And for the coming weeks, I always looked forward to our dinner dates, every night because we always had fun moments together. Thankfully, we didn't have to come face to face with reporters or random strangers because Sorin always made sure to book a private dinner room for us, knowing how uncomfortable and nervous I sometimes get with many unknown people around me.We would have little talks, deep conversations, be vulnerable with each other, also adding little jokes here and there till we lost track of time.We were basically trying to make up for the time we spent physically and emotionally apart from each other.One time, Sorin took me to one of his vacation homes across the city; a gigantic mansion.We pulled up to the mansion, and Sorin led me inside. The dining room was set for dinner, with crystal glasses and fine china on the table. Prior to our arrival, the chefs had cooked a delicious meal, exactly my request, and as we walked in, the aroma of the delicacy filled the air.

I hurriedly tried to get up, but he quickly caught me before I could step away, his hands wrapping gently around my waist. “Sorry? Why apologize for kissing your husband?" He asked, his voice was warm, and reassuring.“Trust me, this is all I've ever wanted,” He continued, his eyes locked on mine. "For us to be free with each other, without hesitation.”“For you to finally acknowledge me as your husband, and be free to do whatever you like with me whenever you feel like. You know what I mean.” He winked, and a shy smile spread across my face.“Come here…” He murmured, his voice low and inviting. As he pulled me closer, I felt my pulse quicken. Our lips met again, and this time, I didn't run. Instead, I let go of my doubts, surrendering to the moment. I felt seen, wanted, and loved.As we kissed, the world around us melted away, leaving only the gentle hum of intimacy. His hands slid up my back, drawing me closer, and I felt a rush of warmth spread through me. Every touch seemed to i

“I don't understand. Tell you what?” I asked further.“Why didn't you tell me that last night was your first time?” He asked, and I immediately became shy.I tried to avoid the conversation, but his grip on my waist tightened, making it difficult to escape.Unable to keep my gaze on him, I looked away again. “I didn't want you to run away.” I managed to say, inaudibly.“What!” He frowned. “What does that even mean? I'm your husband. Why will I run away?”I shrugged. “I don't know, I just thought it might have scared you away. I'm sorry.”He sighed. “Look at me.” He gently pulled my face towards his and once again, our eyes met. “You don't have to apologize. If you had told me, trust me, I wouldn't have run away. I wouldn't be scared either. Instead I would have treated you more gently than I did.” He said, calmly.“But you were gentle.” I quickly cut in. “You made it so pleasurable. I didn't even have to—” I soon realized I was saying too much, and quickly kept quiet, covering my en

“No, it can't be. I don't think it's possible. She can't possibly do something like this. For what reason exactly?” Sorin said, shaking his head, refusing to believe that Daisy was capable of sabotaging him.“I don't know why you're still having second thoughts about this.” Kelvin said, his voice rising in frustration. “Don't tell me you still underestimate Daisy’s capacity.” He shot Sorin a glare.“It is totally obvious that it's her handiwork. Tell me, is there anyone else who is powerful enough to have connections with those investors?” He asked an intentionally obvious question.Sorin hesitated, “I understand. I just don't want us to be quick to come to the wrong conclusion. We need to get our facts right.”Sorin picked his phone, and began to scroll through.“What are you doing?” Kelvin quickly asked him.“What else will I be doing?” He asked, irritated by Kelvin’s question. “I'm trying to call Daisy, of course.”“And you think that will do what? You think you'll just call her an

HOURS LATER As the effect of the sedative wore off, I slowly regained consciousness, my mind foggy and a bit disoriented. “The boss will be so proud of us.” I heard a voice from far across the room.“Do you think this is a good idea? What if we all get caught?” Another voice asked, hinting to me that there were other people in there with me. “I don't want to go back to jail.”“Shut up! Are you a fool?” The voice of the first person tried to shut him up. “Do you think the boss would be stupid enough to let us get caught just like that?” He asked, his tone unwelcoming.His partner hesitated. “I don't know. In fact I don't know anything. I'm just scared. If I had known she was the one you were bringing here, I wouldn't have agreed to this deal.”“You speak like a dummy. You're either in this or you're out. If you are too scared, you better back out right now before it's too late.” The first guy sneered, his voice cold, and unfriendly.Groggily, I tried to open my eyes, but everything
