Chapter: CHAPTER 174: From Stripper to Mrs. HarringtonSabrina's POVI've always believed my life was nothing but a sad reality TV show, one tragedy after another, each season more heartbreaking than the last. I'd tossed and turned through sleepless nights ever since my parents died, carrying grief like stones in my pockets.But today, this moment, I was living my dream.I sat on the balcony of my mansion, watching the New York City skyline glitter with Jace on the other end of the phone and my engagement ring catching the first rays of sunlight on my left hand."Baby, I cannot wait for you to move in with me in Texas." His voice was warm honey through the speaker. "We'll have so much fun there. I'll take you to all my favourite places.""I know." I smiled, twisting the ring on my finger. "Our graduation is this morning, and our wedding is this evening. So what's the big deal? You have a few hours until I'm yours forever.""God, you have no idea." I could hear the smile in his voice. "I want you right here in my arms right now. I want to

Chapter: CHAPTER 173: The Truth Shall Set You FreeJace's POV"You can go back to your duties. I can handle this." The words were heavy on my tongue, weighted with emotions I was still trying to process. I addressed the security guards hovering around Sabrina like sentries awaiting the command to strike."Yes, sir." They retreated like soldiers falling back from a battlefield after their commander's order, melting back into the shadows of the lobby.I didn't say a word to her. She simply followed me into the elevator, and before the doors closed, I felt every eye on the ground floor fixed on us. The staff pretended to work, shuffling papers, typing on keyboards, and speaking into phones, but the moment I glanced away, their gazes locked onto us like magnets drawn to metal.When the elevator doors finally sealed us in that small metal box, silence filled the space like water flooding a sinking ship. We both stood straight as soldiers, backs against opposite walls like two strangers forced to share the same square footage of air.But th

Chapter: CHAPTER 172: Forty-Five Floors to Face the TruthJace's POV"Get me the file for the power plant project." I didn't look up from my desktop, my eyes locked on the financial report I was preparing for the next board meeting. Numbers swam across the screen: revenue projections, expense forecasts, and risk assessments. At the same time, I had three other windows open, tracking the shipment currently crossing the Pacific. My father had put me on that project personally because he didn't want anything to go wrong with it. Too much money, too many investors, too many eyes watching to see if the young COO would sink or swim.I'd done all the clearance work myself, approved every payment, and double-checked every invoice. No room for error. No space for weakness.I saw her approach from my peripheral vision: Ella, the new assistant Scott had hired before he'd left for France. She bent over to retrieve the file from the cabinet, and all her curves became visible through the tight red pencil skirt she wore. It matched her lipstick, I noticed

Chapter: CHAPTER 171: Truth In The Drawer!Sabrina's POV"Shooting recorded outside popular Club Eden last night. No deaths were recorded, but multiple injuries were reported as rival gang members opened fire outside the establishment around 2 AM..."My eyes were fixed on the television screen mounted in the hospital waiting room, the news anchor's voice washing over me like white noise. The headline scrolled across the bottom in that ominous red text they always used for violence: GANG VIOLENCE ERUPTS AT ELITE NIGHTCLUB.I'd experienced one or two shootouts outside Club Eden during my time there, the hazard of working in a place where money, power, and danger intersected like tangled threads. So this news wasn't shocking to me. It was just... sad. Another reminder of the life I'd left behind, the world I'd barely escaped.I simply took my eyes off the screen and focused on steadying my breathing, trying to centre myself before the doctor called me back.Skye was remanded in prison, awaiting trial for accessory to murder.

Chapter: CHAPTER 170: When Love Becomes PoisonJace's POVTwelve days later.Not every story has a perfect ending, and not every love story concludes with happily ever after. Some end tragically, violently, with the kind of pain that carves itself into your bones and changes who you are forever.My story was not an exception.Over the years, I had transformed: evolved or devolved, depending on who you asked. From Playboy to protector. From careless to careful. From hating Sabrina Brooks with every fibre of my being to loving her so completely, it terrified me. From arrogant hockey star to romantic boyfriend to heir of an empire I never wanted.And now, finally, to this: a broken man standing in the wreckage of his own naivety, learning that the cruellest betrayals come wrapped in the softest skin.The monster the world created wasn't born from hatred.It was born from loving the wrong person.---The night it all shattered.I can still remember every detail with the kind of clarity that comes from trauma, the way certain moments b

Chapter: CHAPTER 169: The Grand EntranceJace's POV"Ladies and gentlemen…" I clicked to the final slide of my presentation, watching the projection illuminate the darkened boardroom with charts and projections that represented days of strategic planning, "...now with this approach, we can hit the oil market really hard, and people won't even notice the loopholes in our financial report. This is what I call the master plan."The silence that followed was thick with contemplation. I could feel every eye in the room on me, these titans of industry, these men and women who'd built empires from nothing, studying me like I was a specimen under a microscope.Then I caught my father's eyes across the polished mahogany table.The look on his face was filled with both pride and impression, emotions Richard Harrington rarely displayed publicly. He sat back in his leather chair, one hand stroking his jaw, the hint of a smile playing at the corners of his mouth. Though he didn't say it out loud and would never say it in front of the boa

Chapter: CHAPTER 9: The Weight of His EyesSERAPHINEI couldn't tell you how my night was, because I never slept. Not once. I lay under sheets softer than anything I'd ever touched, staring at a ceiling I couldn't see in the dark, and Mohan's voice kept circling back no matter how many times I tried to push it out.You have no idea what you did today.His hand was still there, a phantom pressure against my throat every time I swallowed. I kept touching the spot, checking for marks that weren't there, because the fear had left something behind even if his fingers hadn't bruised.By the time grey light crept through the curtains, I gave up pretending sleep was coming. I sat up, and the first thing I noticed was that my old dress, the faded, mended one I'd worn every day for three years, was gone. In its place, folded over the arm of a couch I hadn't even registered the night before, sat something new. Pale gold, soft to the touch, the kind of fabric that didn't fray at the seams the moment you looked at it the wrong way.I put i

Chapter: CHAPTER 8: His Hand Around My ThroatSERAPHINEThe ride home was quiet. The only sound was the faint hum of the air conditioner and my own heartbeat, too loud, too fast, sitting this close to a man who had just called me his in front of nine Alphas and was now staring out the window like nothing had happened at all. I studied his profile in the dark, the hard line of his jaw, the way his hands sat perfectly still on his knees when I knew, I knew, something was churning underneath that stillness.I followed his car back to the manor because I needed my old dress and my bag. I had a night shift scrubbing toilets waiting for me at the orphanage, and Calista didn't accept excuses that started with "the Alpha."The moment I stepped through the door behind him, the quiet ended.He stormed straight into the study, and his voice hit the walls before I'd even crossed the threshold."Why the hell would you do that? You misinterpreted him to me, every word of it.""Because I was trying to calm the situation. " Mohan's hands cut thr

Chapter: CHAPTER 7: He Called Me His MateKAEL"You're staring," Seraphine said, without looking away from the window."I'm assessing.""Assessing what?""Whether that dress will survive a council session." It wouldn't survive what I actually intended to say to Draven Cole, but that wasn't information she needed yet.She didn't answer. Her hands stayed folded too tight in her lap, knuckles pale, and I let the silence sit between us, counting the mile markers of my own territory sliding past the window. Trade routes I'd built from nothing. Mines that fed three currencies. Shipping lanes that made half the twelve territories richer than kingdoms three times their size. None of it mattered in a room I couldn't hear properly, and none of it would matter tonight if Draven walked out of Crescent Hall believing I was as broken as he wanted the council to think.Crescent Hall received us the way it always did. Cold stone slick with torchlight, the low collective growl of nine Alphas who did not want to breathe the same air. Two seat

Chapter: CHAPTER 6: We Are Going to WarSERAPHINEI'd been coming to Blackthorn Manor for almost a month.For most of it, the Alpha himself hadn't even been here. Mohan had told me, in his clipped, economical signs, that Kael was overseeing the southern mines three territories deep, where a dispute over silver quotas had turned two allied packs against each other, and beyond that a shipping dispute at the eastern ports that threatened half the grain routes feeding the lower territories through winter. I hadn't understood, until I saw the ledgers stacked in the study one afternoon, just how much of the twelve territories ran through this one man's hands. Mines. Mills. Trade roads that stretched further than I'd ever travelled in my life. He wasn't just an Alpha. He was the reason half these packs ate through the cold months at all.I painted in an empty studio those weeks, half convinced the whole arrangement had been a fever dream conjured out of a desperate orphan's imagination. Then yesterday his convoy had rolled back t

Chapter: CHAPTER 5: I Was Never Meant for an AlphaSERAPHINEI should have said no.The thought circled through my mind like a bird trapped in a room, beating its wings against the walls of every rational argument I could construct. I should have said no when he offered the commission. Should have said no when he agreed to twenty per cent without real resistance, a concession that came too easily from a man who negotiated territorial borders for a living. Should have said no when he'd held my hand and something electrical had raced up my arm and settled behind my ribs like a second heartbeat.I should have said no, because powerful men don't offer orphans anything without expecting repayment, and the currency they demand is never the kind you can afford.But I'd said yes.And now I was standing in the common room of the orphanage, my back pressed against the wall, trying to explain to Ally why this was a rational decision and not the first step toward my own destruction."Twenty per cent increase in provisions," I said. "That's enough

Chapter: CHAPTER 4:I Refused My Fated MateKAELShe was still talking.I wasn't processing the words; I couldn't, not yet. Not while my entire nervous system was short-circuiting like a machine that had been dormant for years and was now sputtering to life with electrical surges it wasn't built to handle. But her voice, God, her voice, poured into the silence like water into cracked earth, filling spaces I'd forgotten existed.It wasn't what I'd expected.I'd imagined my mate's voice as something regal. A clear bell. A silver instrument. The kind of voice that belonged in concert halls and coronation speeches, crisp with breeding and authority. Something worthy of the Alpha who'd united twelve territories.Hers was none of that.It was soft. Not weak. Soft, the way suede is soft, the way a candle flame is soft. There was a slight huskiness beneath the surface, a texture that caught on certain consonants, and when she said my title, 'Alpha Thorne', there was no reverence in it. No awe. Just a statement of fact delivered with th

Chapter: CHAPTER 121: Dinning SagaCade's POVBreakfast smelled like bacon and disaster.I sat at the far end of the table with my coffee untouched in front of me, watching the steam curl off it and die, because drinking it would have required unclenching my jaw, and my jaw had decided sometime around three in the morning that it was staying clenched indefinitely.Ezra sat across from Scarlett with the easy, unhurried posture of a man who had never once in his life worried about whether he belonged in a room. He'd showered. His hair was doing that thing where it looked deliberately unstyled, which took more effort than styled hair ever did, and he was currently explaining something about soil composition to my stepmother, while she hung on every word like he was reciting scripture."....And that's the thing about Bermuda grass," Ezra was saying. "Beautiful in the summer, but it chokes out everything else if you don't manage it.""Fascinating," Rachel said, and she meant it, the traitor.I picked up my fork. Set it down

Chapter: CHAPTER 120: Caught in the Dark PathCade's POVI paced the room, back and forth, back and forth, my bare feet dragging over the cool wooden floorboards of the boys' quarters. The place was still dim, lit only by that thin blade of moonlight slicing through the blinds and falling in pale stripes across the bed, across her legs, across the mess of sheets we'd left tangled less than an hour ago. It felt like a lifetime had passed since then. A different night. A different life.I could still see the pain in Scarlett's eyes, even in this half-dark. It sat there, raw and glistening, and it hurt me worse than the slap had. The slap I could shake off, my cheek still carrying a faint sting and warmth where her palm had connected, but this, watching her carry the weight of all of this at her age, watching her fold into herself on the floor as the world had just caved in around her, was something I didn't know how to fix. It only seemed to get worse by the hour, like a wound that refused to close, no matter how much pressure I ap

Chapter: CHAPTER 119: Divorce KnockingScarlett's POVThe room was dark except for the thin slice of moonlight slipping through the blinds, silver stripes falling across the sheets, and somewhere outside, a lone cricket kept up its steady chirp as if it had nowhere better to be. I had my eyes closed, half asleep against Cade's shoulder, when his voice found me in the quiet."Have you thought about a name for my children yet?"His voice was the warmest thing I'd ever heard, low and rough with sleep and affection, and his hand moved in slow circles over the swell of my stomach, two heartbeats stubbornly overlapping on the monitor like they couldn't be bothered to take turns. His palm was warm, calloused from work, and it made something in my chest go soft and stupid every single time."Your children?""Yes. Why?""Nothing. It just sounded funny, that's all. Like you did all the work.""Well, get used to it." He propped himself up on one elbow, the moonlight catching that lopsided grin that had gotten me into this mess in the

Chapter: CHAPTER 118: Borrowed WarmthScarlett's POVMy mother's voice arrived a half second before she did, bright and unaware of everything simmering beneath the surface of the evening."Ezra, my dear." She smiled at him with the easy warmth she extended to guests, oblivious to what her hospitality was actually housing. "The room is ready for you. Would you like white or red wine sent up?"Ezra rose immediately, the transformation instant and seamless, the careful, cold thing I'd glimpsed a moment ago folding itself away behind manners polished to a shine."Thank you very much, ma'am, but I'm done with alcohol for the night." He offered her a smile that looked, infuriatingly, completely sincere. "Sparkling water will be just fine. And thank you again for your hospitality. You've been more than generous.""You're more than welcome, my dear." My mother beamed at him the way she'd once beamed at me, and something in my chest twisted at the sight of it, at how easily he'd claimed a piece of her warmth that should have belon
