At least, not enough for me to notice at a glance. But when I looked closely, subtle transformations caught my eye. The grand entrance door was wider, almost as though it could swallow the world whole, and the garden had been transformed into a vibrant tapestry of colors, lush greens, soft pastels, bright blooms arranged with a perfection that was both welcoming and intimidating.
