After The Divorce: Ex-Husband Regrets And Begs Me The Detective and the Sniper
DAMON'S POV:"I am both. I am a detective, a sister, and a woman who spent five years trying to destroy the men who threatened her family."She paused, inhaling deeply to calm her shaking hands, letting out a long breath that seemed to carry years of built-up tension away from her chest."And now I am just tired. I am tired of hiding in the shadows. I am tired of lying to the people I care about. I am tired of being afraid of what comes next."I looked at her with a completely new level of respect and awe. Then, a grim and sudden realization hit me hard in the chest. I thought back to my own past as a sniper, and why the Black Hand had such a deeply personal vendetta against me specifically."I know why they hate me," I said quietly, the words tasting like ash in my mouth. "I know what I did to cross them so badly."Serena blinked in surprise, tilting her head slightly to the side. "You know why?""I did a contract for them years ago, long before I walked away from that violent

DAMON'S POV:She was quiet for a moment. Then she spoke again, her voice softer now."You want to know why they hate me? Why they hate you? Why they are coming for us?"I did not answer. I just waited."It started with a job," she said. "Five years ago. They contacted me. Not as a spy. As a police officer. They wanted me to do something for them. Something illegal. Something that would have destroyed everything I had worked for."I looked at her. "You were a police officer?""I was. Before all of this. Before I went undercover. I was a detective. I worked for the homicide department for six years. I was good at my job, I was respected and I was proud of what I did."She paused. She looked down at her hands."I had a life. A real life. I had a career. I had colleagues who respected me. I had a future. And then they came to me.""Who came to you?""The Black Hand. They approached me in my office. They told me that they knew who I was. They told me that they knew my family. They told me
After The Divorce: Ex-Husband Regrets And Begs Me The Beginning of Our War
DAMON'S POV:I could not sit still.I stood up from my desk and walked to the window, then back to the desk, then to the window again. The study suddenly felt too small, the walls pressing in on me, the air too thick to breathe. My hands were clenched at my sides, my jaw tight enough to crack my own teeth. I could feel the anger moving through me like something alive, something that had been sleeping for years and had just been woken up without warning.The Black Hand.I had spent years building walls between myself and that world. Years of walking away from the darkness I had once lived in. Years of telling myself that I was done, that I was out, that I would never go back.And now it had followed me home.Not to me. That I could have handled. If they had come for me, I would have met them at the door with a gun in my hand and no hesitation. But they were not coming for me. They knew better than that. They knew that the fastest way to break a man like me was not to hit him directly.
After The Divorce: Ex-Husband Regrets And Begs Me The Sniper's Most Dangerous Enemy
SERENA'S POV:"They came for me," I continued. "Three of them. They ambushed me right inside my apartment. They had guns. They had knives and the type of ruthless training that only came from years of professional killing."I paused, closing my eyes for a brief moment. I took a shaky breath. The memories were flooding back now, sharp and painful and impossible to ignore."I was coming home from work. It was late at night. The streets outside were completely quiet. I had my keys in my hand, my bag on my shoulder, and my mind on the next day's tasks. I did not see them coming. I did not hear them approaching. They were just there, waiting for me in the hallway."I closed my eyes tighter. The memories were so vivid that it felt like I was living through them all over again."The first one grabbed me from behind. He put his hand over my mouth so I could not scream out. The second one snatched my bag away. The third one just stood there, watching me with a smile on his face that made
After The Divorce: Ex-Husband Regrets And Begs Me Her Cover Is Blown
DAMON'S POV:The Black Hand. I knew that name far too well. I knew it from my old days in the military, from the shadowy corners of the world where I had once operated as a sniper. They were a shadow organization, a ruthless network of criminals and mercenaries and assassins that operated in the remotest corners of the globe. They had no borders, no loyalties, and no morals whatsoever. They killed for money, for power, and for the sheer pleasure of destruction.I had seen what they did to people who crossed their path. I had seen the bodies left behind. I had seen the ruined families. I had seen the aftermath of their work, the kind of devastation that left nothing behind but grief and ash.And they knew about my family.My face went completely pale, and a cold sweat broke out along the back of my neck.*SERENA'S POV:*I watched the color drain from my brother's face.I watched his hands clench into tight fists on top of the desk. I watched his jaw tighten, his eyes narrow, h

SERENA'S POVThe words had been sitting in my throat for days.The ticking of the grandfather clock down the hall seemed to count down the seconds of our borrowed peace. I stood there with my fingers gripping the edge of the doorframe, feeling the cool air of the hallway brush against my skin. Every time I looked at Damon, every time I saw the way he smiled at Isabelle, every time I watched him hold Athena in his arms with that look of absolute wonder on his face, the words had risen up and threatened to spill out. And every time, I had swallowed them back down. I had told myself that I needed more time. I had told myself that I needed to be sure. I had told myself that I could protect them without them ever knowing the truth.But I had run out of time.I stood in the doorway of Damon's study, watching him work. He was sitting at his desk, his head bent over a stack of papers, his brow furrowed in concentration but he looked safe like a man who had finally found his place in the
