and just a little unfocused. His cheeks held a faint flush. “Are you drunk?”
“Yeah,” he replied with a low laugh. His voice was rough. “Kaia, you started this.”
Before she could ask what he meant, Lucien gently grabbed her wrist and tugged her forward.
Caught off guard, Kaia stumbled straight into his arms.
“Lucien, what are you doing?”

But it was late, and he still reeked of whiskey. He didn’t want to disturb her sleep.
Back in his room, Lucien’s gaze landed on the small gift box on his nightstand. His fingers trembled slightly as he picked it up.
Inside was a pair of sleek silver rings-couple’s bands.
A flush crept up his cheeks, his already softened expression sharpening with emotion.
He rubbed the ring gently between his fingers, lashes lowering as something warm and heavy bloomed in his chest.
He’d planned to wait.
But he couldn’t.
He knocked on her door.
“Kaia, are you asleep?”
Kaia, half-asleep, stirred at the sound of knocking.
She groaned and covered her ears with the blanket, but the knocking continued.
Annoyed, she threw the covers off and marched to the door. “It’s late. I was sleeping!”
“Sorry,” came Lucien’s voice.
kala’s glare faltered when she met his gaze. His eyes were

Lucien nodded slightly, his lips curving with quiet pride. “Just registered. The wedding’s still being planned. You’ll get an invite soon-I hope you’ll honor us.”
“Of course! I wouldn’t miss your wedding for the world.”
Edward’s mind spun. Who would’ve thought Lucien of all people was a henpecked husband?
In that moment, the god-like figure of the business world suddenly seemed human.
By the time Lucien got home, it was already past eleven.
Jason was still up, waiting. “Mr. Graves, let me get you a glass of water.”
Lucien loosened his tie. “No need. Is Mrs. Graves asleep?”
“Yes. She went to bed around ten. Didn’t come out again. Oh— but she did leave a gift for you.”
Lucien paused. “A gift?”
“Yes. I saw her place a box on the dining table earlier, but then she took it upstairs. Guess she’ll give it to you tomorrow.”
Lucien nodded faintly and headed straight for the second floor.
But instead of going to his own room, he found himself standing outside hers. He wanted so badly to knock, to see what she’d bought.

The sales associate pinched her own thigh to hold back laughter. “Miss, would you like me to call 911 for you?”
“Are you insane?” Luna snapped before storming out, still
fuming.

The little incident didn’t faze Kaia one bit.
Back home, she first set the gift on the dining table, but it felt too casual.
So she went upstairs and put the box on the nightstand in Lucien’s bedroom.
Adjusted it once. Then again. Just right.
Satisfied, she smiled to herself and left.
After skipping dinner with Edward Mitchell yesterday, Lucien had no excuse today.
“Mr. Graves, you really stood me up yesterday,” Edward said with a laugh. “I cleared my schedule and you bailed on me.”
Lucien chuckled lightly. “My apologies, Mr. Mitchell. My wife keeps a tight leash, I hope you’ll understand.”

When did that happen? There hadn’t been a single whisper of

Kaia’s expression was sharp and impatient. “Haven’t you had enough?”
Luna stood there in disbelief. “You hit me?”
Kaia had the nerve to hit her?
Kaia curled her lip into a cold smirk, rolling her eyes. “Yes, I hit you. Want me to pencil in a better time?”
Without Alden around, Luna dropped the act. She clutched her cheek and raised her hand, ready to slap back.
But Kaia caught her wrist effortlessly. Her other hand landed another crisp slap on the opposite cheek.
“There,” Kaia said with a pleasant smile. “Now they match.”
“I’m calling the police! I’ll sue you, Kaia. I’ll get your law license revoked!”
Kaia’s lips curled into a sneer. “Sure. Go ahead. But first you’ll need a medical report to prove it’s a serious injury. Oh, and by the way-everything you said earlier? I recorded it.
“This store has audio security, too. So let’s see-who was harassing who again? Try me.”
With that, she strode out, shopping bag in hand.
