"What’s that?" Mia asked concernedly, her gaze fixed on the red marks Angela had tried, and failed to hide.

"Are those mosquito bites, or…?"

Oh, Mia. Still so innocent.

Angela used that innocence to her advantage. She smiled and quickly raised her collar, tugging it higher to cover her neck.

"Yeah, yeah… I left my window open last night, so…" She rubbed at her neck.

"Oh, you should apply some balm, I—"

"Sure." Too fast. Way too fast.

Mia smiled in contentment, but Angela’s smile was one

    Almost an hour later, Axel slowly opened his eyes. The pounding in his head was gone. For several seconds, he simply stared at nothing. Then his hand drifted to his forehead, brushing his hair aside. No pounding behind his eyes. No burning beneath his skin. Nothing. He felt... perfectly normal. His brows drew together almost imperceptibly before his eyes landed on the blanket covering him. He frowned. Pushing it aside, he sat up. His hair immediately fell back across his forehead, but he barely noticed. His attention had already shifted to the pillow resting against the couch's arm. Neither the blanket nor the pillow had been there when he'd closed his eyes. He took in the room. The hotel bed had been stripped bare, and his clothes were neatly laid out on top of it. Mia. He had told her not to bother. She had ignored him. But that wasn't what bothered him. He had slept. Properly. No nightmares. No restless tossing. No waking every few min

    As soon as Mia finished massaging his head, and definitely not spending several extra minutes appreciating how ridiculously soft his hair was... she found herself staring at it. It looked slightly messy now. Not that she minded. Then a thought appeared. A terrible thought. One quick sniff. Just one. Purely for research purposes, of course. He wouldn't know. Probably. Hopefully. Actually, now that she thought about it, that sounded exactly like the kind of thing people said right before they got caught. Still... Axel hadn't moved once throughout the entire massage. His eyes had remained closed the whole time. He was asleep. He had to be asleep. Otherwise, surely he would have said something by now. Taking that as confirmation, Mia quickly leaned down and stole a sniff. Just one. Her eyes widened instantly. She shot back upright. Good heavens. It smelled good. Like... really good. There was definitely coconut in there. Coconut and something

    After Mia finished making the coffee, she carried it to his room. The door wasn't locked. Axel had intentionally left it that way, so all she had to do was knock lightly before stepping inside. He was still sprawled across the couch, though he'd shifted positions. Now he was lying on his stomach with his arms crossed over the armrest, using them as a pillow. His eyes were open. They landed on her for a second before drifting elsewhere. For some reason, Mia found the position ridiculously cute. Maybe it was the way he looked half-asleep. Or maybe it was the curtain of hair that had fallen over his face, nearly hiding his eyes. However, a few steps into the room, Mia stopped. Her brows drew together. The food she had brought for him was still there. Untouched. She could tell immediately, it was still uncovered, exactly as she had left it. Not a single thing had been touched. She glanced at Axel. Honestly, he was starting to remind her of his younger self. A

    Mia settled into her room, took a shower, and slipped into a light gown, twisting her hair into a loose bun. It wasn't what she intended to wear to the event, but with nearly two hours left before it began, there was no rush. The doorbell suddenly rang. That must be the food. Earlier, she had arranged for both her meal and Axel's to be delivered to her room. Immediately, she dropped Axel's coat onto the bed before anyone could catch her doing what she'd just been doing with it. Then she got up and headed for the door. When she opened it, she was greeted by the sight of a trolley laden with their meals. "Good evening, ma'am," the hotel staff greeted. Mia returned the greeting with a smile and stepped aside to let her in. The woman wheeled the trolley into the room and carefully set the dishes on the table before quietly excusing herself. Left alone, Mia wandered over to inspect the spread. She lifted one of the lids. A mouthwatering aroma greeted her immediately.

    Arriving in Sochi, it was already 4:18 p.m. when they reached the hotel. The weather was slightly colder than expected, but Mia didn’t dwell on it. It was already evening anyway. Besides, she was too busy trying to keep up with Axel to notice much else. The man had abandoned her the second the car stopped, leaving her with the bellhop and their luggage while he strode ahead without a care in the world. Wickedness, she thought as she hurried after him. The moment Axel reached the counter, the receptionist looked up. "Oh." Her lips parted. "It's you." He didn’t particularly like this hotel, but he couldn’t blame Mia. The booking had been handled by his former PA. The smile that followed was impossible to miss. So was the way her eyes traveled over him. Axel spared her a glance. "I assume my room is ready." Unfortunately, she was one of the reasons he would have preferred not to stay here. "Always." Her eyes swept over him again. "I make sure you get the best

    Daniil finally lowered his gaze when he realized no one was responding. His eyes swept over the group. Every single one of them was staring past him. "Huh?" He turned slowly. "Oh." His expression immediately fell. It was him. Axel. The man didn't look bothered in the slightest. If anything, he simply stepped back and gave a small bow. "Afternoon, Boss." Then he leaned toward Andrew and lowered his voice. "How much did he hear?" Andrew didn't even hesitate. "Pretty much all of it." "Perfect." Andrew stared at him. Perfect? There was something seriously wrong with this man. Axel stood still, one hand holding his luggage while the other rested in the pocket of the spare coat he’d retrieved from his office closet. And his eyes... They were on Daniil. A little longer than usual. Longer than they ever had before. Daniil shifted awkwardly. What? His eyes dropped to himself, checking for some invisible problem. Nothing. When he looked back

    "Angela, right?" Brenda asked. Angela nodded. "Yes, ma’am." "Mia never mentioned you," Brenda said mildly. "Not that I expected her to. But do tell, how close are you to my daughter?" That was when David finally looked up. His gaze landed on Angela, and the instant she felt it, she stiff

    "What was that all about, Luis?" Brenda asked as they made their way home. Luis, meanwhile, was lost in thought. He replayed the encounter with Axel over and over, painfully aware of how foolish he'd been. "I thought we were going to ask about his whereabouts all those years," Brenda continued.

    Mia was still crushed by the fact that Axel had claimed he didn’t know her. *I don’t know you. Move aside.* Those words kept echoing in her mind, again and again. And the way he had said them, like she was nothing but dirt he needed to shake off, like she was some stranger, cut even deeper becau

    Later that evening, Luis decided to visit Axel at his mansion. He hadn't expected him to return to his parents' house, so he'd relied on the news to figure out where Axel was currently staying. His car rolled to a stop in front of the gate, and this time, he arrived without the excessive entourag
