Chapter 11: The Investigation

Suzanne's pov:The next morning, I stirred awake, my body still aching from the intensity of the night before. A lazy smile played on my lips as I stretched, reaching across the bed, expecting to feel Dominic beside me.But the bed was empty.My smile faded as my eyes fluttered open. The space beside me was cold, as if he had been gone for a while. I sat up, my gaze scanning the room, only to hear the faint sound of running water.The bathroom door was slightly open, and through the gap, I saw Dominic step out, a towel wrapped loosely around his waist, droplets of water still clinging to his chiselled chest.His dark eyes met mine, but there was no softness, no trace of last night’s passion. Just the usual unreadable expression.“Good morning,” I said hesitantly, watching him as he ran a hand through his damp hair.He barely acknowledged me. “Go to your room.”My heart sank, but I masked it quickly, nodding stiffly before slipping out of the bed and making my way to my room.A short w

Chapter 12: “I'm sorry”

Suzanne's pov:He didn’t answer immediately, just watched me with those dark, unreadable eyes. Finally, he said, "I told them to leave."I swallowed hard. "Why? What is going on?" I strode a little towards him.He stepped closer, his gaze never leaving mine. "Because I wanted us to be alone." A chill ran down my spine, but it wasn’t fear. It was something else. It was, confusion.My breath caught as his hands reached for me. I tried to resist, my mind still reeling from what I had seen at the café, but his touch was too familiar, too intoxicating. My body betrayed me, melting under his touch even as my mind screamed at me to push him away.I felt his breath ghost over my skin, his fingers tracing slow, deliberate patterns on my arms, and my waist. "You’re mine, Suzanne," he murmured, his voice laced with something dark, something possessive.“If I am yours, then why do you see other women?” I blattered out. I could see the shock on his face as he pulled backwards. “What do you mea

Chapter 13: Protecting The Woman I Own

Dominic’s pov:Seated properly on the bed, I exhaled, my eyes locked onto hers. "I haven't been with anyone since we got married. I’m telling you the truth."Suzanne remained silent, her expression unreadable. I leaned forward slightly, my voice steady but firm. “And I'm not ready to talk about Rachel. I would really appreciate it if you could just trust me and let me handle things."I waited, watching the emotions flicker across her face. Finally, she sighed. "Okay."Before I could say anything else, the door creaked open, and Kai walked in, rubbing his sleepy eyes. I smiled at him, giving Suzanne one last look before standing up and leaving the room.Suzanne's pov:"Hey, baby," I said, my voice softening as I pulled Kai onto the bed beside me. "What have you been up to lately?""Well," he drawled, a sleepy grin spreading across his little face, "my new dad has been buying me a lot of toys. He even got me the LEGO I asked you for last Christmas!"I froze, my breath catching as I lis

Chapter 14: Cold, Yet Protective

Dominic’s pov:Dinner at home was always very quiet. Not because it had to be, but because I preferred it that way. I ate, I left. Suzanne never tried to force conversation. She had learned quickly.But tonight was different.Tonight, I wanted to talk.Suzanne sat across from me, focused on her plate, as usual. Kai sat beside her, swinging his legs, too distracted by his new toy car to eat properly.I leaned back in my chair and set my fork down, the sound made Suzanne glance up. I missed the way her shoulders stiffened slightly, like she wasn’t sure what to expect.“I’ve made arrangements for Kai’s school,” I said.Suzanne blinked. “What?”“A private school,” I continued, keeping my tone even. “One of the best. He’ll have a personal driver, a bodyguard, and a nanny to ensure his safety.”Her fork hovered over her plate. “You… you already arranged everything?”“Yes.”She looked stunned. “Dominic, that’s—”“The best option for him,” I interrupted. “Security is non-negotiable.”She hes

Chapter 15: Possible Leak

Suzanne's pov:Tavon had posted a picture of me.My face was all over the internet, accompanied by words that made my blood run cold.“Meet the biggest gold digger and whore. My ex-wife, who wasted years of my life, now suddenly married to none other than billionaire Dominic Khan. Guess she finally hit the jackpot. The funny thing is, she’s still legally my wife. So tell me, Suzanne, when did bigamy become legal?.”The comments were a mix of shock, judgment, and crude speculation.I gripped my phone tighter, my vision blurring at the edges. And then I saw the worst part.Tavon had named Dominic. He had exposed my marriage.Everyone knew now.A shaky breath escaped my lips as realization sank in. This wasn’t just a social media scandal... This was war!!!My hands trembled as I scrolled through the comments, my breathing uneven. The screen felt like it was burning in my palm. The message he sent wasn’t enough, and now this?Pacing the room, I could barely think straight. My name was ev

Chapter 16: “Rachel Is Out Of The Country”

Chapter 12: “Rachel Is Out Of The Country”Dominic's pov:I stilt, my ears alert to what Desmond was about to say. “My team discovered that Stella had made a post on the day of your wedding day.”An awkward silence lingered on both sides before he continued. “She wrote that her bestie was now Mrs Khan.” my forehead creased and my jaw twitched in anger and disappointment. “I really thought there was a spy in your household, but thankfully there isn't.” He added.“Alright then, thank you for being competent and reliable once again,” I complimented him, and ended the call before he could say another word.I decided to take a stroll into the big garden in my courtyard. Walking out through the hallways of my mansion I heard a soft moan which made me halt.Taking a sharp breath I walked towards Suzanne's room, where I suspected the sound to have come from. When I neared her door I heard another moan but this time there sounded like sobs, so I pushed in without thinking about knocking.“Za

Chapter 17: Craving Her

Suzanne's pov:I stiffened as a voice came from behind me.“What is going on here?”I turned sharply, my heart still racing from the secretary’s strange reaction. Standing there, arms crossed and watching me with an amused smirk was Desmond.“Desmond,” I breathed out, still trying to process everything.He stepped closer, glancing at the nervous secretary before looking back at me. “What are you doing here?”I squared my shoulders, forcing myself to sound casual. “I came to see Dominic.”Desmond’s smirk deepened. “Let me guess, this was Stella’s idea?”I let out a small laugh, shaking my head. “It was more of my idea. Stella just gave me the motivation.”He chuckled, shaking his head. “Figures.”Before I could say anything else, Desmond gestured toward Dominic’s office. “Come on, then. Let’s go see the boss.”We walked in together, still laughing at our little exchange, but the second I stepped into Dominic’s office and saw him sitting behind his massive desk, the laughter died in my

Chapter 18: I Am in Control

Dominic’s pov:As we stepped out of the office, the cool evening air barely registered. Suzanne was saying something, her voice soft, and casual, but the words blurred together, drowned by the storm in my mind.Why did I let the secretary go? Why did I listen to her?That wasn’t me.I didn’t listen to anyone. I didn’t bend. Yet the moment Suzanne spoke, something in me… hesitated. I should’ve been furious, should’ve made an example of that idiot for interrupting me. But instead, I let him walk away.Because she asked.My jaw tightened. I hated how easily she had swayed me. Had it been anyone else, I wouldn’t have given it a second thought. I would have issued the punishment without blinking. But with her? It was different.Dangerously different…I barely noticed when we reached the car. She slid into the passenger seat, her silk dress gliding effortlessly against the leather. I forced my eyes forward and started the engine. The low purr of the car filled the tense silence as I pulle

Chapter 19: A Line Between Us

Suzanne’s pov:The morning sunlight streamed through the windows, bathing the dining table in warm gold. The air smelled of rich coffee, buttered toast, and fresh fruit. It should have been a comforting start to the day. But instead, an unsettling silence settled between us.Dominic sat across from me, his posture rigid, his movements calculated. He wasn’t reading the paper like usual. He wasn’t looking at me, either.I tightened my grip around my fork, pushing my eggs around the plate.It was strange.Last night, I’d seen another side of him, a man burning with a different type of desire, one who didn’t just take but gave. I had seen his hunger, his restraint, the cracks in his armour. For once, I thought I was getting somewhere.But now? Now, it was like none of it had happened.I swallowed down my frustration. Maybe I was imagining it. Maybe I was reading too much into things.I tested the waters carefully.“You look like you barely slept,” I said softly, my eyes on him. “Is ever

Chapter 20: Unraveling Threads

Suzanne’s pov:The rest of the day dragged on in agonizing slowness. Even after Stella left, her words lingered in my mind. Dominic was avoiding me. That was clear. But what wasn’t clear was why. Why was he reacting like this? What exactly had changed?I paced around the house, restless. Dominic still hadn’t come out from his study, and I refused to go knocking on his door like some desperate woman begging for his attention. I had my pride.By evening, I curled up on the couch with my phone, mindlessly scrolling through social media. That’s when I saw it.A picture.Dominic and a young woman.As I looked closer, my stomach dropped. It was Rachel.They stood close together, him in a sharp suit, his hand resting lightly on her shoulder. She was beautiful, her smile warm, her eyes gleaming with admiration.The caption beneath the image read: Rachel and Dominic Khan spotted at a private charity event overseas last year. The ever-elusive CEO has always kept his personal affairs private, b
