My Cold Husband By The Fireplace
The storm had been relentless for hours, casting an oppressive atmosphere over the house. Rain drummed against the windows, streaking down the glass in chaotic patterns. Inside, the fire crackled weakly in the chimney fireplace, but its warmth felt distant compared to the icy knot in Lily’s stomach. She sat curled in the deep armchair, a blanket draped over her shoulders and a half-empty cup of coffee growing cold in her trembling hands. Her eyes were fixed on the flickering flames, but her mind was far away-trapped in a loop of memories she couldn’t silence. Zared. His name echoed in her thoughts like a haunting melody she couldn’t turn off. The sharpness in his eyes that day, the way he had looked at her as though she were both his strength and his weakness, like he would do anything to bring her back. His presence was etched into her memory, tangled with fear, confusion, and something she couldn’t quite name. Behind her, the faint creak of the door stirred her from her

“Then let me help you,” he said, his voice barely above a murmur. “You don’t have to carry this alone, Lily.” Her fingers curled slightly around his, her shoulders trembling as she exhaled shakily. For a moment, the world outside-the storm, the threats, the shadows-faded into silence. Aaron shifted slightly, closing the space between them until their knees brushed. He didn’t pull her into his arms, didn’t overwhelm her with more words. He simply stayed there, his hand wrapped securely around hers, his presence steady and unyielding. She needed that. “Everything feels so heavy,” Lily admitted after a moment, her voice lighter as she lowered her head. Aaron’s thumb brushed gently across the back of her hand. “I know. But you’re stronger than you realize. And you’re not alone anymore.” 'Love' The silence stretched again, but this time it wasn’t oppressive-it was soft, comforting. "Thank you, Aaron. Thank you." "You don't have to thank me." The living room had fallen

Lily’s eyes lifted to meet his, and for a moment, she looked so small, so fragile, wrapped in that blanket with fear and exhaustion in those eyes of her.“What do we do now?” she asked softly. Aaron’s voice was firm, steady. “We leave. Tomorrow. The penthouse is secure, it’ll be harder for anyone to get close without being noticed.”Lily’s lips parted slightly as she processed his words. “You mean… we’ll leave this house? Just like that?” “Yes.” Aaron’s hand reached out hesitantly before resting lightly on her knee, his touch warm through the thick fabric of the blanket. “I know this is sudden-very sudden in fact, but I cant compromise in this matter. You are not safe here, no matter how much security and no matter how many bodyguards I hire, we dont know who we are dealing with. I'll ask Clara to move as well, we'll stay there until this matter is resolved, she'll be there, don't worry."Her breath hitched slightly as she looked down at his hand, then back into his sharp silver eye

Aaron stepped closer towards Clara, his voice firm but gentle. “I’ve already arranged everything. We’re leaving for the penthouse today-in the afternoon. It’s secure, private, and no one will be able to get near her there and its not safe for you to stay here either, we all must move-today.” "What? Wait-" "We have to do this, Clara," Aaron cut her mid sentence, "we have to take practical action for what's happening. And I know you won't want Lily hurt any less than me." "Alright," Clara admitted in defeat, she knew this was to be done, whether or not sudden but it was no longer safe for Lily-or any of them. "But how will I pack in a day?" "You dont need to worry about that, I have hired a team, they will do it-it wont take much of our time." Clara nodded slowly, setting her mug down with trembling hands. “Does Lily know about this?” "Yes," Aaron admitted. “I didn’t want to scare her any more than she already is. But she agreed to the move." Clara sighed, her shoulders sa

Across from the bed, a white study table stood neatly arranged. Her laptop rested on one side, while another vase of tulips and a matching candle mirrored the bedside arrangement. A small tabletop mirror reflected the faint light, and beside it sat a framed photo-a captured moment of happiness from one of their picnics. In the picture, Lily, Clara, and Aaron smiled brightly, frozen in time amidst sunlit grass and laughter. Beside it was the door to the washroom and the bathroom.On the other side of her bed was the door to the walk-in closet. Beside it was a mirror on covering half the wall. This was the real life room from her Pinterest board. Even though she had a huge room back at her father's mansion, she never got to style it how she wanted to. Aaron had done so much for her-for her happiness. Lily appreciated and even teared up a bit at the realisation of what lengths he had gone to just to make her happy and protect her. As someone who has never had anyone do things for her, s

He could only be there, glued by her side.Lily’s voice cracked as she finally spoke between gasps for air."Make this go away...please just make it all go away, make it go away. Please."The words broke off, lost in the next wave of sobs. She clung to him as though she were afraid of being swept away by some storm that was after her, but even in his arms, she couldn’t escape the the voices from within her.As Aaron held Lily, her breath slowly began to steady, but the weight in her chest didn’t seem to lift. The suffocating thoughts, the relentless voices that had been haunting her for so long, refused to let go. She could feel them creeping back into her mind, threatening to drown her again. But Aaron-his steady presence, the softness of his touch-was a welcome distraction. A distraction that was more than welcomed by Lily because at this point...she would aaccept anything just to let go off these voices.He gently cupped her face, pulling back just slightly to look into her eyes.

It wasn’t just a distraction. It couldn’t be. At least not for her. Maybe she should wait till her mind cleared, she told herself, maybe she was too high on stress and emotions. But then she closed her eyes for a brief second, swallowing the pang of disappointment that threatened to rise. It was just a distraction, she told herself again, trying to convince her heart to accept the truth. But no matter how hard she tried, the feeling that there was something more-something deeper between them-lingered. Yet, she didn’t say a word. She only nodded again, trying to mask the confusion and longing stirring within her. The room had settled into a fragile silence, the air still charged with the remnants of everything that had passed between them. Lily sat on the edge of the bed, her knees pulled up to her chest, arms wrapped tightly around them. Aaron had stepped away, giving her space, but he lingered nearby, leaning against the doorframe with his arms crossed over his chest, he got up s

“I meant what I said, Lily. I won’t push you into anything you’re not clearly ready for. But if you’re asking whether it meant something to me-then yes. It did. It was a distraction for your sake, not mine.” Lily’s breath caught, her hazel eyes wide as she stared up at him. With that Aaron got up and made his way out the door.Lily sat still, the warmth of the blankets wrapped around her shoulders, her gaze lingering on the spot where Aaron had sat just moments ago.His words echoed in her mind: "If you're asking whether it meant something to me-then yes. It did."Her chest tightened, and her fingers clutched the fabric of the blanket as if it could anchor her to the moment. The vulnerability in his voice, the honesty in his eyes-it all lingered, pulling her deeper into emotions she wasn’t ready to name, it should feel like too much-too much happening too fast, but it didnt. It felt like what was happening should happen.But even now, her mind waged war with itself. One voice remin

My Cold Husband Unspoken Truths
"I can forgive you, I guess. People have done worse than this." She admitted. "Did he do anything to you? What did he come for?" Lily's eyes narrowed. "I’ve had...Damian keeping an eye on you ever since he revealed himself to you...." Aaron admitted, "I didn’t want you to be blindsided by him.” For a moment, she didn’t know whether to be angry or grateful. “Why didn’t you tell me?” she asked, her voice quiet. “Because I didn’t want to scare you,” he said honestly. “I wanted to make sure you were safe, but I also wanted to respect your space. I wasn’t sure if hearing it from me would help or just...make things worse.” Her emotions overwhelmed her, and before she could stop herself, tears welled up in her eyes. Aaron, without hesitation, reached across the table and took her hand. “It’s okay,” he said softly. “You’re safe now. That’s all that matters.” For the first time in what felt like forever, Lily let herself break. She leaned across the table, and Aaron
My Cold Husband Night Of Realisations
Lily was sitting in her living room, her mind a whirlwind of the confrontation with Zared and Aaron stepping in, having her back-as always. After all that happened, she wondered if her pushing Zared off was selfish of her. While Lily had grown more mature these years, she had also become cold and made sure to keep herself first at any cost-but this Lily...it was the old Lily...who wanted to think that she was wrong for mistreating Zared-maybe her was disturbed, what could have possibly been the reason for him to fake his death-how big the problem must've been? A knock at the door startled her from her thoughts. Frowning, she checked the time-it was late, far too late for visitors. Cautiously, she approached the door and looked through the peephole. It was Zared. Her breath caught, and her hand instinctively tightened on the doorknob. Part of her wanted to ignore him, but the other part-the one still grappling with the guilt of his supposed death-compelled her to open the
My Cold Husband Shielded From Him
Lily sat across from Clara in her cozy apartment after the massive shock she had, the glow of the city lights filtered through the windows. Clara had invited her over for an evening of conversation, sensing something was weighing heavily on her friend. As Lily sipped her tea, her fingers fidgeted with the rim of the cup. “Clara,” she began hesitantly, “something happened yesterday.” Clara raised an eyebrow. “What is it?" Taking a deep breath, Lily placed the cup down and looked Clara in the eye. “Zared is alive.” Clara froze, the mug in her hands suspended mid-air. “What?” “He came to my office. I didn’t recognize him at first, but it was him, Clara. He’s alive, and he... he apologized for everything.” Clara placed her cup down, her expression a mixture of shock and confusion. “Zared? As in Zared Williams?The same man who k*lled himself? How is that even possible?” Lily shook her head, her voice shaky. “I don’t know. He said it was complicated and that he was tryin
My Cold Husband Back From The Dead
Lily sat at her desk in her company, her fingers hovering over her keyboard. The day had been long and draining, but there was still a stack of work to get through. She sighed, rubbing her temples, when a soft knock interrupted her thoughts. “Come in,” she called not lifting her head up. The door opened and closed behind. “Do you need anything, ma'am?” "No, thanks." "Would you like some coffee?" "No, you can go." Lily said, her tone cold as her eyes remained on the screen. “Some tea?" he asked Her brows furrowed but her eyes remained on her paperwork. "I dont need anything, leave before I fire you." There was a pause, but the person in front of her didn’t leave. Instead, he took a step closer. “Are you sure? I can fetch you tea, coffee... water, maybe?” Lily looked up briefly, irritation flickering across her face, though she still didn’t focus on him entirely. “No, thank you. And I think you should go.” But the man didn’t move. “How about I help you
My Cold Husband Fragile Connections
It had been two weeks since the gala, and life had settled back into its usual rhythm for Lily; or at least, that’s what she told herself over the weeks. The days were packed with meetings, client calls, and deadlines, leaving her little time to dwell on anything else. But no matter how busy she was, Aaron’s presence lingered in the back of her mind like a stubborn shadow. She hadn’t expected to see him again so soon, and certainly not like that-standing across a room, looking at her with a mix of longing and regret. Lily shook her head as she sat at her desk, trying to push the memory aside. He doesn’t matter anymore, she reminded herself. You’ve moved on. Your life is yours now. But the truth was harder to face. A part of her was still drawn to him, to the man who had once made her feel like the center of his universe. Later that evening at her apartment, as she stepped into the kitchen, her phone buzzed on the counter. She picked it up to see Clara’s name flashing on
My Cold Husband Unforgivable Memories
Aaron was already making his way toward her, his steps purposeful but hesitant. “Do you want me to distract him?” Clara asked, noticing. “No,” Lily said, surprising even herself. “I’ll handle it.” When he finally reached her, he stopped just short of invading her space. “Lily,” he said, his voice a mix of relief and uncertainty. “Aaron,” she replied, keeping her tone neutral. Clara took that as her cue to slip away, leaving them alone. “You look...” Aaron trailed off, his gaze softening. “You look beautiful.” “Thank you,” Lily said, her walls firmly in place. There was an awkward silence before Aaron spoke again. “How have you been?” “Busy,” Lily said simply. “You?” "Same. Busy." He said, his eyes boring into her's. Aaron Knight had never been one to doubt himself. His confidence, honed over years of navigating ruthless boardrooms and mastering impossible deals, was unshakable. But now, sitting in his empty penthouse with the city lights stretching endlessly b
My Cold Husband 4 Years Later...
The 4 years that followed were a whirlwind of success for Lily. As the founder and CEO of her own fashion brand, she had become a name synonymous with innovation and elegance. Her designs graced international runways, and her name carried weight in the business world. She was confident, composed, and exactly where she wanted to be. It was a crisp evening in the city, and Lily sat in her office overlooking the bustling streets below. She tapped her pen against the edge of her notebook, her mind wandering. A knock at the door broke her thoughts. Clara walked in, looking radiant as ever in a sleek jumpsuit. “Your PR team says you need to approve the final list for the charity gala tomorrow,” she said, placing a folder on Lily’s desk. Lily smirked. “You didn’t need to bring this yourself. What’s the real reason you’re here?” Clara feigned an offended look. “What, I can’t check on my dear friend? Fine, maybe I just needed a break from my office. Paperwork is soul-sucking.”
My Cold Husband The Hollowing
The penthouse felt lifeless. Every step Aaron took echoed through the empty rooms, each sound reminding him of what he’d lost. He couldn’t stop himself from wandering to Lily’s favorite spots-the kitchen where she used to hum softly while brewing tea, the couch where they would argue about what to watch, her corner of the bedroom where her books were still stacked neatly, her pink and white bedroom-the one she always dreamed about. He stood by the window where Lily once leaned against his chest, watching the city lights together happily. Now, those same lights felt distant and cold. On the coffee table lay a scarf she’d left behind, forgotten in the rush of her departure. Aaron’s hand trembled as he picked it up, the soft fabric bringing back the faintest trace of her perfume. He closed his eyes, clutching it tightly as if it could somehow bring her back. Aaron couldn’t shake the memory of her face when she left, her tear filled eyes, the hurt in her voice as she said goodbye.
My Cold Husband Shattered Remnants
The penthouse felt cavernous in her absence. Lily’s steps echoed faintly against the polished floors as she carried a small bag down the hall. She had packed only the essentials-clothes, documents, and her favorite book-a conscious decision not to look back. The thought of leaving the home they'd shared stung, but staying felt like drowning. Her mind replayed the scene in Aaron’s study, the damning photographs and the file with her name etched at the top. Every piece of information about her, laid bare-her family, her childhood, her fears. She’d trusted him, and in return, he had dissected her life like a puzzle to control. As she neared the door, the faint scent of his cologne lingered, and her grip on the bag tightened. This was the only goodbye she could give. Aaron had been out since the incident-a small mercy-but as Lily turned the handle, she heard the elevator hum to life. Her heart plummeted. The doors slid open, and Aaron stepped out, his suit slightly dishevel
