“To think that we would be doing this on our first date,” Dean sighed as he carried the box in his hands into the bedroom.

“Well, we can be sure that it will never be dull with Maria around,” Nadia said with an amused smile.

Dean looked at her as she leaned against the counter and reached for the scissors, she was still in her tight jeans and was now wearing a short t-shirt making her curves look even more alluring.

It took a huge effort for him to calm his excitement down and look away from her. It was going to be much harder to resist being with her in close quarters. Back when he was staying with her, Luke was always around or there was always something on their minds keeping them in check.

Now it was different. Now she agreed to be with him, which made him want to reach out to her whenever she was within his grasp.

“Hey, are you okay?” She asked as she walked toward him putting a soft hand on his arm as she looked at him with concern.

“No, I’m not.” He mumbled circling his arms a

    “To call this a coincidence would be too much of an understatement,” Ray said with a grin as he sat before Nadia and Anna, “This must be fate…”Nadia watched closely as Anna stiffened beside her. Ray had been grinning from ear to ear since he came to meet them. He pulled Nadia into a tight hug, then looked at Anna who took a step back, she stared at him for a moment before giving him a forced smile in greeting.Ray was still grinning from ear to ear chatting with him, quite one-sidedly. It was clear that Anna disliked Ray a lot, but Ray didn’t seem to mind her attitude as if he was quite used to it.Nadia glared at Dean and then realized what he did. He knew Anna didn’t like Ray and he still invited him. He was being silly, like a five-year-old. He was always like that whenever Anna was around. His bad habits stuck out and he started acting like a teenager by avoiding the girl he dated out on a whim.“There’s no fate about it, Dean invited you here. Stop being so nasty about this,” An

    Dean reached out for the cabbage on the shelf and then paused. As he watched the vegetable rack for a moment, he remembered Nadia’s expression when she ate a cabbage salad back in Blue Ridge.She was making a neutral expression but the way she held her fork tightly and sulked in between bites reminded him of himself back when Luke was eating his vegetables. It was subtle and no one would have noticed but Dean did because he was always watching her. Taking a step back, Dean made his way back to pick up some chicken. Now that his anger and fear had subsided, he was burdened by the guilt about what he did earlier that evening.He acted exactly as Nadia described, like a teenage bully who was ganging up on the unpopular girl. The way Nadia had glared at him as she talked earlier hit a nerve and he knew that what he did wasn’t something she tolerated.In fact, she seemed to take it quite personally.Maybe he should prepare her favorite fried chicken instead today. Her mood may improve en

    Nadia stared down at her laptop her mind miles away. After hearing what Ray said about Mark, Nadia felt the urgency of the situation urging her to make a move.Since Grace’s accident, Mark had erased his existence from Blue Ridge and had been laying low all this time. No wonder she couldn’t track him down anywhere. She learned over the years that whenever he did that, he was plotting something. And she had the impression that whatever he was plotting this time, will be coming straight toward them.He went too far with Grace and he must have been aware of it already, Fingers will be pointing toward him if he soeas something that bold again.Reaching for the mostly destroyed hard drive, she looked down at it before incerting it into ther laptop. If there was nothing she could do, she could at least uncover the truth from the past. Although she still wasn’t sure about wanting to see the face of the man she mt back then.She felt like it would destroy the balance she had in her life then,

    Nadia watched carefully as the man sitting before Dean sweated bullets and looked around him like a caged animal. He was visibly trembling as if he was brought here against his will and if it wasn’t for his lawyer who was sitting right beside him, Nadia would have been worried about being accused of kidnapping and intimidation.It didn’t take the company long to track down the employee who left back when the project was being developed. Nadia expected weeks to go by but to their surprise, the man wasn’t really hiding. And when he was invited to a meeting with Dean, he had agreed requesting to bring in his lawyer.Of course, things wouldn’t be as simple, and he didn’t admit to stealing the information from the company. Which means that they were at an impasse.“I wasn’t the one who brought up the idea in the first place, I was only participating in brainstorming it with the team. That’s when rumors started spreading and I was forced to leave the company,” He explained as he looked arou

She was helping her father’s spy all along!“I will send you the details, just make sure to whip out my trail. This is on WhiteFlower,” Grey Cape said.“Understood, Thank you,” She said mechanically before hanging up.Putting down the phone, Nadia stood up again not caring about the fatigue or dizziness anymore, they had their suspect. They had her and she was someone who was under their noses all along.Nadia smiled as she sat at her desk and fired up her laptop. Now, that she had her evidence, she could use Mark’s game against him. And everything will come to light in one grand show. She typed a message to Donna and then made her way to the office where Dean was. Peeking inside, she found him working and he looked up at her with a smile.“You look in a better mood,” He pointed out.She smiled.“I am. We have our spy,” She announced.“Seriously? That fast?” He a

    Nadia took a deep breath letting it out, her heart felt as if it was bruised by the contact of the shock. Suddenly her sensation was sharper and she could feel even the rustle of her clothes on her skin bothering her.Her heart was still racing with heavy thuding in her ears and the room seemed to be dimmed and cold, as if it was wrapped in grey fog separating her from Dean who stood only feet away from her.She wanted to speak but no words would come out of her mouth, all she could think about was that he knew. He knew what she did. How much did he know? How long?“Aren’t you going to answer me?” He asked softly as he stood up facing her.Nadia couldn’t look him in the eyes and kept staring at his lips as he spoke wondering where this went wrong. She was on top of the world just moments ago, and now she was plummeting into a bottomless pit with only one sentence from this man.“What do you want me to say?” She asked her voice seeming like a robot talking back to her.“Well, for start

    Nadia opened her eyes wincing at the bright light hitting her eyes. Closing them again she groaned as she shifted her body. It was aching all over, the pain was especially noticeable in her foot.Wincing, she opened her eyes again looking arond her. She was in a hospital room. Looking at the window she could see the seting sun casting the room in a warm hue of orrange making her relax a bit. That is until she looked to the other side to find Dean there. He was sitting and sleeping with his arms crosed. The chair looked uncomfortable and he was still in the clothes he was wearing last night.Last night… She could remember their conversation, but it all got blurry after she looked at him. That look he gave her, he looked as if he wanted to tell her something. What happened after that?“Nadia?” His voice penetrated her thoughts and she looked back at him to find him looking at her with wide eyes.“You’re awake! How are you feeling,” he asked as he leaned forward his hand on her bed.“I-

    “Hmm… it’s quite fitting if you look at it this way…” Dean mumbled against her as he watched the TV from behind her on the couch of his office.It was a weekend and they were at the company taking care of an urgent legal meeting to finalize the case details with the Talbots, then they turned the TV on to watch the news which was still talking about the Ruin of the Talbots.It turned into such a grand event that everyone was talking about them, which was her doing. Hers and Leilah’s…“What is?” She asked letting him nuzzle the side of her head.“I mean this end, look at them, panicking over the media. They couldn’t even handle the press conference,” He trailed off with a smile.He seemed quite pleased with watching them like this, probably more than she did. Which was a bit unexpected. When Nadia told him everything, she hadn’t expected his full support on this. He had taken her from the hospital back to the apartment taking care of her and even suggesting to help her with any leftove

    Nadia woke up with a start breathing heavily as sweat dampened her temple. Feeling someone shift beside her, she shivered at the whisk of air passing through her damp skin as Dean sat up in bed beside her.“Hey…” he whispered and Nadia sighed covering her face with her palms.“I’m so tired of this…” she said hotly as she tried to suppress the frustration tears that threatened to fall down her cheeks.She felt a blanket being thrown on her shoulders before Dean’s big and warm hands stroked her back slowly soothing away the nerves that had been keeping her body tense.“Come on, lay down…” he said in a soft tone and Nadia followed his command laying against him as he circled his arms around her.His fingers combed through her hair slowly massaging her skull. Her heartbeat was begin in to slowly return to its natural rhythm when he finally spoke again.“Maybe you need to say your goodbyes..” he said slowly.The way Dean spoke and how he acted was becoming their routine.

    Three weeks later, "So, how was your last check-up with the doctor?" Nadia asked as she sat at the bedside of the huge man before her.The man chucked and gave her a wry look as if asking her if she was really asking him this question."I should be the one asking you this question, Miss. You're the one who got admitted recently," he said with a smile."Oh, come on, Blake! Mine was just a flesh wound and too much drama. You're the one who was about to cross to the other side for a moment there," She answered with a fake frown.Blake, the man who saved Luke when he was kidnapped, regained consciousness only after Nadia was admitted to the hospital. The first thing the man asked for was his hospitalized daughter and Luke.Nadia had made a vow to herself that she would do her best to protect the man and his daughter no matter what. So once she heard that he was awake, she visited him and they began talking. It turned out that the man wasn't a criminal and that he only did this mission b

    Dean raced down the seemingly endless corridor, each step echoing with a sense of dread. This floor had been reserved exclusively for Nadia's penthouse, accessible only with her permission or a special keycard. Yet, Dean knew that Mark had the potential to breach the security. Nadia had been aware of this vulnerability in the system, which was why she'd consented to have a bodyguard with them at all times.But Miller, in his attempt to spring this trap, had incapacitated their bodyguard, leaving them vulnerable just when Mark arrived. As they approached the open door, Dean's heart raced with a mix of fear and determination. Agents ahead of him cautiously entered the room, assessing the situation. When Dean was finally permitted to move forward, the sound that greeted him was heart-wrenching.Nadia's muffled sobs pierced the air, a stark contrast to the chaos within. Mark lay on the ground, his face a grotesque mask of brutality. Nadia was in Karl's arms, her tears flowing uncontrollab

    "It's nice to see you always running to the rescue of your fiance... But we can't have you going in there ruining our plans yet," Miller said with a smile as he looked at his agents and nodded."Make sure they won't run away," he ordered."Hey! What are you doing!" Keith protested as they surrounded him."You were in on this all along..." Dean said gritting his teeth as he struggled against the agents that were holding his hands back.How had he not seen this?"Wait a minute, What are you talking about?" Miller asked looking at him with a frown."You're acting like nothing is wrong, then why are you standing at the door of our apartment building stopping me from getting inside? Is the agency now supporting Mark, or were you on his side all along and we were the idiots believing you?" Dean asked feeling helplessly frustrated as he pushed back against the men holding him only to be overpowered again."Wait a minute, I think there is a misunderstanding here..." Miller trailed off and Dea

    "Dad, call the bodyguards and make sure to keep an eye on Luke!" Dean told his father as he made his way to the front of the house where he parked his car."What's going on?" He asked following him."Mark managed to escape from the police. The first place he would be heading to is where Nadia is. I need to head there right now," Dean explained and his father nodded."Okay, be careful. I will call the police to make their way there too." His father said as he closed Dean's car door after he got in.Dean nodded and started his car starting to back up when the passenger door opened and Keith jumped inside."Think that I would let you go alone this time too?" He asked with a smirk."It's gonna be dangerous," Dean warned."The more reason I need to go with you," Keith insisted, "What are you waiting for?"Dean sighed and backed away from the spot making his way toward the penthouse. He sped through the street his car eating up the road between them. He had never regretted the distance bet

    Nadia opened her eyes as she felt someone lean against the bed beside her. Looking up, she found Dean smiling down at her the sunlight streaming through the window making him look as if there was a halo around his head.Groaning, she shidted to her back readying herself to cover her face with the blanket only for him to stop her with both arms."You need to wake up," He said softly."Said the guy who wore me out last night," She retorted with a sigh, "You're way too bright for me to look at, go away,"He chuckled finding her statement funny, even though she wasn't joking."It's already noon, you're going to sleep all day at this rate," He informed her but she simply shook her head stubbornly."I can't move... My muscles are sore," She complained.Dean smiled and leaned down against her pressing a kiss against her neck, right where he left a mark last night."Realy? Even though I went easy on you last night. I was having such a hard time holding back while you called out my name, in mo

    "Oh, it's finally here..." Nadia remarked as she walked past Dean at the kitchen counter. He nodded absently as he stared at the test making Nadia wonder for a moment if there was something wrong with it. Leaning over his shoulder, she could see the positive green letters standing out like neon lights in the darkness."It's positive," She stated."Yeah..." He said with a satisfied smile kissing the palm of her hand as he resumed staring at the paper. Nadia smiled shaking her head at the man, he was just way too cute. Ruffling his hair, she resumed walking toward Luke's room to see if he was ready."He should be here anytime now," She informed Dean who nodded again not moving from his spot.Nadia found Luke in a similar state to his father bent over his toy his shoes and socks only half worn."Luke! You're supposed to wear your socks. Our guests will be here any moment," She said with a smile."Who's our guest?" Luke asked as he finished wearing his socks."It's my father..." Nadia s

    "You..." Dean took an exasperated breath letting it out slowly..Nadia sat on the couch uncomfortable as she looked away from him. She was readying herself for another scolding when she felt a hand on her head softly patting it. Dean was looking at her with a gentle smile."If this is going to give you some peace of mind then by all means, let them meet. But I don't want you to do it at the expense of your feelings," Dean reassured her."I want Luke to meet him and know that he has a grandfather... But I can't bring myself to trust him. I don't believe that someone can change like that overnight..." She explained.Dean leaned back and she leaned against him snuggling into his arms."I always thought that it was strange that your father seemed to always think that he was the victim. It was as if he felt like he was betrayed by you but in fact it was Kate who was lying to him about you all the time. Perhaps he was never that bad of a person in the first place..." Dean said, then he corr

    Standing before the hole in the ground, Nadia was filled with so many thoughts and feelings. One of them was that she was probably a hypocrite standing there wearing black and listening intently to the prayers of a man who knew nothing.Another thought is that... Well... It was sunny. Nadia always had this conception that it never was sunny on funerals, it was always raining or gloomily grey. But no, it wasn't, it was sunny, and flowers were blooming around while butterflies were mating. Burds chirping and most of all... it was warm and pleasant.To sum it up, it was the weather that destroyed her conception of funerals...Nadia watched silently as they started lowering the coffin to the ground. The coffin was made from dark wood. One Kate would have hated. And decorated with white spider lilies. Kate hated white. She always said it wasn't a color. Although she would conveniently wear it whenever she felt like the situation would require from her to add a flare of innocence. Mainly w
