MARRIED TO THE DEVIL BILLIONAIRE FOR REVENGE Chapter 193: The Therapy Reunion
The phone call comes on a Tuesday afternoon.It's Dr. Voss. Her voice is warm but different somehow. There's something in her tone that suggests this isn't a clinical call. This is personal."I'm retiring," she says without preamble. "At the end of the year. And I'm having a retirement party. I want you and Dominic to come. I want you to speak about what therapy did for you."I set down what I'm doing."You're retiring?" I ask."I've been doing this for forty years," she says. "I think it's time. I think it's time to let the next generation of therapists do the work.""What do you want us to talk about?" I ask."The truth," she says. "What our work together actually meant. How it changed you. What you're doing now because of what we did in that office."We say yes immediately. Of course we say yes. Dr. Voss is the person who guided us through the hardest work of our lives. The person who taught us how to communicate. The person who held space for our transformation.Dominic is quiet w
MARRIED TO THE DEVIL BILLIONAIRE FOR REVENGE Chapter 192: Alexander at University
The envelope arrives on a Thursday in March.It's from the University of Michigan. It's thick, which is the universal sign of acceptance. Alexander comes home from school and he sets it on the kitchen counter and he just stares at it for a long time before he opens it.I watch him from across the kitchen where I'm making tea.He's nervous. After years of knowing exactly what he wanted to do with his life, he's suddenly facing the reality that it might actually happen. He might actually get to study psychology. He might actually get to become the healer he set out to become years ago when he decided that understanding trauma and recovery was his calling.He opens the envelope slowly.He reads the letter silently. His expression doesn't change. His hands don't shake. He just reads the words that say he's been accepted to the program. That he's been accepted to study psychology with a focus on trauma and recovery. That the university wants him.When he finishes reading, he sets the lette
MARRIED TO THE DEVIL BILLIONAIRE FOR REVENGE Chapter 191: Twenty-Five Years Planned
Twenty-five years feels significant in a way that twenty didn't.Twenty years felt like a milestone. It felt like proof that we'd survived something and built something from the survival. But twenty-five years feels like a statement. It feels like we're no longer proving anything to anyone. We're just living a life that we've chosen so many times that the choosing has become invisible.I bring it up to Dominic on a Saturday morning in the garden.He's pruning the roses. He does this every weekend now. He tends them the way he tends everything that matters. With attention. With consistency. With the understanding that things grow when you show up for them."What do you want to do for our twenty-five year anniversary?" I ask.He sets down the pruning shears and he looks at me."I don't know yet," he says. "What do you want to do?""Something bigger than twenty," I tell him. "Something that marks the fact that we've arrived at a different place. We're not just surviving anymore. We're ac
MARRIED TO THE DEVIL BILLIONAIRE FOR REVENGE Chapter 190: The House
The penthouse has been our home for so long that I've stopped thinking of it as temporary.We've raised children here. We've done therapy here. We've built a life here. The city spreads out below us and we've come to think of it as ours in the way that you think of things that have held your most important moments.But something is shifting.I notice it first in the way Dominic looks at the windows sometimes. Like he's looking out at the world and understanding that there's something else out there. Something different. Something that might be exactly what we need at this stage of our lives.We don't talk about it directly at first. We just start looking at real estate listings on Sunday mornings. We look at houses in neighborhoods we've never been to. We look at properties with yards and gardens and space that isn't vertical."What are we doing?" I ask Dominic one Sunday."I don't know yet," he says honestly. "But I know something about this space doesn't feel right anymore."We star
MARRIED TO THE DEVIL BILLIONAIRE FOR REVENGE Chapter 189: Lisette's Crisis
Lisette calls on a Wednesday afternoon.Her voice is different. It's missing the specific confidence that characterizes everything she does. She sounds small. She sounds scared. She sounds like someone who's trying to hold it together but is starting to fall apart."Can we come over?" she asks. "You and Dominic. Tonight. We need to talk to you about something.""What's wrong?" I ask immediately."I can't explain it over the phone," she says. "Just can you be home tonight?"We say yes. Of course we say yes. Lisette has been part of our life for so long. She's been present for everything. She's the friend who threw us a surprise anniversary party. She's the godmother to our children. She's been the witness to our transformation.So when she asks us to be there, we're there.Lisette and Raffael arrive at seven o'clock.Raffael looks like someone who's been sleeping poorly. Lisette looks like someone who's been crying and trying to hide it. They sit on our couch and they don't sit close to
MARRIED TO THE DEVIL BILLIONAIRE FOR REVENGE Chapter 188: The Book Tour
The book is published on a Tuesday in October.It arrives in boxes at the foundation. Real physical books with my name on the cover and the story of everything that came after inside. The second book. The one about healing and ice rituals and children growing up and the specific mundane work of choosing someone again and again.The publisher wants me to do a tour. Not a massive tour with sold out venues and press junkets. A small tour. Eight cities. Readings at independent bookstores and libraries and the foundation locations. Places where people who actually care about the work can come and hear me read my own words back to them.Dominic tells me immediately that he's coming with me."To all of them?" I ask."To all of them," he says. "I want to be there when you read. I want to be there when you share this story. I want to support you the way you've supported me."The first reading is in New York.We're at an independent bookstore in the West Village. The space is intimate. Maybe a
MARRIED TO THE DEVIL BILLIONAIRE FOR REVENGE Chapter 59: Eyes In The Glass
**Nadia**A knock sounded at the penthouse door early that morning.I opened my eyes slowly. Dominic was already up and moving. His body tensed beside me before the second knock came. He pulled on pants fast and headed to the door. I sat up in bed. The sheets felt cool against my bare skin.Raffael
MARRIED TO THE DEVIL BILLIONAIRE FOR REVENGE Chapter 58: Garrett's Breaking Point
**Nadia**My phone buzzed hard on the nightstand and ripped me out of sleep.I grabbed it fast. Dominic's arm stayed heavy across my waist. His skin felt warm against mine. The screen lit up with notification after notification. I opened the first post and my stomach dropped.Garrett stared back fr
MARRIED TO THE DEVIL BILLIONAIRE FOR REVENGE Chapter 56: The Real Weadding
**Nadia**I stood in the soft morning light of the penthouse, my fingers still tingling from where they'd traced Dominic's jaw the night before. The air between us felt charged, heavy with everything we'd rebuilt after my day of deliberate distance. He watched me now, his dark eyes locked on mine
MARRIED TO THE DEVIL BILLIONAIRE FOR REVENGE Chapter 55: The Cost Of Absence
**Nadia**I waited until the morning light had fully claimed the penthouse before I began.I dressed in silence, choosing a soft gray sweater and black trousers that covered every inch of skin Dominic usually demanded access to. No silk robe left teasingly open at the thigh. No bare shoulder brush
