Excerpt:
She had forgotten that the man was intimidating and directly challenged him.

Rather than speaking, Demetri rose from his seat and approached her deliberately. Although it was a mere few steps, time seemed to stretch for Nora. When he was almost within touching distance, his hand gently landed on her knee, moving it sideways. His touch moved with a hint of a caress, and he stepped between her open legs. Nora sat there in frozen silence, her eyes wide like a deer caught in headlights.

Catching her chin between his fingers, he tilted her face upwards and spoke unhurriedly," You are my wife."

She nodded her head slowly in affirmation while his thumb slowly traced her lip. "I have given you time to gather your emotions."

Another nod. Nora's nervousness made her lick her lips, acutely aware of his intense gaze fixed upon them.

"Your reason for the marriage was to secure your inheritance and get away from under your mother's thumb."

"Yes..." Nora whispered in confusion. Her confusion was not about his statement but about the bewildering sensations coursing through her. What was happening with her?

"It's time for you to fulfil your end of the contract, yes?" He continued.

"Yes," Nora whispered breathlessly. Why was she breathless? Had the oxygen level in the house dropped? Was the air suddenly thinning?

Abruptly, his hand left her face, and she watched as he drew closer. It was then that Nora comprehended what was unfolding. All those tantalizing, heart-pounding kisses she had read about in novels were about to possibly become her reality.

But the anticipated kiss didn't happen. Instead, he paused near her and commanded, "Kiss me."

Evana anxiously paced her hotel room as she waited for the visitor records from the airport back home, her stomach in knots. However, even without the plans, she had a sinking feeling that Lucien had definitely been there. After all, the timeline matched.

Before that fateful day, despite how busy they had been, Lucien had never missed her call, day or night. And he'd never ignored her messages. No, what had he said when she'd asked him why he did not reply... He'd said, 'I did reply, Evana... with silence."

Her gut had warned her that something was wrong, but she'd attributed it to her own guilty conscience, ignoring the warning signs. The pit in her stomach deepened as she wondered how she was going to explain things to him.
