บททั้งหมดของ His to Punish, Hers to Revenge : บทที่ 1 - บทที่ 10

Desi’s head throbbed as she slowly opened her eyes. Her body felt heavy, and for a moment, everything was a blur. The room was dimly lit, and nothing looked familiar. The air was heavy with the scent of stale cigarette smoke and dampness, and the walls were adorned with peeling wallpaper.She blinked a few times, trying to focus. Panic rushed through her as she remembered what happened. The men, the cloth over her mouth, and then—nothing."Where am I?" she whispered, her voice weak, echoing in the eerie silence.A deep voice answered from across the room. "You're awake."Desi’s eyes snapped toward the sound. A man stood in the corner, leaning against the wall. He was tall, broad-shouldered, and his presence filled the room. He wore a black suit, and his expression was unreadable. The dim light cast eerie shadows on his face, giving him a menacing appearance."Who are you?" Desi asked, trying to push herself up. Her arms shook with the effort."Don’t bother trying to leave," the man sa

Desi hurried into the softly lit medical wing, her footsteps echoing in the quiet hallway. Her heart pounded with worry as she approached the room at the end of the corridor. Lily lay in the hospital bed, her fragile form barely visible beneath the pristine white sheets. Machines hummed softly, monitoring her every breath. Lucas, standing by the door with his arms crossed, fixed his gaze on Desi as she entered the room."Lily?" Desi's voice was gentle as she neared the bed, her eyes filled with concern.Lily slowly opened her eyes and looked up at Desi, her voice barely above a whisper. "Are you the doctor?""Yes, I'm Dr. Desi," Desi replied, offering a reassuring smile. "I'm here to help you feel better."Lily nodded weakly, unable to muster more than a faint response. Desi felt the weight of Lucas's watchful eyes and turned back to Lily, taking her hand in an attempt to provide comfort. "I'm going to perform a quick checkup, alright? It won't hurt."Lily nodded again, her grip on D

She found Lucas in his study, pacing. She took a deep breath and knocked on the door. He looked up, his expression cold, staring at her."What is it?" Lucas asked, his voice sharp."I need to talk to you about Lily," Desi said, stepping inside.Lucas stopped what he was doing on his laptop, giving her his attention. "Is something wrong with her?""No, she’s stable," Desi answered, trying to keep her tone calm. "But I think we need to do more for her than just treat her in here."Lucas raised an eyebrow. "What do you mean?"Desi straightened. "She told me she misses being outside. I think it would really help her if she could get some fresh air, see the sun. She needs to feel like a kid, not a patient."Lucas’s jaw clenched. "No. It’s too dangerous.""I understand your concern," Desi continued, standing her ground. "But staying locked up in this house isn’t helping her recover. It’s affecting her emotionally. We could take her to a park. Somewhere safe, with guards if needed."Lucas sh

Desi stood by Lily’s bedside, adjusting the IV and checking the machines. The steady beeping was the only sound in the room, but her mind was racing. Lily’s condition hadn’t improved in days. Despite everything Desi tried, the little girl was still weak.She felt a familiar tension settle in her chest as she looked down at Lily, her heart sinking. Desi stroked Lily’s hair, her touch gentle. "We’re going to figure this out, sweetheart," she whispered, more to herself than to the sleeping girl.The door swung open suddenly, slamming against the wall. Desi flinched, her hand freezing mid-air. Lucas stormed in, his eyes sharp and cold, his jaw tight with anger."What the hell is going on?" Lucas growled, his voice low and dangerous. He stopped at the foot of Lily’s bed, his hands clenched into fists. "Why isn’t she getting better?"Desi stood up straight, her heart pounding. She could feel the heat of his fury before he even spoke. "We’re doing everything we can, Lucas. These things take

Desi walked into Lily’s room early in the morning, her eyes heavy with exhaustion. She hadn’t slept much, the weight of the situation pressing on her chest. Lily was still sleeping, her tiny form barely moving under the covers.She heard footsteps behind her and turned to see Lucas standing in the doorway, his face as hard as always. He didn’t say anything, just stood there, watching his daughter."She slept through the night," Desi said, her voice quiet. "That’s a good sign."Lucas crossed his arms, his eyes never leaving Lily. "Is it?" His tone was sharp, but there was something else beneath it. Something softer. "She doesn’t look better."Desi sighed and walked over to the monitors, checking the readings. "Her vitals are stable for now. That’s all we can hope for at this point. But it’s going to take time, Lucas."He let out a bitter laugh. "Time. That’s all you ever say. Time."Desi turned to face him, her eyes narrowing. "And it’s the truth. If you think I’m not doing everything
