FIVE MONTHS LATER.

It's been months since Zander claimed me in public and the internet was still talking about us.

Everywhere I looked, there were pictures.

Videos.

Edits.

Headlines.

Zander kissing me in front of the company building had somehow become the biggest topic online.

I sat on the couch scrolling through my phone while Zander sat beside me with one arm stretched across the backrest behind me.

“People are insane,” I muttered.

  • BURNING BETRAYAL: My Mafia Professor.   Epilogue

    The wedding was small.Private.Exactly how we wanted it.No reporters.No media.No public announcement.Just family.People who mattered.I stood in front of the mirror while the stylist adjusted the final details of my dress.My heart wouldn’t calm down.“Are you nervous?” Uncle J asked softly from behind me.I looked at him through the mirror.His eyes already looked emotional.That alone almost made me cry again.“A little,” I admitted.He smiled softly before walking closer.“Your mother would’ve been proud of you.”My throat tightened immediately.Before I could respond, the doors opened.Luca peeked his head in dramatically.“He looks like he might kill somebody if this wedding doesn’t start in five minutes.”A laugh escaped me instantly.“That’s my cue to leave,” Uncle J muttered.The moment I walked down the aisle—Zander stared at me like the rest of the world had stopped existing.And honestly?That look alone nearly destroyed me.He looked painfully handsome in black.But

    FIVE MONTHS LATER. It's been months since Zander claimed me in public and the internet was still talking about us. Everywhere I looked, there were pictures. Videos. Edits. Headlines. Zander kissing me in front of the company building had somehow become the biggest topic online. I sat on the couch scrolling through my phone while Zander sat beside me with one arm stretched across the backrest behind me. “People are insane,” I muttered. One post had over three million views already. Another headline read: UNDERWORLD KING CLAIMS BUSINESS HEIRESS PUBLICLY. I almost rolled my eyes. Zander took the phone from my hand casually before tossing it onto the couch. “You’ve read enough.” I looked at him. “People are making edits of us.” “That sounds like their problem.” A laugh slipped out of me before I could stop it. His eyes stayed on me for a second longer than necessary. Soft. Still intense. But softer now. I still wasn’t fully used to it. The Zander sitting beside me no

    I rushed out of the boardroom so fast that my chair nearly pushed back. “Miss Kingsley—” I ignored the voice behind me completely. My jacket slipped off one shoulder as I walked quickly down the hallway, my heels hitting hard against the marble floor. My heartbeat was so loud that it drowned everything else. Zander. Oh God. Please control yourself. He wouldn’t come here unless he saw the news. Which meant he saw everything. The protests. The reporters. The egg. My stomach twisted painfully. I pressed the elevator button repeatedly, my breathing uneven as I waited for the doors to open. Come on. Come on. The seconds felt too slow. My fingers curled tightly at my sides as I counted silently in my head just to stop myself from panicking. One. Two. Three— The elevator doors finally opened. I stepped inside immediately and pressed the lobby button. My pulse refused to calm down during the ride down. I already knew how dangerous Zander could become when he was angry.

    I went to work the next day and finalized the business Zander transferred into my name. The board meeting went smoother than I expected. Once they saw the numbers tied to the business, nobody argued. A billion-dollar deal attached to our company would recover the losses we had taken over the years and push the company higher than before. Nobody said no. Nobody was stupid enough to. Later that evening, I transferred the Atlanta estate into Uncle J’s name. He argued about it for almost twenty minutes. Said he didn’t need it. Said I should keep it. But I made sure he accepted it. He had been there for me when nobody else was. He took care of me even when he didn’t have to. Giving him that estate still didn’t feel like enough. This morning, Zander kissed me before I left for work. The memory stayed in my head the entire drive. The way he held my waist before letting me go. The soft kiss against my forehead. The quiet “I miss you already.” My chest still felt w

    I couldn’t believe what he just said.He loves me?That couldn’t be true.I remembered when I asked him if he had feelings for me, and he said he doesn’t fall in love.And now?What changed?“And I don’t want us to be this anymore,” he said, holding my hands.“I want us to be together for real. In a real relationship.”My heart pounded hard against my chest.“I want to be yours fully,” he added.Something soft melted inside me.Was he really saying all this… or was I dreaming?Before I could even process it, he leaned in and kissed me.“Will you be my girlfriend?” he asked against my lips.I kissed him back, and a low sound rumbled in his chest as he pulled me closer.Our lips collided again, stealing the air from my lungs.The kiss deepened.He pulled me onto his lap, our bodies pressing together. Our foreheads touched, my hands wrapped around his neck.“I want to hear you say it,” he whispered. “Please.”The look in his eyes—That yearning—It did something to me.I cupped his cheek

    By the time we got home, I was already exhausted.Uncle J and I walked into the mansion, and the aroma of food hit us immediately.I paused.Uncle J looked at me, and I looked back at him.Then we both walked toward the kitchen.Zander stood there in an apron, stirring something in a pot like he had been doing it his whole life.He looked up when he heard us. His face lit up instantly.“You’re back.”Uncle J blinked, clearly caught off guard. “You’re cooking? Without Luca’s help?”Zander’s eyes shifted to me. “I thought it would be nice if I made dinner,” he said, a small smirk forming, “since Remi must have had a stressful day.”I almost laughed, but I held it back. “I had a stressful day,” I said softly, almost teasing.Our eyes stayed on each other.Uncle J looked between us, his expression turning into something unreadable before he sighed. “I can’t stand this madness.”He walked away.And just like that, it was quiet again.Zander moved toward me.When he got close, he didn’t hes

    The sobs didn’t stop.They kept coming in waves, tearing through my chest until breathing itself felt painful. My fingers pressed hard against the cold marble floor, as if the ground was the only thing keeping me from completely falling apart.Everything felt distant. Blurred.My tears dripped onto

    I woke up to silence.My eyes fluttered open slowly, my body sore in places I didn’t want to think about yet. The sheets were cool beside me.Empty.My heart skipped as awareness rushed in all at once.This wasn’t my room.The ceiling was too high. The bed too large. The smell in the air—dark, clea

    The moment I stepped into the hall, the noise died.Every head turned. Every whisper paused mid-breath.It felt like walking into a spotlight I hadn’t asked for, my skin prickling as eyes tracked every step I took. I kept my gaze low, my fingers curling into the strap of my bag as I moved forward,

    Without warning, he swept me off the table and carried me in his arms.My breath hitched as his arms locked around me, strong and unyielding. One hand supported my back, the other firm beneath my thighs. His eyes never left mine as he started up the stairs, each step slow, deliberate, like he wasn’
