Lily's POV

I snaked my hand down to his waist, so close to reaching my goal, all that remained was—

“Fuck no,” Will said, catching my hand.

Something was happening to me. It was like hell inside me; I wanted the ground to swallow me. I wanted to be anywhere but here. I did not want Will anywhere close by. It took me a minute to realize what that emotion was: rejection. I had never experienced it. I had never been told no sexually. Not that I had many sexual experiences—all the experiences I had were with Will, except for my rape, which was not a sexual experience but something else I tried not to think about.

“Lily, look at me.”

I did not look at him. I had turned my face to the left, and for the second time that day, my eyes were leaking because of Will.

“Lily,” he called, sharper this time. He tried to turn my head, and I batted his hands away.

“What the hell, leave me alone!”

Will looked torn and then confused.

“What happened?” he asked. He was raking his eyes over me as if he coul

    Will POVAfter breakfast, where Aria’s glares were sharper than knives, I dropped August at his special school myself. I returned to find Lily and Toby seated in the SUV, ready to go. Lily was in the back seat, and Toby was in the passenger seat. I entered to sit with Lily.“Hey,” I said, raking my eyes over Lily.“Hey,” she said back with a shy smile.“A-hem.” Toby cleared his throat.I glared at him through the mirror. I really should have told him to ride separately today.“You did not tell me hi,” Toby said.“I never tell you hi, Toby.”“But you just told Lily hi, and it’s a little unfair not to extend the same courtesy to everyone in the car. Don't you think so, Luke?”The driver did not say anything; he just kept his eyes on the road. Remind me to double his salary.“I did not get to ask you. How was your day yesterday?”“Fine.” that’s all he needs to know.Only TOby still wanted some more “Did you kiss some more?”I did not respond.“Did you try to swallow Lily whole again?”Th

    Will's POV"Woah, wait. You do not think Nancy did it, do you? I do not think she would.""We cannot be sure, boss. We will confront everyone we suspect. All the workers will be under probation until we find who tipped off the press."I settled deeper into my chair, clearly tense. I did not blame him. I was tense too. I had only encountered the paparazzi a few times, but God, that was enough. The idea of walking down a path where those vultures were terrified me. I did not realize I was tapping my foot restlessly until Will placed a hand on my thigh."Relax," he said as if it were that easy. "It’s just paparazzi; we will be fine. I won’t let anything happen to you."I nodded. Of course, he wouldn’t let them harm me physically, but that was beside my worry right now. I was not scared that one of them was going to shoot me or something. I was scared of the kind of questions they would throw at me.Toby groaned. “Jesus fucking Christ. They’ve somehow followed us or known to come here.” H

    Damien POV “My other spy just told me Nancy has gotten herself caught.”“Let us strike now. The paparazzi are already causing a bit of a distraction. We need another form of distraction inside without it being so obvious. Are you sure they keep money in here?”“Yes. That Nancy girl was foolish enough to give me keys to my former office. I had a monitor there with cameras linked to the majority of the building.”“Contact your other spy to create a distraction. I’ll contact Russ and the guys.”My spy creates a distraction. I don’t bother asking him what kind of distraction it is, just that it works. Then Lyon calls the guys, and they go into the building. We wait until we think Will has caught them, or maybe the men have duped us, but after an hour and a half, four men walk toward us in three-piece suits carrying four briefcases. The one in front—Russ, I assume—gives us a wink before they walk past our car to the SUV and Hilux parked a couple of meters away. They drive off immediately,

    CHAPTER FORTY-FIVE Lily’s POV Nancy was still begging to keep her job when the lights in the company went out, sending the whole place into chaos. Toby had security escort Nancy outside of the building while Will led me to his office. I sat quietly, feeling useless while everyone else in the company got busy. Virtual meetings had been cut off, and numerous computers were down, causing disruption of work and weakening security. Everyone was working to figure out what had happened and to get the electricity back up. Will kept answering call after call, addressing people’s concerns about their interrupted meetings and reassuring them that everything was all right and that it was just a minor electrical issue. “No, your money is not at risk. No, this isn't someone causing a distraction to steal from you. No, the company is not closing without public consent. Yes, it is just a minor issue that will be resolved shortly. No, I have not sold the company without informing shareholders

    Damien’s POV“I need to talk to you,” I said as I barged into his office. It was just as I remembered from the last time I was here a few months ago. He didn’t let me into his office often; he treated it like a sanctuary. It was decorated with awards and medals dating back to his childhood. Father had always been a winner—in class, in sports, debates, bets, business—he always won. He was not accustomed to the word failure. William had followed in his footsteps. Those two were the boring, nerdy bookworms nobody liked. But they won in everything; they were organized, neat, handsome, tall, and strong, commanding rooms filled with people. They were the all-work-no-play types people liked to describe in romance novels.I was not like that. I was the fun, smiling, disorganized, cool one everybody liked. At least, everybody liked me when I was younger, but ever since I came back from college months ago, everyone expected me to be who I was not. They expected me to be my father or William, an

    Unknown POVWhoever said, "If you want something done perfectly, do it yourself," is a genius. It's been weeks since I told that idiot Greg to handle the matter of that new wife, and he's probably dead or avoiding me. He better be dead, because if I ever learn he's still breathing, I'll kill him myself.I took another deep inhale from my cigarette and puffed it out. I had considered killing Will's driver and taking his place, but that would make the death very traceable to me, especially considering the fact that William is obsessed with his new wife.I stood by the side outside William's house and waited. I liked to come here, to this house, and stand outside to catch glimpses of the kind of life William and his other family members lived. The kind of life my mother and I never got. I watched the news carefully when I learned that Carter was dead, waiting to see my name or at least that of my mother. I should have expected to see nothing. I should also not have been surprised when he

    Lily's POVOne day, I would rip out my heart and throw it away. It had made it its life mission to always embarrass me when it came to William Carter. I couldn't even pretend to act cool and composed around him, especially when I was this close to him. The only thing giving me comfort was the fact that our heartbeats were synchronized, and I could hear his heart too.He was sniffing my neck, nuzzling his nose against it, and gently running his hand from my neck to my waist consistently. I wondered why. Before, when he was just a client, he would quickly go straight to the point. He made sure I was comfortable first, yes, but there was hardly any cuddling or sniffing.“You have no idea how long I’ve wanted to do this,” he said.“Sniff me?” I had long ditched the thought that I would have any composure or class when it came to Will. My voice sounded like I was struggling to breathe, let alone talk, and that couldn’t be closer to the truth.Will chuckled. His voice was low, lower than us

    CHAPTER FIFTY-THREEDamien’s POVI love when I set out to do one evil deed and a free opportunity to do more presents itself. I came today with no plan; all I wanted was to disturb Will’s peace a little, remind him I am still alive, and maybe remind Aria that she said she would help me inherit the company. But then heaven blessed me, and I found August outside.The boy had run to me, calling me daddy. I watched in amusement as he hugged my legs, giggling, then looked up and frowned.“You are not my daddy,” he said, puzzled.“No, I am not,” I replied with a sly smile.August giggled again. “But you look so much like him. I thought you were him.”“No,” I said, shaking my head. “But,” I continued “We are brothers.”I was amused that Lily’s son called Will's father. Lily sure knows how to make people take responsibility for things they did and did not do, just like she made me pay for... our incident. Now, she has Will playing daddy for August and her so-called unborn child, whom we are

    CHAPTER FIFTY-TWOLily’s POVWill and I had successfully avoided work for an entire week, and Aria had been planning creative ways to kill me. But with Will always on my mind, I found it hard to care.Will thought I didn’t know what he was doing when he ‘accidentally’ locked my room door and lost the key, or when the maid ‘mistakenly’ dropped my laundry in his room. I didn’t say anything about it. I liked it. I liked to pretend I wanted my room, but if Will ever asked me to go to my room, I would die. Literally, I would fall and die.It was 10:32 AM on a Sunday, and August was free today. Will had his therapy session canceled so we could all go out as a family.I gently disentangled myself from Will’s body and quietly climbed down from the bed. I threw on one of Will’s shirts because I was too lazy to go to my room or find my clothes in his second drawer.Tying my hair into a messy bun, I walked out of the room to spend a little time with August alone, something that was hardly possib

    CHAPTER FIFTY-ONEWill’s POVI don’t blame Aria for hating Lily. She is right. Lily is good for me.Should I be dressed and ready to go to work? Yes.Do I need to go to work? Yes.Am I dressed and ready to go to work? No.Will I go? Hell no!I had called Toby again to tell him I wasn't going to make it to work. My excuse? I’m sick. Was I sick? No, but I would be if I didn’t taste Lily one more time. Lily had excused herself to go back to her room to get dressed. I’ll have to get her things brought here, or if she likes her room so much, I can move to it. It doesn’t matter, but all this separate room nonsense is not going to work.“You’re not dressed?” Lily asked, barging into my room to pick up clothes she left in my bedroom.“No,” I said, grinning.“What?” She asked, stopping to look at me. “Why are you staring at me like that?”“I like the way you entered my room like it’s yours.”Nothing can replace the pleasure of seeing Lily blush as she quickly disappeared into the bathroom to p

    CHAPTER FIFTYLily POVIt was Monday morning, and I woke up to small kisses being trailed along my neck. I groaned and sank deeper into the feel of Will.It is Monday morning and after what could only be described as the best weekend in history, I do not want to wake up let alone go to work.“Open your eyes, Lily,” Will growled. “I know you are awake.”I did not open my eyes. I did not want to open my eyes. Maybe if I keep my eyes closed long enough, I would be able to keep him here in bed with me throughout the day.“Can we not just stay?” I groaned.“Of course we can, we can stay as long as you want but that would only give Aria more reasons to hate you and make the papara—Will didn’t get any other words out as I brought my lips to his kissing him gently.Will sighed into the kiss and wrapped his arms around my back and my neck drawing me deeper in. God, I’d missed this—it had only been hours, but I missed it already. I missed feeling like we were both going to lose it if we did no

    Damien’s POV“You foolish man, I thought getting drunk was my thing,” Lyon said. He had been scolding me and telling me things I did not care for.He is right though, getting excessively drunk is his thing, not mine. He was leading me to the car so we could go home I suppose.“I do not want to go home.” I slur.“I am sure. Your wife will kill you if you go home like this.” Lyon said and laughed loudly. “I thought you said you were a changed man? Change my ass man.”“Oh shut the fuck up.”Lyon laughed again and retrieved the car key from my pocket.“shit.” He cursed. “You have to stand on your own, wait while I go get the key, I think you left it on the table we used.”Immediately Lyon left me I fell flat on my butt drawing unwanted attention and Lyon's unwarranted laugh.He left me there struggling with no success to get back on my feet. He came back a minute later with the key. “Remind me to never let you drink this much ever again,” he said helping me into the car.“Fuckkk-you,” I sa
