Violet’s back hit the mattress, the sheets soft beneath her, his body above her. His breathing had turned uneven, hot against her skin, every exhale grazing her like a spark.

The hunger in him was raw. Almost reckless.

And yet—his hands still held back.

“It’s okay,” she breathed. “You don’t have to be so careful.”

Julian’s mouth was already at her throat, teeth grazing, lips dragging down to her collarbone. His answer came muffled against her skin, low and rough.

His muscles were drawn tight, s

  • His Hidden Game   Allison x Marcus (14)

    Allison’s eyes went blank for a second. It felt like her heart had just dropped into a bottomless pit.“Dr. Jones… check again,” she said, her throat tight. “He kicked last night. There’s no way there’s no heartbeat.”Dr. Jones was the most respected OB-GYN in their hospital—and Allison’s own specialist. If anyone could be trusted right now, it was her.And Allison didn’t believe in that cold “survival of the fittest” bullshit anyway. From the moment she found out she was pregnant, she’d booked every test possible. Even after twenty weeks—when things were usually considered stable—she still came in every week for routine monitoring.This couldn’t be happening.“Sometimes the monitor just can’t pick it up right away,” Dr. Jones said gently, trying to calm her. “That doesn’t automatically mean there’s no heartbeat. It could be the baby’s position. Let’s do an ultrasound to confirm.”“Bring the ultrasound in,” the doctor told the nurse.A few minutes later, the machine was ready.The fam

    “Miss, we’re here. It’s raining pretty hard—give me a sec, I’ll grab an umbrella.”The driver’s voice pulled Allison back to reality. She blinked, focus snapping back. The light drizzle from earlier had turned into heavy rain, thick drops racing down the window.The door opened. The driver was already standing there with a big black umbrella. She stepped out slowly and looked up at the apartment building in front of her.It had only been a few months, but standing downstairs at Marcus’s place again felt like stepping into another lifetime.Ever since Richard asked her to “go see Marcus,” the thought had been stuck in her head. Fine. Just a vi

  • His Hidden Game   Allison x Marcus (12)

    Allison caught the earliest flight back to New York the next morning.She was surprisingly calm. Emily, on the other hand, still looked shaken even after they landed.“We should’ve brought a couple more managers on this trip,” Emily muttered as they walked through the terminal. “If there were more of us, Mr. Hill wouldn’t have dared pull that shit.”Allison let out a quiet sigh. “The company’s swamped because of the Medi AI project. And Mr. Beaumont doesn’t like meeting a crowd of unfamiliar faces. It made more sense for me to go alone.”She adjusted her coat. “Besides, a guy like Mr. Hill? If it wasn’t yesterday, it would’ve been some other time. He was going to try

  • His Hidden Game   Allison x Marcus (11)

    The meeting with Sofi was held at their headquarters, and it went smoothly from start to finish. Allison didn’t feel what people meant when they described them as “traditional” and “stubborn.”Sofi was a private, family-owned company. Most of the top roles were still held by family members. But the younger generation had stepped up. This round of talks was led by them, with the older generation present for support. The balance gave Allison a sense of stability—solid, calm, unified.It was exactly the kind of family-business model she secretly admired. Strong company. Strong family. Both intact.The newly appointed CEO, Mr. Beaumont, seemed genuinely impressed.“I didn’t expect Winthrop’s future successor to be such a

    The second she stepped out of the restaurant, Allison felt like her skin was crawling. She texted the materials to Emily and told her to handle all communication with Mr. Hill from now on.Most of the process could be delegated anyway. She didn’t need to see him again unless absolutely necessary. But once due diligence wrapped up and they locked in preliminary terms with the European manufacturer, she’d inevitably have to deal with him face-to-face again.She didn’t like it—but she’d handle it when it came.Two weeks later, background checks were basically done. Winthrop had tentatively secured cooperation with the French pharmaceutical company Sofi. Next came legal review, compliance, regulatory procedures—the usual grind.

  • His Hidden Game   Allison x Marcus (9)

    The list landed on Allison’s desk fast. She picked three names and had Emily reach out.Strangely—or maybe not so strangely—they all gave the same answer. The decision-makers were “out of the country.” End of year, conference season, sure. But the timing was too clean.Allison didn’t buy it for a second. Marcus had probably made a few calls.That narrowed her options.Emily tapped one name on the list. “This one’s well connected with several European pharma manufacturers. But… his reputation’s not great.”Allison’s eyes scanned the name. Mr. Hill.It rang a bell. A few seconds later she remembered. “Was

  • His Hidden Game   Ch30 - gold digger

    Ever since Violet had said she’d think about his offer, Edward had been visibly more animated—almost boyishly so. By the end of the event, he insisted on personally walking her downstairs.So when Jay pulled up to pick Violet up, he immediately spotted a man trailing close behind her. His posture s

  • His Hidden Game   Ch28 - Contradiction

    Julian eventually agreed to Violet’s request and dropped the theft charges against Benny and Polly. Still, since they’d technically violated public order, it fined them two thousand dollars each.After spending two nights in a holding cell, they walked out of the station grumbling.“Unbelievable. T

  • His Hidden Game   Ch27 - A doting dad

    “JESUS CHRIST—idiots. Surrounded by fucking idiots!” Marcus slammed a hand on his desk, still seething.He refused to believe that Julian—of all people—had suddenly turned into some faithful, reformed man. The guy had spent more than a decade playing around, and now he was supposed to have found mo

  • His Hidden Game   Ch26 - The stunt

    They walked out hand in hand, looking every bit the picture-perfect couple. Julian hadn’t told Craig to clear the reporters—he actually wanted to see what the hell kind of stunt the people behind this were trying to pull.Once they got in the car and the doors shut, their hands naturally drifted ap
