Smiling at Julie as I walk around the desk, I greet her. "Hey Jules, you look nice," I say taking in her apperance as we walk toward the exit. She has on a long sleeve pull over burgandy shirt, a pair of tight light blue skinny jeans and a pair of black flip-flops with her hair pulled up into a high ponytail and light makeup. "Thanks B, are we stopping at your place so you can change or are you wearing what you have on?"

I wanted to say something but I couldn’t get any words out. “Mom, she needs to eat. She hasn’t eaten since I found her. the only thing in her stomach is the vitamins that Helen has been injecting in her.” Hillan once again came to my rescue. I bowed in greeting as Hillan pulled me with him. we paused Julia who was seated in front of her laptop and typing away. I wonder what kind of job she does. “She is a writer. She writes the steamiest romance books,”

She was already thinking about what she wanted to do Julian came down from the library. He was wearing a gray sweater. He picked up a book review magazine that had just arrived. He started reading it and a big smile spread across his face. "The people who review books are saying that our book is really good, " Julian said. He put the magazine down next to Elena's laptop. He walked over to her. Put his hands on her waist. He looked at the outline that was pinned to the board. "They like that our book does not rush through the story.

"Within a few minutes, you will have the answer, na. Come down here as soon as you have finished getting ready.” I told her that I would wait for her in the living room downstairs, and then I left the bedroom to give her more space to get ready.

Something shifted in Julian's expression, something soft and unguarded that disappeared almost as quickly as it appeared. "I'm glad I could help," he said simply. My phone buzzed on the coffee table and I reached for it, seeing a text from Nina. Nina: Marie just called. She's thrilled with your fabric selections. Said you have excellent taste and a clear vision. I'm even more excited about this project now! I showed the text to Julian, unable to keep the smile off my face. "She said I have excellent taste," I said, feeling ridiculously proud. "You do," Julian confirmed. "Marie's worked with hundreds of designers. She knows what she's talking about."

Still, this ache seemed to settle. She took another photo, one that clearly depicted the woman Adrian had cheated with. Julia Hall. Twenty-six years old. A junior associate at Beckett Holdings. Young, fresh, with a soft smile but sharp mind. Julia had wide brown eyes and a laugh Sophie had heard once at a company dinner, bright and unguarded, the kind of laugh that made strangers turn their heads.

They were partially open, revealing the warm, flickering orange light of a fire. I pushed the door open and stepped into Julian’s library. Julian was sitting in a deep leather armchair near the fire. He was wearing a simple, dark tailored shirt with the sleeves rolled up to his forearms, completely relaxed. He was holding a thick book in one hand and a glass of dark red wine in the other.

Jackson says. “What did this rogue want with you Jackson?” Julia asks softly. She is always calm, no matter how angry she is. She is a calming influence on Jackson and his wolf. He contemplates what he can say, but to lie now would only cause further damage between us. He summarizes the story, his truth as he recalled it for me. He can’t look in my eyes any longer as he sees disbelief and disgust covering my face.

Max POV. It's been 3 weeks since I last heard from Josephine, my love. I have tried calling her line but I keep getting this stupid message. 'The number you are trying to call doesn't exist.'
