I text my driver asking him to get the car ready before jumping into the elevator. | Minutes later, I'm in the underground parking lot. | “Mr. Wood,” he bows slightly while opening the car door for me.

I give him a nod as I enter. He gets in and we start moving.

| GABRIEL WOOD IS NO LONGER ON THE | MARKET WHO IS THE LUCKY LADY THAT GOT GABRIEL WOOD TO PUT A RING ON IT? | On and on they went. Some of the | theories they had were stupid, while some had some truth in them.

When we get to apartment building, I shut off my phone before getting out.

After biding my driver goodnight, I head straight for my home.

I'm surprised when I find Harper in the living room waiting for me.

“You're finally home,” she says distractedly. “Have you seen the gossip columns? Some of the things they're saying are utterly ridiculous.”

chuckle, “Yeah, but it doesn’t matter. Is Lilly asleep? How was her first day?” After removing my shoes, I walk barefoot to the kitchen to get a glass of water.

I “Yes, she’s already asleep. She could | barely keep her eyes open. And you were right when you told me not to worry, she had a great day” she says, following me to the kitchen.

“That’s good” “Definitely” she mumbles. “Can you believe this? Apparently, I had to bribe you to marry me. Here's another one, | threatened and forced you to marry me because why else would you settle down?” I smirk at her righteous anger. If they only knew that it was the other way around. That I am the one who threatened her into marrying me.

Seeing her focus on the tablet, I pull it

She fumbles with her hands, as if she’s nervous. “I wanted to say thank you for what you did today. You could have just ignored it and let everything play out, but you didn’t.” “You don’t have to thank me, Harper.

You're my fucking wife and I took vows to protect you.” She narrows her eyes at me and I know what she’s thinking. I could punch myself right now.

I move forward, stepping into her space, “I know I was a shitty husband before,

i but I was an immature and stupid boy.

Things are different this time, I'm different, and I plan to do things ( differently.” There were questions swimming in her eyes, but all I could see at the moment | were her red lips.

Almost in a trance that I’m sure she cast, | Iean forward and kiss her. Just like I imagined, her lips are soft.

Her taste fills me, and fuck! I could get addicted to it.

I coax and tease her until she finally opens up, and I deepen the kiss. The jolt that goes through me at the contact of our tongues meshing almost brings me to her. Kissing a woman has never felt this good.

All too soon, she pulls away. She stares at me speechless and confused before turning around without another word.

-— , Iwatch her leave, before she disappears. | stay frozen on my spot as the kiss replays in my head over and over again, and the taste of lips lingers. She tasted like | heaven.

I thought this marriage would be easy, | but Iam starting to realize that I'm definitely fucked.
