CAMILLAI woke up, still feeling drowsy, but I managed to open my eyes. Nikolai's face is the first beautiful thing I see as soon as I recover my sight from the dark of the room.Nikolai is wide awake. Probably, he didn't sleep after the tiring exercise we did earlier. He was only staring at the cei
-3 months later-CAMILLANikolai and I decided to stay here in Boston. He bought a house, which is half the size of his mansion in L.A. This is better since the only three of us are staying here.Nikolai built his own company, together with his secretary, Van. I didn't know Van had his loyalty to Ni
CAMILLAI woke up without Nikolai beside me. As I glanced at the clock, marked nine in the morning, I jolted off the bed and headed to the kitchen.I was supposed to prepare Nikolai's meal since it was the first day of his work.However, food was already prepared on the table, and a note saying ‘Don
CAMILLANikolai carried Miko in his arms and pulled my wrist away from Vince. I felt that Nikolai's gesture was rude. He at least introduced himself before taking off and dragging me out for the crowd with him.Stephanie followed us silently.Why does he look annoyed more than me?Once we were outsi
CAMILLAI sensed someone was talking in a low tone around me, causing me to regain my consciousness. My head was heavy as if I drank too much alcohol before I passed out.With a soft groan, I opened my eyes, and the first thing I saw was Nikolai's worried eyes.“How are you feeling?” He suddenly ask
CAMILLAAs I anxiously stepped out of the car, breathing heavily, I was surprised to see Ciara coming out of the car.What is she doing here? How did she find out where we live? But I'm more confused at her disheveled face. She looks exhausted about something, and maybe I'm involved with it since s
NIKOLAIThis is the first time I've seen Camilla's parents personally. We never had a chance to introduce ourselves because of the situation before. Miko meets his grandparents for the first time, and Camilla's reaction to how warm her family is to our son makes her cry. She can't stop crying even
CAMILLAMy hands were sweating furiously as I hid myself behind the wall before Nikolai could see me since he was facing in my direction.Why am I nervous?Seeing Nikolai's mother again gives me a scare. Of course, they are mad at me because Nikolai gave up everything just to save me and my family.
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
