"Miss, wake up!" Evander gently stroked Elena's cheek.The girl groaned, disturbed, murmuring softly as she turned over, changing her sleeping position.Evander suppressed a smile, finding her adorable.He felt a slight awkwardness seeing Elena's smooth back, uncovered by the blanket. He desperately wanted to reach out, to touch that silken skin with his fingertips, to make the girl sigh again in his embrace.Evander blinked, then shook his head, clearing away the heated scenes swirling in his mind."Why?"Evander jumped in surprise at Elena's voice. He opened his eyes and saw her looking at him, a faint smile playing on her lips. Her waking face was captivating, without a trace of makeup."Oh, it's nothing!" Evander hedged, starting to get up, but Elena pulled his hand, making him fall back onto the bed."Wait a moment," Elena whined, resting her head on Evander's thigh. Her hand stroked his leg, while she herself tried to hold back a smile.Evander understood, Elena was deliberately

Julian awoke as the sun was already halfway up, groaning and clutching his throbbing head. The lingering dizziness made him close his eyes again. When he tried to move, he felt restrained. He pushed aside the blanket and saw a hand wrapped around his stomach, realizing he wasn't wearing a single thread. Julian turned to look behind him and saw Elena's face, deeply asleep, embracing him.His brow furrowed deeply, trying to recall what happened last night. All he remembered was the bachelor party and drinking too much champagne at his friends' insistence, which got him drunk. Even staggering in the elevator, someone had helped him. After that, he remembered nothing."Was I really that drunk?!" he muttered, a hint of regret that his wedding night had passed without him being fully aware.But now he saw Elena embracing him, sleeping without a stitch of clothing. He was curious about something, so he slowly, carefully removed Elena's hand, making sure not to wake the woman who had official

The incident at the hotel became headline news everywhere, as the victim was Elena Montgomery, a boutique owner who had just married Julian Thorne, the CEO of a large company, the day before. Their wedding was even still being replayed on several television shows. It was reported that two people, disguised, had threatened Mrs. Julian Thorne and robbed her of her diamond jewelry. Both individuals met a tragic end in a police shootout for threatening with a firearm.Elena stared furiously at the television screen. The events were not as reported. Evander's name was not mentioned as her savior."Why are you so upset?" Julian asked that morning. They had returned from the hotel, and Julian had brought Elena to his house.Elena glanced at her husband briefly. "It's nothing," she answered curtly, sipping her tea.Julian snorted. He understood why Elena seemed annoyed watching the news. "Sometimes, a hero must remain silent and hidden, darling!" he said. "Your bodyguard doesn't seem to like

Evander reported everything that had happened during his duty to his superior, and also to Julian. The man immediately drove to the villa, arriving close to midnight.At that time, Elena was unwilling to sleep and just sat curled up on the sofa, with Evander keeping watch over her."How is she? Is she hurt?" Julian asked as soon as he entered the villa."Miss is fine, just still shaken and frightened," Evander replied.Julian was silent, his gaze drifting to the sofa where Elena was lying. He walked over and knelt beside the chair, his hand gently stroking Elena's head."Sweetheart, are you hurt?" he asked.Elena only shook her head in response. She had been thinking about the terrifying incidents. She hadn't even been Julian's wife for a full week."Is there anything you want to explain?" Elena asked, looking at Julian.Julian frowned, not understanding.Elena sighed. "In just a few days, I've faced two death threats, and in those two days, I've seen three deaths right before my eyes

On a private jet, Julian took Elena to their destination city, where the opening party for a new branch of his company was to be held. Evander, of course, was also included.Elena sat with Julian, but her gaze could drift to Evander, who was seated behind them."Have you chosen a dress, darling?" Julian asked.Elena briefly lowered her eyes, breaking her gaze with Evander. She then turned to face Julian."I have," Elena replied, locking her eyes with his.Julian frowned suspiciously and turned his head to look behind him. But the seat there was empty.Evander was no longer there.Julian refocused on Elena. "Do you think your bodyguard needs a new suit as well?" he remarked with a smirk, gently swirling the wine in his glass.Elena scoffed. "Isn't the impending jet lag intoxicating enough for you, that you're already drinking wine?" she retorted, ignoring his question.This enraged Julian, who felt ignored. In a single motion, the man lunged forward, grabbing Elena's face and clamping
