Happiness's POVThe door clicked shut behind my parents, and I finally let out the breath I was been holding. My legs felt weak, but I forced myself to stay upright until I heard the sound of their cab driving away.Only after then did I sink onto my couch, burying my face in my hands.That was too close.Dad’s suspicion was growing, and Mom wasn’t fooled either. She wasn’t pushing now, and it was only because she was waiting for me to come to her on my own.But I can't do that.Not now.I exhaled slowly, forcing myself to refocus. I needed to be careful, to make sure they didn’t dig any deeper.A sharp knock at the door made me startled.My pulse quickened. I wasn’t expecting anyone.I hesitated before standing up and making my way to the door. Peering through the peephole, I felt my stomach drop.Mason.I hesitated before unlocking the door and pulling it open just enough to see him. “What are you doing here?”He didn’t answer right away. Instead, he studied me, his sharp eyes scann

Chapter 52

Happiness POV I was half asleep when my phone started buzzing. Groaning, I fumbled for it, squinting at the bright screen.Uncle Max.My heart stuttered. Why was he calling me this early?A knot tightened in my stomach as I hesitated before answering. “Hello?”“Happiness.” Uncle Max’s voice was calm, but I could hear the undertone of something else. Something that made my nerves spike. “Are you home?”I sat up immediately, my sleepiness vanishing. “Yeah… why?”“There’s something we need to talk about, and It'll be better if we see. The Edisson's Home, right?”I clutched the phone tighter. “Yes. What is it about?”A pause. “Just be ready.”The call ended before I could ask anything else.I stared at my phone, my pulse hammering.Uncle Max never called unannounced. And the way he’d spoken… like he was preparing for something difficult.Panic clawed at my chest.Did he know?Had Dad called him? Had he already figured it out?Throwing off the blanket, I rushed to my room, pulling on a fr

Chapter 53

Happiness POV The rest of the day passed in a blur. I stayed in my apartment, trying to distract myself with schoolwork, but my mind kept drifting back to my conversation with Mason. And Uncle Max. And the growing weight of keeping this secret.By evening, I still felt restless. I needed air.Pulling on a jacket, I grabbed my phone and stepped outside. The cool breeze hit my face as I walked down the quiet street, my hands buried in my pockets.Maybe I was overthinking everything.Maybe Uncle Max’s question about Mason had been casual.But deep down, I knew better.I turned a corner, heading toward the small café near campus. I didn’t plan on staying long, just needed enough time to clear my head.But as I pushed open the door, my breath caught in my throat.Sitting at a corner table, talking in hushed voices, were Uncle Max and Mason.My stomach dropped.I barely managed to step back before they could see me. My heart pounded as I pressed against the wall outside, peeking through th

Chapter 54

Happiness POV I had just stepped out of the shower, a towel wrapped around me, when my phone buzzed on the nightstand. I wiped my hands hastily before picking it up.Mom.My stomach twisted. Mom doesn't call me directly, she prefers to send texts or let Dad handle any serious conversations.Something was wrong.Bracing myself, I answered. “ Hi Mom?”Her voice was clipped, controlled. Too controlled. “Happiness, you need to come home.”I froze, gripping the towel tighter. “What? Why? Is everyone okay?”“Yes. Your Dad and I need to speak with you. In person.”A cold chill spread through me. They knew. They had found out about my relationship.I forced a weak chuckle. “Mom, I have classes to…”“This is more important than your classes.”My heart sank. Mom never interrupted my education, no matter how upset she was. If she was doing it now, whatever they had learned was serious.I swallowed hard. “Did… did something happen?”There was a pause. Then, “We’ll talk when you get here.” The f

Chapter 55

Mason’s POVPeter narrowed his eyes. “Love?” He scoffed. “Love is easy to say, Mason. But it doesn’t pay bills. It doesn’t build a stable future.”I nodded, unfazed. “You’re right. Love alone isn’t enough. But commitment, effort, and respect? That’s what matters.”His jaw tightened. “And you think you can give her that?”“I know I can.”Silence stretched between us.Then, he leaned forward, voice low. “Tell me, Mason. Where do you see yourself with her in five years?”I didn’t hesitate. “Married, or about to.”Happiness sucked in a sharp breath beside me. I felt her grip on my hand tighten, but I didn’t look away from her father.Peter’s gaze flickered, just for a second. He wasn't expecting my answer.His fingers drummed against his arm. “And kids? A family?”“When she’s ready.”His eyes narrowed. “So, you’d wait?”“For as long as it takes.”His wife let out a soft sigh. I could tell she was beginning to waver. Peter, however, wasn’t done yet.“You’re a detective, Mason.” His tone tu

Chapter 56

Mason's POV The morning sunlight filtered through the curtains, casting a warm glow across the room. Happiness stirred beside me, her face still relaxed in sleep. It was a sight I'd never get tired of. Her peaceful expression, the way her breathing remained steady, unbothered by the world outside.For so long, we had lived in secrecy. Now, we didn’t have to hide so she's back in my house. I shifted slightly, careful not to wake her, and simply watched. The weight of the conversation with her parents still lingered, but it didn’t feel suffocating. They also didn't know she's staying with I'm protecting my head. I snickered to myself at that thought.There was tension, but there was also progress. Her father hadn’t fully accepted me, but he hadn’t rejected me either.That’s something, and I'm holding onto it.Happiness stirred in her sleep, then slowly blinked awake. Her eyes found mine, and a sleepy smile tugged at her lips. “You’re staring.”“Guilty,” I murmured, brushing my fingers

Chapter 57

HAPPINESS'S POVThe media storm was not just on the. They followed us everywhere. By the second day, reporters were staking out Mason’s house. They waited outside cafes, hoping to catch us. I could no longer go out without someone recognizing me, asking invasive questions, or snapping pictures.It was suffocating.I couldn't go to class because of misleading rumors eroding among my colleagues which could lead to skepticism. I can't face Ash and Maria either. I just hope they're taking the information well. My phone rang, bringing me out of my thoughts.I picked the call and my mom’s voice was sharp with worry. “Happiness, come home.”Dad took the phone next. “Now.”No explanations. No arguments. Just a demand.Mason had been on high alert ever since the media exposure, but this was different.“They want us to come stay with them,” I whispered after hanging up. My hands trembled slightly, gripping hesitated. “I don’t know… but I think we have to.”He exhaled, rubbing his jaw. It wasn

Chapter 58

Happiness’s POVThe next day, we set out back to LA. The tension in my parent's house is too much, and I had to tell Mason to let us leave already. The stress is beginning to affect me, and I slept through the plane ride. The drive back to Mason’s house was eerily quiet.I kept staring out the window, watching the city blur past, but my mind was trapped in the confrontation with my parents. My father’s voice echoed in my head. “Do you even understand what love means?”I had never been more sure of something in my life. But the way he said it, the way he looked at me, made doubt creep in, poisoning my certainty.I sighed. So much for being sure. Mason’s grip on the wheel was tight, his jaw set in that hard, unreadable way he did when he was thinking too much.The weight of everything pressed down on my chest. The media’s relentless obsession, my parents’ disapproval, the way Mason had to defend me as if our love was some kind of crime.And it wasn’t over.I exhaled shakily, pressing

Chapter 59

HAPPINESS'S POVOur lips quickly found one another. Our bodies spoke a language of their own, a plea that they should not be parted so soon. Mason adjusted my legs, positioning me to straddle him as I braced myself on his shoulders, my breasts hanging just above him, while his cock rested beneath the soft slick heat of my pussy. Gripping the flesh of my thighs, he coaxed me into motion, guiding the rhythm of my back and forth over him. Mason rubbed his thumbs over my nipples, watching them pucker in response. Once I sank down to the hilt, I paused, savoring the sensation. With his gentle urge, I began moving again. My arms were on either side of his head for support, while his hands found my hips gripping it tight. With measured movement, I raised and lowered myself on his cock, each slow slick glide heavenly torture. Mason groaned as I moved faster, and my eyes closed shut, my teeth bit into my lower lip, and my nails digged into his shoulders. “Yes, my love. Like that.” He growl

HAPPINESS'S POVThe relief of having Ash and Maria back on my side was short-lived. Because as soon as I settled into the car beside Mason, my phone buzzed.At first, I ignored it, but then it kept vibrating, notifications piling up one after the other. My heart clenched. I didn't want to look. I really didn't. But Mason, ever the observant detective, had already caught on."You should check it," he said, keeping his eyes on the road.I swallowed hard, unlocking my phone. My stomach twisted as I saw my name trending. Again."The age gap is insane. What does she even talk about with him?""She must have been a kid when they met. This is so creepy.""Gold digger much?""Detective or not, he should know better than to date a college student."My hands trembled as I scrolled through the endless flood of opinions, most of them harsh, picking apart our relationship like it was some sort of scandalous crime.I hadn't even posted about Mason publicly, yet here I was, dissected for everyone’s
