My fiancé married someone else without telling me. He regretted it after I went abroad.

**Chapter 1**

After a month apart, Liam Vance pounced on me like a hungry wolf, as if he wanted to devour me whole.

"Stella, do you know how much I've missed you? I was going crazy."

"Liam, I... I missed you too..."

Our long, passionate tangle finally ended, leaving us utterly spent.

I was practically a puddle, and Liam, as always, gently wiped me down with a soft cloth.

His fingertips grazed my sensitive skin, making me shiver involuntarily.

"Stella, something came up at the office tonight. I'll have to work late. Get some rest early."
