Ava's POV Marcus kept his strong arms wrapped around me tight in that hidden hallway. My body still shook from everything that had just happened. Derek was yelling for security somewhere down the corridor, his voice echoing like thunder. Damien and Lucas burst in, their shirts torn and blood streaking their faces and arms. They looked ready for war."We have to move now," Marcus said urgently, his hand on my back. "Derek is losing it. There is a secret room in the east wing. Follow me.""Secret room?" I whispered, my voice shaky. "What the hell is going on?"Lucas grabbed my hand, his piercing eyes serious even with blood on his cheek. "No time to explain everything. Trust us, Ava. We will keep you safe."Damien wiped blood from his lip and grinned despite the pain. "Come on, beautiful. Adventure time. You okay? That bastard did not hurt you, did he?""He almost did," I said, squeezing Lucas's hand. "Marcus stopped him. But you two look terrible. Are you hurt bad?""Nothing we cannot

Ava's POV I never imagined one locked door could change everything so fast.The click echoed in my bedroom like a gunshot. Marcus stood there, tall and confident, his dark eyes locked on mine with that same hungry look from the hotel suite. My back pressed against the bed frame. The red rose lay forgotten on the sheets behind me."Marcus, what the hell are you doing?" I whispered sharply, my voice shaking even though heat already flooded my body. "Derek is right downstairs. He could walk up any second."He took one slow step closer, a dark smile playing on his lips. "Then we should not waste time talking, Ava. All night at dinner I watched you squirm every time I looked at you. I know you felt the same pull I did."I held up a hand but it trembled. "This is crazy. You three cannot be here. My husband is hosting you. This is his house."Marcus closed the distance in two strides and pulled me against his hard chest. "His house. But right now you belong to us." Before I could argue he k

Ava's POV The morning after that insane hotel suite, I drove home in a daze. My body still hummed from everything they did to me, but I forced myself to push it down deep. I took a long shower, scrubbed every inch of my skin, and put on my usual perfect wife face. No one could know what happened. Especially not Derek. I spent the whole day cleaning rooms I did not need to clean and answering emails I did not care about, trying to act like the loyal housewife he expected.By evening I felt almost normal again. Almost.The front door opened with a loud click. Derek walked in wearing his expensive suit, smiling like he had not been balls deep in another woman the night before. "Ava, darling. How was your day?" he asked in that fake charming voice he used when other people might hear.I stood in the hallway and forced a small smile. "It was fine. Yours?""Busy. Very busy. Actually, I have great news." He loosened his tie and walked past me without even a kiss on the cheek. "I am hosting

Ava's POVI caught my husband balls deep in another woman, laughing like my heartbreak was the funniest joke he had ever heard."You bastard!" I screamed, my voice cracking as I stood frozen in the doorway of our luxurious bedroom. The scent of expensive perfume and sweat hit me hard. Derek did not even stop right away. He kept thrusting behind the blonde woman bent over our silk sheets, his hands gripping her hips tight while he looked over at me with zero shame."Ava, what the hell are you doing here?" he snapped, finally pulling out but not bothering to cover himself. "This is none of your business. Go downstairs or something.""None of my business? This is our bed, Derek! Our home that I have been trapped in for years!" Tears stung my eyes but I blinked them back fast. My hands shook as I clutched the doorframe. "I have cooked for you, smiled for your clients, and stayed loyal while you treated me like I was invisible. And now this? In our own bed?"The blonde woman actually laugh
