THE NEXT DAYThe hum of fluorescent lights buzzed quietly in the background as Lena stepped into her company, coffee in hand. The world outside was just waking up, but she had barely slept. Her eyes burned, her body ached, but her resolve was unwavering.Arianna was already at her desk, hair pulled into a messy bun, typing furiously on her keyboard. She looked up when Lena walked by.“You’re early,” Arianna said, rubbing her tired eyes.Lena gave a small smile. “I could say the same about you.”“I wanted to check the logs again before the team came in,” Arianna explained, stretching her arms. “Kevin thinks he found something.”Lena’s pulse quickened. “What is it?”Arianna grabbed her tablet and followed Lena into her office, shutting the door behind her. She placed the device on Lena’s desk and swiped through several screens before stopping on a page full of time-stamped entries.“There was a remote access login the night before Titan Dynamics made their announcement,” Arianna said, t

The next morning, sunlight streamed through Lena’s curtains, casting a warm glow across the room. The soft chirping of birds filled the air, blending with the gentle rustle of leaves outside her window. She blinked awake, her body heavy with sleep, but the steady rise and fall of Grayson’s chest beneath her cheek made her heart swell.He was still there.Grayson’s arm was draped over her, holding her close. His breathing was slow and even, his face relaxed in sleep. Lena smiled, brushing a strand of hair from his forehead. He rarely looked this peaceful, always caught up in work, carrying the weight of responsibilities.She decided not to wake him.Slipping out of bed quietly, Lena padded to the kitchen, her feet cool against the hardwood floor. She tied her hair up in a messy bun and started brewing coffee, the rich aroma filling the room. She opened the fridge, pulling out eggs and vegetables to make breakfast.The sizzle of the pan was the only sound until soft footsteps echoed dow

The night passed peacefully, the weight of the day slowly fading as Lena drifted in and out of sleep. The steady rise and fall of Grayson’s chest beneath her cheek grounded her, a silent reminder that she wasn’t alone in all of this.By the time morning light filtered through the curtains, painting soft streaks of gold across the room, Lena felt like she could breathe again.She stirred first, blinking against the sunlight. Grayson’s arm was still draped over her, his face relaxed, peaceful in sleep. She smiled to herself, brushing her fingers gently along his jaw.“Are you watching me sleep?” he mumbled without opening his eyes.Lena laughed softly. “Maybe.”Grayson cracked one eye open, a lazy grin spreading across his face. “That’s a little creepy, Lena.”She rolled her eyes, sitting up. “Fine. I take it back.”He tugged her back down, pulling her against him. “Too late.”Lena giggled, resting her head on his shoulder. For a while, they just lay there, wrapped in the quiet comfort

Grayson held the steering wheel tight as he drove to Lena's house, his mind was still stucked on the conversation with his father, words echoing in his head like a bad song on repeat."The Sinclairs. Marriage. A business deal pretending to be something more."He let out a slow breath, his jaw tight. His father hadn’t even let him explain, shutting him down every time he tried to speak. It didn’t matter that he wasn’t single. It didn’t matter that he was finally getting closer to Lena again.Grayson tapped his fingers against the wheel, the soft rhythm doing nothing to ease the knot in his chest. He glanced at the dashboard clock, it was late, but he didn’t care. He just needed to see Lena, to remind himself why he couldn’t let his father decide his future like this.Streetlights flickered on as he turned onto Lena’s street, the familiar houses lining the block. He slowed down, the hum of the engine quieting as he pulled up in front of her place.For a moment, he stayed in the car, res

The next morning, Lena woke up feeling refreshed. Sunlight streamed through her curtains, She stretched, smiling to herself as she thought about the peaceful day she and Grayson had spent together. It was something wonderful and she dreamed about spending more days with him like that.By the time she got to the office, she was buzzing with energy. Arianna, greeted her with a coffee.“Morning!” Arianna chirped. “You’re glowing. Did something good happen?”Lena chuckled, taking the cup. “Just had a relaxing weekend. Feels nice to start the week fresh.”Arianna grinned. “Whatever you did, it worked. You look happy.”“I am,” Lena admitted, feeling the truth of it settle in her chest. She had worries, sure, but she also had Grayson. And that was enough to keep her moving forward.Lena settled into her chair, flipping open her laptop as she sipped her coffee. Her inbox was full, but instead of feeling overwhelmed, she felt ready to tackle whatever came her way.Arianna peeked her head into
