The ordeal, though shorter than usual, lasted nearly two hours.

Exhausted, Raegan lay motionless.

Eventually, Mitchel escorted her to the bathroom. She wanted to refuse but didn't dare provoke him further.

Fortunately, he seemed to recognize her fatigue and simply shared a shower with her.

Then, utterly spent, Raegan fell asleep in Mitchel's embrace.

Gazing at Raegan's serene, sleeping face, Mitchel's demeanor softened, and he whispered, "If you're honest with me, I can accept it."

In the past, he wouldn't have taken it seriously, merely seeing it as a joke.

But now, things were unclear, and he knew that if compromise was necessary, he would be the first to attempt it.

He just wanted Raegan to be by his side, willingly.

If that was what it took, he was willing to give it a try.

Not hearing his words, Raegan, deep in slumber, instinctively snuggled closer to his warmth.

Mitchel's expression shifted, his grip loosening slightly to hold her more gently, ensuring her comfort.

That night, Mitchel slept peacefully.

ANGELA's LIBRARY

Raegan, however, was tormented by a nightmare. In it, Mitchel was merciless, forcing her to terminate her pregnancy.

This fear haunted her until the early hours of the morning.

Before dawn fully broke, Raegan lay awake, Mitchel sleeping soundly beside her, his breaths even and calm.

Raegan sat up quietly, reaching for Mitchel's phone on the bedside table.

She used Mitchel's face to unlock it, but dared not head outside the room.

Instead, she tiptoed into the bathroom to send a message.

As she prepared to send the text, she realized she needed a password.

Mitchel's phone was customized for high security, useless to anyone who found it without the correct code.

Raegan tried Mitchel's birthday and the villa's password, but neither worked.

Just as she was about to abandon her attempt, a familiar voice startled her.

"Do you need me to unlock it for you?"
