CAMILLAI wiped away the tears that immediately filled my eyes as I came to the realization that I messed up Alyssa's dress, again. "YOU!!" She cried out in exasperation as her raging eyes squinted at mine that her silky dress ruined by the wine.Abruptly, I took the tissue that Mia had handed me a
CAMILLAHis lips pressed against mine, and his hands roamed my body before settling down on my lower back, drawing me closer to his. I can feel his heart beating crazily, the same as mine, as if we were in sync and thinking the same thing at the moment.I let him...I gave in to his hunger and let
CAMILLANikolai and I were both startled at the sudden individual who entered the room. He immediately covered my body with his as he chuckled at my neck. But I could not contain my embarrassment and nervousness if that person turned on the lights while we were hiding here on the couch, naked.Sweat
CAMILLAThe sight of the dress being ripped and strewn all over the place was weakening my legs. I poured everything into the dress to be done on time and I made sure the dress was safe last night. What happened? Who did this?Grasping the strap of my purse, I tried to figure out what last-minute pa
"I'm not in a mood for a drink, Aubrey. I'm tired--""Camilla, are you okay?" Leslie ran toward us with a broad smile on her face. This should be a joyous moment for her. "That's alright, there is still a next collection next year."Next year? I'm not even sure if I'm still working here or with Niko
CAMILLAI can feel Nikolai's stare at mine, colder than the air ventilator. He appears to be a supervisor who discovers his employees neglecting their work as he stands there through the open door with his hands tucked into his pockets.I'm guilty.I avoided his eyes and drank my beer."How dare you
CAMILLAMy head was in such great pain when I woke up. I sat up and allowed the discomfort to gradually subside, though I suppose this is not how it will go away.How much did I drink yesterday? Can't count... This is Aubrey's fault.I groaned as I forced myself to open my eyes and looked around me.
CAMILLAAs I got out of the taxi, the sun was blazing down on me and I could see the building that I assumed Leslie lived in. Through my co-workers, I got her address and her apartment number.Despite Nikolai's prior warning that I shouldn't see Leslie again, I couldn't sleep last night, thinking of
CAMILLAI tied my hair as I made my way downstairs. Nikolai had already left for work while Miko and Mika were having a summer vacation. Miko just turned 25 last month, and my Mikaela will turn 18 next week. I'm thankful that she's not a spoiled brat and just wants to have a simple birthday with he
CAMILLAHis tongue invaded my mouth as it was struggling to find mine. I clung to his neck to find my balance while his hands reached my ass, squeezing them, which made me groan at the sensual pain I felt.I cling my right leg to his waist as I tiptoe to match his height. And devour his mouth again.
CAMILLAWhen I was sure that Mikaela was fully asleep in my arms, I slowly placed her down on the baby crib. I only sigh in relief that I'm finally free when I exit the room. I called Linda to watch over Mikaela inside our room while I was preparing dinner for us.Five months have passed, and everyt
CAMILLAMy whole body was aching. I couldn't move an inch, or maybe I just didn't have enough power to move my fingers or toes. I groaned as I opened my eyes, and the light coming from the window glistened in my eyes. Wait… what happened? I remember that I dashed out of the hospital. Am I back here
AUBREYI know what he's thinking. So I abruptly avoided his eyes. “Are you nuts? Of course not. It's been months since we– I'm going home.”I was about to walk away in embarrassment, but he pulled my hand, and we both walked to his car. “I'll take you home.”The whole ride was too damn awkward. I do
AUBREY I just got out of the Galileo when Van called me to meet in the cafe near the company to discuss something. As usual, I only attended important meetings before leaving work after lunch. Camilla is not in good condition right now. She's giving birth any moment now, and Nikolai hasn't found i
CAMILLAMy heart pounded frantically upon hearing the statement of these people. “What? No… no! Please! Find my husband!” I exclaimed as I tried to get off the bed carefully.“We have to conclude that he may have been eaten or drowned at the bottom of the sea, which was difficult to search that vas
“Are you really ba-back?”I sobbed when he nodded again, and I immediately wrapped my arms around him.His warmth, his breathing, and his touch were all so real. He's wearing a tuxedo like he usually wore at work with disheveled hair and tiring eyes. Did he experience something terrible wherever he
CAMILLADays have passed, and they still haven't gotten anything. I was frustrated to the point that I wanted to question the search and rescue team if they were doing their job properly or not. Cole already talked and pointed to Carson as the mastermind in putting a bomb on Nikolai's plane. Hearin
