Chapter 11
That afternoon, Damon arranged movers for me.[]
A huge moving truck parked outside my complex, so impressive that everyone walking by had to stare.[]
Unfortunately.
I’d been so obsessed before that I’d bought in the same complex as Harrison.[]
He saw me too.
After realizing I was moving, he stood there with a dark expression, staring at me for ages, then pulled me aside and snapped irritably.
“Elowen, what the hell are you trying to pull?“]
I shook off his hand.[]
“I’m moving. How’s that your business?“]
He ran his hands through his hair.
“Fine, you’re really something.”
Seeing I wasn’t responding, he said through gritted teeth.]
“I won’t make you work overtime anymore, okay?“|[]
“Stop this act. It’s getting old.“[]
I ignored him, waved at one of the movers nearby.
The guy came over with a small box and handed it to me.[]
I took it and shoved it at Harrison.[]
“I’m not acting. This is the birthday gift you gave me before. I’m returning it.“[]
“Let’s just pretend we don’t know each other from now on, okay?“[]
Harrison’s face went completely dark.[]
He stared at the box, looked like he wanted to say something, but swallowed it back.[]
I watched his chest rise and fall for a while without him managing a single word, so I turned back to supervising the move.[]
Just as I was walking away, I heard Harrison say through clenched teeth.]
“Elowen, don’t come crying to me later.“]

If I wasn’t planning to keep things secret, I really would’ve loved to say.]]
I’m married now!]
What the hell would I regret?]]
The movers Damon hired were super efficient.]]
My stuff was pretty messy, but they still got everything organized perfectly in one afternoon.[]
I’d actually moved into Damon’s place.
All the stuff was now for two people.]]
One set his, one set mine.[]

Looking at my clothes hanging next to Damon’s, pressed close together, I felt my face getting warm for some reason.]
Why did the housekeeper put our sleepwear together too…]]
But marriage…]
I guess we really should be…[]
Doing that thing…?]]
While my mind was wandering, Damon came home.[]
–
He hugged me from behind, very satisfied as he admired the bedroom’s new look.
“Mm, feels like home now.”
I squeezed his hand, didn’t respond right away.]
He sensed my mood change immediately.[]
“What’s wrong, Ellie?”
“Why’s your face so red?“]
I quickly covered my face and closed the closet.]
“It’s… it’s hot.“[]
Damon watched my movements, like he figured something out.]
Asked with a mischievous grin.]
“Are you shy? Wifey?“]
“Because we’re living together now?“]
Chapter 11
I jumped up to cover his mouth.
“Who said you could ask that?“]
Damon kissed my palm with his lips and raised an eyebrow.[]
“If Ellie’s this shy, what are we gonna do when it’s bedtime?“[]
After he said that, I felt like my whole forehead was burning.[]
I must be red from head to toe now!
I buried my head and tried to push Damon away.]]
“Ahhh! Stop talking!“]]
But I wasn’t paying attention.[]
With my head down, not looking at him, Damon swept me up in his arms.]
Everything spun around.]]
He set me down on the bed.[]
He leaned over me, gently touching my cheek.[]
“Newlyweds–what else should we talk about? Wi–fey.“]]
I covered my face with my hands, too embarrassed to look at him.[]
Damon grabbed my wrists and pressed my hands against his firm chest.
“Don’t cover your eyes, Ellie.“[]
“You need to look at me.“[]
“I want to look at you too.“]
He leaned down and kissed my lips.
Wet, lingering sensation.[]
I could feel him tracing and gently sucking on my lips and tongue over and over.[]
The tingling up my spine made me instinctively curl my toes.[]
“Damon…“]
He lightly bit my tongue.]
“Say hubby.“]

“Hubby…”
“Good girl.“]
“Hubby… what are your hands doing?”
“Doesn’t Ellie know?“]
“Ahh…”
“Slow… slower…“]
