Chapter 41- Where I Belong

Caelen POVHe pulled out the chair next to mine and sat down without hesitation or explanation, settling in as if he always sat at the marketing department table instead of with the executives.Jennifer's eyes widened slightly. "Mr. Fenmore. Do you not usually sit at the executive table?""Usually," Aldric agreed easily, already reaching for the wine bottle on the table and pouring himself a glass with casual comfort. "But my husband works in marketing. So tonight, I am sitting with marketing."Rachel hid her smile behind her wine glass, but I could see the amusement dancing in her eyes. The rest of the table exchanged glances, trying to figure out how to act now that the CEO had voluntarily joined them for dinner."That is very egalitarian of you," Jennifer said, and I genuinely could not tell if she meant it as a compliment or criticism."I thought so." Aldric's hand found mine under the table, squeezing gently before releasing. "Besides, the executive table is boring. They only tal

Chapter 43- Named Before the World

Caelen POVAt nine forty-five, I took the elevator to the thirtieth floor with my heart pounding hard enough that I could feel it everywhere.The executive level was organized chaos. Elaine was directing photographers and legal teams with her usual calm efficiency. Several board members stood near the windows speaking in hushed tones. Through the glass walls of the boardroom, I could see staff arranging chairs with precise spacing and testing microphones.And there, standing near the elevator bank as if he had been waiting specifically for me, was Mr. Tanaka.He was dressed in an impeccable navy suit, Mrs. Tanaka beside him in an elegant dress that probably cost more than my car. When he saw me, his entire face lit up with genuine warmth."Caelen-san!" He bowed immediately with practiced grace.I returned the bow, hoping desperately that I got the angle right. "Mr. Tanaka. Mrs. Tanaka. It is an honor to see you again.""The honor is ours," Mrs. Tanaka said with obvious sincerity. "We

Chapter 44- Seen for Who I Am

Caelen POVDinner was served in multiple elegant courses with wine pairings that probably cost more per glass than I used to make in a day. The atmosphere was celebratory and loose in a way I had never experienced at any work function before; people actually relaxed and enjoyed themselves instead of being professional.Halfway through the main course, Mr. Tanaka stood at the head table and tapped his wine glass gently for attention.The room fell silent with remarkable speed."Thank you all for celebrating with us tonight," he began with formal grace. "This partnership represents more than just business expansion. It represents the values that Fenmore Group embodies in everything they do.At our first dinner meeting, I met young Caelen Ryn." He gestured toward our table, and hundreds of eyes turned to look directly at me. "He is married to your CEO, yes. But that is not why he impressed me and my wife.He impressed me because he understood something many experienced business people do

Chapter 45 — Meeting the Fenmore Family

Aldric POVThe invitation arrived on a Wednesday afternoon, delivered by courier to my office instead of through normal mail. That alone told me exactly how my mother felt about the situation.I opened the heavy cream envelope with its embossed Fenmore crest and pulled out the card inside, already knowing what it would say.You are cordially invited to dinnerat Fenmore ManorSaturday, December 21st at 7:00 PMVictoria and Richard Fenmore request the pleasure of your company and that of your spouseBeneath the formal wording, my mother had added a single line in her precise handwriting.It is past time we met Caelen properly.I set the invitation down on my desk and stared at it for a long moment, feeling the familiar tension that always came with anything involving my family settling heavy in my shoulders.I had been avoiding this. For months, I had found excuses for why Caelen could not attend family dinners or holiday gatherings. Work obligations, his mother's recovery, scheduling c

Chapter 46 — I Choose You

Aldric POVThe dining room was formal and cold, the table set with china and crystal that had been in the family for generations. We were seated according to strict protocol—my parents at the heads of the table, Celeste and I flanking them, Caelen positioned between my father and aunt Margot.I hated the seating arrangement immediately because it meant I could not easily intervene if someone crossed a line.The first course arrived, and my mother began her interrogation with practiced subtlety."So Caelen, where did you attend university?" she asked pleasantly."Middlesex University," Caelen replied. "I studied marketing and business communications.""How practical." The word practical sounded like an insult coming from her. "And your family? What do they do?""My father passed away when I was fifteen. He worked in construction management. My mother worked multiple jobs to support us after he died.""How industrious of her." My mother took a delicate sip of wine. "And where did you gr

Chapter 47 — Permanently Marked Part 1

Caelen POVI was in the middle of explaining Q1 campaign projections when the warmth hit me. Not the usual heat from nerves or the stuffy room. Something deeper. It settled low in my stomach and scattered my thoughts.My hand gripped the edge of the table. Rachel's voice seemed far away when she asked if I was alright."I need a moment," I managed to say, and somehow made it to the bathroom before the second wave rolled through me, stronger this time. My knees buckled. I caught the sink and stared at my flushed face in the mirror, at my dilated pupils. My scent was already changing. I could smell it.Not here. Not at work again.But even through the panic, I noticed something different. Last time had been terrifying, my body demanding things I barely understood. This time felt like anticipation, like my biology recognized exactly what it needed and who could provide it.I had my phone out before I consciously decided to call him. Aldric answered on the first ring."Caelen?"Just heari

Chapter 48 — Permanently Marked Part 2

Caelen POVThe pain and pleasure blended until I couldn't tell them apart, couldn't think about anything except the feeling of him claiming me, marking me, making me his.When the initial intensity finally faded enough for rational thought to return, I became aware of several things at once. Aldric's knot was fully locked inside me, stretching me almost past bearing. His teeth were still embedded in my shoulder, the bite throbbing in time with my heartbeat. And I could feel his satisfaction radiating through the new bond forming between us, a connection that went deeper than physical.He released my shoulder, licking over the bite mark before pulling back to look at me."You okay?" he asked, his voice hoarse."More than okay." I reached up to touch the bite, feeling the imprint of his teeth in my skin. "You marked me.""I did." His expression was vulnerable in a way I'd rarely seen. "Are you upset?""No." The answer came without hesitation. "I wanted this. I asked for this. I'm yours

Chapter 49 — Permanently MarkedPart 3

Caelen POVHe made a sound that might have been a laugh or a sob and buried his face in my hair. "We'll talk about it when the heat's over. When you're certain it's not just biology making you think you want forever.""I'm already certain.""Humor me anyway. Let's survive the next two days first, then we'll discuss permanent arrangements."I wanted to argue, wanted to make him understand that I knew my own mind regardless of what my biology was doing. But exhaustion was pulling at me again, and his knot was starting to soften, so I just nodded and let myself drift.By the third day, we had found a rhythm that worked for both of us. Aldric could anticipate my heat waves before they fully hit, already preparing to take care of me before I even realized I needed it. And I had learned to recognize the signs of his rut intensifying, so I could adjust my responses to give him what he needed without being asked.We moved together like we'd been doing this for years instead of days, our bodie

Chapter 50 — The Mark

Caelen POVThe elevator doors opened onto the ninth floor, and I stepped out with my heart hammering against my ribs. Five days. We had been gone for five days, locked away in our bedroom while biology ran its course and changed everything between us.Now I was back, wearing a tailored navy suit that suddenly felt too tight around the collar, too constricting across my shoulders where Aldric's bite marks sat like brands beneath the fabric.The marketing floor went quiet the moment I appeared. Not the sudden silence of people caught mid-gossip, but something slower and more deliberate. Conversations trailed off. Heads turned. Eyes tracked my movement across the open space with focused attention that made my skin prickle.They could see it. Of course, they could see it. The marks were too high on my throat to hide completely, dark bruises that peeked above my collar no matter how carefully I had adjusted it that morning. And my scent had changed, mixed now with Aldric's in a way that de
