Sweet Mischief's Rollercoaster Romance novel Chapter 1018

Andre never expected his wife Mia to be in on such a secret. "Ahem, I, uh, didn't."

"Are you pulling my leg? I heard that those who receive the Black Pass get picked by the mysterious owner behind the scenes. And for those who aren't chosen, The Silent Ring has other plans. Honey, you must have met that mysterious owner, right?"

"Mm, uh, yes, I have." In the mirror, quite often, and Mia was meeting him right now too.

Mia's curiosity was piqued. Snuggled in her husband's arms, she playfully nudged his chest with her fingers. "Come on, spill the beans."

"The cat's out of the bag, but it's nothing you should worry your pretty head about." Andre wrapped his arms around his petite wife, the days of separation finally melting away as he held his soft, tender Mia close.

But Mia wasn’t about to let it go. "Honey, just tell me. If you do, we'll call it even for that time you ran off."

Holding her snugly, his hand slipped beneath her nightgown, gently caressing her skin. "That'd be a loss for me, unless..."

Andre whispered into her ear, playfully nibbling her earlobe, "Don't say no."

Meanwhile, in another room...

Molly lay nestled in Chad's arms, recording on her phone. "Chad, say those sweet things you said earlier again. I'm recording. And if you lie to me again, you'll be squealing like a pig."

Chad: "......"

At 2 A.M., while the rest of the world slept, Leo’s room was still aglow.
