Chapter: Epilogue - Sanchiano-Morelli Legacy Two years later.The first rays of dawn cut across the Tangier skyline, gilding the fortified Sanchiano villa with a light so sharp it seemed to carve the world into clarity. Talana stood at the highest balcony, wind whipping her dark hair across her face. The ocean stretched endlessly before her, a living mirror of possibility and peril. Two years had passed since the chaos of Project Lazarus and the final battles that had rewritten the map of global crime and power. Yet here she was, unbroken, unbowed, a living testament to survival and control.She ran her fingers across the balcony’s cold iron railing, feeling the smooth burn of the paint beneath her palm. Her mind wandered briefly, not to revenge, not to war, but to what they had created. Empire was not just property, wealth, or influence, it was trust, loyalty, and a network strong enough to resist betrayal, and the Sanchiano-Morelli line was now intertwined like never before.Massimo approached sile

Chapter: Chapter 150 - The Dona’s Reign The Mediterranean sun spilled gold over the Tangier skyline, painting the city in hues of warmth and promise. From the balcony of a low, fortified villa, Talana leaned against the stone railing, the wind tugging at her hair. Below, the markets hummed with life, the scent of spices, sea salt, and bread mingling in the morning air. For the first time in over a decade, she felt something like peace, not the hollow calm after a storm, but the quiet of a life reclaimed.Massimo emerged from the study behind her, dressed in crisp linen, the kind that spoke of leisure rather than war. His presence was a tether, grounding her to the moment.“You’re staring at the horizon like we own it,” he said, sliding his hands around her waist.Talana leaned back against him, her hand resting over the subtle swell of her belly. “We do,” she said softly. “In a way, we really do.”Massimo chuckled, resting his chin atop her head. “And in another way, we still have more

Chapter: Chapter 149 - The Last Vendetta The world outside the hospital had turned into something Talana barely recognized. Flashbulbs lit the pavement, burning brighter than the Mediterranean sun. Reporters shouted her name, microphones shoved forward like daggers. The air was electric with both adoration and venom.She stepped out slowly, black sunglasses hiding the burn scars still healing along her cheek. Her body ached with each movement, ribs strapped tight, shoulder bound, but she moved like steel anyway. A living symbol. A woman who had walked through fire and crawled out still breathing.Massimo’s hand hovered at her lower back, close enough to catch her if she faltered, but careful not to overshadow her presence. Lorenzo flanked her other side, his predator’s eyes sweeping the crowd for the slightest twitch, the smallest threat. Mariano and Sanchiano men formed a wall of muscle behind them.The press screamed questions:“Dona Fabrizio, are you afraid for your life?”“Do you

Chapter: Chapter 147 - The Rise Of The DonaThe stench of antiseptic clung to the air, sharp and biting, drowning out the faint perfume of roses that Massimo had demanded the nurses place at Talana’s bedside. The contrast felt obscene, almost mocking, the sweetness of beauty against the charred remnants of her skin. She lay propped against crisp hospital sheets, her dark hair tangled and scorched at the ends, the right side of her face swathed in gauze that peeked blood at the edges.Massimo had not left her side. Not once. He sat slouched in a steel chair, his black shirt ripped open at the collar, eyes bloodshot but burning with something primal, rage, fear, love all braided into one rope wound so tight it looked ready to strangle him. His hand clutched hers, thumb stroking her knuckles as if the act alone could tether her to this world.“Don’t fucking move again like that,” he rasped, his voice broken gravel. “Don’t you ever, ever, throw yourself into the fire for me. You hear me, Talana?”Her li

Chapter: Chapter 146 - The Hacker And The Bomb The storm over Reykjavik was a black maw, swollen clouds split open by veins of white lightning that lit the icy plain like the wrath of old gods. The helicopters cutting through that storm carried two kinds of blood: law and lawlessness.Interpol’s insignia glittered faintly on their fuselages, but the true teeth inside were not their agents, it was Isla with her fire-bright eyes and Aria strapped down with wires feeding into her skull, fighting her own seizures as if she were a living conduit between life and machine.Talana’s world smelled of smoke, blood, and gasoline. Calabria burned in her bones. Every heartbeat was war. Every breath was sharpened glass.Inside the ghe lab the neural server lab was buried in the volcanic rock, a concrete bunker guarded by men with De Marco’s ghost sigil stitched on their Kevlar. Isla led the breach like a woman who had already signed her name in blood. Two silenced pistols in her hands, she cut the first line of guar

Chapter: Chapter 145 - Two Hearts One Love Talana’s nails raked down his back as though she could carve answers into his skin. Massimo didn’t flinch, he welcomed the sting. His mouth claimed hers again, rougher now, and he tasted the raw edge of her fury in every bite of her lips. The storm between them wasn’t meant to be gentle. It was meant to consume.Her thighs locked around his waist as he lifted her, slamming her back against the nearest wall. The picture frames rattled; the plaster cracked. Talana moaned into his mouth, her voice breaking between rage and hunger.“You should have told me!” she hissed, dragging his hair back so his eyes met hers. “You should have...”“kept you safe,” he growled, thrusting his hips against her, the heat between them burning away reason. “That’s all I’ve ever done, Talana. Even if it meant carrying sins that weren’t mine.”She tried to answer, but his hand closed around her throat, not crushing, but claiming. Her lips parted, trembling between defiance and surrender. The pressure forced he

Chapter: Chapter 203 - The Fire Between UsThe storm hadn’t moved on, instead, it had embedded itself into the retreat compound, curling through the eaves and windows like smoke, a living weight pressing on every surface, every breath. Thunder rolled across the mountains, a low, relentless rumble that made the walls shiver, and lightning arced across the sky with violent indifference. Inside, the candles guttered, half spent, casting long, wavering shadows that pooled in corners and twisted across the polished floors.Valerie stood near the window, her hand pressed to the cool glass, watching the rain streak down the panes. She could feel the lingering heat of what had passed between them, in her chest, the magnetic ache that hadn’t yet settled. Every nerve in her body was alight, every heartbeat a drumbeat in the dark. And yet she was aware of Sebastian behind her, the space between them charged as if the storm had moved inside the walls as well.He did not speak. He did not move. He was just there, leaning lightly against t

Chapter: Chapter 202 - You At The CenterThat night the storm hit the retreat compound with a ferocity that mirrored the chaos in Valerie’s mind. Rain hammered against the roof, a relentless percussion, and wind twisted the trees outside into jagged shadows that scraped the windows.Inside, the lights had gone out hours ago. Candles were the only illumination, casting uneven glows that painted walls with dancing menace. Shadows clung to corners, hiding everything, revealing only fragments.Valerie moved carefully across the floor, her boots silent on the polished wood. Every nerve was taut, every sense sharpened. The revelation from Sebastian still reverberated in her chest: her uncle. Lucien Sinclair. This wasn’t just betrayal, this was history rewritten without her consent, an enemy hiding in the familiar folds of her own family.Sebastian stood near the fireplace, hands in his pockets, jaw tight, the candlelight catching the planes of his face in sharp relief. He didn’t speak, he had already absorbed enough for both of th

Chapter: Chapter 201 - Say The NameValerie didn’t sleep, sleep felt like a luxury. She lay in her darkened room, replaying everything that had happened.In the adjacent room, Sebastian, too, was having difficulty with sleep. The night had stretched into something hard and watchful, every sound in the apartment amplified by what waited in the morning. Headlines. Boardrooms. Blood in the water. Valerie replayed Sebastian’s last words until they stopped sounding like strategy and started sounding like warning."You still haven’t told her who signed the order."She was puzzled because she had no clue as to what order was being referred to, but she knew one thing: men didn’t hide names unless they could detonate lives.By the time the sun lifted over Paris, Valerie was already dressed in black and her outfit meant business, whatever was going down today she was taking it head-on. She walked into the kitchen to find Sebastian there before her, sleeves rolled, phone in hand, jaw set in that way she recognized now, not def

Chapter: Chapter 200 - Letting You Hit MeThe apartment was too quiet for what was burning inside of Valerie Sinclair.Paris still clung to the windows, slate sky, rain-smeared glass. The city held its breath the way it always did when something ugly was about to break. Her phone lay abandoned on the kitchen counter, screen dark now, but the damage had already been done. She'd listened to the recording four times.The first time in disbelief. The second time with nausea crawling up her throat. The third time with fury sharp enough to hurt. The fourth time with something colder.Sebastian's voice filled her head even now. Edited. Trimmed. Stripped of context. But unmistakably his. “She doesn’t need to know everything. She never has.”“Perception matters more than intention.”“People fall in love with what they’re allowed to see.”The cut was surgically brutal. Designed to wound.Larissa didn’t release the full recording, only enough to make him look calculating, cruel, almost amused. The headlines had detonated within minut

Chapter: Chapter 199 - This Stops Being TheoreticalThe gala, held at a private estate, was designed to feel untouchable. An event that was by invitation-only. Black cars glided through wrought-iron gates like they belonged there. Crystal light spilled across marble floors polished to the point of reflection. No banners. No press banners. No chaos. Only power.Valerie stepped out of the car with practiced ease, Eclipse’s insignia catching the light along the curve of her wrist. She wore a black, bare shoulder, dress, the kind that didn't asked to be noticed, the architectural kind that commanded as she entered. Sebastian emerged a second later, and immediately everyone perceived the dynamic duo. He took his place by her side, not touching, not offering an arm, but his presence beside her said volumes. “Remember,” he murmured, low enough that only she could hear, “this room feeds on hesitation.”Valerie smiled without looking at him. “Then it’s going to starve.”They entered the ballroom side by side.

Chapter: Chapter 198 - From Warning To UltimatumThe villa lights came on, automatically, one by one.Inside, warmth replaced the night air, but the tension followed them in, clinging like static.Valerie didn’t take off her heels, she didn't pur herself a drink, she slowly moved through the open space, as if each step needed to remind the room who owned it.Sebastian closed the terrace doors behind them. The soft seal sounded louder than it should have.“You should’ve deleted the photo,” he said.She stopped mid-step. Didn’t turn, byt responded, “no, I should know who wanted me to see it.”“That’s not the same thing.”“It is when they want control.” She finally faced him, arms crossing. “You don’t threaten someone like me unless you’re trying to steer the reaction.”“You’re assuming this is about leverage.”“I’m assuming it’s about proximity,” she said. “No one shoots that angle by accident.”“They wanted you unsettled,” he said, his tone taut. “They got that much.”Her mouth curved faintly. “Don’t confuse unsettled with unprepared

Chapter: Hospital Banter Jullian opened his eyes slowly, the sterile white ceiling of the hospital room glaring back at him. The sharp scent of disinfectant clung to the air, and the beeping of machines drummed a steady rhythm against his skull. He shifted slightly, and a dull pain pulsed through his side."Well, look who's awake." Grace smiled, looking at him.His gaze slid to the chair beside his bed, where Grace sat, her legs crossed, arms folded, and with an expression somewhere between relief and exasperation.He smirked. "Miss me, cupcake?"Grace rolled her eyes. "Not really. I was just enjoying my peace and quiet until you started stirring."Jullian let out a dry chuckle, which quickly turned into a grimace as pain shot through his ribs. "Ow. Maybe don't make me laugh yet."Grace sighed, shaking her head. "Maybe you should try not getting shot next time.""Noted." He winced, adjusting slightly. "How long have I been out?""Long e

Chapter: The Final StandThe night was thick with tension, the weight of the moment pressing down on Jullian like a vice. The darkness swallowed the Cheshire countryside, but Kevin’s presence burned through the shadows.Jullian moved with measured precision, his gun firm in his grip. Beside him, Lloyd and Erroll advanced, their expressions grim, and each movement was calculated. Every muscle in his body was coiled, ready for the inevitable confrontation.Kevin thought he was untouchable. Tonight though, he would see just how he would fall.Erroll’s voice crackled through the earpiece. "He’s at the back entrance. If we’re doing this, it has to be now."Lloyd’s voice was razor-sharp. “We don’t let him walk away. We need retribution. Megs needs closure."Jullian gave a single nod, signalling the approach. They split, cutting off all potential escape routes.Then, at the sound of a twig, snapping caused Kevin to stiffen and pause to look around.Jul

Jullian could feel Grace’s eyes on him, her lips twitching with amusement.“You’re thinking something,” he said, keeping his gaze on the road.Grace tapped her nails against the dashboard. “Oh, just that for a man hell-bent on tracking a criminal, you look surprisingly attractive when you’re brooding.”Jullian shot her a look. “You trying to distract me?”“Me?” She gasped dramatically, placing a hand on her chest. “I would never. That would be wildly inappropriate given the circumstances.”He smirked. “And yet, here we are.”She leaned closer, her perfume filling the space between them, her voice dropping. “I could be helpful, you know. If you need stress relief.”His grip on the steering wheel tightened. “Grace...”“Yes, Jullian?” she smirked, batting her eyelashes. “Behave.”She laughed, thoroughly enjoying herself.

Chapter: Tracking Kevin The crisp London air had a bite to it as Jullian drove to fetch Grace. At the robot, he checked his phone for the hundredth time it was yet another text from Marshall, another update on Kevin’s last known whereabouts, but it didn’t yield any fruits. Grace emerged from the flat, and her overnight bag slung over one shoulder. Seeing the car pull up, Grace had a bemused smile on her lips. Then, as she took in his tense posture, she said, “You look like a man who's about to do something reckless.”Jullian slid his phone into his pocket and smirked. “That depends. Are you planning on stopping me?”She slid closer, the scent of her lingering perfume doing sinful things to his already frayed focus. “Now, why would I do that? I happen to enjoy watching you get into trouble.”He chuckled, “Then you’re in for a hell of a show.”As they weaved through the London streets, the weight of the situation settled in.

Chapter: A United FrontLloyd woke up with a start, the stiff hospital chair doing little to ease the knots in his muscles. He blinked against the dim light filtering through the blinds, his first instinct to check on Meghan. Meghan was still asleep, her breathing slow and steady, the faintest trace of colour returning to her cheeks. Relief washed over him, though it did little to settle the deep-seated frustration brewing inside him.Kevin was totally to blame. He didn't need to put a hand on her. His presence alone had been enough to send her body into overdrive. The stress and trauma it had all culminated in the previous night’s collapse, and Lloyd couldn’t stand the thought of Meghan going through that again.A soft knock at the door pulled him from his thoughts. Doctor Appleton entered, clipboard in hand, his face unreadable.“She’s improving,” he said before Lloyd could even ask. “Her blood pressure stabilized overnight, and her pain has lessened, but yo

Chapter: Megan's Stress Induced The world felt like it was tilting as Lloyd rushed Meghan into the hospital. His grip on her, tight, as if holding her closer, would somehow keep the pain from consuming her. Meghan's breaths came in short, shallow gasps, and her fingers trembled against his shirt.Doctor Appleton was already waiting in the emergency bay when they arrived. His usually calm expression sharpened into one of concern as he took in Meghan’s condition.“Put her down here,” he directed, gesturing toward a gurney.Lloyd hesitated for a fraction of a second before obeying. His arms ached from carrying her, but it was nothing compared to the fear clawing at his chest. Meghan’s face was pale, her skin damp with sweat.“The headaches have been at bay for a while now.

Chapter: Epilogue - Mine Even NowThe lake stretched like liquid glass under the afternoon sun, the water catching every golden thread of light and scattering it across the sky. At the estate, silence wrapped around the house, broken only by the faint whisper of wind through the trees and the distant caw of a crow. For the first time in years, Raven could breathe without interruption, without twins tumbling across the room, without schedules to chase, without the weight of a world outside pressing against her chest.She leaned against the frame of the sliding glass door, watching the water ripple. For three years, Jaxon had built her a sanctuary here, a fortress that smelled of cedar, leather, and the faint tang of lakewater, and now, with the twins gone to grandpa Jean for the weekend, the house felt impossibly vast, impossibly private, impossibly theirs.A shadow fell across her, long and familiar. Jaxon. His presence filled the room before he even spoke, like gravity pulling her attention. His gaze was steady, dark

Chapter: Chapter 153 - You're Going To Crawl The lake was glass that morning, calm, breathless, a perfect mirror of pale gold sunlight stretching across endless stillness. Mist drifted low like ghosts waking slowly. Raven stood on the wooden deck Jaxon had built just for her, one hand braced on the railing, the other holding a tiny sock that had once again mysteriously lost its partner.“Gabriella,” she called softly, a warning disguised in warmth. “Where did you put your brother’s sock?”A giggle answered from behind the sliding doors, sharp, mischievous, familiar. Raven turned, and the world softened instantly.On the plush lounge rug sat the twins, Gabriel and Gabriella Knight Morreau, dark-haired, sharp-eyed, beautiful little storms who had no idea they carried two different legacies in their blood: hers, of survival, and Jaxon’s… of power.Gabriella had the sock in her mouth again.Gabriel blinked up at Raven with those ice-blue eyes, Jaxon’s eyes, steady, assessing, calm even when surrounded by chaos.

Chapter: Chapter 152 - A New LifeA few weeks after the peopsal at Club Eden, Raven woke to a strange, sharp tug low in her abdomen, not quite pain, but pressure. Heavy, rhythmic, insistent. The kind that made the breath catch in her throat.She blinked, shifting in the warm cocoon of blankets. Rain whispered against the penthouse windows, the soft silver kind that made the city look washed clean. Jaxon slept beside her, one arm draped over her waist, his body curled protectively around her growing belly.Another tightening hit. This one sharper. Her breath hitched. “Jaxon…” Her voice was barely a whisper.He stirred instantly, he always did, a man whose instincts never slept. His hand slipped to her stomach, thumb brushing lightly across her skin.“Baby?” His voice was still thick with sleep. “Bad dream?”“No,” she whispered. “I… I think the babies are coming.”He shot upright so fast the mattress bounced. “What?” He flicked on the bedside lamp, golden light washing over them. “Raven, you’re only...”“Yes seven month

Chapter: Chapter 151 - Full Circle About three months later, Jaxon promised Raven a night out, some fun time before the twins came. He had something special planned for Raven that night, something he, Talia and his men had arranged for the woman who had stolen his heart and given him a reason beyond all reasons to be come a better Don.The night at Club Eden was warmer than Raven remembered, not the oppressive thrum of danger, but the hum of familiarity, a pulse that belonged to them now. She slipped her hand into Jaxon’s as they entered, heels clicking softly against the polished marble.The crowd parted slightly, whispers circling, but there was no fear, no tension, only reverence for the man who ruled the room, who now ruled her heart.Jaxon’s presence was lighter tonight, the predatory edge softened by the knowledge that the storm had passed. Evelyn’s shadow no longer lingered; her empire had crumbled into dust. For the first time in years, he smiled without calculation, the curve subtle but genuine, and Raven fel

Chapter: Chapter 150 - Little Butterflies The penthouse was silent in a way Raven wasn’t used to. Not the heavy, charged silence of danger, but something calmer, something finally breathing after holding itself tense for too long.Night stretched over the city below, the lights glittering like scattered glass. Raven sat curled on the wide velvet sofa, a blanket over her legs, her fingers nervously twisting the hem. Jean sat across from her, leaning back in Jaxon’s leather armchair like he belonged there.“He’ll be home soon,” Jean said quietly.Raven nodded, though her stomach remained in knots.Jean lifted a brow. “You’re worried.”“I’m… I’m not sure what I’m feeling,” she admitted.The truth was simple and terrifying: she knew Jaxon left to end it. Not just a conversation, not a warning, end it. Evelyn was the last piece of a poisoned legacy, and tonight, Jaxon had stripped that piece away.Jean exhaled slowly, rubbing his hands together. “My son is many things.

The vineyard stretched endlessly below the terrace, the rolling hills and cypress-lined lanes mocking her with their serenity. Once a symbol of power, now a cage. She was stripped bare, stripped of allies, finances, influence, everything.Jaxon stood a few paces away, calm, deliberate, an unrelenting shadow in black tailored precision. His presence was a storm contained, measured but devastating. Every step he took was deliberate, a predator closing the circle.“Mother-dear,” he said softly, a single syllable that carried decades of ice and fire. His hand rested lightly at his side, empty, yet it radiated the kind of authority that made men crumble. “Look at what’s left. Tell me, do you see it?”Evelyn’s gaze darted to the terrace’s edge, then to the guards at her side, trembling and useless. “You… you won’t...”“I already have,” he interrupted, cutting her off like a blade through silk. “E
