When Forbidden Feels This Good CHAPTER 97: Black Bus
Cade’s POVScarlett's eyes were on mine.I held them.Tried to put into the holding of them everything I could not say in this corridor with five armed men and a gun at her head, the specific, complete, irreducible everything of what she was and what she meant and what the two heartbeats inside her meant and what this moment cost me in a currency I did not have enough of.Her chin lifted slightly.A small movement. Barely visible. But I knew her face well enough to read it, to understand that what she was communicating in that fractional lift of her chin was not surrender and not defeat but something closer to 'I am alright, I am still here, do what you need to do.'She was braver than anyone I had ever known."Fuck," I said.The word came out of me like something physical being expelled, all the fury and the helplessness and the specific anguish of the next movement I was about to make finding its only available exit.I turned toward the bus.My feet moved across the service corridor
When Forbidden Feels This Good CHAPTER 96: Caught!
Cade’s POVWe were close.Twenty feet from the service elevator, maybe less, the corridor was empty ahead of us, Russo's men waiting at the rear exit four floors below, the whole thing almost clean, almost contained, almost the version of this situation where everyone got out, and the consequences were manageable.Almost.I heard her phone hit the floor before I registered that she had dropped it, the specific hard crack of a device meeting concrete, and I turned in time to see Scarlett bend down to retrieve it with the instinct of someone whose phone contained things that mattered, that contained her mother's voice notes and her scan images and my note photographed and saved and all the small irreplaceable evidence of a life being lived.The bend took her below my eyeline for half a second.Half a second was enough.Biggy came out of the stairwell door to our left with the efficiency of someone who had been positioned there deliberately, who had known the service corridor was the exi
When Forbidden Feels This Good CHAPTER 95: MOVE!
Cade’s POVI looked at what I had typed.Considered it.Scarlett was off the bed before I had finished considering it, crossing the room with the speed of someone who had read my intentions correctly from across the room, her hand closing around my wrist and yanking the phone downward with both hands and the full commitment of a woman who was not playing.I let her take it."I'm joking," I said, and felt the laugh arrive despite everything, genuine and slightly helpless, the specific laugh of a man who had been caught doing something ridiculous and could not entirely regret it. "I wasn't going to send that."She held the phone against her chest and looked at me with the expression she wore when she was assessing whether I was telling the truth, running the available evidence against her knowledge of my established patterns."I know you, Cade," she said. "You were absolutely going to send that.""Well," I admitted, because she was right and lying about it would have been insulting to b
When Forbidden Feels This Good CHAPTER 94: Risky Text
Cade’s POVThe message notification sat on her screen like a small, deliberate provocation.Scarlett looked at it and looked away, which told me everything I needed to know about whether she had already read the preview on the lock screen, which she had, and whether she intended to make this easy for me, which she did not."Go on," I said. "Check your message.""No." She kept her eyes deliberately elsewhere, performing disinterest with the specific quality of someone very interested. "I'll check it when I want to.""I insist.""And I said no." She turned to look at me then, the fire in her eyes the particular fire of someone who has decided on a position and is not entertaining a review of it.I looked at her for exactly one second.Then I reached past her arm and took the phone from her back pocket."Cade." She grabbed for it immediately, both hands, quick and serious. "Give it back."I raised my arm.She jumped, fingers closing on air, approximately four inches below the phone."You
When Forbidden Feels This Good CHAPTER 93: Possible Threat
Scarlett’s POV"I swear," he said, "I will cut his tongue out." His grip on my wrists tightened fractionally, not painfully, just with the increased pressure of someone whose body was expressing what their voice was trying to keep controlled. "You are mine. Mine alone. That has not changed because he showed you a rooftop and smiled at you.""You won't do anything," I said."You know me, Scarlett." His forehead dropped toward mine, not touching, just close, the proximity of something that wanted to close the distance and was holding itself at the last inch. "I don't bluff. Dare me, and I will serve you his tongue on a silver platter.""I dare you," I said."Scarlett." My name came out of him the way it sometimes did, like a sound he had not decided to make, like the word itself had escaped before he could route it through anything more controlled, a low, rough thing that came from somewhere below the anger and the jealousy and all the managed surfaces.I looked at him, at the dark eyes
When Forbidden Feels This Good CHAPTER 92: Marking Me
Scarlett’s POVCade, in a normal state of feeling, was already a significant presence in any room. Cade, with his jaw set and his eyes dark and the particular stillness of a man who has been waiting long enough that the waiting has converted itself into something considerably less patient, was something else entirely.He looked at me the way he looked at things that had caused him genuine concern, with that complete, consuming focus that left no room for anything peripheral. And underneath the concern, visible to anyone who knew how to read him, which I did, entirely and against my better interests, was something that had nothing to do with concern and everything to do with the elevator I had just stepped out of and the two hours I had spent not in this hotel room."Not now, please," I said, moving past him toward the door. "I need to shower and rest. I had a fun afternoon."He turned to follow me."Fun afternoon," he said. He said it the way he repeated things when he was working to
When Forbidden Feels This Good CHAPTER 18: The Tip off!
Scarlett's POVWe pressed ourselves against the wall of the jewellery shop, hidden in shadows, barely breathing as James and Rachel studied the restaurant menu not thirty feet away.My heart hammered so hard I was certain they'd hear it. Cade's hand was still over my mouth, his body a solid wall of

Scarlett's POVThe silence in the operating room was suffocating.I stared at Cade's profile, at the hard line of his jaw, and at the way his hands gripped the table's edge like he was holding himself back from something violent."She'll do it."The words kept echoing in my head. Flat. Final. Like

Cade’s POV"Look." I forced myself to focus on her face, not her body. "Put on your clothes. We can fight later. I need to find Scarlett. She's out there in the middle of nowhere.”"Oh, quit the act, Cade." Lee pulled on jeans and a black tank top. "Don't act as if you care too much about her.""If

Cade's POVThe late afternoon sun filtered through the gauzy curtains, painting Scarlett's skin in shades of honey and gold. She was draped across my chest, one leg thrown over mine, her breathing finally settling into something close to normal after the past hour.Or two hours. I'd lost track of t
