The Billionaire's Intern (Maya Thompson) novel Chapter 526

Chapter 255: She Really Was in Trouble

Chapter 255: She Really Was in Trouble

The moment the bathroom door closed behind her, Maya released a long breath she hadn’t

realized she was holding.

The cool marble beneath her feet offered little relief against the warmth lingering in her

cheeks.

Honestly, she wasn’t entirely sure whether she had escaped because she genuinely needed the bathroom or because she needed a few minutes away from him.

The man was impossible.

A helpless smile tugged at her lips as she shook her head and stepped beneath the shower.

Warm water cascaded over her skin moments later, melting away the lingering exhaustion from the long night and chasing away the last traces of sleep.

Unfortunately, it did nothing to quiet her thoughts.

Her mind kept drifting back to everything they had shared that evening.

To the way Damien always seemed capable of drawing out a side of her she never knew

existed.

Even now, she could hardly believe some of the things she had done and said earlier that

night.

If someone had told her a few months ago that she would one day find the courage to take the initiative the way she had, she would have laughed in their face.

Yet somehow, with Damien, it had felt natural.

Liberating, even.

For the first time in her life, she didn’t feel self-conscious or afraid of being judged. She felt safe. Safe enough to be vulnerable. Safe enough to be bold. Safe enough to express what she wanted without embarrassment or hesitation.

And if she was being honest with herself, she liked it.

She liked the woman she was becoming whenever she was with him.

More than that, she liked the way Damien seemed to accept every part of her without question.

Maya closed her eyes as warm water streamed through her hair

For most of her life, the future had always felt distant

Uncertain.

Something that would eventually happen when the timing was right

Yet somewhere along the way, that had begun to change.

Over the past week since moving into the manor, Maya had found herself wondering more than once what life would actually look like living with Damien.

What it would be like to wake up beside him every morning, share breakfast together before starting their day, watch him work while she curled up nearby with her laptop, and fall asleep in his arms every night.

They were such simple, ordinary things, yet somehow they were the moments she found herself thinking about the most.

The thought should have terrified her.

Instead, it filled her with a strange sense of peace.

Maya had known from the very beginning that loving Damien Blackwood came with risks.

Being with him was never just about the status, the luxury, the private jets, or the glamorous life people saw from the outside.

It also came with responsibilities, pressure, and dangers that most people could never imagine.

There would always be people watching him. People wanting something from him. People willing to use those around him as leverage.

She had already seen enough to understand that much.

The truth was, a life with Damien would never be simple. There would be challenges ahead that neither of them could predict, difficult moments that would test them, and hardships that would inevitably leave scars along the way.

Yet none of that changed how she felt.

Because for every risk that came with loving Damien, there was also Damien himself.

The man who dreamed about coming home to her.

The man who spoke about their future with such certainty that it was impossible not to

believe him.

The man who looked at her as though she was the most important person in his world and somehow made her feel cherished in ways she had never experienced before.

A small smile touched her lips.

Maybe the future wouldn’t always be easy. Maybe there would be obstacles waiting for them that neither of them could see yet

But for what it was worth, Maya knew one thing with absolute certainty.

Whatever came their way, she wanted to face it with him.

Together

A quiet warmth spread through her chest.

Honestly, Damien Blackwood was dangerous.

Not because of his money or his power, but because of how casually he said things that completely overturned her world.

Now I catch myself wondering what our daughter would look like.

Since you came into my life, all I dream about is having my own family… with you.

The words replayed in her mind once more, carrying the same effect they had when he first

said them.

He had sounded so sincere.

So certain.

As though the future he described wasn’t merely something he hoped for one day, but something he fully intended to build.

With her.

The thought made her heart flutter.

Before she could stop herself, a smile curved her lips.

She really was in trouble.

Somewhere along the way, she had stopped merely imagining that future.

She had started wanting it.

Several minutes later, Maya finally reached up and turned off the shower.

The steady sound of falling water faded, leaving only the soft hum of the bathroom ventilation system.

She grabbed a towel from the nearby rack, quickly dried herself, and wrapped it securely around her body before stepping out of the shower.

Standing in front of the large vanity mirror, Maya absently gathered her damp hair over one shoulder.

For a long moment, she simply looked at her reflection.

A smile threatened to return to her lips.

Honestly, this was all Damien’s fault.

A month ago, the idea of even crossing paths with one of the world’s most eligible billionaire bachelors would have sounded like something straight out of a romance novel, a movie, or a television drama.

Yet somehow, life had taken an unexpected turn.

Not only had she fallen hopelessly in love with him, but she had just agreed to move in with
