Alex’s pov:
Ever since Jade’s father passed away, we had not been intimate… and no, I meant more than just s*x. Even the usual morning kiss became a little bit of a chore to her, it would seem.
I was trying to give her time and space, not knowing what went through that beautiful head of hers… And that might have been quite the mistake!
Indeed, in hindsight, I realized that giving her space and time allowed doubt to fester. And trust was fundamental in any relationship.
I was thinking of taking her on a date, seeing as it had been quite some time since our last one. I was about to start making arrangements, and even call her, when there was a knock on the door of my office.
I straightened up, sensing Camelia, and wondered if today was the day she would bear good news for me.
As per us
