YVONNE’S P O V“A healing spa?” I asked, cautiously.Mr Voss undid his seatbelt as the driver parked in front of the spa. I undid mine as well, not quite believing this was where he meant us to beWe both stepped out of the carMy brow pinched, the late morning sun warm on my skin. ”Is this where we're meant to be, sir?”My eyes darted to the wooden sign that read the place's name. Terme d’Argento – Home of Exclusive Holistic Retreat.Mr Voss came over to my side, I could feel his eyes on me, looking at me the same way he was doing at the gazebo.My throat dried up. The way he looked at me sometimes...I know I shouldn't feel this way; he probably doesn't even see me past a timid employee, but still, I couldn't help the way my toes curled or the way my breathing stalled whenever he glanced my way.That moment at the gazebo was the best and worst, because for one moment, I had thought the look in his eyes was admiration, or maybe even more—Desire?But during our drive here, I just reali

Chapter 12

YVONNE’S P.O.VMy body was something I had long stopped caring for.What was the use, anyway? When my father always made me feel worthless, when Edgar would always talk down to me, and point out my flaws‘I wish I had a son’‘A boy would have been more useful to me’‘Are all girl children always this dumb, or is it just you Yvonne?’‘For once in your life, you can finally be useful to me. Marry Edgar and prove your worth’ •‘Your teeth aren't white enough. Go to a dentist’‘Your hips are too broad. Fix it’‘Your right breast is bigger than your left, you should do a surgery’‘You are never wet for me and you don't moan properly, don't complain if I sleep with someone else’Those words from my father and Edgar used to ring in my head like a broken record without a pause button, but since Italy...since him, their voice quietened.The girl her father had looked down on and the woman her husband had looked down on were different from who was standing in front of this

Chapter 13

CLAYTON'S P. O. VI couldn't sleep.Not even a damm wink.My throat felt dry again. I lay in the dark, the soft night breeze rustling the trees outside. A sliver of moonlight crept in from the window, illuminating the otherwise dark roomI turned again, willing my mind to rest, but it wouldn't listen. The sheets were tangled at my feet from how much I had tossed and turned, and I brought a hand over my face like it could shut out the images I've in my head since noon.But they kept coming. Each one more visceral than the last. When I closed my eyes, it felt like she was here with me, lying besides me, with her hair splayed over the pillow as I buried my finger in the inky strands, while she slept and murmured quietly after I would have loved and worshiped every inch of her beautiful body.I groaned and sat upright, then I stretched over to pick up my phone from the nightstand. It was a few minutes past midnight.When I close my eyes, I see her standing in front of that mirror, her ski

Chapter 14

YVONNE'S P. O. VMr Voss seemed different, uptight today, more closed off.He hadn't smiled once or thrown a casual compliment my way. This morning, I made an attempt to start a conversation, but his phone rang and I lost the little courage I had summonedI fumbled with my purse as we entered the sleek black car waiting outside the villa. Today we were meeting with some jewelry designers who wanted to merge their brand under the SilverThorn group to gain more sales and reputation.Mr Voss ended his call, a frown formed between his perfectly arched brows as he read a text message. I tried peeping to see what had him so unsettled, but I couldn't make out the tiny words on his screen.Today, a quiet tension clung to Mr Voss like a shadow, It shouldn't have bothered me this much, but it did. I tried thinking of what to say to lighten his dull mood today, but no idea came to my head. So I just leaned back as the driver drove us to the meeting destination“Bloody hell,” Mr Voss cursed unde

Chapter 15

YVONNE’S P.O.VFor me, Happiness was a thing that didn't last.I knew, deep within me I knew that this moment in Tuscany would come to an end. That we would return to Seattle, Mr Voss would go to his world, and I'd go back to mine. Still, every day since we arrived, that fluttering in my chest for my Boss grew stronger and stronger.I felt it the first time I crashed into his body that night, when he held me and let me cry in his arms. And even though he was a stranger, I had never felt so safe with someone as I did then.Then, after stepping up for me when Edgar tried to humiliate me, that small spark of attraction blazed into something else. I tried to keep it under check, I tried not to let this forbidden feeling consume me, but every day I spend with Mr Voss, tucked here in the quiet and beauty of Italy, this feeling grows.It burns.And it shouldn't. My attraction to my Boss is despicable and shameful. I'm sure that if Mr Voss knew how much I daydreamed of him, he would keep his

Chapter 16

CLAYTON'S P.OVThe emergency wasn’t business. It was a person.Aunt Stephanie had been on my last bloody nerve long before Italy, but lately she’d gotten worse, turned into a thorn underneath my skin. If not for her, I wouldn’t have cut our trip short.Not that I feared her. Stephanie was nothing but a disturbing noise, all bark with no bite.But things are different. Now I have Yvonne to protect. And dangerous or not, I wasn't putting her in Aunt Stephanie's line of sight.Last week, while we were still in Tuscany, my private investigator informed me she was digging into my location. I knew her too well, she's cunning and greedy, always wanting more than she has. Her position on the broad isn't enough to satisfy her lust for power. Aunt Stephanie has had her eyes on the CEO's position for a very, very long time. Staying in Italy longer was a risk. If Stephanie found out, she would capitalize on the trip, maybe tipped off tabloids with stories of scandal and a few photographs. I di

Chapter 17

YVONNE'S P.O.VThere's something wrong with Edgar Okay, there's always, and I mean always something wrong with Edgar. During our five years of marriage, he's been paranoid, angry, tired, or something.It was always something with him, so much so that I was used to his mood swings, how he would change from hot to cold faster than a broken faucet. The way he could be happy watching a soccer match one minute and the next is throwing a fit if his pasta isn't spicy enough.That was life with Edgar, I was always on my toes, walking on eggshells, and I couldn't do anything about it because every time I tried, he would threaten to expose my father's secrets and ruin my family.There were days when I considered leaving regardless of his threats, but then I considered many things. Like how I already endured him for years, so what was the need to walk away? And even if I did, my reputation would be soiledSo I stayed.But never did I imagine that he'd be the one to walk away. His divorce messag

Chapter 18

YVONNE'S P.O.VI stared at the pregnancy test kit like it could come to life and bite me.Apprehension made my stomach churn. Yesterday, after suspecting pregnancy, I stopped by the supermarket and bought the kit I'm currently having a staring contest with.“Just do it” I muttered, trying to encourage myself, summoning up a courage I didn't feel.After another wasted minute of contemplation, I let out a loud groan and closed the box, then I beelined towards the living room where I had left my bag.I had a few minutes left to arrive at work on time, so that meant I'd be skipping breakfast—not my biggest problem, considering that I've lost my appetite since yesterday.My blazer and skirt felt chaffing against my skin, and I smothered the deep blue skirt with tense hands.“It's a new day Yvonne. Put all your worries aside and focus on the day. Usually, when I talk to myself, it lightens my mood, but recently, that hasn't been helping.I knew I should just brace up and take the damming pr

Chapter 19

YVONNE'S P.O.VHe gave me no option.Not like Mr Voss commanded me to be his date for tonight, it's just that when he asks things like that, it's hard to say no. I'm pretty sure I'd jump into a well if he so much as requests it.So at nine p.m., instead of taking the damning pregnancy test still waiting on the sink, I was standing in front of my mirror, applying makeup with shaking hands, preparing to be my boss’s date at his family event.My stomach tightened with that sensation I was trying hard to forget about. I could have told Mr Voss to take Lucinda or Daisy tonight, that I was a married woman and such shouldn't be going out with another man.But I didn’t.Because there’s a selfish part of me, buried deep, that still yearns for his affection. A part of me that wants to feel seen, wanted, cherished, even if it’s wrong. Especially because it’s wrong.Sinful and shameful, I know.But no matter how wrong I screamed this was, a certain giddiness I hadn't felt in ages flooded my stoma

Chapter 20

YVONNE’S P.O.VEvery ounce of bravery I had sizzled into the air and faded away. My heart lurched forward and the wine in my stomach tumbled.No.My entire body trembled, and I cast a quick glance around me. Everyone's attention was on the couple now kissing, and Mr Voss and I were at the back of the ballroom, but how long would the distraction last? How long till someone notices I was bleeding on myself and even if by some miracle they didn't, I'd still have to walk out the doors Shame made my face hot as I remembered who was by my side.Mr Voss.I raised my eyes to look at him, and instead of the disapproval or irritation I expected, there was a tenderness in his face. A softness and understanding I didn't deserve.How would a twenty-six-year-old woman like me not keep track of her period? Not only did I utterly disgrace myself today, but also Mr Voss. I could never look him in the eye again. Tears welled up in my eyes and I hated that too. I hated the fact that I wasn't just an
