When Love Finds Its Way Back Chapter Sixteen: Waking Up In His Room.
Cassienne felt her head pounding before she even opened her eyes. The pain was sharp and heavy, as if someone was hitting a drum inside her skull. She winced and slowly lifted a hand to her forehead. Her mouth was dry, and her body felt weak. When she finally forced her eyes open, she blinked several times, trying to understand where she was. The ceiling above her was familiar. The clean scent, the warmth of the sheets, the wide soft mattress—it reminded her of her former bedroom. Her heartbeat quickened. Where am I? Her thoughts were messy, rushing through her head like scattered papers in a storm. Then, slowly, the memories of the previous night returned. It was her birthday. Her friends surprised her. And they were at the club. She remembered everything they did. Merrick, making her laugh, the Dancing, the free drinks and the cheering crowd. A small smile touched her lips. Yes… it was fun. For the first time in a long while, she felt free, no fear, no tension. Just laughter

As soon as Dreston got home, he quietly stepped out of his car and walked straight toward the mansion. Cassienne was fast asleep in his arms, her head resting weakly against his chest. She felt so light, almost weightless, and that only made his heart ache more. He pushed the front door open with his shoulder, trying not to wake her. Mrs. Rawlings was standing near the entrance, preparing to close the curtains for the night, when she suddenly saw him. Her eyes widened in shock. “Is she okay?” she asked quickly, her voice filled with worry as she rushed closer. “She will be,” Dreston said softly. “Please get me some warm lemon water.” Mrs. Rawlings nodded immediately and hurried off toward the kitchen. Without wasting time, Dreston carried Cassienne upstairs. Her body was warm and trembling slightly, like she'd been crying even in her sleep. He tightened his hold on her and walked faster. When he reached his bedroom, he gently placed her on his bed. She sank into the soft sheets,

Dreston’s bodyguards arrived later, heavily built men moving with firm steps. Right behind them were Garry and Ray. Tina came last, her face pale and her feet wobbling as if she might collapse at any second. Her eyes were fixed on Dreston, watching every move he made. Dreston didn’t look at any of them. His anger was locked only on Merrick. “How dare someone like you touch my wife that way?” Dreston growled. His voice was loud, sharp, and full of accusation. It cut through the quiet night. Everyone froze for a second, except Merrick, who clenched his jaw tightly. He was trying not to lose his patience. “As you can see,” Merrick said slowly, still holding Cassienne’s arm, “she can barely stand on her own, and—” “And whose fault is that?” Dreston snapped, cutting him off. His voice was filled with fury. “It’s your fault. You made all of them drunk.” Dreston’s eyes moved from Merrick to the backseat of the waiting SUV. Daisy and Aurora lay slumped inside, completely knocked out, s

The night grew darker, and the bright lights inside the club kept moving, but Dreston’s mood had changed completely. He was no longer the cheerful man who arrived with his friends. His face was stiff, his jaw tight, and his eyes were cold. Tina also felt different. She felt irritated, confused, and embarrassed. The whole reason they came to the club was to have fun—now gone. Dreston felt something he hadn’t felt in a long time. He felt little and powerless. He missed being in control of everything, especially when it came to Cassienne. He missed the woman who used to tremble just by seeing him. He missed the way she would look at him with fear and respect. He missed the effect his voice had on her, and how she would always react whenever he spoke. But tonight… she acted like he didn’t even exist. He finally understood what had changed her. The problem wasn’t her alone. It was her friends—those old friends she had been spending time with. Especially Merrick. That man irritated h

Cassienne forced a small smile as she looked at Tina. “Oh, hi, Tina,” she said softly. Tina crossed her arms and lifted her chin. “I’m sorry, but this is such a strange surprise. Seeing you here, in a place like this?” Her tone carried a soft laugh as she swung her silky, long hair back. “I don’t know you to be one of those people who socialise.” She said it on purpose. Tina always wanted to pick a fight with Cassienne, especially when she saw her sitting confidently. But tonight, Cassienne didn’t have the strength or the interest to argue. Her emotions were already too heavy, and she didn’t want Tina to pull her mood down. Instead of replying rudely, Cassienne simply smiled again, a slow and calm smile. She leaned her head gently on Merrick’s broad shoulder and said, “I am sure you have better things to do, Tina, because honestly… I don’t think anyone cares about your opinion of me.” The words stung Tina straight to her pride. Her eyes widened in disbelief. She wasn’t used to
When Love Finds Its Way Back Chapter Eleven: Her Determination.
Cassienne had cut her cake and fed each of her friends. Her smile was bright and real, different from the tired one she wore earlier. Being with her friends brought her energy back. It felt like she could breathe again. “How did you know I was here?” she finally asked, wiping cake crumbs from her fingers. Merrick chuckled softly. He set his dessert fork down and leaned back comfortably in his chair. “We figured you’d be here since you’re no longer in the Tremont mansion,” he said honestly. The cheerful mood faded immediately. Cassienne’s smile slowly disappeared, replaced by a sad and distant look. The memory of what had pushed her to leave that house hit her again like a cold wave. “I’m sorry you had to find out that way,” she whispered, looking down. Daisy’s eyes softened. “Are you okay?” she asked in a voice filled with concern. “Yes, I’m fine,” Cassienne replied, though her voice trembled a little. “I think we’re really done this time.” She swallowed and added, “Besides, I’
