The grocery store was busy that afternoon, shoppers weaving through with carts piled high. In the candy section of the store, Luis’s little hand was wrapped tightly around Orion’s much larger one, her smile bright as she looked up at him.“Uncle Orion, can we get candy?” she chirped, her tiny voice carrying a mix of excitement and pleading.Orion chuckled softly, adjusting the shopping basket in his other hand. “If you call me uncle one more time, I might have to refuse ” he teased, his lips twitching with amusement.Luis giggled, tugging at him. "Then… Orion, take me! Pleaseeeeeee!"With a sigh that wasn’t truly a sigh, Orion scooped her up into his arms, carrying her toward the candy aisle. To anyone watching, he looked every inch the protective young father doting on his daughter.And people were watching.

After a few frantic hours of packing and boarding Damon’s private jet, they finally arrived in New York. The journey was silent, the weight of fear pressing down on both of them, neither willing to voice the worst of their thoughts.Now, outside the operating room, the red light above the doors burned mercilessly. Ivy sat on one of the hard chairs, her hands twisting together in her lap, her face pale. The silence of the hallway only made the waiting worse, every second dragging like an eternity.Damon stopped pacing when he noticed the sheen of tears in her eyes. His own chest was tight, but he crossed the space between them and crouched down in front of her."She’s going to be alright" he said firmly, though his voice was low and rough. He reached for her hands, pulling them apart gently, threading his fingers through hers. "Do you hear me, doll? We’ll get through this, she needs us both strong when those doors open"Ivy looked at him, her lashe

She immediately stood off her butt and went on her knees clamping her hands tightly together."Ronan please I am sorry I shouldn't have come in here please don't punish me " She cried and pleaded, fearing whatever punishment Ronan was intended to give her."You can't go unpunished Bianca " He said and walked out of the room leaving Bianca still kneeling on the ground.Before Bianca could think of what punishment Ronan could probably mean the secret room door began to shut with her inside it."No!! Ronan!! " She screamed and ran towards the door but it was too late and the door had shut with her inside.She started banging on the door shouting, crying, screaming and begging Ronan to let her out but her screams , pleas and cries only echoed inside the secret room because it was soundproof.Ronan stood in front of the wall with a smirk on his face."A few days in there without food or food should restart your empty skull "

DIAMOND'S MANSION ~ NAOMI'S ROOM Wrapped in a fluffy towel, Naomi padded into her massive closet, humming softly to herself. Drops of water trickled from her freshly washed hair as she sifted through her dresses.Her mind replayed the conversation between she and Aubrey last night, and she giggled, covering her mouth."She really thought she could scare me?" Naomi mumbled.She remembered the way Aubrey had told her yesterday to stay away from Matteo, making it clear she didn’t like her. Naomi had decided she wasn’t going to be gentle anymore. The only reason she had allowed Aubrey to speak to her so rudely the previous day was because she had felt guilty for causing Matteo harm. But when the guilt faded, she refused to let Aubrey talk to her like that again.She had looked her straight in the eye and said, (I’m not leaving Matteo. You don’t get to decide who deserves to be in his life and you certainly don’t get to decide for me)

Daniel’s nostrils flared as he glared at Orion, the protective stance making his blood boil. " Who are you...i don't even care just stay out of this, boy! This is between me and my wife!" Orion’s jaw tightened, but he didn’t move aside. Instead, he positioned himself closer to Leah’s bed, silently daring Daniel to make a wrong move.Leah, gathering her courage, looked Daniel in the eye. "You lost the right to call me your wife the day you raised your hands against me, the day you brought another woman into our home, the day your mother nearly killed me and you say still watching " The words sliced through the room, leaving Daniel speechless for a moment. His hands shook, his rage colliding with the fear of losing control.Daniel’s chest heaved, his voice still thundering. “I’m not signing anything! You hear me, Leah? Nothing!” He threw the papers to the floor, his fists balled in defiance.Orion stepped forward, picking them up calmly.

Aubrey stood in the doorway, her face twisted with rage and hurt, her eyes locked on Naomi like daggers.Naomi, however, remained composed, standing close to Matteo who was still oblivious to the silent tension between the two girls."Matteo who is this ?" Aubrey asked as she stormed further into the ward, her hands curling into fists at her sides."Aubrey, this is my friend Naomi," Matteo said quickly, his smile innocent. "Naomi, this is my friend Aubrey"Naomi offered a polite smile and extended her hand. "Hi, Aubrey"Aubrey didn’t move for a long, uncomfortable moment. Just as Naomi was about to lower her hand in embarrassment, Aubrey finally accepted it, squeezing firmly too firmly.The three of them spoke for a while, Matteo carrying most of the conversation, trying to keep things light. Naomi responded kindly, while Aubrey forced herself to join in, her tight smile never quite reaching her eyes.Eventually, Naomi r
