“I understand, doctor. We shall be there.”

Her voice had been steady when she said it. It was too steady. Then she disconnected the call. And silence followed. The air in the room felt heavier.

Cassienne lowered the phone slowly from her ear. For a second, she just stared at the blank screen, as if the words she had just heard were still echoing inside it.

Merrick was the first to step closer.

“I hope she’s okay?” he asked quickly, already crossing the short distance toward her.

    The atmosphere inside Aurora Stephen’s boutique was unusually busy this afternoon. Assistants moved back and forth between fitting rooms carrying carefully arranged garment bags while two stylists argued softly near the fabric display over which imported material should be used for a custom evening gown. The soft sound of instrumental music floated through the elegant space, blending naturally with the quiet conversations happening around the showroom. Near the center fitting platform, Aurora Stephen stood reviewing sketches on a digital tablet while one of her assistants waited nervously beside her. “No,” Aurora said calmly, zooming in on the design again. “The neckline ruins the structure of the dress completely. It’s too aggressive.” “But the client specifically requested something dramatic.” Aurora handed the tablet back without looking up. “Dramatic and tasteless are not the same thing, Sophie.” The assistant immediately nodded. “I’ll have the design team adjust it.” Auro

    At the mention of Lucien and the Noah family, Cassienne’s expression changed faintly. Daisy would be there. And Ray too, most likely if someone had already invited him. Cassienne felt that it wouldn't be a good combination. The entire web of their lives seemed to be moving toward Lisbourn. Dreston saw the thought forming in her face. “What is it?” Cassienne reached for her glass of water. “Nothing. I’m just thinking this event sounds less like a gala and more like everyone we know being placed inside one room.” Jessica grinned. “Exactly. That is why it will be glorious.” Dreston did not look nearly as amused. “It also means heavy media attention and increased security risk.” Jessica’s excitement dimmed slightly. “You think it’s dangerous?” “I think anything public is dangerous right now.” Cassienne turned to him, knowing exactly where his mind had gone. Tina. The hit-and-run. Her own attack. The old lab. The enemies still hiding in the dark. “I don’t have to attend,” she sai

    And for now, that was enough. She leaned forward and kissed him softly. Dreston responded slowly at first, then with growing warmth, his hand sliding against her back as if he wanted to memorize the feel of her all over again. The kiss didn't come with the desperation of the night before. It was calmer and intimate in a different way. More like peace at last. When Cassienne finally pulled back, Dreston followed her slightly, reluctant to let the moment end. She smiled against his lips. “You really don’t want to go to work.” “I don’t.” “Then what do you want to do?” “Stay here.” “And?” “With you.” “And?” He looked at her with open amusement now. “You’re trying to trap me into saying something inappropriate.” “I’m trying to see if you have shame.” “I don’t. At least not with you.” Cassienne laughed again, this time more freely. Dreston’s expression softened as he watched her. These were the moments he really missed while they were pretending, hiding, calculating every mov

    The early morning sun came slowly, slipping through the tall windows of Dreston and Cassienne’s bedroom before spreading across the wide bed. At this hour, the house was too quiet, almost like no one lived there, as if even the walls understood that the people inside needed rest after so many days of tension, travel, fear, and uncertainty. A few minutes later. Cassienne woke first, eyes opened as she tried to get herself back in order. Then for a few seconds, she simply lay there beneath the warm sheets, listening to the quiet rhythm of Dreston’s breathing behind her. His arm was heavy around her waist, his palm resting possessively against the lower part of her stomach in that unconscious way he had developed lately. Even in sleep, he held her like his body refused to forget that she was carrying his child. That made her smile a little. Last night really softened something between them again. Though it didn't fully fix everything, because nothing about their lives could be fi

    Cassienne kissed him. Not like the feared CEO that he truly is. But like her husband. The man who rules her world. The father of her unborn child. And immediately, the restraint inside him cracked. Dreston’s hands tightened around her waist as he deepened the kiss instantly, pulling her closer until she almost lost balance against him. The kiss carried days of exhaustion, fear, longing, and relief all at once. Cassienne’s fingers curled lightly against his shoulders as she kissed him back with equal need. God, she had missed him too. Dreston stood suddenly, lifting her effortlessly into his arms without breaking the kiss. Cassienne let out a soft surprised sound against his lips that only seemed to encourage him further. He carried her and laid her down carefully beneath him. For a moment, he simply looked at her, like he needed the reminder that she was safe, alive and his. Cassienne reached upward and touched his jaw gently. “Why are you looking at me like that?” “Because I n

    It was already past eleven when the front gates of Dreston Tremont mansion finally opened. The black convoy rolled smoothly into the compound one after another before coming to a controlled stop beneath the soft golden lights outside the main entrance. Inside the first vehicle, Dreston remained seated for a few extra seconds after the engine died. The exhaustion on his face was impossible to hide now. He had barely slept properly in days. Between Tina’s condition, the investigation, the growing suspicion surrounding the old lab, and the constant fear hanging over Cassienne Rhodes, his body was finally beginning to feel the pressure of it all. Steve stepped out first and opened the rear door for him. “Sir.” Dreston gave a small nod and stepped out of the vehicle slowly. The cold night air hit his face immediately, but it did little to clear the heaviness sitting inside his chest. He was tired. Not just physically, but both mentally and emotionally. And honestly, the only thing

    The arena was nothing short of breathtaking. Built inside the heart of the Lisbourn Royal Resorts, the e-sport hall looked more like a futuristic coliseum than a gaming venue. Layers of curved LED screens wrapped around the circular structure, displaying rotating graphics of the competing compan

    The bedroom was bathed in the soft, golden hues of dawn. Sunlight slipped through the sheer curtains like gentle fingers, tracing patterns across the rumpled white sheets.

    Cassienne walked steadily down the hallway of the hospital, her heels clicking softly with each step. In her hands was a small paper bag from a nearby grocery store. Inside were fresh fruits she had picked up on her way—grapes, apples, and sliced oranges. It wasn’t much, but bringing something for
