Tie Me Up Daddy Chapter 112
Seraphina's POVThe silence arrived without warning.One moment we were in the middle of something serious, the next there was nothing left to say, and neither of us reached to fill it. The study lamp threw its circle of warm light across the desk between us. Outside, the garden had gone fully dark.Lorenzo set down the pen. "We've covered what needed covering." He leaned back slightly. "How are you doing? Actually."I blinked."Actually?""You look like you've been sleeping four hours a night for two weeks.""I'm fine.""You keep saying that.""Because it keeps being true."He looked at me for a moment, and then—and this was the part I hadn't expected—the corner of his mouth moved. The almost-smile he deployed rarely and without warning."The last time you said you were fine," he said, "you were sitting on a couch in my house and had been awake for something like thirty hours."

Seraphina's POVI wasn't sure what made me stay. The chair was still where I'd pulled it, angled slightly toward him, and when he didn't reach for anything or check his phone or do any of the things people do when they're signaling that a meeting is over, I found myself still there—the late afternoon pressing against the window, the study quiet around us in that particular way of rooms that have absorbed a long time of serious thought."Sebastian Reyes." Lorenzo said the name like he was picking up something he'd set down a long time ago. "He and I have a history.""I figured that much."He was quiet for a moment. Not the kind of quiet that meant he was deciding whether to speak—more like he was deciding where to start."Twelve years ago," he said, "Sebastian ran a mid-tier operation in the city. Not a family in the traditional sense. More like a network—financial crime, import logistics, a few politicians in his
Tie Me Up Daddy Chapter 110
Seraphina's POVI'd been inside the Vitale estate once before, briefly, moving through rooms that announced themselves in the language of old money and deliberate intimidation—marble, dark wood, the kind of silence that had been engineered rather than allowed to develop naturally. The main rooms were built to make people feel the weight of who lived here before they'd said a single word.The study was different. Smaller. A desk that had actually been used, its surface carrying the faint geography of work—a pen left uncapped, a stack of folders with a legal pad wedged beneath them, a coffee cup that hadn't been cleared away. Bookshelves that held books that had been read, their spines creased and uneven. One window looking out onto the back garden, light coming through it at an angle that had nothing to do with aesthetics.Lorenzo was standing when I came in. He didn't move to meet me, just watched me cross the room with that particul

Lorenzo's POVHer message came in at eleven forty-seven p.m.Two words. No punctuation.I read it once and set my phone face-down on the desk.Nico had arrived twenty minutes earlier with the report I'd requested, three pages folded into a plain envelope, no cover sheet. He'd placed it on the corner of my desk without comment and taken his usual position near the window---not quite standing at attention, not quite at ease, that precise middle distance he occupied when he expected the contents of whatever he'd delivered to require a response.He was right.I read it through once, steadily, then went back to the second page.The timeline was clean enough to be damning. Sterling Prescott had walked out of federal custody at three-fourteen Thursday afternoon. The lobby footage at Seraphina's building had gone dark at eleven forty-two that same night. Two hours of nothing, then normal operations resumed as if nothing had i

Seraphina's POVThe drawer was empty.I opened it once, closed it. Opened it again, the way you do when you've already processed the information but your body refuses to accept it. The folder was gone. Not pushed to the back, not slipped beneath the drawer liner---gone. Gone as cleanly as if it had never been there. No scuff marks on the wood from a hasty grab. No displaced pens, no disturbed paperclips. Whoever had come for it had known exactly where to look, and they had taken their time.I called building security from the kitchen, one hand wrapped around a mug I hadn't drunk from. The guard on duty---a heavyset man named Dermott who'd been covering the overnight shift when I first moved in---told me what I'd already suspected. The lobby camera had gone dark for two hours, starting at eleven forty-two p.m. and resuming at one fifty-seven. No record of unauthorized entry. No record of anything."Technical fault," Dermott said, with the
Tie Me Up Daddy Chapter 107
Sebastian's POVThe report sat on my desk for most of Thursday morning.I'd had it pulled from the Heller & Crane system through the same channel I used for everything that needed to arrive without a paper trail. Twelve pages. Clean formatting. The liability restructuring on page four was, I had to admit, genuinely elegant—the kind of analytical move that required someone to hold three competing frameworks in their head simultaneously and find the load-bearing overlap between them. At three in the morning, according to the timestamp.She hadn't broken. Hadn't called in reinforcements. Hadn't made any of the moves I'd prepared responses for.She'd simply done the work.I set the report aside and poured coffee.There was a version of this situation in which I found Seraphina Ashford straightforwardly admirable. The version where she was just a smart, self-sufficient young woman who'd been handed an unfair set of circumstances and was

Seraphina's POVLorenzo Vitale was watching me.The phone slipped from my fingers. Sterling's voice still buzzed from the speaker, as heat flooded my face.Did he hear me?Did he hear me say I'd rather sleep with him than let Sterling touch me again?I scrambled to end the call, my hands shaking so

Seraphina's POVI stood outside Crimson Thorn, the garment bag clutched in my trembling hands.What am I doing here?The question echoed in my skull with every heartbeat. Lorenzo Vitale was a ghost—a shadow that moved through the city's underbelly without pattern or predictability. He had legitimat

Seraphina's POV"Besides," Wren continued, a wicked gleam returning to her eyes, "think about the poetic justice. If you actually managed to win over Lorenzo Vitale? Sterling would have to call you mother-in-law."I choked. "What?""He's dating Vivienne, right? And Lorenzo is Vivienne's father." She
