The Secretary's Spell Chapter 69
The sun peeped through the blinds, leaving low-cut rays of light to gently illuminate the room as Rose woke up to find Nathan still sleeping beside her. It was such a serene morning, greatly unlike the tumbles and falls she had been going through for the past weeks. Their relationship deepened on turns she did not have any idea about, and the promise of their future was at one time exhilarating and daunting.Slipping out of bed with a minimum of noise, Rose didn't want to wake Nathan. She tiptoed into the kitchen and started preparing breakfast. That was comforting—a familiar routine, normal. While she brewed coffee and made a simple breakfast of eggs and toast, her mind began to slide again back to their conversations of late regarding the future. They had been open and honest with each other regarding their hopes and dreams, and she felt this renewed clarity of mind and committed spirit.As soon as Nathan stirred and moved into the kitchen, he wrapped his arms around her and greeted

The morning sun infiltrated gently through the curtains, bathing the bedroom in its warm golden rays. Nathan and Rose stirred in their sleep as the light entered the room, slowly rousing them from slumber. Nathan, who was generally up early, looked over to see Rose slowly open her eyes to smile at him. It was these kinds of calm, peaceful mornings together that became another one of a long list of traditions so very dear to them in their relationship."Good morning, Rose," Nathan whispered, gently sweeping a stray lock of hair from her face. "How did you sleep?"Rose's eyes flickered open, and she smiled at him with a warm, comfortable smile. "Good morning, Nathan. I slept wonderfully. How about you?"Nathan bent to her and pressed a soft kiss to her forehead. "I couldn't ask for a better start to my day."They lay in bed for a few more moments, just listening to the silence and being near each other. But all too soon, Nathan's phone buzzed on the nightstand, chirping a happy greeting

The morning rays of sunlight crept through the curtain, across the room, and into the bedroom to ease Rose awake. Her eyes opened to Nathan's peaceful face beside her. He had fallen asleep with his arm protectively stretched over her as it had become habitual for him in the past two months. She smiled at the sight of him.Rose eased herself out of his embrace and tried not to disturb him, tiptoeing into the kitchen to surprise Nathan with a special breakfast. She found herself lost in thought while preparing fresh pastries and brewing coffee, reflecting upon her relationship and its journey. They had been able to survive many trials and tribulations, share many triumphs with each other—she felt such gratitude for this journey they had embarked upon together.While she worked, Rose thought back on the discussions during the past weeks about their future. Nathan had become more forthcoming with his dreams and aspirations, and he did seem to have her as part of his life in most of those

She turned to the side to find Nathan sleeping beside her, his features softened in repose. The sight of him, peaceful and serene, was very warming and affected her dearly.From the bed, Rose quietly eased herself up, careful not to wake up Nathan.

She turned to see him already awake, his gaze tenderly following the dance of sunlight across the room.

The word-thin wedding gown was airy, made out of delicate lace and silk, stretching across her figure in a lithe way that then fell into a soft, cascading train. Her beautiful hair had soft curls that would be pinned at the back, with a simple but breathtaking tiara to hold it in place and catch the light so beautifully. She also had a soft veil, just slightly over her face, to add tha

Nathan was working behind his mahogany desk, going through his notes with great care. Rose was at her desk facing him, doing her own research in her documents and emails, searching for information."Rose, take a look at this," Nathan said, breaking the silence. He handed her a folder filled with documents. "I dug up some interesting information from my conversations at the gala. It seems there might be a connection between the recent financial discrepancies and a certain group of investors."She took the folder and turned the pages. "This is big," Rose said, eyes wide. "We

Nathan asked me, his eyes flicking around the room.Rose twirled the intricate necklace about her neck. "Ready as I'll ever be. We need to be strategic tonight—make the right connections and gathering useful intel without raising suspicion."Nathan nodded, his eyes thinning a little as he surveyed th

There was a hum of activity in the conference room, where the team had gauged for a necessary briefing. Nathan and Rose fronted the table, their faces showing a combination of fatigue and determination. It had reached a very crucial point in the investigation, and every upcoming move would turn out to be significant in coming up with the whole scope of violation and all those who were involved in it."Thank you all for coming on such short notice," Nathan started off, the steadiness of his voice come from he had thought over this speech many times during the day. "We have achieved much in the past few days, but we are now at a very critical point. We must lock in our plan of attack and complete the next phase.Rose stepped to the front, surprisingly confident for someone who's been up for a day and a half and under some hard, very hard, pressure. "We have the manipulated data recovered and followed one lead that might mean a big breakthrough. It looks like our case is about to overlap

Her fingers were running on the keyboard, typing as fast as they could while going through the remaining pieces in the puzzle. The recent breakthroughs had been promising, but there were still loose ends to tie up. Nathan smiled at her focus and dedication; she'd been his anchor through all this turmoil."Nathan, I've found something you might want to see," Rose's voice broke through his thoughts.He looked up, immediately interested. "What is it?"Rose walked over to his desk, setting a stack of documents in front of him. "These

In the past few days, they had uncovered some things that moved them closer to unwrapping the truth, and things could get very personal.

Her steadfast support and encouragement were touching throughout the investigation, and it was as clear as daylight that the role she was going to play in their journey was far from over. His eyes wandered to the other side of the room, where she was working at her desk, poring over with furrows on her brow."Nathan, we need to talk about what happens now," Andrew's voice cut into Nathan's reverie. "We got some new information in—a real bombshell."Nathan nodded and laid aside the report he had been perusing. "Le

The rain had begun pounding against his windshield as Nathan cruised around the city. Its cadence was almost soothing against the turmoil brewing inside. The lead from the previous night could possibly take them to a real turning point in their investigation, and Nathan would see it through no matter what. Added to the weight of the ongoing breach, with personal stakes now involved, this moment became critical.As he neared the address that Andrew had given him, Rose continued to creep into Nathan's mind. Her constant reassurance during the probe felt like a lighthouse in the darkness, and he could not help feeling they were very close to something of real significance. The stakes had become personal as much as professional, something he had not considered from the beginning, and Nathan felt himself more committed than ever to closing the breach and securing their future.Nathan parked in front of the nondescript building, then took a deep breath. It looked like an older building, and

Though aware that the information he had been given could be pivotal, he needed to carefully assess the situation and further strategize on their next move.Rose was already at her desk when he walked in, relaxed and professional despite the late night she, too, had pulled off. She turned her face toward him, offering a reassuring smile, with her eyes speaking volumes between relief and anxiety."Good morning, Nathan. How was it last night?" she asked, her voice soft but loaded with interest.Deep breath; thanks to her support, Nathan could do so. "Morning, Rose. It's been a long night, but we've finally got some new information. Looks like this breach is much bigger and more complicated than what we thought. I'm going to go through everythi
