I stirred awake to a sensation so blissful, so warm, that I thought I was still dreaming. Soft lips brushed along my bare shoulder, trailing a path of heat down my spine, sending tiny shivers racing across my bare skin. After making love into the early hours of the morning, we both slept naked in each other’s arms.

I let out a sigh, somewhere between contentment and need, as the lips ventured lower, followed by the featherlight touch of his fingers gliding over my hip.

A slow, indulgent kiss pressed against the dip of my back. Then another. My body arched instinctively, drawn to his touch, my skin buzzing with anticipation. A deep chuckle rumbled from behind me, sending another wave of warmth curling in my stomach.

"Liam," I whispered, my voice still thick with sleep.

His lips brushed my ear as his hand slid up my thigh, his touch both possessive and reverent. "Morning, beautiful," he murmured, the huskiness in his voice making my stomach flutter.

    Liam let out a curse as he read the statement Dan had released. “That bastard doesn’t just know when to stop,” he muttered.I couldn’t believe this. This was low, even for Dan. Then again, he had always been selfish. He had never cared about how his actions affected me as long as he came out looking like the perfect husband. I should have known he would go to any length to spite me. But I never thought he would drag me through the mud like this—turning me into a villain for the whole world to see.Liam placed my phone on his desk and reached for me, holding my face, his thumbs brushing away the last of my tears. “Amber,” he said, his voice calm but firm. “Don’t worry. Everything is going to be okay.”I let out a humorless laugh, shaking my head. “You don’t understand, Liam.” My voice wavered as I gestured helplessly toward my phone on the desk. “People are tearing me apart online.

    AmberThere was a time when I loved him with everything I had, and thought he loved me too. I was so sure of us, so sure of him. But now…I wasn’t sure anymore. It’s hard to believe you’re loved when you’re constantly being treated like a maid in your own home.There are some days I try to convince myself that Dan still loves me, but I later get to realize that’s all a show for the public’s approval. My husband lives off it.I’m fumbling with the zipper of my dress when Dan storms into my bedroom, his voice already rising as he calls out my name.“Amber!” Dan’s voice booms with anger. “Are you still not ready yet? We’re going to be late for the gala! What the hell is taking you so long?” His words are sharp, cutting into me like a thousand tiny knives. They always do.“I’m almost done,” I reply, my voice trembling as I finally get around to zipping my dress. I’d chosen one of the dresses Dan had Lilian his personal shopper bring me.

    AmberI find myself staring into familiar eyes. It’s Liam—my high school sweetheart whom I thought I was never going to see again. Am I hallucinating?For a second, I wonder if I’m dreaming, but he seems just as real. The same look of surprise mirrors on his face, and then he says my name, his voice warm and steady. Just as I remembered it to be.“Amber?” His voice is filled with shock.“Liam?”“Are you alright?" he asks, his voice laced with concern.I nod, still shaken, suddenly aware of where we are. People are starting to look, glancing curiously at us. I step away from his hold, my heart fluttering. The last thing I want is for Dan to see us like this.“Liam… is it really you?” I ask, breathless.He chuckles, that same charming smile spreading across his face. "In the flesh and blood," he replies.“You’re the last person I expected to see here,” I can’t help but smile, seeing him after such a long time is a pleasant surprise.He nods. “Me too.

    Liam.I can't shake her from my mind. After all these years, seeing her again tonight was like ripping open an old wound that never fully healed. I thought I’d moved on, buried those feelings somewhere deep enough that they couldn’t touch me anymore.But the moment she looked up at me, every emotion I’d worked so hard to forget came flooding back.Breaking up with her is still my worst mistake. I should have fought for us; I should never have allowed my work to get in the way between us. I was a fool. A big one. A few years ago, after my graduation, I wanted to reach out and reconnect, hoping to get back with her, but that was when I found out that she’s now married, so I’d convinced myself that keeping my distance was for the best. I figured her being married was my sign that she’d moved on, and it was time I did the same.But seeing her tonight, with that hollow look behind her smile, made me question everything. There was something about her tonight—something that gnawed at me lon

    LiamIt’s been almost a week, and no matter how much I try, I can’t shake Amber from my mind. I keep replaying that moment at the gala—the look in her eyes, that hint of something deeper beneath her polished smile.I’ve tried convincing myself that I imagined it, but it doesn’t add up. Amber may be married, but I know her well enough to sense when something’s off.Since I didn’t get a chance to grab her number before her husband swooped in, and she doesn’t have any form of social media presence, it seems like every attempt to reach her is a dead end. So I’ve thrown myself into work, spending more time than usual on-site as I oversee renovations at one of the hotels we recently acquired.I’m in the middle of reviewing some blueprints with the project manager when I hear it—a laugh, soft and familiar, one I could recognize anywhere. I turn toward the sound, and there she is, sitting in the hotel’s restaurant with three other women. They’re leaning in, chatting intently, as Amber jots do

His long legs make it hard for me to keep up, so I quicken my pace, my heart thudding with the familiar dread. Mom’s text came this morning, and I almost told her not to come, afraid of Dan’s reaction. But I couldn’t keep avoiding her. Three canceled visits in four months were already too much.Dan pauses, hand on the car door, eyes narrowing with irritation. “Why? Haven’t I made it clear that I don’t want her here?” His voice is sharp, cutting through the morning silence.“She’s my mother, Dan. It’s just lunch. She won’t stay long, I promise.” I hold my breath, waiting for the verdict.A muscle twitches in his jaw before he lets out a sigh. “Fine. But make sure she’s gone before I get home.”I nod quickly, relief flooding me as he slides into the car.

It was hard but we made it to the end of workdayThe ride back to the penthouse was quiet, but there was an unspoken tension crackling between us. As he drove, Liam's hand rested on my thigh, his thumb tracing slow, lazy circles against my skin. It was an absentminded touch, but it sent shivers down my spine. I placed my hand over his, feeling the warmth of his palm beneath mine. It was such a simple act, yet it felt so intimate.My mind kept drifting back to what he had said that morning. My girlfriend. He had called me his girlfriend. The words kept replaying in my head, twisting and turning in my thoughts. Should I bring it up? Should I ask him if he really meant it?

He was still shirtless, his toned back and strong arms flexing with every movement. The sight of him cooking, completely at ease in the kitchen, did something strange to my heart.Liam turned just then, catching me staring. A cute smile spread across his face, his dark eyes filled with warmth.“Coffee?” he asked.“Yes please.” I smiled, tucking a stray strand of hair behind my ear. "Need any help?"He shook his head, lowering the heat on the stove before reaching for a mug. "Nope, I got it." He poured me a cup of coffee, fixing it just the way I liked, before handing it to me. "You just sit there and relax."I took the mug, warmth spreading through my fingers as his fingers brushed mine. "Thank you."Liam leaned in and kissed my nose before turning back to the stove.

As I slowly opened my eyes, I found him already awake, watching me with a soft, content expression.“Good morning,” he murmured, his voice husky from sleep. Oh God, I love his morning voice.“Good morning.” A slow smile spread across my lips as I snuggled deeper into his embrace. “So… all of that wasn’t a dream?” I whispered, still half-dazed from sleep and the surreal nature of waking up beside him.Liam chuckled, his chest rumbling against mine as he leaned in to press a soft, lingering kiss on my lips. “No, sweetheart.
