Chapter: Epilogue Alpha Alexander’s POV Ten years later. Her smile lit up the room, a beacon of warmth that drew me in like a moth to a flame. I watched her move gracefully, every motion sending a surge of electricity through my veins. When she stretched against me, her body arched with a sensual grace that left me breathless. I buried my face in her hair, inhaling deeply, savoring the intoxicating scent that enveloped me. Her laughter was music to my ears, a sweet melody that echoed in the depths of my soul. "I need to send a thank-you note to the company that makes my shampoo," she teased. "It's not your shampoo that smells so good," Maximillian replied, his voice husky with desire. "It's you. You're delicious." He pressed his lips to hers while I pressed my lips against her neck, trailing soft kisses along her skin, reveling in the taste of her. Her fingers tangled in both our hair, pulling us closer. Our lips met in a slow, tend

Chapter: 168 Vanessa’s POV The room was filled with the steady beeping of monitors and the soft hum of medical equipment. I lay on the hospital bed, sweat trickling down my forehead, every muscle in my body tense with the effort of bringing new life into the world. Beside me, Alexander and Maximillian held my hands tightly, their presence a steadfast anchor amidst the whirlwind of labor pains. "You're doing amazing," they murmured, their voice a soothing balm to my frayed nerves. "We right here with you." I focused on both their eyes, drawing strength from the love and determination shining within them. With each contraction, I pushed with all my might, the pain intense but the promise of our child pushing me forward. Time seemed to blur, each moment stretching on endlessly and yet passing in the blink of an eye. Through the haze, the doctor's voice broke through, cutting through my exhaustion. "I can see the head. One more big push, Vanessa. You're almost there." Summoning every

Chapter: 167 Third Person POV After the intense emotions of the night subsided, Amelia and Edward found themselves entwined in each other's arms on the bed. Edward held her close, his warmth and steady heartbeat calming her in a way she hadn't felt in a long time. The connection between them was undeniable, and despite the confusion and complexities surrounding them, there was a profound sense of belonging when they were together. Edward whispered soothing words into her ear, his voice a gentle comfort to her frayed nerves. Gradually, Amelia's eyes grew heavy, and she drifted off to sleep, wrapped in his embrace. Edward watched over her for a while, his fingers tracing gentle patterns on her back, until he too surrendered to the embrace of slumber. They slept deeply, finding solace in each other's presence, their bodies and souls intertwined. With the first light of dawn peeking through the curtains, Edward stirred from his slumber. Gazing at Amelia, her features softened by sleep, Ed

Chapter: 166 Third Person POV Edward rises to his knees, swiftly unzipping his trousers and grasping his cock in his hand. Amelia’s eyes widen as she watches, her heart racing in anticipation. His shaft, thick and veined, stands proudly in his grip, the head swollen and glistening with desire. "That look on your face is quite the compliment," Edward growls, positioning himself between her parted thighs. He teases the head of his cock against her wet folds, eliciting a gasp from Amelia. "Condom?" she manages breathlessly. "I wasn't planning on this," Edward admits through clenched teeth, his gaze locked with hers. "There's still time to say no, Amelia." But Amelia is beyond rational thought, consumed by desire. "You’re clean?" she asks urgently. "Aye. I promise." "Then fuck me, Edward," she breathes, her voice filled with need. "Give me everything." His grin is feral as he plunges deep inside her with a powerful thrust. Amelia's mouth opens in a soundless cry as she takes h

Chapter: 165 Third person POV Delirious, Amelia's eyes rolled back in her head as she gasped, "What's happening?" Maybe she was drunk. "Your mate is pleasuring your gorgeous wet cunt, that's what," Edward growled, his voice dripping with lust. "Goddess! Edward!" she cried out, her body trembling. "Aye, lass. Say my name just like that when you come," he breathed, his accent thick and intoxicating. Pressing his hips against hers, Edward kissed a trail down her neck to her chest, then licked at her cleavage, dipping his tongue between her breasts. When she groaned again, he lightly bit down on the swell of one breast. "I need to taste every inch of you," he whispered, his voice dark and commanding. "I need to mark every perfect part of your skin. I want to take you completely, to hear you beg for more." He withdrew his fingers from her, lazily sliding them up and down through her soaked folds, spreading her wetness around. When he brushed against her clit, she jerked, her body aligh

Chapter: 164 Third person POV Edward pulled her against him with a force that left Amelia breathless. His kiss was hard and demanding at first, full of expectation and the anticipation of resistance. Instead of pulling away, she wrapped her arms around his shoulders and melted into him. As Edward felt her response, his kiss gentled. Holding her firmly in his arms, he swept his tongue against hers with a soft pressure that matched the tenderness of his lips. Within moments, Amelia was lost in the sensation, her fingers sliding into his hair. The silky strands slipped through her grip as she tugged, drawing him closer. She yearned for him to devour her completely. A deep sound of pleasure rumbled in Edward’s chest, causing Amelia to shiver. The kiss shifted from sweet to hungry and back again, leaving her feeling as if she were floating, flying, and falling all at once. His mouth was decadently lush, his taste delicious. Amelia disregarded the fact that they were surrounded by four hundr

Belonging to Lockhart
“Name your price,” he said, that arrogant smirk still intact.
“Do you want your job back?”
I didn’t hesitate. “Make me a director. Only then will I pretend to be your loving girlfriend.”
I thought he’d laugh. I didn’t expect him to say yes.
“Deal,” he replied, his gaze locking on mine.
“Just remember, Amaris Kennerly once you sign that contract, you belong to me.”
*****
I’ve always wondered if I was cursed from birth because the kind of bad luck that haunts me feels almost supernatural.
People call me a computer genius, but my real talent is something no one sees. They say I’m beautiful, yet I bury that behind oversized clothes and a mountain of insecurities.
After dumping my cheating boyfriend, the only steady thing left in my life was my soul-sucking job until I lost that too. And the man responsible? Theron Lockhart.——My high school bully didn’t just return, he returned as the new CEO of my company. And his first executive move? Firing me and my entire department, like history repeating itself in the cruelest way.
He didn’t recognize me, which should’ve felt like relief. But fate clearly wasn’t done toying with me.
One moment, he was rescuing me from a run-in with my ex. The next, a rumor had spread: I was his girlfriend. And then the tables turned because Theron needed to avoid a scandal, and I was his best option.

Chapter: 189 "Daddy!" Tamsin sprinted across the airport terminal, arms outstretched like wings. "Tammy!" Theron's laugh echoed as he caught her mid-run, sweeping her into his arms and twirling her around. Naturally, my daughter paid me no attention. The moment her father appeared, it was as if I had vanished into thin air her loyalty clearly switched. She clung to him like a baby kangaroos, little arms fastened tightly around his neck as he walked toward me. "I missed you," he murmured, dipping his head to kiss me softly. "I missed you too," I whispered back. For the rest of the evening and long into the hour after dinner Tamsin remained attached to her father, recounting every moment of his absence with animated gestures and endless excitement. Not surprisingly, she left out the incident involving a bottle of pink glitter and Sunniva’s hair. The heartwarming Daddy-you’re-my-whole-world phase ended the instant Renzo and Seren arrived. "Uncle Renzo!" she squealed, launching hers

Chapter: 188 FIVE YEARS LATER Chun Kit, Zinnia, and Isabelle had faded into nothing more than bad memories. Pan Lei had been swiftly tried and sentenced, followed by Zinnia and Isabelle six months later. The remnants of Chun Kit’s network his army, his allies were tracked down one after the other. Special Agent Verrill had made sure they all met justice. And then, as if the world sensed the danger had finally passed, Tamsin was born. Our beautiful daughter arrived a day after the last trial concluded. The life I once knew riddled with fear and haunted by nightmares had grown nearly idyllic. There was rebuilding to do, of course, in more ways than one. But Theron and I had managed to piece it all back together. I never returned to Lockhart Digital. A year after stepping away, the company merged with Manny’s, giving rise to Lockhart & Holleran Interactive. Theron and Renzo restructured the Lockhart Consortium, turning it into an even greater empire twice as lucrative as before. They had bo

Chapter: 187 AMARIS POV Theron hadn’t taken my decision well. He’d spent hours trying to talk me out of it, but I’d already made peace with what needed to be done. There was no other way to end this. Since my primary physician had outright refused to discharge me, my team relocated into my hospital room, setting up computers and equipment around the bed. Theron brought me a laptop tray so I could work while lying down. Technically, I wasn’t violating doctor's orders at least not completely. In just two days, we’d expanded Panora’s reach by over fifty new sites, focusing on private airstrips, marinas, and train terminals. One by one, we tapped into any traffic camera within range. With each feed added, Panora’s network stretched farther, tightening the net. Still, it wasn’t enough to find Chun Kit. "Zhenhai should be helping us hunt his old boss," Romilly muttered, her eyes fixed on her monitor. I exhaled slowly. “Zhenhai’s done enough. He took his mother and left. They deserve a chance t

Chapter: 186 AMARIS POV He came for me. He found me. I remembered his lips pressing gently to mine. I remembered the faint curve of a smile softening his face. I remembered my voice breaking, the tears that spilled part grief, part laughter. Then everything blurred. His voice began to fade, swallowed by the haze. I must have passed out soon after. Waking was not gentle. The first thing I felt was pain radiating, shifting, persistent. But strangely, it didn’t overwhelm me. Maybe it was the medication running through my veins, or maybe it was something deeper. A sense of safety. Despite everything, my lips lifted faintly as my eyes fluttered open. I was tucked into a hospital bed, wrapped in clean sheets. An IV line fed into my arm, likely dulling the worst of the pain. But none of that none of the sterile safety warmed me. It was him. Theron sat at my bedside, his hand cradling mine in his. His head was resting beside our joined hands, eyes closed in uneasy sleep. I stirred, rising

Chapter: 185 Three Hours Earlier After meticulously comparing the coordinates with the architectural plans Manny had uncovered, we pressed deeper into the forest, following Zhenhai’s instructions step by step. We scaled a narrow hill and then we saw it. A ten-foot-high fence, coiled with barbed wire, loomed ahead. Watchtowers framed its corners like sentinels from a nightmare. “Son of a bitch,” Renzo muttered, stunned by the sight. His eyes swept across the fortified compound. “I’ve seen maximum-security prisons with less protection.” My mouth tightened into a hard line. “Well, at least now we know the tunnels are our only way in.” I reached out to Lazaro and the teams combing the other areas, updating them on our find. Then I glanced at my watch and nausea coiled in my gut. We had less than twenty minutes left. And that was only if Chun Kit played by his own rules. A sick part of me knew better. He could kill Ami any second before that. Panic clawed through my chest. I had to g

Chapter: 184 Three Hours Earlier The Radiant App Ami’s masterpiece was gone. Erased. Obliterated. Chun Kit must have gotten desperate. Desperate enough to force some poor bastard into breaching the system, no matter the cost. According to Romilly and Rex, the hacker had infiltrated through a tiny device planted inside the server room. Which could only mean one thing someone from Chun Kit’s syndicate had managed to break into Lockhart Digital. A fire lit in my chest. I made a mental note to fire the head of security the moment this was over. It could’ve been catastrophic. A full-scale disaster. I didn’t even want to imagine the kind of carnage a leak of that magnitude could’ve caused. But Ami had prepared for it. She’d designed a failsafe for the worst-case scenario. She’d sacrificed her greatest achievement. And in doing so, she saved the entire company. I loved her for that. For more reasons than I could count. And for some I still couldn’t even remember. But I would. Once she was b
