Chapter 31

Roman’s povHe rushed to me and grabbed my arm so I would not take another step a I sighed.“Please just wait.”I jerked my arm from his and looked at him. “You're worried about him. I'm worried about him too. We're just… doing it different ways.""I already said it’s fine." I eventually said. "But don't go thinking an apology makes up for it. You need to start thinking before you get us in front of those bloody things again."He nodded quickly, and came to pace beside me as I pushed at the weight of the doors. The cool air in the mansion was a welcoming shock to my body from the heat of the sun outside, but it was too calm. My shoes made a loud clicking sound on the marble floors as I frowned about that. “Where is everyone?” The maids, butler, staff, there was usually always someone.Adam shrugged, but before he could answer, movement caught my eye. Callum.He walked across the hall in nothing but a loose robe, towel slung lazily over his shoulder.Water dripped from his hair, it w

Chapter 32

Roman’s povCallum smirked, clearly pleased with himself before strolling towards the bench press as if he owned it. Reaching down, he picked the bar up, rapped it once and looked back at me.“How much you want me to put on?”I gave a little shrug. “Two-forty on a normal day,” I answered. “More if I’m pushing it.”He raised his eyebrows at that, clearly impressed but not not admitting it. “Yeah, okay, definitely more than me.”I smiled. “A lot more?”“You think me weak?” He said as I scoffed.“No offense princess but… I think I’ve got the defense line covered seeing as I was in the army.”“Alright, spar with me.”I blinked. “What?”“You heard me,” he laughed. “You scared?”“Terrified of beating you up. That’s what this is.”His jaw clenched. “I didn’t say beat me up. I said spar.”“No,” I replied, flatly.“Why the fuck not?”“I’m here to protect you not break your bones.”“That’s pussy talk and you know it.”“Yes. It is. Let’s leave it at that.”Before I could let down my guard, he sw

Chapter 33

Callum’s povShe was standing there as if she owned the place, her arms pulled so tightly across her chest that I expected her to snap her own ribs, and her jaw set and eyes sharp, the kind of sharp that wasn’t just angry, no. it was cutting.“You’ve crossed a line,” she hissed. “Married. You’re marrying him? Callum… are you listening to yourself?”I leant against the back of the couch and blew out through my nostrils. I didn’t want to argue with her. Not now. Not ever. But she wasn’t going to let it drop. She never did.“That man,” I said, “is my partner.”“Partner?” She scoffed, loud and bitter, throwing her hands in the air. “Cut the crap. You can’t just make up shit like this. This isn’t some fairytale man. This is not real.”“And what’s that? What do you think I’m doing with him!”“It’s another one of your stunts. Another performance. You’re humiliating yourself, Callum, and dragging the family down with you.”Her words hit harder than I wanted to admit. I’d grown up with this, f

Chapter 34

Callum’s povThat night while we slept I stared at the wall. I could hear his breathing while he slept on the foldable bed and noticed how different we both were.I’m a billionaire. He’s a bodyguard. That’s the whole story, right there. Or it should be. My world is boardrooms, stock prices, and private jets. His is… well, from what I’ve gathered, it’s about discipline, and orders, and knowing how to kill a man with his bare hands. Our lives couldn’t be more different if they tried.And yet here we were. Married. Sure it was fake but hey, it was all we had.In the silence of the room, the word married seemed clunky and larger than life. A contract, a transaction. To stop thinking. I squeezed my eyes shut trying to force my brain to switch off; to count sheep or stock dividends or anything other than stupid world that wanted me dead.It didn’t take long before it worked ansi passed out on the bed.***The banging I got that morning wasn’t a tap. It was a hammer, sharp and hard hitting

Chapter 35

Callum’s povI couldn’t think. I just stood there, between them, Adam, my best friend and ally in all things, and Roman, the man sleeping in my bed who had become . . . what? My protector? My confidant? “Adam,” Roman said, his voice dropping in volume, but not in intensity. “I need you to go. I have to speak with Callum alone.”Adam’s eyebrows rose. He flicked his gaze to me, a brief question I couldn’t answer, and jerked his head once. “Make it fast. We’ve got shit to do.”He walked out and closed the door with a quiet slam that rang through the room in the breaking silence.And then there was silence. Just me, in my pyjama pants, feeling kind of awkward. And him, sitting on my bed in his underwear like some kind of soldier.He didn’t speak at once. He merely reached up and rubbed a hand over his close-shaven head.“Callum…” he said in a calm way. “Just what is it we think we’re doing?”I opened my mouth to tell him something but the words didn’t want to come, and I looked at the wi

Chapter 36

Roman’s povI just needed him off my back. Anything he was thinking of doing I wanted him to stop and leave me alone. This shopping trip… I couldn’t wait for it to be all over so I would get back to my life.“You’re not fine. You look like a wall. You realize people are going to see you, they’re going to want pictures. ‘Callum West’s reclusive husband!’ That’ll sell papers. So you have to…” He trailed off and waved his hand in the air vaguely. “Smile. Look like you don’t totally hate him.”I sighed, the air rushing from my lungs in a tired whoosh. “I’ll try to smile,” I mumbled. It sounded as unconvincing as I felt.He didn’t care if I was convincing or not. He seemed to like my words as he nodded.It didn’t take long before we got to the mall as the driver notified us and Adam looked at me with a smile and a nod. Oh this was going to be a long day I thought.Callum didn’t look like he cared. From what I was seeing he just wanted to get rid of me so he would go back to his phone or hi

Chapter 37

Roman’s povI took the jacket. The leather was soft, like nothing I’d ever felt before. In that instant, I could feel all of their eyes on me, the salesman’s, Adam’s, and everybody else in the store who had all turned to look, I think I felt Callum’s most of all.This wasn’t protection clothing. This was performance art clothing. I sighed as I decided to do what they wanted from me.I just followed them. Where else was I gonna go? I was the stupid one who signed the contract, after all. I didn’t complain. I held up jackets, put on pants that felt like wearing air, and stood on a little pedestal while a tailor fussed around my legs with pins in his mouth.The whole time, though, my eyes were on the doors. The hair on my neck was up. Something didn’t feel right. The crowd outside the glass doors was moving, as the store was getting a bit too full for a Tuesday afternoon.I tried to say how uncomfortable I felt but could get only half of what I meant to out. “Callum,” I said. “It’s gett

Chapter 38

Roman’s povAdam’s face had drained of all colour like he was sick and Callum’s face had gone a deep, angry-red colour. He looked pissed with his fused hands by his side. “What. The fuck. Was that?”I blinked at him stupidly for a moment before answering. “He was going for you. I told you the place felt wrong. Did my job.”“Your job?” Callum’s voice rose, cracking on the words. “Your job was to stand there and look pretty! Your job was to not cause a scene! Your job was not to body-slam some random junkie through a display of two-hundred-dollar ties!”“He wasn’t a random junkie, he was a threat until proven otherwise,” I shot back, my own temper starting to fray. “My job is to assess and react. I assessed. I reacted.”Adam looked at the people staring at us as he told the salesman to push people out of the store. The salesman nodded and went ahead to shove people out as Adam looked at us.“The press is probably already filming this out there! ‘Billionaire’s New Husband is a Violent M

Chapter 39

Callums povThe words seemed to strangle me with treachery,“The illusion is there to protect the reality, Callum,” Adam said softly. “The reality is that you need a guy who will knock a potential threat on his ass without a second thought. The illusion is that he’s your loving husband so he can be close enough to do it. He is doing a great job being both from my angle.I ran a hand through my hair. It was a mess. I was a mess. “I know. I know that. Logically, I know that. It’s just… hard. He’s so… intense. And I just… I snapped.”“Yeah, you did," Adam agreed, not in a kind way. “So maybe cut the guy a little slack. Let him do his thing. The thing you’re paying him an ungodly amount of money to do.”I sighed and looked around. “So you expect me to let him run around taking down every threat in his way?”“I didn’t say that,” he sighed. “I’m saying… trust his instinct. Just a little. His instinct just now was to protect you.”I stayed there for a while before signing as I turned to the

Chapter 40

Callums povAdam who had been overheating the conversation chimed in. “Hey, Roman. Yeah, he’d love to. He’s on his way.” He hit ‘end’ then tossed the phone back to me with a smile I wanted to punch right off his face.“What are you doing?” I hissed.“I’m taking your things home,” he said, like that was the most obvious plan in the world. He wrenched open the limo door and climbed inside.“How am I supposed to get home?” I cried. “You can’t just leave me here you know.”He waved a hand at Roman through the glass. “He’ll take you home. It’s what you guys do! Remember? Story line! Fun times, lovebirds!” Then he closed the door and the window dropped an inch. “And try not to kill each other! Literally!”I stood there as the driver shrugged at me before getting in and the limo pulled away. I stood at the curb in rage as I looked across the street to see him still sitting and watching me in surprise.I stood there for a full minute, fuming, debating whether to just call an Uber and leave hi
