KIER

I gently led her trembling body toward the stall, concern etched on my face. "What’s the matter?" I inquired, noticing the thick steam billowing from the shower head. It was clear she had cranked the water up to an intense heat.

I quickly adjusted the temperature, setting the water to a more comfortable level. The steam began to fade a bit, and I turned my gaze to her fragile, exposed form pressed against the wall, hunched and shivering, my jaw clenched tight.

How could someone be so terrified of a simple shower?

Her front was still to me, the scars on her skin stark against her pale complexion. Just seeing them made my chest constrict. I forced myself to take slow, deep breaths. Losing my cool wouldn’t do her any good.

“Genesis,” I said gently, stepping a little closer. She flinched but didn’t retreat this time. I took that as a sign of progress.

“You’re okay, it’s just water,” I reassured her, keeping my voice steady. My hand hovered near her shoulder, but I refrained from tou

  • The Womanizer's Mute Wife    First Gift

    GENESISI sat beside Daisy as we both watched a movie. I was so focused on the screen that I didn’t hear the footsteps behind me—until a hand wrapped gently around my throat. I stiffened, just for a second. But then… the scent, the warmth of the hand—it was instantly recognizable.And then came the voice.“Hello, princess. Missed me?”I turned my head slightly, and he pressed a kiss to the top of my lips, sending heat rushing to my face. Daisy was right there. Thank goodness the lights were off.“Well, I missed you,” he murmured, licking the same spot he'd kissed, his hand tightening slightly around my neck.Then he leaned closer, his breath brushing my ear.“I want to fuck you,” he whispered.My eyes widened, and I jolted forward, slipping from the chair and out of his grasp. I shot him a faint frown. He just chuckled, running a hand through his already tousled hair.“Is my angel mad at me?”He rounded the chair and stopped just inches from me, then without warning, he wrapped his ha

    GENESIS“Don’t hide from me, baby. I’m so sorry.”I looked down at his grip on my wrist, then back up at him. He looked sorry—truly—but I still felt so dirty. His words echoed in my head, impossible to forget.“I promise you, baby, I didn’t give her permission to take you anywhere. I would never do that. She’s my friend, yes, but I’d never allow her to do something like that,” he said, gently brushing my hair away from my face. His touch was soft, but his fingers pressed into my skin like he needed me to believe him.I wanted to. He looked like he was telling the truth.But I couldn’t. Why should I?“Dammit… you still don’t believe me.” He sighed, voice taut. “Come. I’ll prove it to you.”Before I could react, he was lifting me off the bathroom floor. I gasped, startled, and instinctively wrapped my arms around his neck—even though I didn’t want to.We stepped out of the bathroom and into the bedroom. We were both dripping wet, leaving puddles in our wake. The cold air hit me instantl

    KIERAN“Kieran, how can you do this to me? Just because of that girl. You’ve known me longer than you’ve known her,” Veronica said, her face pale, lips chapped and peeling.I leaned against the wall, watching her as I took a slow drag from the cigarette between my fingers. I should’ve known better. Trusted my instincts. I wasn’t stupid. Veronica wanted me. Not because she loved me. She didn’t love anyone, not in that way. She believed marrying into the Blackwood family would throw her into the spotlight, give her more fame.But she should’ve known better. I never gave her reason to think anything would happen between us. I never once slept with her or felt the urge to fuck her brains out. She was always stuck in the friend zone. Still, I saw it—her jealousy, the hunger in her eyes for something she thought she deserved. But she was wrong.“You didn’t just cross a line, Veronica,” I said quietly, blowing a stream of smoke toward the window. “You dragged that line, stomped on it, then s

    GENESISTears rolled down my cheeks as I stared at Kade, then he wiped my lips but I turned my face away from his touch. Wasn’t he the same man who had let his friend take me away, saying he didn’t care?“Baby, don’t turn your face away from me. Did I do something wrong?” he murmured, his hand gently touching my face. I shivered at the touch but all I wanted was to crawl away—I couldn’t bear to look at him.I thought he was different... b-but he wasn’t. It was all my fault. Just because I hadn’t been hurt since I married him didn’t mean he wouldn’t eventually do something.Suddenly, I felt my jaw being gently turned toward him. “You’re upset with me?” His voice sounded as if he had just realized it.I tried to turn my head away again, my nose twitching, sure it was red from crying. I just wanted to hide in a corner and let the tears fall. What had I ever done to be so hated by everyone?No one loves me.Then his hand and warmth disappeared from my face. Of course, he would leave. Soon

    Veronica’s mouth opened and closed, then opened again. “I don’t understand. I didn’t do anything wrong!”Kieran nodded slowly, just as Damon shut the doors. The young models pressed themselves against the wall, pale and trembling. The cameramen huddled with them, frozen in place like cowards.One man stood out—the same one who had struck Genesis. A business associate of Veronica’s, he looked confused and visibly annoyed.Kieran stepped forward, the cold smile gone. He knelt in front of Veronica and placed a hand on her cheek. “Of course you didn’t,” he said softly. “Now go sit in that chair. I’d like to see something.”Veronica’s heartbeat thundered in her chest. Something was wrong. Very wrong. Before she could speak, Kieran gently lifted Genesis from her arms, cradling her bridal-style as he rose to his feet.“Now go sit. I don’t like repeating myself.”She hesitated, glancing around. No one moved. No one dared to help her.With shaky legs, she stood and made her way to the platform

    30 Minutes Earlier“Do you have everything in order?” Kieran murmured into his phone, his fingers moving quickly over the keyboard.Just then, the door slid open slightly and his assistant peeked in. Her cheeks were flushed as she hesitated in the doorway.“Um, sir... the AGT group is already in the conference room for that meeting,” she said quietly, realizing he was on a call.Kieran glanced up. “I'll be there. Give me a few minutes.”She nodded and closed the door with a soft click.He returned his gaze to the screen. “Have you tracked his movements? I want to know everything he does.”The response must’ve been affirmative, because his expression shifted slightly—satisfied.“Good.”“Okay, boss.”Then Kieran’s lips twitched. “Give the phone to my wife. And switch to video.”There was a pause. He glanced at the screen, expecting it to change. It didn’t.“…Did you hear me?”The reply made his blood run cold.“But boss… she’s not back yet.”Kieran immediately went still.“What the fuck
