"What? Say that again." Her voice barely rose above a whisper, uncertainty threading through the words.
Collin's expression didn't shift. His tone stayed level, unwavering. "I said, move into the master bedroom. We sleep together." Her breath caught. A tremor crept into her voice. "You're serious?" Was this really the sCollin? The day she moved in, he had been livid, his fury sharp enough to cut. He hadn't just refused her presence-he had all but thrown her out.
And now here he was, casually suggesting she move in and share a bed with him.
The shock on her face didn't escape him. A strange, unshakable tension settled in his chest-an emotion he couldn't quite name. Still, his expression remained as unreadable as ever.
"We're married. Sharing a bed is only natural." As if sensing her hesitation, he turned sharply to Josh and gave a firm order. "Josh, have someone pack Linsey's things and move them into my room."

Linsey had been living in Collin's villa for days, yet only now were they finally sharing a room.
They were both adults. With no barriers left between them, it was only a matter of tbefore their relationship took the next step.
Maybe, before long, they would start a family.
The servants worked with quiet efficiency, and soon, all of Linsey's belongings were transferred to Collin's room. As they finished their walk, Collin turned to Linsey. "You should go ahead and wash up first." She clung to his words like a lifeline, grateful for the excuse to escape. Springing to her feet, she hurried toward the master bedroom.
It wasn't her first tstepping inside, but somehow, tonight felt different. A quiet tension settled in her chest.
Collin's room, much like the man himself, was cold in its restraint-stark, meticulously arranged, with not a single unnecessary detail. Muted shades dominated the space, devoid of warmth or brightness.
Yet beneath its calculated minimalism, the room carried his presence: cool, commanding and unshakable.

Her eyes snapped open in alarm as the thought hit her.
"Stop it. You need to keep it together. Now that we're sharing a room, I have to be careful. I can't let him see how caught up I am in his good looks." She gave her cheeks a light, hurried pat, as if trying to physically shake the thoughts away.
Moving to the wardrobe, she opened it-and froze. Her clothes were neatly arranged beside his, their presence filling the space.
Each of their clothes occupied half the wardrobe, as if it had always been this way.
For sreason, seeing their clothes hanging side by side stirred a soft, almost sweet feeling in her chest. Taking a deep breath, she grabbed her pajamas and headed to the bathroom, determined to wash off the tension.

Before she could settle on an answer, the door swung open with a quiet! creak. Collin wheeled himself in, the sound of the door clicking shut behind him breaking the fragile stillness.
"Done with your shower?" Collin's gaze flicked over her briefly, lingering on the soft, bear-print pajamas that seemed so
out of place in the room. Then, without a trace of hesitation, hem uttered the words that knocked her off balance. "Take off your pajamas and lie down on the bed." Linsey's eyes shot wide, her mind scrambling to catch up with the suddenness of it all.
She had steeled herself for this moment, prepared for the inevitable. But his pluntness still caught her off guard, sending a rush of heat to her cheeks.
They hadn't been intimate on their wedding night. She had known that eventually, they would have sex.
But this? It was too fast. Too soon. She had just moved into his room-couldn't they at least have waited a day or two? 100.0%
