Chapter 14
That afternoon, Harlan arranged for people to help me move.
A massive moving truck parked at the entrance of my villa, so impressive that everyone walking by couldn’t help
but stare.
And just my fucking luck.
I’d been so obsessed before that I actually bought a place in the same place as Garrick.
And he saw me.
After realizing I was moving out, he stood there with a dark expression, watching me for the longest time before pulling me aside, clearly irritated.
“Elysia, what the hell are youdoing?”
I yanked my hand away from his.
“I’m moving. How is that any of your business?”
He ran his hand through his hair.
“Fine, just fine. You’re really something.”
Seeing that I was ignoring him, he said through gritted teeth:
“I won’t make you work overtime anymore, okay?”
“Stop this bullshit. This is getting ridiculous.”
I ignored him and waved over one of the movers who was helping nearby.
The guy came over carrying a small box and handed it to me.
I took it and immediately shoved it at Garrick.
“I’m not playing games. These are the birthday gifts you gave me before–I’m returning them.”
“Let’s just pretend we never knew each other, okay?”
Garrick’s expression went completely dark.
He stared at the box, started to say something, but swallowed it back.

I watched his chest rise and fall for a while, but he still couldn’t get a word out, so I turned around to continue supervising the move.
Just as I was walking away, I heard Garrick say through clenched teeth:
“Elysia, don’t come crying to me later.”
If I wasn’t trying to keep things secret, I really would have loved to say.
I’m fucking married now.
What the hell would I regret?
The movers Harlan hired were incredibly efficient.
My stuff was pretty chaotic, but they still managed to get everything organized and packed up in one afternoon.
I’d actually moved into Harlan’s place.
Everything was now set up for two people.
One set for him, one for me.
Looking at my clothes hanging next to Harlan’s, pressed close together, I felt my face getting hot for some reason.
Why did the housekeeper put our pajamas together too…
But marriage…
I guess we really should be…
Doing… that…?
While my mind was racing with these thoughts, Harlan came home.
He wrapped his arms around me from behind, very satisfied as he admired the bedroom’s new look.
‘Mmm, feels like home now.”
I held onto his hands, not responding right away.
He immediately picked up on my mood.
‘What’s wrong, Elysia?”
“Why is your face so red?”
I quickly covered my face and closed the closet.

‘Harlan,it’s… it’s hot in here.”
Harlan looked at my reaction like he’d figured something out.
He asked teasingly.
Are you shy,baby?”
Because we’re living together now?”
jumped up to cover his mouth.
Oh,why…you ask this?”
Harlan kissed my palm with his lips and raised an eyebrow.
‘If Elysia’s this shy now, what are we gonna do when it’s time for bed?”
After he said that, I felt like my entire forehead was on fire.
must be blushing from head to toe now!
ducked my head and tried to push Harlan away.
‘Ahhh! Stop please!”
But in my carelessness.
With my head down and not watching him, Harlan scooped me up around the waist.
Everything spun around me.
placed me on the bed.
He leaned over me, gently touching my cheek.
We’re newlyweds–what else should we be talking about? Wi–fe.”
covered my face with my hands, too embarrassed to look at him.
Harlan grabbed my wrists and pressed my hands against his firm chest.
‘Don’t cover your eyes, Elysia.”
‘I want you to look at me.”
‘I want to look at you too.”

He leaned down and kissed my lips.
Wet, tender sensations.
I could feel him tracing my lips and tongue over and over, gently sucking.
The tingling sensation down my spine made me unconsciously curl my toes.
“Harlan…”
He lightly bit my tongue.
“Say husband.”
“Husband…”
“Good girl.”
“Husband… what are your hands doing?”
“Doesn’t Elysia know?”
“Ahh…”
“Slow… slower…”
