When Zander told me I would be going with him to his aunt’s funeral, the words stayed trapped behind my teeth.

No.

That was the first thing that rose inside me. Sharp and Immediate.

But it never made it past my mouth.

I had only nodded.

Because there was nothing else I could do.

Refusing would be wrong. Refusing would be strange. Refusing would make him look at me longer than he already did. Ask questions he wasn’t asking yet.

So I nodded.

And now I was here.

Sitting in the car beside him.

  • BURNING BETRAYAL: My Mafia Professor.   Chapter 114

    The car ride was quiet.Uncle J sat beside me, going through a few things on his tablet. He mentioned names, numbers, dates—things I needed to remember. I listened, asked questions when I needed to, and kept my attention on him.It helped.Kept my mind from going somewhere else.By the time we got to the company, I was already focused.Staff were already moving around when we stepped in. Some greeted us. Some looked at me a second longer than necessary.I ignored it.We didn’t stop.We walked straight to the conference room.The executives were already seated when we entered. Conversations stopped immediately. Chairs shifted slightly as they adjusted themselves, all eyes moving toward me.I walked to the head of the table.My seat.I pulled it out and sat down without hesitation.Uncle J sat by my right-hand side.Files were already placed in front of everyone. Printed reports. Organized.I picked one up and opened it.“Let’s begin,” I said.No introductions.No unnecessary talk.One

    I woke up feeling lighter.The heaviness that had been sitting in my body for days was gone. My head didn’t ache. My nose wasn’t completely clear, but it wasn’t bad enough to slow me down.I stayed on the bed for a few seconds, staring at the ceiling.Then it came back.Not the sickness.Him.The memory didn’t ease in slowly. It hit all at once.His hand on my face.His breath against my lips.The way his voice dropped—“I’m dying to take you right now.”My fingers curled slightly into the sheets.Then—The kitchen.The way he walked past me like I didn’t exist.My jaw tightened immediately.I turned my head slightly, staring at the wall now instead of the ceiling.Really?That’s what we were doing?My chest felt tight again, but this time it wasn’t confusion. It wasn’t that overwhelming pull from yesterday.It was irritation.He stood in front of me like that… said all those things… looked at me like—And then what?Nothing?He just… walked away?And then ignored me?My lips pressed

    I looked down at the mug still in my hand and brought it back to my lips. The tea had gone from hot to warm, but I didn’t care. I drank slowly at first, then faster, until I finished it in one go. The warmth slid down my throat, settling in my chest, but it didn’t do anything for the rest of me.I set the mug down quietly.For a moment, I just sat there in silence. But my mind wasn’t.His voice replayed, clear and sharp like he was still standing in front of me.“I’m dying to take you right now.”My fingers curled slightly against the bed.“I’ve reached my limits.”My stomach twisted.I pressed my lips together, inhaling slowly through my nose like that would somehow steady me. It didn’t. If anything, it made everything more real.I reached for my phone on the nightstand and unlocked it, the screen lighting up instantly. Notifications were still there. Messages. Headlines. Everything waiting.My thumb hovered for a second.Then I stopped.I didn’t want to see it.Not now.I lifted my

    I reached my room and closed the door behind me, the soft click settling something in my chest that I didn’t realize had been tight since I left the conference room.The quiet felt different now.Not heavy. I stood there for a second, then exhaled slowly. A dull ache pressed behind my eyes again, not as bad as before, but enough to remind me my body hadn’t fully caught up with everything I had just done.I dropped my bag on the bed without much thought and moved straight to my closet. The fabric of my blazer suddenly felt too tight, too structured, like I had been holding myself together inside it for too long.I pulled it off, then the rest, piece by piece, until I was free of it.By the time I stepped into the bathroom, I didn’t think about anything else.I turned on the shower and stepped under it.Hot water poured over my skin, running down slowly, soaking into me. My shoulders loosened almost immediately. I tilted my head forward, letting it hit the back of my neck, the warmth s

    The car door closed, and for a moment, everything went almost quiet.The noise was still there, faint now, like something left behind. The flashes, the voices, the questions—they hadn’t disappeared. They just weren’t in front of me anymore.I leaned back slightly against the seat, my fingers still wrapped around my bag. I hadn’t realized how tight my grip was until now. My hand loosened slowly, the tension easing out of it little by little.I let out a small breath.Uncle J sat beside me, calm as always, his posture unchanged like nothing had happened.“You handled that well,” he said.I nodded once. “I said what needed to be said.”He didn’t respond to that. He just gave a small nod, like that was enough.The car moved smoothly, pulling away from the building. I turned my head slightly toward the window, watching the outside blur past. My reflection stared back faintly against the glass.Composed.That’s what they saw.My phone buzzed in my hand.Once.Then again.Then continuously.

    The car slowed to a stop before I even saw the crowd.I knew they were there.I could hear it first—the distant noise, voices overlapping, the sharp bursts of camera shutters cutting through everything else. My fingers tightened slightly around the handle of my bag as the car came to a complete halt.I took a breath.Just one.Then the door opened.The noise hit immediately.“Emery!”“Over here!”“Is it true—”Flashes went off one after the other, bright enough to sting. For a second, it felt like everything was moving too fast, but I forced myself to stay still as I stepped out of the car.I didn’t look at them.I didn’t respond.I walked.The bodyguard moved ahead, creating space, while Uncle J stayed close beside me. The voices followed us, louder now, sharper.“Are you still involved with him?”“Is the scandal real?”“What is your relationship with him?”I kept walking.The doors opened, and the moment I stepped inside, the noise dropped behind me like it had been cut off complete

    “Sir—”He stopped abruptly when he noticed me standing there.Then he turned back to Zander urgently.“There’s a man outside forcing his way through the gate.”The words barely settled in the air before heavy footsteps echoed from the entrance.A moment later, Uncle J pushed past the security guard

    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

    He released my hands.Relief crashed through me so suddenly it almost hurt. Pins and needles spread through my fingers as blood rushed back into them, and for a second I couldn’t even move them properly. My wrists throbbed where he’d held them, the skin warm and sensitive. I flexed my fingers slowl

    Morning came too quickly.I hadn’t slept.Not really.I had closed my eyes sometime after midnight, but my mind never stopped moving. Every time I drifted close to sleep, I saw the sketches again. The folder name sitting at the top of the screen like a verdict.**Missing child.**By the time sunlig
